Chapter 1845 - 1848: The Warned Baihua Palace Master
"You really see a horse's strength over a long journey, and a person's heart over a long time!" Just as the four young artists, Ji Liangchuan, and many alchemists were arguing, the enchanting and mature Baihua Palace Master, Weisheng Zhimei, smiled at the entrance of the exhibition hall and said to the Integrity Giant, Bai Shiyi, who blocked her way:"I originally thought that you, Bai Shiyi, although a black merchant so dark that you couldn't be found without grinning in a coal pile, at least wouldn't harm your offspring. After all, Shen Qiang and your Bai Jiao are an enviable couple."
"Oh ho ho." Weisheng Zhimei sneered indifferently and mockingly: "But I didn't expect that not only would Pan Zheng go to great lengths to unite the Thirty-two Skillful Hands against Shen Qiang, but the Kunlun Sword Sect Leader would also block Shen Qiang from doing business."
"In such a situation, shouldn't any man with some backbone stand up?" Weisheng Zhimei raised her eyebrows and smiled charmingly: "Tsk tsk, yet it's unthinkable that the Integrity Giant is hiding outside the exhibition hall. Aren't you afraid that a leaf might fall and hit your head?"
Upon hearing this, the procurement manager responsible for Wanxin Hesheng lowered his head and chuckled.
Bai Shiyi, however, looked seriously and somewhat helplessly at the beautiful and mature Weisheng Zhimei and said, "If you're done mocking, I think you should listen to what I have to say next."
Weisheng Zhimei coquettishly feigned amusement: "Oh~ as the white boss of Integrity, who would dare not listen to what you say?"
Bai Shiyi was at a loss.
And at that moment, the smile on Weisheng Zhimei's face suddenly vanished, and she sneered coldly: "But I must keep my distance from you because I'm afraid that when you're struck by the Five Thunders from heaven, I might be implicated."
Upon hearing this, the Wanxin Hesheng procurement manager laughed with his face scrunched up.
Bai Shiyi, slightly embarrassed, looked at Weisheng Zhimei, who was about to turn and leave, and said, "Palace Master, wait a moment. Among the future children of Shen Qiang and Bai Jiao, one will inherit the Integrity Lineage."
"What's that got to do with me?" Weisheng Zhimei rolled her eyes unceremoniously at him, showing no intention of stopping.
Seeing this, Bai Shiyi said helplessly, "You wore a wedding dress similar to Bai Jiao's. Why don't you believe I won't harm Shen Qiang?"
Upon hearing this.
The Baihua Palace Master stopped in her tracks, turned back, and stared coldly at Bai Shiyi, saying, "I hate being threatened the most, and those who do will suffer retribution, so Bai Shiyi, I advise you not to play with fire."
Looking at the aggressive and maturely beautiful Weisheng Zhimei, Bai Shiyi raised an eyebrow and said, "Do you know what the key to growth is?"
Seeing Weisheng Zhimei watching him warily, Bai Shiyi had to answer his own question: "Experience. It's unrelated to time or age. A three-year-old who experiences something will understand it. But if they never experience it, even if they live to a hundred, they won't get it."
"And what is the scariest thing in the Cultivation World?" Bai Shiyi raised an eyebrow to his own question and answered, "The human heart! I have many ways to sell goods, but when it comes to reading human hearts, I have no solutions."
Watching the somewhat relaxed expression of Weisheng Zhimei, Bai Shiyi continued: "I know you intend to place an order with Shen Qiang, to humiliate the Kunlun Sword Sect Leader and perhaps even connect with some other sects."
"I can do that too, and I'll do it even better because I know Shen Qiang's Elixir Pills are the best. There's no way an order from Integrity Lineage would lose money, so I could casually give him an order worth over ten billion, and if necessary, I could even give him a thirty billion order right now."
Weisheng Zhimei smiled and said, "Then go for it; is there a point in saying this to me?"
Bai Shiyi smiled: "And then? What happens next? Wanxin Hesheng, Integrity Lineage, along with Baihua Palace, and connecting with other sects, we could mock the Kunlun Sword Sect Leader to the point they can't stay here."
Seriously looking at the Baihua Palace Master, Bai Shiyi asked: "But then what? What's next?"
Weisheng Zhimei frowned: "What else is there? We just need to support Shen Qiang and mock the Kunlun Sword Sect, that's enough!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Shiyi laughed: "Palace Master Weisheng, forgive my frankness, but you haven't experienced much in life. As the Baihua Palace Master, you're held in high esteem everywhere you go because people, upon hearing your name, think of the immense power that countless Baihua Palace disciples fought for over thousands of years!"
"But Shen Qiang is not." Bai Shiyi raised an eyebrow: "Mention Heshenghe, and no one thinks about how strong his sect is, how skilled his brothers are, how powerful the elders are, or how vast his network is. They think, oh, a small loose cultivator with a bunch of little demons."
Looking at the slightly frowning Weisheng Zhimei, Bai Shiyi smiled and said: "Because initially, that's what I thought. I believe others wouldn't be any different because people tend to be lenient with themselves and harsh with others."
"So when people need a sense of superiority, even a cultivator who hasn't reached the Nascent Soul Stage would dismiss Shen Qiang as a trickster, without considering that they themselves are worthless and not even comparable to Shen Qiang's toe hair."
Frowning, Weisheng Zhimei exclaimed: "Bai Shiyi, I don't understand what you're trying to tell me with these words."
Bai Shiyi smiled and said: "Baihua Palace, Integrity Lineage, Kunlun Sword Sect, Wanxin Hesheng, Long Chang, Maoshan Heavenly Master Sect, Dragon Group... these sects and organizations can command the Cultivation World not just because their people are powerful."
"But because they all inherited the prestige left by their ancestors!"
Bai Shiyi seriously looked at Weisheng Zhimei and said: "But Shen Qiang doesn't have such ancestors. He has to fight and strive on his own! Because he is the founder of Heshenghe, while we are merely the inheritors of our respective sects."
"Nonsense!" Weisheng Zhimei was about to leave.
Bai Shiyi raised an eyebrow and said: "Weisheng Zhimei, I remind you, when a child learns to walk, if an adult doesn't let go of their hand, they will never learn to walk; someone learning to ride a bicycle will never ride fast if someone is always holding them from behind. If you truly care for him, don't use your overflowing kindness to ruin him."
"I only know he's in trouble." Weisheng Zhimei raised her eyebrows coldly.
Bai Shiyi said coldly: "There are countless troubles every day in this world. Can you solve them all? Young people tasting hardship may not be a bad thing because you and I both understand that the greatest support in life is never others but oneself; therefore, in this matter, I hope to see Shen Qiang resolve it himself."
"Are you making excuses for yourself to stand by and watch, while also stopping others from helping?" Weisheng Zhimei frowned and exclaimed in surprise.
Bai Shiyi said coldly: "This is not a suggestion but a warning to you. Shen Qiang is no longer a baby; he's a formidable figure who should rightfully walk his own path. If you always hold him and never let go, he will never earn others' respect!"
