Chapter 1815 - 1818: Shen Qiang, I Want You to Submit to Me as King!
"You're still too young." The Sea Demon King, whose True Essence far exceeded Shen Qiang's by dozens of times, calmly brought the blood-red spear in front of him and said, "For a millennium, you're the only creature that has made me feel fear.""I'm ashamed." The Sea Demon King, with his right arm now more than three times thicker, spoke with utmost seriousness, "I, the mighty Sea Demon King, have roamed the Cultivation World for thousands of years, yet I was startled back a hundred meters by you, Shen Qiang. This shame can only be washed away with blood."
At these words, Nalan Tianyu, the mixed-blood beauty being supported by Shen Qiang, was instantly stricken with terror. As the head of the Dragon Group's Demon Taming Department and possessing the bloodline of the Undying Phoenix Clan, she hadn't recognized the Sea Demon King before, but now her every pore stood on end just hearing it.
"The Sea Demon King Yu Jiang!" Her eyes filled with shock, her voice even trembling, "A near-god existence, on par with the Three Immortals of Changbai, the Snow Woman of Kunlun, and the Shennong Huangshen! You and Shen Qiang know each other already?"
In an instant, not only were all those present wide-eyed, but even the live streamed mobile screen at the Medicine King Inn was filled with speechless watchers.
"Of course." Responded the Sea Demon King, his eyes flashing fiercely, "He's the only cultivator daring enough to threaten me, so of course, I know him."
In a flash, the hearts of many cultivators present seemed to stop from tension.
"Shen Qiang threatened a Sea Demon?"
"The only cultivator bold enough to threaten a Sea Demon! Then we were wrong. Shen Qiang is no demon; he's a true cultivator!"
In the room, a fat man paused mid-sip of tea, then smiled, "Threatening a Sea Demon, this must be quite interesting. Why didn't I think of that? Suddenly, there's a bit of anticipation. Without Shen Qiang, the Cultivation World seems quite boring these days."
And just then, the fat man heard Shen Qiang's voice clearly.
"I told you long ago that there is no room for two tigers on one mountain. Fortunately, you live in the sea, so as long as you don't make trouble on my territory, I won't mind your existence! But you first provoked Heshenghe and now come here clashing weapons with me, do you really think I won't go to war with you?"
Instantly, the fat man's eyes brightened with apparent delight.
Meanwhile, the many cultivators present felt their hair stand on end.
"Such a domineering Shen Qiang! He dares to declare war on the Sea Demon King?"
"What a brave man, I've always thought Shen Qiang only dared to act arrogant in front of weak cultivators, I never imagined he'd be so audacious in front of the Sea Demon King. It seems he's quite low-key in his usual activities in the Cultivation World."
"Amazing! He dares to say such things in front of the Sea Demon King, truly, there's no one else like him!"
Everyone was shaken, yet to their surprise, the Sea Demon King did not laugh wildly as one would expect, but instead coldly brandished his blood-red spear.
Buzz!
A low-frequency sonic boom resounded silently, causing the ear drums of those present to vibrate, hearts feeling as if struck by a heavy blow.
Bang!
In the direction the Sea Demon King's blood-red spear pointed, at the foremountain of Medicine King Valley half a mile away, a massive hole appeared, large enough to fit two people, piercing the mountain entirely and stretching over several hundred meters.
Instantly, the many cultivators present were left speechless with shock.
Even the two elder-looking figures by the Medicine King Valley Master's side, with an Immortal Wind Bone demeanor, were dumbfounded, their eyes wide with awe.
"Truly worthy of being a near-god existence! The mountain's rocky body is extremely strong. An ordinary Harmonization stage cultivator couldn't create such terrifying damage so effortlessly!"
The tea-drinking fat man furrowed his brows. An elder beside him, seasoned, exclaimed, "The Sea Demon King Yu Jiang is indeed one of the world's exceptional strong fighters; such explosive force, only the Great Elder could compare, and perhaps the Third Master might still fall short."
The fat man nodded thoughtfully, then sneered, putting down his tea cup with a bored gesture, "A boring Cultivation World has finally produced someone interesting, but unfortunately, with Yu Jiang's strength, once he strikes, Shen Qiang will die, leaving no room for play."
"So..." The fat man stood, calmly turned, unbuttoning his wrist straps, and said, "Those who can't survive naturally aren't qualified to be my opponent."
The two people next to him nodded in agreement.
But just then, the voice of the Sea Demon King Yu Jiang, surprised them and everyone else, including the fat man himself.
"The most direct way to wash away shame is with an enemy's blood. But Shen Qiang, you angered me, so I've decided to give you an opportunity to make up for it."
The Sea Demon King, with icy eyes, glanced at Nalan Tianyu, who was standing intimately by Shen Qiang after being helped up by him, her white uniform sharp and pristine, bright and peerless, with a smirk of disdain on his lips, "It's simple, if you, Shen Qiang, agree to stay away from Nalan Tianyu from now on and willingly submit to me, I'll let you go."
With the blood-red spear crossed in front of him, the bald-headed Sea Demon King's gaze turned fierce and excited.
"If you refuse, I'll kill you on the spot and use you for soup!"
Instantly, there was silence all around the Medicine King Inn. Hundreds of cultivators, not daring to speak, barely breathed, for anyone could sense that the Sea Demon King Yu Jiang was dead serious.
"As long as the green mountains remain, there's no fear of running out of firewood. The Three Immortals of Changbai, the Snow Woman of Kunlun, Shennong Huangshen, the Sea Demon King, these giant demons, nearly godlike, are ultimately not of our kind, but Shen Qiang is different, he's a cultivator, an existence that can stand against them. Endure, plan, and bide your time. Once powerful, kill him later!"
The many cultivators who were formerly hostile towards Shen Qiang suddenly started feeling worried for him.
"A small forbearance prevents great catastrophe. This world has only men and women, as long as you're alive, there are plenty of beautiful ones to choose from later. For now, what's wrong with temporarily submitting? Once Shen Qiang gets powerful, he will be the true king!"
"Don't be reckless. The Cultivation World has continued for thousands of years, and finally, there's a cultivator who makes all the demons bow. If he dies now, what a waste!"
Simultaneously, Nalan Tianyu, in a dazzling white military uniform, her figure sleek, her face exquisite and unmatched, gazing admiringly at Shen Qiang, felt her heart tremble.
"The Sea Demon King Yu Jiang, famed for 4,000 years, while Shen Qiang has been cultivating for only a little over a year, it's impossible for him to win. This issue arose because of me; how can I let Shen Qiang risk his life?" she thought, her brows furrowing, instinctively intending to speak up.
But at that moment, to her surprise, the usually calm Shen Qiang suddenly stepped forward.
