Hearing Kang Youquan's words, the young maiden Kang Luoying's eyes burned with intense determination. Not only did she clench her jade-like hands tightly, but her beautiful eyes also fixed firmly on the now silent Qingyun Sword. She silently said to herself, "Wait for me, I will definitely win you back!"

And just as the young maiden Kang Luoying made her resolve, the surrounding cultivators did not focus their attention on her. Instead, they all stood up, tiptoeing to glimpse the Jiazi Pills on Shen Qiang's table.

"Magnificent! Truly, as the King of Demons, even a single strand of leg hair is thicker than our waists. A legend that one pill can extend life by sixty years, and he casually offers ten!"

"At least two billion! If I had that much money, I couldn't spend it all in a lifetime."

"Alas, one has to admit, in terms of cultivation and combat power, Shen Qiang might not be the strongest yet, but in terms of extravagance, he is unparalleled in the cultivation world."

"Fortunately, the Baihua Palace's display explicitly forbids elixirs, otherwise, with just these Jiazi Pills, we couldn't compete."

The crowd looked at Shen Qiang in shock.

At this moment, at the entrance of the small auditorium, Baihua Palace's Master, with a voluptuous and beautiful figure, walked in. She cast a playful glance at Shen Qiang and laughed lightly, "Oh, Mr. Shen, you are indeed generous. These ten Jiazi Pills, just given away like that."

The crowd looked at her in astonishment.

Seeing her teasing eyes, Shen Qiang was inexplicably moved in his heart, and he followed up on her words, saying, "Giving away is impossible, unless that trash from the Qingyun Sword Pavilion can prove he's better than Kang Luoying. Otherwise, not only will they not get the pills, but they will also lose a Qingyun Sword."

The beautiful Baihua Palace Master chuckled, "Isn't it the same? They practice the same cultivation technique, their levels are comparable, and besides, Mr. Kang is in his thirties and has been cultivating for over twenty years. How could he lose to this young brat?"

Hearing this, Kang Luoying's complexion turned unsightly.

But Shen Qiang's eyes lit up because, at this moment, he could clearly feel that after hearing the Baihua Palace Master's words, Kang Youquan's eyes were filled with pride, and he puffed out his chest, looking arrogant, slightly floating.

Is she helping me?

Shen Qiang looked at her in surprise, his heart filled with inexplicable questions.

Upon hearing the beautiful Baihua Palace Master's words, the crowd began whispering among themselves.

"Indeed, the two are from the same origin, and their levels are equal. But one is a seasoned master and the other a newly-emerging genius. If they fight, I bet Kang Youquan will win, after all, he has practiced the Qingyun Sword Technique for over ten years, he can't possibly lose to Kang Luoying."

"Makes sense, the experience gap is too wide, with no advantage in levels, Kang Luoying can't possibly win."

"Hehe, I wonder where Shen Qiang's confidence comes from. If the Qingyun Sword Pavilion really agrees, Kang Luoying will surely lose, and Shen Qiang's ten Jiazi Pills will be as good as thrown into the water without a ripple."

The crowd's conversations were clearly audible to the Great Elder of the Qingyun Sword Pavilion.

In an instant, not only was Kang Youquan gearing up, but even the eyes of the Great Elder of the Qingyun Sword Pavilion were filled with excitement.

However, just when everyone thought the Qingyun Sword Pavilion would surely agree, surprisingly, the greedy Great Elder remained extremely cautious. He smiled coldly and said, "You can compete, but I don't care what Kang Luoying uses. Kang Youquan must use the Qingyun Sword, and if you're not afraid to lose, then come at us."

Upon hearing this, the crowd erupted into chaos.

"Gosh, these Qingyun Sword Pavilion people are really unscrupulous. Even when victory is assured, and they already have the upper hand, they still aren't satisfied, letting Kang Youquan, a notable cultivator, wield the supreme immortal artifact Qingyun Sword against Kang Luoying. It's outright bullying."

"Sure enough, there is no such thing as fairness in this world."

"Without any advantage, if Kang Youquan uses the supreme immortal artifact, then in his match against Kang Luoying, the outcome is predetermined. Kang Luoying stands no chance, which means Shen Qiang is essentially giving away ten Jiazi Pills to the Qingyun Sword Pavilion for nothing."

Amidst the crowd's astonished discussions.

With a calm smile, Shen Qiang, without hesitation, raised his eyebrows with a smile, saying, "No problem."

Kang Luoying, who was doubting whether the sword in her hand could counter the Qingyun Sword, heard this and looked at Shen Qiang with beautiful eyes full of astonishment, nervously saying, "Boss..."

"Don't be afraid, I believe in you. Even if you lose, it doesn't matter. As long as you did it, seriously and tried hard, even if you fail in the end, at least you won't regret it. Besides, as your boss, this is the best I can help you." Shen Qiang raised his eyebrows with a smile.

Kang Luoying looked at Shen Qiang with beautiful eyes full of shock.

Although it's just a simple reasoning, it filled her heart with warmth, as if her very blood was boiling in excitement.

Meanwhile, the surrounding cultivators were also looking at Shen Qiang with eyes full of shock.

"Casually tossing elixirs worth over two billion, sending a subordinate to pursue their dreams, indifferent to winning or losing, what a boldness! What a grandeur! Yes, this is the true King of Demons!"

"How bold! No excuses, no reasons, just for the sake of fulfilling the dreams of subordinates. With such capacity, no wonder, in just one year, Shen Qiang rose from an unknown loose cultivator to a dominant force."

"Sigh, look at that boss, standing up for his subordinates, casually tossing out two billion, without a frown, sigh... if it weren't for the sect rules, I really would prefer joining Heshenghe."

As the crowd was in shock simultaneously.

Beside them, the beautiful and voluptuous Baihua Palace Master, looking at Shen Qiang, couldn't help but have her eyes light up.

"Indeed, not disappointing for the boss of Heshenghe, with such grandeur, perhaps no one in the world can rival. Given time, certainly notorious. If only he were farther from our Baihua Palace, it would be worth befriending. Unfortunately, his Heshenghe is too close to our Baihua Palace. If he's not eliminated early, I won't sleep well."

Thinking this, at that time, she saw that the Great Elder of the Qingyun Sword Pavilion was still hesitant.

The beautiful Baihua Palace Master smiled slightly, saying, "Great Elder, why worry? Whether the Qingyun Sword is in Kang Youquan's hand or Kang Luoying's, it still belongs to the Qingyun Sword Pavilion. Now that Shen Qiang foolishly added ten Jiazi Pills, why not let them have a contest?"

"Win, the Qingyun Sword Pavilion gains the pills. Lose, and the Qingyun Sword merely changes disciples. This trade is surely a win-win situation."

Upon hearing this.

The crowd erupted into chaos again.

"Yes, Kang Youquan and Kang Luoying aren't just fellow disciples; more crucially, they're cousins. This way, whether they win or lose, the Qingyun Sword stays within the Qingyun Sword Pavilion!"

"Damn, it feels like Shen Qiang is really at a loss here."

"Shen Qiang is truly bold, and he really believes in Kang Luoying too much. If it were me, just for those ten pills, I'd surrender after a few slaps, hehe, just to earn the sect ten Jiazi Pills."
