The massive electric current descended like a waterfall, destroying the flying swords and defensive magical treasures released by the cultivators in almost an instant.
Bang!
Dust rose into the sky.
Wailing sounds echoed one after another.
Seeing this situation, a cold smile appeared on the corner of Qing Xie's mouth: "A bunch of self-righteous fools. If a group of disorganized people with a few shabby magical treasures could subdue this demon, how could it still exist until now?"
The twin-tailed girl was stunned; the anger on her pretty face vanished, and she said: "Serves them right. Didn't they think they could win? Even said they didn't need our help? They were like drowning people we were trying to rescue by rowing over to them, but they pushed us away. Humph, they brought it on themselves; they don't deserve any sympathy."
And almost at the same time they spoke.
The terrifying Great Demon Qiongqi, like lightning, charged into the camp of cultivators that had been dispersed by her massive electric current.
In almost an instant, cries of agony and desperation arose.
Meanwhile, Nie Yongsheng of the Kunlun Sword Sect, standing majestically in the air and wielding his sword, felt his scalp tingle because, under such circumstances, he didn't have the courage to strike at Qiongqi.
Because Qiongqi was too fast and could surely evade his sword intent.
But those cultivators could not.
If he struck, Qiongqi might not die, but the cultivators would surely perish.
Wouldn't that make him a traitor to his own team?
His gaze shifted, and Nie Yongsheng suddenly noticed that Shen Qiang and the others remained full of energy, and from the beginning until now, they had never been attacked by the demon.
"Is it because they had Shen Qiang's grilled lamb before, so they're not attacking them?" Nie Yongsheng thought, then shouted loudly, "Run! Escape to Shen Qiang's side! This fierce beast had Shen Qiang's grilled meat, so it won't attack Shen Qiang. You'll be safe by his side!"
Nie Yongsheng's loud shout was like a wake-up call, bringing light to the eyes of the howling crowd.
"Yes, we should have thought of this earlier! That fierce beast charged at Shen Qiang so fiercely before but didn't strike. As long as we go to Shen Qiang's side, we'll definitely survive!"
"Hurry, we understand now, this beast is like a dog; if you feed it, it won't bite you."
"To Shen Qiang's side, quick! Quick!"
"Shen Qiang, stop, don't go!"
A large group of cultivators, suddenly enlightened, rushed towards Shen Qiang, rolling and scrambling.
Calmly watching them diminish under the demon's pursuit,
Shen Qiang didn't even bat an eye.
After all, they were cultivators, and two hundred meters wasn't far. After several leaps, many disheveled and injured cultivators reached Shen Qiang's side.
At this moment, the pouncing Qiongqi happened to lock eyes with Shen Qiang, who stood there calmly watching her.
For some reason, her heart trembled inexplicably. Somehow, she let go of the cultivator who was supposed to die and then flew into the sky with a flap of her wings.
The cultivator who was scared stiff burst into tears. Seeing the Great Demon leave, another cultivator turned back and dragged him to a place not far from Shen Qiang.
As they watched, rolling and scrambling, utterly embarrassed and all injured, Qing Xie sneered.
"Truly shameless. We tried to help you before, and you were so mean-spirited and pulled swords on us, and now you're shifting back with tails between your legs. How can you do such things? Weren't you going to win for sure? Weren't you all going to be demon slaying heroes? Why are you running to Shen Gu's side?"
Hearing this, the twin-tailed girl adorably laughed and said: "Exactly, running at the first sign of danger and still wanting to be heroes. Just a moment ago, they were pointing at Shen Qiang, telling him to get lost, and now they're rushing over to cling to his legs? It's laughable."
Many cultivators were embarrassed.
Flushing with shame.
Then, the middle-aged man in his forties got angry: "Little girl, what do you know? Shut up. A man can be killed but not humiliated. I'm not afraid of that demon. I'm here to escort the wounded!"
Hearing this, the many cultivators present seemed to find a final fig leaf, and they immediately shouted.
"Exactly, we were definitely going to win, but we are chivalrous men. Seeing the wounded, how could we bear to watch them be harmed by that demon!"
"Exactly, exactly, we were only here to escort the wounded."
"Yeah, I'm injured, and they were escorting me."
Hearing the shameless words of the many cultivators, Qing Xie sneered.
"Once the wounded are delivered, go back and become demon slaying heroes. What are you standing here for, having wet your pants and feeling no shame?"
In an instant, the many cultivators were embarrassed, their faces flushed.
The middle-aged man in his forties said, "The wounded need treatment. Once we've treated them, we'll go back and kill that demon."
The twin-tailed girl curled her lips and sneered, "Shameless, obviously you have no courage."
The middle-aged man in his forties said righteously, "What do you understand? I have walked more bridges than you've walked roads, and I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice. In this lack of medicine and facilities, how can the wounded survive without care?"
In an instant, many cultivators clinging to Shen Qiang's side all said.
"Exactly, without care, they would die, wouldn't they?"
"Yes, saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-tiered pagoda. We regard fame as mere dirt. To save lives, what if we don't become demon slaying heroes?"
"Yeah, yeah, that's exactly right. We uphold chivalry and righteousness, with high integrity..."
"Shut up!" Shen Qiang, unable to listen any longer, calmly interrupted, "Don't put on indecent acts in front of me." With a wave of his hand, he threw dozens of bandages and hemostatic and pain-relief pills in front of the many cultivators, and said calmly, "We're all old foxes here, don't pretend. Here are the medicines. Go about your own business afterward and stop whining around me."
Having said that, Shen Qiang turned and led his people away.
The cultivators became anxious at that sight.
The middle-aged man in his forties, quick-witted, immediately stood up and said, "Shen Qiang, stop right there. I remember now, you're a doctor. Hahaha, come on, treat the wounded right away. You're a doctor, and saving people is your duty. If you dare not save people today, you're a scoundrel, you're a villain, you're a sinner. Come on, so many people are waiting for you to save them!"
Upon hearing these words.
Among the understanding many cultivators, some immediately lay down weakly.
"Oh, I'm in so much pain; I'm seriously injured and dying, and Shen Qiang wouldn't save me."
"Ouch, I feel dizzy."
"Oh, my leg, it might be broken. Doctor, come quickly."
"Stop calling; that scoundrel, villain who wouldn't save a dying person is impossible to manage for you, hmph, what kind of King of Demons, just some deceitful scoundrel."
Hearing this, Shen Qiang stopped, took a deep breath, then turned back calmly.
