Standing on the rock wall, looking at the already sealed cave entrance, the wild girl who had been silent for a long time turned around. Shen Qiang stood beside her, accompanying her in watching the Oasis Wilderness shrouded in a sea of clouds.

"My mentor named me Ye Guyun. And you? What's your name, how should I call you?" The wild girl's sudden normal question took Shen Qiang by slight surprise.

But as he gazed at the wilderness, enclosed in a sea of clouds, desolate, grand, and solemn, Shen Qiang's restless heart suddenly calmed, and he murmured, sighing: "Lonely cloud leaves the valley, leaving nothing behind, the clear mirror hangs in the air, silence and noise indifferent."

"A good name. Your mentor is truly a master. He knew long ago that this small oasis couldn't trap you. You will inevitably have a day when you leave here."

Turning his head, seeing the wild girl looking bewildered as if she didn't understand what Shen Qiang was saying, Shen Qiang smiled: "I'm Shen Qiang. You can call me by my full name or call me Boss."

The wild girl was silent.

Boss...

Old and ugly board?

How could anyone like such a name?

Her beautiful eyes filled with confusion, the wild girl seemed unable to understand, so she chose not to think about it and instead asked, "Where do you live?"

Shen Qiang laughed: "Nine hundred miles to the southeast."

Upon hearing this, the wild girl's beautiful eyes instantly lit up, her face inexplicably blushed, and she seriously and nervously asked, "Will you accompany me to see the sea?"

Shen Qiang laughed, looking at the wilderness shrouded in the sea of clouds, and sighed, "Aren't we already watching the sea?"

The wild girl was stunned.

Meanwhile, on the Oasis Wilderness.

Many cultivators were kneeling and wailing, crying with grief.

"This is outrageous, Shen Qiang is heartless! My ancestral flying sword, which is in his hands now, is a family heirloom, yet asking for it back, he won't even say a word to me, he refuses to give it, he wants to seize my family's treasure!"

"Simply ruthless!" A cultivator pointed angrily towards Shen Qiang and the Great Demon Qiongqi: "We fought to the death, gave it our all, and got nothing in the end! Everything was plundered, and it was all given to that Shen Qiang by the Great Demon, if he has any conscience, Shen Qiang should return those magical treasures to us!"

"Exactly, this bastard ignores us now, clearly unwilling to return them! But we are powerless."

At this moment, a cultivator jumped up, wiping tears from his eyes in righteous indignation and shouted, "Don't be afraid, Shen Qiang can't rule unchallenged, what is ours cannot be taken away, since he refuses to return it, don't be afraid, we'll go back now, post on the forums, let everyone know of his vile deeds, once everyone points fingers, I don't believe he dares not return them!"

"Yes, yes, there is justice in the world, he wants to double-cross us and grab our treasures for nothing, we must not agree!"

"Right, united we stand strong! Let's go, if he dares not return them, we'll ruin his reputation, make him a street rat in the cultivation world!"

"Yes, make him a street rat everyone condemns!"

With that, numerous cultivators left in righteous indignation, full of resentment.

Not far away, the hybrid beauty, Nalan Tianyu of the Undying Phoenix Clan, looked coldly and with contempt at those departing cultivators. The twin-tailed girl standing beside her said angrily, "What kind of people are these, no matter how kind you are to them, they take it for granted, but as soon as something displeases them, they wish for you to die."

"Chief, look, they were scared out of their wits before, if Shen Qiang hadn't saved them, they'd be corpses by now, yet now, they've turned around and decided he's guilty and must die, Mad, if the cultivation world is full of such scum, I'd rather be with demons!"

Hearing this, Nalan Tianyu cast a cool glance at Shen Qiang and the Great Demon Qiongqi on the cliff.

A charming, inexplicable smile appeared at the corner of her lips, and she softly said, "Exactly, that's why the Demon Taming Department is great."

Beside her, the face of the still somewhat sallow Qing Xie lit up with a smile: "I thought you would say Shen Qiang is great."

Upon hearing this, the gorgeous hybrid beauty Nalan Tianyu's face turned cold: "Whether Shen Qiang is great or not, that is my business, but as for you, Qing Xie, let's open up the windows and speak the truth, it was I who told you the whereabouts of this demon, leading to all this."

"You don't have to guess, I already know, all of this was planned by you, at least a hundred cultivators died because of it, you should be responsible! Yet I see you smiling, does your heart feel no guilt at all?"

Under the watchful gaze of many combat team members, Qing Xie smiled: "Nonsense, in this age where catching a couple red-handed requires them on the bed, without evidence, subjective assumptions are just rumors and slander."

Looking at Nalan Tianyu's clearly disdainful and contemptuous gaze, Qing Xie smiled indifferently: "Besides, leaving aside identity and position, from a personal standpoint, cultivators driven by greed are just a hazard, because they can't control their actions."

"So their deaths also eliminated some hazards, and after all, the current situation satisfies me, the treasures are all Shen Qiang's, and the Great Demon follows him, I…"

The hybrid beauty Nalan Tianyu interrupted coldly: "Qing Xie, don't try to show off in front of me, I know exactly who you are, after getting the Qiongqi's information from me, you intended to set up a trap to kill Shen Qiang, isn't that right?"

Upon hearing this, the other Dragon Group members became wary.

"Captain, is what she said true? Advisor Shen is akin to family to us, if you have such intentions, we will fall out with you."

Qing Xie laughed: "How could it be."

The stunning Nalan Tianyu stepped forward, her beautiful eyes seriously said: "Impossible? Then explain to me, why when removing an appendix, don't you take off any clothes, and why did the knife stab into the spleen?"

Everyone's eyes turned cold.

"Captain, you made a mistake, that's the only possibility, we're not fools, no need to argue."

Qing Xie laughed: "Alright, since you're persistent, I'll be honest, I thought Shen Qiang killed my brother initially, so I planned to eliminate him, later, my brother called me and I realized Shen Qiang was helping him, the misunderstanding was cleared, now I wish him a long life, if anyone wants to harm him, I'd be the first to take them down."

Upon hearing this, everyone was half-believing, half-doubting.

Meanwhile, the handsome Qing Xie looked at the hybrid beauty Nalan Tianyu with a smile and said: "Speaking of which, the chief always brags about not owing anyone favors, but now, without Shen Qiang, even if the Great Demon didn't kill you, you'd have died at that middle-aged man's hand."

"So perhaps it's time to repay that favor, in terms of Demon Suppression, Shen Qiang is much better than you, in terms of wealth, you're dirt poor compared to him, so now I think, if you don't want to owe Shen Qiang a favor, there's only one way left."

The exquisitely beautiful Nalan Tianyu furrowed her eyebrows: "What do you mean."

Qing Xie's eyes gleamed with excitement and he laughed: "Don't you understand? If you want to repay Shen Qiang's favor, just offer yourself to him!"
