Upon hearing Daoist Ma's words, Bai Shiyi's gaze turned icy as he strode out proudly. This was because when he heard that Ji Haiyang of the Long Chang had brought the ape craftsman here, Bai Shiyi was already acutely aware that these two important allies hadn't come to Bai Manor just to celebrate.
What they really wanted to do was test Shen Qiang's true strength, evaluate whether Heshenghe was as formidable as the rumors claimed, and ascertain whether Cheng Xinyi and Heshenghe were genuinely forming an alliance.
Because now, Shen Qiang was not an unknown figure, but the King of Demons, an advisor to the Dragon Group, and a big name in Heshenghe.
Among cultivators, there were not many who dared to underestimate Shen Qiang.
Especially Ji Haiyang. He was the Family Head of Long Chang; however, the most powerful Divine Weapon came from Heshenghe. He was the father of Ji Liangyuan and Ji Liangchuan, yet both their girlfriends were with Shen Qiang, and, oddly enough, Ji Liangchuan considered Shen Qiang his friend.
Therefore, Ji Haiyang's emotions when facing Shen Qiang should be quite complex.
From Ji Liangchuan's perspective, he should be on good terms with Shen Qiang, but from Long Chang's perspective, not only did Shen Qiang embarrass his two sons, but he also made the cultivation world believe Heshenghe had the ability to forge Divine Weapons stronger than Long Chang's.
Thus, he should trample Shen Qiang underfoot.
But whatever he does, it would involve the interests conflict between Long Chang and Heshenghe, and would be like a single move affecting the entire body.
But in Bai Manor, it's different. He is a guest; he can seize the opportunity to probe, simply getting to know Shen Qiang.
If Shen Qiang is strong enough, he naturally will have nothing to say and maybe even laughingly advise Ji Liangchuan to maintain good relations with Heshenghe.
But if he thinks Shen Qiang is mediocre and Heshenghe isn't that powerful either, then maybe when he turns around, he will take some actions against Shen Qiang, be it retaliation or attack, at least without further scruples.
At first, Bai Shiyi couldn't understand Daoist Ma's arrival, but now, upon hearing about the Copper Armor Flying Corpse, Bai Shiyi immediately understood. The Maoshan lineage, known as Heavenly Masters, survives on the skills of Demon Suppression. Now with the King of Demons being so illustrious, even without much thought, it would definitely affect the Heavenly Masters.
So this Daoist Ma, bringing the Copper Armor Flying Corpse here, likely harbors the intention of taking the opportunity to contend with Shen Qiang.
If Shen Qiang lacks sufficient strength, perhaps this Daoist Ma would rather offend Cheng Xinyi than not crush the King of Demons underfoot.
With a subtle smile at the corners of his mouth, Bai Shiyi calmly said, "Alright, since you already have plans, I naturally do not mind. However, today is a big day for Bai Manor, so please show some restraint and don't force me to be rude to you."
With that said, Bai Shiyi, without paying them any heed, led the way out of the Light Silks Magical Treasure tent.
At the same time, Bai Jiao, dressed in Red Robe, holding the old lady's jade hand tightly, looked up at the sky with eager eyes, exclaiming with immense excitement, "Grandma, look! He really comes riding the auspicious clouds to pick me up!"
And at this moment.
As Bai Shiyi, Daoist Ma, and Ji Haiyang walked out.
Two seemingly unremarkable middle-aged men unexpectedly stepped into the open grounds.
Immediately, under the astonished gaze of the crowd, they exuded a palpable, provocative powerful aura.
"So strong! This Cultivation seems almost at the Dao Fruit Stage!"
"So formidable, what are these two planning? They seem to be provoking!"
"Such strength, such terrifying pressure!"
Amidst the astonishment of the cultivators, the middle-aged man on the left let out a fierce roar, saying, "Yuan Craftsman of Long Chang is here, petty demons should retreat!"
Hearing his roar, the many cultivators present were instantly shocked.
"Yuan Craftsman of Long Chang, isn't he the legendary monkey spirit that helped Long Chang's founder forge weapons?"
"My goodness, it's actually still alive, it must be over a thousand years old!"
"Such formidable Long Chang, openly looking to crash the scene and give Shen Qiang a hard time, but they truly do have the strength!"
Amidst the crowd's shock.
The middle-aged man on the right, too, roared arrogantly, "Under the Heavenly Master, Maoshan's Copper Armor is here, intruders shall die!"
In an instant, the many cultivators present felt their hair stand on end.
"Copper Armor Flying Corpse! A terrifying Great Demon, has been a force in the cultivation world for at least five hundred years!"
"My God, even strong Dao Fruit Stage practitioners would avoid this Great Demon!"
"Too terrifying, if I weren't certain this is Bai Manor, they wouldn't mess around, I really would want to run away!"
Yet, as the many cultivators present looked in awe at the Yuan Craftsman of Long Chang and Maoshan's Copper Armor Corpse,
Bai Shiyi's eyes suddenly shone with brilliance.
"Shen Qiang, you are the man I have set my hopes on, you are the King of Demons, today is your wedding day, if you truly have the capability, then come! I, Bai Shiyi am not afraid of losing face, I'm just afraid of entrusting my daughter to the wrong person. Show your power! Let them see what a true King is, what kind of man deserves my daughter!"
Almost as Bai Shiyi shouted in his heart.
The numerous cultivators present were stunned to see, along with the provocation-filled aura of Yuan Craftsman and the Copper Armor Corpse, the Eagle Demon under Zuo Lianghao unexpectedly rose noticeably.
"Afraid! The Demon of Heshenghe is afraid!"
"Indeed, in front of such renowned major sects of the cultivation world, Heshenghe is nothing."
"Phew, it startled me, truly thought this Heshenghe could cover the skies with one hand, turns out it's not much after all?"
On everyone's faces appeared disdainful smiles, their eyes inexplicably filled with a sense of superiority as cultivators, but at that moment!
Bang!
A gigantic figure, like a bolt of lightning, suddenly landed in front of the brazenly provocatively posturing Yuan Craftsman and Copper Armor Corpse.
She was massive, like a majestic tiger.
Her gigantic wings seemed to cover the sky.
After landing, those cultivators who faced her directly inexplicably saw that this powerful creature resembling a tiger but with wings, had eyes filled with disdain and impatience.
Not only that.
What shocked everyone more was that even though it landed with lightning speed, the massive force not only shattered the colorful paving, but also made the earth tremble.
Yet the young man with bright eyes, standing steadily on its back, looking at Bai Jiao with a smile, appeared as stable as Mount Tai, as if the impact and inertia didn't exist, exuding an indescribable grace and confidence.
"Shen Qiang!"
"King of Demons!"
The numerous cultivators present widened their eyes, but before they could utter a word.
Roar!
The giant tiger under Shen Qiang suddenly roared, its sharp teeth glinting in the rising sun, the roar infused with an imperial majesty that made all the cultivators present realize in fright that it meant, move or die!
