"This must be what they call a 'pig teammate'."

The moment the petite Ali charged out with her cold, gleaming weapon, Shen Qiang could think of nothing else.

With the enemy's cultivation unknown, abilities unknown, numbers unknown, weapons unknown, even whether Ali with her normal human vision could clearly see how many enemies there were around her was a question mark.

In such a situation, launching a blind attack was simply courting death.

What's more, what made Shen Qiang uncomfortable was that although she meant well, she was acting arbitrarily without any consideration for Shen Qiang's feelings and thoughts.

At this time, Shen Qiang's cultivation was only at the Qi Condensation stage.

But Shen Qiang had the Plague Source, the evolved flu virus, Pneumococcus, and seven versions of the Spirit Corpse Golden Cicada!

He was truly invincible below the Nascent Soul Stage!

Even if he faced a cultivator in the Nascent Soul Stage, he absolutely had the capability to fight—a super Qi Condensation stage monster!

How strong could these enemies be?

It goes without saying that the Mixed Element Realm was out of the question, and if any of them possessed the power of the Yin God Realm, they were fully qualified to join forces with the Mixed Element Realm fugitive to jointly attack Qian Shanxue. Therefore, with a bit of thought, one could realize that although these encroaching people were numerous, they were merely minions, and the strongest among them would at most be in the Nascent Soul Stage.

Seven versions of the Spirit Corpse Golden Cicada, plus the virus.

As long as Ali stayed by Shen Qiang's side.

Shen Qiang didn't dare to promise that not a single hair on her head would be harmed, but ensuring her safety would be as easy as flipping his hand.

But now she had suddenly charged out.

It was as if, on one hand, he had prepared for her a fortress of steel, an armored vehicle, the strongest defense.

And yet, she charged out bare-armed, brandishing a kitchen knife.

The change of thought happened in an instant.

Although very helpless.

But Ali, this girl, whether she was really dumb or just too impulsive, had from the beginning always hoped to create an opportunity for Shen Qiang to escape, and given that she was not aware of Shen Qiang's abilities, instead of blaming and resenting her for not fighting, it was better to follow her immediately.

But as soon as he stood up.

Shen Qiang knew he was already too late.

Ali's cultivation had reached the late Golden Core Stage.

In the strictest sense, she was already a master.

At this moment, as she dashed forward with all her might, her speed was not something Shen Qiang could keep up with, even if he activated Wind Walk.

Boom!

Two shadows quickly launched a pincer attack.

The cold gleam in Ali's hand not only forged in an instant, but her entire person was also flung back like a punching bag.

The following Shen Qiang barely managed to catch her, only to see that she had already fallen unconscious, and blood frothed from her mouth and nose.

On top of that.

The Shen Qiang who caught her immediately felt upon touching that there were multiple fractures in her rib cage beneath her left breast.

In this situation, there was no need to think, Shen Qiang immediately determined that the broken ribs had pierced her lung lobes, and if urgent medical care wasn't provided at once, in this environment, she would definitely not last five minutes.

The Surgical Knife in his hand flashed with a silver gleam.

The sharp blade quickly cut open her clothes, snapped her bra, and her firm and white breasts sprang free.

Blood quickly surged from the precise white incision lines, and Shen Qiang, without any hesitation, began treating the wound on Ali's lungs.

All of this.

Happened in just a moment.

From catching Ali to performing the thoracotomy, the entire process took no more than three seconds.

The hollow was shrouded in darkness.

The man who had flung Ali laughed, "Yo, there's another one here, get him, and then we can leave, at least we'll have done justice to the boss."

"Yes!

"Right away!"

"Take him down!"

Seven or eight figures rushed towards Shen Qiang.

"Golden cicadas!"

Shen Qiang's eyebrows slightly raised.

Seven streaks of golden light instantly flew out.

The seven people who had rushed close to Shen Qiang immediately dropped like wooden stakes.

"Retreat quickly!"

"How is this possible!"

"Is this some sort of demon art?"

The remaining five people, standing about a dozen meters away from Shen Qiang, not only revealed various weapons but also vibrated their True Yuan cautiously on guard, using their True Qi to sense the seven golden cicadas circling in front of and around them.

"What is this thing?"

"A hidden weapon?"

"Is it a fly..."

The two leading the assault on Ali watched Shen Qiang's direction with grave expressions.

The foremost among them shouted harshly, "Everyone be careful, this must be Gu."

Upon hearing this.

The others breathed a sigh of relief.

The other leader took a step forward and said coldly, "I don't know who you are, but you're already dead; come out to me."

Crouched on the ground, performing surgery on Ali with nervous intent, Shen Qiang replied indifferently, "If you aren't afraid of dying, feel free to come at me anytime. I can clearly tell you, below the Nascent Soul Stage, touching my golden cicadas means immediate death. Above the Nascent Soul Stage, it's just a matter of struggling for a moment longer."

Hearing this.

The leader shouted, "Are you trying to scare us?"

"Whether I'm scaring you or not, you'll know if you try," Shen Qiang's reply came back remarkably indifferent.

Yet, the voice that filtered through the mask was not only very cold but also exuded an inexplicable sense of killing intent. Together with the seven people lying at various angles not far from Shen Qiang, it caused an involuntary shiver in the other five.

"Number Five, Number Five!"

"Hey, hey, what happened to you guys, get up."

"Hehe, are you still alive?"

In their hushed calls.

One of the leading men spoke gravely, "No need to shout, they're already dead, all signs of life have vanished from them."

At that moment, a gust of wind blew by, accompanied by the howling sound of the wind sweeping through the wild grass and treetops.

The somber atmosphere suddenly silenced everyone eerily.

Meanwhile.

About five hundred meters away under a rocky mountain, a person holding night vision goggles, and swiftly making notes in a book, muttered softly, "Wow, the Qi Condensation stage killing four at the Qi Condensation stage, two at the Foundation Establishment stage, and one at the Golden Core stage, what kind of ability is so terrifying?"

"He can even remain calm under such circumstances, steadily performing first aid for his companion; once his cultivation rises, he will definitely be a very valuable, exceptional individual."

After finishing the notes, gazing at the direction Qian Shanxue and the burly man had vanished, the person with the night vision goggles stood up.

"Although I'd like to observe more, Qian Shanxue's movements are clearly more valuable."

Whoosh!

Her figure disappeared.

Almost at the same time, quickly cutting the suture in his hand, Shen Qiang's mouth curved into a slight smile.

"Done, about three and a half minutes, there's still room for improvement in the future."

Shen Qiang thought to himself.

The five silent figures surrounding him, one of them suddenly sneezed vigorously.

Achoo!

And this sneeze was merely a catalyst; in just an instant, four of the five people present started coughing violently.

This meant they were all going to die!
