In the following two days, the wooden man did not come to work, and Shen Qiang, in addition to dealing with everyday tasks, repeatedly honed his skills in refining Guiyuan Pills and successfully refined three Pei Yuan Pills from the materials in the Storage Ring.

However, he was unable to find the right ingredients for the new Elixir Pills he wanted to prepare.

It was already Thursday.

After much thought, Shen Qiang decided to call Xu Nan and asked her to have dinner together.

After discussing Blood Lipid Bone Healing Ointment, Jade Cream, Gathering Qi Powder, and Qi Gathering Powder, Shen Qiang straightforwardly spoke about Cheng Xinyi and Bai Jiao's desire for Spiritual Medicine and his own plans.

Xu Nan was very calm about this.

But when Shen Qiang placed the Pei Yuan Pill and the Guiyuan Pills in front of Xu Nan for her to choose from, Xu Nan did not hesitate and chose the Guiyuan Pill.

This made Shen Qiang somewhat happy, yet slightly disappointed.

He was pleased because Xu Nan's judgment was still quite good; despite relying on intuition, she still discerned that the Guiyuan Pills had greater potential than the Pei Yuan Pills.

So now, the only thing he could provide Cheng Xinyi and Bai Jiao were the three Pei Yuan Pills.

After all, his daily tasks were quite demanding.

Shen Qiang simply did not have the time to refine new Elixir Pills.

So, although it might seem a bit perfunctory, for the time being, it was the best he could do.

After dinner, they agreed that once there was a break the next day, Shen Qiang would attend the auction held by Wan Xin and Sheng.

Shen Qiang left the restaurant.

At that moment, Shen Qiang's phone rang. He took out his phone and saw that it was a video call from an unknown number; he answered casually and instantly saw an old factory building, lit by a very high lampstand.

In the center of the run-down factory, two frightened women were sitting.

One of them was actually Ding Yuhuan.

At the same time as Shen Qiang was stunned,

a deep male voice came through, "Shen Qiang, I know where you are. I've already sent you the address, I'm giving you ten minutes to get here. If you miss this timeframe, I guarantee, they will die."

As soon as the voice dropped, before Shen Qiang could even ask a question, the call was disconnected on the other end.

Shen Qiang redialed, but the call was rejected.

When he tried a second time, the phone was turned off...

Nine minutes later.

With the roaring sound of the engine, Shen Qiang arrived at a storage and logistics center on the edge of the second ring, waiting to be demolished.

The massive sliding door opened.

Shen Qiang, facing the somewhat harsh lighting, walked into the warehouse.

"Who are you?" The moment he entered the warehouse, Shen Qiang immediately activated Plague Source, H7N9 influenza, pneumococcus, and thermophilic streptococcus gushed forth.

As the pathogens enveloped the man standing in the hall, Shen Qiang not only noticed immediately that Ding Yuhuan and another woman were unconscious but also saw an old CT machine placed beside them.

Not only that, but Shen Qiang also clearly perceived a fat man standing by the warehouse door behind him.

"You're braver than I thought, but not as smart."

As the warehouse door closed, the fat man, with a cold sneer on his face, walked towards Shen Qiang from behind.

"Let's get started."

Following the fatty's orders.

Crisp sounds of bone-cracking emanated from Ding Yuhuan and another woman.

Yet even so, the two people lying in the warehouse did not wake up.

Placing the now live-streaming phone on a nearby stand, the fatty looked at Shen Qiang with arrogant eyes and sneered, "Shen Qiang, I told you that if I wanted to compete with you, you'd have no way to refuse me."

Shen Qiang's gaze was cold and calm, his tone so steady it lacked any fluctuation.

"To compete in massage therapy with me, you kidnapped these two women and had that guy use True Qi to break their bones?"

Looking at the calm Shen Qiang, the fatty smiled, "That's right. Since it's a bone-setting competition, it's hard to find two patients in the exact same condition. But artificially creating the situation is simple; identical positions, identical techniques, resulting in identical fractures."

Turning his head and looking at the fatty, Shen Qiang calmly said, "Don't you think what you are doing is cruel?"

The fatty laughed, "Cruel? I have been very merciful. I administered general anesthesia to them; they can't feel any pain at all."

"Moreover, the one who caused all this is not me, but you, Shen Qiang." With a smug look, the fatty said, "Because you were foolish enough to think you had the right to refuse me. Do you understand now?"

"My brain is a thousand times smarter than yours, you pretentious fool. You are already playing right into my hands."

With a still calm expression, Shen Qiang said blandly, "Your cunning will only lead to your demise, because I remember warning you, if you dare to have such thoughts, I would personally send you to hell."

Upon hearing Shen Qiang's words, the watching live-streaming crowd exploded with various messages.

"Damn, Shen Qiang is awesome, even in this situation he dares to speak like this. Doesn't he see the guy next to the fatty is very powerful?"

"The fatty's tactics are a bit despicable, but simple, direct, and effective."

"Hey, Shen Qiang, what are you doing at this time, still putting on airs, saying he will personally send the fatty to hell, damn, the fatty dares to do this, wouldn't it be stupid not to kill to seal the deal after winning?"

"Exactly, the fatty is at the Golden Core Stage, the other guy's cultivation is even higher. Shen Qiang is merely at the Foundation Establishment Stage. In this scenario, whether he wins or loses, Shen Qiang is doomed."

"He Fatty, I curse you, daring to touch my grand-uncle master, I will kill your entire family!"

In the live-streaming group, various messages were chaotic.

However, at this moment, the fatty was extremely excited. He laughed and said, "I think, given your personality, under these circumstances, if it were someone else, you might not save them. But Ding Yuhuan is different, you really like her, right?"

"Big melon breasts, round and perky buttocks, and a pretty face, wouldn't it be a pity if she were dead or crippled?"

Seeing Shen Qiang silent, the fatty laughed and raised his eyebrows.

"Now, she is your patient, the other one is mine. The rule is not to cut open the skin. We will perform bone setting for them. Whoever does it best, wins. If both complete the bone setting and their skill level is equal, then the one who takes the shortest time wins."

Bang!

Ding Yuhuan was thrown onto the CT by the silent expert.

The fatty skillfully operated the CT machine, remarking, "Really ruthless, not only the limbs are fractured, but the ribs and spine too, tsk tsk, even if the bone setting is completed, it looks like she will be paralyzed for life."

After a brief look.

The expert picked up Ding Yuhuan in one swoop and threw her towards Shen Qiang like a sandbag.

Bang!

Shen Qiang caught her.

At that moment, the expert tossed the other woman onto the CT machine.

"Tsk tsk, the fracture conditions of both are exactly the same, truly worthy of a master."

Speaking thus, the fatty casually picked the woman off the CT machine, looked at Shen Qiang, and smiled, "Everyone has seen it, everything is very fair, now we can begin the contest."
