Chapter 1544 - 1547: Shen Qiang, You Go First
"Dragon Group, Wenren Meiqiao!"Seeing the tall and graceful figure of the beautiful military officer standing behind Shen Qiang, her face exquisite and her lips tinged with the fervor of battle, some of the bounty hunters recognized her identity. After all, even though Wenren Meiqiao never won against Qian Shanxue in the competitions within the Dragon Group, her presence was unmistakable.
On the bounty hunter platform or in the entire Cultivation World, Wenren Meiqiao indeed paled in comparison to the dazzling Qian Shanxue.
However, in places where Wenren Meiqiao has been active, she was also renowned as a two-blade beauty nemesis. Her allure was undeniable, with a perfect figure, formidable cultivation, and was recognized as one of the Dragon Group's dual pearls alongside Qian Shanxue, forever the second who never won.
Outside the Dragon Group, Wenren Meiqiao was beautiful, flower-like, ruthless, and wielded the rare double blades, being an undisputed expert in the Mixed Element Realm, especially impressive with her extraordinary blades.
Among them, the blade named Qiuye was historically the famed weapon of an anti-samurai general, having slaughtered countless invaders, making its name highly celebrated in the Cultivation World, even overshadowing some ordinary Immortal Swords.
The other blade, Jubao, though not as famous, was still well-known among Cultivators.
Because Jubao, originating from invaders several centuries ago, was painstakingly crafted to counter the undefeated general armed with the Miao Blade Qiuye.
The wielder was their strongest at the time, but ultimately fell to Qiushui.
This tale led to many knowing of Jubao, yet its fame was overlooked, much like Wenren Meiqiao's brilliance in the Dragon Group.
Besides this.
The most discussed among Cultivators was Wenren Meiqiao's third blade.
Even in the task guidelines for bounty hunting Wenren Meiqiao, caution regarding her third blade is explicitly mentioned, yet no one has accurately described what it truly is.
Thus more Cultivators instinctively referred to her as the two-bladed nemesis.
Now, seeing her appear behind Shen Qiang, the many bounty hunters present felt an unprovoked tension.
Because in Beijing, there weren't any sects established.
Thus, the largest and strongest entity here was the Dragon Group.
And as Wenren Meiqiao belonged to the Dragon Group, her presence instinctively signaled trouble to the bounty hunters.
"Shen Qiang, you, the mighty Heshenghe leader, King of Demons, how unexpected, secretly collaborating with the Dragon Group for an ambush here!"
As a bounty hunter shouted angrily, many other bounty hunters' gazes turned fierce.
"Despicable, shameless, I thought Shen Qiang was truly a great hero, unbelievably relying on the Dragon Group, just a cowardly turtle."
"Hmph, King of Demons, merely trash."
Hearing the angry, irate shouts of the bounty hunters, Shen Qiang wasn't overly perturbed.
Shen Qiang's focus was entirely on the sword under his arm because, although it hurt and bled when pierced, Shen Qiang keenly discerned that not only had the wound healed, but it also served as a reminder.
Shen Qiang's armor, Star Moon's Protection, crafted from Nine-transformed Heavenly Silkworm Silk, was impervious to blades, yet the soft armor was not invincible, lacking sleeves, leaving areas other than vital organs vulnerable in combat.
Taking in the strong scent of jasmine from Wenren Meiqiao.
Shen Qiang sighed gently because her appearance disrupted his plans, as the sole purpose of attracting bounty hunters was for Shen Qiang to display power, causing them to fear.
Thus naturally, when bounty hunters felt taking Shen Qiang's tasks were too dangerous, they would retreat.
If no one accepted the tasks, bounties, no matter how high, became futile.
Just like Qian Shanxue.
Her bounty on the bounty hunter platform now exceeded six hundred million, logically many should want to kill her.
But in reality, very few truly dared to accept the task of defeating Qian Shanxue.
Because all Cultivators understood Qian Shanxue's strength.
At this moment, Shen Qiang said helplessly, "Wenren Meiqiao, who sent you?"
Upon hearing these words, the lethargic yet charmingly provocative Wenren Meiqiao was instantly infuriated: "Who sent me? Who do you think you are? The Jade Emperor? The center of the universe? Who requires protection?"
"Or do you believe your title, Dragon Group Security Advisor, means the Dragon Group revolves around you? Can you wake up? You're playing with fire, understand? Dragon Group will not protect you. My presence is a personal act, I'm simply repaying you a favor."
Shen Qiang was stunned by these words.
Bounty hunters who had initially intended to flee now halted, their eyes turning eager.
"Personal act, meaning no Dragon Group Combat Team is here."
"Great chance, this Wenren Meiqiao, strong but just Mixed Element!"
"Fantastic, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
As many bounty hunters stirred with murderous intent.
Qin Yurou, the beautiful school flower blocked by Zong Zijin, saw the captivating Wenren Meiqiao standing back to back with Shen Qiang, feeling herself being incensed by Zong Zijin.
Because the one meant to appear by Shen Qiang's side should have been herself, Qin Yurou.
But now, Wenren Meiqiao had appeared. If she went now, would it matter?
She arrived after someone else, what would Shen Qiang think?
Her heart was filled with anger.
At this moment, hearing Wenren Meiqiao's words, Zong Zijin's eyes brightened, seeing the bounty hunters hesitating yet not acting, he boldly proclaimed, "Shen Qiang, if you don't flee, awaiting the Dragon Group's reinforcement which is merely one person, if not, you'll surely perish."
Hearing this, the bounty hunters instantly began their offensive, all manner of flying swords and magical treasures attacking unceasingly.
Seeing this, Wenren Meiqiao urgently said, "Shen Qiang, you go first, I can hold them back."
With that, her blade, Qiuye, erupted with chilling sword light.
