Chapter 2062 - 2065: Etiquette and Grandstanding Can't Solve Anything
At the same moment the charming and beautiful young woman revealed a sweet and proud smile, Shen Qiang, sitting in the car, had just pushed away the exceedingly thick personnel documents handed over by Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing, and said, "Qingyun Sword Pavilion has two hundred and seventy-one people, plus the original people from Qingyun Sword Hall, there are more than four hundred. This doesn't even count those entry-level disciples who haven't achieved much. I can't keep track of it all or remember."Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing was helpless, and charmingly said, "Shen Qiang, I know you don't really like the people from Qingyun Sword Pavilion, but now it's different from the past. This time, Medicine King Valley, Thirty-two Skillful Hands, the leaders of Heshenghe Pill Alliance are all gathering at Heshenghe. The entire Cultivation World is watching, as the saying goes, 'Raise soldiers for a thousand days, use them in one moment.' At this time, it's indeed necessary for the people of Qingyun Sword Pavilion to come out and support the scene."
"Support the scene?" Shen Qiang laughed, leaning back in the chair, and calmly raised his eyebrows, "I have never cared about that."
This statement surprised Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing.
But at the same time, Shen Qiang spoke coldly, "And, I also hope you can understand, Heshenghe has come to this day step by step, without anything being accomplished through etiquette or appearance."
Looking at the slightly disappointed Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing, Shen Qiang smiled and sat beside her, gently embracing her and said, "Please forgive my directness, and perhaps you can't agree with my words at all. But in reality, we must understand that the fundamental of surviving in the Cultivation World is not ceremony, not appearance, but strength."
Seeing the disappointed look and sigh of Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing, Shen Qiang smiled and said, "Very disappointed, right? You wholeheartedly want to help me, but your opinion doesn't matter to me. This taste must be very unpleasant."
Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing was silent for a moment, then said, "Yes, actually I also know that so-called ceremony and appearance can only add embellishment but are powerless to save a crisis. But now the situation is different, you are the Medicine King. This is the first time Heshenghe is receiving important guests from the Cultivation World after you became the Medicine King. So, I feel that I must do everything, because this can make you more radiant, like the sun at noon!"
Shen Qiang laughed and said, "True radiance is not about appearance, but about responding to a call with unrivaled strength. In the aspect of Elixir Pills, I have already achieved this, but in other aspects, I am still far behind, so I thank you for doing all this for me, but I hope you don't lose your original intent. Remember, when your strength is strong enough to make everyone fear you, the world becomes tranquil, and conspiracy and tricks are far away."
Upon hearing this, Ye Guyun, who was sitting by while holding a tablet to watch anime, was surprised and said, "Shen Qiang, since you don't feel there's any point in having the Qingyun Sword Pavilion people support the scene, then why still go to Qingyun Sword Pavilion? Qin Yurou and the others will be here tomorrow, and with many people, there will surely be many things to deal with. It's better for you to rest now."
Upon hearing Ye Guyun's words, both Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu and Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing's eyes brightened, all glancing with curiosity at Shen Qiang.
Shen Qiang smiled a little and said, "When your strength is sufficient, all matters on the scene are no problem. If strength is lacking, no matter how you try to please others, they will not care. Therefore, my trip to Qingyun Sword Pavilion this time has only one purpose, to support Kang Luoying, and make it clear to them who really is the person in charge of Heshenghe, who truly is the Family Head of Qingyun Sword Pavilion."
Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing was surprised and said, "I don't understand."
Shen Qiang laughed, picked up a wine glass, and looked at the swirling red wine in the glass and said, "Earlier, you said Kang Luoying had brought this matter up with the people from Qingyun Sword Pavilion, but the elders and her uncles there don't want to participate. Haha, such obvious disregard for orders, if I don't give them a reminder, we would end up becoming a sucker just giving them money for nothing?"
Following this, suddenly the eyes of Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing, Ke Bizhu, and Ye Guyun all brightened.
An hour later, in the spacious office at the top of Qingyun Sword Pavilion, the Cultivation World's idol-level genius beauty Kang Luoying was looking angrily at the many Cultivation World practitioners from Qingyun Sword Pavilion sitting on the sofa.
"Second Elder, let me tell you once again, this time, it's the first time since Shen Qiang became the Medicine King that Heshenghe is receiving important figures from the Cultivation World, the entire Cultivation World is watching, at this time, our people from Qingyun Sword Pavilion can't just sit on our hands."
"Call me Second Grandpa." The Second Elder leisurely drank tea.
Instantly, Kang Luoying tried to say something, but was speechless.
Because all the core members of Qingyun Sword Pavilion originate from the Kang family. Simply put, all core disciples are surnamed Kang, all are cousins, and according to generations, Kang Luoying's grandfather has to call the Second Elder, Second Brother, so the Second Elder wants Kang Luoying to call him Second Grandpa, she has no retort.
"Third Uncle, at such a large event, if not a single Cultivation World practitioner from Heshenghe shows up, we will be ridiculed." Kang Luoying frowned and said.
The man with a white face and no beard smiled and said, "No need to call me Master Uncle, just call me Third Uncle. You, child, are young and can't see through many things, learn a bit more from us. We've watched you grow up, you've always been obedient and sensible, don't be stubborn about this issue."
Idol-level genius beauty Kang Luoying was about to explode with anger, feeling extremely wronged, yet had no outlet for complaints.
After all, initially, to make Heshenghe refrain from stomping on Qingyun Sword Pavilion, for the clansmen of Qingyun Sword Hall to live better, Kang Luoying sought Shen Qiang countless times, asking him to go easy. If not for this, back when the conflict between Heshenghe and Qingyun Sword Pavilion was at its worst, even if all the people from Qingyun Sword Hall were killed, Kang Luoying would have had no complaints.
Moreover.
Fearful of her clansmen being wronged, Kang Luoying repeatedly rejected Bianyi's proposal to take over, just to avoid the clansmen suffering under Bianyi's rule. But now, she has become a figurehead, saying anything and no one listens.
"Third Uncle, Second Elder, speaking to the issue at hand, Shen Qiang paid the money, gave face, wanted to offload the burden, Qingyun Sword Pavilion's debt, Shen Qiang repaid for us. Now with you acting like this, doesn't your conscience hurt?"
Upon hearing this, everyone in the office laughed, and the man with a white face and no beard showed an expression looking down on Kang Luoying and said, "Silly girl, you don't understand. Do you? Now the Cultivation World is focusing on Shen Qiang, if our people from Qingyun Sword Pavilion don't go, the embarrassment is on him, so he must personally call, or come here to beg us, only then can our Qingyun Sword Pavilion's importance be shown."
"Of course, asking for favor can't be free, if he asks us to support the scene, naturally we can't help him for nothing, he must give at least dozens of Elixir Pills, otherwise, let him play on his own."
"You!" The shameless expression of everyone angered Kang Luoying greatly, but she didn't know what to say for a moment.
Just as they smiled at the angry and helpless Kang Luoying.
Bang! With a sound.
The office door was kicked open.
