Chapter 1548 - 1551: Surrender? Sorry, the Wind Was Too Loud to Hear You (Fifth Update)

This startling scene left Shen Qiang, hovering in the air, and the jasmine-fragranced, slender Wenren Meiqiao beside him both momentarily stunned. However, almost in the instant of their surprise, boom, a figure appeared above Shen Qiang and Wenren Meiqiao's heads like a streak of light."Dao Fruit Stage!" Wenren Meiqiao, who instantly made the judgment, was shocked, and her slender jade hand instinctively reached for her waist, preparing to use her third knife.

Though the change happened unexpectedly and caught them off guard, both the Dao Fruit Stage bounty hunter and Wenren Meiqiao underestimated Shen Qiang's vigilance.

Boom!

Amidst the dense, blood-colored mist, the evil spirit Yuwen Hu, who had beheaded three emperors, not only struck away the Mixed Element Realm bounty hunter with a single slash but also pursued relentlessly like a fierce tiger. His unstoppable momentum forced the Dao Fruit Stage bounty hunter into a retreat without any ability to fight back.

The scene made the bounty hunter, who was already in despair, instantly lose all will to fight.

"Shen Qiang, please spare me. I've decided to abandon the mission."

"I won't fight anymore. From now on, I'll wash my hands of murder and thievery!"

"Shen Qiang, you are the King of Demons and the Dragon Group's Security Advisor. You can do as you please. We surrender; you can't kill us."

The many bounty hunters, seeing the situation now completely one-sided with most of their people dead, realized that surrender was their only option. After all, in an escape attempt, who could outrun the pursuit of the ancient Great Demon Ye Guyun?

Moreover, it was even more despairing for them that they couldn't even touch Shen Qiang at that moment.

What was even more unbearable for them was that Shen Qiang's anthrax bacteria and botulinum toxin had already started to take effect. Essentially, without needing Shen Qiang to kill them, except for the two in the Mixed Element Realm Peak and Dao Fruit Stage, no one would survive to leave the racing grounds without treatment.

Hearing the shouts of surrender from the bounty hunters on the ground beneath him, Wenren Meiqiao, with her jade hand behind her back, blushed red as a piece of red cloth. She then released her grip as if bitten by a snake, bowed her head silently, and stood on Ye Guyun's back without saying a word, looking utterly confused and shy despite her strength in the Mixed Element Realm Late Stage.

She didn't even dare to breathe loudly, her face flushed, with a half-smile expression, embarrassed as if she wished to disappear.

At this moment, Shen Qiang, clearly taller than her by half a head, looked calmly at her neck, initially as white as snow, now as red as a cloth, and then casually waved his hand.

Swish!

A surgical knife instantly fell to an unoccupied area of the racing grounds.

This action immediately reignited hope for life among the already despairing bounty hunters.

"Haha, haha, Shen Qiang's knife isn't directed at us anymore. He spared us. I knew it; a young kid like him can't take a word of praise. Silly, Shen Qiang, just wait till next time when I come to take your miserable life!"

"I thought the King of Demons, Shen Qiang, was so formidable, arrogant, and domineering, but he's nothing more than that. A few harmless words could save you in front of him. With such a fool becoming the King of Demons, why can't I?"

One bounty hunter laughed in joy, "I always knew that surrendering would surely be fine. Shen Qiang is a Dragon Group Advisor; how could he dare act recklessly? Hmph, wanton killing? Would the Dragon Group still want him?"

"Would Heshenghe still want to be open? Hahaha, so it's nothing. Shen Qiang, come down quickly, detoxify us, and at worst, lock us up for a few days, and that's all there is to it."

Hearing the bounty hunters' laughter, Zong Zijin glanced at the cold-faced Qin Yurou, raising his eyebrows with a cold sneer: "Junior sister, I'm not gossiping, but Shen Qiang, albeit skilled in alchemy, surrounded by powerful demons and capable of fighting, is not a wise person."

"See? Shen Qiang previously gave these people several chances to leave, but for treasures and elixir pills, they are bent on killing Shen Qiang. Now, seeing they can't kill him, they start playing the pity card to garner sympathy."

"Surrendering, retiring, reforming. If they indeed had a conscience, wouldn't they know that Shen Qiang has a family waiting for him to come home for dinner?"

"Oh, they come to kill and steal with such righteousness. Letting them go is like letting the tiger return to the mountain, breeding future troubles. With them as an example, more will come to assassinate Shen Qiang."

"It's simple logic: kill Shen Qiang if possible, surrender if not. Shen Qiang, as a Dragon Group's Security Advisor, doesn't dare act out. If successful, they hit the jackpot. If they fail, they just have to feign submission. This deal is worthwhile, isn't it? Anyone would want to try."

Seeing Qin Yurou's complexion worsen upon hearing his words, Zong Zijin coldly mocked, "Even a three-year-old knows that evil should be eradicated completely, leaving no roots. What's the use of Shen Qiang being so strong if he's soft-hearted, always taken advantage of, and still complacent about it? Isn't that just being useless?"

As his voice fell, at that instant, a force like a star descending from beyond fell heavily upon the surgical knife casually discarded by Shen Qiang.

Boom!

The furious power of the stars erupted instantly, spreading like lightning from the surgical knife. In an instant, the massive aura made Qin Yurou, Zong Zijin, and others unleash all their True Yuan just to barely resist.

Even the four members of the Illusion Demolition Group were filled with shock from afar.

"Impossible!" The leader of the Illusion Demolition Group exclaimed in awe, "Such terrifying power of stars, even a Dao Fruit Stage cultivator can't withstand it!"

Almost the instant he exclaimed, the evil spirit Yuwen Hu, who was aggressively pursuing the Dao Fruit Stage bounty hunter, suddenly vanished, transforming into a stream of light returning to Shen Qiang's side, then the Great Demon Qiongqi, with a flap of its wings, appeared almost instantly a thousand meters away.

Boom!

The dreadful silver light formed a massive pillar reaching the sky, even during the day.

The turbulent power of the stars blew Ye Guyun swaying in the air, while Wenren Meiqiao stumbled, leaning on Shen Qiang.

Then, her divine sense shockingly discovered that within the massive sword array, there was no longer any sign of life. Whether Mixed Element Realm or Dao Fruit Stage, no one survived. Wenren Meiqiao couldn't help but exclaim urgently, "Shen Qiang, they've surrendered. Why must you kill them?"

At this moment, Shen Qiang, with his hands around her waist to help her stand firm, slightly raised his eyebrows, and a mischievous smile appeared on his lips, "Surrender? Didn't hear that, I suppose the wind was too loud."
