Chapter 1673 - 1676: The Arrogant Mermaid DJ (Fifth Update)
As the mesmerizing rhythm of the music played, many young men and women entered the dance floor, but Shen Qiang's attention wasn't on the girl who approached him, nor did he glance at the youths having fun. His eyes were firmly fixed on the stunning female DJ, Qian Ning.Although Wenren Meiqiao had previously said that Jinli Qianning was the contact for the Great Sea Demon in Beijing, which implied a very close relationship with the Great Sea Demon, Shen Qiang had always thought Jinli was a nickname.
Just like Wenren Meiqiao was called the "eternal second" in the Dragon Group, and the "dual-sword demoness" in the Cultivation World, they were mere titles.
But now, in Shen Qiang's eyes, the graceful, slender figure of Qian Ning, with her breathtaking beauty that was a mix of allure and rebelliousness, was not just charming, but undeniably a Demon.
Moreover, what was even more surprising was that her existence spanned three hundred and twenty-three years.
This meant that she had lived under the guise of a human for at most twenty-three years because typically, without three hundred years of cultivation, it was nearly impossible for a demon to become human.
So then, the question arose.
Do carp live in the sea?
Shen Qiang was bewildered, filled with questions as he kept his eyes locked on the stunning female DJ, Qian Ning.
And at that moment, because Shen Qiang hadn't concealed his cultivation aura, the female DJ, Qian Ning, who was DJing, also kept her eyes fixed on Shen Qiang.
But her gaze was not just cold; it carried a hint of incomprehensible pride and contempt.
"Hey handsome, want to dance with me?"
As Shen Qiang was in his state of astonishment, a well-dressed beautiful woman leaned close to his ear and whispered softly.
Shen Qiang glanced at her.
The beautifully dressed woman immediately tucked her hair behind her ear, clearly waiting for Shen Qiang to lean in and speak to her ear.
But Shen Qiang smiled and said calmly, "Sorry, miss, I've made plans with that female DJ, she'll come find me later, maybe another day."
Upon hearing this, the beautifully dressed woman looked disappointed, but she still leaned in to Shen Qiang's ear and said, "Alright, thank you for saving my face, see you."
Having said that, she turned and left.
In fact, both Shen Qiang and the woman understood that an indefinite 'other day' was a euphemism for rejection—a social etiquette among adults. A promise of 'another day let's have dinner,' 'another day let's sing,' 'another day let's go to a spa,' they are all courteous words that are never fulfilled.
There was no other way; if Shen Qiang were an ordinary young man, he wouldn't have rejected a woman who approached him proactively. But things were different now. Shen Qiang was the King of Demons, surrounded by beautiful women, and not just anyone could come get a share of the pie.
In terms of temperament, looks, status, if a woman wasn't up to par, even if she stood naked in front of Shen Qiang, it was a question mark whether he would even give a second glance.
After a few minutes, the leg-tapping dance tune ended. As another female DJ took over, the tall, slender, rebellious yet slightly wild, absolutely stunning Qian Ning came over from the DJ booth.
"Looking for me?"
Her tone was wild, cold, and proud.
Shen Qiang nodded, smiled but said nothing.
"Follow me." With that, she led Shen Qiang through a narrow hallway, opened the back door of the nightclub, and Shen Qiang, feeling the fresh air and the cool evening breeze, clearly saw her long hair blown by the wind stick to her pretty face.
So beautiful.
With a prominent nose, cherry lips, perfect body proportions matched with a short leather jacket, high heels, and tight leather pants, it seemed her legs were a meter and a half long.
"Shen Qiang, you have three minutes to state your purpose."
Her tone was very proud.
Shen Qiang smiled and replied, "Do you know me?"
"A pretender calling himself the King of Demons, who doesn't know?" said Qian Ning, her beautiful eyes filled with contempt.
Shen Qiang frowned and then said, "You're the Great Sea Demon's contact, so I'll give you a heads-up: If it was the Great Sea Demon saying this to me, I might just smile and not mind it. But you, little carp, don't have the audacity to be so arrogant in front of me. After all, you're only three hundred and twenty-three years old, and besides being pretty, you don't have the strength to challenge me."
For a moment, Qian Ning, with her beautiful eyes widened and brows furrowed, was slightly surprised, then she smiled calmly and said, "Looks like you've done your homework. You should know that I'm the Great Sea Demon's most beloved little daughter, so it's best you speak to me with some respect."
Shen Qiang was stunned: "You're the Great Sea Demon's daughter?"
Qian Ning, with her brows tightly furrowed, asked in surprise, "Are you playing dumb with me?"
Shen Qiang was slightly embarrassed, then smiled and said, "A bit surprising, I always thought you were just a little demon running errands for the Great Sea Demon. Since you're his daughter, I'll be direct. I want to do some business with the Great Sea Demon."
The corners of Qian Ning's mouth curled into a contemptuous smile: "Do business? Are you kidding? A pretender like you, no real strong person will ever do business with you."
"I need to search the sea for something and need someone to help me deal with the Sea Emperor Clan. Elixir Pills, money, Magical Treasures, supplies, whatever needed is not a problem, the price can be negotiated." Shen Qiang raised an eyebrow.
Qian Ning smiled indifferently, turned around, and said, "Another delusional guy. Want to do business with my father? First, defeat Shennong Huangshen!"
With that, she turned and returned to the club.
Shen Qiang called out, but she didn't turn around, and with a bang, she shut the door.
This left Shen Qiang at the back door of the club in silence for a long time before giving up on further negotiations with her. Instead, he returned to his car: "Shennong Huangshen, Kunlun Snow Woman, Changbai Three Immortals, Great Sea Demon, she thinks I'm not worthy to do business with the Great Sea Demon. Impressive, quite arrogant!"
"The daughter of the Great Sea Demon says I am a pretender, clearly refusing to acknowledge my title as King of Demons! Fine, you look down on me? Think I'm not qualified to negotiate with the Great Sea Demon? Just wait, soon enough, I'll become strong enough to make you all look at me with newfound respect. At that time, I'll have you begging to cooperate with me."
Thinking this, Shen Qiang drove straight to Wenren Meiqiao's residence.
Meanwhile.
On the snow-capped peaks of the Kunlun Mountains, shimmering under the starlight and moon, the graceful Qian Shanxue held the Jade Flute of a little Taoist boy and smiled at the stunning beauty, standing proudly in the wind with only two pieces of animal skins covering her waist and chest: "The little Taoist boy said that as long as I have this flute, I can ask this Snow Woman to do a task for me. Now that the flute is in my hands, my dear instructor, I request that you immediately descend the mountain to protect Shen Qiang."
The graceful, enchanting Kunlun Snow Woman giggled and said, "You're really naughty. I can go down the mountain to protect Shen Qiang, but only if you advance to the Dao Fruit Stage. Until then, I will guard you, as this is my promise to that guy from the Dragon Group."
