Fury Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1888 - 1991: Beat Down Every Enemy in Sight (Fifth Update)

At eight in the morning, in the gymnasium hall of Medicine King Valley, everything was ready. Not only was the live broadcast of the Immortal Realm Forum ongoing, but also Medicine King Valley's own live broadcast, alongside the live streams by numerous present cultivators, were all in full swing.After all, this was the top event in the cultivation world held every three years. Except for those cultivators in secluded cultivation untethered to worldly affairs, it's fair to say no cultivator would overlook the Elixir Pills Conference.

Because a single elixir pill often signifies the rise of a sect, the birth of a genius, or perhaps a lifesaving miracle, or the hope of becoming the strongest.

Thus, compared to the first day known as the exhibition meant for order taking, the number of viewers for the live broadcast skyrocketed exponentially.

"Indeed, the viewership for the Elixir Pills Conference has surpassed two million!" Zong Zixiao murmured gleefully to himself. "On any ordinary occasion, it's hard to draw such attention from so many cultivators."

His disciple beside him said excitedly, "Master, if Shen Qiang embarrasses himself in front of this many cultivators, he will never be able to restore his reputation in the cultivation world."

Zong Zixiao nodded with a smile and said, "True, Shen Qiang's reputation in the cultivation world is mixed; many young female cultivators and some young cultivators find him exceptional, but more traditional cultivators consider him an unorthodox practitioner."

"So if Shen Qiang's alchemy skills truly are remarkable and the cultivators foresee possibly needing him in the future, they would become prudent in their words and actions. But if Shen Qiang messes up, then I wouldn't even need to do anything; countless cultivators would come forth to kick him while he's down and ridicule him."

"Once labels like incompetent or useless become widespread in the cultivation world, oft belief triumphs over truth, and Shen Qiang will never be able to shed such stigmas."

His disciple nodded excitedly and praised, "Master is astute; now the Thirty-two Skillful Hands loathe Shen Qiang, and you've delivered a patient to Chu Xiaotian at the perfect timing. For Shen Qiang, surviving this ordeal will be exceedingly difficult."

Zong Zixiao sneered, "An alchemist's status is prestigious; Shen Qiang dreams of cleansing his reputation and becoming a respected cultivator—it's a naive fantasy!"

"Master is brilliant!"

Amidst his disciple's praises, Zong Zixiao felt proud and content.

Meanwhile, outside Medicine King Valley's gymnasium.

With a voluptuous frame akin to a meaty egg tank, Violet, gently hung up the phone, slipped the mobile into her pocket, and asked the approaching Shen Qiang anxiously, "Any news from the Ye Family?"

Shen Qiang was momentarily surprised and smiled, "Not that fast, an old friend I haven't seen in a while called me and introduced a nominal post to me and I accepted."

Violet was slightly taken aback, her eyes showing subtle disappointment. However, she didn't probe further but simply nodded.

Then, Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu and Ye Guyun approached.

"It's starting soon; let's go in." Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu gently adjusted Shen Qiang's shirt collar and tie, softly saying, "The Baihua Palace Master and Bai Family Head, and Xu Manager of Wan Xin He Sheng are waiting for you to speak. Don't keep them waiting."

Shen Qiang smiled and said, "Yes, don't worry, don't be too nervous, smile, I will win."

Ke Bizhu smiled though her expression was somewhat rigid.

After all, the Elixir Pills Conference is dominated by the Thirty-two Skillful Hands, something that can't be altered by a mere smile.

They quickly entered the gymnasium.

Upon entering, to the left, Bai Shiyi, Xu Manager, and Baihua Palace Master Weisheng Zhimei were standing there.

Weisheng Zhimei, with charming eyes, softly grinned, standing there stunningly beautiful, her talkative eyes and lightly smiling lips made Shen Qiang want to embrace her.

But obviously, considering the crowded venue and audience, a mature man cannot act as such.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

Shen Qiang nodded politely to the three.

The three shared a smile and exchanged glances.

Then Bai Shiyi sighed and said, "I should be the one to say this."

Both Weisheng Zhimei and Xu Manager nodded immediately.

Following this, Bai Shiyi smiled at Shen Qiang and said, "Actually, it's not really appropriate to talk about this now, but I know you are a real man, fully aware of your current predicament, a responsibility you cannot sidestep."

Shen Qiang smiled, "Don't beat around the bush; I'm not used to that."

Bai Shiyi smiled and solemnly said, "Shen Qiang, you must understand the cultivation world is vast, with many cultivators and similarly many alchemists. Old Xu, Weisheng Palace Master, and I all support you, but it's impossible to cause a fallout with all other alchemists just because you are one."

Shen Qiang smiled and said, "If you're worried about that, you needn't be. I'm not a child; I understand that Cheng Xinyi and Wan Xin He Sheng are in the business of trading Elixir Magical Treasures; it's their means of livelihood."

Glimpsing at the shyly giggling Weisheng Zhimei, Shen Qiang smiled, "Baihua Palace requires a wide array of pharmaceuticals; my current products probably can't fully satisfy all needs of Baihua Palace disciples, so you need to continue forging relationships with other alchemists. I won't mind, after all, even if you all relied solely on me, I'd probably be dead tired unable to manage."

Hearing this, Xu Manager nodded, "Thank you for understanding."

Shen Qiang smiled.

Yet Bai Shiyi, face solemn, took a deep breath and said, "Shen Qiang, you must understand, yesterday when facing the Kunlun Sword Sect Leader, we could support you boldly, simply because we're all cultivators and could just provide you orders."

"But today is different; today's contest involves elixir pills, simply put, it's about whose elixir pills are superior, whose skill is greater, who is more respectable."

"And all this will be judged by the alchemists themselves, irrespective of whatever judgement they make or evaluation they provide, we can't assist you."

Shen Qiang smiled and said, "I understand."

Xu Manager said, "We will always support you, but in the Elixir Pills Conference selections, we truly are powerless, and in this aspect, you can only rely on yourself."

"I know." Shen Qiang smiled.

At this point, people began to hasten things; Bai Shiyi and Xu Manager nodded to Shen Qiang before entering, while Weisheng Zhimei turned and walked a few steps down the left corridor before beckoning Shen Qiang with charming gestures to follow.

Shen Qiang chuckled instantly but promptly followed suit as a companion.

As he just turned into the corridor, the charming Baihua Palace Master swiftly pulled Shen Qiang over, kissed him first, then her bewitching eyes gazed at Shen Qiang's, saying, "A man can afford to lose, but not to lack ambition; when I aspired to be the Baihua Palace Master, the landscape was full of foes, yet ultimately, I triumphed. So, Shen Qiang, I care not who you face now, but I want you to beat them all."

With charming eyes gazing at Shen Qiang, her face slightly blushing, she pressed her slender white finger against Shen Qiang's lips, alluringly saying, "If you manage to do so, tonight, you may do as you wish."

Instantly, Shen Qiang's eyes glimmered.

"Don't worry, just get ready and wait for me!"
