Fury Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1578 - 1581: Qingxuan's Hardships

Looking at the shy and charming campus belle Qin Yurou, Shen Qiang could tell that she was sincerely inviting him. If it were any other time, Shen Qiang would certainly have gone upstairs willingly, but now Ke Bizhu, Ye Guyun, and the perky girl Abi were there.Moreover, it was already past ten at night. Even if he went upstairs for tea with Ye Guyun and the others, there likely wouldn't be any substantial progress. Plus, after spending the whole day first destroying the bounty hunters at noon, and then going out in the evening to stir up trouble, Shen Qiang was quite tired.

So Shen Qiang smiled slightly and whispered, "How about another day? It's getting late." Then, seeing Qin Yurou's beautiful eyes subtly showing a bit of disappointment, Shen Qiang couldn't help but smile and said, "Ye Guyun can be quite boisterous. Let's have tea alone another day."

Qin Yurou's pretty face flushed red in an instant.

Tea alone?

Just the two of them?

Qin Yurou was clever; how could she not understand the meaning behind Shen Qiang's words? So, not only did her face redden, she also shyly said, "Sure, as long as you're available. By the way, don't forget, you promised me you'd accompany me to the internet cafe to play games. You have to accompany me to the flower market tomorrow."

Shen Qiang chuckled, nodded, and said, "No problem, I'll come and fetch you at nine tomorrow morning."

"That won't do, it's too late," Qin Yurou said coquettishly, "We have to go early tomorrow. If we're lucky and have good eye power, we might buy top-grade alchemy materials at a very cheap price. If we go late, the good stuff would already have been bought by others."

Shen Qiang took it lightly since he wasn't very familiar with the conditions at the flower market, but based on past experience, he instinctively realized that this was Beijing, and the exotic grass flowers transported from all over were probably similar to the antique market.

It's likely busy with customers in the morning, so the early bird gets the worm.

"Alright, then I'll come at five in the morning," Shen Qiang said.

Qin Yurou laughed, "Three-forty, you arrive here. If there's no congestion, we should reach the flower market by around four-ten. After parking the car, entering the venue will be about four-twenty, and we can't be any later, or we'll be overtaken by others."

Hearing this, Shen Qiang nodded and said, "Alright, no problem, I'll be here promptly at three-forty tomorrow morning."

After saying that, he greeted the perky girl Abi and then Shen Qiang took Ke Bizhu and Ye Guyun back home. On the way, Ye Guyun happily enjoyed some fried stinky tofu, hopping along happily. Watching her, the Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu, who was holding Shen Qiang's arm, whispered.

"Qin Yurou really likes you. Why didn't you go upstairs to have tea with her? I was all set to take Ye Guyun and Abi to sing."

Upon hearing Ke Bizhu's words, Shen Qiang squinted with a smile and said, "The key is, I prefer being with you."

Ke Bizhu laughed, "Liar, that can't be true. You're good in every way, except for not being honest enough."

Shen Qiang smiled, "My father taught me from an early age to be honest and not to lie, but look at this vast world; is there room for those who don't lie? For instance, you actually hope to be with me, yet you say I should go have tea with Qin Yurou."

The luscious and graceful Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu's pretty face blushed slightly, coquettishly complaining, "No, that's not true; you're thinking too much. However, I'm increasingly finding Qin Yurou very reliable. She's very smart, has a great sense of the big picture, and if she joins Heshenghe, no matter her appearance or strength, she could stand on her own."

Shen Qiang was surprised and said, "Do you really think so highly of her? And you're not worried that after she comes, your status would be diminished at all?"

The Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu coquettishly rolled her eyes at Shen Qiang and said, "I've wandered the world for a thousand years before meeting you. Only after arriving at Heshenghe did I experience what true stability in life is. I love waking up every morning to see the person I like. Don't you think that's the greatest happiness?"

Shen Qiang smiled and then took a deep breath, sighing, "I understand, what you hope for is my happiness."

Ke Bizhu contemplated for a moment and then laughed, "It's not as complicated as you think. I simply hope to have a partner like Qin Yurou by my side, whether it's gaming or living life, having trustworthy people is always better than not having them."

Shen Qiang smiled, then fell silent.

Returning home, after going to bed, holding the soft and warm Ke Bizhu, Shen Qiang inexplicably felt a slight pressure in his heart.

The source of this pressure wasn't fame and fortune but the profound love from the many women.

Just like in games.

Shen Qiang must be strong to protect others and lead them to victory.

If Shen Qiang isn't strong enough.

The women who have entrusted everything to Shen Qiang won't have a bright future.

Thoughts entered the Sea of Consciousness.

The breathtakingly beautiful Taiyin Youying was telling a story to the Plague Source. Shen Qiang listened for a while; it seemed to be some Divine Realm battle, anyway, just a bunch of gods fighting, which Shen Qiang found puzzling and wasn't interested in. What truly tugged at Shen Qiang's heart was Qingxuan.

This girl was originally the daughter of the Central State Empress's nanny in the Immortal Realm and had a sister-like bond with the Central State Empress Yong Zhen. Her talent was high, her cultivation reached the True Immortal Realm, and she was a general, not only beautiful but also youthful.

She should have been popular and impressive in public.

But her current life was not good at all.

In her Sea of Consciousness, she had no freedom.

If it were just this, Shen Qiang wouldn't think much.

However, after Qingxuan greeted him, Shen Qiang noticed she was still wearing the same outfit and casually asked, only then did he know all the clothes carefully sewn by Xiu Ju with Illusion Butterfly Silk, except for the one she was wearing, had been taken by Taiyin Youying.

This made Shen Qiang a bit angry.

Yet, just when Shen Qiang was about to confront Taiyin Youying, Qingxuan stopped him.

She solemnly said, "Master, giving the clothes to Lord Youying was Qingxuan's own choice. Please don't blame her. Once we find a suitable body, Qingxuan will renew her immortal fate and be free, and there can be many beautiful clothes then..."

Shen Qiang fell silent.

Because Shen Qiang understood no woman would want her treasured beautiful clothes to be worn by someone else. Qingxuan did this partly to consider the big picture and get along with Youying, and partly because of helplessness.

After all, Taiyin Youying is a god, her strength far surpassing Qingxuan's, so Qingxuan knows very well what Youying wants she cannot keep. Thus, instead of being forced to hand it over after a confrontation, she'd better take the initiative.

At least it wouldn't tear relationships apart, and they'd appear harmonious.

Therefore, after a moment's silence, Shen Qiang smiled and said, "I'll help you find the right body as soon as possible and prepare the spiritual objects needed for your rebirth. Trust me, it won't be long before I give you freedom, and then no one will be able to bully you."
