Astonishment!

Everyone in the hall looked at Shen Qiang, shocked.

In terms of cultivation, Shen Qiang was definitely the last one without a doubt among these people.

With the level of Qi Condensation at its initial stage, he didn't even qualify as a true cultivator.

Had it not been so, Jing Haotian and others wouldn't have looked down on Shen Qiang before.

But now, everyone present looked at Shen Qiang without a trace of contempt, only caution and fear.

You must know, previously, Shen Qiang made Jing Haotian catch a cold, sneezing and dripping with snot. Although no one could see through his method, after all, there had been a handshake, a physical contact, being poisoned by an experienced doctor was still plausible.

But just a moment ago, under the watchful eyes of everyone, it was clear that Shen Qiang made no move to poison anyone.

What's more terrifying is, the emaciated cultivator had already expelled True Qi as a defense when Shen Qiang walked past, yet, astonishingly, he still fell victim silently and without warning.

How terrifying was that?

He only had a case of diarrhea now, but what if it had been Intestine-breaking Powder, Crane Crown Red, or other lethal poisons?

It's known that cultivators are indeed countless times stronger than ordinary people.

But they are far from being invulnerable to all poisons.

If the poison is right, they can die just the same.

There was silence in the hall.

Everyone looked at Shen Qiang with eyes full of fear.

Nobody spoke.

After about two minutes of eerie silence,

the skinny man who had rushed out with tissue paper earlier returned with a pale face.

"To dare to poison me, I'll show you..."

Before he could finish, the skinny man, feeling a huge jolt in his anus, turned around tearfully, and with a swoosh, disappeared without a trace.

Witnessing this scene, the people present burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, too funny, I thought he was going to draw his sword, but he ended up running back to the toilet."

"So impressive, it's breathtaking. It's hard to imagine that a cultivator with only the strength of initial Qi Condensation could possess such an undetectable and devious method of poisoning."

"Yeah, how terrifying! Truly worthy of being the 'Doctor Who Refuses to Save,' such a domineering approach."

Upon hearing the phrase 'Doctor Who Refuses to Save,'

everyone present was startled.

An elderly man frowned slightly and said, "Doctor Who Refuses to Save, what does that mean?"

Someone beside him exclaimed, "Don't you ever watch the news or go online?"

The elderly man was somewhat embarrassed and said, "Uh... cultivation is more important, but I do watch occasionally."

"Hahaha, not knowing about 'Doctor Who Refuses to Save.'" Here, let me show you.

The young cultivator speaking searched his tablet and brought up a previous news video clip.

"Although I'm a doctor, there are three I won't save: the utterly vile, those who don't believe in me, and those who annoy me!"

After the video played,

the eyes of everyone in attendance looking at Shen Qiang became even more complex.

"Indeed, a hero emerges from youth; acting on one's nature is the beginning of the Great Way."

"Hmm, as a cultivator, one naturally must possess such pride."

"Without rules, one cannot make a circle. This little fellow Daoist, although your cultivation may be weak, you have quite the spirit. One day, you'll surely not be a common fish in the pond."

Although the crowd praised him, their gazes towards Shen Qiang still held great caution.

But that was also normal.

After all, they did not understand Shen Qiang.

They were uncertain of Shen Qiang's character, and even if they were inclined to make friends, they had to consider whether Shen Qiang might turn his face and poison them.

Their gazes were wary, their minds full of mixed thoughts.

However, at this moment, the surprised and beautiful Xu Nan came up and sat beside Shen Qiang, looking at him peeling grapes in amazement and asked, "How did you do it? What poison did you use on him? Croton? That seems a bit unlikely."

Looking at Xu Nan, who was full of doubts, Shen Qiang tossed a peeled grape into his mouth and then spoke.

"He just ate too many grapes."

Xu Nan was stunned, looking at Shen Qiang as he continued to eat grapes, her face full of embarrassment: "Really? Then why are you still eating them?"

Shen Qiang's eyes curved with a smile: "I have a good appetite."

The beautiful manager Xu Nan rolled her eyes, her face expressing disbelief and disdain.

Shen Qiang laughed.

Actually, what Shen Qiang had done was merely release a group of out-of-control Thermophilic Streptococcus through Plague Source.

This species of microorganism.

Was originally cultivated by Shen Qiang to help infants cope with lactose intolerance symptoms.

For which, the little guy Plague Source suffered for a good few days.

This microorganism is a part of the normal intestinal flora for adults, capable of regulating the balance of intestinal microbes and clearing harmful bacteria.

But the premise is that the microorganism must be kept within a reasonable range.

When solving the lactose intolerance issue for that infant, Shen Qiang chose the most stable strain.

But just now, Shen Qiang chose a strain that would reproduce without limit and become uncontrollable.

Once this uncontrolled strain of Thermophilic Streptococcus entered the body of the other party, it would rapidly multiply, and the out-of-control microbial colonies would directly cause intestinal dysfunction.

Killing someone, well, that definitely couldn't be done in a short amount of time.

But diarrhea was inevitable, and it would become more and more serious as time dragged on, eventually leading to death by dehydration.

At this moment, Jing Haotian, who was extremely displeased to see Xu Nan sitting beside Shen Qiang—who had just slapped him—hesitated for a moment, still he brought the pimply-faced chubby fellow and sat on the other side of Xu Nan.

Just then, the pale and thin cultivator, clutching his stomach, shakily walked back and pointed at Shen Qiang, saying, "If you have the guts, don't use poison. Let's have a one-on-one duel."

As soon as he finished speaking, his face changed, and he turned to run out.

Seeing this scene, Xu Nan's eyes curved with laughter, but then she seemed somewhat reluctant and couldn't help but say softly, "Shen Qiang, this person just said some unpleasant words, he didn't really mean any harm to you. Perhaps you should let him off this time."

Shen Qiang laughed and replied, "No problem, but if I let him go now, his cultivation is higher than mine, I guess he will definitely want to fight me, so let's wait. Let's wait until he doesn't have the strength to make noise anymore."

Xu Nan laughed.

At that moment, the acne-covered chubby man on the other side spoke coldly, "Despicable, shameless, resorting to poison at the slightest disagreement, you evil heretic, your entire family should be exterminated."

Shen Qiang's gaze turned frosty.

Quick to sense the faint killing intent emanating from Shen Qiang and recalling that night when Shen Qiang mercilessly hacked those street thugs to death, Xu Nan urgently warned loudly, "You vile servant, if you continue with such nonsense, you might well bring about your own death."

The pimple-faced chubby man, unconvinced, retorted coldly, "Our Jing Family has many strong members and holds a prestigious name in the Cultivation World. How could we fear a junior like him?"

Upon hearing this, before Shen Qiang could even speak, Xu Nan said sharply, "Ignorant. You can't even understand Shen Qiang's method of poisoning, yet you dare to boast. If you anger his sect, you probably won't even know how you died."
