In the following days, Shen Qiang and his Sheng He became the hottest topic in the Cultivation World.

This time, compared to annihilating the Long Yan Sword Sect, what captivated the members of the Cultivation World even more was that Shen Qiang had captured a member of the Blood Clan from the Provincial City who could transform into a bat, and then, without hesitation, had lit the Heavenly Lantern for him.

On top of that, there were dozens of female corpses.

All kinds of guesses, old grudges, and discussions filled the forums, and for a while, Shen Qiang and Sheng He were unrivaled in popularity.

Moreover, even though Shen Qiang was only at the Nascent Soul Stage at the time,

after this incident, no one doubted Shen Qiang's ability to be the King of Demons anymore; almost all cultivators on the forum, along with some verified members of the Demon Clan, affirmed Shen Qiang greatly.

Especially the cultivators.

In fact, if one looks into history, demons have been active among humans since the day history began to be recorded.

And looking at the history of the Cultivation World,

initially, cultivators and demons were not inherently antagonistic.

Later, however, with the ideology that paths of good and evil cannot coexist, demons had been hunted by cultivators for thousands of years.

But as modern technology advanced,

and higher education became widespread,

the status of demons entering the new era indeed rose considerably.

But in the hearts of true cultivators, demons were always considered demons, and the older cultivators did not trust them.

So when they saw Shen Qiang, a cultivator with the ability to command these demons,

almost all cultivators subconsciously recognized Shen Qiang's position as the King of Demons.

This was not difficult to understand.

After all, thousands of years of mutual slaughter weren't going to be dispelled completely by the argument that a kitchen knife can be used both to kill and to cook; thus, almost all cultivators deep down hoped for a cultivator who could control all the demons of Huaxia and stop them from harming people.

If so, the world would be much more beautiful.

Therefore, the occasional doubts regarding Shen Qiang's qualifications as the King of Demons mostly came from the demons themselves, while the cultivators almost universally supported him.

And for the demons,

Shen Qiang and Sheng He,

after this ordeal, also became a holy land that many demons aspired to.

Because although the Dragon Group suppressed them by asserting that existence is reasonable, the status of demons within the Cultivation World might seem adequate on the surface, but in reality, it hadn't truly improved.

For example, cultivators in the Cultivation World could easily find many high-paying jobs,

but demons could only do heavy and tiring labor.

And the vast majority of them could only work for ordinary people who were unaware of their identities.

Influenced by the traditional ideology of good and evil as two separate paths, sects and noble families of real power absolutely would not employ demons, and if there were any demons among them, they were only kept as enslaved demons.

Not only that, even minor noble families had no intention of befriending demons.

It's like a cycle where the leader of the Dragon Group says everyone is equal and should get along well; everyone agrees, but then the same associations, and the same discriminations continue as before.

Just like in the Cultivation World, the two biggest Magical Treasure dealers, Cheng Xinyi and Wan Xin Sheng He, explicitly forbid any demons from shopping at their establishments.

Don't even mention whether demons can afford to buy or not, the prestigious sects simply disdain doing business with demons.

This is exactly why a few great demons from the Lucky Gate, through the broker Bianyi, went to buy things.

So, if they don't want to kneel in servitude, the only option for demons is to stay on the fringes of the Cultivation World, They visit forums too, but even the verified great demons rarely get any cultivators' attention; even when they do, cultivators generally don't respond.

If there are any responses, it's usually just some cultivators mocking them.

Besides, the only ones who really talk to them nicely are other demons.

So even on forums, the status of demons is quite low.

But now things are different.

They could clearly sense that these cultivators had almost no aversion to Shen Qiang and his Monster Company Sheng He, and they were very supportive of Shen Qiang becoming the King of Demons.

This shocked the demons.

Because, looking through history, no demon had ever reached the heights that Shen Qiang now had.

After all, in the eyes of the demons, Shen Qiang was undoubtedly a demon; the so-called cultivators were just a disguise of his identity.

Moreover, what was more impressive was that Shen Qiang had captured a foreign demon who had done many evils and simply sentenced it to the Heavenly Lantern, a method that was brutally direct and very much in line with the aesthetic of demons.

Not only that.

Many demons around Shen Qiang were not only highly skilled but also lived well, even the thin and miserable rabbit demon that looked after the back mountain and always faced hardships lived super comfortably, eating whatever it wanted and sleeping whenever it wished, which made other demons who considered themselves hundreds of times better than the rabbit demon insanely jealous.

More impressive was the big black dog.

Lately, this guy had been posting pictures on the Sky Forum, sporting a large pair of sunglasses on its nose, showing off pretentiously. His every post was like "Eating one pig a day, saving another."

It made many demons drool with envy.

Especially when the big black dog bragged about the uniforms and Flying Sword that Shen Qiang later sent him.

The forum was full of little demons going crazy.

"Crap, a Flying Sword!"

"Long Chang, produced by the Ji Family, isn't this what disciples from first-rate sects use?"

The big black dog, grinning ear to ear, then bragged about the car Shen Qiang sent him, showing off his invincible smile while wearing big sunglasses and sitting in the driver's seat of a black SUV, which the other demons, who considered themselves far superior to the big black dog, couldn't stand.

"Damn, if even this trash can get such treatment, I'd definitely be more impressive than him!"

"Frick, can't stand this anymore, anyone who stops me is going to get it, I'm heading to Sheng He!"

"Mad, Sheng He is simply the holy land for us demons!"

"Yeah, especially Shen Qiang, he's really amazing. In these hundreds of years, I have never seen a demon blend in as well as he does! If he comes to be king, I think it's viable."

As a result, Bianyi's phone was bombarded with calls.

"I am a demon, I have the strength of the Yang God Realm!"

"I am a demon, a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, I can take on three alone!"

"I am a demon, I can eat, er... kill, yes, kill any Cultivator below the Yang God Realm."

"I am a demon, Cultivators of the Mixed Element Realm can't kill me, as long as I can follow Shen Qiang, I have no special requests, as long as I can eat my fill!"

Therefore, Bianyi, numb from answering calls, maintained a forced smile as he entered Shen Qiang's office and reverently placed his phone in front of Shen Qiang, saying, "My dear boss, to ensure that your demon fans can contact you at the earliest opportunity, I've decided with a heavy heart to give my beloved phone to you."
