When the sun rose from the mountains of the Oasis Wilderness, the time had already reached seven-thirty in the morning. In the cave, the snow-white-skinned, long-legged, charming and beautiful Great Demon Qiongqi sat cross-legged before the Daoist who had remained lifelike for hundreds of years without any damage, eating the roasted lamb as if it were a delicacy.

Moreover, she seemed unsatisfied, gently sucking on her snow-white, delicate fingers before flashing a smile with two small tusks, looking at the lifelike Daoist and saying, "Master, that guy's roasted lamb is the most delicious food I've ever eaten in my life. So now, I'm suddenly thinking, if he were willing to make such tasty food for me every day, it wouldn't be so bad to go with him, would it?"

The Daoist's body, sitting cross-legged on the stone platform, maintaining a smile with an Immortal Wind Bone demeanor, still looked lifelike, with the Storage Ring on his hand seeming extraordinary in grade, gleaming in the light-green glow of the Luminous Pearl.

"You're right, you're right!" The Great Demon Qiongqi, adorable and charming, smiled happily as she stood up with a bold move, her snow-white, rounded legs outlining her youthful and graceful figure. "Then tonight I'll think of a way to scam two more to eat."

She was proud and pleased.

"Eat your damn big-headed ghost!"

At this time, by the lakeside in the mountain hollow, among the camp of nearly a hundred cultivators, a rugged man who had lined up for porridge suddenly threw the porridge on the ground angrily, shouting, "What's with this? We're cultivators, not refugees. This porridge is burnt at the bottom, with a smoky taste. How can we eat this?"

"Shhh! Shhh! Quiet down, don't let Shen Qiang hear, we can't afford to lose face!"

"Afraid of what? We've lost face a long time ago. Such a large group of us watched him eat roasted meat, eat hotpot, drink red wine, and hang out with pretty girls last night. This morning, we wanted a bowl of porridge, and it's burnt too. Damn it, I can't take it!"

"Exactly, I've had enough too! We came to be heroes, and now we're just enduring frustration. We have nothing, while look at Shen Qiang—eating meat, drinking wine, hanging out with beauties, while we have nothing. This is..."

"Shut up!" While they were complaining, Nie Yongsheng of the Kunlun Sword Sect, also holding a bowl of porridge, coldly said, "Can complaining solve the problem? Also here at the oasis, Shen Qiang has everything, not only because he has money, but more importantly because he came well-prepared for this trip."

"Every one of you just winging it, didn't bring anything. I can't believe you don't have a few hundred bucks! Can't afford to bring a pack of food?"

"Just to save money, thinking that with so many people coming together, there's no need to bring anything. Complaining now? Too late, eat if you want, if not then don't, where were you earlier?"

Everyone fell silent.

The previous rugged man snorted coldly, then turned his wrist to take out a sausage, biting it with a look of arrogance, without saying a word.

Meanwhile, on the hilltop,

Shen Qiang, changing into a black shirt, lazily crawled out of the tent.

At a glance, he saw the beautiful heroic thief Jiang Hanyang smiling and chatting with the twin-tailed girl and the mixed-race beauty.

Seeing Shen Qiang coming out, she smiled charmingly and said, "Come over for breakfast."

Shen Qiang went to the table and took a look.

Not only was there porridge, and buns, but the table was also set with twelve small dishes.

Moreover, there were dishes on both tables, making it feel just like home.

Everyone was eating happily.

Halfway through eating, Qing Xie, who had already woken up, also came over to eat. Although her face was still somewhat sallow, it was not a big problem.

However, feeling disgruntled by the hundred cultivators who used up all the firewood and caught all the wild beasts to annoy Shen Qiang, several Dragon Group Combat Team members loudly praised while eating.

"Delicious, these meat buns with thin skins and big fillings are truly tasty."

"This porridge is cooked excellently, fragrant and thick, fantastic, these twelve delicious dishes are exceptionally delightful."

"Mm-hmm, really enjoyable, and the soybean braised pig's trotters, rich but not greasy, are incredibly tasty."

Hearing these words from the hilltop, the numerous cultivators who were trying to hold back instantly couldn't anymore.

They threw aside their bowls of porridge,

"Damn it, this life can't be lived like this!"

"Can't really eat this!"

"It's all Shen Qiang's fault! Too vicious! Too extravagant! Came out to suppress demons, but he's living it up—just wait, once this is over, watch how I criticize him online. Coming to suppress demons with beauties and so much good food, it's simply a crime worthy of death!"

"Exactly, damn it, Shen Qiang looks down on people, we're all cultivators, all here to suppress demons, he's on that side living the high life while we're on this side suffering, and he just turns a blind eye, truly outrageous."

"Hmph, a crooked scoundrel capable of such shameless deeds, really no surprise."

At this point, Nie Yongsheng of the Kunlun Sword Sect packed his things coldly, "Everyone get ready to set out, twenty miles east from here is the demon's lair, proceed according to the plan and accept your fate."

"Alright! Let's go! Shen Qiang's arrogance will have him sitting on the hilltop eating North West wind, while we suppress demons and return triumphant, then we'll see what face he has left to boast in the cultivation world!"

"Well said, we'll suppress demons while he watches, just let them watch, justice lies in the hearts of the people!"

"Hmph, whoever captures the demon will surely become a great hero, as for Shen Qiang who watches, hmph, just wait for my ridicule when the time comes."

"Let him lose his reputation!"

"Losing his reputation is too lenient! After we subdue this demon, we'll flatten his demon den, see how he continues to show off!"

"Good!"

Numerous cultivators immediately packed their gear and began to set off.

The people on the hilltop watched them go. A Dragon Group Combat Team member said, "Adviser Shen, they've already departed, should we follow them soon, otherwise..."

"No need to rush." Shen Qiang smiled leisurely, finishing his meal before standing up to say, "That ferocious beast is even more formidable than expected, just these rabble wanting to capture it is utterly impossible."

As he spoke, while the others packed their gear, Shen Qiang said, "If it were so easy to handle, there would be no need for us to come."

Upon hearing this, everyone's tension temporarily eased. The exquisite mixed-race beauty softly said, "Precisely, that beast's power far exceeds expectations, so Zombie Powder is the only hope, so Mr. Shen, best not to underestimate its potency."

This made Shen Qiang increasingly curious about the Zombie Powder the mixed-race beauty had previously given him, so with a slight smile, Shen Qiang took advantage of the time when everyone was organizing to take out the small pack of Zombie Powder secretly.

As soon as he opened the packaging, Shen Qiang's Sea of Consciousness was suddenly filled with the excited cries of the Plague Source.

"Delicious, delicious, want!"

Shen Qiang was shocked as he reached his finger into the package.

The root system of the Plague Source instantly extended, and when the powder entered the Plague Source like bacteria, Shen Qiang was stunned, then filled with shock.

"Zombie Fungus! Ophiocordyceps unilateralis!"
