102: Chapter 102 This young lady is the legitimate granddaughter of a prince.

"Go to hell with your 'behave'. You dare to flirt with my woman? Kid, give me your name. No nameless ghosts ever die by my hands."

After a frantic search, Zhang Pao and his group, who had been swindled out of 100,000 taels of silver notes by Kang Dalei, finally managed to locate Kang Dalei and his party, who were currently buying clothes at a clothing store, with the help of his lackeys.

Just as they found this swindler, they saw him bullying the goddess he had been chasing for so long. Needless to say, Zhang Pao was furious.

"We'll settle the old and new scores together. Hack him to death for me!"

Before Kang Dalei could say anything, Zhang Pao couldn't help but order them to hack him down.

"Wait." Just as several lackeys rushed up to strike, Kang Dalei shouted decisively, then pushed Bai Xuaner, who was beside him, forward.

"One hundred thousand taels a day to accompany you for meals, shopping, and watching plays. It's a good deal, right?"

"This..."

Seeing the beautiful and well-proportioned Bai Xuaner in front of him, Zhang Pao hesitated for a moment.

"You're still hesitating? Bai Xuaner—not to mention her great-grandfather is a King, she herself is a Great Sun Realm Divine Venerable. Aren't you tempted?"

"I, I, I..." Looking at Bai Xuaner's pure and capable appearance, it would be a lie to say Zhang Pao wasn't tempted.

"It's just that one hundred thousand taels a day seems a bit too expensive. My monthly allowance is only two million taels."

Gulp. Now it was Kang Dalei's turn to be stunned.

"What did you just say? How much is your monthly allowance?"

"Two million taels!"

"Holy crap, what does your family actually do?"

"The number one richest in the world, we do trade."

Bai Xuaner stepped on Kang Dalei's foot and immediately added.

"Zhang, let me tell you one more time: stop bothering me. Did you hear that clearly?"

"Xuanxuan, but I really like you."

"But I don't like you."

Bai Xuaner's ideal was to find a man more outstanding than herself, not some son of the world's richest man.

"Xuanxuan, please give me a chance. I swear, as long as you enter my Zhang family, I can get you whatever you want in the future."

"For example?" Bai Xuaner looked at him playfully.

Zhang Pao thought for a moment and said, "Rare treasures, peerless divine weapons. I remember a few days ago, my father found a high-grade chain mail in Yizhou. I'll have someone send it to you tomorrow."

"Is it worth as much as this?" Bai Xuaner couldn't be bothered to chat with him and took out the xuanyuan armor that Kang Dalei had given her.

The moment the armor appeared, a magnificent holy aura radiated from the inside out.

After all, Zhang Pao was the son of a wealthy merchant, and he recognized at a glance that this item was extraordinary.

"Xuanxuan, where did you get this?"

Bai Xuaner glanced at Kang Dalei and said, "He gave it to me."

"You."

Upon learning it was a gift from Kang Dalei, Zhang Pao didn't believe it for a second.

"He gave it to you? How is that possible? He's just a swindler; how could he possibly produce something so valuable?"

Bai Xuaner was helpless and shook her head while staring at Zhang Pao.

"Zhang, he is indeed a jerk sometimes, very fickle, and always bullies me, but you and him are really not comparable. Not at all."

"Xuanxuan."

"Don't call me that." Bai Xuaner was truly getting angry.

"If you keep pestering me like this, I'm going to find Uncle Zhang."

"But Xuanxuan, my father supports me in marrying you. He said that as long as I marry you, I will be the head of the Zhang family, and from then on, I will have the final say in the Zhang family's business."

"You, why don't you understand?"

Bai Xuaner took a deep breath, trying hard to suppress the annoyance in her heart.

"I don't like you, I don't. Even if I'm bullied by Kang Dalei every day, I still won't like you."

"You." Zhang Pao's heart broke. When Bai Xuaner said she would rather be bullied by someone else than like him, Zhang Pao felt as if his heart had suddenly stopped beating.

"Who is Kang Dalei? Why does he deserve you? You are the granddaughter of a King's family, a Great Sun Realm Divine Venerable, and the defender of Xibai Pass—the youngest Great Sun Realm Divine Venerable. Why him?"

"Because Kang Dalei is the youngest Marquis-level Divine Venerable. He was enfeoffed as a Marquis before the age of twenty. He is also a Yuanchu Mountain Purple Robe holder, a Marquis Order holder, once killed ten thousand high-level demonic beasts within three breaths, and is The Worlds No. 1 Inspection Envoy."

Crack!

Everyone present was shocked.

It wasn't just shock; they were completely stunned.

Every single thing Bai Xuaner mentioned was enough to make one's name resound throughout the entire Cangyuan World. Who would have thought they would all happen to one person?

"So, you would rather be bullied by him than accept me?"

After Zhang Pao came back to his senses, he said dejectedly.

Bai Xuaner did not deny it and nodded slightly.

"That's right."

"But, if you like Kang Dalei, why are you with this swindler? Are you just making excuses? Actually, you like me, right?"

Bai Xuaner shook her head and exhaled gently, saying, "Because he is Kang Dalei."

Boom.

Zhang Pao's mind exploded, and he didn't know how to describe himself at this moment.

If the person in front of him was Kang Dalei, then he was the assassin who had tried to kill the current Marquis.

Then Kang Dalei now had every opportunity and excuse to kill him without being held accountable.

Moreover, rumors said Kang Dalei didn't even blink when killing Divine Venerables, let alone him, who was just the son of a wealthy merchant.

Zhang Pao knelt before Kang Dalei, his heart filled with unspeakable bitterness.

"Marquis."

"If you like her, chase her. Anyway, Bai Xuaner is still single."

"Kang Dalei!" Bai Xuaner said angrily.

Zhang Pao's eyes lit up, and he instantly regained his spirit.

"Marquis, are you serious?"

Kang Dalei nodded and pulled the angry Bai Xuaner aside, saying, "The son of the richest man can save us so much trouble. Just agree to him first and borrow a month's allowance to spend."

"I don't want to. If you want to, you go." Bai Xuaner refused.

Letting her lead him on? Does she, Bai Xuaner, look like a player? Does she?

"If you don't go, I won't have money to fight the noble families. If I don't have money to fight the noble families, we're both finished."

"How much?" Bai Xuaner asked.

Kang Dalei had originally wanted to hold up one finger and ask for ten million taels, but seeing Bai Xuaner's flushed, angry face, he was afraid she wouldn't do it, so he held up five fingers instead.

"At least five..."

Before he could finish the word 'five', Bai Xuaner agreed immediately.

"Fifty million taels, right? Wait for me."

Bai Xuaner walked away, and Kang Dalei was dumbfounded.

What is going on? Does this girl really have fifty million taels?

After a while, Bai Xuaner walked back, carrying a large, bulging bag.

"Here, fifty million taels. That's enough, right?"

Kang Dalei opened the package and looked inside, instantly stunned.

"Silver... silver notes."

"Hmph, don't ever use money to bother me again."

Bai Xuaner tossed her head disdainfully. She looked incredibly arrogant.

Kang Dalei suddenly called out to her, looking suspicious, and said, "Bai Xuaner, you didn't go and rob someone, did you? I'm telling you, we Divine Venerables cannot go around forcibly seizing the property of commoners."

Bai Xuaner scoffed, turned around, and led the group of lackeys, who had changed into clean clothes, away. Before leaving, she didn't forget to mock Kang Dalei.

"I am the granddaughter of a King. A mere fifty million taels is something I can easily afford."

"Uh."

Kang Dalei had no temper left. She was rich.

In the end, he could only pat the shoulder of Zhang Pao, who was looking at him with expectation, and sighed, "Sorry, brother, I can't help you. Who told her to have more allowance than you? Find someone else you like in the future."

Kang Dalei left.

Crack.

Zhang Pao, who had just gathered his little heart back together, felt his heart completely die at this moment.
