47: Chapter 47 If you hit me, I'll call you daddy.

Zhao Can was, after all, the second-in-command of the Blood Cloud Bandits. Facing Kang Dalei's blatant threat, his face instantly darkened as he said,

"Little brat, don't think you can act tough in front of me just because you crippled that useless Tu San with one punch. If you don't know what's good for you, I can kill you just the same."

"Kill me?" Kang Dalei let go of the bandit beneath his buttocks and walked toward Zhao Can step by step.

"Kill me? With what?"

Under Zhao Can's terrified gaze, he directly snapped the man's fingers.

"Do you have it?"

"No."

His entire arm was snapped by Kang Dalei.

"I'll ask you one more time. Do you have it?"

"Kill me if you have the guts!"

Zhao Can was still being stubborn.

But Kang Dalei was no softie. He stomped on Zhao Can't thigh, causing the entire thigh to instantly cave in.

"Wanting to die is easy, but I won't let you off that easily. Didn't you like slaughtering villages? I also like turning people into human pigs. Do you know what a human pig is?"

Zhao Can shook his head, and Kang Dalei explained,

"It means cutting off all the protruding parts of your body, leaving you like a stick. Now, let me help you."

Kang Dalei picked up a blade from the ground and grinned as he prepared to chop at Zhao Can, scaring the latter so much that he immediately chickened out.

"Handsome brother, please don't! Don't do it! I'll talk, I'll talk."

"Then speak already."

He delivered another kick.

"Thirty miles outside Dongning Prefecture. I only know that their people are there."

"Thank you for your cooperation. You can die now."

After finishing off Zhao Can, Kang Dalei searched his body and found a copper fragment.

It was indeed the very relic of a Creation Realm God-Venerable that Meng Chuan had obtained in the original novel.

However, Kang Dalei had no interest in it. It was just that since he had run into it, he might as well accept it with a smile.

Just because he wouldn't actively snatch the protagonist Meng Chuan's opportunities didn't mean he would reject them when they fell into his lap. That would be truly foolish.

"Mission accomplished. Next target: the Heavenly Demon Sect."

Kang Dalei left Dongning Prefecture and headed straight for the Heavenly Demon Sect.

After he left, a red figure appeared where he had just been standing.

Looking at the two corpses on the ground, a look of confusion appeared on Liu Qiyue's beautiful face.

"Kang Dalei, what on earth are you up to?"

Inquiring about the Heavenly Demon Sect... could he be planning to cooperate with them?

Knowing his personality, it might actually be possible.

"No, she absolutely cannot let Kang Dalei degenerate and side with the demons."

She then quickly followed him.

Thirty miles outside Dongning Prefecture, at the Dongning Prefecture Branch of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

As soon as Kang Dalei stepped inside, he felt an eerie, gloomy aura.

However, he didn't think too much about it and charged straight in.

He was here to kill demons and earn points. Eerie or not, he would kill them all first.

"Who is the one in charge here?"

Pushing open a stone door, a group of big-headed dolls came into view.

Looking at them, Kang Dalei casually drew his demon-slaying blade.

Logically speaking, killing these people wouldn't yield any demon cores. However, if he didn't make some noise, the big boss behind the scenes probably wouldn't show up.

With one strike, he slashed the crowd of demons.

As his blade momentum unleashed, a fierce gale swept through. Screams instantly echoed throughout the entire hall, and rows of big-headed dolls collapsed to the ground.

"How boring. For a branch of the prestigious Heavenly Demon Sect to be like this... and here I thought you guys were hot stuff."

Kang Dalei sheathed his demon-slaying blade and continued walking deeper inside.

The Heavenly Demon Tower had three floors in total.

The first floor had big-headed dolls of the Internal Refining Realm.

Arriving at the second floor, Kang Dalei saw nothing. But the moment he turned around, a bone burning with green flames flew toward him.

"What's the fun in killing a bunch of small fry? Come, let me play with you."

"You? You're not worthy."

Raising his demon-slaying blade, with just a single strike, Gao Laosan, the Deputy Hall Master of the Heavenly Demon Sect, was sliced in half by Kang Dalei.

Looking at his body split into two, Gao Laosan was filled with disbelief.

"How is this possible? How could you kill me with a single strike? I am a Wulou Realm expert!"

"Too much nonsense."

Sheathing his demon-slaying blade, Kang Dalei continued downward.

However, the further down he went, the more he could feel a bizarre energy—resembling human, demon, blood, and water all at once.

"The lackeys are all dead. Aren't you bosses going to show yourselves?"

Kang Dalei pushed open the last stone door of the Heavenly Gate. A wild gust of wind instantly blew out from within, followed by a burst of cackling laughter.

"So it is our Young Master Kang. Young Master Kang, instead of staying in Dongning Prefecture, what did you come to my Heavenly Demon Sect for?"

"Could it be that Xiaoxiao's Spider Demon Queen didn't serve you well, and you want Xiaoxiao to get you a more beautiful one?"

Clad in a black robe and wearing a bamboo hat, Li Xiaoxiao slowly walked out of the stone room.

Upon seeing Kang Dalei, he couldn't help but tease him.

Seeing Li Xiaoxiao, Kang Dalei hoisted his demon-slaying blade onto his shoulder and said with a serious face:

"She was quite nice, very smooth. By the way, I slaughtered your son. You're not angry, are you?"

Li Xiaoxiao laughed as well, laughing extremely loudly.

"Young Master Kang must be joking. Originally, Xiaoxiao wanted to bring him to play with you. Since you've come in person, Xiaoxiao must fulfill the duties of a proper host."

With a wave of his hand, another figure walked out from the stone room. This person was none other than the Spider Demon Son whom he had killed back in Yuyang Grotto-Heaven.

However, there was another person standing beside him.

"Liu Qiyue."

"Oh, so Young Master Kang knows her! That makes Xiaoxiao even happier."

Li Xiaoxiao clapped his hands excitedly, looking incredibly smug and annoying.

"Young Master Kang, how about you play with my good son first? If you win, I'll return your little girlfriend to you. If you lose, you can only become a pair of dead lovebirds."

Li Xiaoxiao waved his hand and sneered,

"Chop him to death, my good son."

Receiving Li Xiaoxiao's command, the Spider Demon Son immediately opened his eyes. A red light flashed within them, and a terrifying aura instantly swept through the entire hall.

The Spider Demon Son was a Second-tier Demon King.

"Holy crap, a Second-tier Demon King. Lord Li, you really think highly of me."

Kang Dalei sheathed his demon-slaying blade, pressed his palms together, and stretched his body, saying,

"However, a good son still needs his mother to teach him a proper lesson. As for me, I'd rather beat you up."

Kang Dalei summoned the demon suppressing pagoda and released the Spider Demon Queen who was cultivating inside.

Seeing this, Li Xiaoxiao doubled over with laughter, clapping his hands furiously.

"Young Master Kang, you really are shameless enough, making mother and son fight each other. You are truly cruel."

"Cut the crap. Release Liu Qiyue, and we'll call it even. Otherwise, I'll beat you so hard even your mother won't recognize you."

"Beat me so hard my mother won't recognize me? If you can even hit me, I'll call you dad."

Li Xiaoxiao was not in the least bit afraid of Kang Dalei's threat, because he was a Third-tier Demon King, equivalent to a Great Sun Realm God-Venerable of the human race.

Although Kang Dalei possessed extraordinary strength, he could at most fight a Second-tier Demon King. Against him, Kang Dalei was not yet qualified.

Kang Dalei summoned the Nine-Colored Sha Kasaya and fused a portion of it onto his arm. Without a moment's hesitation, he lunged at Li Xiaoxiao. He was so fast that Li Xiaoxiao didn't even have time to react before being struck by a punch.

And this single punch sent Li Xiaoxiao flying straight into a crevice in the stone wall.

Seeing that Kang Dalei's punch actually possessed such power, Li Xiaoxiao immediately laughed with extreme delight.

After emerging from the crevice, his expression finally returned to normal as he said,

"Young Master Kang, don't be in such a hurry. I still have some little toys for you to play with."

With that, Li Xiaoxiao looked at Liu Qiyue beside him and asked with a smile,

"If I turn you into a demon, do you think he would still strike you so heavily?"

"Pervert, what are you trying to do?"
