50: Chapter 50 Shuang'er is my fiancée

Meng Mansion.

Meng Chuan's room.

"A day and a night have already passed. Why hasn't Qiyue returned yet?"

"Meng Chuan, could it be..."

In the soul space, Zhuang Sheng did not finish his sentence, but his meaning was already self-evident.

"No, I believe Qiyue. She isn't one of those loose girls."

Meng Chuan shook his head, firmly believing that Liu Qiyue would never betray him.

But Zhuang Sheng's words still made him feel a faint sense of unease.

"Could something have happened to her?"

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

A purple figure walked in.

Meng Chuan was surprised to see that it was Mei Yuanzhi.

"Fox Mei, what brings you here?"

Facing Meng Chuan's question, Mei Yuanzhi did not speak but handed him an invitation.

Seeing the contents of the note, Meng Chuan's eyes lit up immediately, and he said with some excitement:

"The Preliminary Qualifiers? Getting first place still grants the eligibility to go to Yuanchu Mountain!"

Mei Yuanzhi nodded, patted Meng Chuan's shoulder, and said:

"Only a few of us are participating in this conference. This is also our last chance to enter Yuanchu Mountain, so I won't hold back, Junior Brother Meng."

After saying this, without waiting for Meng Chuan's reply, Mei Yuanzhi left the Meng Mansion.

A Demon-Slaying Conference without Kang Dalei was the true stage for them to showcase their skills.

Looking at Mei Yuanzhi's departing back, Meng Chuan couldn't help but sigh.

It seemed they had all been traumatized by Kang Dalei.

"It's been a long time since I've seen Fox Mei this confident,"

Meng Chuan said.

Inside the soul space, Zhuang Sheng placed a white piece down, his expression very grave.

"Meng Chuan, this friend of yours seems to have developed an inner demon."

"An inner demon?" Meng Chuan, who was still feeling sentimental, instantly frowned upon hearing the soul's words and said,

"What do you mean, Zhuang Sheng? Explain clearly."

Zhuang Sheng hesitated for a long while before speaking quietly.

"He seems to have demonic Qi on him."

"Demonic Qi? How is that possible?" Meng Chuan didn't believe it.

Although he hadn't known Mei Yuanzhi for long, he could feel that the other party, like him, was someone who hated evil with a passion and had an excellent character. How could he have demonic Qi?

Zhuang Sheng shook his head again, his expression even graver than before.

"Meng Chuan, in this Cangyuan World, anything can happen. For power, to become a Divine Venerable, or for resources, they can abandon everything."

Meng Chuan still didn't believe that a genius who could comprehend a secret technique at sixteen, the pride of Dongning Prefecture, could be associated with the demon race.

"Zhuang Sheng, no matter what you say, I believe Fox Mei. If even he has sided with the demon race, is there anyone left in this world who can be trusted?"

"But Meng Chuan, they are not you. You have my help, but they don't. Once a person witnesses the absolute power that strength brings, it is very difficult for them to maintain their resolve."

Zhuang Sheng wanted to persuade him further, but Meng Chuan had already cut off his connection with him.

He would never believe that Mei Yuanzhi had anything to do with the demon race unless he saw it with his own eyes.

Seeing that Meng Chuan wouldn't listen to him, the soul could only shake its head helplessly.

At this moment, Meng Chuan remembered that Liu Qiyue had not returned yet.

"Oh no, Qiyue. I have to go find her."

Meng Chuan hurriedly left the Meng Mansion. At this moment, he couldn't take in a single word of what the soul Zhuang Sheng had said.

If he had witnessed Kang Dalei's strength alongside Liu Qiyue and Mei Yuanzhi back then, perhaps he would have believed it.

But now, how could he believe that the genius of Dongning Prefecture would collude with the demon race for power?

Among the mountains between Dongning Prefecture and Xining Prefecture, Kang Dalei held the piece of waist rope from Ruan Mi's body, walking leisurely on the dirt road with a foxtail weed in his mouth, looking incredibly like a slacker.

"Though I'm just a sheep, a sheep's cleverness lies in its imagination..."

"Three circles to the left, three circles to the right, wiggle your neck, wiggle your hips..."

"Young man, do you believe in the light?"

Suddenly, Kang Dalei, who was walking leisurely, was interrupted by an old voice.

Soon, seven people appeared, causing him to turn around and leave immediately.

"Hey, little friend, little friend, you're not doing business anymore?"

"Business my ass! You old fogies lied to me and even abandoned me to run away on your own. I refuse to cooperate with you!"

"We want to buy a thousand xuanpin stars."

"Why didn't you say so earlier, bosses?"

Hearing this, Kang Dalei, who had turned to leave, instantly changed his expression. He turned back around with a flattering smile:

"I didn't know when you bosses arrived. You didn't even notify this little brother so I could arrange for people to pick you up."

Seeing how Kang Dalei changed his face faster than flipping a page, they couldn't help but laugh and curse:

"Big brother, I told you this kid would agree, but you guys didn't believe me."

As the middle-aged man's voice fell, several elderly figures walked out of the forest.

It was still the same familiar scent, the same familiar people, but their aura was different.

"Qi Refining Stage 6."

Kang Dalei was quite surprised.

He hadn't expected them to actually break through to Body Refining Stage 6 in such a short amount of time. It was truly terrifying.

The group didn't waste any words and immediately stated their request.

"Little friend, we have come to purchase a thousand xuanpin stars. We wonder if you have that many."

"Bosses, are you looking down on me?"

Kang Dalei glanced at them, his face full of disdain.

If it were demon cores, he might not have many, but when it came to xuanpin stars, he definitely had more than enough.

Seeing Kang Dalei's confident look, the group immediately breathed a sigh of relief. They weren't afraid of traveling thousands of miles to find Kang Dalei; they were only afraid that he wouldn't have enough stock.

"We wonder when you can deliver the goods, little friend?" the old man asked.

Kang Dalei held up a finger, estimated the distance of the mountains, and then said:

"Half an hour."

Half an hour later, Death Fishing Village.

Hearing that Kang Dalei had returned, Leng Yanshuang was incredibly happy.

Because she had broken through again.

"Husband, you're back."

Leng Yanshuang excitedly pushed open the door, wanting to share some tender moments with Kang Dalei, only to see a house full of familiar faces.

"It's you?"

Leng Yanshuang recognized the Twelve Generals who had fled from Xining Prefecture at a glance, and the twelve of them also shifted their gazes to the doorway at the same time.

When everyone saw Leng Yanshuang, they all became tense.

"Little Friend Kang, what is the meaning of this?"

The elderly leader of the Twelve Generals questioned Kang Dalei.

"We came to do business. Could it be that you want to double-cross us?"

"Presumptuous!" Before Kang Dalei could speak, Leng Yanshuang unleashed her Divine Venerable pressure and glared angrily at the leading old man, saying,

"If you lot dare to disrespect my husband again, I don't mind killing you all."

The pressure of an Undying Realm Divine Venerable instantly dumbfounded the twelve of them.

"You broke through to Divine Venerable, and even reached the Undying Realm? How is this possible?"

"The old man couldn't believe it, but he was all too familiar with that pressure."

Because back then, he was also an Undying Realm Divine Venerable.

But before the old man could remain shocked for long, the word "husband" from Leng Yanshuang's mouth shook him again. He immediately shifted his gaze back to Kang Dalei and said:

"Little friend, you..."

Kang Dalei nodded, then waved at Leng Yanshuang, gesturing for her to sit on his lap.

They had thought that Leng Yanshuang calling Kang Dalei her husband was shocking enough, but when she obediently sat on his lap without a hint of temper, blushing like a young maiden, everyone could no longer sit still.

"That's right, Shuanger is my fiancée."

Meeting the old man's questioning gaze, Kang Dalei immediately admitted it.

Instantly, a clamor broke out inside the wooden cabin.

"You actually managed to win over the daughter of the Leng family. You are truly a genius."

"Kid, you are truly awesome. To even be able to handle a girl like Leng Yanshuang, I admire you, I really do."

"This kid actually made Leng Yanshuang his exclusive woman. He truly is the best successor for our Twelve Generals."
