87: Chapter 87 White Elephant King, you finally fell for it!

The White Elephant King waved his hand. Although he was in pain inside, he still refused verbally: "We Divine Venerables have no cowards who fear death. If we cannot even endure this little bit of pain, then why go to the battlefield?"

"But..." The old woman wanted to persuade him further, but the White Elephant King had already closed his eyes.

"Xuaner, do not blame your great-grandfather for being heartless, but Xibai Pass cannot be lost."

However, as the sound of Bai Xuaner's crying grew louder, the White Elephant King's fingers finally began to tremble involuntarily.

They had been together day and night for decades, from when she was an infant waiting to be fed, to now being able to stand on her own. Every frame of those memories was in this old man's mind. But if he left Xibai Pass without authorization, what would happen if Xibai Pass was suddenly attacked?

Just then, the old woman beside him spoke again: "Your Highness, the young lady is not going to make it."

At this moment, even Yuer, Bai Xuaner's maid, became anxious.

Although she had been taught by the White Elephant King himself, she had been like a sister to Bai Xuaner over the years. Seeing such a miserable state now, she couldn't help but want to take the punishment for Bai Xuaner.

If it weren't for the fact that she was just a maid of the Bai family, she would have already persuaded the White Elephant King.

Seeing that the only remaining Divine Venerables on the pass were all urging him to save Bai Xuaner, the White Elephant King finally began to waver.

"Your Highness, go quickly." At this moment, all the soldiers on the pass knelt down simultaneously and shouted: "Your Highness, go quickly. We will hold Xibai Pass."

For a moment, there was a roar like a mountain landslide and a tsunami; for a moment, the noise was deafening; for a moment, the soldiers' morale was like a rainbow.

Seeing everyone at Xibai Pass kneeling, the White Elephant King's heart finally softened at this moment.

Bowing to the crowd, the White Elephant King shouted in a deep voice: "Everyone, just wait a moment for me. I will return immediately after saving Xuaner."

The White Elephant King finally left Xibai Pass. Just as he was leaving, the old woman, who had bowed her head to respectfully see him off, finally revealed a smile on her face—a smile of a plan successfully executed.

"White Elephant King, you finally fell for it."

With a light turn, a cold light flashed from the dagger in her hand, and Yuer, who had no idea what was happening, died on the spot.

After the old woman took care of the only Divine Venerable on the pass, the remaining soldiers naturally could not escape her poisonous hands. In front of a Divine Venerable, how could these mortals resist? In just a few exchanges, a large number of the garrison on the pass were killed or injured.

After driving back the garrison on the pass, the old woman took out a blood-red medicine bottle and ignited it directly. As the bottle burned, blood-red medicine bottles began to be released continuously over Xibai Pass.

"Demon Star, descend."

Boom. The sky suddenly turned blood red, and the demon beasts outside the city became abnormally violent.

Qingyi and Chengyi, who were killing demons and saving commoners outside the city, soon realized something was wrong. But trapped in the tide of demon beasts at this moment, they couldn't do anything at all.

"Sister." Chengyi called out. It was evident that she was somewhat worried about Kang Dalei's safety. Qingyi whispered to comfort her: "Don't worry, Master's strength is comparable to the Wujian Realm. A mere mist cannot trap him."

Inside the mist. Kang Dalei had not flown far before he met an acquaintance.

"It's you."

"Young Master Kang, I trust you have been well."

"Did you cause all of this?" Kang Dalei asked. Xiaoxiao Li giggled: "Does Young Master Kang not like it? Oh, no, that's not right. Does Daddy not like the surprise I arranged for you?"

"I like it, of course I like it." Kang Dalei said, gritting his teeth, and immediately threw a punch. Xiaoxiao Li was instantly blown into pieces.

But the next second, his body parts began to heal gradually. Seeing this, Kang Dalei gave him a combination of punches, not stopping until all the parts were reduced to powder.

He was now at Body Tempering Stage 8; beating a Third-tier Demon King was as easy as pie.

After dealing with the blocking Xiaoxiao Li, Kang Dalei continued to fly towards the altar. But shortly after he left, a tentacle actually crept out from the mud on one side. It even waved its tentacle and watched the direction Kang Dalei left for a long time.

By the time Kang Dalei arrived at the altar, Bai Xuaner was already dead. Her body was cold, and her entire Great Sun Realm true qi was exhausted.

Beside her was the Wrinkled Old Man, who had successfully advanced to the Dark Star Realm. Upon seeing Kang Dalei arrive, the Wrinkled Old Man arrogantly used Kang Dalei's demon-slaying blade to lift Bai Xuaner's corpse and throw it to him.

"Come, take a look at your fiancée for the last time." Crack. The sound of fists clenching. Kang Dalei was truly enraged this time. "You are courting death."

With his nine-colored baleful aura fully unleashed, Kang Dalei rushed directly towards the Wrinkled Old Man.

Boom! Fist to flesh, but the Wrinkled Old Man at this moment was no longer the Great Sun Realm Divine Venerable of that day.

Having devoured all the power of Bai Xuaner, a Great Sun Realm Divine Venerable, plus the corpses of various levels of Divine Venerables tied to this altar, his combat power had reached the Marquis level.

"Kid, now you and I both have Marquis-level combat power. I would like to see how you make me die." The two exchanged several moves without a clear winner, and the Wrinkled Old Man began to mock Kang Dalei frantically.

That day, he had been injured by a single punch from the person in front of him, causing him to lose the title of the number one person below the Marquis level at Xibai Pass. His hatred for Kang Dalei was beyond words. Now that he had the strength to fight the other party, he realized that being a powerhouse was actually this exciting. Those Demon Kings really hadn't lied to him.

But Kang Dalei's combat power was not just at the Marquis level. Re-condensing his baleful aura, Kang Dalei closed his eyes and exhaled gently. An extremely strong pressure began to radiate from his body.

"This punch is for your arrogance, causing my mission to fail." A thunderous punch shook the heavens and the earth. The White Elephant King, who was currently moving through the mist, was shocked. The power of this sound had likely reached the Wujian Realm.

"Who released such power? Could it be that little brat Huan?" The White Elephant King had never doubted that Kang Dalei had Wujian Realm combat power, because in his eyes, being young, at Body Tempering Stage 8, and able to display Marquis-level combat power was already considered a once-in-a-millennium prodigy. The Wujian Realm was something he dared not imagine, nor did he believe it.

Therefore, his pace couldn't help but quicken a few notches. If it really was the power released by the old man Huan, then both Bai Xuaner and Kang Dalei would be in danger.

At the altar, as Kang Dalei's punch landed, the Wrinkled Old Man simply could not believe it. However, like the White Elephant King, he did not believe that Kang Dalei had Wujian Realm combat power, assuming he had only used some secret technique to boost his power.

Therefore, at the same time Kang Dalei punched towards him, he did not retreat, but instead circulated his true qi to meet it.

Puchi. With a single punch, half of the Wrinkled Old Man's body was blown apart. He flew back several meters with a shocked expression before stopping. "How is it possible?" The Wrinkled Old Man could not accept it at all.

He had clearly broken through to the Marquis level; he clearly had the same strength as the other party. Why was his body still shattered by a single punch? "Who exactly are you? You absolutely cannot be this young. You are a clone of that old rascal, the White Elephant King."

The Wrinkled Old Man shook his head frantically, completely ignoring his injuries, as if he had fallen into a state of obsession. At this time, the White Elephant King also arrived. He had also seen the power of that punch just now. While feeling shocked, he was also extremely satisfied with choosing Kang Dalei as his son-in-law. Indeed, he had not misjudged the person.

"Old Man Huan, you had better surrender. You will never be able to surpass little brother Xiao Lei in this lifetime."

"Hahaha, White Elephant King, you finally fell for it." Upon seeing the White Elephant King, the Wrinkled Old Man's previous frustration instantly turned into joy. Since the White Elephant King had come here, wasn't Xibai Pass empty right now?
