93: Chapter 93 I know, senior, I know.

Seeing Kang Dalei arrive, a flash of determination crossed Bai Xuaner's eyes. With a flick of her arm, she tossed a severed head at Kang Dalei's feet.

"He is dead."

Kang Dalei looked at the head thrown at his feet, took out the Dragon-Seeking Ruler to inspect it, and smiled upon confirming it was indeed a Marquis-level Divine Venerable.

"How did you do it?"

"Assassination."

Bai Xuaner only said two words. However, seeing the weak aura surrounding her, it seemed that even with a surprise assassination, killing a Marquis-level Divine Venerable in such a short time must have come at a heavy cost.

"That alone is not enough."

After verifying the head, Kang Dalei entered the Marquis Nanyue Estate, rummaged through the rooms, and found the Marquis Nanyue Estate's treasury.

The moment he opened the treasury, a flash of silver light nearly blinded Kang Dalei.

"Damn, I'm rich."

Just as Kang Dalei was preparing to collect all these treasures, a voice immediately made him feel displeased.

"You can only take the demon cores. These all belong to the Marquis Nanyue Estate; you cannot take them away."

Kang Dalei turned his head and looked at Bai Xuaner, speechless.

"Are you stupid?"

"I don't care. If you dare to privately misappropriate the relics of a Marquis, I will attack you."

"Damn it."

Kang Dalei was instantly so angry he laughed.

"Little girl, I've been mixing in the Cangyuan World for so long, and there is nothing that I, Kang Dalei, cannot take."

"If you dare to take them, I will activate the Primordial Spirit Avatar left behind by my great-grandfather."

Bai Xuaner did not back down at all. In her view, killing Marquis Nanyue was justified because he had forcibly seized Kang Dalei's war contributions. If Kang Dalei took the things from the Marquis Nanyue Estate now, how would he be any different from the dead Marquis Nanyue?

However, for a Great Sun Realm cultivator to try to pull tricks in front of Kang Dalei, wasn't that underestimating him too much?

"Suppress."

His combat pressure directly locked onto Bai Xuaner, rendering her unable to move.

"Stay put. If you look for trouble again, I don't mind teaching you a lesson on behalf of the White Elephant King."

"You bastard."

Seeing Kang Dalei acting shamelessly and daring to bind her with his combat pressure, Bai Xuaner was shaking with rage.

"Kang Dalei, you cannot do this. If you continue like this, I will send you to Yuanchu Mountain."

But regarding her warning, Kang Dalei was solely focused on collecting treasures and completely ignored her, only stretching satisfactorily after the treasury was picked clean.

"Alright, let's go."

"You!" Bai Xuaner was currently furious and refused to listen to a word Kang Dalei said.

"You can leave if you want. I am going to report you for embezzling the Marquis Estate's inheritance."

"Report me?" Kang Dalei now truly realized that this Bai Xuaner was foolishly cute.

"You were the one who killed him, and you were the one who broke into the Marquis Estate. If you really want to report me, you're the principal offender, and I'm just an accomplice. Plus, with my connections, I'll be out in two or three days. You, however, are different. Even with the White Elephant King vouching for you, killing a Marquis-level Divine Venerable is a serious crime. I'm afraid you won't be leaving Yuanchu Mountain for three to five years. Report me? Think with your brain, whose crime is greater between the two of us?"

"I..."

"I what? Hurry up and lead the way."

After being shouted at by Kang Dalei, Bai Xuaner immediately behaved.

She glared at Kang Dalei with dissatisfaction and no longer dared to talk about reporting him.

However, upon arriving at the main courtyard of the Marquis Estate, this guy became restless again.

He grabbed a direct descendant of the Marquis Estate and started asking.

"Did your Marquis Estate embezzle the military supplies of Nanyue City?"

"This..." Seeing the descendant hesitate, Kang Dalei immediately had the answer in his heart.

"It seems you did embezzle. How about you share half with me?"

Bai Xuaner had originally thought he was going to say something important, but it turned out he was asking for half of the embezzled goods.

"Kang Dalei, that's enough."

Bai Xuaner was truly angry. She had seen embarrassing people, but never anyone this embarrassing.

"Can you be a bit more honest? Can you have some ambition? You are a dignified Marquis after all, is that all the ambition you have? Hand over the list of those in your Marquis Estate who embezzled, and I will spare your life."

Halfway through, Bai Xuaner suddenly changed her tone, nearly making the two of them throw out their backs.

"This girl is even more ruthless than him."

Kang Dalei immediately gave her a thumbs up in admiration and leaned in towards Bai Xuaner with a cheeky grin, saying:

"It has to be you! How about we split this batch of supplies fifty-fifty?"

Bai Xuaner rolled her eyes at him and said unhappily:

"What are you thinking? If this Marquis Estate really embezzled, then we should report it to the Great Zhou Dynasty and have His Majesty send someone down to investigate."

"Also, you'd better be honest. Embezzling military funds from your own city can lead to beheading."

Bai Xuaner didn't forget to warn Kang Dalei.

However, if she wanted to use these words to fool ordinary people, that would be fine, but saying them to him, Kang Dalei could only give her two words.

"Hehe."

"What do you mean?"

Seeing Kang Dalei look somewhat disdainful of her words, her young miss temper flared up again.

"Kang Dalei, I'm warning you."

The warning had just finished when Kang Dalei's fist arrived in front of her. With one punch, just one punch, Bai Xuaner's entire body was sent flying out of the Marquis Estate.

"Why so much nonsense?"

Watching Bai Xuaner fly away, Kang Dalei grabbed a direct descendant of the Marquis Estate and began to interrogate him.

"Speak, where are the things?"

"I, I don't kn..."

Before the word 'know' could escape, Kang Dalei punched down again, and the descendant spat out blood and fell down.

"When I ask, answer properly. Must you force me to use the Soul Search Technique?"

The Soul Search Technique was unleashed, and soon information about a name appeared in Kang Dalei's mind.

"The Matriarch of the Marquis Estate is actually an Undying Realm Divine Venerable."

With a flash, he arrived at the backyard of the Marquis Estate. It took almost no time to find the Marquis Estate Divine Venerable, who was gathering a group of experts for a short meeting.

"Yo, having a meeting? Are you studying how to avenge your husband, Marquis Nanyue?"

After arriving at the main hall, Kang Dalei casually found a place and sat down.

At first, no one noticed him, until a loud laugh alerted the group of Marquis Estate experts.

However, by the time they were alert, the entire space had already been controlled by Kang Dalei.

"One question, concerning all your lives: where are the military supplies that Marquis Nanyue embezzled from Nanyue City? Second, where is the ledger of the embezzlement? Third, how many people participated in the embezzlement? Whoever speaks lives."

"Kid, where are you from? How dare you run wild in the Marquis Estate."

"Die."

As soon as the words fell, the person withered and turned into ashes.

"Continue, it's still those three questions."

"Kid, who exactly are you? Why did you come to my Marquis Estate?"

The Marquis Estate Matriarch, that is, the Undying Realm Divine Venerable, stood out.

"Die."

It was the same; he didn't waste any extra words on her. With one look, her skull was pierced, and her spiritual power was drained.

"She's dead."

"The Divine Venerable is dead."

"This, this..."

The moment the Marquis Estate Divine Venerable died, everyone in the main hall had an expression of unbelievable shock.

A Divine Venerable, a high and mighty Divine Venerable, died from just one look. How is this possible?

"Senior."

"Die."

It was the same; the Wulou Realm cultivator, who was just preparing to butter him up, had his body turn into ashes.

"You continue, it's still those three questions."

At this, everyone went quiet. No one dared to step up, and no one dared to glare at Kang Dalei, but that was not enough.

Seeing that no one spoke, Kang Dalei pointed a finger, and that Wulou Realm cultivator who was keeping his head down immediately fell to the ground, dead.

"If you don't speak, you will die just the same. Continue."

"I know, Senior, I know, please spare my life."

"Speak?"
