41: Section 41
The dragon pearl instantly transformed into gold, and the endless Dragon Qi inside poured into Ao Qian's body. This was formed after his mother died, making it easier to absorb due to their shared lineage.
In just one month, Ao Qian's Cultivation, originally that of a Level 9 Demon Beast, skyrocketed to a Level 2 Demon King. This speed of Cultivation surpassed many elites of the Dragon Clan.
"Actually, this King discovered long ago that the Mermaid Princess was fake. I didn't expect it to be you, you stinking snake. What a small world."
"I originally intended to kill you directly, but I didn't expect the Sixth Princess to suddenly charge out and ruin this King's plan."
Xiao Bai sneered, "Yo, you are truly clever, and your acting skills are superb. I really want to award you an Oscar for Best Actor."
"If Yu Ji hadn't pleaded for you last time, how could you have been unscathed? You returned and didn't repent, and now you want to repay kindness with enmity. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
Ao Qian cursed angrily, "Since ancient times, history is written by the victors. I blame your womanish benevolence."
"This cannot be blamed on this King. I originally intended to let the Mermaid Princess go, but her older brother was truly too annoying. He took the initiative to deliver his sister to my doorstep. How could this King be embarrassed to refuse?"
His eyes were filled with Killing Intent as he glared at Yu Ji, "You bitch, instead of being a good princess consort, you insist on messing around with this stinking snake. Have you no shame?"
"Once I kill this stinking snake and take you back, I will make you wish for death but be unable to die, becoming a plaything for the male Yao Beasts of this sea area."
Bai Su decisively transformed into her original form and blocked in front of Xiao Bai, "Be careful, he is a Level 2 Demon King. Although he is the offspring of a Dragon and Snake hybrid, his Dragon Clan Bloodline occupies the vast majority. He cannot be underestimated."
"Another white snake has come."
Ao Qian mocked, "You stinking snake, you have quite the luck with women. Last time it was a green snake, and this time you actually changed? You know how to play even better than this King."
"Commander Yu Biao, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and capture that bitch Yu Ji. I will deal with these two snakes."
Yu Biao and his subordinate Sea Monsters forced Yu Ji into a corner.
"Little sister, stop resisting and come back with big brother. His Highness the Eighth Prince likes you so much and even held such a grand wedding for you. Why must you be so cheap and mess around with a snake?"
"For the sake of us being siblings, I will plead for you. You may be spared the death penalty, but you cannot escape punishment. Don't even think about being the princess consort anymore."
Yu Ji, who had always been obedient and quiet, suddenly became ferocious.
She roared at Yu Biao, "You are a traitor to the Merfolk, not my big brother. After Father King exits seclusion, he will hold you accountable."
"Even if I die today, I will not go back with you."
Yu Ji suddenly drew her Fish-Gut Sword and held it against her own neck.
"Don't come over, or I will die right in front of you."
Ao Qian looked down from above and scolded Yu Biao, "Idiot, capture her alive, don't kill her. This King hasn't enjoyed her yet."
Yu Biao signaled the Yao Beasts behind him to step back, "My good little sister, don't be impulsive. Let's talk this over properly."
"Mr. Xiao, I will deal with this evil Dragon; you go save Yu Ji."
Facing a situation where the enemy was numerous and they were few, Xiao Bai decisively summoned the Level 2 Demon King Crystal Snow Ape. From Bai Su's eyes, one could see her surprise.
Ever since she met Xiao Bai, he constantly surprised her. With the strength of a Level 8 Demon Beast, he was actually able to subdue a Level 2 Demon King as a Puppet.
"Attack for me..."
Xiao Bai gave the combat order to the Crystal Snow Ape. The Crystal Snow Ape pounded its sturdy chest hard and pounced towards Ao Qian, and then Bai Su also decisively launched an attack.
"Just ordinary goods."
Ao Qian emitted red Killing Intent from within his body, and his strength continuously skyrocketed. He did not take Bai Su and the Snow Ape seriously.
Xiao Bai, having temporarily freed himself, pounced on Yu Biao. His snake spear pierced directly through his body, killing and retreating the dozen or so Sea Monsters that had surrounded him.
"You really are a piece of fish trash. In order to cling to the Dragon Clan, you are willing to sacrifice your own sister."
Yu Biao spat out a mouthful of blood and fell dead in front of Yu Ji, unable to close his eyes in death.
Yu Ji felt secretly heartbroken and secretly shed a few tears from the corners of her eyes. She closed Yu Biao's wide-open dead fish eyes, tied a stone to him, and let him sink to the bottom of the water, which could be considered returning to his roots.
"Crab Boss, are you not going to leave with your subordinates?"
This voice was very familiar. Crab Boss suddenly came back to his senses, "So it is Old Turtle Servant."
He raised his large pincers, signaling the Sea Monsters behind him to retreat.
"Retreat, retreat, retreat, let's go."
This fit Crab Boss's principle of doing things as a shrewd businessman: do not offend either side.
There were a dozen or so confidants left around Ao Qian, watching from the sidelines, not daring to go up and help.
He then set his sights on the Mermaid Princess. She was weaker and easier to deal with, but he was afraid of Xiao Bai, this White Python.
"Oh my, I was wondering why you were all so dilly-dallying; so you were fighting over here."
In the sky, Tu Shan You You brought a few fox demons to support, but they couldn't help much. They simply dared not approach the battle between the Level 2 Demon Kings.
"Why are you here?"
"Grandfather asked me to come out and scout the situation. I thought you were making babies with the white snake and didn't want to come back."
Xiao Bai rolled his eyes, "Nonsense, how could I be such a snake that doesn't distinguish between public and private matters?"
"You take the Mermaid Princess back first; you can't help much here."
Tu Shan You You shook her head repeatedly, "I dare not. Fish need to drink water, and the journey is long. Don't come blaming me if she dies."
Xiao Bai scratched his scalp, feeling it made some sense. He made the golden bowl grow larger and filled it with water, letting Yu Ji lie inside, which could also better protect her.
"This way there will be no problem. Hurry up and leave; it's not safe here."
Tu Shan You You gave a thumbs up, "You're awesome. As long as it's a beautiful demon, you want to take it back regardless of the species. Tu Shan Village is about to become your harem."
Tu Shan You You brought the Mermaid Princess and returned to Tu Shan Village without looking back. She just wanted to see what kind of tricks Xiao Bai could pull off after bringing so many female demons back to Tu Shan Village.
Chapter 56: This Dragon is Cheating, Right?
Without any worries behind him, Xiao Bai could focus on dealing with Ao Qian. This Mixed-breed Dragon was much stronger than before.
Bai Su and the Crystal Snow Ape ganged up on Ao Qian at the same time but didn't gain any advantage, and the Crystal Snow Ape was even injured.
"This King hates snakes the most; I must peel off all your skin."
Xiao Bai waited for an opportunity on the side to launch a sneak attack. With his Level 8 Demon Beast Cultivation, he dared not confront Ao Qian head-on. Crossing several Ranks would easily lead to being insta-killed.
Ao Qian stared viciously at Bai Su with Killing Intent, unable to wait to use his sharp dragon claws to tear open her belly, peel off the snake skin on the spot to make a python robe, and eliminate the resentment in his heart.
If not for Bai Su's restraint just now, Tu Shan You You would not have been able to leave safely with Yu Ji.
Ao Qian's attention was entirely on Bai Su. Although the Crystal Snow Ape was also a Level 2 Demon King, its strength was significantly weaker than Bai Su's, so it was naturally not taken seriously by him.
"Damn it, a female snake demon who is a Level 2 Demon King is actually this formidable."
Ao Qian did not notice at all that Xiao Bai was slowly approaching. After taking the Bone-Shrinking Pill, Xiao Bai's body size had become much smaller.
In front of the giant dragon over thirty meters long, Xiao Bai was like a small earthworm.
"Take this, let's see if you still act cool."
Xiao Bai sprayed high-concentration anti-wolf potion into Ao Qian's eyes. It was instantly burning and painful, and his eyeballs swelled up like bull testicles.
Ao Qian screamed in pain and plummeted straight from the sky, rolling in the snow.
"Ah, my eyes."
It was all medicine concocted by that weird old man Tu Shan Mingyi. As long as Xiao Bai told him what effect he needed, other than Medicinal Pills that could increase Cultivation, those miscellaneous ones were no problem.
Xiao Bai had stored quite a few of these strange potions in his qiankun bag. Catching the enemy off guard often yielded very good results.
"Su Su, hurry, do it."
"Understood."
Bai Su was quick-witted and swooped down. She summoned the White Sun-Shining Sword and thrust it toward the center of Ao Qian's eyebrows.
In terms of original form confrontation, Bai Su was far inferior to Ao Qian. After all, he was of the Dragon Clan, and his Cultivation was not lower than hers. It was definitely not something a White Python could confront head-on.
Ao Qian let out a roar, and endless red Killing Intent erupted from his body. He activated berserk mode, his eyes turning scarlet. He used his sharp dragon claws to scratch Bai Su's back, leaving two deep gashes.
Bai Su was sent flying dozens of meters away. Xiao Bai decisively flew forward to catch her, almost crashing into the snow mountain.
"Haha, a snake demon wants to sneak attack this King? It's simply wishful thinking."
"Your appearance and figure are truly stunning, not a bit inferior to that bitch Yu Ji. It's a pity, this King has lost interest in female demons now; you must die today."
"Evil Dragon Devour, obediently become this King's nourishment."
A vortex appeared in Ao Qian's mouth, more powerful than a Category 17 typhoon. Stones and ice shards constantly flew into his mouth from the surroundings. A waterspout quickly formed on the narrow water surface, pouring into Ao Qian's mouth.
"No one can run away today."
Ao Qian was completely crazy, not even sparing his own subordinates. They were sucked into his mouth, and the air was filled with various tragic screams.
"Your Highness Eighth Prince, spare my life."
"Eighth Prince..."
Just now, Bai Su had been injured by Ao Qian, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth. The strong suction force tore open the clothes on her back, continuously widening the wound.
The originally bright red blood slowly began to turn black. The fingernails on the dragon claws were filled with deadly poison. If Xiao Bai hadn't blocked it, her blood would have been drained.
"Su Su, hold on!"
One end of Xiao Bai's tail was wrapped around a huge rock, and the body near his head coiled around Bai Su's body, preventing her from being sucked into Ao Qian's mouth.
"Mr. Xiao, please let go. I am poisoned, and it has already invaded my body. I cannot escape this time; this dragon is much stronger than we imagined."
"Cut the crap. You are my sister-in-law. If something happens to you, how can I explain it to Xiao Qing when I go back?"
Xiao Bai held onto Bai Su tightly and summoned the Crystal Snow Ape to block in front.
The Crystal Snow Ape picked up rocks and threw them at Ao Qian, trying to fill Ao Qian's stomach in this way, but never expected this guy to be like a bottomless pit.
In the end, it even swallowed the Crystal Snow Ape. The Puppet that Xiao Bai had worked so hard to capture was just gone like that.
"Haha, you dare to show off such petty tricks in front of this King? The Dragon Clan is the eternal god of the Yao Beast world. You low-level Yao Beasts are like ants."
Ao Qian laughed arrogantly. This time he was determined to wash away his humiliation. He fixed his gaze tightly on Xiao Bai; only by devouring them both could he eliminate the hatred in his heart.
"Let's see how long you can hold on."
Ao Qian continued to increase the suction force. The surrounding thousand-year-old glaciers tore open, triggering a massive avalanche.
Xiao Bai took out all kinds of strange poisons from his qiankun bag and threw them into Ao Qian's mouth.
