little white: "..."
It didn't know how to answer.
However, Qin Xiao then said, "Let's stop here."
"Okay."
little white promptly stopped.
"little white, I now have a plan and I'm not sure if you are willing to cooperate."
"Willing."
little white answered without hesitation.
Its hatred for the killer whale king was just too deep.
If it meant killing the killer whale king, even if it had to perish together with it, little white would not refuse.
Qin Xiao's test had given it this opportunity, and it swore to seize it.
"Good, seeing that you're so determined, I can rest assured."
Qin Xiao nodded slightly, pleased with little white's attitude.
"In a moment, I will set up a powerful technique here, but I'm afraid that if we're in the Demon Sea Area, the evil killer whales might notice and become alert, making it ineffective.
You'll have to lure the killer whale king here yourself. Also, have your tribespeople ambush fifty miles away. Once the killer whale king is killed, lead your tribespeople in a counterattack."
"Don't worry, my lord, I understand."
little white replied solemnly.
In its voice was a determination akin to facing death without fear.
Going into the Demon Sea Area to lure out the killer whale king was a dangerous task.
"Go."
Having said that, Qin Xiao's toes lightly touched the broad back of little white.
He flew into the sky.
Only then did little white notice, at some unknown time, the sky above had become covered with dark clouds.
Boom.
Suddenly, a thunderclap sounded, and purple lightning bolts, like ferocious giant pythons, danced wildly.
Eventually, these lights converged in one place, and right above Qin Xiao.
In an instant, Qin Xiao's figure had vanished, replaced by a giant thunderball.
"What a powerful aura."
"If I were hit by that, I wouldn't die then I would be seriously injured, right?"
little white looked up, feeling very shaken.
Inside the thunderball, it sensed a terrifying destructive force.
However.
This was only the beginning; it saw Qin Xiao's figure walk out from the thunderball and then regroup in another direction, gathering the Thunderous Force.
Qin Xiao performed this operation a total of seven times, and now seven giant thunderballs appeared in the sky.
Quite a lot of time had passed.
"What kind of arrangement is this? It looks like a ladle."
little white grew even more puzzled.
"What are you standing around for? Why aren't you going?"
Qin Xiao frowned.
Here he was, laboriously setting up the arrangement, and was little white simply watching the spectacle?
Moreover, even if it was merely watching, the Lei Emperor's Art from which the Thunder Turned into Stars was derived was beyond its ability to comprehend, wasn't it?
Even, let alone little white, even Qin Xiao himself was unfamiliar with this newly comprehended technique.
Yes.
This technique had emerged in his mind as he awakened.
Unlike the Nine Heavens Tribulation Light, this technique was certainly a weapon for group attacks, perfectly suited to deal with the tribes of the killer whale king.
Given the Cultivation Level of the killer whale king, it didn't deserve to face the Nine Heavens Tribulation Light.
The downside, however, was that the charging time was too long.
It was also because his Cultivation Level was too weak and his understanding of this technique was not deep, hence it took a lot of effort to deploy this technique, which had been weakened countless times.
But it was enough to cope with the current crisis.
"My lord, please wait a moment, I'm on my way."
little white no longer hesitated and plunged into the deep sea.
With one movement, it had already traveled three to five miles.
With another movement, it had disappeared from sight.
Qin Xiao waved his hand and the dark clouds thickened, veiling the seven thunderballs arranged in the Big Dipper formation.
"Everything is in place, except for the right moment."
"little white, don't let me down."
...
After a long, long while.
Qin Xiao, who was hovering over the sea, suddenly furrowed his brows.
"They're here!"
He spoke in a voice only he could hear.
After a moment, in his line of sight, large figures could be seen splashing across the sea.
At the front was the familiar figure of little white, the Devil Soul Great White Shark king, followed by a host of evil killer whales with greyish-black skin.
An intense chase ensued.
"Whoosh..."
It was getting closer, Qin Xiao could already see the spray from the chase and hear the sound of the waves breaking.
His frown deepened as a result.
Because Little White was injured.
The sight of those huge, ghastly gashes was startling, and the moment fresh blood flowed out, it merged with the seawater, which those pursuing evil killer whales gulped down along with the blood-tinged water.
They became even more excited.
Their pupils were blood-red, filled with a thirst for blood.
"My lord, they are upon us."
"The killer whale king is also here, right below us in the water."
Little White's anxious voice resonated beside Qin Xiao's ear.
"You retreat to fifty li away and prepare to counterattack with our people. Leave them to me."
Qin Xiao, watching the hundreds of huge figures approaching menacingly from afar, was completely unfazed, his eyes ice-cold.
"Be careful, sir."
Without any hesitation, Little White brushed past Qin Xiao and swiftly headed toward the distance.
In contrast, the hundreds of evil killer whales came to a halt.
They had to stop.
The strong aura emanating from Qin Xiao's body made them sense a crisis.
Nine Soul Rings could not be ignored by them.
Boom!
A gigantic waterspout soared into the sky, causing many of the evil killer whales to flee the area.
As the spray settled, Qin Xiao saw a massive figure rise out of the water.
It was over thirty meters in size, its grey-black skin gleaming with a metallic luster.
Upon seeing this colossal creature, Qin Xiao finally spoke up, "Killer whale king."
"Hahaha, I was wondering where this coward that used to cower near Sea God's Island got the courage to intrude into my Demon Sea Area? So, it's a collaboration with humans, aiming to take me on together."
"But who gave you the courage? A mere human Titled Douluo dares to stand in my way."
The killer whale king spoke in human tongue and let out a loud laugh.
It was incredibly arrogant, not taking Qin Xiao seriously at all.
No.
To be precise, the killer whale king did not take Qin Xiao and Little White seriously at all.
"Die!"
The killer whale king bellowed in rage, stirring up the waves.
A gigantic wave, as high as thirty to fifty meters, crashed toward Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao remained composed, but his mind went on high alert.
Danger!
Purple halos flashed in his eyes, and he saw right through the waves in a moment.
There was no longer anything obscuring his view from the killer whale king.
He clearly saw the killer whale king concentrating its strength on its tail and with a fierce flick, a blade thin as a cicada's wing was concealed within the wave, slicing towards Qin Xiao.
Demon Orc Whale Axe...
If Qin Xiao remembered correctly, that was the name of this soul skill.
It might not seem very grandiose, but its attack power was not to be underestimated.
If a Titled Douluo like Snake Spear or Spiked Pig were struck, they would be instantly killed.
"Titan Cangqiong Cannon!"
Qin Xiao didn't dare to be negligent and immediately activated the soul skill of his left arm bone.
The same hundred thousand-year soul skill, powered by his current Soul Power, was incomparably more formidable than before.
Boom!
The wave was shattered, and with it, the killer whale king's soul skill Demon Orc Whale Axe within the wave collapsed.
Of course.
The soul skill Titan Cangqiong Cannon Qin Xiao had released also dissipated along with it.
"So strong, to think you could stand equal with me?"
Having failed to land a hit, the killer whale king was taken aback.
As it looked ahead again, it found that Qin Xiao was no longer in sight.
"Eh? Where is he?"
"Could it be that after the strike, realizing he was no match for me, he simply fled?"
"But that's a bit too straightforward, isn't it?"
The killer whale king was initially stunned, then couldn't help but speculate.
Suddenly, it even felt a bit of sympathy for the devil Soul of the great white shark king. That poor fellow had found such an unreliable ally.
"Roar, roar, roar..."
Out of the blue, while the killer whale king was lost in its wild thoughts, cries from its kin rang out nearby.
It understood them; they were telling it to look up.
"What's happened?"
The killer whale king abruptly looked up.
Instantly, it was startled.
There, high in the sky, was the human Titled Douluo, who had somehow taken position high above.
The backdrop was seven purple stars arranged like a ladle.
"What a terrifying aura, even with my Cultivation Level, I can't withstand such an attack,"
"This person has a hundred-thousand-year soul ring, but his Cultivation Level is only at the ninety-fourth or fifth level, how can he be so powerful?"
The killer whale king's heart was trembling.
Even though it was the king that galloped across the sea, its heart was filled with fear.
"Quick, dive into the deep sea."
The killer whale king roared, and without waiting for the response of its clan, it took the lead in diving down.
No matter what, it couldn't let itself fall into danger.
"Do you think you can still escape now?"
Qin Xiao looked down from above at the actions of the evil killer whales, smiling coldly.
He pushed the seven Thunder Stars into motion with his spiritual power, slowly initiating an attack.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
The speed of thunder was extremely fast.
Even when a multitude of thunders gathered to form a Thunder Star orb, the speed did not decrease, it was terrifying.
Boom boom boom boom boom...
The Thunder Stars fell upon the sea surface, a powerful Soul Power explosion raised a massive mushroom cloud.
"No wonder, no wonder he asked us to retreat such a long distance."
Even at a distance of fifty miles, little white could still feel the terrifying power contained within.
Asking itself, if it were in the center of that energy storm, it would not survive.
Next to little white, hundreds of Devil Soul Great White Shark clan members were also stunned.
They all knew Qin Xiao was powerful, but they hadn't thought he could be powerful to this degree.
"King, what should we do now?"
A Devil Soul Great White Shark, fifteen meters in length, asked with a trembling voice.
"There is no need to do anything, just wait a moment,"
little white stopped its clan members from investigating further.
It was afraid that getting closer could result in unintended injuries.
At the same time, it also believed that with Qin Xiao's Cultivation Level, there was no need for them to step in.
At least for now that was the case.
Not knowing how much time had passed, little white's gaze became focused.
After the thunderstorm dissipated, the sea surface was a complete mess.
Blood had already dyed the waters ahead red, and the scent of blood spread far away with the sea water, carried by the sea breeze.
Carcasses, large and numerous, rose and fell with the waves.
One hundred, two hundred, or five hundred?
little white didn't know, nor could it see clearly.
Only by approaching and counting each one could an accurate number be determined.
Right now, it wasn't in the mood to think about all that.
Because Qin Xiao's arrival occupied all its thoughts.
"Great, Great One."
"You, you're not hurt, are you?"
little white tried hard to suppress its excited emotions, but its voice still trembled slightly.
If before, the person it feared the most were the Sea God and Bossi, then now one more had to be added to that list: Qin Xiao.
And furthermore, Qin Xiao had to be placed at the very forefront.
Qin Xiao shook his head slightly, "Now you can take your clan members to clean up the battlefield, you can also enter the territory of the evil killer whales, reclaim your lost territories, and even gain more..."
"Great One, are you saying that the killer whale king is?"
little white suddenly thought of a possibility.
"It's dead,"
Qin Xiao answered calmly.
Indeed, the killer whale king was dead, obliterated by the seven Thunder Stars, leaving behind nothing but a soul bone.
At the same time, he took out the soul bone from the body of the killer whale king and showed it to little white.
"It's true. This is real!"
"It's dead, that damn creature is really dead."
"Little brother, do you see? Your revenge has been taken today."
"Fellow clan members who died in vain, you can rest in peace now."
little white's voice was complex.
Qin Xiao could see tears, clear as crystal, spilling from little white's eyes.
He knew it was crying tears of joy.
"Don't cry now, get moving,"
"I have to return to Sea God's Island for my next examination,"
Qin Xiao said as he walked past little white.
The many Devil Soul Great White Sharks spontaneously made way for Qin Xiao.
Their gaze towards Qin Xiao had changed.
It was filled with awe and gratitude.
"Great One, you are the benefactor of our Devil Soul Great White Shark clan, if you ever need anything, little white is willing to give even its life to repay your kindness,"
"My clan members are also willing to give their all for you,"
Watching Qin Xiao's retreating figure, little white shouted loudly.
It felt grateful.
However,
Qin Xiao didn't look back, just waving his hand toward little white as he walked away.
...
"Your Highness still hasn't returned."
On Sea God's Island, in front of the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar, Ning Rongrong wore an unmistakable look of worry.
"Rongrong, you also forget what His Highness went to do,"
"He went to kill a formidable hundred-thousand-year sea soul beast, one of the three great overlords at that, how could he possibly return so quickly?"
Dugu Yan paused, then added, "But don't worry, His Highness will definitely return safely."
Ning Rongrong nodded heavily, "Yes."
"Rongrong, Yanyan, His Highness, he's back,"
Suddenly, Meng Yiran called out softly, pointing to the distance.
Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan's gaze followed suit.
Sure enough,
Qin Xiao was walking towards them, smiling.
"Your Highness, you're back,"
"Was it a success?"
"Rongrong, what a redundant question, has His Highness ever failed?"
The group surrounded Qin Xiao in the center, chattering like sparrows.
Qin Xiao gave a positive reply, "The killer whale king has been slain by me. The devil Soul of the great white shark king is cleaning up, and the third examination is complete."
"Congratulations, Qin Xiao,"
Sea Horse Douluo, hearing the news, hurried over to congratulate.
