The Evil Orca King's Silent Death
The next morning, when Han Li got up and stepped out of his room, he found that the person guarding his door had changed.
She went from being a maid, Xi Xi, to Little White Demon Soul Great White Shark Xiao Bai.
When she saw Han Li walk out, she unconsciously shrank back. The shock of the battle a few days ago had left her with some instinctive fear.
Her imagination and immersion were off the charts. She didn't want to be grabbed and slammed into the sea, nor did she want to be used as a shield. After all, her original form was far more useful than the former High Priestess Bo Saixi.
"So early?"
Han Li walked to the center of the courtyard, ate the special fish porridge she had brought, and casually asked.
"Lady Ye Lingling is already undergoing training for traversing the Sea God's Light, and has instructed me to take you directly to the seaside later."
Xiao Bai answered very respectfully. In her eyes, Han Li was a complete Demon King, and the Soul Beast Race was more obedient to the strong than humans.
"What about my senior brother?"
Han Li savored the tender fish slices in his mouth and turned his head to ask.
"The grand ceremony... Xi Xi went to call for it."
Xiao Bai habitually stopped mid-sentence and quickly corrected himself.
It's still early, and she hasn't quite adjusted to the changes in their identities yet.
"Oh?"
Han Li's eyes lit up. Lingling really has won my heart.
He was completely unaware that Ye Lingling's move was entirely to prevent him from coming into contact with Bo Saixi. After all, Bo Saixi was indeed quite attractive, while Xiao Bai was still a Soul Beast.
He secretly used his Spiritual Power to investigate the next room, only to find that the two of them did not communicate at all. They were as well-behaved as two Qian Daoliu, and Qian Daoliu himself was even more reserved Bo Saixi.
As for Bo Saixi, her situation has improved, but not much. Han Li is too lazy to pay attention to her; she's a pitiful creature who has been abandoned. If it weren't for the intervention of the Sea God, she might already be gone.
Disappointed at not seeing the scene he wanted, Han Li quickened his eating pace.
After breakfast, Han Li went next door to call his uncle, who was feeling unwell, and together they headed towards the sea, led by Xiao Bai.
When they arrived, Ye Lingling was already waiting there. Her aura was still a little unstable, indicating that she had just finished training not long ago.
"You don't need to push yourself so hard; you should be the one making the fastest progress."
After encountering the God Exam, they rallied internally and worked even harder than before.
"I still have Halberd Technique to learn, so I have to work harder. With my Martial Soul and the Sea God's Light, it won't be a burden on me."
Ye Lingling, unusually, refuted Han Li's words. She needed to work harder, as her personal combat strength was the area she most needed to improve, and she didn't want to hold anyone back.
Seeing her slightly stubborn expression, Han Li had no choice but to give up trying to persuade her; her external conditions were indeed the best.
"Then you can decide for yourself."
Han Li chose to compromise and looked at Xiao Bai beside him. "Lead the way."
Although you can fly there directly, riding a shark mount is a rare experience, and since you're already here, it would be a shame not to try it.
"Good."
Faced with his order, Xiao Bai the Demon Soul Great White Shark was excited and showed no resistance whatsoever.
The future Sea God will also go along, and what he wants to kill is still their race's natural enemy. And this time, it will be a mount, which is enough to make it happy.
Even though it had witnessed the previous Sea God's way of doing things and its faith had somewhat crumbled, it still didn't mind being a mount again. And Ye Lingling's current personality was quite gentle, which didn't make it reject her.
With a sudden plunge into the sea, it revealed its true form, its enormous body emerging from the water, awaiting the arrival of the three. Han Li and the other two did not hesitate and landed directly on its broad back.
With a flick of its tail, it quickly parted the water and swam away from Sea God Island.
Riding a shark is indeed a novel experience.
Xiao Bai was fast and quite stable. Standing on its back, watching the waves around you, and feeling the breeze was a truly unique experience.
Han Li sat down cross-legged and patted its firm yet elastic back. The skin was tight, but he wondered if it would taste good.
Beneath him, Xiao Bai felt a strange chill rise in her heart. She looked around but found nothing.
"By the way, Xiao Bai, Lingling already told you, right? This operation is only to kill the leader of the Evil Spirit Orca."
Han Li tested the elasticity of its back and spoke up.
"Lord Han Li, Lady Ye Lingling has already told me."
The crisp sound of Xiao Bai echoed from the water, but it didn't diminish its joy.
Once the Evil Orca King is dealt with, that will be enough. As long as the Evil Orca King is dead, the remaining Evil Spirit Orca will be able to drive their pods out of this sea area on their own.
This is a victory for the Demon Soul Great White Shark race.
"Once this mission is over, I will remove the punishment from Xiao Bai."
The speaker was Ye Lingling. The regular combat strength of Sea God Island relied on the Seven Holy Pillars and Xiao Bai. She had to devote more time to the assessment, so she naturally didn't mind doing the other party a favor.
The Sea God's punishment of everyone might have had this intention, otherwise he wouldn't have left the means to lift it to Ye Lingling as well.
"Thank you, sir."
Beneath him, the Demon Soul Great White Shark's cries grew even more exuberant, and it swung its tail even more vigorously.
Han Li and the other two exchanged a smile and said nothing. This was something they had already agreed upon. When Ye Lingling challenged the Seven Holy Pillars later, she would also lift the punishment on them.
Without the burden of its pack, Xiao Bai quickly carried the three of them into the territory of the Evil Spirit Orca.
Moreover, unlike before, this time it was extremely arrogant, recklessly releasing its aura, and using the water flow to provoke all the creatures in the area in the manner of communication of the Soul Beast Race, hurling very vulgar insults.
It had wanted to do this for a long time, but it hadn't dared to before. Generally speaking, its group was not as strong as its opponent's, but this time, it was not intimidated at all.
Putting aside the successor of the Sea God, a powerful figure no less than the former High Priestess, a great Demon King capable of beating the former High Priestess, it would be a shame if it didn't act arrogantly, given all the suffering it had endured.
It's important to understand that before this, even with the protection of Sea God Island, the High Priestess strictly forbade the Seven Holy Pillars from intervening. At best, the Demon Soul Great White Shark Clan only had an extra safe haven. Outside the Sea God Island area, their clan remained vulnerable.
It couldn't understand why the High Priestess wouldn't help its race. Weren't its race the Lord Sea God? But it dared not ask and could only silently endure it. At least there was a safe area for its race to recuperate, right? Now, although Lord Ye Lingling and the Great Demon King were doing it because of the God Exam, they had also clearly told it to only kill the strongest Evil Orca King.
But as long as it kills the king of the opposing clan, who is its natural enemy, then that clan will have the upper hand and things won't be as difficult as before. This is a benefit it can't even imagine.
Han Li, who was standing on its back, was stunned for a moment, because just now, he had actually received a wisp of pure Faith Power from the Demon Soul Great White Shark.
Is this some kind of competition to see who's worse? Has Poseidon gone too far in exploiting people? Han Li found it somewhat laughable.
"Lingling, are you ready?"
Han Li turned his head to look at Ye Lingling, who seemed a little confused, and asked her a question.
"Um?"
Ye Lingling was taken aback at first, then realized what was happening. She pointed to herself, still somewhat confused. Wasn't she supposed to be there to help out? "Me?"
"Hmm, come here. I'll use the Evil God's Protection on you for half an hour to practice your Halberd Technique. How about that?"
After his strength improved further, Han Li could now simultaneously release this Soul Skill, which could originally only be attached to himself, onto other people.
Although there are better ways to protect her, for the current battle, it is enough to help Ye Lingling fight.
"Good."
Ye Lingling nodded excitedly. She wasn't really confident, since she and Zhu Zhuqing had always been at the bottom of the group in previous sparring sessions. But with the Evil God's Protection her, she felt confident and decided to use it as preparation for the challenges to come.
The two made no attempt to conceal their conversation, and the Demon Soul Great White Shark beneath them heard it clearly. As a result, it swam even faster, almost heading directly towards the other's lair.
During the battle, it's quite normal for Lady Ye Lingling or the Great Demon King to accidentally kill a few Evil Spirit Orca, right? Moreover, it was also curious about what the Evil God's Protection that Han Li mentioned was.
Thanks to Xiao Bai's efforts, before the Evil Orca Group could fully react and complete their encirclement, they faced the king of the enemy.
Unlike the Demon Soul Great White Shark, the Evil Orca King looks pitch black, is much larger, exudes power, and has a much stronger ferocious aura than Xiao Bai.
Upon seeing Han Li, the Evil Orca King wanted to turn and flee, as it knew about the Sea God's previous notification to the Sea Soul Beast to convert to a different faith.
It itself does not worship the Sea God, but that does not mean that its people do not worship the Sea God.
Most Sea Soul Beast only have the right to choose whether or not to believe after they have lived for ten thousand years. Before that, they act according to their instincts.
It must be said that, in this respect, Sea God did a better and more brilliant job than the Angel God.
But upon seeing the Sea God's Mark on Ye Lingling's forehead, it stopped on its own and dispersed its people. As one of the overlords of the sea, it was not entirely ignorant.
It died half an hour later.
The huge, dark corpse floated on the sea, making Xiao Bai somewhat eager to go up and get a piece of the pie.
But it dared not move. The Evil Orca King, which was even stronger than it, died without any dignity. Ye Lingling, who was Evil God's Protection, beat it for half an hour, but she still could not break through its defense.
Han Li kept giving her pointers, instructing her to combine what he had taught her with the Halberd Technique to form a complete system.
For a master to be reduced to a practice tool is truly a disgrace.
So, after the gray aura around Lingling ended, it prepared to self-destruct and perish together with the enemy. Unfortunately, the Great Demon King pierced its head with a Dual-Colored Arrow, and it lost its Life force before it could even scream.
It was too terrible. It dared not move, fearing that the other side would also poke it with a small arrow and suffer the same fate.
"What a pity, the Soul Ring has been wasted."
Han Li took out a piece of Whale Rubber and dug out a piece of his left leg bone, saying with some regret.
His target for Soul Ring was someone else, but Shui Bing'er was currently undergoing God Exam, and the others couldn't withstand it, so they had to waste their efforts.
Han Li casually Ice Seal the corpse of the Soul Beast in front of him, leaving a safeguard, then lightly stamped his foot and said:
"Xiao Bai, its body is yours now. You can come back and drag it back on the way back."
"Now, we should set off to find the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King."
