Just then, the little Qilin, which was dozing off, suddenly opened its eyes wide, as if it had discovered something incredible.
It hurriedly swam to the front of the pod of Evil Spirit Orca, making "whimpering" sounds, as if giving the Evil Spirit Orca a warning.
The Evil Spirit Orca naturally noticed the little Qilin's unusual behavior. The Evil Orca King snorted disdainfully and was about to lead his people to meet the enemy.
But this time, the little Qilin still stood in their way, seemingly not wanting them to go, because there was a very terrifying person there this time.
The Evil Orca King couldn't help but scoff at it. In this vast ocean, even the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King dared to fight it; could there be anything that could frighten them?
Seeing that its advice was ineffective, the little Qilin had no choice but to swim around in circles a few times before it found a rock and hid there.
The reason this little Qilin was with the Evil Spirit Orca wasn't because they had any relationship; it was simply because the Evil Spirit Orca had saved its life while hunting, which is why the little Qilin followed them.
The reason why the Evil Orca King left the little Qilin was not out of kindness. Firstly, the little Qilin's ability to foresee good and bad fortune was very useful. Secondly, as Divine Beast, it had abundant spiritual energy within its body. Therefore, the Evil Orca King regarded it as a kind of Immortal Herb, which it could consume when it made another breakthrough and use its power to pass through the barrier.
Upon learning of the approaching enemy, the Evil Orca King and its minions rushed over at lightning speed. Although their speed in the sea was not as fast as that of the Demon Soul Great White Shark, it was still astonishing, and they soon came into Qi Ling and Xiao Bai's sight.
Normally, if he were facing so many Evil Spirit Orca, there would be no other outcome but death. But at this moment, Xiao Bai was carrying that man on his back, so Xiao Bai could only pray for the Evil Spirit Orca.
Soon, the Evil Spirit Orca surrounded Xiao Bai. The Evil Orca King approached Xiao Bai and sneered, "Hmph, so it's you again, here to avenge your brother? You overconfident little fish, watch me kill you all!"
Xiao Bai retorted defiantly, " Xie Hu, don't be so arrogant! All the evil deeds you've committed over the years deserve retribution today! You killed my brother back then, and today I'll make you pay for your crimes in blood!"
"Hahaha, how laughable! With your abilities, what makes me pay for this blood debt!" Xie Hu said smugly. "Besides, I think you're getting more and more regressive, actually letting a human step on your head. Have you forgotten the pride of the Sea Soul Beast?!"
Xiao Bai replied, "That's none of your business! Since we dared to come today, we've naturally made thorough preparations!"
The thorough preparations Xiao Bai mentioned actually referred to Qi Ling. Although Qi Ling had said he wouldn't take action, Xiao Bai, who knew Qi Ling's personality well, knew that he couldn't just watch Tang San and the others fail the test and would definitely lend a helping hand.
But to the surprise of both Xiao Bai and the Evil Orca King, Qi Ling was not listening to their conversation at all; his attention was completely drawn to the distant Black Jade Qilin.
After using his Fiery Eyes and Golden Pupils, Qi Ling's gaze pierced through the deep seawater and locked onto the little Qilin in the distance. The little Qilin, which had been peeking out from behind a large rock, was startled by Qi Ling's gaze and hurriedly ran out from behind the rock and swam away into the distance.
"Hey, you think you can outrun me?" Qi Ling said, her Soul Ring appearing on her body. Suddenly, she transformed into a Divine Dragon dragon and soared into the sky, then plunged into the sea, chasing after the little Qilin.
Seeing Qi Ling suddenly transform into Divine Dragon, its noble and dignified aura made it tremble with fear, wondering who this deity was.
But then, the Evil Orca King saw Qi Ling chasing after the little Qilin and assumed that his purpose was the same as his own—to eat the little Qilin. How could it tolerate this!
The Evil Orca King was naturally the king of the ocean, and it usually didn't submit to anyone. So, although Qi Ling made it instinctively afraid, its long-standing arrogance made it completely forget about these fears and turn around to chase after Qi Ling.
"Stop right there! That's mine!" the Evil Orca King shouted as it chased after Qi Ling, but to its surprise, it found that Qi Ling was swimming at an astonishing speed, and it couldn't catch up with her at all.
Their leader had just left, clearly to fight to the death with the enemy, and the other Evil Spirit Orca, knowing the brutality of the Evil Orca King, naturally dared not interfere in its battle.
So now, all that's left here is a group of Evil Spirit Orca and a Demon Soul Great White Shark King. What they need to do is self-evident.
As Xiao Bai watched the Evil Spirit Orca gradually closing in on her, she couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt. Even though she was Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, she would absolutely not be able to withstand the attacks of so many Evil Spirit Orca.
Left with no other choice, Xiao Bai had to resort to the ultimate military strategy—retreat! He hurriedly turned around and fled in the direction he had come from, shouting as he ran, " Qi Ling! You bastard, I hate you!"
The Divine Dragon entered the sea, and its speed was far beyond what these Sea Soul Beast could match. Even Xiao Bai was far inferior to Qi Ling in speed. So, although the little Qilin swam very fast in the water, it was not long before Qi Ling caught up with it.
Upon seeing the enormous creature that suddenly appeared before it, the little Qilin instinctively felt a surge of fear, baring its teeth at Qi Ling like a puppy.
The problem is that its appearance, combined with its small size, doesn't really have much of an intimidating effect; it just gives off a cute, fierce vibe that made Qi Ling laugh.
"You little rascal, you're quite fierce," Qi Ling said to the little Qilin. "I'm a dragon, and you're Qilin, so we're practically relatives. Don't be so fierce, come here."
As she spoke, Qi Ling lowered her dragon head and knelt down in front of the little Qilin, a rare display of humility for Divine Dragon.
Sensing the kindness emanating from Qi Ling, the little Qilin was no longer so afraid. She cautiously approached Qi Ling, suddenly stuck out her tongue and licked Qi Ling's face, then raised her head and looked at Qi Ling with her big eyes.
Seeing that Qi Ling wasn't angry and even smiled, the little Qilin couldn't help but feel happy. Its little tail swayed from side to side as it affectionately came to Qi Ling's face and rubbed its head against him.
