Om!

The sound of a fly interrupted the memory abnormally.

From the dissipating flames, a body resembling a corpse lay on the ground, emitting a charred smell.

Then, Wang Xiaole really saw a bean-sized fly flying out of the body and seemingly looking for a host to control.

So, Wang Xiaole moved the sword horizontally forward, ensuring he wasn't ambushed, while watching Bristleback smartly change direction and head towards where White Bear was.

Boom!

After a dull explosion, White Bear, already weakened, finally broke through the external obstacles and tore apart the restraints with his fists.

As the blood and energy in the body shook, not to mention White Bear himself;

even the seventy-two demon clan members ended up spitting blood and falling to the ground, quickly losing their vitality.

The cost of regaining freedom was not insignificant for White Bear.

At least now, he could not unleash his full power, his current strength at most akin to Baisui's.

In other words, White Bear now could absolutely not withstand an attack from Bristleback, who was originally close to his strength level.

Swoosh!

Bristleback launched a sneak attack on White Bear and swiftly flew into his slightly open mouth due to gasping, then rapidly entered his body through the throat.

Whether the digestive fluid in the beastkin's body could digest a demon king after a few hours was undoubtedly a question worth exploring.

However, one thing is certain:

For a short period, Bristleback did not need to fly out of White Bear's body in a hurry but instead needed to use his unique ability to control the host's physical actions.

Strictly speaking:

Bristleback couldn't control the host's mind, at best only able to actively influence the host's behavior through his own will, making him do things beyond control.

Of course, during this time, White Bear's consciousness remained uninterrupted;

resulting in two voices mixed together being sent towards Wang Xiaole:

"Humph, human, now this body emitting a foul stench is under my control.

What do you think? Do you still dare to resort to violence against me! (You're the one who stinks, your whole family stinks)"

The first half was from Bristleback, the second half voicing White Bear's resentment.

It wasn't difficult for Wang Xiaole to distinguish between the two voices.

Now, with White Bear as a shield, Bristleback became more reckless.

He even directly taunted Wang Xiaole, completely in a manner of "come on, hit me."

His malicious intent was very evident.

From the observation just now, Bristleback believed the relationship between the human in front of him and the beastkin royal family was most likely one of two:

The first was an employment relationship, where the royal family likely convinced the strong human to serve them by offering generous rewards;

Otherwise, it was hard to explain why a human would help other races.

The second was a "future family relationship," Bristleback did not overlook the fact that the beastkin princess and Wang Xiaole appeared together.

This scene seemed ordinary, but behind it, Bristleback felt there was some special connection;

If the other hypothesis was incorrect, then he wouldn't doubt:

The human before him had some unclear ties with the beastkin royal family!

With this in mind, the other party's relationship was that of lovers, while White Bear, the king, was equivalent to the former’s future father-in-law.

And Bristleback believed:

Regardless of whether Wang Xiaole was hired or the princess's lover, White Bear was undoubtedly an important figure;

As long as he didn't leave White Bear's body, this human would not dare to act recklessly.

Thinking this way, Bristleback became more emboldened, his provocative voice growing louder:

"Why are you standing there doing nothing? Aren't you planning to punish me severely? Well, come on, hit me, be as brutal and heartless as you want..."

Before Bristleback could finish, a fist was already enlarging in the host's pupils;

Soon, he felt a burning pain on his cheek.

Boom!

After enduring a merciless blow, the body controlled by Bristleback as White Bear soared into the air in an arching trajectory (though lacking any beauty) and then rapidly plummeted down.

With a loud thud, the body collapsed on the ground in a sprawled position, causing no dust but pressing the earth beneath it.

"Ah, why is this happening?"

Bristleback, now weakened, couldn't understand a fact:

Although there was an indiscernible relationship between Wang Xiaole and Bai Meow, White Bear, in some sense, could be considered a "future father-in-law";

But even so, when necessary, Wang Xiaole would not show any mercy toward White Bear.

In truth, it was Bristleback who had chosen the wrong target to control.

If he had chosen Bai Meow instead, Wang Xiaole would never have raised a hand;

And even if Bai Meow had taken White Water as the target, Wang Xiaole would still have hesitated due to the older man's status, leading to uncertainty in taking action.

Unfortunately, Bristleback had not chosen either of the two suitable candidates but instead had chosen White Bear.

Having made a critical mistake in his choice, his subsequent fate had already been sealed.

After all, they were in beastkin territory, and to avoid affecting their morale, Wang Xiaole, in the middle of the fight, had to loudly emphasize:

"Oh, Your Majesty, you are truly great. To prevent being controlled by despicable demons, you have voluntarily sacrificed, strongly demanding that I, this younger generation, come and fight you."

"You...”

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"I understand, Your Majesty. You don't need to say much. As a valiant warrior, you naturally won't care about these trivial surface wounds;

Since I started the fight just now, you've even calculated the number of punches you've taken and plan to use it as bragging rights for posterity. Oh, how noble."

"You..."

"I, this younger generation, although very reluctant to resort to violence, am ultimately moved by your noble spirit and have no choice but to act. Forgive me, please forgive me."

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Not far away, with the help of the princess, the royal soldiers of the Wang family, who had almost finished the battle, were moved by the words reaching their ears and the scene reflected in their eyes.

They saw a young girl riding on their king, continuously throwing punches, while also showing a sad expression, as if she was the one suffering from being struck.

"What a touching scene."

"Is this mutual respect between strong individuals?"

"Our king is even more dedicated than we imagined."

These statements represented the views of some soldiers, while others were watching in fascination and saying:

"Although I don't understand what's happening, if it's something that the black-haired beauty girl did, it must be right."

"Standing at such a close distance, enjoying the compelling posture of the beautiful girl as she punches, watching her flowing hair, it's truly a pleasure."

"If she's the one doing the punching, I also want to be hit like that."

Amidst the mixed voices, a couple of strange remarks slipped in, but these were minor and not worth bothering about...

On the other side, White Water and Bai Meow had each accomplished their missions.

The elder one finally managed to defeat the younger one by consuming less physical strength, in a clever manner staged a ploy to slay the latter;

While the younger one, after using a forbidden curse and dual daggers simultaneously, thoroughly resolved some auxiliary soldiers and the demonic gate.

Subsequently, the two who currently had no other tasks unconsciously focused their gaze in the same direction.

Bai Meow didn't quite understand the method of Bai Meow violently beating White Bear but believed there must be a reason for it;

So, Bai Meow chose to close his eyes and not look when they turned their backs.

In contrast, White Water was more direct, reminding Wang Xiaole:

"Be careful not to kill anyone; in other words, it's fine to hit them as hard as you want as long as they're not dead."

"Your Highness!"

Although White Bear wailed in agony, he couldn't stop White Water from watching the drama unfold.

Such was the way of the world, always indifferent.

No one was stopping him, so Wang Xiaole grew more and more accustomed to the violence and brutality of his actions.

Soon, Bristleback, sharing the pain White Bear felt, couldn't bear the torturous treatment akin to drawn-out torment, and flew out of White Bear's mouth foaming at the mouth.

Buzzing.

The faint sound emitted did not escape Bai Meow's ears.

The little girl didn't know a fly equaled a demon king, only recognizing it as a bad bug that needed to be eliminated.

Clang!

Using a dagger as a hidden weapon, Bai Meow threw it out, piercing the fly's body following its flight path.

Then, in a faint almost disappearing wail, the fly's body was impaled by the tip of the dagger, nailed to a solitary tree.

At that moment, Wang Xiaole gestured a thumbs up in Bai Meow's direction, but suddenly thought of the advice Lucia had given in the past:

At that time, due to some cooperation, Lucia had already removed someone's skirt, about to continue, but was interrupted:

"If we kill the fly Bristleback transformed into, does that mean that guy will die for good?"

Considering this matter important, Lucia temporarily suppressed her desires and took more time to thoroughly explain the "Guide to Defeating the Demon King":

"Dear, don't be fooled. That guy is very cunning! In the past, when we officially fought over the fan, I underestimated his tenacious vitality, which allowed him to escape successfully."

"How did he escape from you?"

"The reason is simple. The fly he transformed into is merely a clone, and the body that fell before that was his main self;

I only burned that fly before and overlooked destroying his body, which allowed him to escape when he suddenly rose."

"I see! Thank you, Lucia. If I encounter Bristleback in the future, I won't make the same mistake again."

With that, Wang Xiaole performed a sudden bodily movement, controlling his body to slip out of the clothes, running past Lucia.

Next, the naked person ran to the side of the bed and picked up the spare clothes placed on it;

After Wang Xiaole quickly dressed himself, he opened the window and jumped from the second floor of the hotel onto the street, thus escaping a disaster.
