Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Master, why are you looking for me?” An Lan asked indifferently with his hands behind her back.
“Come with me to see the East Vice-City Lord! His son actually dared to snatch my immortal stones. I want to see how capable he is!”
At this point, Wang Mang’s eyes were cold and murderous.
Hearing this, An Lan became furious, and said with a cold expression, “Master, that fellow is so shameless to have dared to do such a thing. However, don’t worry, Master. I will suppress the East Vice-City Lord with a wave of my hand!”
Wang Mang was satisfied. In any case, with An Lan around, he was much more confident in dealing with the East Vice-City Lord.
At the same time, the two generals, who were trembling on the ground not far away, were completely stunned.
They finally understood why this new general was so rampant and lawless. He had a Tier 5 expert as a subordinate.
If they had a Tier 5 expert under them, they would also be as arrogant and confident.
They had originally thought that Wang Mang’s side was the weaker side, which was why they had chosen to give Wang Mang’s share away without hesitation.
However, from the looks of it, the opposite was true. Realizing this, the two of them despaired, as they had no control over their fate at all!
At this moment, Wang Mang, who was preparing to head to the Vice-City Lord’s Mansion, glanced at them.
Although Wang Mang understood their cowardice, he would not let them off easily. However, he needed these two as witnesses.
This was actually his preventive measure!
If the East Vice-City Lord was too powerful, Wang Mang would still have other methods to deal with him. After all, since the East Vice-City Lord was able to compete for the North City Lord position, his strength was definitely not weak.
Therefore, Wang Mang’s plan was to try using force first, but if that failed, then he would use schemes and reasoning.
“You two dogs, why aren’t you leading the way to the East Vic- City Lord’s Mansion? Do you want me to help you up personally?”
After hearing Wang Mang’s words, the generals nearly fainted from fright.
How could they not understand Wang Mang’s meaning?
By having them lead the way to the East Vice-City Lord’s Mansion, Wang Mang was simply forcing them to become enemies with the East Vice-City Lord! Unfortunately, they had no choice at all!
The two of them stood up with numb faces and began to lead the way.
Half an hour later.
Wang Mang and An Lan, led by these two generals, successfully arrived at the East Vice-City Lord’s Mansion.
At this moment, in the East Vice City Lord’s Mansion, in the hall.
A middle-aged man with a powerful aura sat in the seat of honor. His terrifying aura was well concealed, but there was still a faint pressure around him.
Obviously, he was the East Vice-City Lord, the Holy Lord!
When Wang Mang, An Lan, and the two nameless generals walked into the hall…
No, to be precise, it was the moment An Lan appeared…
The Holy Lord narrowed his eyes slightly. Then, he laughed and stood up.
“So it’s the East Gate General.”
Hearing this, Wang Mang’s heart sank, and he became vigilant.
This old fellow was not easy to deal with!
Wang Mang could feel a strong sense of danger from him, and the old man’s aura was no weaker than An Lan’s.
Thinking this, Wang Mang smiled and cupped his hands.
“Greetings, East Vice-City Lord. As you have probably figured out, I’m not here for no reason!”
The Holy Lord was a Tier 5 expert after all, and could deduce many things about the past, present and future.
Before Wang Mang arrived, he had already deduced that he was entangled by karma, and this karma did not just involve a Tier 4 expert.
Honestly, if it was just Wang Mang, The Holy Lord could sever the karmic lines. A Tier 5 expert had the power to do this. However, he could not do this when the karmic lines involved another Tier 5 expert!
There was no way to cut it off unless the other party was willing.
Now, he had two choices. The first was to completely deny all wrongdoing and break off all ties with Wang Mang.
The second was to spit out all of the immortal stones that his son had taken from Wang Mang to resolve the conflict.
After pondering for a moment, the Holy Lord finally decided to resolve the conflict with Wang Mang.
He didn’t care about Wang Mang, but the Tier 5 expert that was with Wang Mang made him cautious. Furthermore, he knew that this Tier 5 expert was a guest elder of the Chen family.
Therefore, although he did not know how close Wang Mang and An Lan’s were, the mere fact that An Lan had appeared here meant that An Lan was ready for a fight, and the Holy Lord wanted to avoid that outcome.
If it was in the past, the Holy Lord would not have cared. However, it was different now, as he had to compete for the position of North City Lord.
Secondly, not long ago, there was an unusual movement in the depths of the Million Mountain Range, so it was likely that something unknown would happen in the near future.
Therefore, at this juncture, he did not want to cause any more trouble. He smiled brightly and said, “My son is not sensible and has caused the general trouble.”
As he spoke, the Holy Lord waved his sleeve, and a storage bag appeared before Wang Mang.
Seeing this, Wang Mang took the storage bag. After examining it, he found that there were seven million immortal stones inside. He beamed and said, “Vice-City Lord is too polite. For such a small matter, I have disturbed you. Since you are busy, I won���t disturb you any longer.”
After laughing, Wang Mang cupped his hands and said a few words of courtesy before leaving the East Vice-City Lord’s Mansion.
After returning to his own mansion, Wang Mang realized that Anur had returned. Furthermore, the Dog Emperor was with him.
After seeing Wang Mang, the Dog Emperor who was waiting in the courtyard immediately stood up and said with a smile, “Brother Wang Mang, you’re finally here! I’ve been waiting for you so long that the flowers have withered!”
“Our sales for the past half a month amounts to a total of three million immortal stones.”
“The Black Bear Emperor and I got one million, and this is the remaining two million..”
