Chapter 648: Escape Plan
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Wang Mang looked at Zhu Long with a serious expression.
At the same time, Zhulong’s originally tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed.
He had originally planned to personally send Wang Mang into the dragon tomb, but since Wang Mang had acquiesced, he did not object to the other party’s proposal.
This was also because Zhu Long knew how deep the conflict between Wang Mang and the Fifth Elder was. It was impossible for the two to reconcile, and thus there would be no chance of Wang Mang convincing the Fifth Elder to let him go.
In this manner, Zhu Long would also be able to help the Fifth Elder resolve his grudge with Wang Mang.
Since that was the case, why not?
Thinking this, Zhu Long waved his hand and smiled indifferently.
“Ao Zuo, Ao You, go and call the Fifth Elder over!”
“Mm, also, call over Elder Wang Mang’s subordinate, Wu Shi!”
Wang Mang’s expression was full of respect, but he could not help but feel his scalp go numb.
This guy really did not even bat an eyelid when he killed people!
If not for the system’s mission reminding him, he would not have known that he was heading toward certain doom!
At this moment, the two Saint Emperor realm experts left the Dragon Emperor Palace. Soon after, they returned with the Fifth Elder, Wu Shi, and the Black Emperor.
“Fifth Elder, I’ll have to trouble you to bring him to the dragon tomb.”
Hearing this, the Fifth Elder nodded slightly and said coldly to Wang Mang, “Follow me!”
Upon hearing this, Wang Mang simply nodded. He waved at Wu Shi and followed the Fifth Elder out of Dragon Emperor Palace.
After leaving the Dragon Emperor Palace, Wang Mang heaved a sigh of relief.
However, he knew he needed to find an appropriate place to act. If he took action too soon, Zhu Long might rush over, in which case, things would be dire.
Thinking this, Wang Mang silently followed behind the Fifth Elder.
As the Fifth Elder moved further and further away from the Dragon Emperor Palace, he looked back and saw Wang Mang’s clueless expression.
Seeing this, he sneered inwardly.
This idiot still did not know that he was about to die!
At this moment, he could already imagine Wang Mang’s despair after entering the dragon tomb.
This was because none of the members of the dragon clan who entered the dragon tomb had ever come out alive. Thus, unless they were about to die, the dragon clan members would never enter the dragon tomb.
Although he did not know how this fellow had offended Zhu Long, being able to personally send Wang Mang to his death was a very satisfying thing.
However, Wang Mang’s voice suddenly rang out, breaking him out of his reverie.
“Fifth Elder, I also didn’t know that the kid was your descendant. Otherwise, I would have definitely spared his life.”
Hearing this, the Fifth Elder’s face stiffened, his lips twitching as he suppressed his anger and snorted coldly.
At the same time, the Fifth Elder also comforted himself, “There’s no need to get angry with a dead person!”
Naturally, Wang Mang also noticed this, and pretended to sigh helplessly.
“Fifth Elder, you won’t blame me, right?”
“I’m sincerely apologizing to you!”
The Fifth Elder’s face darkened when he was reminded of how his descendant had died tragically at Wang Mang’s hands, and his hatred for Wang Mang deepened.
“Eleventh Elder, why are you pretending?”
“If you really feel guilty, why did you escape back then? Wouldn’t it be better to die as an apology?”
Hearing this, Wang Mang sneered in his heart and pretended to be helpless.
“I kept myself alive because I wanted to serve the dragon clan.”
“Besides, I’m now an elder of the dragon clan.”
“Wouldn’t it be a great loss to the dragon clan if I died?”
“Besides, he’s already dead, so he’s of no value to the dragon clan.”
“How can a dead person compare to me, right?”
Even though Wang Mang’s tone was helpless, the Fifth Elder could still hear smugness in his voice.
He gnashed his teeth in anger, wishing he could slap Wang Mang to death.
However, after taking a few deep breaths, he resisted the urge to kill Wang Mang.
‘Dog! i’ll let you be smug for a while longer!’
‘After entering the dragon tomb, you will die in despair!’
With this thought in mind, the Fifth Elder turned a deaf ear to Wang Mang’s words as he traveled faster and faster.
An hour later, Wang Mang arrived in front of the dragon tomb, which looked like a huge stone dragon. The entrance to the tomb was the mouth of the huge dragon.
Seeing this, the Fifth Elder turned around with a cold expression and said to Wang Mang, “This is the dragon tomb. Go in!”
Wang Mang examined him for a while and could not help but laugh.
“Fifth Elder, why don’t you go in with me?”
Hearing this, the Fifth Elder immediately shook his head and said, “I won’t accompany you in. If you can complete the Dragon Emperor’s orders, our grudges will be written off!”
Hearing this, Wang Mang immediately pretended to be happy.
“Really?”
“Of course.” The Fifth Elder nodded his head, his eyes filled with amusement.
Wang Mang smiled and nodded.
“That’s great. Before entering the dragon tomb, I have something to give to you.”
Hearing this, the Fifth Elder was stunned and asked, “What is it?”
Wang Mang took out a golden mask and slowly put it on his face. He chuckled and asked, “Fifth Elder, what do you think of this mask?”
After sizing him up, the Fifth Elder nodded and said, “It’s pretty good.”
“Is this for me? Then hurry up and bring it over. You should enter the dragon tomb as soon as possible!”
The Fifth Elder then extended his hand to Wang Mang, indicating for him to give him the mask. He could not wait to see Wang Mang enter the dragon tomb.
To put it bluntly, he actually wanted to say to Wang Mang, “Stop wasting time and quickly enter the dragon tomb to die!”
At this moment, Wang Mang suddenly smiled.
“Since you’re in such a hurry to die, I’ll send you on your way!”
Wang Mang instantly unleashed an attack!
His palm flew toward the Fifth Elder’s head. Furthermore, he had attacked with all his might!
Bang!
The Fifth Elder did not even have time to react, and his head exploded into bloody mist!
However, before the Fifth Elder was about to reform his brain, Wang Mang instantly transformed into his true form, opened his mouth, and swallowed the Fifth Elder in one gulp.
A Tier 5 expert had been killed and devoured in one fell swoop!
Not even his true soul could escape!
At the same time, the system’s voice rang out.
