222 Fated Enemy (Part 2)
After hearing the system’s voice, Wang Mang’s heart trembled.
As expected!
This guy was indeed his fated enemy!
The system had confirmed it!
Furthermore, Wang Mang could not help but recall something about a period of history from the Han Dynasty.
During the Han Dynasty, there was also an emperor with the same name as him.
There was also a man known as Liu Xiu at the time. At that time, it was said that this emperor, Wang Mang, had successfully seized the Liu family’s territory, which incurred Liu Xiu’s wrath.
With less than tens of thousands of soldiers, he had defeated the 300,000-strong army of Emperor Wang Mang.
It was said that even the heavens were helping Liu Xiu. They sent down divine miracles several times and successfully helped Liu Xiu kill Wang Mang.
Legends of this story had been passed down through the ages, so Wang Mang was naturally aware of this story.
Was this all a coincidence?
Surely not. After all, for his fated enemy to be called Liu Xiu as well was clearly a sign.
Thinking this, Wang Mang turned to the system.
“System, could there really be a past life and a present life?”
“Could it be that I was really Emperor Wang Mang in my previous life?”
[99% chance!]
F*ck!
For real?
99%?
Why did the system not just say it outright at this point?
“System, is Liu Xiu also the former founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty?”
[99% chance!]
F* ck!
Goddamnit!
Was history going to repeat itself?
According to the little fatty, that was indeed the case.
Wang Mang’s heart sank.
He did not immediately choose a mission option as he had to make a choice based on the situation.
Moreover, he did not have the strength to kill this fellow at the moment.
Liu Xiu’s ranking was even higher than his.
Who knew what tricks he had up his sleeve?
Thus, he decided to wait and see.
At this moment, after hearing the words of the dignified old man, the Stone Emperor said disdainfully, “Your suggestion isn’t very good.”
“Since ancient times, the demon race has not had a good relationship with you humans.”
“Also, do you think we’ll be afraid of you just because you brought Immortal Nanhua along?”
“A disaster is coming, and we can’t even protect ourselves, yet you still want us to help you.”
After the Stone Emperor spoke, the Willow Emperor also said indifferently, “The world is changing. We don’t have the capacity to help you.”
The Peach Blossom Tree Emperor nodded slightly and chimed in, “Immortal Nanhua, we’re not disregarding you, but these are the facts of the matter.”
The Dog Emperor suddenly opened his mouth and laughed, “I’m easier to deal with. As long as you can afford to give me something good, I can help you.”
Wang Mang watched the situation unfold in silence. As did the Black Bear Demon King. As they were not demon emperors, they had no right to interrupt the others.
Hearing this, the dignified old man frowned.
“Aren’t you at least going to consider it?”
“Perhaps in your eyes, we humans are insignificant.”
“However, we have the power to destroy the world! ”
Hearing the old man’s harsh words, all of the demon emperors present fell silent.
That was because, as one of the top two empires in the world, the Red Empire was indeed qualified to say such words.
After a long silence, the Stone Emperor finally spoke, “Don’t threaten us!”
“Go back to where you came from!”
“Since ancient times, our two races have not interfered with each other. Regarding the upcoming change in the world, you can deal with it in your own way, and we’ll deal with it in our own way.”
Hearing this, the old man was a little disappointed. He then looked at the Dog Emperor and asked, “What do you want in return for your assistance?”
The Dog Emperor grinned.
“If you ask Immortal Nanhua to give me ten 8,000-year-old demon emperor-level heavenly treasures, I’ll help you get through this crisis!”
Hearing this, the old man looked at Immortal Nanhua.
However, before Immortal Nanhua could speak, Liu Xiu said coldly, “Ten 8,000-year-old demon emperor-level heavenly treasures? How dare you ask for so much!”
...
“You might as well rob us!”
Hearing this, Wang Mang felt excited. He hoped that Liu Xiu would keep at it and offend the demon emperors.
The Dog Emperor instantly flew into a rage out of humiliation and said, “Who do you think you are? Do you have the right to speak here?”
Hearing the Dog Emperor’s words, the cold-looking young man’s face was filled with anger.
At this moment, Immortal Nanhua smiled and said, “Dog Emperor, don’t be angry. My disciple is not very sensible.”
“However, your request is indeed too much. I cannot offer that many 8,000-year-old demon emperor-level heavenly treasures.”
“Then there’s no point in continuing this discussion,” the Dog Emperor said coldly.
At this point, Wang Mang made his decision.
“System, I choose Mission 1!”
[Ding! Host has selected and completed the mission option! Obtained 10,000,000 evolution value!]
Wang Mang secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Since Liu Xiu was Immortal Nanhua’s disciple it was impossible to kill him.
...
Thus, Wang Mang naturally chose Mission 1. Mission 2 was a definite no-go. As shameless as Wang Mang was, he would not lower his head to his fated enemy.
In the distance, Liu Xiu suddenly turned to look at Wang Mang with a sharp gaze.
Seeing this, Wang Mang was shocked and terrified.
F*ck!
Could it be that this b*stard sensed that I have bad intentions toward him?
Moments later, Liu Xiu, who was sizing up Wang Mang, suddenly turned to Immortal Nanhua and said, “Master, since the negotiations have failed, then let’s forget it.”
Immortal Nanhua nodded his head and looked at the dignified old man with slight regret and said helplessly, “I did my best.”
Hearing this, the dignified old man nodded with a bitter expression.
“I know. Sorry to trouble you.”
Immortal Nanhua nodded expressionlessly and said, “Then, I’ll take my leave!”
At this moment, Liu Xiu suddenly said, “Wait!”
“Hmm?” Immortal Nanhua looked at his disciple Liu Xiu in surprise.
At this moment, Liu Xiu glared at Wang Mang and said, “Master, I want to kill this Python Demon King!”
