547 Ambush
After listening to the West Sea Dragon King's words, Wang Mang was completely stunned.
Whoa!
The West Sea Dragon King had been cuckolded by his own son!
Wang Mang was shocked. Usually, these types of situations would only appear in movies and dramas.
Moreover, it was his ninth consort. A dragon king would only appoint nine concubines, and the rest were not considered concubines at all.
Thus, the fact that she was appointed as the ninth consort proved that the West Sea Dragon King liked her very much.
It was no wonder the West Sea Dragon King was so angry.
Furthermore, after the two were exposed, they chose to elope and escape from the West Sea Dragon Palace!
This was why Wang Mang had been tasked with killing them.
"What? Could it be that the Great General of Longwei cannot do it?"
Seeing that Wang Mang was ignoring him, the West Sea Dragon King could not help but shout angrily.
Wang Mang was a little annoyed by this. This old fellow had been cheated on, yet he was the one who had to clean up the mess. Although he was displeased, he still replied respectfully, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I'll go capture them right away."
The West Sea Dragon King waved his hand with a dark expression and said, "There's no need to capture them. Just execute them! I don't want to see these two filthy beasts!"
Wang Mang did not waste any time and immediately left the Crystal Palace. The only problem was that he did not know where to find them, or even where to start his search.
If he failed, the Dragon King of the West Sea would probably question whether he was truly qualified to be the Great General of Longwei.
In this vast world of the Journey to the West, where would he find the eloping couple?
However, what Wang Mang did not know was that as soon as he left the Crystal Palace, a hidden sentry had quietly left as well.
After Wang Mang left, the system's voice rang out. [Ding! Host's current status detected! The host is given the following mission options!]
[Mission 1: Complete the mission assigned by the West Sea Dragon King!]
[Mission Time: Until completion.]
[Mission Reward: 100,000 energy points!]
…
[Mission 2: Do your best to complete the West Sea Dragon King's mission!]
[Mission Time: Until completion.]
[Mission Reward: 500,000 energy points, Diamond Treasure Chest x1!]
…
[Mission 3: Slack off until you're bored and then go back and trick the West Sea Dragon King into saying that the mission is completed!]
[Mission time: More than ten days.]
[Mission Reward: 1 million energy points, Diamond Treasure Chest x1!]
…
Wang Mang was stunned. This was also an option?
The system obviously did not want him to work for the West Sea Dragon King. Otherwise, why would such a mission appear?
Of course, Wang Mang himself did not want to complete the mission. What the hell was the point of going off on a wild goose chase like that?
Did the West Sea Dragon King really think that Wang Mang was lackey?
With this thought in mind, Wang Mang made his choice.
"System, I choose Mission 3!"
[Ding! Congratulations! The host has successfully selected a mission option. Please complete the mission as soon as possible to obtain the reward.]
After hearing the system's voice, Wang Mang was in a good mood. He no longer had to worry about finding the couple. The only question was where to hang out and waste time. At this moment, Wang Mang suddenly sensed a terrifying aura coming from the sea below.
Without hesitation, he quickly soared into the sky. He had only gotten a few dozen meters high when a huge demon suddenly leapt out of the sea with its mouth wide open.
This demon looked like a whale. However, it was far bigger than a whale, and nearly a thousand meters long!
From its aura, Wang Mang could tell that it had reached the late stage of the Golden Immortal realm.
Bang!
As the demon leapt out of the water, waves more than a hundred meters high rose on the surface of the sea.
Then, the giant whale turned into a black-robed old man and hovered proudly in the air, looking at him with a cold expression.
Seeing this, Wang Mang frowned. He shouted angrily, "Which rat dared to ambush me? Identify yourself!"
"Ambush you?" The old man sneered, "Are you even worthy? I am the Second Elder of the Dragon King Whale clan!"
"If you know what's good for you, leave the West Sea Dragon Palace and never come back. Otherwise, I'll have no choice but to kill you today!"
Hearing this old man's words, Wang Mang finally understood what was going on. The Dragon King Whale clan coveted the position of the Great General of Longwei, and had thus come to relieve him of his position forcefully.
Wang Mang's eyes turned cold and murderous.
Although this guy had reached the late stage of the Golden Immortal realm, Wang Mang was not weak either.
He was a middle-stage Immortal Emperor and possessed many divine abilities. Therefore, he was not really afraid of fighting this guy. He still considered himself invincible within the same realm.
Thinking this, Wang Mang coldly said, "It remains to be seen as to who will end up dying today."
Hearing Wang Mang's words, the old man was enraged. With a ferocious expression, he said, "Fine then! You've got guts! I gave you a chance to live, but you don't know how to cherish it!"
"You reckless demon, I'll personally send you to see the King of Hell today!"
