Chapter 214 - 214 New Great Guardian?
Since the system was giving him an incentive, and he was determined to achieve his goal of becoming a demon emperor before the apocalypse, Wang Mang muttered, “System, I choose Mission 3!”
[Ding! 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 confirmation, Wang Mang moved his massive body out of the cave.
Up in the sky, the sun and the moon were still present together.
Wang Mang then changed his size and sprouted wings, flying into the sky. This was his fastest mode of transport.
Three days later, above a mountain forest, Wang Mang could be seen flying across the sky at high speed.
He was searching for demon emperors’ territories.
However, he did not know where he was, and he failed to find any traces of a demon emperor.
Thus, Wang Mang had no choice but to stop flying and instead searched the forest below for demon kings.
He belatedly realized that he had no idea where the demon emperors were.
As such, some information gathering was in order. It was very likely that some of these demon kings would know about the presence of a nearby demon emperor.
Not long after, Wang Mang detected the aura of a demon king, and made his way toward it.
When Wang Mang arrived at the base of a mountain, he flew up and released his own demonic aura without restraint.
Then, an angry voice came from the top of the mountain, “Who is it? How dare you behave atrociously in my territory?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Mang saw a three-meter-tall gorilla charging down from the peak toward him.
However, when the muscular black gorilla saw Wang Mang, it immediately stopped in its tracks.
That was not the aura of an ordinary demon king!
This was definitely a great demon king!
Thinking of this, his arrogant attitude immediately disappeared.
At the same time, he carefully approached Wang Mang and smiled at him.
“May I know what Your Majesty is looking for? I will do my best to help and will definitely not decline!”
Hearing this, Wang Mang nodded in satisfaction. This fellow’s ability to read the room and adapt was quite impressive.
Thinking this, Wang Mang asked, “Are there any demon emperors in the nearby provinces?”
Upon hearing this, the Gorilla Demon King thought for a while before shaking his head.
“Your Majesty, there is no demon emperor in this province. If Your Majesty wants to find a demon emperor, you can look for one in another province.”
“There are two demon emperors in the Great Khingan Mountains of the Black Jiang Province.”
Wang Mang shook his head indifferently. “That’s too far away. Think about it carefully. Where else might there be a demon emperor?”
Faced with Wang Mang’s question, the Gorilla Demon King pondered for a moment before carefully replying, “Your Majesty, other than that, there’s the Tiger Emperor in the neighboring province!”
“And the Willow Emperor, the Tree Emperor, and the Stone Emperor in the West Frontier Province. ”
“Or, the Dog Emperor of the West Guang Province.”
Hearing this, Wang Mang nodded in satisfaction.
“Alright! Well done.”
Upon hearing this, the Gorilla Demon King respectfully left.
Wang Mang began to ponder which demon emperor he should visit first.
There were three emperors in West Frontier Province, namely the Willow Emperor, the Tree Emperor, and the Stone Emperor.
The Tiger Emperor was in the Four Rivers Province, and the Dog Emperor was in the West Guang Province.
There is a dog emperor in Xiguang Province.
Where was the Flower Emperor the eagle demon had told him about?
Wang Mang had no idea.
There were two emperors in the Yellow River and one emperor in the Yangtze River.
After thinking for a while, Wang Mang decided to visit the Dog Emperor’s hideout first, as it was the closest.
Alright, the Tiger Emperor was actually closer to Wang Mang, but there was no need to poke the bear.
He was also already familiar with the Dog Emperor, and he was also the Dog Emperor’s great guardian. Perhaps he would be able to make use of this identity.
There was another important reason.
The Dog Emperor obviously liked to steal from others, which meant that this fellow likely had the most treasures!
Thinking about this, he felt excited, and immediately set off toward the West Guang Province, and arrived there after two days.
He made his way to the cave where he had once evolved. It was in this place that he had first met the Dog Emperor.
Thus, Wang Mang decided to look for that wild boar demon.
After arriving outside the cave, Wang Mang immediately shouted, “Wild boar demon, come out!”
Moments later, the wild boar demon’s angry roar resounded, “Which reckless fool dares to provoke me?”
Then, Wang Mang saw the wild boar demon rushing out of the cave in a rage. However, when it saw Wang Mang, it said in astonishment, “Why is it you again?”
Clearly, the wild boar demon had not forgotten Wang Mang!
This was because Wang Mang had once occupied its hideout.
...
At that moment, the wild boar demon seemed to have thought of something.
It immediately raised its head arrogantly and said in a mocking tone, “What’s wrong? Did you sense the chaos in the world and come to seek refuge with Lord Dog Emperor?”
“Back then, Lord Dog Emperor thought highly of you, so he gave you the position of great guardian, but now, Lord Dog Emperor has a new great guardian!”
“Lord Dog Emperor has many talented people under him. He doesn’t lack subordinates, little python!”
“Therefore, get lost!”
