Chapter 449 - 449: Novice Village (Part 2)
After hearing this, Wang Mang stopped in his tracks. As did Xiao Tianquan.
They were only a few meters away from the village entrance.
At the same time, Wang Mang abruptly turned to look at the old man who had warned him earlier, who was still looking at them with a mocking expression.
Just as Wang Mang was about to ask, the pot-bellied man roared, “You old cur, what nonsense are you spouting?”
Then, the man turned to Wang Mang and smiled.
“Ignore this old man. He’s just a rabid dog.”
“Let’s go! We have to hurry up and get you your permits before the sun sets. Otherwise, it will be too dangerous to journey through the forest.”
As he spoke, the man reached out to pull Wang Mang, but Wang Mang took two steps back, maintaining a distance from him. Wang Mang was no fool!
After hearing the old man’s reminder, he realized just how strange and suspicious the situation was.
Upon seeing this, the pot-bellied man’s expression instantly darkened. His gaze was cold as he asked, “Don’t you believe me?”
“If you don’t believe me, then get out of our village! Without a permit, we don’t welcome any strangers!”
Hearing this, Wang Mang immediately knew that something was up, and sneered.
“Why are you in such a hurry to get us to leave the village? It seems that you are up to no good.”
The man’s expression turned cold as he stared at the sloppy old man in the distance with a sinister gaze, but he did not speak.
At this moment, it was the sloppy old man who spoke, “There is indeed a permit to enter the village. However, only human experts need to apply for it.” “This isn’t a village that demons can enter. Normally, demon race experts who enter by mistake will be coaxed out of the village by these guys and then suppressed, captured and slaughtered.”
“However, this village has a rule. You can’t use force in the village. If not for this rule, the two of you would have been captured and slaughtered by them when you walked into the village streets just now!”
“If you don’t believe me, just look at how many villagers are following you.”
After hearing this, Wang Mang immediately felt a chill run down his spine.
Then, he subconsciously turned around and saw more than ten peak-level Earth Immortal realm experts not far away.
F*ck! The old man was telling the truth!
If they had left the village, these experts would have all jumped out and suppressed them!
F*ck! This world is too dangerous!
At this moment, the pot-bellied man’s cold voice rang out, “Old cur, you better not leave this village. Otherwise, I will slaughter you and roast you!”
After saying that, the man left, and the other experts left, clearly disappointed at the loss of two products.
Seeing them leave, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
After regaining his senses, Wang Mang turned around and walked toward the sloppy old man, his face full of gratitude.
“Thank you for your reminder, Senior!”
Now that he was able to take a closer look, he realized that this old man was also a peak-level Earth Immortal realm expert.
Unfortunately, his gratitude was met with disdain.
“It was not you that 1 wished to save, but him.”
As he spoke, the sloppy old man pointed at Xiao Tianquan. Well, Wang Mang did not feel too bad about this. In the end, thanks to Xiao Tianquan, he had lucked out.
“Many thanks for Senior’s reminder. If it wasn’t for Senior, Master and I would have been doomed.”
Xiao Tianquan cupped his hands respectfully and gratefully.
Hearing this, the sloppy old man nodded in satisfaction. He then frowned and asked, “What are you guys thinking? Why did you come to this village?”
“Didn’t your elders tell you that you shouldn’t enter any villages or towns where human experts are active? Especially one that is filled with only human experts!”
These words were not meant for Wang Mang, but for Xiao Tianquan.
Xiao Tianquan shook his head blankly and said, “I’ve not been told about this!”
This reply left the sloppy old man speechless.
“Then heed my words. Only leave the village when you are confident that you can escape all of them. Otherwise, you’ll end up on the chopping block like the others.”
After saying that, the sloppy old man waved his hand, indicating that Wang Mang and Xiao Tianquan should leave.
However, Wang Mang was not willing to leave so easily. He had yet to discover any clues to his or Xiao Tianquan’s targets.
“Senior, I want to ask you about two people, Han Meng and Dilreba. Are there these two people in this village?”
Hearing this, the sloppy old man looked at Wang Mang and Xiao Tianquan in astonishment and asked in confusion, “Why are demons asking about two humans?”
“Han Meng?”
“Who is that?”
“If you’re so interested, go ask around the village yourself. In any case, the humans won’t dare to attack you as long as you stay inside the village.” “However, you must not anger them. Otherwise, once they target you, you won’t even have the chance to escape!”
Upon hearing this, Wang Mang was overjoyed. Just as he was about to speak, the system’s voice rang out.
