Chapter 595 - 595: Meeting Her
The Golden Gate General and the Silver Gate General were even more dumbfounded by the second statement.
They had never expected Wang Mang to be so cruel and greedy!
No! This could no longer be called greed. It was daylight robbery!
People charged one immortal stone per person at the South Gate, but Wang Mang wanted to charge them 100 immortal stones?
Therefore, the two of them hurriedly said in fear, “Milord, wait! That’s too much!”
“That’s right! Milord, if you really charge that much, I’m afraid it’ll cause a ruckus and even anger many cultivators.”
As they spoke, the two of them looked at Wang Mang with trepidation. This new general was completely different from the last one!
He was more powerful, and also far more black-hearted!
Seeing the two of them act like this, although Wang Mang was a little unhappy, after thinking about it seriously, he felt that it made sense.
Wang Mang nodded slowly.
“Very well. We will set the entrance fee at ten immortal stones for the time being. If it doesn’t work, we’ll make adjustments.”
After hearing Wang Mang’s words, the two of them heaved a sigh of relief even though they felt extremely troubled. It was still shameless to charge ten immortal stones, but it was far better than the alternative.
Moreover, in their opinion, Wang Mang would backtrack on his decision once people started to complain.
However, what they did not know was that Wang Mang’s thoughts were the exact opposite of theirs. Even if people complained about not being able to afford it, he would raise the price!
“Alright! 10 immortal stones per person it is. Hand over 70% to me, while the 30% will be split among the rest. You two will be responsible for this.”
Wang Mang then turned his gaze to the thousands of soldiers and slowly said, “In the future, you will supervise each other. If someone fails to carry out my orders, come to my residence and tell me, and I will reward you handsomely!”
Upon hearing Wang Mang’s words, the generals and soldiers trembled and replied loudly, “We will obey the general’s orders!”
Wang Mang nodded in satisfaction.
Then, Wang Mang waved his hand and said, “Very good! Go ahead and carry out my orders.”
With that, Wang Mang left in a good mood.
Yes, this was none of his business. It seemed that his role here was not too difficult. All he had to do was give out orders and let his subordinates carry it out.
Wang Mang was very satisfied with this kind of lucrative and easy job.
However, at this moment, who;e Wang Mang was on his way back to his residence.
On a distant street, a graceful figure suddenly attracted Wang Mang’s attention. When he saw who it was, Wang Mang was completely dumbfounded.
Was this not Tong Nian?
At the same time, Tong Nian also spotted Wang Mang.
When she saw Wang Mang, her pretty face revealed a look of astonishment.
Clearly, she had never expected to meet Wang Mang here. Why was this guy not dead yet?
After all, although the Million Mountain Range looked peaceful, it was extremely chaotic, and killing was common and unsupervised.
Killing and looting could be seen everywhere, and all kinds of things could happen. However, somehow this fellow actually survived!
What shocked her even more was that Wang Mang’s strength had risen too quickly!
How long had it been?
Only a year or two!
Wang Mang had already reached the middle stage of the Immortal Prime realm.
In addition, she could sense that Wang Mang’s current strength was no weaker than an ordinary late-stage Immortal Prime realm expert.
Thinking this, Tong Nian’s heart sank, and killing intent flashed across her beautiful eyes. After all, she did not have a good impression of Wang Mang.
This sinister and shameless villain had tricked her sister into stealing her pill formula.
Should she kill him right now?
Killing intent surged through Tong Nian’s heart.
However, after thinking about it, she ruled out this idea.
This was because she had told Wang Mang before that as long as he left the academy, the grudge would be written off.
If she were to kill Wang Mang now, would she not be breaking her promise? In any case, he was still weaker than she was, so she did not have to rush things.
With this thought in mind, her expression became indifferent, and her beautiful face was still cold and distant. Of course, Wang Mang had no idea what was going on in Tong Nian’s mind.
Rather, what he wanted to do was strut in front of her and tell her personally that her efforts to kill him before this were futile.
However, Wang Mang decided to forget about it. It would be bad if he really angered this woman before he reached Tier 5. After that, he would humiliate her mercilessly!
At this moment, the two of them met face to face and were about to brush past each other.
“Remember, don’t ever let me see you near the Sacred Emperor Academy. “Otherwise, I will kill you without hesitation!”bender
Then, the two of them brushed past each other.
The other party’s cold warning rang out in Wang Mang’s ears.
Wang Mang’s body stiffened, and his heart was filled with rage. This was simply going too far!
He really wanted to slap Tong Nian’s face. It could be said that Wang Mang hated Tong Nian to the bone!
However, while Wang Mang was feeling aggrieved and angry…
Suddenly, from the sky, a dignified voice spoke.
This voice was like a clap of thunder that reverberated through the nine heavens!
“Little girl! You’re really arrogant!”
“How dare you! How dare you act presumptuous in front of me, An Lan!”
“Do you believe that even if I have to hold the Primordial Emperor City with one hand and carry the Heavenly Abyss on my back, I can still suppress you with one hand!”
