Chapter 464 - 464: Surrounded!
Wang Mang looked at Han Meng in shock.
Killing a Tier 5 expert? That would be akin to a suicide mission!
Hell, even if he tried to blow himself up to kill the Tier 5 expert, the latter would simply laugh it off.
At this thought, Wang Mang sighed emotionally and said, “In that case, it looks like our luck is pretty good.”
Han Meng smiled and nodded.
“It’s not just pretty good, but very good. Now that the mission is done, we can leave for the Pillar of Heavens Mountain.”
Wang Mang shook his head.
“Not yet. My subordinate, Xiao Tianquan, hasn’t arrived yet.”
“Well wait at the city gate for him. Once he arrives, well set off immediately.”
Hearing Wang Mang’s words, Han Meng nodded helplessly. Although she really wanted to complete the final mission, she did not dare to set off without Wang Mang.
She did not want a repeat of the incident where she was caught and sold.
Then, they set off for the city. However, as they were passing through a forest, Wang Mang suddenly sensed that something was wrong.
There were several auras of Heaven Immortal realm experts nearby.
At this moment, a mocking voice rang out, “Quite cautious, but it’s useless.”
Wang Mang raised his head and saw eight Heaven Immortal realm experts emerging from every side, surrounding them.
Among the eight experts, there were humans, demons, and a pair of fat and thin bald monks. His heart sank.
He could tell from their auras that these guys were not weak!
Five of them should be early-stage Heaven Immortal realm experts, while the two monks had reached the middle stage of the Heaven Immortal realm.
The last and strongest was a black-robed old man. He was thin and haggard, and had a deep and cold gaze.
His aura was a little strange, but from the fluctuations, Wang Mang guessed that this old man was a late-stage Heaven Immortal realm expert!
Sh*t!
What was going on?
“Fellow Daoists, what do you mean? We don’t have any grudges between us, right?”
Hearing this, the fat monk smiled and said, “No, we don’t, but we want your money. Oh, and the girl too! We should be able to sell her for a good price.”
At this moment, another man laughed and said, “Fat Monk, must you sell her? I’ve been eyeing her since the auction at the square.”
“These young demons are all rich and overbearing! He’s probably loaded.”
“If we capture him and ask his family for resources, we’ll probably be able to earn quite a bit.”
Hearing this, Wang Mang was stunned.
Good heavens!
Wang Mang had never expected this!
It seemed that he had been targeted because he purchased Han Meng at the auction. These people had tagged him as a rich heir of some family, and wanted to extort resources by holding him hostage.
This was a complete oversight on his part!
F*ck!
Wang Mang knew that it would be difficult to escape this time. It was eight versus three. There was no need to include himself or Han Meng in the equation since neither of them would be able to last very long against a Heaven Immortal realm expert.
The only option was to run…
However, that presented a whole different set of problems. Wang Mang was confident in his own speed, but how could his subordinates or Han Meng escape?
Furthermore, if Han Meng died, would he still be eligible to complete the final mission?
There was no way he was going to risk finding out the hard way.
Sigh…
Did he really have to fight?
Hey…
Wait a second…
He recalled a certain something, and his eyes lit up.
He still had the Love Bewitching Fragrance!
This thing was effective against any Tier 3 expert!
Honestly, he did not want to use it, but if not now, then when?
They had to get to safety first!
“Pay attention. I’m going to do something. Remember to hold your breath later!”
Wang Mang sent a voice transmission to his subordinates and Han Meng.
Both his subordinates and Han Meng remained calm, but replied affirmatively that they had received his message.
At this moment, the eight experts wore sinister smiles as they slowly walked over from different directions to close the encirclement.
However, out of the blue, Wang Mang suddenly shouted angrily, “Wait!”
This stunned all of the experts, including Wang Mang’s own subordinates.
The eight Heaven Immortal realm experts looked coldly at Wang Mang and sneered. One of them said, “What’s wrong, kid? Scared?”
“It’s useless. None of you can escape today!”
“Brat, just surrender!”
Wang Mang did not respond, but instead took out something shaped like a small ball. He used his power to ignite it, which caused it to emit thick green smoke.
Seeing this, the expressions of the experts changed slightly. The old man also seemed to have suddenly turned vigilant.
However, just as they were about to attack and snatch the ball from his hand, Wang Mang suddenly threw it into the sky and shouted, “Heed my call! Send the troops!”
Hearing Wang Mang’s roar, the old man’s expression changed drastically. He said angrily, “Trying to send a signal? Dream on!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the old man raised his hand and unleashed a palm strike which caused the ball to disintegrate. When it did, the smoke shrouded the forest in green smoke.
At the same time, Wang Mang sent a voice transmission to the others, “Run to the city now!”
Hearing this, Shan Jun and the other two, as well as Han Meng, flew into the sky and frantically rushed toward Dark Dragon City. Wang Mang also followed close behind them.
However, he also glanced backward to see what would happen.
Down below, the old man had a flushed face as he looked at Wang Mang with both shock and anger as he roared, “Brat! What did you do just now?”
“Why is this my body itching and my heart burning?”
