Chapter 524: Phew!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Hearing this, Wang Mang knew that things were bad. This guy was crazy!
After all, even if this fellow was a Level 6 student, killing someone inside the Sacred Emperor Academy was definitely a capital offense. The only exception to that were fights in the arena.
Therefore, the fact that he had killed those three students meant that he was prepared to die!
Wang Mang had not expected things to develop to this stage.
It was simply beyond his expectations!
This was barely the first stage of the plan, yet this guy had already gone off the deep end. The problem was that he was now in danger!
At this moment, Wang Mang saw the other party charging toward him, and knew that this fellow wanted to take him down before the academy’s personnel arrived.
Although he was a little flustered, he quickly turned tail to flee. He might not be able to defeat an Immortal Prime realm expert, but he could still run!
However, just as Wang Mang turned to flee, a figure suddenly blocked the middle-aged man’s path, and both figures attacked each other!
Bang!
Their palms collided, and terrifying shockwaves swept out, causing the ground to tremble.
Wang Mang heaved a sigh of relief when he looked back.
It turned out that Smiling Buddha had stepped in to stop the middle-aged man. Wang Mang took this opportunity to put some distance between them.
If the situation turned bad, he would immediately run towards the Sacred Emperor Academy.
At this moment, the middle-aged man said angrily, “Smiling Buddha, are you sure you want to stop me?”
The man was infuriated, but his tone was also filled with helplessness.
This was because Smiling Buddha was actually stronger than he was!
Smiling Buddha ignored the question and said, “You’re still in the mood to kill? You should know that you won’t even have a chance to escape when the law enforcers arrive.”
The middle-aged man glared at Wang Mang with killing intent. He gritted his teeth and said, “Even if 1 die, 1 will kill this damned b*stard!”
Smiling Buddha smiled.
“You won’t have the chance. With me around, it’s impossible for you to kill him.”
“You…”
The furious middle-aged man’s voice trailed off. He glared at Wang Mang with killing intent, and then turned around and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, Wang Mang quickly muttered, “System, use the Bad Luck Card on this guy!”
[Ding! Congratulations! You have successfully used the Bad Luck Card!]
After hearing the system’s voice, Wang Mang snickered. He knew just how potent this card was. The man was going to be in trouble soon.
However, what Wang Mang did not know was that the man who was about to escape, became even more furious when he heard Wang Mang’s laughter.
Wang Mang was mocking and humiliating him. It was going too far!
In his rage, the middle-aged man suddenly erupted with power as he raised his hand and slammed his palm toward Wang Mang!
Wang Mang jumped up in fright and dodged it by a hair’s breadth. His heart was beating like a thousand horses.
F*ck! He had almost died there!
After seeing Wang Mang dodge, the middle-aged man reluctantly gave up and prepared to escape.
However, at this moment, five figures flew out from the Sacred Emperor Academy, and from their auras, one could tell that they were all Immortal Prime realm experts.
They were as fast as lightning, and their target was the middle-aged man, as one of them shouted angrily,
“Gongyang! You killed students of the Sacred Emperor Academy and disrespected the academy’s rules! Surrender!”
The middle-aged man’s expression changed drastically when he saw these five, and he immediately turned tail and fled.
However, he was suddenly intercepted by a powerful palm strike, which made him stagger backward. This gave the five Immortal Prime realm experts the opportunity they needed to catch up.
As for which peak-level Immortal Prime realm expert had attacked, Wang Mang had no idea. However, what happened next left Wang Mang dumbstruck.
The middle-aged man took out a talisman and quickly activated it. In an instant, his figure disappeared!
It was a Tier 5 Spatial Teleportation Talisman!
After seeing this fellow escape, the five Immortal Prime realm experts hesitated for a moment, before turning and flying in a certain direction.
Wang Mang heaved a sigh of relief.
Although this incident had been a little dangerous, the outcome was that he had successfully gotten rid of a competitor.
Thus, business at his stall would definitely improve!
Thinking this, a sense of joy filled his heart. He turned to Smiling Buddha and said gratefully “Thank you for your help, Brother!”
Although Wang Mang was confident in his ability to flee, that did not change the fact that Smiling Buddha had acted to save him. This fellow was a good person, after all!
At the very least, he treated him well.
“Kid, be more subtle next time. This isn’t how you compete,” Smiling Buddha said quietly.
He had not expected Wang Mang to be so ruthless. This seemingly harmless fellow was clearly very similar to him in character, even if he looked approachable and harmless on the surface.
Beneath that veneer lay a dark and ruthless heart.
Wang Mang chuckled, neither denying nor admitting it. Honestly, he had not expected things to spiral out of control like this either. However, the end result was still achieved, so everything was okay.
Thinking this, Wang Mang glanced at the other old man at the pill stall, who by coincidence, also looked his way.
When their eyes met, it felt like sparks were flying everywhere!
Wang Mang pretended as if nothing had happened, and simply nodded at the other party with a smile.
Seeing this, the old man felt a wave of panic wash over him.
Was this despicable person going to use a similar tactic to deal with him as well?
