Chapter 565: It’s Her?!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As for the other name…
It was a name that Wang Mang was extremely familiar with and hated…
Tong Nian!
When he saw this name, Wang Mang was stunned for a long time.
How was this possible?
How could he possibly fall in love with that b*tch! He hated her to his bones!
If it was not for her, he would have been able to collect immortal stones comfortably in the Sacred Emperor Academy without any worries and easily advance to Tier 5.
In Wang Mang’s opinion, if there was someone he would consider liking, it would be Tong Xin and not Tong Nian! He did not even know why or how her name had shown up here!
As he muttered to himself angrily, Wang Mang kept using the scissors to cut his red string. However, just like the other red strings, it could not be cut!
Everytime he managed to cut it even a little, it would reconnect itself and intertwine itself around Tong Nian’s red string after a while.
F*ck!
How could this be? He had just arrived in this world not long ago, so why was his name on this red string? Hell, Tong Nian was not even in this world?
What was going on?
What did the previous Moon Elder do?
At this moment, Wang Mang felt horrified.
This feeling was indescribable. It was as if there was an unknown existence pulling the strings behind all of this. Moreover, Wang Mang was certain that Tong Nian would have sensed this, even though she was in a completely different world.
After all, she was a Tier 5 expert, and this kind of thing couldn’t be hidden from her.
If she knew that he was connected to her red string, would she not try to kill Wang Mang? She probably hated him as much as he hated her. Their relationship was akin to fire and water.
How could he fall in love with someone? He had never been that kind of guy, and his behavior thus far was indicative of that. He was manipulative, selfish, and greedy.
He used people, not loved people!
However, in the end, he gave up after trying multiple times to cut the string. At the same time, he knew his position as Moon Elder was toast.
Fortunately, there should not be any problems in the short term.
Although something would happen sooner or later, if he could change his position in the Heavenly Court as soon as possible, he might be able to make someone else his scapegoat. All he needed was a lateral transfer to another third-grade official position.
Shaking his head, Wang Mang helplessly walked out and began to ponder his next steps. However, when he returned to the Moon Elder Palace, he saw the Seventh Princess waiting for him.
Wang Mang’s face darkened and he snapped, “Why are you here again?”
Seeing that Wang Mang was acting all cranky and such, the Seventh Princess quickly came alongside him and tugged Wang Mang’s hand, saying coquettishly, “C’mon, Moon Elder, please help me.”
After saying that, the Seventh Princess put on her best pitiful expression.
Clearly, she knew that threatening Wang Mang was useless, so she could only change her approach.
Hearing this, Wang Mang appeared to be deep in thought. He hesitated and said, “About this…”
Seeing Wang Mang hesitate, the Seventh Princess’s eyes lit up and she said happily, “Please, please, please…”
Wang Mang looked hesitant. Then, after quite some time passed, he slowly said, “It’s not impossible, but…”
“But what? Moon Elder, just say it!”
The Seventh Princess looked at Wang Mang expectantly.
Wang Mang smiled and said, “How about this? If you can get the Jade Emperor to transfer me out of this position, 1 will help you tie your red string before I leave.”
Hearing this, the Seventh Princess’ face was filled with surprise.
“Really?”
Wang Mang nodded, his face solemn.
“My words carry weight! You should already be aware that if 1 were to accede to your request, 1 would definitely suffer.”
“Thus, if you can help me resolve this danger, 1 will help you.”
Alright then! Wang Mang decided to make full use of this opportunity. After all, the die had already been cast, so there was no turning back now.
“This is a simple matter! Moon Elder, just wait for my good news! I’ll ask my sisters for help to speak up for you.”
“Transferring you from your position will be a breeze!”
The Seventh Princess immediately patted her chest proudly.
Hearing this, Wang Mang was overjoyed. There was hope for him to escape this predicament!
After all, this was basically a death trap. If he stuck around, the only outcome would be death!
Thinking this, Wang Mang smiled and said, “Then 1 will wait for your good news, Seventh Princess.”
“As long as you manage to successfully transfer me out of this position, before
I leave, I will definitely help you tie your red string.”
“Alright, then it’s settled!”
The Seventh Princess giggled and agreed. Then, she happily left the Moon Elder Palace. Wang Mang could not help but laugh at this sight.
It seems that he was not destined to be the one to take the fall for this matter!
With the Seventh Princess’ help, the transfer should not be an issue. Otherwise, it would have been difficult for him to accomplish this by himself. After all, he lacked connections and status in the Heavenly Court.
In fact, he did not have much real power and authority.
At this moment, another graceful figure walked into the Moon Elder Palace.
A peerless beauty who was dressed in a snow-white veil and had skin as fair as snow.
Wang Mang was stunned.
Who was this?
Why were all the immortals who came to the Moon Elder Palace women?
Moments later, Wang Mang quietly used his information detection skill.
[Target: Third Holy Maiden, HP: 4,300, Energy: 4,300, Level: Golden Immortal realm.]
Third Holy Maiden?
What the f*ck?
Erlang Shen’s sister?
Was she also here to ask him to tie her red string?
She walked up to him and asked with a smile, “May 1 ask if the Moon Elder is present?”
“I am the Moon Elder,” Wang Mang replied expressionlessly, “What can 1 do for you, Third Holy Maiden?”
“What? You’re the Moon Elder?” The Third Holy Maiden looked at Wang Mang curiously and exclaimed.
“Third Holy Maiden, are you here to seek a partner?” Wang Mang nodded slightly and smiled.
The Third Holy Maiden looked at Wang Mang in surprise and asked, “Moon Elder, would you agree to help me?”
Wang Mang hesitated for a moment before nodding.
“I can help you.”
“However, how about this? Help me speak to the Jade Emperor and ask him to transfer me from this position.”
“Before 1 leave, 1’11 help you tie your red string.”
“Is that all it takes?” the Third Holy Mother asked in surprise.
Upon hearing this, Wang Mang’s mouth twitched. As expected of a relative of the Jade Emperor! Only they would consider this such a simple matter!
After all, the Jade Emperor was the uncle of the Third Holy Maiden and Erlang Shen.
“Very well! Moon Elder, just wait for my good news! Leave this matter to me!”
After saying that, the Third Holy Maiden left with great confidence and joy.
The very next moment, the system’s voice rang out in Wang Mang’s mind.
