Chapter 269 - 269: Two Familiar Faces (Part 1)
After examining his stats, Wang Mang nodded in satisfaction.
Although he was still some distance away from his goal of reaching the 7,000-year mark before the apocalypse, it seemed feasible now.
Furthermore, he knew that he was capable of defeating most of the terrestrial demon emperors in the Red Empire now, except for those who had surpassed the 7,000-year mark.
Below that level, he was likely almost invincible!
Thinking this, Wang Mang happily left the cave.
As he had been away for over a month, Wang Mang felt that it was about time to return to his cave and territory to take a look.
Given his current speed, it would not take very long to cover the distance anyway. After checking the map, Wang Mang transformed into his massive form and soared into the clouds, hurrying home.
As night had fallen, he did not really have to worry about being spotted, and flew quickly under the cover of darkness.
Two hours later, he arrived at his home territory and decided to make the rest of the journey on foot.
Well, not that he had feet…
However, what surprised Wang Mang was that as soon as he landed on the ground, he vaguely sensed a trace of a familiar aura in the air.
Wait, it was not one aura, but two!
Then, Wang Mang saw a scene that could be only described as comical.
He saw the Tribulation Monk desperately chasing after the Black Bear Demon King.
What were these two doing over here?
Also, the Black Bear Demon King seemed to have grown much stronger, and had become a great demon king.
It seemed that the other party’s harvest from the New Frontier Province had been quite exceptional. Was it being chased because of some treasures again? It seemed likely!
After admiring the scene for a while, Wang Mang’s gaze turned cold.
This baldy had done a number on him back then, so he was itching for revenge. It seemed that fate had kindly allowed them to meet here.
Wang Mang’s cold snake eyes revealed a chilling killing intent.
At this moment, the system’s voice rang out.
[Ding! Host’s current status detected! The host is given the following mission options! J
[Mission 1: After coming face-to-face with your former enemy, turn a blind eye and ignore him! ]

[Mission 3: After coming face-to-face with your former enemy, take revenge and kill him!]
[Mission Time: Until completion]
[Mission Reward: 400 million evolution value, Advanced Gacha! ]
After hearing the system’s voice, Wang Mang laughed. The mission was the icing on the cake. He was going to kill the baldy anyway.
“System, I choose Mission 3!”
He did not hesitate at all. After all, he was now a demon emperor. Crushing this badly should not be difficult at all, right?
His wings unfurled and he took on his massive form as he soared into the sky. Within the blink of an eye, Wang Mang had already reached the two.
When he sensed Wang Mang’s terrifying aura billowing over, the Tribulation Monk was shocked.
He immediately gave up chasing the Black Bear Demon King and frantically made a run for it. Then, he spotted Wang Mang in all of his glory…
The monk gulped and a sense of bitterness and helplessness filled his heart.
He wanted to kill some demon kings to nourish his body and increase his strength. However, he had specifically only gone after those that he believed he was capable of killing.
How had he been so unlucky as to run into a demon emperor here?
The monk nervously glanced at Wang Mang over his shoulder as he fled.
Clearly, he still had not recognized Wang Mang!
Actually, the Black Bear Demon King had not either, as Wang Mang’s current appearance was too domineering.
He had two horns on his head and four wings on his back. His entire body was crimson like lava, and was emitting a terrifying amount of heat.
Also, he was exuding the demonic aura of a demon emperor!
In any case, the Black Bear Demon King was delighted.
As he ran over, he cried out pitifully, “Lord Demon Emperor, you have to seek justice for me! This human is too detestable.”
“He said that he would kill every demon he saw. He also said that he would kill all of the demon emperors.”
“This damned human monk is nothing compared to our powerful demon race and demon emperors!” “If you hadn’t arrived in time, I’m afraid that I would have lost my little life!”
