BXBX NOVEL Chapter 647 - 647: Disaster!
Seeing this scene, Wang Mang immediately felt bitter and panicked.
This was because he could tell from Zhu Long’s reaction how important the Dragon Transformation Pool was to the dragon clan.
Wang Mang immediately looked terrified and hurriedly explained, “1 don’t know anything about that!”
Wang Mang then turned to face Zhu Long’s cold gaze and continued to explain, “When I entered the Dragon Transformation Pool, I felt my body burning up, but my strength was also increasing.”
“Therefore, I have been enduring the boiling dragon blood, living a life worse than death.”
“Then, after an unknown period of time, when I woke up again, I found that the burning pain had subsided. At the same time, 1 discovered that there was not much dragon blood left in the Dragon Transformation Pool…”
Wang Mang was not lying. That was the truth.
However, even so, Wang Mang’s forehead was drenched in sweat.
That was because he could sense Zhu Long’s intense killing intent toward him earlier.
Even though Wang Mang had already become stronger, this killing intent still restrained him completely. Thus, as he explained the matter, he quietly made preparations.
If Zhu Long attacked, he would immediately flee to the Sage Emperor Continent.
Fortunately, after hearing Wang Mang’s explanation, Zhu Long did nothing of the sort.
On the contrary, Zhu Long immediately began to try and divine fate. After doing so, he nodded with a gloomy expression and said in a low voice, “It’s indeed as you said!”
“However, you have indeed caused our dragon clan to suffer great losses.”
“So, although you didn’t know, you have to make up for it!”
“How about this? Go to the dragon tomb and find the Ancestral Dragon’s body!”
“If you can find the body of the Ancestral Dragon, it will be considered as making up for your mistakes! How about it?”
The two old dragons who had wanted to kill Wang Mang strangely quieted down after hearing Zhu Long’s words.
This made Wang Mang realize that this so-called Dragon Tomb was somewhat unusual and definitely not a good place.
In fact, Wang Mang’s guess was correct.
The Dragon Tomb was where the fallen dragons were laid to rest. Experts who were about to pass away had to enter the dragon tomb.
Members of the dragon clan who were loyal to the dragon clan would choose to place their dragon blood into the Dragon Transformation Pool before entering the dragon tomb for their final rest.
More importantly, no one who entered the dragon tomb had ever come out alive. Of course, Wang Mang did not know about this.
However, the higher-ups of the dragon clan knew this very well.
As for why those who entered the dragon tomb had never come out alive, no one knew.
Only the Dragon Emperors knew.
For example, Zhu Long knew. It was because there was still a powerful dragon inside the dragon tomb who was hiding from the world!
From the peak of the dragon clan’s glory to its decline, this mighty dragon expert had never appeared. Even when the Ancestral Dragon fell, this expert did not appear.
However, the strength of this mighty dragon expert was once comparable to the Ancestral Dragon.
As for why Zhu Long had sent Wang Mang into the dragon tomb?
Of course, it was to send Wang Mang to his death!
This was because Wang Mang had drained the Dragon Transformation Pool, yet had still not become a dragon.
This made Zhu Long very dissatisfied, and his good impression of Wang Mang also disappeared.
However, it would be a pity to kill him, and the dragon blood Wang Mang absorbed would be wasted.
It was precisely because of this that he thought of sending Wang Mang into the dragon tomb. He would leave it to that expert to decide whether or not to kill Wang Mang. Perhaps devouring Wang Mang would provide him with good nourishment.
At the same time, just as Wang Mang was wondering what this so-called dragon tomb was, the system’s voice rang out in his mind.
[Ding! Host’s current status detected! The host is given the following mission options!]
[Mission 1: Faced with Zhu Long’s killing intent, readily agree and enter the dragon tomb to wait for death! ]
[Mission Time: Until completion.]
[Mission Reward: What else do you want if you’re already dead?]
[Mission 2: Faced with Zhu Long’s killing intent, reject the order decisively and kill Zhu Long!]
[Mission Time: Until completion.]

[Mission 3: Faced with Zhu Long’s killing intent, successfully escape from Zhu Long!]
[Mission Time: Until completion.]
[Mission Reward: 100 million energy points, Immortal Treasure Chest xi!]
After hearing the system’s notification, Wang Mang was so frightened that he almost cried out like a pig.
Good heavens!
Zhu Long actually wanted to kill him?
Just because of the Dragon Transformation Pool?
Thinking this, Wang Mang panicked.
He knew that since Zhulong had the intention to kill him, he had to act fast. In any case, the choice was simple. There was no way he would choose to die, and nor could he kill Zhu Long.
Therefore, he could only choose the third mission option.
‘Sigh! It looks like I’m going to run again!’
Thinking this, Wang Mang felt extremely helpless.
He, a dignified Zenith Heaven realm expert, still could not escape the fate of running away.
At this point, what could Wang Mang say? He could only accept reality!
“System, 1 choose Mission 3!”
[Ding! Congratulations! The host has successfully selected a mission option!
Please complete the mission as soon as possible!]
At this moment, Zhulong’s cold voice suddenly sounded.
“What? Don’t tell me you’re not even willing to do something for my dragon clan?”
Hearing Zhu Long’s words, Wang Mang instantly came back to his senses and looked up at Zhu Long.
When he saw the other party’s extremely cold gaze, Wang Mang hurriedly cupped his hands and said, “I should, I should!”
“However, Dragon Emperor, 1 wish to bring my subordinate Wu Shi with me so that we can take care of each other.”
“Also, I’ve joined the dragon clan, but I don’t know where the dragon tomb is. “Therefore, I hope that the Fifth Elder can bring me to the dragon tomb.”
Wang Mang obviously wanted to take this opportunity to kill the Fifth Elder and complete his other mission!
