YM778.TV Chapter 566 - 566: Humiliation!
Wang Mang was overjoyed to hear this.
Two missions had been completed in one go, and he had enough energy points to evolve again!
Now, the only pressing matter was to escape from his current predicament.
Not bad, not bad!
However, at this moment, a man with a cold and stern expression walked into the Moon Elder Palace. He was wearing a domineering set of armor and a crown.
Wang Mang felt an extremely strong sense of oppression emanating from this man. Too strong!
He subconsciously used his information detection skill.
[Target: Erlang Shen, HP: 5,900, Energy: 5,900, Level: PeakTaiyi Golden Immortal realm.)
So this was Erlang Shen!
Wang Mang narrowed his eyes and quietly sized up this cold and stern-looking person.
“You must be the new Moon Elder,” Erlang Shen said slowly.
“Greetings, Immortal Erlang,” Wang Mang respectfully replied.
“There’s no need to be so polite, Moon Elder,” Erlang Shen nodded with a smile.
“However, there is something that you need to help me with.”
“My sister came to look for you earlier, right? 1 know that she wants you to help her with love-related matters, but I don’t want to see her encounter a catastrophe!”
Hearing this, Wang Mang fell silent. With a conflicted expression, he said, “Immortal Erlang, some things are destined.”
“I can only promise Master Erlang that I too share the same perspective, but some things are destined and cannot be avoided.”
“Even I cannot change some things, but I won’t interfere at all.”
Wang Mang was obviously drawing a line in order to avoid any troubles arising from this matter.
That being said, it was the truth. He had not been the one to mess with these people’s red strings.
Hearing this, Erlang Shen fell silent for a moment. He looked at Wang Mang meaningfully, then nodded slightly and turned to leave.
After sending Erlang Shen away, Wang Mang’s head hurt even more. He had to get himself transferred out of his position as soon as possible.
Fortunately, Wang Mang did not have to wait for too long. Two days later, Wang Mang received news. In the morning, Wang Mang was greeted by the emissary sent by the Jade Emperor as he walked into the Moon Elder Palace.
Seeing the white-haired and kind-looking Taibai Jinxing, Wang Mang hurriedly went forward and cupped his hands.
“Greetings, Taibai Jinxing!”
“Moon Elder, there’s no need to be so polite. I have been instructed by the Jade Emperor to transfer you from your position and appoint you as the Star Lord (Martial Star Lord).”
“In the future, Fellow Daoist will have to report to Emperor Ziwei of the North.”
After hearing Taibai Jinxing’s words, Wang Mang was stunned.
He had never imagined that he would be transferred to Emperor Ziwei’s side.
Emperor Ziwei’s status was not low, as in the Heavenly Court, the structure at the top was the Three Pure Ones, followed by the Six Royals.
The Three Pure Ones referred to the three Saints.
The Six Royals were:
The Central Jade Emperor!
Emperor Ziwei of the North!
Emperor Chang Sheng of the South!
Emperor Qinghua of the East!
The Emperor of the West!
The Netherworld Emperor!
From this, it could be seen that Emperor Ziwei’s status was extremely high; only slightly inferior to the Jade Emperor’s. However, he did not know whether to be happy or sad, as he had basically been shifted from the main central faction to Emperor Ziwei’s North faction.
Before Wang Mang could think further, Taibai Jinxing smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist, please come with me! I’ll bring you to Emperor Ziwei right away.”
Wang Mang nodded slightly and silently followed behind Taibai Jinxing.
On the way to meet Emperor Ziwei, Taibai Jinxing kindly said, “Fellow Daoist, I hope you can understand the Jade Emperor’s good intentions.”
“Although the Jade Emperor has transferred you to Emperor Ziwei, I hope your loyalty will not change!”
Hearing this, Wang Mang’s mouth twitched.
If he continued to be loyal to the Jade Emperor, he would not be able to do well under Emperor Ziwei. He might even die without knowing how.
Therefore, if he really joined Emperor Ziwei’s side, Wang Mang would have to abandon his identity as the Jade Emperor’s supporter.
In fact, if necessary, Wang Mang would even express his loyalty to Emperor Ziwei and strive for a better life under him.
Needless to say, Emperor Ziwei was one of the strongest three within the Six Royals, so his strength was definitely not inferior to the Jade Emperor’s.
Thus, no matter how much Taibai Jinxing tried to persuade him, Wang Mang would not give an affirmative reply.
Seeing this, Taibai Jinxing frowned.
He could naturally tell that Wang Mang was pretending not to hear him. In any case, the Jade Emperor was unbothered by someone as minor as Wang Mang, which was why he had transferred Wang Mang over in the first place.
Seeing that Wang Mang was ignoring him, Taibai Jinxing left after bringing Wang Mang to the Ziwei Imperial Palace.
Seeing this, Wang Mang smiled helplessly and walked into the Ziwei Imperial Palace alone.
The soldiers and generals outside the Ziwei Imperial Palace seemed to be aware of the transfer, and did not stop Wang Mang.
After entering the Ziwei Imperial Palace with a blank expression, Wang Mang carefully sized it up as he walked along.
In the main hall of the Ziwei Imperial Palace, a looming majestic figure sat on the throne covered by purple qi.
“Who are you? Why aren’t you kneeling in front of me?”
Hearing this, Wang Mang hurriedly cupped his hands and bowed.
“I was transferred to the position of Martial Star Lord under Your Majesty.”
On the throne, the majestic voice rang out again.
“You’re just a third-grade official. Why are you under me?”
“Your Majesty, 1 don’t know.”
Wang Mang lowered his head helplessly.
“Not long after I entered the Heavenly Court, I was transferred from the position of Moon Elder to here.”
Moments later, the dignified and cold voice spoke again.
“The position of Martial Star Lord has already been taken. It’s impossible to give it to you.”
“The other Constellation positions aren’t vacant either.”
“I want you to become a captain of the soldiers. Are you willing?”
Wang Mang’s face instantly stiffened when he heard this, and he felt a towering rage well up within him.. To Wang Mang, this was an undisguised attempt at humiliating him!
