Whoa? What was with these mission options?
The first option was a definite no-go. It would grant him temporary reprieve, but once the Jade Emperor entered the picture, he would be dead meat.
The second mission option was rhe most acceptable. As for the third, it would sate his anger, but he would most likely die as well!
Thinking this, Wang Mang muttered, “System, I choose Mission 2!”
[Ding! The host has successfully selected a mission option! Please complete the mission as soon as possible to obtain the reward.]
Wang Mang then raised his head to look at the proud Seventh Princess and said coldly, “Even if you tell the Jade Emperor, 1 won’t agree to your request.”
“The Heavenly Court forbids intermarriage, much less dating, between immortals and mortals.”
“You can go now! There’s no need to say anything else!”
Seeing Wang Mang s cold refusal and uncompromising look, she was stunned. She had never expected that Wang Mang would refuse to submit!
After a moment, the Seventh Princess pointed her finger exasperatedly at Wang Mang.
“You… 1 will remember you!”
After saying that, the Seventh Princess angrily stomped off.
Seeing this scene, the soldiers started to worry, as Wang Mang had offended the Seventh Princess!
Sure, in the past, other Moon Elders had always rejected the Seventh Princess’ request. However, they had done so tactfully and servilely.
None of them had expected Wang Mang to be so straightforward and unyielding. Were they going to ger a new Moon Elder again?
Wang Mang naturally noticed their expressions, but he remained unfazed. The choice had already been made, so now he just had to make the best of it.
Anything was better than ending up dead.
Moreover, Wang Mang did not believe that the Jade Emperor could nor defeat Sun Wukong. Sure, that had been the case in the TV drama series, but a drama series was different from reality. After all, Sun Wukong was one of the protagonist characters.
If the Jade Emperor couldn’t even defeat Sun Wukong, what kind of Jade Emperor was he? Moreover, he knew rhe Jade Emperor’s background from the novels in his previous life, and that the Jade Emperor had very likely been Dao Ancestor Hongjun’s gatekeeper at some point.
Even if someone was the Dao Ancestor’s dog, that dog would be more powerful than most of the experts in this world.
Thus, Wang Mang ignored the strange expressions on their faces.
Wang Mang even suspected that the previous Moon Elder had lost his position because of the Seventh Princess.
Over the next two days, Wang Mang familiarized himself with the Moon Elder Palace and the duties that the Moon Elder had to perform, which was basically to matchmake mortals in the mortal world.
Of course, he was not in charge of the immortals’ marriages, though he did have the ability to do so. Despite this, he did not dare to mess around.
This was especially true for powerful immortals. Once Wang Mang secretly matchmade them, they would immediately notice and deduce the source.
Therefore, although the Moon Elder’s power was pretty far-reaching, he could not use it to its full potential.
At this moment, in the pool of love, Wang Mang suddenly saw two thick red threads tightly bound together.
As for the two red strings that Wang Mang saw, one of them belonged to rhe Seventh Princess!
On the Seventh Princess’ red string, there was a golden light, and on the other end was an ordinary red string.
There were two names on the connected red strings…
The Seventh Princess of the Heavenly Court!
Mortal Dong Yong!
F*ck!
What was going on?
He had not done this, so how did their red strings connect?
At this moment, Wang Mang was completely dumbfounded. He hurriedly picked up rhe scissors, wanting to cut the Seventh Princess’ red string.
However, what left Wang Mang dumbfounded was that no matter how hard he tried to cut it, it was useless.
After cutting it off, after a while, the independent strings tightly linked themselves together again.
“F*ck! What the hell is going on?”
“Could it be that the previous Moon Elder did this before he lost his position?”
Wang Mang’s expression darkened. This was the most likely possibility.
After all, he had just started working. It was absolutely impossible for him to have been the one who had done this.
It was nor only that. Wang Mang had also discovered another two red strings tightly intertwined.
After seeing the names, Wang Mang was even more dumbfounded.
Zixia Fairy and Sun Wukong!
Wang Mang began to rapidly search through rhe countless red strings. What made him even more frustrated was that there really were quite a few of them!
There were five of them!
One of them had three strings and three names: Marshal Tian Tianpeng, Fairy Chang e of the Heavenly Court, Gao Cuilan of the Mortal World.
There were also two names on the second pair of strings: The Third Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Court and Liu Liao Chang in rhe Mortal World!
There were two names on the third pair of strings: Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian of the Mortal World!
The fourth one was the demon race’s little green snake and the Heavenly Court’s Wen Quxing!
Good fellow! It was a mess! A complete mess!
To be honest, when he saw this, Wang Mang knew that he would not be able to hold his position for long. In the TV drama series, the little green snake of rhe demon race did not end up with Wen Quxing!
Who was Wen Quxing?
Wen Quxing was Xu Xian’s son.
This was almost equivalent to Bai Suzhen’s son (Wen Quxing) falling in love with his sister-in-law!
However, when Wang Mang saw the fifth pair of strings, he was completely dumbfounded.
This was because there were two names written on them, and one of them was his!
As for rhe other name…
