Chapter 642: Objection!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
F*ck!
As expected… The Fifth Elder had not forgotten about the matter back then.
Even though Wang Mang looked calm on the surface, he was actually panicking. At the same time, Wang Mang was secretly on guard, ready to flee at any moment.
Of course, the decision on whether to run or not depended on Zhu Long’s actions. However, he still had to say something in order to clarify the situation.
Thinking this, Wang Mang calmly said, “Your descendant wanted to kill me. I wasn’t about to just stand there and let him kill me, you know.”
“If it wasn’t for your descendant’s arrogance in asking me to join the dragon clan as a subordinate servant, I wouldn’t have killed him.”
“I think you know better than me what exactly transpired.”
Upon hearing Wang Mang’s words, the expressions of the other nine elders, who had been looking at Wang Mang unkindly, eased.
Of course, there were still a few who were still eyeing Wang Mang with hostility.
As for the Fifth Elder, his eyes were filled with killing intent as he looked at Wang Mang. He wanted to say something, but could not find a way to refute those words.
After all, things were indeed as Wang Mang had said. Furthermore, any Tier 5 expert could deduce it with just a little effort.
After being silent for a long time, the Fifth said with a cold expression,
“Is this the reason you killed my descendant?”
“Wasn’t he right?”
“You lowly snake, it is your great honor to join the dragon clan, even if it means becoming a subordinate servant.”
Wang Mang’s heart sank, and his killing intent surged. This fellow seemed hell-bent on offending him!
If there was a chance, Wang Mang would certainly not mind killing him. He would send him on his way to meet his descendant!
At this moment, Zhu Long finished deducing what had happened. There was no way he was rejecting Wang Mang because of such a trivial matter.
Moreover, a dead dragon was not as important as a Tier 5 expert to the dragon race.
Therefore, Zhulong finally opened his mouth and said, “Alright, stop arguing and sit down!”
Hearing this, the Fifth Elder could only suppress the anger in his heart and sit down. Similarly, the other elders also sat down.
“I called you here to tell you that Wang Mang will officially join our dragon Ccan.”
After saying this, Zhu Long glanced indifferently at the elders present.
Hearing this, the elders of the dragon clan frowned one after another.
However, before any of them could speak, Zhu Long continued, “Wang Mang will be the eleventh elder of our dragon clan.”
What?
The Fifth Elder immediately shouted, “Dragon Emperor, 1 object!”
“He’s just a lowly snake. Even if he joins the dragon clan, what qualifications does he have to become an elder of the dragon clan?”
At this moment, the seventh and tenth elders also nodded and said with a gloomy face, “We agree. This newcomer is merely a member of the snake race!” “Since ancient times, dragons have not lived with snakes. There isn’t even a single trace of the dragon bloodline within him.”
“That’s right! Dragon Emperor, please reconsider. If you let him become an elder, wouldn’t our dragon clan become a joke?”
Wang Mang could tell from a glance that these two elders were in cahoots with the Fifth Elder.
Not only that, these elders were not weak.
The Fifth Elder had reached the seventh level of the Zenith Heaven realm.
The Seventh Elder was a fifth-level Zenith Heaven realm expert, while the Tenth Elder was a fourth-level Zenith Heaven realm expert.
The first, second, and third elders had surpassed the Zenith Heaven realm and had reached the Saint Emperor realm, while the Fourth Elder was a ninth-level Zenith Heaven realm expert.
The Sixth Elder and Eighth Elder were both fifth-level Zenith Heaven realm experts, while the Ninth Elder was similar to the Tenth Elder; a fourth-level Zenith Heaven realm expert.
This made Wang Mang truly realize how powerful the dragon clan was. Perhaps their strength could not be compared to when they were at their peak, but in this world, they were a force to be reckoned with.
At this moment, Zhu Long said, “Also, I’ve decided to allow Wang Mang to enter the Dragon Transformation Pool. And my decision is final. Wang Mang will be the eleventh elder of the dragon clan.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the ten elders present were thrown into an uproar.
This was because they had never expected that Zhu Long would actually go so far to recruit Wang Mang.
This was simply unbelievable and unacceptable!
Wang Mang was an outsider who had not contributed anything to the dragon clan!
If Wang Mang were to be allowed to enter the Dragon Transformation Pool, how could the dragon clan explain this to their clan members?
Now, all of the elders frowned and said, “Dragon Emperor, we object!”
“This doesn’t follow the rules at all!”
The Fifth Elder roared in exasperation, “Dragon Emperor, how could he join the dragon clan and enter the Dragon Transformation Pool?”
“Dragon Emperor, if you really want to act willfully, how should we explain this to the clan members?”
The Fourth Elder nodded slightly and said, “Dragon Emperor, this is against the rules. If we really do this, it will disappoint the clan members.”
“After all, the descendants of the dragon clan have contributed a lot to the dragon clan, yet none of them are qualified to enter the Dragon Transformation Pool.”
“Dragon Emperor, if we let a newcomer enter the Dragon Transformation Pool, how can we explain this?”
At this moment, the second and third elders nodded.
“Dragon Emperor, this is against the rules. He has to prove his worth first. At the very least, he has to show us that he has contributed to our dragon clan, right?”
The First Elder finally spoke with an expressionless face,
“Dragon Emperor, all of the elders have objected. This proposal is invalid!”
Wang Mang’s heart sank at this sight.
At this moment, he finally knew how difficult it was for him to enter the Dragon Transformation Pool. The fact that all of the elders were against him entering the Dragon Transformation Pool was clearly beyond Wang Mang’s expectations.
As such, Wang Mang could not help but worry.
Under such circumstances, would Zhu Long still be able to ensure that he could enter the Dragon Transformation Pool?
