Chapter 388 - 388 TWO DECADES AGO AND TODAY

388 TWO DECADES AGO AND TODAY

Shao Yaoting still remembered the Immortal Elder. Of course, he would always remember the man who humiliated him years ago. Perhaps the Immortal Elder failed to kill him years ago, but the Elder managed to destroy his Power Crystal, and in his eyes, losing his Power Crystal was more humiliating than instant death.

Therefore, it was impossible for him to forget that embarrassing moment even if more than three hundred full moons occurred since that day.

He was younger back then, but he already liked to make trouble at Dong Lang. One day he happened to meet the Immortal Elder when he was causing trouble in a place quite far from the Rongyao Imperial Palace. It was so unexpected as the Immortal Elder usually only stayed within the Rongyao Imperial Palace, but he still went against that man.

That man was called an Elder, but his appearance was anything but old. On the contrary, he was no different from a normal young werewolf from the White Werewolf Clan. His long hair was white, and he was also wearing white clothes. Perhaps the only difference between him and a normal white werewolf was his sparkling aura. For some unknown reason, the Immortal Elder looked like he was glowing from head to toe, and that was why it was so easy to tell him apart from an ordinary werewolf.

At that time, Shao Yaoting also knew that the Immortal Elder had lived in the empire for hundreds of years without aging. The Elder had no wife or children, and his role was to maintain peace within the empire.

During the Immortal Elder’s lifetime, Dong Lang had several Emperors sitting on the throne from time to time, but it could be said that the Immortal Elder was the real ruler of Dong Lang. Even Emperors were willing to submit to the Immortal Elder, and that was enough to prove that the Immortal Elder indeed held the highest throne in Dong Lang.

The Immortal Elder would not age, and he wouldn’t fall ill either, and that was why it was so difficult to defeat him. He was also strong and intelligent, and that was probably the reason behind Shao Yaoting’s humiliating defeat all those years ago.

Granted, Shao Yaoting was able to escape death after he managed to run away at that time, but that didn’t mean he didn’t need to endure humiliation. He was seriously injured back then, and even his Power Crystal was destroyed by the Elder.

Thankfully, he managed to survive, and when most of his wounds had healed, he began plotting his revenge. And the first thing he wrote about his revenge plan was to kill the Immortal Elder.

.....

It was true that the Immortal Elder wouldn’t age nor would he fall sick, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t be killed. He happened to know someone good with medicine and poison, and it was the leader of the fish demon, Yu Chao. Yu Chao was also the one who helped him heal the wounds on his body, and the demon was also willing to help him take revenge. To pay for the demon’s service, he only needed to guarantee that the demons in the demon realm would be able to live freely without interference from both humans and werewolves in the future.

It was an easy condition for Shao Yaoting, and that was why the two of them made a deal, and in the end, the poison concocted by Yu Chao even succeeded in killing the Immortal Elder.

Without the Immortal Elder, Dong Lang lost its stability, and the people only relied on their Emperor. Thus, Shao Yaoting became more and more greedy, and he even wanted to take over the throne for real. That was why he kept plotting evil with the demon’s help, and today could be said to be the culmination of his hard work over the years.

He thought everything would go smoothly as he had planned. He had Bai Guowei’s Power Crystal on his forehead now, and that meant he also had Bai Guowei’s power in his body now. He was no longer a weak werewolf, on the contrary, he was now the strongest werewolf in Dong Lang.

That was why he was so confident about his plan. Even if he predicted that a few ants would come to interfere with his plans, he was certain that none of them could really spoil his plans, but he had to change his mind today when someone unexpected suddenly appeared before his eyes.

Everyone could see that Bai Chen was standing in front of him, but Shao Yaoting was still familiar with the aura emanating from Bai Chen’s body. Hence, he knew that it was not just an ant standing before him, but it was the strongest werewolf that had humiliated him all those years ago.

More than two decades had passed since the last time Shao Yaoting met the Immortal Elder, and he also didn’t know why the Elder had managed to come out of his grave and was even able to use Bai Chen’s body at this time. Thus, he remained vigilant when facing that white-robed figure.

“I didn’t mean to kill you years ago, My Lord. I did that only because you destroyed my Power Crystal back then. You don’t have hard feelings toward me just because of the past incident, do you? You should understand that we are now even, My Lord. You destroyed my Power Crystal once, and I killed you once. That’s why we must forget what happened in the past,” Shao Yaoting was still in his white wolf form, and he was trying to negotiate with the majestic figure in front of him.

Whether it was two decades ago or today, Shao Yaoting could feel how his strength was inferior compared to the Immortal Elder even after he took over Bai Guowei’s Power Crystal. Thus, he could only pretend as if he was willing to bow before the Elder.

However, it didn’t seem like the Elder cared about what he had just said as he replied, “You should know that today was made from the past, Shao Yaoting. I am what I am today because of you, so how can you say we should forget the past? Do you think I’m stupid, Shao Yaoting?”
