I Swear I Don't Have A Python In My Pool

231 Let’s Have A Fair Fight

Wang Mang was stunned.

He was just bragging!

Why did the system take it so seriously?

Why did he need to prove his strength?

There were options to defeat a demon king and great demon king, but stooping so low would be a blow to his own pride.

However, could he really defeat a demon emperor?

The weakest demon emperor he knew was the Dog Emperor, and even it had surpassed the 6,000-year mark by quite a bit. As for the fourth mission option, that was completely out of the question.

He did not even know ten demon emperors!

In the end, he muttered in his heart, “System, I choose Mission 3!”

What was life without a challenge, right?

[Ding! The host has successfully selected a mission option. Please complete the mission as soon as possible to obtain the reward!]

After hearing the system’s confirmation, Wang Mang exited the cave.

Night had fallen, the breeze was a little cold, and a full moon hung high in the sky.

Ever since the sun and moon had appeared together in the sky, the weather on Earth had become unpredictable, fluctuating between hot and cold, and snow, wind and rain would sweep the land without the slightest warning. Sometimes, it was like experiencing all four seasons within a single day.

Wang Mang began his journey at night. He wanted to find a suitable demon emperor to complete the mission; ideally one who had just become a demon emperor.

That was the only way he would stand a chance. Thus, he had to begin a new search, as none of the demon emperors he was aware of fit the criteria.

Wang Mang had originally wanted to search for the demon emperors in the Yangtze River and Yellow River to see if they were suitable.

However, the problem was that the Yangtze River was too long, stretching through dozens of provinces.

Similarly, the Yellow River was not much better, as it ran through nine provinces, and its basin area was more than 700,000 square kilometers in size.

Therefore, he had no choice but to pick a different target and search elsewhere.

Just like that, he traveled around for five days, searching and asking around.

He passed through several provinces, but was unable to find a suitable target. He did stumble upon news of demon emperors. However, these ones were veteran demon emperors who were much stronger.

‘Do I have to cross the sea or ocean to find a suitable demon emperor?’ Wang Mang thought helplessly.

However, at this moment, Wang Mang suddenly heard the sound of muffled thunder in the distance.

He subconsciously looked up, and saw that dark clouds were gathering, and that the sky had become as black as ink.

Wang Mang’s eyes lit up.

Was this not the phenomenon that would take place when someone was transcending a tribulation?

Could it be that a demon emperor was undergoing a tribulation here?

Excited and hopeful, Wang Mang rushed toward the source of the muffled thunder.

Two hours later, Wang Mang reached his destination, which was a place shrouded in dark clouds and violent winds.

Ahead of him, he could see a huge, beautiful white fox with snow-white fur and three tails.

Wang Mang could also sense that it was extremely threatening, much more than Liu Xiu. He quietly used his information detection skill.

[Target: Three-tailed White Spirit Fox]

[Cultivation: 6,000 years]

[Level: Demon Emperor (undergoing tribulation)]

[Divine Powers: ???]

[Luck: 68]

[Danger Level: Extremely high]

[Achievement: Ranked 96th on the global ranking list of experts.]

…

Jackpot!

He had finally found a suitable target. Furthermore, it was currently undergoing tribulation, so it would not be able to display its full strength.

Was this a perk of his increased luck value?

After all, this was simply too much of a coincidence!

While he was observing the fox, the lightning tribulation began, and he watched as the fox turned into a miserable mess as it was struck by the tribulation lightning repeatedly.

Holy sh*t!

This lightning tribulation was too terrifying!

Fortunately, he did not need to transcend this tribulation.

The originally white fox was charred black by lightning, and was obviously severely injured. It seemed that even though it was easier for terrestrial demon kings to become demon emperors, it was not a walk in the park either.

The whole process looked torturous.

Wang Mang waited for two hours before the tribulation finally ended. At the end of it all, the fox was lying in a pool of blood, barely breathing.

Seeing this, Wang Mang was overjoyed.

This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

He immediately jumped out and transformed into his massive form. He shouted proudly and shamelessly, “Fox Demon Emperor! I want to challenge you!”

“Come on! Let’s have a fair fight!”
