A green flame swept out, and a figure appeared next to the queen.
The young girl below, upon seeing this figure appear, showed a delighted expression on her pretty face and was on the verge of shouting out.
But she realized she didnât know the personâs name.
She couldnât possibly call him âdaddyâ, right?
That would be embarrassing!
The snakemen queen squinted slightly when she saw Wang Tengâs silhouette. There was a hint of surprise in her eyes.
The other snakemen were also surprised but as they saw their queen being rescued, they breathed a sigh of relief.
âItâs you!â
Landon was stunned and speechless, his eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at the person who had just appeared.
He couldnât have imagined that he would encounter the one person he least wanted to see in this place.
He desperately wished this person was an imposter, but the unique green flame made him all too certain that the person before him was indeed the one he least wanted to see.
Divine flame!
Only a divine flame could destroy his Ash Flame easily.
Bastard!
Why was this fellow here?
Landon felt like he was about to have a breakdown. His scalp tingled and his head was on the verge of exploding.
No one could understand his current state of mind.
What the f**k!
âAre you surprised? Are you shocked?â Wang Teng looked at him with a smile and asked.
Landon: âŚ
Pleasantly surprised? More like surprised my foot!
Landon wanted to punch that smiling face when he saw it. He wanted to smash that face that he despised so much.
But he couldnât do it. He just couldnât.
This was infuriating!
âBrother Wang⌠Wang, why are you here?â Lan Deng forced a smile with a twitch at the corner of his mouth.
He felt like he could salvage the situation. Although Wang Teng had intervened suddenly, it didnât necessarily mean he was taking the snakemenâs side.
Maybe he just thought the queen was attractive and wanted to play the hero?
âI just happened to be passing by,â Wang Teng said with a grin.
âWell, what a coincidence!â Landon replied with a stiff smile.
âOur fate runs pretty deep, donât you think?â Wang Teng said with a meaningful look.
Landon: âŚ
What kind of fate is this? It feels more like a cursed fate.
(*^â˝^*)
Little Qingâer wanted to laugh. The atmosphere was so serious, but that guy had managed to make it both funny and awkward.
âBy the way, Brother Landon, what are you doing here?â Wang Teng asked, pretending to be curious.
âIâm not doing anything; I was just passing by,â Landon replied with a straight face.
âArenât you here to find the Azure Sea Pearl?â Wang Teng cut through his lie, grinning.
Landon: âŚ
He knew, yet he still asked!
This jerk was indeed quite devious.
At this point, he was well aware that Wang Teng had likely been in the hall the entire time and had overheard his conversation with the snakemen queen.
But Wang Teng insisted on pretending he had just happened to pass by, which was incredibly infuriating.
What drove him to the brink of madness was that he almost believed it.
âBrother Wang, since you already know, why bother asking as if you didnât?â Landon took a deep breath, wiping the smile off his face, and asked in a calm tone.
âJust wanted to confirm,â Wang Teng said with a grin.
Landon found that every time he spoke with this guy, he couldnât help but feel a surge of anger for no apparent reason. Taking another deep breath, he furrowed his brow and asked, âWhat do you want?â
âBrother Landon, can you tell me what purpose the Azure Sea Pearl has?â Wang Teng asked.
âI canât tell you,â Landon replied coldly.
âThis isnât right. Given our relationship, itâs heartbreaking that you wonât tell me,â Wang Teng said, appearing genuinely saddened.
Landon felt the corners of his lips twitching.
What kind of relationship did they have?
It was more like a blood feud.
The Parkers family had been at odds with this guy for a long time, and as a member of the Parkers family, Wang Teng was unlikely to let him go.
However, for now, they hadnât completely torn each other apart.
No!
It ought to be said that this guy was exceptionally good at putting on an act. He always had the appearance of harmlessness, yet no one realized if he would strike ruthlessly at any moment.
Even he felt pressurized when he was facing Wang Teng.
It was the pressure of encountering a formidable opponent.
His harmless facade seemed to pale in comparison to Wang Teng.
He had to admit that his acting wasnât as good as Wang Tengâs.
âHow about we work together to obtain the Azure Sea Pearl first, and then discuss the rest later?â Landon quickly changed the topic.
Little Qingâerâs expression tensed up.
Was he also here for the Azure Sea Pearl?
The other snakemen, who were unaware of Wang Tengâs identity, thought of him as another extraterrestrial human with hidden intentions, and they watched him like hawks.
Even though he had just saved the queen, perhaps it was just a case of one dog biting another. No one realized if this individual was an enemy or a friend.
They were extremely vigilant against the extraterrestrial humans.
On the other hand, the queen remained calm, giving a subtle signal to the other snakemen to wait and see how the situation unfolded.
âThat idea⌠is not a good one,â Wang Teng shook his head.
Landon remained expressionless, knowing that Wang Teng wouldnât easily agree.
âI donât even know the aim of the Azure Sea Pearl, so why would I take it?â Wang Teng asked.
âI can only tell you that the Azure Sea Pearl is of great importance,â Landon replied.
âWho knows if youâre trying to deceive me and use me as a tool,â Wang Teng uttered with a nonchalant smile.
âIn that case, please step aside. Iâm taking the queen with me. Brother Wang, you shouldnât be interested in the queen, right? Iâve heard some people have a thing for this type, could you be one of them?â Landon gazed deeply at Wang Teng and suddenly smiled.
