Chapter 2291 Councilor! (1)
The surroundings fell into a momentary silence.
The sudden appearance of the black-haired youth left many people perplexed.
Who was he?
He seemed quite at ease, and those unfamiliar with him might mistake him for one of the long-established prodigies in the Phantom Drift Territorial Domain.
Yet, upon closer inspection, it appeared there was no such figure.
"Kid, who are you?" Pearson from the Red Dragon Universe Pirates stared at w.a.n.g Teng with his emerald green eyes, showing genuine interest.
As a cosmos-stage martial warrior, w.a.n.g Teng remained calm and composed in front of so many powerhouses, displaying no signs of panic. This suggested he was not an ordinary warrior.
"You are… Councilor w.a.n.g Teng?!" From a distance, Hengzang Chuan seemed to have recognized him. His expression changed slightly as he suddenly spoke.
Having seen w.a.n.g Teng"s image, even though it was only a projection left by someone else, anyone who had seen him would likely find it hard to forget.
After all, a handsome young man like him would leave a lasting impression, even on other men.
Returning to the topic, Han Zhu also had good looks, but compared to Councilor w.a.n.g Teng, it seemed like he fell a bit short.
"Councilor?!"
Hengzang Chuan"s words stunned the people around, and then they quickly realized. Their expressions changed as they all turned their gazes to w.a.n.g Teng.
The only person who could be called a councilor was the councilor from the Academy Arbitration a.s.sociation.
These people from the six major factions weren"t unfamiliar with this. They instantly recalled w.a.n.g Teng"s ident.i.ty.
While the prodigies from various factions were not particularly concerned about this young man, upon hearing that w.a.n.g Teng was a councilor of the Academy Arbitration a.s.sociation, their eyes suddenly became solemn.
Whether it was Sh.e.l.ly from the Longlapa Empire, Chi Yi from the Red Dragon Universe Pirates, or Zuo Gu from the White Night Universe Pirates, they all looked at w.a.n.g Teng.
Two figures stepped out of the golden s.p.a.cecraft of the Golden Peak City, dressed in luxurious attire. Surprisingly, it was a pair of fat men, both s.h.i.+ning with a comical golden glow.
The smaller of the two chubby men looked at w.a.n.g Teng with curiosity.
The woman named Bi Chunrou from the Azure Sky Island had a young girl behind her, who also looked at w.a.n.g Teng.
At the same time, even the young man from the Black Skull Universe Pirates furrowed his brow, his gaze falling on w.a.n.g Teng.
To become a councilor of the Academy Arbitration a.s.sociation with the strength of the cosmos stage, he had to be taken seriously.
"He"s that councilor!"
In the distance, Hengzang Mo, Guizang Yan, and the others looked at w.a.n.g Teng with grave expressions.
"Why did he have to come at this time?" Hengzang Mo frowned.
On the other side, w.a.n.g Teng, posing as "Han Zhu," couldn"t help but glance at him. This silly boy, of course, came just to join in the fun.
Tracy, standing behind w.a.n.g Teng, saw the other w.a.n.g Teng in the distance. Her eyes widened with disbelief.
Was he really that councilor?
But he is right in front of me! How come there"s another one over there?
Tracy looked at the w.a.n.g Teng in front of her, then at the one in the distance. Although the two didn"t share the same appearance, she was well aware that the one in front of her originally looked like that. The only difference was the change in appearance.
For a moment, she was puzzled!
"Timing couldn"t be better," Yizang Xinnuo said, his eyes flickering.
"Yes, perfect timing," Yunzang Xiao added. "A councilor from the Academy Arbitration a.s.sociation might pose a threat to the Heishan Royal Clan."
"Can he? This councilor may not be stronger than us. The previous councilors were all taken down by the prodigious warriors from our Five Burial Stars." Shouzang Caiyun shook her head.
"It"s mainly because of his ident.i.ty. It should cause some trouble for the Heishan Royal Clan," Yizang Xinnuo explained.
"It"s even better if the people from the Heishan Royal Clan kill him. It not only saves us trouble but also makes them offend the Stellar Academy. Killing two birds with one stone," Yunzang Xiao casually remarked.
w.a.n.g Teng glanced at him, surprised by his dark side.
"True, let"s pa.s.s this trouble on to the Heishan Royal Clan and let them worry about it," Hengzang Mo sneered.
"However, Councilor w.a.n.g Teng is quite handsome. He"s even more handsome than Brother Han." Shouzang Caiyun admired while looking at w.a.n.g Teng in the distance.
Everyone fell into silence.
In such a situation, Shouzang Caiyun still found the time to appreciate someone"s looks.
w.a.n.g Teng was speechless. He didn"t know whether to be happy or not. Shouzang Caiyun seemed to praise him, yet it felt like she didn"t.
"Another pretty boy!" Guizang Yan coldly snorted.
w.a.n.g Teng glanced at him, wondering why he emphasized the "again." He couldn"t shake off the feeling of being dissed.
"How can that Councilor w.a.n.g Teng compare to Brother Han? Brother Han defeated even the people from the Heishan Royal Clan," Yizang Xinnuo looked at "Han Zhu" and smiled.
"You flatter me! I dare not compare myself to a councilor from the Academy Arbitration a.s.sociation. Seeing him today, the councilor"s charisma is truly extraordinary." w.a.n.g Teng shook his head, expressing his admiration.
"Brother Han, you"re always so modest." Yizang Xinnuo smiled.
w.a.n.g Teng felt that he wasn"t being modest. Regardless of who was stronger, it was still him.
As they were conversing through voice transmission, outsiders had no idea what they were talking about.
Only the five families and w.a.n.g Teng were aware of the Heishan Royal Clan"s issue. The others from the five major forces were oblivious to the ident.i.ty of the other party.
"It seems everyone knows me already, saving me the trouble of introducing myself!" w.a.n.g Teng"s clone, who came down from the Devil Slayer, looked around and laughed.
