Chapter 48: Plan Messed Up

"Isn't that guy the second protagonist?" Wang Chen whispered as he crouched behind a nearby tree, peering at the figure in the distance.

"Has he become the protagonist yet?" Wang Chen asked the system, hoping to learn the second protagonist's status and potentially take advantage of his opportunities.

[No, he didn't gain the protagonist identity yet.] 

"Tsk," Wang Chen clicked his tongue in disappointment, contemplating his next move.

"Now, what should I do?" Wang Chen muttered under his breath, feeling confused about how to handle the situation. If it were any other person, he would have killed all the red sect disciples, including the young man. However, he knew that the young man was soon to become a protagonist, and if he tried to kill him now, he would face the interference of heaven's will, which he was not strong enough to defend against.
