Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Chapter 999 Everyone's Thoughts and Reactions (II)

999 Everyone's Thoughts and Reactions (II)

After Yang Guowei returned to his clan, he did not reveal the truth about leaving for the upper dimension. He was unsure about his future, so he did not want to give his clan any false hope. So, he only told them about the mini-Heaven Will Battle and that he would do a secret task for the Heavenly Emperor.

Afterward, he prepared for the battle. During the previous one, he did not even have an opportunity to perform and show the world what he was capable of. He also hopes to change people's opinion of him after associating with these traitors for so long.

Someone had a similar reaction to Yang Guowei???Jingwu Hua. After returning to her clan, she did not say much about the deal. After the issue with the Emperor Bone, she had never truly trusted these people.

So, she used some false excuse while also telling them about the battle. Meanwhile, Jingwu Hua focused on preparing for her ascension; she was finally able to see her father for a long time and even had the chance to help him. So, her performance cannot be as poor as the previous battle.

'I must prove the Dao and become an Eternal.

Only this way can I make Daddy proud and be able to help him,' thought Jingwu Hua with firm eyes before concentrating on her cultivation.

Great Ye Dynasty:

Xiao Songxi had reunited with his family. He saw the white streak in his mother's hair and his sister's thin body. He reassured them by smiling, hugging, and telling them jokes. However, no one saw his hidden trembling body.

That night, according to the Palace Ladies, Xiao Songxi learned that his mother???the Empress Dowager???had the best sleep in a few centuries.

Meanwhile, the Princess did not have to take pills to calm down and forced herself to enter a meditating state and cultivate.

Xiao Songxi walked to his cultivation room. After his disappearance, the Great Ye Dynasty was on the verge of collapsing. They would not have survived if not for the rise of the Heavenly Court and the new peace and order in the world.

Under such a situation, he should have assembled his ministers and dealt with countless problems, but he did not care. After being alone, Xiao Songxo no longer hid his anger as he destroyed everything in the room. Luckily, he activated the arrays to prevent his power or any sound from leaking.

"Baishe Clan, you wait; I promise to eradicate you from this world," he said with gritted teeth. After this incident, he realized these people never treated him as one of their own despite his bloodline being purer than 99% of them.

After his defeat, it did not matter he was once their patriarch; he was useless since he no longer had any benefit to give them.

"What a bunch of poor side people," he sneered.

"But it doesn't matter; after this opportunity, I will make all of you pay."

He closed his eyes and began a retreat; he did not have much time, so it was pointless to waste in mindless anger.

Five Element Balance Palace:

"Are you sure about your decision?" asked Purity One, one of the most powerful Insurgents in the palace. He wore a green Taoist robe, holding a horsetail whisk while caressing his long beard.

"Yes. She has too much influence on my mind, so the quicker she is removed, the more reassured I will feel."

"That's fine."

"I'm sorry I could not help us get the Heavenly Emperor Position," said Zhen Biyu.

"It's okay. Let's just let nature take its course, and eventually, one of us will succeed," replied Purity One.

"Thank you for your trust."

"Go prepare. Ask me if you need anything."

Zhen Biyu entered a retreat to prepare for the upcoming events. Immediately after she left, a few more Taoist priests appeared behind Purity One.

"Are we sure she's trustworthy?" asked someone.

"We have all checked, so there should be no problem."

"Even so."

"Since we chose to trust her, there is no point in hesitating," chimed in Star One. "Plus, if she succeeds, we can return to the Central Continent."

Everybody's eyes lit up. With their seventh Emperor and one that is an Eternal Emperor, they can ignore the pressure of the Taiyi Profound Gate, return to the Central Continent, and fight for the leadership position of Taoism. Their factions have been waiting for that moment for too long.

"I still believe we should be more wary," warned the previous Insurgent.

"Her main personality is very intelligent," added Purity One. "If the news about the upper dimension is true, she should understand better than us the need for a powerful background. So, as long as she does not want to become a loose cultivator in such a politically charged and dangerous environment, there is no need to worry about extra things."

"Is it really good to rely on something like that for her loyalty?"

"Why not? In this world, is there a bond more powerful than one based on sharing benefits?"

Origin Pill Dao Sect:

Ye Lao caressed his temple as he sent all the sect elders away. Ever since the expo, he had never had a moment of peace. Countless Alchemists from his sect and the Alchemy Alliance have complained to him about the new cauldron.

All of them had one problem???fear their status and power would be reduced. He tried to reassure these people that things would not be so extreme since the cauldron could not access their unique pill recipe.

He also told them to adapt to the changing times, switching from production and focusing more on research and development. However, these alchemists wanted only one thing???the destruction or removal of the cauldron.

But what can Ye Lao do about this? Could he walk up to the Heavenly Emperor and demand the latter to do his bidding?

The worst part about this situation was that a few members of his own sect were asking that they terminate their alliance with the Dao Opening Sect because of this event. Ye Lao has never been so angry in his life, wishing he could whip all these people.

Can't these people not see the situation? Anyone associated with the Heavenly Emperor will rise and prosper, and only a terrible fate awaits anyone who stands in his way.

"I'm too old for this," complained Ye Lao. "I should be enjoying my retirement."

He exhaled deeply before looking in one direction; his eyes were filled with sadness, pity, and hope.

He shook his head to concentrate before gathering the information from one of the hundreds of talismans before him.

Ye Lao immediately frowned.

"Another bad news," he muttered. Fu Caiyun was in retreat as he vowed to become the second person in the world to master Immortal Runes and refine an Immortal Pill.

Ye Lao knew the consequences if the latter succeeded: the power he spent so much acquiring would be drastically weakened. In other words, Fu Caiyun will make a comeback.

'With his talent, it's not impossible for him to succeed,' thought Ye Lao, who immediately felt like a hot flame was under his butt. Sadly, his alchemy talent was nowhere near Fu Caiyun, and he was stuck dealing with the sect's political matters.

"If only Cheng'er could..."

He sighed while gazing in the distance for a moment. He focused on his work, wondering how he should act. His first instinct was to intervene in Fu Caiyun's retreat, but he knew this was the worst method.

The latter still had many supporters amongst the Ancestors, and his actions could have severe consequences. Furthermore, Fu Caiyun was most likely using the Dream World for his retreat.

'Should I cut his funding?'

The simulation of Immortal Pils requires a great deal of Dream Coins, and Fu Caiyun alone cannot provide such resources alone. However, after thinking about it, Ye Lao decided this tactic was also out of the question.

Fu Caiyun was still one of the best Quasi Emperor Tier Alchemists in the world, so gathering more Dream Coins with his saved wealth, the support of a few ancestors, and refining pills for others was not a problem.

More importantly, he did not want rumors that another internal strife was happening in the sect, thus ruining their reputation and Qi Luck.

'The best solution is for someone else to refine the pill before Fu Caiyun.'

Only one person in the entire sect fits this description???his disciple, Lou Cheng.

'However, he...'

Ye Lao was lost in his mind for a few seconds.

'I should talk to him.'

He concentrated on his work. Luckily, not all news was terrible. The rise of Hou Shi and material alchemy brought many benefits to their sect, and will continue to do so if they play their cards correctly.

So, he did not hesitate to assign more resources to her, including access to the sect's Emperor Scriptures, secret recipes, hidden trials, and lectures from powerful alchemists.

Once he finished dealing with the sect's affairs, he rushed to his disciple's mountain to see if he could talk some sense into him.
