Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor Chapter 1318 Always A Step Ahead

Chapter 1318  Always A Step Ahead

Madam Shun is from the [Suns.h.i.+ne Pavilion] — she's the mistress, controlling all its power. However, despite its poetic name, the pavilion is, in fact, a chain of brothels that target cultivators — including Emperors and Empyreans. All the pavilion's women — and men — cultivate Yin-Yang Dao or a Source Technique about Dual Cultivation.

Cultivators can visit when they need some help with their cultivation. If they pay for the lowest Tier 1 service, they can dual cultivate with a partner of their choice, but only through holding hands. Such service is crucial to cultivators below rank ten as they can use it to break through bottlenecks, but it can only provide some cultivation bonus to Great Emperors and other paths.

Tier 2 services involve physical intercourse, and the effects are even better. It's possible to increase a person's cultivation by a few percent if they have just become Great Emperors. Tier 3 services involved women with their Primordial Yin and Yang intact, making the process even more potent. That's not to mention other benefits like tempering the body and soul.

Tier 4 and 5 services involved people with special physiques, with the difference being that Tier 5 girls also have their Primordial Yin and Yang preserved.

In the cultivation world, there is something called a [Cauldron Physique], a unique physique with excellent dual cultivation properties. Devil Cultivators love this type of physique as it is the best way to strengthen their foundation, and other cultivators love it because it's the best way to break through bottlenecks. Of course, women despise it because this physique primarily exists in women, and the fate of the "cauldron" is always terrible.

The Suns.h.i.+ne Pavilion provided cauldrons but at an exuberant price. All their prices are beyond expensive, but Tier 4 reaches another stratosphere, and that's because the price also involves numeration to ensure the owner of the Cauldron Physique can recuperate. Well, at least, that's their explanation of why the price is so expensive, but people know better. [Cauldrons] have terrible fates because others forcefully plunder their Primordial Yin, injuring their bodies and souls and even destroying their cultivation foundation. However, the Suns.h.i.+ne Pavilion used a harmonious Yin-Yang Duel Cultivation Technique, meaning the Cauldron Physiques benefit the owner instead of harming them. So, everyone with some knowledge knows their so-called price is bulls.h.i.+t.

Unfortunately, many people rushed to utilize their services despite knowing this. Most people's talent cannot take them far after becoming immortal, so after being stuck in one place for millions of yuan epochs, many people will pay the price of an increase of 1% in their cultivation. Even people with talent and resources will suffer from bottlenecks, and sometimes, using the Suns.h.i.+ne Pavilion's services might be cheaper than the alternative methods of their factions.

Emperor Kong has dealt with the Suns.h.i.+ne Pavilion, not because he used their services but because they are also one of the largest spy networks in the world. When men are in their most "relaxed" state, they can easily open their mouths and spill information. Meanwhile, the women who use the pavilion's services are often secretive about it due to societal pressure, making it easier to get information about them. Lastly, the pavilion has a system in which they can offer discounts if someone provides them with valuable information.

With all their branches scattered worldwide, the Suns.h.i.+ne Pavillion is among the best in the information business, so Emperor Kong has dealt with them. However, his problem with Madam Shun is not her business or some kind of contradiction that happened between them. She wanted to open a Yin-Yang School in the Academy.

Her request immediately sent the academy into chaos. Some elders agreed as they know that Yin-Yang Dao is one of the supreme paths of cultivation no matter which form it is practiced. Meanwhile, others vehemently denied this request, believing such a method of practicing Yin-Yang Dao contradicts many of the core ideologies about the Literary Way. They've been arguing for more than 50 million years since Madam Shun made that request, and the only way to end this debate is for the Dean to decide. Emperor Kong has no problem opening the Yin-Yang School. Since his path is to enlighten all sentient beings, he would not exclude anyone. His hesitation is because of the true owner of the Suns.h.i.+ne Pavilion.

'I don't want to deal with that crazy woman,' Emperor Kong sighed, feeling a headache coming. w.a.n.g Wei was a problem, but he was still a reasonable person, but that woman was not. She could attack the academy without any reason; it would be a nightmare if she had an actual reason.

'If I don't make a choice soon, that will be reason enough for her to act against me or the academy.' Emperor Kong once again felt frustrated. He could not beat her, and he might even suffer terribly if he angered her.

"Alright, I'll deal with her."

"Master, what are you going to do?" Lin Fan asked. He knew how complicated the issue of Madam Shun was.

"I'll tell her we can start the Yin-Yang School in the academy's branches as a test trial," Emperor Kong said. "That should satisfy her for now while also preventing that crazy woman from having any direct connection to the main branch."

Emperor Kong sighed as he flew away. He decided to spend a few days with Master Shang to isolate himself from the world. This should soothe his mind. Then, he'll go on a vacation with his wife.

…

w.a.n.g Wei was walking around Origin Seal City with a candy stick in his hand, enjoying himself. He enjoyed the overall feel of this city as the atmosphere perfectly blended a mortal city with a cultivation city — that's how he was about to buy this candy from a stall on the street. Moreover, he didn't know if it was because of his future wife's terrific standards. The food in this place was beyond excellent. Every restaurant he visited in the past few days had its own unique cuisine, techniques, and recipes.

"Hmm?" w.a.n.g Wei stopped as he suddenly sensed something. He looked in the distance, and his vision penetrated endless distance as he saw a bright mirror above the academy's city. "Have you figured it out?" He shook his head. "I'm starting to regret making friends with that little girl, Xu s.h.i.+." w.a.n.g Wei did not mind despite his words since that's how most friends.h.i.+ps in the cultivation world — especially relations.h.i.+ps with people of different factions or lineages. The lineage's benefit must come above everything, including friends.h.i.+p.

"Not a bad move, old man," w.a.n.g Wei commented. "However, this is not enough to stop me." He raised his hand to condense a few karmic threads, mainly Emperor Kong, Lin Fan, Xu s.h.i.+, and the lower dimension Academy. Emperor Kong owed him much more karma than the latter admitted due to everything he did for the academy in the lower dimension.

So, what w.a.n.g Wei plans to do is to force him to repay that karma, or he will suffer a potent and immediate backlash that not only damages his soul but also affects his luck. And what's the best way to repay that karmic debt? Of course, it's from that compensation from Heavenly Dao. w.a.n.g Wei manipulated the threads to do his bidding, ensuring Emperor Kong would not notice anything until he received the compensation. By then, he'll have no opportunity to delay and must pay immediately.

'Heavenly Dao is planning for Transcendent Factions, but there must be a difference between them,' w.a.n.g Wei sneered. He had no personal grudge against Emperor Kong or the academy but must ensure his faction's supremacy in the upcoming era. After all, in this world, more power means more resources, so w.a.n.g Wei — who always knew this — never stopped striving for more power and resources for the sect.

w.a.n.g Wei bit his candy, enjoying the unique sweetness with the ability to improve his mood. If not for his cultivation level, this thing might affect his state of mind, which is truly impressive. This city was truly remarkable. Even the candy maker had some achievements in the Dao of Cooking.

'I'm starting to wonder whether I bragged too much that day,' w.a.n.g Wei thought. With such an impressive palate, could he create a dish that makes her swallow those words back? He sighed, feeling his future was bleak.

w.a.n.g Wei headed toward the next restaurant. However, he did not take a few steps when something landed from the sky before him. He saw a beautiful woman in golden metallic armor from shoulder to toe, looking like a Valkyrie from Earth's myth.

"What can I do for you, young lady?" w.a.n.g Wei asked, already having a prediction.

"I've been ordered to hand you this token and a message: 'You've wasted enough time.'"

w.a.n.g Wei's lips twitched. He knew the suffering that awaited him, so he's been delaying for the past few days, trying to enjoy himself as much as possible. However, it seems this future wife cannot wait to beat him up.

w.a.n.g Wei waved his hand, and the token flew into his palm. The Valkyrie woman did not say anything else and flew away. Meanwhile, w.a.n.g Wei sighed before activating the token, disappearing from the middle of the street.
