Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor Chapter 1355: Conversing With The Earth Emperor

Chapter 1355: Conversing With The Earth Emperor

w.a.n.g Wei and Earth Emperor looked at each other, clas.h.i.+ng their aura. They looked like they were about to kill each other. However, both of them seemed to have something else on their mind. w.a.n.g Wei's focus was not on this battle but on the sealed s.p.a.ce.

'These cowards removed the No-Life Array, ' w.a.n.g Wei thought. He figured this was an excellent opportunity to at least kill one of these b.a.s.t.a.r.ds permanently. Still, once they realized they did not have the advantage and were forced to fight him, they removed the array to ensure that the worst outcome in this fight was losing one life.

'I need to focus on my primary objective,' w.a.n.g Wei thought. 'Which is to break that seal. But now that Supreme Unity knows where I am, things will not be so simple.' However, this was w.a.n.g Wei's plan, that did not stop him from giving one of these people a lesson.

"Are you interested in working with me?"

"Pardon me?" w.a.n.g Wei asked; he thought he was having auditory hallucinations.

"There is no need to be surprised," Earth Emperor added. "There are no eternal enemies in the world, only eternal interest. If our interests are aligned, there is no reason not to work together."

w.a.n.g Wei observed him and realized he was telling the truth. "I have to say you've caught my intrigue. How do you want to work together? What's the common interest you're talking about?"

"To destroy the Great Qin Saint Court."

"My first thought is you're courting death," w.a.n.g Wei said, looking at him strangely. "But my second thought is, how will their destruction benefit me?"

"Resources."

"Why are you saying something so stupid?" w.a.n.g Wei said with a frown. "You don't think I lack resources because I've plundered the dragon and Time Eater's territory, do you?"

"How can these people compare to the foundation of such an ancient Overlord?" Earth Emperor argued. "Plus, the Human Emperor has an unknown and secret origin. I'm sure you're interested."

w.a.n.g Wei looked at him without a word. He did not hide the annoyance on his face or the fact that the Earth Emperor was speaking nonsense. His entire body language was as rude as it could be; he made it evident that he was restraining himself by not calling him a moron.

"Of course, this is not the main reason I think you'll agree."

"I want to know what makes you so confident."

"From what I know about you, you're quite protective of your friends and families," Earth Emperor continued, not hiding his smirk. His facial expression indicated he believed w.a.n.g Wei would agree to his request no matter what.

"Who are you talking about?" w.a.n.g Wei asked.

"You don't know?" Earth Emperor asked with a smile. "The Qin Court captured the Demon Suppression Emperor as soon as she ascended."

"No wonder I haven't heard about her," w.a.n.g Wei uttered. When gathering his team, he also planned to gather some of the people from the lower dimension without sufficient background under his command.

"So, what do you think? We can work together," Earth Emperor continued. "I get most of the resources from the court, and in return, I help you save your friend."

"Hmm, if I agree, how will today's battle go?"

"Everything will be fine as long as you leave and don't touch the seal on the Void Illusion Realm,"

w.a.n.g Wei pondered briefly. He had no plan to team up with this idiot. It's written all over his face that he plans to backstab me. Moreover, the latter seems to think it was okay for him to get most of the shares while his remuneration would only be saving the Demon Suppression Emperor.

"What's your plan to destroy the Qin Court?" asked. Although he did not plan to work with that a.s.shole, he pondered the possibility of fake working with him and backstabbing him first.

"I can't tell you that since we don't trust each other. If you agree, we can sign a contract." "Tell me a general idea so I can be more confident."

"I won't say anything until the contract is signed," Earth Emperor replied stubbornly.

"Alright, show me the prepared contract."

Earth Emperor hesitated briefly before taking out a parchment and writing a detailed control with over 10 million words. w.a.n.g Wei received and read it, but a minute later, he burned the thing while sneering:

"It's obvious you don't have a plan and want me to come up with one." The contract contained a loophole that insinuated that he would oversee most of this plan.

"I'm telling you, I have a plan I've been working on for countless yuan epochs," Earth Emperor reiterated.

"Just because you have a plan doesn't mean it's a good one," w.a.n.g Wei reb.u.t.ted. "Anyway, I won't work with someone like you." He decided it was not worth the risk and complication to use this approach to kill this b.a.s.t.a.r.d. He already had a plan, and he only needed to put it into motion, and he believed this guy would fall for it.

"It seems the rumors of you being kind, benevolent, and generous to your friends are lies," Earth Emperor said with a cold face.

"No, they're true, but you seem to overlook something - the Demon Suppression Emperor is an acquaintance at best," w.a.n.g Wei replied. "I've saved her and her people, so she already owes me karma. I don't need to go to extreme lengths to save her. Plus, I know for a fact she'll be alive until the Human Emperor returns from Limbo. I have plenty of time."

It's not hard to guess why the Qin Court captured her. The Demon Suppression Emperors held both minor Human Emperor and Heavenly Emperor Positions, and Ying Zheng would do anything to get his hands on them.

"Meanwhile, the same cannot be said for you," w.a.n.g Wei continued. "The Human Emperor might still keep her alive once he returns, trying to find a more peaceful way to take her position to prevent complications. But you're a useless p.a.w.n who has usurped power. He'll definitely kill you as soon as he's capable."

"I'm no one's p.a.w.n," Earth Emperor said with gritted teeth.

"What's the point of being agitated now after wasting such an opportunity?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Am I wrong?" w.a.n.g Wei asked. "Under normal circ.u.mstances, with your intelligence and capabilities, you would never have a chance to escape the Human Emperor's grasp. However, this turn of this era gave you a chance. With 1/9 of the world's resources and luck, you can bypa.s.s the limitation of your poor talent and cultivate to the peak of the Paragon Realm. Although it would be impossible for you to become a Primal under normal circ.u.mstances, you could have done it if you were ruthless enough.

"All you needed to do was risk your life to pa.s.s the unorthodox Outlaw Trial for Samsara Dao, and your future would have been bright."

Earth Emperor could not pa.s.s the test based on karma, but the upper dimension offered an Outlaw Trial that was just a mighty Heavenly Tribulation. He could have pa.s.sed if the Earth Emperor had been ruthless and willing to use most of his resources and luck.

"After gaining control of Samsara Dao, with 1/9 destiny of the world, you could get a job as a Yama King in the Underworld and use this opportunity to become a Primal. The Underworld is more than enough to protect you from the Human Emperor, and he would probably have given up on you as a p.a.w.n since it would cost him too much to retrieve you.

"But if you were bolder and wiser, the Eternal Ascension World's one-ninth luck was probably enough to get you the status as [Earth Emperor] if you prove yourself. Then, all you had to do was take advantage of the Human Emperor's absence to destroy the Qin Saint Court and ruin

his foundation.

"If you plan well enough, you might even kill him and get his Human Emperor Position. After that, well, your future will be infinite."

The Earth Emperor was quiet. Everything w.a.n.g Wei said sounded fine and dandy, but it did

not meet reality. He was not like the others who let power get to him — at least, he believed so. His cultivation was so low because someone was always watching him, not wanting him to get more powerful. Time Eater chose them because they were weak and had little talent, so how did he let them become as powerful as him?

Additionally, how hard was the unorthodox Outlaw Trial? Many believe it's more challenging than the Paragon Tribulation - especially for people who want to change their Dao so late in their journey. How could he risk everything just for another Dao?

'In the end, it's as he said I was not bold or ruthless enough,' Earth Emperor sighed. He looked at w.a.n.g Wei, releasing a terrifying killing intent. 'The current world situation is strange and dangerous, and I need the council of a wise minister to help me through it. If I can get his soul, I can refine it into a Wisdom Artifact. There is no better rea.s.surance as a monarch, or even in my cultivation journey than to have a Dao Overlord under my control feeding me ideas and plans.'
