Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 1703

Chapter 1703: Can’t Escape

With a thought, Old Man Tianji — who had spent countless generations as the Myriad Emperor World’s Heavenly Dao — suddenly heard a voice deep in his mind telling him to find a successor before ascending. He immediately understood he had no choice, so he calmly accepted his fate.

"It’s done," Maitreya stated.

Qiyuan nodded. "You should do something about the Chaos Demon Gods before you leave."

"I’ll take care of it," Maitreya nodded. The biggest issue plaguing this world used to be the Infinite Divine Court, but after crippling them, the spot switched to the Chaos Demon Gods. If Maitreya doesn’t do anything, they will definitely cause major chaos in her absence.

"I —" Qiyuan suddenly looked in the direction of the sect. He was not the only one. Maitreya sensed something and also gazed in that direction.

Dao Opening Sect:

As soon as Wang Wei passed out, Qiyuan sent a clone to check on his situation. He did not hesitate to spend their merit reserve to buy a healing pill for himself, but before he could do that, a secret transmission from Li Ming stopped. Instead, Qiyuan checked on the sect’s situation and dealt with the aftermath of all this trouble. However, midway through his work, Qiyuan suddenly sensed something and teleported into Wang Wei’s recuperating room.

"Lord Cardinal," Qiyuan bowed politely. However, despite his actions, Li Ming and he remained on the highest alert, ready to attack at any moment. Luckily for them, Maitreya suddenly appeared in the room, drastically reducing the tension.

"Lord Cardina, what can I do for you?"

"You can stop faking it," Time Cardinal said, his gaze not moving an inch from Wang Wei’s soul. "No matter what you do, Grand Dao will not allow you to not participate in this expedition." Unfortunately for him, Wang Wei’s skin was thick, and he did not move an inch.

Time Cardinal shook his head. "On account of your achievement of thwarting the Infinite Divine Court’s plot of infiltrating the world, Grand Dao has rewarded you with 10 purple cloud merits. This should be enough for you to buy the best Non-Saint healing pill."

Wang Wei still did not move, but at this point, everybody understood it was pointless for him to try to get out of this conscription. So, Qiyuan stepped up to receive the reward on his behalf. "Thank you, lord, for the reward. We will heal him in time for the expedition."

The Cardinal nodded before giving Qiyuan a knowing glance. "Don’t forget the karma you owe me."

"I won’t," Qiyuan sighed with a wry smile. When he made the deal, he did not fathom what kind of being he was dealing with. But now that he truly understands, he regrets it a little. In the cultivation world, karma is the scariest thing to owe somebody.

"Lord, while you’re here, could I ask you for a favor?" Maitreya asked.

"What is it?" Time Cardinal asked with a frown.

"Could you conscript these Chaos Demon Gods for the expedition?" Maitreya suddenly thought of using higher power to find these people and deal with them.

"No," Time Cardinal directly refused.

"Why not? They are excellent help."

"If Grand Dao wished for them to participate, they would have been conscripted."

’In other words, she has other plans for them,’ Maitreya thought. It was obvious what these creatures’ purpose was: to use their luck and destiny to complete the Eternal Ascension World’s transformation as the Destiny Center World. Unfortunately, the price of such a move is chaos and death at the hands of these creatures.

"I understand," Maitreya nodded. She has no choice now but to use her own method, which is probably way less effective than if a Tribunal Saint did it.

"I’ll see you during the expedition," the Time Cardinal uttered before disappearing.

"What kind of fuck up world we live in that a dying man can’t escape military service," Wang Wei’s soul complained. "Especially when your own people were partly responsible for your injury."

"Grand Dao seems a little too direct in her approach to deal with you," Qiyuan commented. This time around, Wang Wei only had two choices: participate or exile, and Grand Dao seems unrelenting.

"It was already on my shit list, and now, it just aggravated our relationship," Wang Wei sneered. He’s been waiting patiently for all his life until the day he’s strong enough to avenge himself against Grand Dao. And every once in a while, she gives him more ammunition for his hatred.

"Then, there is that Infinite Divine Court. Do they think they can plot against me without paying a price?"
