Novel Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor Chapter 373

Wang Wei had no choice but, to tell the truth. According to the Flame Emperor’s seal, once he left, Lou Cheng will be able to gain access to the [Ten Thousand Flame Art].

After hearing this Ye Lao said: Let me see.

He then used his Divine Sense to check inside Lou Cheng’s Sea of Consciousness. The Niwan Palace is a very fragile and important part of a cultivator’s journey.

So normally they would never allow anyone to randomly check it. However as master and disciple socially and culturally their relationship is better than father and sons.

As such although Wang Wei was very uncomfortable with Ye Lao’s request he had to accept it since he was currently playing as Lou Cheng. Anyway it was not his Sea of Consciousness that was being scanned.

So he immediately adjusted his mood and hid the Infatuation Flower deep inside his soul.

Meanwhile Ye Lao did not notice the strange mood change of his disciple. After checking the latter he discovered a book with a powerful seal inside; the seal was similar to many bans that were placed on Emperor Scriptures to prevent them from being leaked.

He tried to discover the conditions necessary to release such a ban unfortunately he was only a little Saint so he was powerless.

Then a deep frown appeared on his face. The main reason he wanted his disciple to pass this trial and acquire this scripture was to use it as a bargaining chip to gain access to the [Origin Pill Flame Scripture].

Although the [Ten Thousand Flame Art] might be powerful but Ye Lao–who knew some secrets as a sect master–did not think that it was as good as the [Origin Pill Flame Scripture].

And even it was he would still want his disciple to cultivate the former. After all it is the orthodox inheritance of their sect. These old and conservative Supreme Elders would not complain because of this.

One of the reasons that Fu Caiyun is so heavily supported in the sect is because he is the only person that succeeded in cultivating this scripture. Even Ye Lao failed during his generation.

So as long as one of his disciples managed to do the same thing he can drastically decrease Fu Caiyun’s influence. Unfortunately Ye Lao could see that things would not go as easily as he imagined.

So after complimenting Lou Cheng for passing the trial and giving him a few words of reassurance Ye Lao quickly returned to the sect. On their way back they also suffered a few assassinations attack.

However the sect master seemed to be prepared and ensured that his disciple was not the wiser. Of course with Wang Wei’s senses he could still feel some of the battles that occurred. He just pretended that he did know anything.

After returning to the Origin Pill Dao Sect back to his cave Wang Wei began to analyze the changes that occurred to Lou Cheng while waiting for news from his cheap master.

He realized that some changes had occurred in Lou Cheng’s bloodline which radically increase not only his talent for cultivation but also for Alchemy.

During the process of refining pills Wang Wei now did not have to use his understanding and senses as Lou Cheng’s talent was more than enough. This was somewhat of good news for Wang Wei as it reduced the chances of him being discovered.

Additionally once he leaves this body Lou Cheng can more easily inherit all the abilities and status that Wang Wei created for him. However at the same time he was also worried.

His intuition told him that Lou Cheng’s inheriting this scripture has him falling into the Flame Emperor’s calculation. And in the end he might end up very miserable.

Truth be told Wang Wei guessed that even if he fell into some sort of calculation. If you think about it there is no way that a person like Lou Cheng could pass the Inheritance Trial without his help.

After thinking about it he felt that he was right. So he thoroughly checked Lou Cheng’s body and his but did not find anything. So he became a little worried since he could not figure out what the Flame Emperor wanted to do.

In the end he calmed down as he realized that he was not Lou Cheng; he is still the Sacred Son of the most powerful sect in the world. It was not that easy to scheme against him–even for a Great Emperor.

And if all fails he still has a mysterious wife that he cannot fathom how powerful she is. Additionally as long as he becomes a Great Emperor he will not care about the Flame Emperor.

So no matter what the one who will suffer is probably Lou Cheng.

After figuring this out he was relieved and just waited for news from his cheap master. Right now he was so close to achieving his goal. Although he was excited he still managed to properly control his emotions.

A few days later Wang Wei was called into his master’s cave. As soon as he entered he saw that the old man had a haggard look on his face; tiredness oozed out of his body.

Wang Wei even smelled a faint odor of alcohol. Although Ye Lao tried to remove the scent as an alchemist his sense of smell was better than most dog demons.

Master is everything alright?

Little fifth do you think that your master is useless?

Wang Wei guessed that something happened the moment he saw the state of this old man. Most likely he failed in his mission. But he did not expect him to be in such a state.

Master what happened?

I tried to get you the [Origin Pill Flame Scripture] but Fu Caiyun and many of the Elders and even Supreme Elders rejected my proposal. Even when I said that you have acquired the [Ten Thousand Flame Art] they did not believe me.

No they insisted on checking your Sea of Consciousness to ensure that I was not lying. How could I not see the malicious nature in their words? If I let that happen Heaven knows what would happen to you in the process.

Ye Lao looked at his hand and sighed deeply full of melancholy.

I knew that Fu Caiyin controlled a lot of the upper echelons of the sect but I did not expect it to be so bad. Today when I saw so many people siding with him I felt useless broken and unworthy.

As a sect master I have so little power in my own sect. The worse thing is that the situation would have been even worse if not for you recently becoming a Saint Alchemist.

After saying this Ye Lao seemed to have aged by a lot; a depressed aura emanated from his body.

Master you’re not useless.

He laughed sarcastically at himself:

As a master I am forced to rely on my apprentice to sustain the most basic level of face. If I’m not useless then what am I?

Wang Wei was momentarily quiet as he sighed internally to himself. In the cultivating world everyone has difficulties that they have to go through–no matter the strength and status.

Look at Ye Lao to the outside world he is the sect master of a powerful Emperor Lineage has high cultivation and level and is a respected Tier 5 Alchemist.

Yet who would have thought that he was almost like a Puppet Leader in his faction not being able to control the resources of the sect.

Looking at Wang Wei. To the outside world he is the future leader of the most powerful sect in this world. In his life he has nothing to worry about and he has a beautiful and powerful wife.

Yet how many people know how much pressure he is under how many people’s lives are depending on him waiting for him to bring the sect to prosperity.

Over the years he appeared to have lived up to these expectations. However he along with everyone knows that if he cannot become a Great Emperor then everything is veined.

So everyone has their problem.

Master this is not the time to wallow in pity said Wang Wei.

What else can I do?

You said it yourself as long as I acquire the Origin Pill Flame Sutra Fu Caiyun’s power in the sect will be drastically decreased. Additionally I have the Flame Emperor inheritance. With those two scriptures wouldn’t be easy to deal with him?

Ye Lao’s eyes became brighter after hearing this then the luster slightly abated:

But I cannot get access to the Origin Pill Flame Sutra?

Is there really no way? There should be a way for me to acquire it without giving Fu Caiyun any chance at stopping at it.

Ye Lao frowned as he pondered deeply. Then his eyes suddenly began to shine brighter than the sun itself.

The Pill Sage Trial.
