Novel Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor Chapter 199

Something strange or magical happened to Wang Wei during his Lust Trial in the Pagoda. There were two completely different women that appeared in his trial, which was supposedly impossible.

Afterward he asked the people who created the Pagoda and they told him that this was not supposed to happen. An inquiry was made to find the cause of this anomaly but nothing was ever discovered.

The best explanation was either that the Pagoda malfunctioned or someone tampered with it. However neither of these explanations actually made sense. As a Quasi-Emperor Origin Artifact it is impossible for the Pagoda to malfunction on his own.

As for being tempered with how powerful would somebody have to be able to do such a thing without alerting all the powerful people in the sect. After breaking through the Supernatural Realm Wang Wei was privy to a few secrets of the sect as such he knew how truly powerful it actually was.

He knew that the true heritage of the Dao Opening Sect is actually all those Dao Ancestors and Immortal Venerables sleeping in Secret Realms. Those people would only intervene once the sect reached the level of being destroyed or when another Great Emperor appeared in the sect again.

So to be able to interfere with this Pagoda under the gaze of these people such a person would have to be extremely powerful.

More importantly why do such a thing?

So ever since the Pagoda Trial Wang Wei has always remembered the face of that woman he met. Although her temperament was completely different from back then her beauty was still the same.

Who is that? he asked Wang Ju through Divine Sense.

Young Master that is Wu Hong she is third in the list of the most beautiful women and also a very powerful and mysterious Heaven Chosen.

What other information do you have on her?

She was born in an ordinary mortal family however she acquired the inheritance of Empress Wu.

Empress Wu?

Yes. As a matter of fact many people believed that she is either the direct descendants of Empress Wu or her reincarnation. After all not only does she have the same name as her but she looks exactly like her.

Wang Wei nodded as he began to ponder. Empress Wu lived during the Devil Era and she is considered one of the most powerful Great Emperors to have ever walked the Myriad Emperor.

If there was a list of the top 10 most powerful Emperors of this world she would easily enter the top 3 if not the first place. A perfect example of that was the Forbidden Lands. Before the Devil Era there used to be 10 Forbidden Lands. Yet she single handedly destroyed 4 of them. Now only 6 of them are left.

And many people believed if it was not due to her untimely disappearances she would have destroyed more of them.

What else do you know about her? asked Wang Wei again.

Well she is quite mysterious. Due to her low background extreme beauty and talent many powerful factions wanted to use force to make her join them. However none of the people they sent after her returned.

What do you mean that they never returned?

I mean that literally young master. Whether it was Void Shattered Realm Saint or Supreme True Monarchs all of them disappeared after going after her. It is assumed that these people are dead. As a result of this many people realized that she was not a simple character.

Does she have a Dao Protector?

That’s the problem young master. No person has ever been detected secretly protecting her. Wherever she travels she always seems alone.

While Wang Wei was having this fast conversation with Wang Ju his eyes never left her. Then Wu Hong seemed to feel his gaze so she looked at Wang Wei then smiled at him.

As soon as his eyes met hers Wang Wei suddenly found that his vision changed. To be exact his Fate Puppeteer Physique activated and he saw a red string connecting him with her.

Then he was surprised. This was because of how strong and powerful this Fate Line actually was. Wang Wei had many Fate Lines connected to him however the strongest has always been his parents.

He guessed that because they gave birth to him he had a strong fate with his family. But today he finally discovered a Fate Line more powerful than his own family so he became even more intrigued about her.

As for Wu Hong she only gave Wang Wei a brief look before taking a seat of her own. However not long after she sat down Wang Wei approached her and took the seat next to her.

Hello I am Wang Wei.

I know who you are she replied calmly with a slight smile on her face. Sacred Son you are famous all over the world.

I’m sure I am however I usually introduce myself when I meet new people.

Is that so? I have the feeling you are not the kind of person that cares for social norms.

That may be true but I found it very useful to often maintain a surface level of civilized behavior. After all I would not want people to criticize my parents for not raising me right.

Somehow I doubt that this is the real reason.

Oh replied Wang Wei with an intrigued look on his face. So what do you think is the real reason?

You probably use that handsome face of yours and the reassuring smile to make other people lower their guard against you. Then it becomes easier to get close to them make friends or discover their secrets that might be useful to you.

Although I am baffled at the fact that you see me in such a negative light I’m willing to overlook this fact on the account that you just admitted that I was handsome.

Is the fact that you are handsome something to be disputed about? asked Wu Hong still with a calm and confident smile.

No but it is not often that I see a woman so bold to actually admit it out loud and to my face at that.

Well young master Wang Wei I am not like any ordinary woman.

That is the only thing that I currently know and am very sure about you.

While these two people were whispering to each other Xi Shi–who was not very happy that her limelight was briefly stolen by Wu Hong–started the meeting.

The first part of this meeting was her playing the zither. She was very talented with it to the point that she can be called a Grandmaster. Moreover her zither had the power to wash away all the worries of the mind making the listener enter an extreme calm state. What’s more this calm state is very beneficial to understand the Laws between Heaven and Earth.

During her piece even Wu Hong and Wang Wei stopped talking in order to appreciate the music. They both closed their eyes and entered an ethereal and peaceful state of mind. And it was not them but all the people inside the room.

After Xi Shi finished playing then it was the turn of the other Heaven Chosens to display their talents.

The next person who did something was actually Su Ya. She also took out a zither and played a piece. However hers was vastly different from Xi Shi’s.

She took everyone on a magical journey of emotional ups and downs. In just a few minutes all the Heaven Chosen of the room experienced all the emotions that ever existed and the experience was horrifyingly vivid.

Whether it was pain happiness sadness or love. And there were so many more and so many nuances to the emotions. These people experience physical pain and the pain of losing the love of your life. They also experience the pain of losing a family member instead of a love companion.

Su Ya was able to vividly express the subtle difference between these two kinds of pain.

Then came the self doubts and insecurities that everyone has in their heart. She managed to bring all of them into the minds of these Heaven Chosens. Although this was only possible because some of them did not guard against her this was a terrifying ability to do such a thing.

What a scary woman whispered Wang Wei.

You are right about that replied Wu Hong. There is a reason that the Six Emotions Seven Desires Body is ranked third in the Heavenly Physique List. It does not matter whether you are a Saint Supreme or Great Emperor no one can escape their emotions or desires–especially the desires to become stronger and pursue the Dao.

That’s true. Even if a person practices the Indifferent Dao he still cannot escape the shackles of desires.

‘It seemed that I have to pay more attention to this Su Ya. However people like her who play with emotions are often easily brought down by emotions themselves secretly thought Wang Wei.

Meanwhile Wu Hong suddenly looked at him before saying You were just thinking about how you could defeat her didn’t you?

I have no idea what you are talking about replied Wang Wei with no change in his expression.
