Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Dong Tian frowned, realizing this situation was not ideal. People like Wang Wei are arrogant, believing their futures are boundless. As such, they take unknown promises or restrictions seriously. There is a saying that favors are the most difficult debts to repay, and this situation fits.

He pondered briefly before changing the wording of his request: "We only require you to procure something for us. The thing is something that only you can acquire, and the process is not dangerous."

"It seems that I cannot get more information from you," Wang Wei stated directly, making Dong Tian frown.

"Yes, I do know what you want from me," Wang Wei said. "And no, I can't read your mind." Dong Tian's face was gloomy. He could not tell whether this man was telling the truth or whether this was a mind tactic to gain more advantage in this negotiation.

"No, this is not a mind-tactic," Wang Wei added. "Your Emperor's plan might be top secret to your dynasty and the world, but after you took the Demon Suppression Emperor, many people will be able to deduce what you're planning once they find out what's so unique about her."

Dong Tian instantly became gloomy and did not hide his intent to kill. However, Wang Wei just shrugged: "Don't be mad at me since it's your fault you were so sloppy when capturing her. You could have been more subtle or made it look like you captured her for something else."

Dong Tian controlled his emotions, and thus, his face became deadpan. 'I need to control myself. Damn it, I should have listened to these old geezer and be more careful.'

"It seems now your emotions are of regret, so what are you regretful for?" Wang Wei asked. "Is it because of your behavior for this meeting? It seems I'm right. Well, don't blame yourself. Many people are warned to be careful when dealing with my kind, but they rarely listen, and even when they do, it rarely matters."

"Lord Wang Wei," Dong Tian said, having calmed down his nerves. "Now that you know our purpose, what do you think of our proposition?"

"Calming down so quickly, huh? I now understand why you were chosen for this mission," Wang Wei commented before sipping his wine. "Well?"

"My answer is no."

"I don't think this is an issue of price," Dong Tian asked with a frown. "That title is not worth much to you, so why not sell it for a high price."

"I have no problem selling it for a high price," Wang Wei responded. He was telling the truth. The Human Emperor's Path of Transcendence does not fit with him, so his title/position of Three Realm Emperor meant nothing to him. At best, he might be able to create a decent technique about it once he becomes a transcendent. So, if he could get a price worth it, he might be willing to sell or exchange it.

"So, it is an issue of price," Dong Tian commented. "But I think our offer is very sincere. With our help, you will have access to two Overlords' support, thus increasing your chances of surviving this catastrophe."

Wang Wei looked at him intently: "Whoever sent you in this plan is either stupid, thinks I'm stupid, or likes to gamble. Your dynasty has existed for so long, so I doubt such a foolish person can rise high enough to influence its power.

"No one will think I'm stupid, so that leaves the third option — he's a gambler."

"What's the meaning of this?"

"Am I wrong?" Wang Wei asked. "Don't you people believe I'm desperate enough to accept such a stupid deal." He did not hide the sneer and disdain in his voice.

"My catastrophe?" he continued. "I may be on his list to deal with first, but who do you think he will eliminate next? It's people in Limbo — like your Emperor — who represent the final hope for Heavenly Dao to fight back.

"You guys should be glad that I'm alive to bear the brunt of most of his focus. But once I'm gone, the blade will hang above your necks again. You don't want to help me in this catastrophe? Fine. Wait until he's no longer occupied and start cleaning you up."

Dong Tian controlled his trembling hands: "You should understand there is a difference between having our full cooperation and not."

"I don't care if you fully cooperate or not," Wang Wei continued. "In fact, I know you will fully cooperate. Your dynasty holds the blessing of the [Human Emperor Position], and the world is in chaos. How could you not help? How many people have been waiting for an opportunity to take that position away from you?"

Wang Wei snickered: "Go ahead, do it. Don't do anything. By now, I'm sure your Emperor has fully digested the power of that position and may not need it, but there will still be some negative effects on the dynasty itself and on acquiring the other two without it."

To say Dong Tian was gloomy is an understatement. This conversation destroyed his pride as a negotiator, and more importantly, this man seemed to know the dynasty's top secrets. If he did not know how strong Wang Wei was and his terrifying background, he would have returned home and suggested the dynasty spent all its power to eradicate him.

"I suddenly had a thought," Wang Wei continued. "Can a world, or an era, have two Human Emperors simultaneously?"

"What do you mean?" Dong Tian asked, feeling a sense of foreboding.

"Once I save this world, with everything I've done, it's not too far-fetched to say Heavenly Dao will grant, no, upgrade, my [Human Emperor Position], right? So, what will happen then? Will it strip it from you and give it to me, or allow the existence of two emperors to exist simultaneously?"

Wang Wei smirked while Dong Tian panicked. "There has been no precedent, so I don't know what will happen, but I look forward to that day. Maybe, by then, you'll have to pay me to retain your title."

Dong Tian remained quiet, not knowing what to say. However, Wang Wei was done with him. "Alright, you've overstayed your welcome. Tell your people how I feel about selling my position. Unless your Emperor can take something of equal value, don't even think of getting his hands on it.

"And don't forget that he's not the only buyer. I'm sure many people walking the Sovereign Path are interested, and some might want to get their hands on it just to block his transcendent path.

"I have no obligation to only sell it to him."

These words shocked and scared Dong Tian, but that will not change anything. Wang Wei stood up and disappeared.

"Wait!" Dong Tian yelled, but it was too late. Wang Wei was gone, leaving only his voice echoing in the surrounding void as a last warning: "You should leave soon since I will be eradicating this dimension." Dong Tian did not think he was bluffing and quickly escaped. Of course, his haste was not only out of a desire to leave that dangerous place but also because he wanted to return home as soon as possible to recount what happened. Dong Tian was in such a hurry that he did not even notice Wang Wei secretly following. Well, even if he were in the correct mindset, it's doubtful whether he would notice. Wang Wei had no interest in Dong Tian's secrets, nor did he think he would find some hidden methods of the Qin Dynasty. His only purpose was to prevent someone from framing him.

He did not think Great Qin would go to war with him over the death of one ambassador, but it could turn their relationship from "neutral" to "less friendly," and he did not want that—especially if it was not his choice. Luckily, he seemed to be overthinking. Dong Tian reached home without anyone interfering or trying to kill him. So, Wang Wei dispersed the projection following him.

As for what Great Qin would do afterward? It was easy to guess. They'll first contact their Emperors and tell them about the meeting, followed by listening to his words and trying to cover the Demon Suppressing Emperor's affairs — although it was too late. Finally, they will get more involved in this catastrophe to ensure they, at the very least, can retain their [Human Emperor Position].

Wang Wei now had more time on his hand to train the Mortal Civilizations. The Black Phoenix War, as contemporary historians labeled the current war between the two parasites, continued. The two leaders had not clashed since the last time, but the confrontation between their subordinates led to chaos, leaving a significant area of the world in turmoil.

Everyone knew that this clash was building for a climax, and if that clash had no result, everyone would once again start building momentum for the next climax. This process will repeat itself until there is a victor or a major change that either stops the war or shifts to something else.
