Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

1021 Demon Catastrophe

"Of course not," replied Wang Wei. "I plan to cook them slowly. First, Sword One will use this event to accuse these people of interfering in other world affairs. They have, of course, refuted that claim. However, with her insistence and fear of my power, they have relented some power to us to calm down the situation.

"Now, all I have to do is to slowly infiltrate their ranks and learn as much as possible while pretending I no longer hold a grudge. When they believe I have let things go, that's when I will strike and take control of everything in one fell swoop."

"I understand," nodded Wang Ju, who knew what to do next. She only needs to provide people to Sword One and aid her in infiltration.

"That's good. How is the Fate Shadow Guard developing?"

"Very well. I have used your Soul Network Ability to recruit members from all over the lower dimension," reported Wang Ju. "It was easy to find talented individuals who were not detected by other factions or desperate people who would sell their souls for one reason or another. With such a large and easily recruited talent pool, I have expanded our spread to more than 300 Heaven Will Communities."

"Oh, that's impressive. Did you have any trouble when infiltrating the Heaven Will Worlds?"

"We had a few encounters with worlds with keen Eternal Powerhouses, but our approach has always been to be quiet and steady. So, no real trouble so far."

"That's good news. What happened to my Chat Group?" After granting Wang Ju his Soul Network Talent, he also ordered her to take control of the group.

"I recruited the Assassin into the guard. The Mad King and Wannabe God wanted independence and freedom, so I let them go after they paid their debt. The rest chose to become members of the Gray Hall."

The Gray Hall is one of the Dao Opening Sect's best businesses in the Commerce Hub, focusing on hiring mercenaries and selling information.

With the Soul Network and the Fate Shadow Guard, the hall has quickly become one of the best in that field. If not for the secret restraint of other members of the hub and its early age and lack of prestige, it would have dominated the field of information selling.

"With these two's personalities and ambitions, it made sense they chose that path," nodded Wang Wei. He did not know whether his path would meet again with these people, but he doubted it.

However, with the scripture he created for them, they might be very successful in cultivating if they play their cards correctly. One of them might even prove the Dao.

"You can attend to your work now," said Wang Wei, and Wang Ju bowed before leaving.

Another ten years passed, and nothing major had changed in the world. Arts and crafts were still rapidly developing in the mortal and cultivation worlds. However, no one has yet replicated Xu Shi's success. Wang Wei had to wake up because the clone told him two of the major events he was waiting for were about to happen.

Once he woke up, he checked his work. Nothing major had changed except for the sect telling him some of the pills he wanted refined from the "material" gathered in the Dao Burial Ground were about to finish. So, he was happy about that.

The Dream World was proceeding smoothly, and his friends and family were either retreating or traveling the world to temper their minds.

Without anything to do, he waited.

Myriad Emperor World Community, an unknown Great Thousand World:

Two demons waited before a formation for someone. One was in his human shape but with red eyes, while the other one was an enormous spider. They seemed nervous and excited as they waited.

"Can't you use your human form?" complained Crazy Eye.

"No," replied the spider. "The Chief said we should love and embrace our demon forms. He said although it's easier to cultivate in the human form, we should get comfortable in our own body - I'm just following his words."

Crazy Eye grunted and wished to say the Chief barely stayed in his demon form. However, he dared not say such a thing. The two soon became quiet and waited for more than half an hour before the formation flashed, and a woman in all black, including black rouge on her lips, walked out.

Their hearts skipped a beat as they saw who came -the legendary Black Winged Eagle, known for her harsh and cruel punishment. The spider immediately turned into his human form to prevent offending her.

"You two are the ones who claimed to have found a supreme bloodline?"

"Yes, Sir Black Eagle," said Crazy Eye after seeing his companion's cowardness and lack of desire to talk.

"You should understand the consequences of lying about such a thing?" Her words were plain and straightforward, without any hint of

intimidation. However, they immediately felt chills running down their spine.

"We do."

"Good. Show me the good."

The two swiftly led her to the nearby compound to a room that contained a young man tied and gagged.

"Why is he in such a bad state?" asked Black Eagle as she took out an artifact shaped like a lamp. The two looked at each other before Crazy Eye spoke again:

"He kept screaming [Do you know who I am?] and [You will regret this], so we had to beat him up a little to quiet him down."

"His identity? D..."

Her eyes bulged as the lamp glowed with intense purple-gold. She had never seen such a powerful and potent bloodline in all her life. For a moment, she was fascinated and wished to take it for herself. Luckily, she had great willpower and unwavering loyalty and quickly woke up. Without hesitation, she waved her hand to place the young man inside a secure dimension before turning around and looking at these two.

"You did a great job, and the Chief will reward you." For a moment, Black Eagle wanted to kill these two to silence them. However, thinking about how the Chief has been advocating for change and not using crude and cruel ways to deal with things, she chose otherwise.

Crazy Eye and the spider secretly sighed in relief.

Before reporting this news, they also feared the possibility of silence. Luckily, the Chief's attempt at changing their kind was successful. They knew from now on that their lives would be different once they received their rewards.

Black Eagle did not want to waste time, so she used the formation to return to the Myriad Emperor World swiftly. She breathed in relief after seeing she was back home. Her first instinct was to run to the Chief and report her finding, but she decided otherwise. She decided to report things usually and act as usual.

Their task force is very secret since it could offend or alert unwanted individuals. Because of their secretive nature, they must act in specific ways to prevent their identity from leaking. Black Eagle knew rushing to the Chief would signal to the people watching that something significant had happened in the North.

Ao Shen's residence:

He suddenly opened his eyes, "What's going on?

Why do I feel such palpitation?" A sense of dread seemed to loom over him. He frowned before walking out of the room. He looked at the sky, and his furrowed brow became deeper.

Visible only to his eyes was the demon race's Qi Luck Dragon, which he quickly spotted a profound black spot.

"A sign of catastrophe? What's going on?" He immediately used one of his bloodlines to divine some information. Luckily for him, he soon found the source.

"Black Eagle?"

Ao Shen did not hesitate to summon her secretly; he went the extra mile to hide from any prying eyes.

"Tell me what happened?"

"Chief, did you also sense that bloodline?"

"What do you mean?"

Black Eagle was puzzled but did not hesitate to reveal the captured young man and explain what happened. The moment Ao Shen looked at the young man, he had an ugly expression.

"Chief...Is there something wrong?"

"That's a direct descendant of the Wang Clan."

The color immediately drained from Black Eagle's face. She wanted to deny it but realized why this young man's bloodline was so powerful and noble.

She immediately knelt on the ground and said: "Chief, I swear I did not know."

Ao Shen was doing everything possible to control his emotions. He was very careful in selecting people for his Bloodline Hunting Task Force. He placed Black Eagle in such a high position because of her meticulous and fair personality.

Yet, this still happens.

"Chief, you can offer my head to placate the Heavenly Emperor's fury."

"No need."

"Chief, this is no time for compassion. If my death can save the demon race, do not hesitate." She was only a Quasi-Emperor, so her death would not affect the race too much.

"Are you the chief, or am I?" rebutted Ao Shen sternly. "You can leave, and I will deal with the situation myself. Your punishment will come once this ordeal is dealt with."

He dismissed her before spending the next minutes thinking alone. After analyzing the situation, he immediately left for the court to see the Heavenly Emperor.
