Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 1225

1225 The Battle Colosseum

"So, that's why their auras are so weird," Wang Wei commented, finally figuring out the puzzle. "So many talented individuals: it seems I made the correct decision to come here." He glanced at his new subordinates and started beating them up. He then handed a talisman with access to his strength to the petite woman before disappearing.

The petite woman then secretly led the group back to the pavilion; they immediately entered a secret room to activate a formation. "Pavilion Master," they all saluted as they knelt on one knee.

"Things didn't go well?" asked a hoarse voice hidden by a black mist.

"We have failed you."

"How strong is he? Do you have a reference?" The Dark Cloud Pavilion Master asked.

"He defeated us with such ease, I'm guessing a minimum of 80%."

"Guess?"

"I'm sorry, sir, but it was truly an overwhelming defeat."

"Is that so?" the shadowy figure muttered. "One last question: why are you still alive?"

"He wanted us to send a message," the petite woman replied.

"A message? What a bold fellow," the pavilion master sneered, not hiding his slight irritation. "What message?" _{freewёbnoνel.com}

The petite woman hesitated.

"Speak."

The hesitation did not abate.

"Do you want me to repeat myself?" the pavilion master asked sternly.

So, she quickly answered: "He said the next time you people play such tricks on him, he will burn our pavilion down."

The Pavilion Master laughed, his voice containing a hidden chill. "I can't remember the last time an overconfident brat has entered this place." He exhaled deeply. "Maybe this is good news. We've been a little too quiet lately and I need someone to make an example of.

"You're dismissed, and don't forget to head to the Law Enforcement for your punishment."

"Yes, Pavilion Master."

The communication ended, leaving the mysterious figure alone with his thoughts. "I need to start moving." The Dark Cloud Pavilion's current situation was not ideal, especially compared to the other pavilions. The Azure Sky Pavilion sells weapons, talismans, and special ores. The Green Earth Pavilion's primary focus is pills and spiritual herbs. Both these people control over 90% of the market.

The Dark Cloud Pavilion's primary service is information and assassination, and they also control the market. However, the nature of their work was different from the others. Resources are rare in this desolate place, so the other pavilions could only do business because of their secret connection to the outside world. However, the Dark Cloud Pavilion did not have to rely on the outside for their work.

This fact was previously a great advantage to them. After all, they did not need to risk trips to the outside world for their business to continue. Sadly, fate was not on their side. The situation on the outside drastically changed, leading to fewer people coming to the Lawless Zone and more people leaving.

The other pavilion's business became easier to conduct, leading to a drastic increase in profit. The Pavilion Master even suspects these pavilions have already established a footing in the outside world, preparing to possibly leave this place. Meanwhile, he's stuck here.

His information network was useless on the outside, and his previous attempts at establishing one failed miserably. The situation has reached the point where he needs to make drastic changes to maintain his power and maybe even increase it.

…

Wang Wei soon arrived before a floating continent with a towering pagoda at the center. 'These people seem to enjoy tall buildings,' Wang Wei remarked. There were no entrance guards or fees, so he casually entered; the process was easy as the formation did not even stop him. However, Wang Wei immediately felt another formation scanning his body.

Once that was done, a few characters appeared above his head: [Empyrean. Victory: 0. Loss:0] Then, a spatial power enveloped him, teleporting him to the east side of the continent. Wang Wei looked around, and everyone was the same, with their cultivation and win-loss ratio written above their heads.

'The information so far is correct. The east side is for immortal cultivators, and the west side is for mortals,' Wang Wei thought. He suddenly took a deep breath and inhaled. 'The energy in the environment can accelerate healing, but it also makes it easier for people to be violent and start fights. This Barbarian King truly worshiped the art of combat.'

"Hey, you over there."

"Yes?" Wang Wei replied.

"I like your clothes. Give them to me," said a middle-aged man with a lion mane for a beard.

Wang Wei looked above his head: [Empyrean. Victory: 3134. Loss: 12.]
