Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 1353

Unedited Chapter.

-----

Five Feathers opened her eyes in a secret room and spewed a large mouthful of blood. Her aura became chaotic before dramatically reducing. She swiftly swallowed a handful of pills, trying to manage the situation. However, the situation worsened in a matter of seconds. Five Feathers’ face turned purple, followed by massive pimples with pus manifesting.

Her face contorted in pain. It was the worst time for the curse to act up, but it was expected, given her weakened state. She no longer hesitated to swallow a few more rare pills. It took her more than ten minutes to stabilize her situation.

She cultivated for over two hours before appeasing her injury and suppressing that curse. Five Feathers then swiftly checked her face and sighed in relief once she discovered it was back to normal.

"Damn that woman," she roared. She was already in a bad state, and losing that clone further aggravated the injury. "I want to rip her eyes off," Five Feather cursed, but as soon as she uttered those words, she remembered that sword attack. Her body and soul trembled as a deep fear rushed down her spine.

That attack returned her to the era where she was ordinary, where she had to struggle for her survival. The helplessness of being powerless almost drove Five Feathers crazy.

"No, this can’t go on. I must do something," Five Feather yelled. Her survival instinct kicked in, and she wanted to survive this ordeal at all times. Simultaneously, it also awakened the ambition in her heart. Five Feather took a deep breath: "That woman was right. I’m too weak. My next goal should be to break this curse. Once I’m at my peak, I can use all the resources to increase my strength."

Five Feathers analyzed this plan and felt nothing wrong with it. In her youth, she was ambitious and willing to do anything for strength and power. However, she lost that side of her after obtaining power. That sword strike awakened her, making the little phoenix realize her mistake.

’No one in the world can cultivate, but we should be the exception, right? After all, we have completely surrendered to the Lord. If he wants us to keep helping him, he should allow us to increase our strength in dealing with the current situation.’

Five Feathers felt there was nothing wrong with this plan except for one thing: ’This damn curse.’ She pondered briefly before waving her hand to activate a technique.

Five Element Phoenix Palace, Throne Room:

All of Five Feathers’ subordinates were waiting, and a few minutes later, her projection appeared on the throne. She had never left her secret room since that injury, and the best formation of the palace protected that room.

"Well?" she asked, but no one answered. On the contrary, most people lowered their heads, fearing she would pay attention to them. "Say something!" she yelled. The hall was still quiet. "Dark Phoenix? Isn’t this your main job?"

"Reporting, Lord," said a beautiful woman dressed in tight all-black robes and a phoenix mark on her forehead. "There is no news about the Putrid White Leaf."

"That’s what you have to report?" Five Feathers asked, not hiding her killing intent. The Putried White Leaf is a rare Supreme Chaos Herb that is born by gathering the most evil and negative qi between Heaven and Earth, then, through Ying-Yang Laws, revert into the purest substance between Heaven and Earth. It is one of the best treasures for dealing with curses.

"I’m sorry, Lord," Dark Phoenix answered with her head lowered. "We could not find it in our territory, and before your return, we had to reduce our forces and influences on the outside to prevent losses."

"All I’m hearing are excuses."

Dark Phoenix felt wronged. She was telling the truth, but her boss was unreasonable today. It also did not help that a few million yuan epochs ago, she used the territory only Putrid White Leaf had for a minor curse that she could have eradicated with little effort and a retreat of less than a hundred thousand years.

The Lord has always been willful and wasteful, but did she finally realize the consequences of her actions? Dark Phoenix doesn’t believe it. ’Did fate finally abandon us?’ she thought. ’I knew this day was coming, but I did not expect it to come so fast.’

Five Feathers became quiet on the throne, her aura suppressing everyone present. She was thinking of a solution. Killing herself was no longer an option, and she lost one life to learn this truth. She only had two left and did not want to waste them.
