Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 1374

Chapter 1374 Don't Do Anything

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.
