Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 41

The person who answered Great Elder Long Bo was actually Great Elder Fan Lei, who is in charge of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion or the Library of the Dao Opening Sect. He is also a member of the sectarian faction as Long Bo and Han Li.

However, unlike Long Bo, Great Elder Fan Lei can be considered a team player. He has no problem putting the benefit for the sect before his own faction.

Despite the contradicting personality, Fan Lei and Long Bo are actually quite close--or should say they were close.

Great Elder Fan Lei--who was looking over the library--looked in the direction of his old friend Long Bo and sighed melancholy.

As one of the closest friends to Great Elder Long Bo, he truly understood his ideas and ambitions.

Fan Lei knew that Long Bo wanted to strengthen the amount of power that the Sectarian faction has in the sect.

And what is the best way to do so?

Of course, it is to have another Emperor.

In the Dao Opening Sect, the Wang Family has 4 Emperors, the Li and Yan family both have 2 Emperors each. Only the Sectarian faction only has 1 Emperor.

Long Bo believed that as long as their sectarian faction produced another Great Emperor under his watch, their power and speaking ability in the sect would increase dramatically.

In fact, Fan Lei has long realized that Long Bo was quite the selfish person; he did not want another sectarian Great Emperor to appear.

What he wanted was to personally train an Emperor himself, then be able to take over power during the rise of said Emperor.

Unfortunately for Long Bo, it is extremely hard to raise an Emperor properly--especially when you are on your own.

Fan Lei and many other sectarian faction people have long realized that Long Bo did not have what it took to properly raise a Great Emperor on his own. In fact, even the person he chose had problems.

During the past years, all the Upper Level of the sect have been paying attention to the growth of Han Li before the birth of the Young Sect Master.

Despite having the #12 physique, the Heavenly Thunder Body, Han Li’s past result can only be evaluated as "above mediocre".

This fact was further proven to be true when his result in the Pagoda Trials came out and even Li Jun could defeat him in many trials.

As a result of this, the higher ups of the Dao Opening Sect did not hesitate to decide to train Wang Wei for the next Heaven Mandate when they saw the vision he was born with.

Luckily, Wang Wei’s actions during the past decade have proven that they have made the right choice. The future of the Dao Opening Sect is looking quite bright and prosperous.

Great Elder Fan Lei knew that his old friend Long Bo was in quite the dangerous situation and he has not even realized it.

The Dao Opening Sect has placed too much investment in this year’s fight for the Heaven Mandate. If one day, they decide that Long Bo is a danger or instability for the sect’s future, then the only thing that awaits Great Elder Long Bo is his untimely death by the hands of his own sect.

If Long Bo keeps going on like this, that day will not be far off. Fan Lei sighed again when he thought about the possible future fate of his old friend.

...

Meanwhile, in the Wang Family Mountain.

Wang Wei and Han Li were having a very cordial chat over tea.

Wang Wei kept asking Han Li about his experience throughout his cultivation journey due to the fact that he had never left the sect ever since he was born.
