Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 442

Chapter 442: Outlaws (I)

Wang Wei headed to the Heaven Mystery Pavillion along with Yan Chen, since he was one of the few people aware of his divination. The other people had to pretend that things were normal so they could not accompany him.

And after arriving, he discovered that the sect was still surrounded by their Protecting Formation. According to information gathered, this has been the case for the past 2500 years or more.

People would have thought that they had closed off their sects if the people inside did come out and release the news that the Path of Supreme would open up after this generation's Heaven Chosens reached the Void Shattering Realm.

"I know you can see and hear us. Open up or suffer the consequences," yelled Yan Chen towards the Array. A few minutes later, the Pavilion Master came out with a smile on his face to receive the guests.

'Damn it. We have just survived one calamity star and now another one shows up. Could it be that he discovered that we sold his information?'

The Pavilion Master knew that their Immortal Formation could not prevent the people from the Dao Opening Sect if they wanted to use force to rush in. So, in the end, they had no choice but to invite the guest in and hopefully, deal with the entire situation in a more civil way.

"Guest, welcome to our humble sect."

"Don't waste time, lead us to see Old Man Chu," said Yan Chen directly. However, the Pavilion Master still had a smile on his face as he nodded his head before leading the way.

The group was led to a room where a table and tea were prepared. Old Man Chu–who seemed to have aged–even more since the last time the pavilion had visitors stood and waited for the group to arrive.

Immediately after entering the room, Wang Wei did not waste time and dismissed all the other people with one look, then, he handed two things to Old Chu: a piece of paper and a jade talisman.

The jade talisman simply contained how to communicate in sign languages. Although Old Man Chu was curious, he did not ask anything. He could feel the strange atmosphere of the guest; their demeanor screamed that they were here for business.

The piece of paper was a basic soul contract that stated that after doing divination for them, the memories of this conversation will be wiped out from his mind. And even if he fails, the same thing will happen.

After checking to see if there were any traps, Old Man Chu signed it without hesitation. Immediately afterward, Wang Wei asked him with hands:

"Tell me how you managed to divine my location for Di Tian."

Old Man Chu secretly sighed as he feared that this day would come. He did not hide anything and told everything that occurred, including their sects acquiring an Emperor Scripture called [Eight Trigram Myriad World Secret Guide] along with an Emperor Artifact.

Wang Wei pondered for a moment as he realized the reason that Di Tian suddenly targeted him. However, now was not the time to focus on such small detail.

"Do a divination for me. After you succeed, the debt between us will be repaid?"

"Young Master Wang Wei, you have to understand that there is a high chance of failure."

However, the response he got was a cold and indifferent stare. Gritting his teeth, Old Man Chu has no choice but to prepare for the divination. And after hearing what the latter wanted to know, his hands could not help trembling.

He was not very glad that this person in front of him was reasonable and had him sign a contract instead of eliminating him to keep his secret.

Using the Emperor Artifact, Old Man Chu's soul seemed to have traveled to a land where all the answers to the mystery of the world existed, then, he begin to search for something.

Unfortunately, he returned empty-handed, making Wang Wei frown. With his physique, it would be better for him to use the Pavilion's technique and Artifact to do the divination. However, it will take too long for him to comprehend a new Emperor Scripture and he did not want to waste time.

"I will bless your body with the power of my physique, so try again. I just need the tiniest of information and I can go from there."

Old Man Chu nodded before starting again. With the Emperor Artifact and his proficiency in the scripture, he did not suffer from any backlash. So, he could make a second attempt.

While he was in the middle of the divination, a gray orb appeared in Wang Wei's body and he injected it into Old Man Chu's body, temporarily granting him the powers and abilities of his Fate Puppeteer Physique towards divination.

A few minutes later, Old Man Chu opened his eyes that were completely white and muttered in a strange and hoarse voice:

"Outlaws.."

Wang Wei's eyes lit up after hearing this: 'Does my death involve the term Outlaws? Although it is little, it is still something to go on.'

Wang Wei then activated the contract to erase the old man's memories. He even checked his soul to ensure that he did not use any other means to retain his memories before leaving.

He rushed straight to the Sect's Secret Archive after asking his parents and not receiving any information. He hoped to find any information from there. He tried to contact Wu Hong but she did not answer, so he can only be proactive.

Meanwhile, his father also went to see the Ancestor, Wang Wucheng.

After listening to the entire situation, Wang Wucheng nodded: "I've never heard of this term. I will go ask some of the really ancient old men to see if they know anything."

He then disappeared. However, what Wang Tian did not know was that Wang Wucheng did not go ask anyone as he said, but just returned to his cultivation chamber.

A few hours later, he returned while shaking his head.

"No one knew anything."

Wang Tian sighed in disappointment and thanked him before leaving. As Wang Wucheng watched his departure back, he could only sigh to himself.

'It's not that I don't want to help you but if any of us intervene, the chances of that brat surviving will be even lower, and we might even suffer casualties

'And this time, even his wife will not be able to save him.'

Wang Wucheng shook his head. However, he still had faith in the kid to survive. He could tell that he was not simple.

"Outlaws, the ones who have to prove their worthiness," he muttered to himself before returning to his cultivation.

"Did you find anything?" asked Wang Tian once he returned to the Secret Archive.

"No." In the past hours, Wang Wei learned quite a few interesting things. For example, his founder, the Sword Empress loved bamboos very much so she used one as a sword.
