Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 470

Chapter 470: Discussion

"What is this?" wrote Wang Wei with a calm demeanor.

"Salvation," replied Li Jun with the same tone.

"So, you've lied to me to lower my guard?"

Li Jun shook his head: "I did not lie. Su Ai is expecting my child. You will be a godfather soon."

Wang Wei looked at the formation around him. The first time he noticed was that it was at a level beyond his understanding, meaning that it was Immortal-Level.

He then analyzed all the runes he recognized while calculating the effects of the others based on their positions and arrangements. Then, his face became very ugly to look at it.

"Are you crazy? You want to replace me as the Trial Taker and die in my place?"

"This is the only way to save you."

"Who gave you this formation?" wrote Wang Wei furiously. "With your capability, you would not be able to create this kind of thing, let alone set it up."

Li Jun remained silent and did not say anything.

"It was Wu Hong, wasn't it?"

Wang Wei could guess the truth. Before Heavenly Dao trapped her, she went to find the secret realm of a Great Emperor who could transfer tribulations or calamities to other people.

So, she probably found the method and secretly gave it to Li Jun so that he sacrificed himself for his sake. Wang Wei could not help but be angry thinking about this.

So, he took a deep breath to calm down.

"Li Jun, don't do anything stupid. If this formation can transfer tribulation, we can choose someone else, some devil cultivator or one of my enemies. There is no need for you to do this."

"If that were possible, I would have tried that."

"What do you mean?"

"The Outlaw Trial is a Karmic Trial. For this formation to work, only someone with a deep Karmic Bound and who is meaningful to you is effective. Unfortunately, only four people available fit this criterion, and I volunteered."

Wang Wei understood what he meant and even guessed that these four people were: his mother, father, grandfather, and Li Jun. Essentially, people who he considered family and had a great spot in his heart.

He even guessed that his family knew of this formation and helped Li Jun build it.

"I have been meaning to say this for quite some time now. But, you cannot live your entire life for my sake," wrote Wang Wei as he suddenly began to reminisce.

"I understand your loyalty. Perhaps you feel like protecting me gives your life purpose. Maybe you feel like you owe me for taking care of you during childhood when everyone alienated you.

"But you cannot continue to live your life for my sake–especially now that you will be a father."

Li Jun also began to reminisce and his life.

"Maybe you're right."

When he entered the Divine Body Realm, the goal and aspiration that he imbued in his Good Fortune Flame were to protect his big brother and ensure that he succeeded in the Battle of the Throne.

"However, it is too late."

"It's never too late," replied Wang Wei. "For once, I'm begging you. Be selfish, don't do things because of me. Think of your family. Think of your future son or daughter; think about how terrible it will be to grow in this world without knowing their father."

"What about the trial?"

"I will be fine. As always, I will find a way to survive."

Li Jun looked straight at him in the eyes.

"I've always hated this side of you. It appears you rely on the people close to you, but that's not true. You will always shoulder all the burden by yourself when things get truly dangerous."

He has analyzed the battle in the Heavenly Abode World countless time, spending numerous sleepless nights going over every detail. And in the process, he concluded many things.

First, he could have saved himself in the short span that Wang Wei sent him, Yan Liling, and Tie Gang out of the world. Unfortunately, he reacted out of instinct and saved them first.

Second, Li Jun realized that Wang Wei did not have to take on the burden of fighting Di Tian on himself; he could have used their powers. Now, the latter argued that the three of them would be useless in this battle.

However, Li Jun believed otherwise. He knew that his big brother was a master of formation. So, he could have set up an Array that could borrow the power of the three of them.

"What if your formation can only temporarily postpone my death. And many years later, after your child is born, they learn of the reason that their father is gone. They grew bitter and resentful towards me, thus planning my death. _{freewebnoveℓ.com}
