Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 690

Wang Wei sighed, a little disappointed despite expecting this outcome. He would have preferred to battle Di Tian in the Emperor World than in the Heaven Will Battle as it would give him more time to gain an advantage. And on the unlikely chance they become allies, his plan would benefit greatly.

'It was never possible,' he shook his head. For his plan, Wang Wei needed absolute power, and the existence of someone as powerful as Di Tian, who could contradict his order, would be harmful. As such, their egos would never leave room for peaceful cooperation.

He finally looked at Wrath and unsealed her.

"Only communicate through Divine Sense," he instructed her through a sound transmission that only two could hear. Although puzzled, she agreed.

"Why didn't you help me save Gluttony?" she questioned.

"I only promised to look after you. I don't care what happens to the others."

"You!" Her anger was about to explode. "Can't you do something at all?"

"No. He's currently more powerful than me. I will be powerless if he becomes determined to catch or kill you."

"You simply don't care," she commented.

"That's also a reason."

"What if I insist on putting myself in danger?"

"Then, you will die. Anyway, I am not bound by any contracts. If you are stupid enough to do such a thing, you deserve to reunite with your master."

Wrath stared at him with fiery eyes; if she had the power, she would kill him in the most painful way possible.

"Do you want to test if that's true?" she replied, calling on his bluff.

"Little girl, don't act out before me. Don't think I don't know you attacked Di Tian because you knew I would come to save you," said Wang Wei with a gentle smile. However, Wrath's body trembled as she felt a deep fear deep in her soul.

"I'm usually a patient and chill person to get along with. But don't push my buttons. You understand?"

Wrath mechanically nodded; her body moved by instinct while her mind was overwhelmed by fear.

"Alright. If you want to save your friends, become powerful enough to take it from his hands."

"I-I will," replied Wrath, who bit her tongue to use the pain to overcome the fear. Simultaneously, she made a new goal for herself. No, two, but she did not know whether she could ever accomplish the other.

'It doesn't matter if I can succeed. Pursuing this monster's footstep will allow me to go far in the cultivation path.' A firm determination flashed in her eyes.

Wang Wei saw the change in her eyes and temperament, but he did not care enough to ask or figure it out. "Quickly finish your end of our bargain."

"Alright."

"One last thing. I will attack you, and you have to defend before running away with your companion."

Wrath was smart and quickly figured something was going on. However, she did not ask any further questions. Wang Wei suddenly attacked her with immense force, and she blocked him with her sword. However, she did not retaliate but broke the void with her two companions.

Wang Wei watched her leave with an intense killing intent emanating from his body.

'Her cunningness and scheming ability are not bad,' he thought, smiling internally.

He knew Wrath had a two steps plan for fighting Di Tian. The first relied on him to save her, and the other was threatening or blackmailing him. So, she sent Sloth and Envy to Gluttony's Territory to take Di Tian's troops hostage when necessary.

However, Wang Wei thinks she underestimated his strength and ruthlessness. He could save his men and capture her with relative ease. Or worse, sacrifice these soldiers to kill these devils.

'Nothing?' suddenly thought Wang Wei. When he first arrived, his intuition warned him of prying eyes nearby. However, no matter how much he searched or the method he used, he did not detect anything.
