Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 996

Chapter 996 What is Your Choice?

Wang Wei opened his eyes in the Heavenly Court,

"The first step of the alliance has been established. Next, people like Shi Qian and Xi Shangyan should be excellent allies," he muttered to himself before waving his hand, and a screen appeared before him.

The screen was dark for a few seconds before a young man manifested above.

"I thought you had forgotten about our deal."

"I am a man of my word. Since I said I would help, then I won't go back on my mind."

Wang Wei glanced at Liang Shixian opposite him. The latter appeared not to have changed since their last encounter during Gu Xuan's Deception Trial. However, he could see signs of tiredness and worries hidden behind the latter's body language and microexpressions.

"So, have you created the new path?" he asked excitedly.

"No, I've only set up the first stage."

"Oh, I thought it was finally completed."

"No, I just wanted to reassure you that I wouldn't break my words."

"It's okay. Remember to contact me when you're finished."

Wang Wei nodded before closing the communication.

'Trouble amongst the Divine Race?'

After thinking about it for a while, he realized such a situation was inevitable. After Feng Heng removed the Absolute Beginning Magic that targeted faith and the Divine Race, their next step should be to return to the world.

However, they've been isolated for so long that they no longer have a homeland. Scattering themselves to multiple world communities will drastically weaken their power, and Wang Wei guessed some elders or people in power do not want this to happen.

'If remember correctly, there was internal fighting amongst them between the younger and older generation. Things should have escalated by now.'

He shook his head as he did not care about the trouble of their race. Wang Wei waved his hand to send multiple talismans that rushed to different corners of the world.

He walked out of his room, looking at the mostly empty court. He raised his eyes to glance at the universe above. After his visit to the Star Beast World, he created a Starry Sky Universe as a decoration for the Heavenly Court, making it more beautiful than it used to be. As such, the stars are extremely elegant at night.

He soon arrived at a pool in the court and began fishing. A few minutes later, six people showed up: Lin Fan, Jian Wushuang, Zhen Biyu, Jingwu Hua, Yang Guowei, and Yin Gen. Everyone looked at each other and guessed the criteria for being summoned.

Wang Wei raised his head to look at these people across the pond. With a glance, he could feel the myriad of emotions they were experiencing: awe, respect, fear, regret, and shame.

"Wait a while since not everyone is here yet," commanded Wang Wei before a portal appeared before him, floating above the lake.

"Where is Xiao Songxi's body?"

Ao Shen was shocked at first before swiftly composing himself. Without hesitation, he took out a decrepit body that was on the verge of collapsing.

"The Baishe Clan did not want anything to do with him, so I had to keep him alive in this state."

Wang Wei did not comment on Ao Shen's words; with the latter's strength, it should not be a problem to heal Xiao Songxi. However, since his command was only to keep the latter alive, he had technically fulfilled his promise.

Xiao Songxi's body flew out of the portal before closing. Wang Wei pointed at him, and the Dao of Life and Death began to work its magic. In a few seconds, his body returned to its peak state, including his damaged Bloodline Source.

Xiao Songxi was groggy and disoriented, not knowing his surroundings. However, before he could have time to acclimate, a large amount of information about the world's changes appeared in his mind.

Wang Wei left everybody's side while still in a daze as he continued his work. He pointed forward, and a projection manifested as the eight individuals appeared.

However, he soon sensed a terrifying killing intent and looked at the source. Lin Fan–who was the weakest here with his Divine Altar Cultivation–looked at Su Ya with a passion that could burn the world.

"Where am I?" asked Su Ya, looking at her surroundings as her natural black hair floated with the wind.

"You're still sealed, but I've summoned your consciousness."

She looked at him, perplexed for a moment.

"So, you were the final winner."

"Yes, but a lot more has happened since then," explained Wang Wei before transmitting a lot of information about recent events in her mind.

"So, that's how it is," she muttered as her hair turned into a beautiful rainbow. She glanced at Lin Fan, her eyes calm and composed, almost indifferent. Finally, her gaze shifted back to Wang Wei, waiting for him to continue.

"I've summoned all of you to give you an opportunity. Well, it should be described more as a choice."

He paused as he felt these people's bodies tense. He knew some of them probably thought he summoned them here to eliminate future competitors for the Dao Opening Sect.

"I will give you a chance to prove the Dao in this generation."
