Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Gao Buqin frowned after hearing this. He hesitated for a few seconds, wishing to say something.

"Is there something?" asked Di Tian.

"Master, is it necessary to reveal our trump card now?" asked Gao Buqin. "Wouldn't it be better for you to use your real strength?"

Di Tian understood what he meant. During this confrontation, he only used 5-Root Strength, so Gao Buqin wanted him to use his overwhelming strength to deal with the situation.

"No need to worry about it and execute your orders," said Di Tian. He knew even if he used more than Dao Ancestor 5-Root power, and he might not succeed. However, the main reason for his refusal is that Wang Wei never revealed his true power.

Di Tian knew he would not do anything useless, so he must have had a purpose for hiding until now. After analyzing the battlefield situation, Di Tian deduced it was because of these people in the Northern Quadrant.

Wang Wei must be hiding and preparing to deal with them. And Di Tian agreed with this tactic because his intuition told him this was the best choice for him as well.

Gao Buqin bowed before executing his orders. He waved his hand to summon something from his space ring. So, a rock statue of a general dressed in battle armor appeared before him.

Boom!

A terrible aura emanated from the statue's body as it opened its eyes. The world turned red due to the immense killing intent and resentment from the statue.

'Is this the power of the Great Qin Dynasty's Terracotta Puppet,' thought Gao Buqin. In his world, no dynasty ever conquered the entire plane. So, he was also fascinated by the Great Qin Dynasty after reading about the Myriad Emperor World's history.

Additionally, he was intrigued by the designs of these puppets and tried to study them. He did learn plenty of things from them. However, he never discovered their core secrets or refining methods.

The Terracotta General gazed at Chen Chen's location before summoning his halberd. Then, it slashed at Cai Song's humongous puppet, stopping it from acquiring Chen Chen.

With his intervention, the clash turned to a standstill.

'So, what do you want with Chen Chen?' thought Di Tian. 'And to which length are you willing to get your hands on it?'

Di Tian observed all of Wang Wei's actions closely. If the latter shows too much desire, he will go to extreme lengths to stop him and even get his hands on Chen Chen himself.

Suddenly, Di Tian's face changed. Someone suddenly appeared next to Chen Chen. And with swift actions, he took him and the floating city away. Di Tian tried to stop the latter, but Wang Wei and his team stopped him.

His face became cold as he watched everything.

'So that's how it is.' He sighed internally. 'If my Sleepers were intact, I would never fall for such a simple plan.' Di Tian acknowledged his loss, and the main reason was his lack of information.

Eastern Quadrant:

Wang Wei saw Di Tian's Terracotta General, and he was not surprised. He knew the latter had some of the inheritance of the Great Qin Dynasty from the Sleeper's information network. However, he did not think it would be such a powerful puppet.

'Should I test the power of this general?' Wang Wei briefly mused over this idea before refusing. In the current situation, Chen Chen was the priority. So, he proceeded with his plan.

A few seconds later, someone teleported before him with a captured Chen Chen and half of the floating city.

"You did a good job," said Wang Wei. "I'm glad I can count on you."

"No, the pleasure is all mine; I"m glad I could provide value to our alliance," replied Wu Ming. Wang Wei looked at him and decided to talk with him and clarify things.

"Wait a while. I need to deal with something."

Wu Mong bowed before flying to a mountain a few kilometers away and waiting. Meanwhile, Wang Wei looked at Chen Chen, his eyes contained some sadness.

He felt Chen Chen's fate was innately miserable. If his theories are correct, Chen Chen's entire life was planned by his future self. Depending on the situation, his future self might have chosen Chen Chen as the best person to send the information to his past and change the timeline.

However, there is also the possibility that his future self even created Chen Chen for his goal, planning his existence even before his birth.

Either possibility makes Wang Wei think Chen Chen's fate was miserable. It made him think of his worst nightmare–he was like Chen Chen, his fate determined even before he was born.

Wang Wei exhaled deeply before summoning Cai Song.

"Sect Master," saluted the puppet genius, showing her gentle and joyous aura. Her long black hair floated in the hair, and her eyes contained a child-like innocence, most likely because of her origins as a toy Spirit Race.

Wang Wei nodded before becoming dazed. He had a rare moment of indecisiveness. The part of his character with a desire for absolute control wishes to leave a backhand on Cai Song to secretly control her in case she decides to betray him in the future.

After all, her role will be extremely important after acquiring Chen Chen's talent. And her decision of betrayal is enough to tip the balance of his war with Grand Dao.

On the other hand, his rational mind is telling him doing such a thing has a higher chance of leading to her betrayal. No matter what he used on her, it's not something he can hide from Grand Dao.

If the latter chooses to reveal the truth to Cai Song, this act might be the catalyst for her betrayal.

If Wang Wei were Grand Dao, he would see Cai Song as the perfect weakness to disintegrate the enemy from the inside.

'The best way to prevent her betrayal is by obtaining her loyalty while also ensuring she has ample benefit.'

Wang Wei understood that once a person's loyalty reaches a certain level, they would be willing to sacrifice their life for their leader. So, the best plan is to cultivate Cai Song's loyalty to such a level.

One of the ways to achieve this is through emotional connection, good treatment, and the sharing of benefits.

'Of course, I also need to prepare for the possibility of her betrayal.'

A rabbit has multiple hiding holes, and no one should place all their eggs in the same basket.

Finally, Wang Wei focused on Cai Song.

"I need you to absorb Chen Chen's ability," explained Wang Wei. "And before you do, you should understand that doing this will forever alter the course of your life.

"You will now be involved in something that will affect you for the rest of your cultivation journey, something that you cannot possibly fathom."

Cai Song frowned after hearing this. She was no longer the clueless Spirit Race that attended the sect's disciple recruiting out of curiosity. After cultivating to such a level, she was not stupid even though she had little experience.

And as one of the sect's few individuals who knew some of the secrets of the sect's master, her vision was higher than many people. As such, she took his warning seriously since she knew what kind of brilliant cultivator the sect master was.

"If I accept your proposal, will I have the opportunity to see the pinnacle of Puppetry?"

Cai Song has a few goals in her life. The first one is to revive Puppet Dao in the Myriad Dao World before doing the same for the entire lower dimension. She wanted to spread the benefits and wonders of Puppet Dao.

The second and main is to reach the pinnacle of Puppet Dao. Lastly, to create the ultimate puppet. She does not know what the ultimate puppet would be, but she is determined to spend her cultivation journey searching for that answer.

"Yes," replied Wang Wei. "This opportunity will show a brand new ideology of Puppet Dao."

"Then, I accept."

"I hope you won't regret your choice."

"I won't."

Wang Wei nodded before pointing his finger at her forehead. He linked Chen Chen's fate to her and gave her some of her power to allow her to swallow his fate and destiny, inheriting his talent and knowledge.

"Thank you, sect master," bowed Cai Song.

"Do your best; I have high hopes for you."

Wang Wei was not lying, as he was already planning the best way for Cai Song to become an Eternal Emperor. Her current self had little chance, so he needed to increase her talent, luck, and destiny.

And if he chooses the right time for her to prove the Dao, she has a chance of succeeding. Unfortunately, he won't see this day since he will long be gone.

'I need to remove Cai Song from the list of people to be trafficked–the upper dimension is too dangerous. Plus, I cannot risk someone discovering her talent,' he thought as he watched her leave.

After making a decision, Wang Wei did not immediately contact Wu Meng but contacted his team. He sent the remaining part of the floating city to Yan Liling before contacting Li Jun.

'You need to seduce Cai Song.'

'What?'
