Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

1155 Old Generation Grudge

"Wang Chang? What are you doing here?"

"Hehe, didn't expect this, did you?" Wang Chang chuckled and sneered. "Fate is an interesting thing, isn't it?"

Nine Suns frowned, "What do you want?" He suddenly noticed something. "Are you working with my unfilial son?"

"You can say that."

"So, you're here for revenge?" He sneered. "I can't believe the Dao Opening Sect was willing to sacrifice one of their Immortal Ancestors for you. I didn't think they would value a loser like yourself." The only way for Wang Chang to be here was for another immortal to bring him, but no sect should be willing to sacrifice an Immortal Venerable for a little Quasi-Emperor - especially not one who previously lost its battle.

Wang Chang ignored him and focused on Yang Guowei. "Release him, and it's probably best that you don't stay here for this." Although his grandson warned him the possibility of Yang Guowei's betrayal was small, Wang Chang did not want to take chances. After all, no matter the circumstances, he was about to kill Yang Guowei's father.

"Sir, can you do me a favor?"

Wang Chang frowned: "I'm listening."

"Can you preserve his soul?"

"So, you want to save him after all."

"Not all," Yang Guowei swiftly answered. "He did something to my mother, and the information is protected in his soul. I hoped to preserve it and ask his majesty to help me remove it."

"Is that so? I can do my best but won't make any promises." Wang Chang did not know how this battle would turn out, so it was not wise to promise to protect his enemy's soul. Fighting without the intention to kill could be detrimental to him in this fight, so he can only act based on the situation.

"That's all I ask for," Yang Guowei replied before bowing and disappearing. This small dungeon changed into a vast and vibrant world with a clear sky, clouds, shining suns, mountains, forests, and oceans. The overall seal was still present, but now the dungeon was a small world with extremely thick space to ensure a battle without any issues and to prevent some people from running away.

Nine Suns' chains dissipated, and he felt his power returning. His aura drastically increased, followed by his body releasing an intense heat.

"What's your relationship with my son?" Nine Suns, no, Yang Chen asked as he slowly stood up. He noticed how much respect his son displayed when addressing Wang Chang. Not to mention the person he called "majesty," Yang Chen could sense the fear and reverence in his son's voice.

"What do you think?"

Yang Chen's eyes furrowed. He planned to mold his son into a powerful Emperor so they could start an Emperor Clan. However, his wife's interference had made the boy soft, but it was alright as he believed he could bring out the cruelty from inside him, turning him into a powerful weapon for him to use. As long as he continued to use Yang Guowei's love for his mother, it was only a matter of time before his plan succeeded.

But now, it appeared that Wang Chang and someone else had also interfered, making the situation more complicated. He did not like that.

"Is that anger I'm sensing? It's unlike you."

"You don't even know the first thing about me," Yang Chen sneered. He was extremely low-key during his generation, almost invisible during most of the era. So, his light only shone brightly at the very last moment. He exhaled to calm down and properly assess his opponent.

'An Essence Emperor? And his fleshly body cultivation is on par with me?' Yang Chen had a calm expression but was fuming inside. When he proved the Dao, his strength was 18% Grand Dao Source, putting him near the top of First Class. Then, after ascending, spending more than 7.4 billion years, and getting rewards from the Undead Phoenix Temple, his cultivation reached 24% Grand Dao Source.

"The Dao Opening Sect treated you well. I can't fathom how much resources they've pumped into you to force you into this realm."

"Haha," Wang Chang laughed loudly. "I despise what you're trying to insinuate. However, that doesn't matter, as you'll soon know whether I've earned this strength." He calmly removed the upper part of his robe, showing his muscular torso. A faint golden hue emanated from Wang Chang's muscular body as his aura rapidly increased.

'This aura...it reminded me of records about Fiendgod. Did he learn some kind of Fiendgod Body Refining Technique?' His expression was severe as he prepared for this upcoming battle. He activated his [Awakening], manifesting nine small suns that floated behind his head in a semi-circular shape. Yang Chen looked like an exalted god of the sun.

Wang Chang rushed forward like a raging bull that saw the color red. A red fiery beam rushed toward him from one of the nine small suns; the beam was beyond fast, and the heat was enough to make the laws of physics seem like a silly child, but Wang Chang blocked it with one palm - and he did not stop his forwarding motion.

Yang Cheng reacted swiftly as he moved backward while the remaining eight small suns fired their own beam. Wang Chang blocked the attack with both palms, but nothing could reduce his desire to move forward. Yang Chen used the technique, [World's Sun], which took all the matter and energy in a universe as large as the Heaven Will World and converted them into flame.

Wang Chang calmly watched the sun condense in his path, and he did not bat an eye when that thing exploded. He survived the terrifying heat with only a few black burning spots on his skin that swiftly disappeared. Yang Cheng immediately tried to burn the space around him to teleport away and distance himself from his attacker.

However, Wang Chang took a step into the void to propel himself forward. His speed reached countless times that of infinity, appearing before his opponent as if he had teleported.

Bang!

Yang Chen crossed his arm to block. He even condensed a flame armor around his arms for defensive purposes, but that did not change much. The force behind that punch sent him crashing through a few mountains before stopping. Wang Chang should have taken advantage of this opportunity, but he stopped instead.

He looked at his fist for a moment before grinning. He's been wanting to do this for too long. To be exact, he's been waiting for millions of years. Wang Chang still remembered his fight. After suffering a devastating blow from Yang Chen's illusion and breaking his Dao Heart, he felt a terrifying sense of sorrow, followed by immense weakness.

With such a terrible Dao Heart, it was impossible for him to summon even 1% of his strength. Then, as he watched Yang Chen slaughter the few remaining people with himself behind the next one at any time, Wang Chang made the cowardly decision to run away and abandon the battle. Although he knew this was the sensible thing to do, Wang Chang always had some regret about his actions.

As such, he's always wanted the opportunity to repay Yang Chen for forcing him to make such a cowardly move by punching him extremely hard - preferably in the face.

Wang Chang suddenly laughed maniacally; his voice echoed in this sealed world as if he was an almighty god showing his presence to the world and a bunch of mortals. Wang Chang felt good - no, he felt great. He abandoned the Dao Path, using the special inner world his grandson had prepared for him to nourish his bloodline so that he could beat Yang Chen with his bare hand.

With such ample time, Yang Chen had long healed the slight cracking of his bones after that attack. However, his fury was evitable by his red eyes and fluctuating aura. The idea that someone whom he once considered a loser and coward was now on par with him was infuriating beyond words. He was the winner and Wang Chang the loser, but if he didn't do something, the situation might have been reversed.

"Aren't you happy too early?" Yang Chen said with a grave voice as he looked at Wang Chang, that was acting a little deranged.

"You couldn't possibly understand," Wang Chang replied, feeling the small crack remaining on his Dao Heart healed by a small margin. 'As expected, I will be utterly healed even if I lose this battle. My obsession is not victory but making up for the regrets of that fight. However, I should ensure victory to ensure a perfect recovery.''

Wang Chang activated all his powers and abilities, and his body released a strange energy or aura in the process.

"Primordial Law?" Yang Chan asked in shock, and he was correct. Wang Chang used the malleable [Void Law] from his bloodline to condense his own [Overlord Law] to fit his original Dao. Today, he will show it up in this battle.

"Come. Let's end the karma between us."
