Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Chapter 1353: Five Feathers' Ambitions



Unedited Chapter.

Five Feathers opened her eyes in a secret room and spewed a large mouthful of blood. Her aura became chaotic before dramatically reducing. She swiftly swallowed a handful of pills, trying to manage the situation. However, the situation worsened in a matter of seconds. Five Feathers' face turned purple, followed by massive pimples with pus manifesting.

Her face contorted in pain. It was the worst time for the curse to act up, but it was expected, given her weakened state. She no longer hesitated to swallow a few more rare pills. It took her more than ten minutes to stabilize her situation.

She cultivated for over two hours before appeasing her injury and suppressing that curse. Five Feathers then swiftly checked her face and sighed in relief once she discovered it was back to normal.

"Damn that woman," she roared. She was already in a bad state, and losing that clone further aggravated the injury. "I want to rip her eyes off," Five Feather cursed, but as soon as she uttered those words, she remembered that sword attack. Her body and soul trembled as a deep fear rushed down her spine.

That attack returned her to the era where she was ordinary, where she had to struggle for her survival. The helplessness of being powerless almost drove Five Feathers crazy.

"No, this can't go on. I must do something," Five Feather yelled. Her survival instinct kicked in, and she wanted to survive this ordeal at all times. Simultaneously, it also awakened the ambition in her heart. Five Feather took a deep breath: "That woman was right. I'm too weak. My next goal should be to break this curse. Once I'm at my peak, I can use all the resources to increase my strength."

Five Feathers analyzed this plan and felt nothing wrong with it. In her youth, she was ambitious and willing to do anything for strength and power. However, she lost that side of her after obtaining power. That sword strike awakened her, making the little phoenix realize her mistake.

'No one in the world can cultivate, but we should be the exception, right? After all, we have completely surrendered to the Lord. If he wants us to keep helping him, he should allow us to increase our strength in dealing with the current situation.'

Five Feathers felt there was nothing wrong with this plan except for one thing: 'This damn curse.' She pondered briefly before waving her hand to activate a technique.

Five Element Phoenix Palace, Throne Room:

All of Five Feathers' subordinates were waiting, and a few minutes later, her projection appeared on the throne. She had never left her secret room since that injury, and the best formation of the palace protected that room.

"Well?" she asked, but no one answered. On the contrary, most people lowered their heads, fearing she would pay attention to them. "Say something!" she yelled. The hall was still quiet. "Dark Phoenix? Isn't this your main job?"

"Reporting, Lord," said a beautiful woman dressed in tight all-black robes and a phoenix mark on her forehead. "There is no news about the Putrid White Leaf."

"That's what you have to report?" Five Feathers asked, not hiding her killing intent. The Putried White Leaf is a rare Supreme Chaos Herb that is born by gathering the most evil and negative qi between Heaven and Earth, then, through Ying-Yang Laws, revert into the purest substance between Heaven and Earth. It is one of the best treasures for dealing with curses.

"I'm sorry, Lord," Dark Phoenix answered with her head lowered. "We could not find it in our territory, and before your return, we had to reduce our forces and influences on the outside to prevent losses."

"All I'm hearing are excuses."

Dark Phoenix felt wronged. She was telling the truth, but her boss was unreasonable today. It also did not help that a few million yuan epochs ago, she used the territory only Putrid White Leaf had for a minor curse that she could have eradicated with little effort and a retreat of less than a hundred thousand years.

The Lord has always been willful and wasteful, but did she finally realize the consequences of her actions? Dark Phoenix doesn't believe it. 'Did fate finally abandon us?' she thought. 'I knew this day was coming, but I did not expect it to come so fast.'

Five Feathers became quiet on the throne, her aura suppressing everyone present. She was thinking of a solution. Killing herself was no longer an option, and she lost one life to learn this truth. She only had two left and did not want to waste them.

'Can I transfer it to someone else?' she thought, focusing on the people in the room. Everyone felt a chill down their spine but dared not react or make a sound. 'No, this curse is too overbearing and won't separate from me so easily. Plus, these people are too weak, and a small part is enough to kill all of them.'

She thought of countless methods, but none of them were feasible. These failed attempts irate her even more, so she slammed the armrest on the throne. Her fluctuating emotions suddenly made the projection unstable until it dispersed. Back in the room, Five Feather's curse became active a second time; she hurriedly summoned a flame from her palm and absorbed it into her heart.

She removed it thirty seconds later, and her body had stabilized. However, the original bright flame had turned dark. Five Feathers was about to extinguish it when she thought of something

someone, to be exact.

'Maybe I can use that ceremony to heal myself,' she thought. In her life, Five Feathers has never been close or intimate with one man - the Undead Phoenix. Back then, he was a rising star from the lower dimension, and she was an above-average disciple from the Phoenix Clan. Although her bloodline was unique, it did not change the fact her talent was ordinary. However, Five Feather was ambitious; she wanted power, strength, and the adoration of all myriad races. At first, she had no chance until she found that Witchcraft Inheritance involved techniques about curses, Gus, poisons, and ceremonies. Without hesitation, she set her eyes on the young Undead Phoenix.

She knew her chances were slim, so she spent all her resources cultivating a Love Fate Gu. With its help, she was about to have "accidental" meetings with Undead Phoenix and develop their feelings. Then, once the latter was head over hills in love with her, Five Feathers had the opportunity to knock him out and used the [Origin Supplement Ceremony].

By taking Undead Phoenix's [Origin], she could take away his talent and luck. It was this method that allowed her to enter the Paragon Realm.

Five Feathers could not help but reminisce. That ceremony was the beginning of everything. It brought her unparalleled glory. After that, she became the genius of the Phoenix Clan, who was loved and praised by all the elders and envied by her peers. Meanwhile, no one cared about Undead Phoenix since he was only a poor, loose cultivator from the lower dimension. Without his talent, no one gave him a second look.

Unfortunately, Five Feather's prosperity did not last long. After becoming a Paragon, she realized the negative effect of the ceremony. She had no more potential, meaning 90% Grand Dao Source was the limit of her strength for the rest of her life.

Once people realized this, she became a laughingstock. The elders who were enthusiastic about her now only gave the minimum respect of a Paragon. But even that did not last long once people realized she was the weakest of Paragons.

Five Feathers had to watch her juniors catch up to her before surpassing her. They did not do it quietly and humiliated her whenever they had an opportunity. After suffering so long, she had long thought of just ending everything. Then, Time Eater came to her with an offer she could

not resist.

She accepted it without hesitation. Despite knowing the consequences, despite knowing she was only a pawn, despite the fact her "ex" was part of this group as a means to balance her -

she accepted it.

'I haven't studied that inheritance for a while, but there might be a way for me to transfer some of the curses to Underd Phoenix,' Five Feathers thought. There is a deep and unbreakable karmic bond between them, so her plan is feasible. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this plan was possible.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Hmm? Is there some kind of news?"

...

"Dark Phoenix, what is it?" Five Feather asked as she condensed another projection.

"We just received news," Dark Phoenix replied before stopping.

"Don't waste my time and let it out."

"Someone has an antidote for your curse."

"What did you say? This is not the time for you to be talking nonsense." Five Feather released

a terrifying killing intent. These servants knew this time, their master was not playing around. If Dark Phoenix does not choose her words wisely, she will not walk out of this room.

"It's the Undead Phoenix," she hurriedly said. "He announced publicly that he had a cure." The room was eerily silent. Five Feathers' first reaction was this was a blatant lie. However, she remembered something, and her face turned ugly. "Damn you!" she roared.
