Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor

Chapter 1516 Uncle Masterʼs Authority

As soon as he arrived, Wang Wei realized he couldnʼt sense Wu Hongʼs aura. ”Is she still with Maitreya? I guess Iʼll make myself comfortable before she returns,” he muttered. He was about to find their place to relax and wait when two people suddenly appeared before him.

”Who dares intrude on our continent?” a woman said.

”Do you know who you are offending?” said a man.

Wang Wei looked at them. ”Youʼre Song Luli and Song Jiang?”

”How do you know us?” Song Jiang asked.

”Oh, youʼre the one the master talked about,” his sister added.

”So, itʼs him.” Song Jiang looked at him up and down as if he were a predator scrutinizing its prey.

”Youʼre handsome enough, so I could understand why the master would like you, but why are you so young?” Song Luli asked.

”Plus, arenʼt you a little too weak to be the masterʼs husband?” Song Jiang asked.

Wang Wei was momentarily speechless. ”Love has no boundaries or limitations of age or cultivation level.”

”That sounds like something a pervert would say,” Song Luli said, baffling him even more.

”Are you a pervert?” Song Jiang asked.

”I think he is. Look at his eyes. Itʼs the eyes of someone who has some terrible thoughts in his mind,” Song Luli added.

”Do you think the Master knows? Maybe we should warn her?”

”Sheʼs usually good at discerning people. Maybe sheʼs been blinded by love.”

”We canʼt allow her to marry a pervert,” Song Jiang said.

”Donʼt worry, she will see him for who he is eventually. However, we canʼt meddle, or sheʼll think we are trying to hinder her happiness.”

”You have a point. But I feel bad how sheʼll be with a pervert for such a long time before he sees him for who he is.”

Song Luli sighed deeply, her voice full of melancholy. ”Even the master cannot escape the curse known as love. Donʼt worry, we will be beside her once the perv is gone.”

”Are you guys done?” Wang Wei asked, still baffled. Wu Hong warned him about the playful nature of her disciples, but this went beyond playful.

”What do you mean by done?” Song Luli asked. ”I–”

”Alright, itʼs my time now to speak,” Wang Wei raised his hand. ”First of all, you should address me as Uncle-Master.”

”What?”

”You must be out of your mind,” Song Jiang sneered.

”As your masterʼs future husband, isnʼt that my official title?” His words immediately made them speechless. He was right. ”Iʼm not a person who cares about hierarchy and status, so I couldnʼt care how you address me, but unfortunately, you offended me. So, go ahead, address me properly.”

Song Luli and Song Jiangʼs lips twitched. They glanced at each other before looking back at Wang Wei. Their eyes were firm, and their mouths even firmer.

”Rebels, arenʼt you? My favorite pastime is to break rebellions spirits,” Wang Wei chuckled as a bamboo stick slowly materialized on his palm. ”In my clan, there is this ancestral bamboo that can discipline all the members of the Wang Clan as long as itʼs in the ancestorʼs hands.

”The one in my hand is a projection and modified based on my status as your Uncle-Master. In other words, I can beat you up, and you can do nothing about it. Of course, I encourage you to resist so I can tell your master, and she can truly punish you.”

The twinʼs face changed. ”Is there a need for you to do this?” Song Luli asked.

”Uncle-Master, there is no need for such humiliation,” Song Jiang added.

”Traitor, why are you calling him that?” Song Luli snapped.

”Stupid. Do you really want to be beaten? We will never have the face to stand before him from now on.”

”What happened to our solidarity?” Song Luli sneered.

”Enough, my little nephews,” Wang Wei said. ”This beating is inevitable. However, Iʼll be more lenient toward you since you call me Uncle-Master.”

”T-Thank you,” Song Jiang said with a wry smile. Meanwhile, Song Luli stared at him as if her eyes were daggers.

”As for you? Well, the more rebellious you are, the more Iʼll enjoy myself.” Wang Wei rushed over, and the screams echoed in the room. The twins soon proved to be faster than he, but it didnʼt matter. The bamboo will hit its target as long as Wang Wei swings. Half an hour later, they knelt before Wang Wei with bruises on their faces.

”How dare you call me a pervert?” Wang Wei said. ”Even if itʼs true, but thatʼs something between me and your master and what we do behind closed doors.”

”Ew, donʼt speak about the master like that,” Song Luli said.

”You want some more?”

”N-No.”

”No, what?”

”No, Uncle-Master.”

”Thatʼs a good girl,” Wang Wei nodded. ”Iʼm a chill guy. My original plan was to be the fun Uncle-Master who secretly helps you when your master is too strict with you. But, look what youʼve made me do.”

”Itʼs all her fault,” Song Jiang said as he pointed at his sister without an ounce of shame.

”Spineless traitor,” Song Luli cursed. ”Iʼll never forget you for this. I wonʼt speak to you for the next 10,000 Yuan Epoch.”

”And Iʼm tired of being dragged into your shenanigans. And, 10,000 Yuan epoch is too long. Make it 1000.”

”No, it has to be at least 9000.”

”2000 is as far as I can accept.”

”How can you understand the severity of my anger with only 2000 Yuan Epoch? No, I wonʼt talk to you for at least 8000,” Song Luli countered.

”Alright, you guys are giving me a headache. I donʼt know how she can deal with you for so long,” Wang Wei said. ”Donʼt you have anything better to do?”

”We still have training to do, Uncle Master,” Song Jiang said.

”Weʼll get to it, U-Uncle Master,” Song Luli uttered, her voice almost a whisper with the last part. Wang Wei waved his hand to dismiss them, and the twins disappeared as if they were running away. However, he suddenly jumped as he sensed something.

”By the Fateʼs blessing, how long have you been here?” he asked as he held his heart.

”Long enough,” Wu Hong replied with a smile.

”You should have said something.” Wang Wei approached and kissed her before they sat in front of each other.

”These two have been with me for a long time, and I know their personalities. You did the right thing by establishing your authority,” Wu Hong nodded.

”You did a great job. If Iʼm not mistaken, they are only a breath away from becoming Primals. If nothing unexpected occurs, they should reach that level in the next few yuan epochs.”

”Thanks, but you also have some credit.”

”The Nourishing Core?”

”Yes, but also because you reminded me of the Absolute Killer,” Wu Hong explained. ”For the training, I recreated the Absolute Killerʼs reign of terror, sealed the twinsʼ memories, and forced them to fight for their lives against him.”

Wang Wei nodded. Life and death are consistently among the best forms of training, no matter the cultivation stage. ”I always wonder: would the Absolute Killer be as terrifying in our current era?”

”Oh, no,” Wu Hong replied. ”After his disappearance, Paragons came together and dissected his ability. They learned and improved from it, and I believe the first Primals appeared after that event. So, he would be nothing special unless he learned and adapted from modern techniques.”

”I figured as much,” Wang Wei nodded. Although it appeared the cultivation had remained stagnant with no improvement, thatʼs only on the surface. Skills and techniques have drastically improved from the old era, and a sign of this improvement is the number of primals and paragons that exist in the modern age.

”Once the twins become Primal, you can finally avenge your grievance,” Wang Wei smiled.

”Thatʼs right,” Wu Hong sneered. Her experience in the lower dimension forced her to develop a strong and prideful personality. Now, no one in the world can underestimate her. However, one of her sore spots was that everybody called her Origin Seal Continent the weakest Overlord because her second Primal is a puppet. However, once the twins become Primals, she can finally hold her head proudly and no longer be humiliated.

”Letʼs not talk about these brats. How was your talk with Maitreya?”

”It was good,” Wu Hong nodded. ”She sincerely apologized, and I stopped being hard-headed and accepted her apology. It was good to have my old friend back.”

Wang Wei looked at the smile plastered on her face, and his mood improved. ”Do you want to go to the beach?”

”Why all of a sudden?”

”I donʼt know, but I suddenly felt like experiencing a beach day.”

”Are you asking because you want to see me in a bikini?” Wu Hong stared at him.

”While that would be appreciated, I promise this time, my purpose is pure. I just want to spend some time at the beach with you.”

Wu Hong believed him. If that were his motive, he would have just stated it or asked directly. ”I donʼt see why not. Do you want to build one here or use the Grandmist Wheel?”
