Beginning Of Multiverse Saga-Chapter 424: Puppet Curse

The Golden Crow Crown Prince began to panic when he saw how the Fiend Emperor seemed to be chatting happily with Sharky. He said, "Father emperor, when my second brother sent assassins to kill me and you told me to forget about my grudges with him afterward, I had no problems with that. However, this guy is clearly my enemy, and he has tried to kill me several times. I suffered so much because of him! Is your respected self really going to let him go?"

The Fiend Emperor said indifferently, "You have disappointed me too much. You have only been concerned with fighting and have not given his identity any thought all this time. This one is the Duke of Cloudcenter Territory.

Later, because of Alina, he ran away from human territory and arrived here in the snake tribe.

Now he was a fugitive of the human race, and wanted by human territory. Even with this, he was still not killed by the Emperor Henry. How can someone like that be killed so easily?"

The Golden Crow Crown Prince stared at Sharky with wide eyes. He could never have expected Sharky was Duke before, and for a woman, he left behind everything.

At the same time, a hint of humiliation flashed across his face. A mere Duke of the human race had beaten him black and blue?!

Charlotte, Diana, and Alina looked at Sharky worriedly. They hadn’t expected the Fiend Emperor to have already investigated them so thoroughly. He really was too terrifying.

Meanwhile, Sharky was calm, saying, "The Fiend Emperor is unfathomable after all. No wonder you can face our human emperor as an equal."

"If this is all you have done, I didn’t care about it, but you have beaten my son, so no one can save you," the Fiend Emperor said. As soon as he spoke, he raised a finger, firing a streak of golden light at Sharky.

Sharky wanted to dodge, but he was locked in place by the Fiend Emperor’s pressure. Furthermore, earth immortals didn’t reveal any clues when they attacked, so how could he avoid it? He could only watch as the golden light entered the space between his brows.

The women were shocked. Alina and Charlotte quickly walked over to support Sharky.

Diana stared at the Fiend Emperor, exclaiming furiously, "What did you do to him?!"

"Worry not, he will not die. I just placed a Puppet Curse on him, so he can only listen to my orders for the rest of his life," the Fiend Emperor said indifferently.

"Puppet Curse!" Charlotte and Diana exclaimed, their expressions changing. At their cultivation rank, they naturally knew about the existence of that sinister technique.

It made the target unable to act independently or refuse the user’s orders. The worst part was that no one could undo the technique except for the one who used it!

Alina had just sighed in relief when she saw that Sharky seemed unaffected. But when she saw the two grandmasters’ reactions, she felt a weight in the pit of her stomach. Even though she didn’t know the exact details, she could guess how serious it was from their reactions.

Sharky’s expression also changed. He noticed that there seemed to be a faint golden diagram in his mind. It looked like a pair of terrifying eyes that were completely identical to the Fiend Emperor’s! However, the eyes were still closed. He didn’t know when the diagram would activate.

The Golden Crow Crown Prince finally revealed a smile when he saw that. Now that the Puppet Curse had been cast, wasn’t Sharky already like a fish on a chopping block?

Once the father emperor perishes, all of his cultivation will be mine. I can then just use this Puppet Curse to control him and make him offer up all his women to me!

Apart from the Elf Race’s Princess Snow, there is also the Medusa Queen!

After learning that the Medusa Queen was Sharky’s lover, and judging from their intimate expressions, he suspected that they had probably already been intimate.

However, the Medusa Queens were women that not even his father and the human emperor had been able to obtain, so that gave him a deep desire to conquer them.

I’m going to obtain something not even my father could get!

The Medusa Queen was someone only the strong deserved!

I’ll keep this Sharky on one side and let him watch as I subdue and wantonly toy with his women. Only then can I vent my anger, hahahaha!

Just then, the Fiend Emperor looked at Wendy, saying, "I sense that the surrounding spatial force seems to have stabilized. Bring us to the entrance of the Unknown Region. Everyone else is to follow along."

No matter how confident he was, he still had to act cautiously when he recalled the rumors surrounding the unknown regions. It would be best to use Sharky’s group as cannon fodder to test the waters.

Wendy nodded, even though he had his guesses, he wasn’t that certain. Ad such, he took out a divining wheel and began to fiddle with it. He checked it while leading the way.

The Fiend Emperor gestured for the others to follow along. As for Charlotte, Diana, and Alina, he didn’t place any restrictions on them.

However, Sharky was the one he couldn’t see through. Even though Sharky had defeated the crown prince several times before, the crown prince was still the crown prince, after all.

Sharky’s cultivation clearly wasn’t high, but the Fiend Emperor got a vague sense of threat from him.

He didn’t know how someone who had just reached the master form could give him, an earth immortal, a feeling of danger, but he wasn’t the negligent type. As such, he had planted the Puppet Curse in Sharky’s body to guard against him just in case.

The three women moved over to Sharky’s side, their faces full of worry as they asked, "What do we do?"

Sharky gave the Fiend Emperor’s back a look, saying, "We’ll just follow him into the Unknown Region."

The women were shocked by his composure. They hadn’t seen any hope at all in their situation and had been about to lose their heads, but they were soon infected by his confidence. They also gradually calmed down. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Diana even started to feel admiration for him. This kind of heroic temperament really was hard to find in this world! The man Honglei had chosen was quite excellent after all.

Charlotte’s expression also became a bit absentminded when she looked at Sharky, her true thoughts indiscernible. Suddenly, a faint blush appeared on her face and she quickly looked away to hide it.

---

The Fiend Emperor said, "Sect Master Diana, I heard that you fought against Henry not too long ago?"

Even though Diana was normally incredibly arrogant and often boasted in front of Charlotte, she felt her face heat up a bit in embarrassment now that a true earth immortal had asked her that. She said, "Calling it an exchange would be overestimating myself. Henry didn’t even show up in person, and injured me with a single move from far away..."

The Golden Crow Crown Prince curled his lips. This Devil Sect Leader always struts around as if she’s hot stuff, but it turns out she wasn’t even all that.

Up ahead, Wendy clicked his tongue inwardly. He thought, No wonder I always felt that this woman was a bit too fierce. So she had this kind of experience! He felt even more admiration for Sharky.

Not only did the Fiend Emperor not show her disdain, however, his voice was full of praise as he said, "To be able to preserve your life against Henry’s attack is something Sect Master Diana can take pride in."

The Golden Crow Crown Prince didn’t agree with his father’s response. He just assumed his father was being courteous. You can’t even take on a single move! What’s so amazing about that?

He was known as the fiend races’ younger generation’s number one. His cultivation had always been in competition with the generation before him.

He was also the publicly acknowledged next Fiend Emperor, which was why his ambitions had always been extremely high. Apart from losing a few times to Sharky, he was confident he could win against anyone else.

The Fiend Emperor then asked Diana about the details of the battle. Diana frowned slightly. She knew that the Fiend Emperor wanted to take the chance to estimate Henry’s current strength.

She told the other party exactly what had happened.

The Fiend Emperor listened extremely carefully, even interrupting her a few times to ask her about some details along the way. After listening to the story, he remained quiet for a bit. Then, he finally said with a sigh, "Henry’s cultivation has made quite a bit of progress since we last met so many years ago"

The Golden Crow Crown Prince was shocked. Why did it sound as if his father had lost confidence? Could it be that he was already admitting he couldn’t defeat the human emperor?

The Fiend Emperor released a long sigh, saying, "Unfortunately, no one can triumph over time. I might not have a chance of fighting against Henry again in this life."

His tone conveyed the sense of a hero past his prime. Even though they were enemies, Charlotte and Diana were both grandmasters. They could sense an air of loneliness in his voice.

"Father emperor is still in your prime; you will definitely be able to live a long time!" the Golden Crow Crown Prince quickly exclaimed in praise.

"Do you truly wish for me to live for a long time?" the Fiend Emperor asked, looking at him with an ambiguous smile.

The Golden Crow Crown Prince jumped in fright. He replied, "What is the father emperor saying? Your respected self has treated me so well; of course I wish for your respected self to live longer. The longer the better!"

The Fiend Emperor remained silent for a while. Ever since ancient times, not only were the emperor and the crown prince father and son, ruler and minister; they also had a competitive relationship. The crown prince had to be competent enough to take over ruling the nation, but the emperor couldn’t have his position threatened ahead of time. That had always led to a huge question that needed to be heavily considered. As such, the relationship between the emperor and crown prince had never been particularly great in previous dynasties.

However, he and his son had been an exception. The first reason was that his own cultivation was too high, so the crown prince had always been deferential; the second reason was that he was too old, and had already experienced signs of heaven and earth deterioration. That was why there had been no need for them to compete against each other.

If he obtained the method of immortality from an Unknown Region, however, their relationship would definitely become different from before.

The Golden Crow Crown Prince was extremely nervous too. It wasn’t guaranteed that the Unknown Region would contain a method of immortality. If he ended up offending his father badly, and the imperial throne ended up being given to his younger brother, that would be terrible.

The atmosphere had turned strange. Fortunately, Wendy called out just then, "I... found the entrance."

The party arrived at a large pool of water.

"It should be underwater!" Wendy quickly added when he saw the Fiend Emperor frown.

Sharky asked in confusion, "Are you sure it’s here? We looked around underwater earlier."

"That was earlier. It’s different now," Wendy said. "After the strange changes that took place, the layout of the Imperial Tomb has changed somewhat. It isn’t too surprising for the entrance of an Unknown Region to appear underwater. There have been many tombs that were built through similar mechanisms. It’s just that no one has been able to go to these lengths before."
