Beginning Of Multiverse Saga-Chapter 461: Edit From Unknown Region
Each of them bounced ideas off the other, speaking about all sorts of possibilities.
While the others were trying to find a way out, Sharky had already made up his mind. He had no intention of leaving things unfinished.
The Second Empress’s promise still echoed in his mind— "If you can withstand it, the Fiend Throne shall be yours."
He hadn’t told anyone about it. Not Charlotte, not Diana, not even Alina.
Becoming the Fiend Emperor... it wasn’t just a title to him anymore; it was the key to controlling this chaotic world, and then take the revenge for his family.
"If those options don’t work, what is Sharky supposed to do?" Alina asked worriedly. When she thought about the situation her lover would have to face once they left, her heart began to beat nervously.
Diana replied with a smile, "Isn’t that easy enough? You’re all losing your heads with worry..."
Before she could finish, Diana suddenly cried out in alarm. "Oh no, that exit might close soon!"
Perhaps because the nuclear explosion was too powerful, the entire world’s spatial elements had become extremely unstable.
The vortex that served as their only exit began to twist violently, showing signs of collapse.
All those present shivered. If the exit closed, they would be trapped here forever! Though this place overflowed with ki, they all had people, responsibilities, and unfinished paths waiting beyond.
And worse—no one knew if this world would even remain intact once the passage sealed completely.
"Move!" Charlotte shouted.
Whoosh!
They all sprinted toward the spatial vortex with everything they had.
Sharky didn’t have enough strength left to recreate the Golden War Chariot. Instead, he summoned the Wind Fire Wheels, flames swirling beneath his feet. In one motion, he lifted the three women—Alina on his back, Charlotte under one arm, Diana under the other—and shot forward like a comet.
He had the human race’s number one beauty on his back, the Devil Sect Master in his left arm, and the White Jade Sect Master in his right. Yet none of them seemed the least bit embarrassed; they clung to him naturally, as if this chaotic flight through collapsing space were an ordinary occurrence.
For a man to have a woman in each arm was already enough to draw envy, but three? And every one of them was an extraordinary beauty—empresses of their own realms, not courtesans of any kind.
As the space behind them cracked and thundered like shattering glass, Sharky glanced back once, his eyes glinting gold. The Fiend Throne... he thought. Wait for me.
Then, without looking back again, he vanished into the light of the closing vortex.
The next moment, the group emerged from the spatial vortex, and they quickly looked around. When they saw the familiar giant Fiend Ancestor statue before them, they knew they had finally returned to the Fiend races’ Imperial Tomb.
They sighed in relief. They were finally back! They had been worried that they would be trapped in that world forever.
Charlotte quietly left Sharky’s arms. She looked around and said with a sigh, "I thought we would reappear in that pool we first entered from, but we actually appeared here. It is good that there are no Fiend Race guards around, or else it would have been a bit troublesome."
Diana taunts her by saying, "This place is a restricted area. Normally, only the emperor and crown prince have the right to enter. Of course there are no guards assigned here."
Sharky said, "There’s a huge army standing guard outside of the Imperial Tomb. All of you should take some time to stabilize your condition here. Then, we can figure out a way to leave."
He had just spread out his spiritual senses. Even though there was no one in the tomb, the exterior would no doubt be heavily guarded.
Leaving without anyone noticing would be difficult, so there would definitely be conflict.
The three women nodded. They brought out various pills to take, then sat down in place to stabilize their condition.
Sharky stood guard nearby to watch the surroundings. He had to admit that even though he couldn’t see their beautiful eyes anymore because they were meditating, it didn’t take anything away from their beauty.
Alina was as gorgeous as a rose. Even more valuable than her beauty was the gentle and peaceful aura that surrounded her, which could make anyone who saw her feel a sense of intimacy. No wonder she had left so many men infatuated.
Diana wasn’t surrounded by her usual killing intent. Now, it was replaced with a poised and elegant demeanor. She was like a newly blossomed peony... Ah, her chest is really big.
Charlotte’s pure and flawless face was like a freshly cooked egg, to the point that one could hardly help wanting to take a bite. Hm? Why is her face a bit red? The hint of pink makes it look even more appetizing.
Charlotte’s long eyelashes trembled gently. Her thoughts didn’t seem to be very peaceful.
Sharky thought, She’s known for her Unshakable Daoist skill and normally cares about tranquility of mind more than anything. Why does she seem to be the most uneasy of the three?
Charlotte suddenly opened her eyes. She stared at Sharky in annoyance and protested through ki transmission, "Stop staring at me!"
Sharky smiled and replied, "It’s your fault for being so pretty."
Charlotte bit her lip, feeling that there was nothing she could do about Sharky’s mischief. She could only close her eyes again and try to ignore him.
"Alright, alright, I won’t look at you then, okay? You should get some good rest," Sharky replied. In truth, he knew that the White Jade Sect’s cultivation method was special.
It would be bad if he ended up messing with her to the point that she began to vomit blood. He started waiting for them.
Charlotte felt warm inside when she heard the concern in his voice. However, she quickly gathered her thoughts and didn’t let herself get distracted anymore.
Just like that, some time passed. Eventually, some activity began happening nearby. Diana was the first to wake up. Charlotte was a bit slower due to her prior exchange with Sharky.
Meanwhile, Alina had the lowest cultivation, so she woke up last. But she had the Holy Pearl, so she wasn’t that much slower than the two grandmasters.
"The two of you have recovered completely!" Sharky exclaimed, feeling surprised and happy. They had been much faster than he expected.
"No, we haven’t recovered completely, but it was at least enough for us to protect ourselves now," Diana replied proudly. At the grandmaster rank, the power they could channel was nearly endless, so they could recover quickly.
It was just that they had never expected Sharky to be like an insatiable wolf cub, crazily devouring their energies to the point that they were completely drained of strength.
Sharky explained the situation outside. The Golden Crow Crown Prince had clearly made special arrangements, because there were three layers of armies inside the tomb and three layers outside.
The ones who led them were old acquaintances: Grand Secretary Ellis and Left Guard General Ma Tian.
The former was a firm supporter of the crown prince’s faction, while the latter was the Fiend Emperor’s trusted aide. Both sides wanted information from the Imperial Tomb as quickly as possible.
"This level of security will really make it a bit annoying for us to get out," Sharky said with a frown.
He could change his appearance, but the three women couldn’t. The uniforms the Second Empress had given him had already been destroyed, too. Furthermore, even if they still had the uniforms, there were just too many guards outside. If a few guards suddenly came out, their stories wouldn’t match up.
"Why do we have to sneak out?" Diana replied with a strange expression. Sharky was stunned, not quite understanding her point.
Diana continued, "The Fiend Emperor has already died. Aren’t we powerful grandmasters? How would these people outside be able to stop us? Is there any reason to be all sneaky?"
Sharky couldn’t help but laugh. Right; now that there was no earth immortal stopping them, the old freaks from the Fiend King Court wouldn’t stick around as guards all day either. Couldn’t the group just do whatever they wanted?
The army did have formations and all sorts of large-scale magic weapons to deal with higher level cultivators, so the group could end up suffering a bit if they faced such things head-on.
However, as long as they weren’t trapped in a formation, even an army would have no way of stopping cultivators like them from leaving at all.

Meanwhile, outside the Imperial Tomb, Ellis patrolled the surroundings with a group of people.
Considering his identity, he actually didn’t need to get involved personally. However, the current situation was just too important.
His nephew, the Golden Crow Crown Prince, had personally entrusted him with the task of keeping an eye on the tomb.
He also had his own worries, so he continued to patrol the surroundings waiting for news from the Fiend Emperor.
Sigh. I really didn’t expect the Fiend Emperor to have set his eyes on that old woman back home. Still, she does have some good points.
What do I do if the Fiend Emperor comes out and mentions that? Should I just play dumb, or should I warn him to take care of his health?
Both choices would make me seem like an idiot.
Suddenly, a soldier approached Ellis on horseback. He was startled, recognizing that it was a special messenger who worked for the crown prince.
Usually, only the most urgent tasks would be handed to such messengers. Thus, he quickly greeted the messenger and sent all the people around him away in order to receive the news alone.
The messenger took out a letter sealed in flame lacquer. Such lacquer was special; unless the appropriate tool was used to open it, it would explode and destroy the contents inside.
Even if one’s cultivation was high, it would be impossible to prevent that. The technique was used to pass on information that required absolute military secrecy.
Ellis opened the flame lacquer. When he saw the contents of the message, his eyes narrowed. His expression changed greatly. He ran quickly to call over his subordinates, ordering them, "Follow me back to the Fiend King Court!"
The others asked doubtfully, "So we don’t have to wait to receive the Fiend Emperor anymore? What if the Fiend Emperor ends up blaming us..."
"Like hell..." Ellis almost blurted out, but he caught himself in the nick of time. He said, "That’s not something you need to worry about. I know what’s really important. We’re going back first!"
Sensing his anger, the others didn’t dare to ask any more questions. As such, Ellis commanded his own troops to ride back to the Fiend King Court.
Meanwhile, Left Guard General noticed what had happened. He frowned, wondering, "What in the world are they up to?"
He was just about to send someone to investigate when he also received a message from the crown prince. When he saw the contents, his expression also changed drastically to one of hesitation and inner conflict.
A while later, he finally made up his mind. He put on his armor and mounted his horse. Then, he called over a trusted deputy officer and said, "Stay here with some of the men. If the Fiend Emperor comes out, contact me immediately."
Then, he left quickly with his remaining subordinates, just like Ellis.
Many of the soldiers were startled by the sound of hoofbeats in the middle of the night. They all looked at each other in dismay. Even though they didn’t know what had happened, it was clearly a major event
When Sharky’s group emerged from the Imperial Tomb and saw that the number of soldiers outside seemed to have decreased by half, they were also stunned.
