Chapter 268: Tai You, the So-Called Calamity

```

As his cultivation grew stronger and his age increased, Fang Wang became increasingly aware of the influence of the Hongxuan Emperor's fate.

Over the years, he encountered more and more chances, and although it was related to his fame, fate also influenced destiny in subtle ways.

The Sword Intent of the Night Monarch had doubled Fang Wang's own Sword Intent—after all, the Night Monarch was a Great Cultivator of the Sky-Stepping Realm, and even in his twilight years, his Sword Intent remained vast and powerful.

Fang Wang stood on the bridge, staring at the scenery of the Underworld, lost in thought.

His gaze gradually shifted upward, to watch the shadow of an old woman meditating by the stream in the Underworld. She was dressed in a wide and tattered grey robe. Two bamboo sticks held her white hair up behind her head. Her back was hunched, and she appeared aged and decrepit.
