You will be needing a rooted android for this.

If you want to view your saved WiFi password in your Android phone without using any apps, follow these steps:

Using your file explorer navigate to /data/wifi or /data/misc/wifi. This directory varies by device. Just know that you are looking for a folder named "wifi" (or for easy approach direct search for wpa_supplicant.conf).
Once you are inside the directory, open the file wpa_supplicant.conf with a text viewer.

You will find all your saved passwords inside that file. Password will be stored as:

network={
    ssid="WiFiName"
    psk="password"
    key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
    priority=1
}

Note that this requires your device to be rooted. Good Luck!

First off, you usually need a rooted device. Secondly, you can find the info usually in /data/misc/wifi/wpa-supplicant.conf. You can use cat via adb shell to get to this, or read it in an Android text editor of your choice.

What you will have to do is go to Chrome, type in the IP address of the router and proceed to your WLAN settings. This will yield the WiFi password.
