Chapter 1497 1497: Luring
On the one hand, everyone stepped inside the maze of death from the White Tiger Clan, while on the other hand, there was a group of three which came out of a portal in a different part of the world.
The Demon Princess arrived in the land of the Black Tortoise Clan, appearing far away from the main city.
As the main city had more defenses, it was hard to teleport there without being caught. On the other hand, this place was comparatively easier, even though it was also going to alert the guards.
âLetâs get going. We need to go as far away from this place as possible for now, before the guards arrive.â The woman informed Long Chen as she started rising in the air.
âWait!â Long Chen called out, stopping her.
The woman stopped and glanced back at Long Chen. âWhat? Do you want to die here?â
âWhy would I want that? What Iâm saying is that we donât need to run.â Long Chen smiled.
âWhy not? Do you want us to be caught? Either you come with me, or Iâll kill you, extract your memories and go alone. You decide!â
âThis girl⊠She certainly has a nice temper. But she doesnât know that the real Long Chen isnât here. If she finds out before I tell her, sheâs going to kill me. But I also canât let her live in her illusion and delay my main mission. I need to handle this with care.â
Long Chen looked up at the woman. âAs soon as I stepped on this land, I received a new batch of memoriesâŠâ Long Chen answered. âThe memories of that guy. Thatâs why Iâm saying we donât need to run.â
âWhat memories?â The woman frowned.
âApparently, he isnât here. He is in the White Tiger Realm now,â Long Chen answered.
âYou!!! Why didnât you tell me before? We came here for no reason! We canât even go back before time! You wasted my time!â The woman was so enraged that her aura was pushing down on Long Chen.
Long Chen struggled really hard to stay standing just because he didnât want to fall to his knees before the lady he wanted for himself.
âMy lady, itâs not my fault! As we arenât the same person, the memories arenât shared instantly. I only share a soul fragment with him, so I get his memories late! I just got them as I came here. Itâs not just you who didnât know, but I didnât know either. However, you donât need to worry about anything. Maybe thatâs for the good as well!â Long Chen exclaimed.
âFor the good? What do you mean?â The lady asked, frowning. âHow is this for the good? Literally, so much of my time is wasted because of you!â
âMy lady, you donât realize how important this is for us. Now that the real guy isnât here, I can pretend to be him! He is the guest of the Black Tortoise Clan. If I pretend to be him and make up a story, theyâll treat us like guests as well. Moreover, that manâs family is there. If we can win them over, we would have an easier time catching him!â he further added.
âMoreover, I donât believe this will cost us too much time. So what if we canât go back the way we came here? Once we are the guests of the Black Tortoise Clan, we can use their resources to go to the White Tiger Realm behind the real guy! With their support, the blame wonât come on the Demons either!â
âMoreover, this way, we can also win the support of the Black Tortoise Clan, heir to the Demons. If I took the real oneâs place, I could turn the game of the Heavenly Emperor upside down! Instead of the real Long Chen turning them toward the Heaven, we can turn them in your direction! As I said, this is an advantage which we are really lucky to receive!â
The more Long Chen talked, the more he succeeded in convincing the Demon Princess. The plan was certainly not bad. This could really help them. But she still had some doubts.
âWhy would they believe whatever you say? The Black Tortoise heir canât be that stupid to believe anything. Wonât he know where real Long Chen went? He would catch you in an instant!â
âNo, actually, he canât!â Long Chen smiled. âThere has been an accident. He lost the real Long Chen in an ancient temple in another realm, and now he canât go there. Even he doesnât know that the real Long Chen is in the White Tiger Realm, weakened and trapped there.â
âI just need to make up a story about how I escaped that temple which led me to a place where I met you. And you being a kind lady, helped me return here. Zhu Chang wonât find out even in his dreams!â
The Demon Princess lost herself in thoughts as she frowned. Ultimately, she decided to go with the plan. Even though it was risky, but the advantages of succeeding were also too much. Moreover, so far, she hadnât committed any wrongs by coming here.
If she lets herself get arrested right here and doesnât do anything, the Black Tortoise Clan wasnât going to treat her as an enemy. She could just say she was here to bring someone who claimed to be from this place. She was ultimately free of responsibility even if she was caught.
She could see the benefits and rarely any flaws for her. It was certainly not a bad plan.
âIf this plan works, we will heavily reward you when we go back,â She said calmly.
âWhat rewards?â Long Chen inquired.
âRewards that will make you very happy. Treasures that are so precious that humans will happily die for them!â The woman answered.
âWhat if I donât want the treasures?â Long Chen asked. âWhat if I want something else?â
âWhat else could you want? As long as we can afford it, youâll get it! And there are rarely things we canât afford. Youâll get whatever you desire!â The Princess promised.
âIâll get whatever I want? Thatâs good to know.â Long Chen smiled. So far, all that was left was to impress the lady even more and win her heart then the world was going to belong to him!
Just as the Demon Princess had expected, the God Beast Clan guards noticed someone infiltrating. It had only been a few seconds, and the Demon Princess could see some people flying towards them, each having a powerful aura.
Seeing them arrive, Long Chen hastily swallowed a black pill.
