Chapter 1517:
Zhu Chang blocked the path of the Demon Princess, believing she was going to attempt another escape.
The Demon Princess wanted to teleport to Long Chenâs family since this was the only way to control the others here, but she realized that she couldnât teleport. Moreover, she also couldnât run to the family members with the Black Tortoise King present there.
She knew this place had failed. It was spoiled before it could even begin. Instead of sticking with the dead plan, she decided to escape. It was better than being caught and being used as a hostage. Moreover, only one person was blocking the exit⊠Zhu Chang.
Even though Zhu Chang was the son of the Black Tortoise King, the Demon Princess was also the daughter of the Demon Emperor, who wasnât weak in any sense. She had never fought Zhu Chang, but she believed not only could she face him, but she could also defeat him.
Moreover, defeating him was much easier than going against a God Beast King.
She swiftly turned around like Lightning and let out a kick that landed straight on the chest of the young man.
Zhu Chang also reacted fast and brought both his arms together to block the kick.
He had safely blocked the attack, yet he was pushed back a few steps just from the impact of the kick itself. âYouâll have to do better than that, Princess.â
âHow about I chimed in as well?â
Zhu Chang was distracted by the Demon Princess when he heard the coarse voice of Long Chen. A blinding light flashed, forcing Zhu Chang to close his eyes.
At the same time, Zhu Changâs figure appeared before him, holding a beautiful Dark Sword.
Zhu Chang didnât open his eyes yet just to be safe; he cast his own barrier.
The Sword clashed with the barrier, unable to break through.
The Old man didnât interfere in the battle even though his son was fighting two people. It was his son, and he had faith in the young man.
A barrier also seems to appear around the pupils of Zhu Chang, which protected his eyes from the light and other such obstructions.
âYou started it, but Iâll finish it!â Zhu Chang grabbed Long Chen by the collar and tossed him out the house before following after him.
For some reason, Long Jun and everyone in the house felt uneasy as they saw Long Chen fight Zhu Chang.
âAre you sure he isnât the real Long Chen?â Long Jun asked the Snake Monarch.
âThis daddy is sure that he is an impersonator!â Snake Monarch exclaimed out loud. âDonât worry about him. Let him be beaten, and heâll accept on his own.â
Zhiqing agreed with the Snake Monarch. She was sure this guy wasnât Long Chen just from his gaze itself. âHe isnât Long Chen. And if he were, he wouldnât have attacked his friend Zhu Chang for no reason at all.â
âThat does make sense, but still⊠Even though heâs an impersonator, he still has the same face as Chenâer. Itâs not easy to not worry about him.â Long Jun sighed.
âReal Long Chen is safe as well. We will bring him back! These people will lead us to him!â The Patriarch chimed in. âBut before that, can we talk about the thing we asked before we were disturbed?â
âYou mean the God Core?â Long Jun let out. âI honestly donât know anything about it. Iâve never heard Chenâer mention it. Moreover, he didnât leave anything with us. He keeps all his treasures with him. At most, he shares some weapons with us and some fighting skills, but nothing that can be called Godly Core.â
âYeah. I didnât hear him mention that either. If he had it, he certainly wouldnât give it to us.â
One after another, everyone from Long Chenâs family came clean that they never heard of anything like that and didnât see something that could fit the description.
The Black Tortoise King also couldnât detect any lies in their words, just based on the expressions itself. However, he also knew that if they actually had the God Core, it would make sense for them to lie about it to keep it safe. Still, he just couldnât accuse them.
The only way for him to get an answer was if he were to imprison them and Torture them, but if later it turned out that they were indeed telling the truth, then it was going to be a disaster.
He turned to the Immortal Queen. âYou claimed his family had the God Core. They claim they donât. One side is clearly lying.â
âIâm not lying. But itâs also possible that they donât have the God Core. As I told you before, the memories we managed to retrieve were fragmented. We saw him having the God Core when he arrived here. Then some memories were missing ever so often.â
âAnd by the time we found it, he didnât have the God Core. The missing memories contain where the God Core. We believed it was with his family since one of the missing memories was when they were together. But there were more⊠Like in the Ancestral Temple and in spatial distortion.â
âHe couldâve dropped the God Core when he was unconscious in the Spatial Distortion. Or itâs also possible that he hid it or gave it to someone inside the Ancestral Temple. We couldnât go to the other three places, so we wanted to try our luck with his family.â
âThatâs why I canât say for sure if his family have it or not.â
Since he was making the story up, she couldnât just be stubborn and stick to the story. In case these people were able to prove that they didnât have the God Core, which was the case, she was going to be in trouble instead, so she spread her story a bit.
âYouâŠâ The Black Tortoise Clan was known to be the most patient, but even the old man was starting to lose his patience now.
The God Core wasnât an ordinary thing! It was something that could change the entire universe! He didnât want to lose the God Core now that he had some information about it.
âOnly Long Chen can have more accurate information as to where it is, in that case. You will take us to the real Long Chen. Do you understand?â
âI-iâŠ.â The Immortal Queen was gobsmacked. Long Chen was predicted to kill her, and this h guy was taking her to him?
Moreover, even if that happened, these people were going to find out that she had lied! Under no condition could she do that!
