Chapter 1506 1506
”Xun, ah, she isn’t with us.” Stuttering for words, Long Chen spoke whatever came to his mind at that moment to buy him more time to think of an answer clearly.Of course, he knew that Xun was with real Long Chen, but he didn’t expect that this question was going to be asked. He couldn’t even imagine in his wildest dreams that he was going to be caught because of a damn snake.
”Do you now believe me?” The Snake Monarch asked, turning to Zhu Chang.
Seeing Long Chen struggle to answer such a basic question was enough for him to prove it. If it was real Long Chen, he shouldn’t have been worried about such a basic one. All he needed was to tell where Xun was. There was no need for that much thinking.
”Real Xun must be with real Long Chen. Of course, this fake one can’t answer the question of his father!” Snake Monarch added.
Initially, even Zhu Chang thought that maybe the Snake Monarch was messing with Long Chen because he was angry, but with the time he spent with Long Chen and Snake Monarch, he understood some basic things about them.
No matter how vile language the Snake Monarch used for his enemies, he never used such insulting words for Long Chen, like calling himself his father. Just that gesture was enough for Zhu Chang to understand that Snake Monarch was perfectly serious.
Still, he wanted to hear the answer from Long Chen himself. He kept his focus on Long Chen and dropped the plan of taking him back without having things confirmed.
Long Chen took a deep breath, realizing that he was in deep trouble. He could see the questioning gazes of Zhu Chang.
A tear appeared in his eyes as he looked down. “Xun died in the Spatial Crack we were trapped in. I couldn’t save her.”
He thought deeply how he could escape this trap, only to end up with one solution. If only he could make them believe that Xun was dead, that emotional state could answer why he took so long.
Standing behind him, the Demon Princess was already cursing Long Chen in her mind. This idiot, he acted like he had a full proof plan, coming straight to the Patriarch of the Black Tortoise Clan, and now he couldn’t even get past the beast’s observation?
’This idiot claimed he had all the memories of the real guy. How can he be stupid enough to not know that a contracted beast was here? Even though I’m not a human, I also know that a contract beast should recognize its master!’ If gazes could kill, Long Chen would already be dead by now just from the daggers that the lady was firing from her gazes.
Long Chen was trying his best to navigate his way out of this situation, but it didn’t seem to be working.
As Long Chen started crying over Xun, Zhu Chang was convinced that he was faking it. He could differentiate between real and fake emotions, and he was sure that these were fake emotions. However, he still played along.
”That… I am so sorry. I didn’t know this had happened.” He stepped closer to hug Long Chen. Unfortunately, before he could hug Long Chen, the Demon Princess placed her hand on the shoulders of Long Chen and pulled him back to her.
She could sense that Zhu Chang had started using his energy. She didn’t know what he was planning, but she could sense that it wasn’t good. She realized that Long Chen was caught. She couldn’t let Zhu Chang grab Long Chen as there was a risk that he was going to kill him.
She couldn’t let him die since only he knew where the real Long Chen was. She needed him.
Holding onto Long Chen, the Demon Princess brought a small crystal out and smashed it on the ground. Smoke spread everywhere, blinding everyone’s vision.
By the time the smoke disappeared, Long Chen had disappeared. He was gone. He wasn’t the only one who was missing. Even the Demon Princess had disappeared. There was only one person who was left behind.
The Immortal Queen looked all around her in confusion. She couldn’t believe that Long Chen had left her behind as he teleported away with the Demon Princess?
She was fuming in rage. She was the one who brought Long Chen to this level, and now he had abandoned her already?! If she wasn’t with him, he couldn’t be trapped in that godforsaken world forever, and now he ran without her?!
”Where did they go?” Zhu Chang grabbed the neck of the lady before him, raising her in the air.
The immortal queen felt like she was being choked. She could resist and use her attacks, but she knew she was very weak. She wasn’t strong enough to face a God Beast in his home, especially since his father was standing right beside her.
”I doubt she knows.” A calm voice came from the back.
”How can you say that, father?”
”If she knew where they were, they would’ve left her behind? They abandoned her as they teleported away. I don’t think this girl knows where they are.”
”They teleported away?” Zhu Chang exclaimed.
The old man nodded his head. “Can’t you sense the Spatial Energy? It’s very chaotic. A teleportation took place here; however, it wasn’t one that could take them out of this realm. They are probably only out of this city at best.”
”Father, can you place the guards in the search? If that person isn’t Long Chen then he must know where real Long Chen is. Moreover, they came to our home. I’m sure they must have a purpose behind it. I don’t feel comfortable with them roaming in our realm freely.”
”Don’t worry about it. It wasn’t as if I wanted the realm to have some enemies.” The old man simply smiled, but something was strange about this smile. It was as if he really wasn’t angry at all. Instead, it was as if he knew everything already, and he still let it happen.
”If they had some plan for coming here, I’m sure this girl should at least know that much.” Zhu Chang shifted his focus back to the Immortal Queen. ” Either you answer me and tell me everything, or I’ll crush your neck right here.”
The Immortal Queen was in danger, all because of Long Chen. She was cursing him so badly right now, but she also couldn’t tell the entire truth. It wasn’t like she could say they were here to capture Long Chen’s family so they could kill him more comfortably later. She knew if she said it, she was going to be dead faster than she could finish her story.
