”That ring on yours is a dead giveaway. I might not be from here, but even I have some common sense. I know what this thing implies. Also, if you’re here, I suppose your father will be here too. We need to inform him as well, so he doesn’t wake that person up,” Long Chen answered, seemingly really worried.He didn’t know what abilities the White Tiger King possessed and if he could clear the maze or not, but if he cleared it before them, then it wasn’t good news.”
”My father doesn’t know about any person sleeping here, but I know him. He is a really curious person. If he finds a coffin here, he is certainly opening it without thinking twice. If you’re actually right, we do need to get to him before he gets out,” the lady seemed to agree with Long Chen. “Do you know where we might be able to find him? Any way to get to him?”
”What do you take me as? I don’t even know your father, let alone have a way to get to him.” Long Chen rolled his eyes in response. “You are his daughter, not me. You must have a way to get to him.”
The lady shrugged his shoulders. “I have no other way. It seems the only way we have to meet him now is by getting out of this maze before him.
”The odds of us getting out before him are certainly good, as long as he doesn’t have a treasure to help him find way.” Long Chen kept his faith in the young man who was walking beside him.

In another place, there was another version of Long Chen, who was also in a pickle.
While one Long Chen was trying to get to the White Tiger King, another version of him who hated him was already sitting before another God King.
The Black Tortoise King had just asked him a question as to how he even met up with the Demon Princess when he was stuck in the Ancestral Temple.
Since he had no better answer, he could only go with a vague answer and act ignorant. “Even I don’t know how that happened. One moment I was left behind there, and the next minute, I seemed to fall into a trap. Before I knew it, I was trapped in the Spatial Tunnel. I had to find a way out of that myself by making an opening in that tunnel.”
He mixed his lies with some of the truth of the real Long Chen.
He changed the real story of Long Chen running away with the story of falling into a trap. From that point on, everything else was the same in the story. He talked about being trapped in the realm between spaces, trying to find a way out.
Once again, he changed the end of the story to suit his purpose. At the end of his story, Long Chen ended up in the White Tiger Realm, but in his story, he said he ended up in the Demon Realm.
Fortunately, his story was also somewhat convincing. Everyone knew that the entrance and exit were from the God Beast Realms only. However, if there was indeed a trap that sent a person to the space between spaces, then that changed equations. That made it possible for a person to end up in any of the myriad of realms since all those realms connected with each other.
”Is that so? That makes sense.” The Black Tortoise King let out, maintaining his calm expression. “Anyway, it’s good that you’re back. However, there was one more thing I wanted to ask.”
Boom~
As Black Tortoise Patriarch finished his statement, the door opened. A man barged inside. “I heard Long Chen is back.”
Zhu Chang’s gaze roamed in the surrounding, ultimately ending up on Long Chen. “So it’s true. You are back. You idiot, how can you stay behind in such a dangerous place without telling me? You know how dangerous it could’ve been? I didn’t know what to tell your family about what happened to you since I promised them that I’ll bring you back safely from this trip.”
”You made my life so difficult. I had to avoid them all as I tried to think of what to say. All because you chose to be sneaky behind my back, all because of your curiosity. If only you had stayed with me, I would’ve told you everything you wanted to know!” he further stated.
”Now get up. Let me take you to your family and finish my responsibility.”
Long Chen nodded. He was willing to do anything that got him out of this interrogation, even if it meant going with Zhu Chang, who came at the perfect time.
Even the Patriarch didn’t stop his son from taking Long Chen with him. He just gazed back at the young man with an amused gaze as if he was thinking about something.
The Demonic Princess and the Immortal Queen went with Long Chen as well.
As soon as the four of them were about to leave, they were stopped by the Snake Monarch.
The Snake Monarch kept his sharp gaze at Long Chen before turning to Zhu Chang. “What are you doing?”
”What do you mean what I’m doing? I’m taking him to his family who had been waiting for him,” Zhu Chang answered.
”Why are you taking a stranger to Long Chen’s family?” Snake Monarch retorted.
His one sentence stunned Long Chen and the Immortal Queen! Were they discovered?
”What nonsense are you speaking? Who else can he be? Can’t you see him?”
”I’m telling you, he isn’t Long Chen. I’m the Contracted Beast of Long Chen. No matter how much we argue, there’s that bond of contract between us. I know for a fact that he isn’t Long Chen. He is an impersonator! As for why he is impersonating Long Chen, we need to ask him! It must be a scheme of Demons to take Long Chen’s family hostage. We can’t let him get to them!” Snake Monarch declared.
No matter how useless he was in general situations, in this one, he was entirely correct. Long Chen had many contracted beasts, but all of them were with him. It was by great luck that the Snake Monarch was left behind with Zhu Chang.
As the real Long Chen’s contracted beast, he could sense the truth.
”You stupid snakey, what nonsense are you speaking? Are you angry because I didn’t keep you with me? Enough jokes. I’ve already had enough,” Long Chen answered, trying to get out of the situation.
”That lie won’t work before your father, you bi*ch! If you’re real Long Chen, show this father of yours where is Xun who was with you? Where is she?” Snake Monarch asked.
