Rise of the Demon God

God Core... A lie was told about the presence of God Core with Long Chen, all in an attempt to justify their presence here. However, even if it was a lie, it was something that was enough to attract the complete focus of the Patriarch of the Black Tortoise Clan.

"If a God Core is actually present here, it is news that can put this entire realm in danger. However, if that was indeed the case, would the Demon Emperor send his inexperienced daughter here? He would've come himself." The old man partially believed this story, but he was also suspicious about it.

"He didn't want you to know. If he had arrived, you would've sensed it immediately. Moreover, if you found out about the God Core, he knew you would've let him take it. Moreover, if there was a battle between him and you for the God Core, he feared that the other God Beasts and the Heavenly Emperor were also going to get the news."

Now that the first lie was told, it was the responsibility of the Immortal Queen to maintain it for her own safety.

"That's why he made this elaborate plan to pretend that he discovered an injured Long Chen. Moreover, since he couldn't show it as too important and merely a gesture of goodwill, he couldn't come himself. He sent his daughter," The Immortal Queen repeated her lie. "The entire goal was to get to the real Long Chen's family to find out the God Core."

The old man paced back and forth before he brought a small crystal out of his pocket.

He sent some of his Origin Energy in the crystal. The crystal started shining brightly.

All the guards, citizens and every important person also had a similar crystal, just in a smaller size.

Receiving a signal that all brought their crystal out of their pockets. A holographic image of the Patriarch came out of the crystal, surprising everyone.

"Everyone, we have two intruders in our realm. I'm placing the entire realm on the lockdown. No one is allowed to leave their homes for the next few days! And if anyone sees these two people, they are to immediately inform me or the Royal Guards near you! It is of grave importance that these two are caught at the earliest!" The Patriarch declared.

After his command, two more images reached everyone, which showed the Demon Princess and Long Chen from the memories of the old man.

The old man didn't just stop there. He brought another crystal out of thin air. This time, he didn't apply any energy. Instead, he simply crushed the crystal.

As the crystal was crushed, a beautiful shield appeared all around the Black Tortoise Realm, which was visible through the naked eye.

On a distant mountain, the Demon Queen was also pacing back and forth in anger. She didn't even want to look at Long Chen's face, or she might kill him.

She was trying really hard to not kill him for this stupid blunder! If it was because of him, they were trapped here.

She raised her head to gaze at the beautiful sky, which was covered in a mysterious blue light.

"Tsk, just our luck! The old turtle is using every last trick to make my life difficult! Teleporting out of this realm was already very hard, but now because of this barrier, it's literally impossible now!"

She glared back at Long Chen finally with a bloodthirsty gaze.

Long Chen was sweating at this point. Even though he was much stronger, he wasn't sure if he could take the Demon Princess in a battle. He knew he had made a big mistake! In his haste, he completely forgot to count the Snake Monarch as an important factor in his plan.

The Demon Princess was so enraged that she flew straight to Long Chen. All her attempts at self-control failed. The more she thought, the angrier she became.

She grabbed Long Chen by his throat and raised him in the air. "Give me one good reason why I shouldn't kill you right now? You couldn't do one thing right, and you also made us end up in this stupid place even though that man wasn't even here! Not only that, the Black Tortoise Clan must think we hurt the real Long Chen! They will kill us if they find us, and it's all because of you!"

"Wait, I can... I mean, we can get out of this situation! Things aren't over yet!"

"How can we get out of this place? This entire realm is sealed! We can't even leave this place!" The lady almost screamed.

"We might not be able to leave this realm, but we can still sneak inside the Black Tortoise Clan Mansion. Wasn't that the original plan?  We just need to stick to the old plan!"

"Why would we go back there? They already know you aren't real! You want me to go there and surrender myself? I would rather just kill you first before surrendering myself! It's because of you the reputation of my father is at risk too! Argh!"

"No, seriously. Once we get inside that place, I have a plan! We can get out of trouble safely! I promise you, all we need to do is get inside! The way you teleported us here, can't you teleport us back inside?" Long Chen inquired as if thinking of something really important.

The lady nodded her head. "Now that I've been inside once, I can go there again, but only if they haven't taken precautions against teleportation. I'm sure they would've taken such precautions now! So that won't work. But still, tell me your plan? Why do you think we need to go back? Don't tell me you want to save your friend?"

"My friend? You mean that lady? She isn't my friend. I don't care one bit about her. Even if she is dead, it doesn't matter to me. All I care about is you and your safety!" With a concerned gaze, Long Chen glanced in the eyes of the Demon Princess, showing his handsome side.

Unfortunately, this wasn't going to work on the Demon Queen. She wasn't going to fall so easily.

"Get straight to the point! Why do you want to go back then? What purpose does it serve?!" The Princess asked.

"I didn't want to do this, but that's the only way left now. Prince Zhu Chang seemed to care for his friend Long Chen a lot. That means he cares for Long Chen's family like it's his family. So if we can manage to get inside and Kidnap anyone from Long Chen's family, they'll have to do what we want! Zhu Chang will make sure of that!"
