Rise of the Demon God-Chapter 1387 - 1387: Friend

As the Spatial Realm was destroyed, Long Chen appeared back inside the prison. He was right before the Dark Tower. 

He raised his head and looked at the score, wondering if he had any. 

He started from the lowest and rose to the highest. 

"Highest score? Not half bad." His dark eyes watched the top ranking in the top. He had the highest score at this point. And all because of a single trial that lasted for close to a decade. 

He wondered if there was some bias in that score because the one who gave that score was his master. 

"Where is everything else though?" There was no one around the Dark Tower for some strange reason. 

"It's the day, so they shouldn't be inside cells. But still, this place looks so empty?"

Curious, he started flying towards the main arena. He was sure there must be people there. Unfortunately, it was also empty. He could see dust flying only. There was no one here. 

Frowning, he flew towards the cell, wondering if the people weren't let out yet. 

As he reached the cell, he found two Heavens Warriors at the entrance, guarding it. It was confusing. The people who were never here were guarding this place? What had happened here? 

Did someone try escaping? Or was there another incident? He noticed that the barrier was still intact. No one could have escaped even if they wanted to. Then why?

He straight walked closer to the Heavenly Warriors. 

Before Long Chen could approach the Heavenly Warriors, the Warriors noticed him. 

"Look! He's the guy in the portrait! He's right here!" 

The Warriors walked towards Long Chen, who was confused. These Warriors didn't look like they were trying to attack him. Instead, they seemed relieved to find him. 

"You're finally here! Come with us! Your friend is looking for you!"

By now, all Heavenly Warriors knew that Long Chen was to be freed. He was going to go with the Heavenly Beasts who were looking for him. It was also the command of the Heavenly Emperor, so they couldn't attack Long Chen or antagonize him. 

"My friend?" Hearing them, Long Chen wondered if they were talking about the guy he met here when he first arrived.

There was a suspicion that the guy was a Heavenly Warrior in disguise. Did he think that Long Chen had escaped and was looking for him?

Nothing made sense. 

"Take me to him," he replied. 

However, the Guards suddenly frowned as they noticed Long Chen's pitch-black eyes.

They believed Long Chen was a demon, but they couldn't do anything. They didn't want to attack prematurely. So they left it to be decided by their General. 

Instead of escorting him to Zhu Chang, they started taking him in a different direction. 

Long Chen followed suit. 

The guards brought Long Chen to the Heavenly Tower, where all the Heavenly Warriors stayed inside the prison. Seeing this place, Long Chen was sure that these people were talking about Zia Uzhi. That guy was actually a Heavenly Warrior and staying here. 

He didn't worry about being trapped either since he was different now. He was also pretty confident in himself. 

He proudly entered the Heavenly Tower. 

"Stand on the circle. You'll be taken to the waiting room. Meanwhile, we'll inform your friend that you're found."

Long Chen calmly stepped inside the circle without resisting. The teleportation formation took him to the upper floor of the tower. 

Just as the guards had said, there was no other person in that place. There was only Long Chen and a couple of chairs.

Long Chen did feel a little spatial restriction though. 

"Interesting. Very interesting." He smirked as he sat on one of the chairs and started waiting. 

On the other side, another Heavenly Warriors had reached the Heavenly General who was walking with Zhu Chang, searching the Inner prison. 

The Heavenly Warrior didn't speak a single word to the Heavenly General. Instead, he simply gave him a piece of paper. 

The Heavenly General opened the piece of paper and read it. Reading the paper, his frown deepened. 

The piece of power burnt to cinders in his hand. 

"You guys accompany the guests. I'll be right back." He commanded other guards before he left. 

He was slightly surprised to know about the real identity of Long Chen. If he was actually a demon, that meant these Heavenly Beasts were lying about their story. 

That meant they weren't here to bring an innocent person out, but they were here to help break out a demon who was probably sent here by a Heavenly Warrior by risking his life.  

He swiftly left the inner prison and flew back to the Heavenly Tower. 

"Is he still inside?' He asked the Heavenly Warrior. 

The Heavenly Warrior nodded. "He is upstairs."

The Heavenly General stepped on the circle and disappeared.

...

Long Chen was sitting inside the Heavenly Tower, waiting for the so-called friend who was looking for him. However, he was starting to get bored. 

Before long, a light flashed in the room. By the time the light disappeared, a figure appeared in the room.

Seeing the newly arrived guest, Long Chen frowned. This guy... He was strong. In fact, he was stronger than any Heavenly Warrior that he had seen before. 

He remained calm and stood up. "And who might you be? My so-called friend?"

"Those eyes... So you really are a demon." The Heavenly General glared at Long Chen. 

"If you're figuratively speaking, then I don't mind," Long Chen smiled. "But if you're being literal, then you might be wrong. I'm not a demon. I'm a human."

"Nonsense! Humans don't have those eyes! They don't have that fierce killing aura. You're not only a demon but a demon who has killed a lot of people! It's fascinating that a Heavenly Warrior was able to throw you inside the prison!" 

"On the other hand, it's even more fascinating to see the people who came here to save you. You Demons are getting pretty cozy with the Heavenly Beasts, aren't you?" The Heavenly General asked. 

"Heavenly Beasts? Wait. Don't tell me Zhu Chang is here? Is that the friend you were talking about? That idiot really came here to get me out? Pretty amusing. And very fast." Long Chen burst into laughter. 

"That's right. They came for you. But they won't find you. They lied about your identity. And I can't let them take you. But opposing them directly would be a messy situation. So I'll just take the faster route." The Heavenly General said. 

"What would that route be?" Long Chen asked, smirking. 

"The route of making you disappear forever!"
