Rise of the Demon God-Chapter 1396 - 1396: True

The woman looked back at Long Chen, seemingly surprised. She wondered how Long Chen was able to find out that she wasn't real.

"Have fun until this," Long Chen further stated before he turned around and started leaving without even looking back.

Leaving the Immortal Queen clone behind, he left the room and went down the stairs to leave the place.

As soon as he left the palace, he noticed the female guard at the door. "You should leave the job as soon as you can."

After a subtle warning, he flew away.

Long Chen didn't go too far though. After a short flight, he stopped in mid air and turned around, looking back at the Palace.

He could see the woman's glimpse through the window. She was looking towards him.

Long Chen flashed a bright smile and waved his hand towards her. The woman didn't know that at the same time, a massive Heavenly Mountain was taking shape above her palace.

Even the guard at the entrance was unaware.

However, she soon noticed a shadow covering the ground. She raised her head and looked up.

"What?" As she looked up, she saw a massive golden mountain which was coming crashing down. She didn't have much time to do anything. All she could do was issue a warning to the woman inside while flying away to save herself.

Albeit, it was too late.

The mountain crashed on the floating Palace, bringing it down to the ground before destroying it. ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢

The mountain soon disappeared, and only the rubble was left.

Long Chen looked at the rubble calmly. "You played with my life when you were strong, and I was weak."

"Let's see how you feel when roles are reversed. This time, you'll be running for your life. And we shall see how long you can run." He turned his back on the destroyed Palace, which was once flying proudly, visible all around the world.

His figure flickered before it disappeared.

...

Long Chen appeared back at the Western Royal Palace. He waited inside the bedroom of Mimi while using his Divine Sense to see what was happening.

Mimi was in the Royal Sanctuary under the Royal Palace with her brothers and an old Minister. They were here to respectfully bury their father, who had died.

"Sorry, little girl. But that was the only way I could be free of this Heavenly Oath. And now that I am free, I don't have to worry about anything for the time being. At least until my bloodline fully awakens."

"That aside, I will soon be in the Heavenly Beast World. I should be close to finding some Phoenix Blood. And Snake Monarch will also be stronger. They must have lots of resources and things I could absorb as well."

"The things in this world have grown ineffective for me at the moment with my strength. I wonder how the new chapter of my life will be. Since I'll be with Zhu Chang, it should be a bit on the calmer side."

After burying her father, Mimi left the Royal Sanctuary and came back to Long Chen.

They returned to the Royal Chamber. She didn't come to her bedroom.

Long Chen, who was waiting for her, couldn't help but look at time. He wanted to leave fast, but he also wanted to meet her first.

He stood up and walked to the window to have some time pass. He looked out the window, noticing people walking on the distant street.

There was one particular person who attracted his attention.? It was a red haired woman who was dressed in a beautiful red gown.

The woman also looked back at Long Chen as if she could feel a gaze resting on her. Her flaming red eyes met Long Chen's beautiful golden eyes that were surrounded in black.

"That woman... She certainly has some powerful aura. It reminds me of the aura of Zhu Chang. I wonder who she is?" Long Chen commented as he decided to ask here directly.

He disappeared and appeared on the street where the last was standing. Albeit, she wasn't there anymore.

He looked all around, but he couldn't find her.

He wondered if he was hallucinating? That didn't make sense though. He was sure she was here. But how could she leave so fast?

He flew high in the sky to get a better view of the city and checked everywhere. He couldn't find her though.

Disappointed, he could only go back to Mimi's room.

Mimi was still in the Royal Court where the Next Emperor was being decided. Even though no Prince was even close to the strength of their father, one of them had to be selected as the Emperor.

The Eldest Prince was selected in the end to lead the weakened Empire. As for the crown ceremony, it was going to be held tomorrow.

After everything was decided, Mimi came back to her room.

As she returned, she found Long Chen in the bed. Her eyes were still in tears, which she was trying hard to control.

"Was the news true?" Long Chen asked, standing up.

Mimi nodded. "Yeah. Someone killed her."

She entered Long Chen's embrace as she couldn't control her tears anymore.

Long Chen wrapped his arms around her as well. "Everything is going to be fine. Don't worry. Your father's soul must be in a better place now."

After half an hour of consolation, Mimi finally calmed down. She still didn't leave Long Chen's embrace though.

"Mimi?"

"Yeah?" f𝔯ℯe𝓌ℯ𝐛𝒏𝐨ѵel.c𝚘𝐦

"I had to tell you something."

"Tell me what?"

"I need to leave the Immoral World and go somewhere else."

"You need to leave?" Mimi asked, stunned.

"Yeah. I only have a couple of hours to stay here. I can't stay any longer. So I wanted to ask, do you want to come with me? It'll be a better world."

"I-i can't leave. At least not until 14 days are over. We'll hold the prayers for father after 14 days. That's a tradition. It's for the peace of his soul. And tomorrow is the coronation of my brother."

"If it is after 14 days, I can go anywhere. Can you come back to take me then?"

"It should be difficult to come back in such a short time," Long Chen smiled wryly.

"Can't you leave your brothers to finish the traditions?"

"I can't. It's for the sake of my father. I-i can't leave him for my happiness," Mimi replied, still not leaving Long Chen's embrace. "Is there no other way?"

"I can't stay here and lose this opportunity. And you can't come with me.. Is there any other way? It's not a place where we can travel back and forth from."
