Rise Of The Demon God

Chapter 1464 1464: No way in

”My father would know more about it, though. We need to leave this place first to find him. The faster we find him, the faster we can think of a way to go back.”

”Come, we can’t afford to waste more time!” Zhu Chang started walking where he came from, trying to find a way out. “Also, I’m already frustrated. I don’t have time to hear your nonsense. So be serious this time, if you can be.”

”What do you mean be serious? I’m always serious. Moreover, my right hand man’s life is in danger. Of course, I will be serious. I need to protect him!”

”You need to protect him? You’re literally the weakest creature here. How do you suppose you can protect him? What you need to do is stay silent and let me take care of this problem!”

Zhu Chang had walked for only a short distance before stopping. He noticed a Spatial Portal before him. Through the Portal, he could see the mountain top.

”This is the exit. Come,” Zhu Chang commented.

He took a step towards the portal, only to stop finding a hand touching his shoulder.

”Finally, I found you!” A man’s voice fell in the ears of Zhu Chang.

Recognizing that voice, Zhu Chang turned around. “Uncle? What are you doing here?”

”I came here to save you.”

”Save me? What? What do you mean?”

”I’ll tell you later. First, we need to leave. This place isn’t right.” The middle-aged man said. He held the wrist of Zhu Chang.

”Wait!” Zhu Chang resisted, taking a step back instead.

”I can’t leave now! It’s good that you’re here. I needed some help. I need a way to get back to the Ancient Temple again. But after I returned once, the door closed. You can help me go back.”

”Wait? You already went there?”

”I did,” Zhu Chang answered. “But I accidentally left my friend behind, trapped in the temple. I need to go back to help him out.”

”Go back? That’s impossible now,” the Middle aged man responded. “A person can only go there once in their lifetime. If you already went there once, that means you can’t go back again.”

”Then, my friend?” Zhu Chang asked. “If he’s trapped inside, there is probably no way to get him out now. You can’t go there. And it’s I’m not wrong, the other Heirs must have already finished their exploration.”

”I’ve been there before as well, so I can’t go either. It’s impossible now. Forget that man. He isn’t coming out.”

”That can’t be. We need to get him out! Maybe we can send the ones who haven’t been there before? There must be many people in the clan?!”

”There would certainly be many, but the time is that they don’t have the purity of bloodline that’s needed. If they come, they won’t even make it to the door, let alone go inside.”

”We would need to train someone, especially for this task which will take time. Even in that case, you’ll need to come back. Your father will decide what to do.”

”Why are you so eager to take me back?”

”I told you I’ll tell you everything outside. First, you need to leave. An enemy has infiltrated this tomb. He’s roaming around, killing our people. You can’t be here as you might get hurt. So come with me. We’ll wait outside. We need the space!”

This time, the man didn’t listen to Zhu Chang. As he was stronger than Zhu Chang, he was able to use more strength and drag Zhu Chang inside the Portal, taking him away.

The Snake Monarch also entered inside the portal, taking one last glance. He couldn’t save Long Chen alone. And if what the man said was true, then this place was dangerous. He couldn’t stay behind.

Zhu Chang and the Snake Monarch came out of the portal, appearing on the main platform on the top of the mountain in the middle of all the statues. The Portal behind them disappeared.

”This….” Zhu Chang noticed all the blood on the ground. This entire mountain was empty as well. “Is it done by that person? He killed who was here?”

”He did, it seems. I didn’t find even a single person when I entered this place. It was completely empty,” the middle-aged man answered, sighing.

”Only a single trail of blood was here at the entrance, which I’m assuming was used to open the entrance by him. If it weren’t for this, not a single blood droplet would’ve been left behind,” he further continued.

”Killing everyone without leaving a single droplet of blood behind! Just who is this person? Who dares to infiltrate the Black Tortoise Realm? Who is so fearless?” Zhu Chang asked as his fists clenched.

”He isn’t someone you know. We call him Devourer. He has been someone we have been trying to kill for a long time, but he always runs and finds a way to hide in the vast space. This is a monster who loves to eat the souls of Godly Beasts.”

”I don’t know what’s his enmity with us or why he does it, but he’s been a headache for all Godly Beast Clans.”

”So he’s an enemy of all God Beast Clans? And he’s still alive?” Zhu Chang asked, stunned. “How is that possible? Even the Dragon Clan couldn’t kill him?”

”As I said, he’s a very cowardly person. He hides whenever we get close to him. And he only targets youngsters and avoids people like us since he knows it might get worse for him. However, this time I won’t let him escape. This time he dared to enter our home. He can’t escape, at any cost!”

”Do one thing, leave and meet your father. Tell him I located the Devourer, and he’s inside the Tomb. I’ll keep an eye on the exit in the meantime. If he comes out before your father gets here, I’ll kill him myself. If not, we can surround this place. You understand? Be fast.”

”I’m not leaving you,” Zhu Chang said. “If that person thinks he can kill whoever he wants, then he hasn’t met me. Today will be his last day. I’ll give you a backup. We don’t need father.”
