Chapter 1392 - 1392: Two Sides
Chapter 1392 – 1392: Two Sides
The Western Emperor disappeared to evade Long Chen to calm down a bit to understand the situation. He wanted to think clearly since he was curious as to how Long Chen broke his chains. These chains were the strongest skills that he could use at the moment.
Even though he tried to avoid the direct clash, he couldn't truly escape it. Long Chen appeared behind the old man as if he could see where the old man was going to appear.
Right before the eyes of everyone, Long Chen stabbed his hand in the chest of the old man and clawed out his heart.
The old man's eyes opened wide as he bit his lips so hard that they started bleeding. He dropped to the ground without any support. His face became pale as his chest kept bleeding. All his clothes were covered in blood.
Long Chen looked down at the Western Emperor. He took a deep breath before he started speaking. "Mother! I, Liu Yan, have taken revenge for you! This bastard is no more!"
As he spoke, he brought out an ordinary sword from his ring, which he had never used before, and sliced the head of the Emperor so he couldn't be healed.
Even though he spoke in an emotional tone, he made sure that others in the Royal Court could hear him.
After finishing up, he left through the main door. No one dared to block his path. The person who could kill the Western Emperor, who could dare to stop him.
They simply watched Long Chen leave the castle and disappeared into the horizon.
After Long Chen left, everyone finally came to their senses and started running to inform everyone.
The Ministers checked the Western Emperor to see if something could be done to heal him. But there was nothing they could do.
"Inform the Prince and the Princess what had happened here." A minister told the guards.
…
"And that's all. These are my family members. You know, it'll be slightly awkward after I introduce you to them. You are sure you want to do it?' Long Chen's clone asked.
Throughout this time, he had kept Mimi engaged.
Knock~
Knock~
Suddenly, the sound of heavy knocks came from the door.
"Why is someone knocking like that? Did they know you're here?" Mimi asked, looking at the door. "Hide in the bathroom. I'll see who it is."
Long Chen stood up and swiftly went inside the bathroom. After reaching there, he found the real Long Chen there. The two of them merged again.
Long Chen appeared in the same old clothes.
He opened the doors of the bathroom. He already knew what might be happening. He calmly walked out of the bathroom and stood near the wall, keeping him away from the gaze of the guard.
"What do you need?" Mimi asked the guard.
"P-princess! You need to come with us quickly! H-his Majesty is dead! Someone killed him a few minutes ago!" The guard informed the Princess.
"What nonsense! Do you know you can be killed for this stupid joke?" Mimi asked, refusing to believe.
"I-i am not joking! It was someone named Liu Yan! He came to the Royal Court for some revenge. He killed His Majesty and left!" The guard replied. "I need to inform other Princes too. You should report to the Royal Court! All the Ministers are there!"
The guard ran away, leaving stunned Mimi behind.
She looked back at Long Chen. "T-this… Did you hear?"
"Yeah. I can't believe it. Someone actually killed your father… How is this possible."
"Come! Come with me! We need to get there to know more!"
"I can't come there," Long Chen said, shaking his head. "You know I'm already wanted. If I'm seen outside at this time, everyone will think I killed your father."
"Nonsense! You were with me all this time! I can tell them the truth."
"Tell them what truth? That we were on the bed together? Don't. It won't be good for you. Just go and meet your father. I'll go outside to see if I can find the murderer. I'll meet you back in this place."
Long Chen disappeared.
Mimi ran to the Royal Court to see her father.
All the Princes were there as well, looking at their dead father. Some looked really upset, while others were angry that a stranger was able to come here, kill their father and leave while the Ministers didn't even try to stop the guy.
They started asking more about the killer to find him. However, the Ministers opposed it. The Ministers suggested that they shouldn't antagonize the murderer. That person was too strong.
He could kill an Emperor. However, he wasn't the enemy of the Empire. That's why he left. That just meant that he only had enmity with the Emperor. But if they went after him, the enmity would extend to everyone. And they didn't want to suffer because of that.
…
In the meantime, Long Chen appeared in the Northern Empire. It was his final destination: the Northern Emperor and the main culprit behind the betrayal of the Saint Emperor.
What truly surprised Long Chen was the caste in the sky, though. He hadn't seen it before when he was here last time. He wondered who was inside.
He left the investigation for later and simply approached the Northern Emperor's palace.
He brought the King's Sword out. Since he was going to take the revenge of the Saint Emperor, he knew it was best if done with the weapon of the Saint King to give him peace.
Seeing Long Chen approach the Palace with a sword in his hand, the guards became alert. They ran to Long Chen to stop him.
Swiss~
A casual swing of Long Chen's sword was enough to slice the two guards in halves. He stepped inside the Palace without any obstruction. Since it was the last Target, he wanted to have a little fun and not be too fast.
As he walked through the Palace, he didn't spare anyone. The ruthless Long Chen was back who had destroyed planets to get some blood droplets. Bodies kept dropping like flies as he walked closer to the Royal Chamber. He had already found out where it was using his Divine Sense.
Just as he reached closer to the Royal Palace, he saw three guards.
"Hey, I recognize you," Long Chen smiled. "Aren't you the ones who were chasing after me?"
"It's you!" The three envoys said, recognizing Long Chen.
They were the ones that were sent by the Northern Emperor to catch Long Chen after hearing about the appearance of a possible demon in the Mortal World.
