Chapter 1394 - 1394: Castle Of Goddess
Chapter 1394 – 1394: Castle Of Goddess
"The Floating Castle? You mean the caste of the Goddess?" One of the Envoys asked.
"The Castle of the goddess? Intriguing name. I wonder which goddess it is," Long Chen rubbed his chin, amused. "Tell me more about it."
"A-alright. It's the castle of the mighty cultivator who lived millions of years ago. At least that's what I heard. She had existed from the time of the First Emperor that we saw. However, she had disappeared before the humans conquered the Blood Dragon Emperor."
"And then only recently…"
The man started telling the whole story to Long Chen. A woman who had disappeared such a long time ago and suddenly appeared again.
Hearing about the timeline of the woman's disappearance, Long Chen felt something odd. A female cultivator from the Immortal World… The one who disappeared so long ago. Since she came back after so long and wasn't seen before, that only meant she was in hiding.
And from hiding, he remembered something else as well. The two people who were after him to kill him. They also claimed that they were sent by a lady, told to wait for him for millions of years because she was scared that he would kill her.
This timing… It was awfully close. He wondered if the lady they talked about was the same lady who left those people behind to kill him in the future.
"We told you everything we knew. Can we leave now?" The envoys asked after finishing up.
"Ah, right. You did what I asked. You can go. I don't want to make you late to meet them." Long Chen nodded.
"M-meet who?" The envoys asked.
"What do you mean meet who?" Long Chen asked, laughing. "Your Emperor, who else?"
Three Qi Swords appeared above the heads of the three men. The swords came crashing down, stabbing the only people who were alive in the Royal Court. Even they didn't remain alive for long though.
After finishing up, Long Chen left the Royal Palace.
He stood outside the Palace, looking up. "Could she actually be the one? But it doesn't make sense. Why would she think I'd kill her? I mean, the only reason I have to kill her is because she tried to kill me first. If she hadn't, I don't think this would even be worth investigating."
"I still have time left to spend in this world. And I can't be sure how long it'll be before I'm able to come back. I should deal with everything while I'm here."
He flew towards the Palace in the sky.
As Long Chen closed in on the palace, he was able to see it closely. The Palace looked pretty good. The architecture looked ancient yet new at the same time. And most importantly, it looked strong.
There was a female guard standing at the entrance.
Long Chen landed at the entrance only to be stopped by the guard.
The woman had initially thought that Long Chen was just a human cultivator. She didn't want to allow him to go in. Instead, she had thought to send him away right away.
However, seeing his dark eyes and feeling his killing aura, she had a feeling that he wasn't an ordinary man. She wondered if he was a Half Demon.
She knew she had to take him seriously.
"May I ask who you are? And what do you need from Her Majesty?" She asked.
"I'm new here. Just thought that I should say hi to your queen after hearing such praise about her," Long Chen replied.
"Is that so?" The woman said. "May I know where you are from? I want to be able to give her more accurate information."
"Sure. I am just returning from the Heavenly Realm. You can tell her that."
"You are a Heavenly Citizen?" The woman asked, not trusting Long Chen.
"Suspicious?"
"You don't have any Heavenly Aura. How can you be from there? It's not as if I haven't seen someone from the Heavenly Realm before. Tell me the truth."
"Oh? You want the Heavenly Aura?" Long Chen smirked.
He flew back and joined his hands.
As soon as he closed his eyes, an image of Buddha appeared behind him. The Giant Buddha was even larger than the floating Palace itself. And it looked to be made from pure gold.
Even more importantly, the Golden Buddha had the aura of the Heavenly Realm, which spread far and wide. The aura wasn't weak either.
It was the skill of the Buddha Sect which wasn't actually taught to him by Lu Chen. Instead, it was his master who taught him this skill which was only known by the Sect Masters of the Buddha Sect.
The giant golden Buddha was seen far and wide in the Immoral World. The citizens couldn't help but wonder what was happening.
Moreover, the aura was giving the citizens a feeling of devotion. Most of them even went down to their knees in respect.
After a short glimpse of the aura, Long Chen opened his eyes. The Golden Buddha behind him disappeared.
Long Chen landed back before the floating Palace.
"Are you happy now?" he asked. "Now, don't tell me that wasn't the Heavenly Aura. If you say that, it'll mean you don't actually know what Heavenly Aura is and that you were bluffing."
He was right as well. The woman was just bluffing. The only reason she believed Long Chen wasn't from the Heavenly reason was his eyes and his killing aura. She didn't really know what a Heavenly Aura was like. She did have a feeling that Long Chen's aura was it after he said with such confidence.
"Who is outside?" A calm voice came from inside the Palace. Even the woman inside felt the Heavenly Aura outside the palace.
She had also seen Long Chen outside. Despite that, she pretended not to know.
Inside the Palace, the real queen was actually slightly scared. She had recognized Long Chen. She had seen the prediction that a man was going to kill her. And the image in the prediction was the face of Long Chen.
Seeing him at her door, she understood that her men had failed. That's why she was up and not because they had succeeded.
She had acted swiftly as well. Instead of staying behind, she actually ran away. She disappeared, going to some unknown place to avoid the prediction until she could come up with a plan.
Only her clone was left inside to meet Long Chen. It didn't matter to her even if the clone was killed.
"It's someone who wishes to meet you! Someone claiming to be from the Heavenly Realm!"
