Rise Of The Demon God

Chapter 1403 - 1403: Request

The aura coming from the statues was a bit similar to Zhu Chang's aura to some extent. It was giving him a feeling that the statues were larger than life here.

"Amazed by these statues?" Zhu Chang asked Long Chen.

"They certainly don't look ordinary. Is there something special in them?" Long Chen asked.

"I guess you can say that. The statues are certainly not ordinary. Instead, they are treasures that are here to protect this tower," Zhu Chang replied.

"Protect the tower?"

"Yep. Just as a precaution. So nothing to worry about. For example, if this place is ever under attack, the statues are supposed to come to life and protect this place."

"They can come to life?"

"Of course they can. At least I heard they can. But we were never under attack, so I haven't actually seen that happen. And I doubt I would see such in the future."

"But yeah, this was created by a great Ancestor millions of years ago. I won't doubt their wisdom. So let's just believe it was true."

"Anyways, enough talking about the statue. Come inside." Zhu Chang pushed the door open.

Long Chen followed him inside, constantly having a feeling that the statues were keeping an eye on him for some reason.

"What place is this?" Long Chen asked, walking inside the tower. He couldn't find anyone here. It looked like an abandoned tower. "There's nothing here."

"Ling Ling! Don't worry; he is with me. Nothing wrong here." Zhu Chang said, looking like he was talking to thin air.

"Fine." A female voice came from nowhere before things started appearing out of nowhere.

The place which looked empty until now was filled now. It was as if there was a mysterious shroud surrounding the entire place, which was making Long Chen unable to see this place previously. But now that the shroud was removed, he was able to see everything.

The place was massive. There were thousands of shelves. In fact, now he couldn't even see the end of the tower. And each of these shelves was containing an item.

There were no higher floors. He could only see thousands more of the shelves flying high in the sky, covering the entire place.

In the middle of the tower, a young-looking woman was standing who appeared to be in her early twenties. She looked just as young as Zhu Chang.

Her beautiful green hair was so long that they were almost coming down to her knees. Her deep green eyes were glaring at Zhu Chang.

She was dressed in a beautiful green gown that had wrapped tightly around her curvy body.

"You are back, it seems. The place was so peaceful without you. May I ask who he is? And why did you have to bring him here?" Ling Ling asked. "And does Patriarch know about it?"

"I already talked to my father about it. You can trust me." Zhu Chang smiled.

"Why do I find it hard to believe you?"

"You can ask him if you're suspicious. He himself told me that I should take our guest to the Plum Blossom Mountain tomorrow. So of course, I would come here first. Why would I lie to you?" Zhu Chang let out.

"Now stop wasting our time and find him a revival talisman. We don't have much time."

The woman kept looking at Long Chen, still wondering if he should believe them.

"You do know what lying to us would mean, right?" Ling Ling asked. "Even last time, you fooled me to take the teleportation artifact, saying that your father sent you to take it!"

"You know how much I was scolded after you ran away with that treasure?!"

"Come on. Forget the past. I was naive then. But believe me, I am not lying now. I promise it is the truth this time. You can talk to my father to make sure. In any case, why else would I need Revival Talisman if I wasn't going to Plum Blossom Mountain with him? Not as if I need it."

"I'll have to ask your father first. Let's see what he has to say. This time, I won't listen to you."

"Whatever," Zhu Chang rolled his eyes. "Father might be busy though. He went somewhere with third uncle. You can talk to second uncle. He was there when father told me to take him to Plum Blossom Mountain."

"Wait right here and don't go anywhere. I'll be right back!"

Ling Ling flew towards the top shelf of the tower. After reaching there, she picked up a book.

"She is the guardian of the Treasure Tower here. Oh right, I forgot to explain. This place is the one where the treasures of ours are kept. That's why there's two guardian statues outside."

"All the treasures that are made with the soul powers of our ancestors are here."

"The Plum Blossom Mountain can be dangerous for you. That's why I'm here to take the Revival Talisman."

" Once you keep that in your pocket, you'll have an extra life. For example, if you're killed, the Talisman will instantly bring you back to life. So it's a pretty rare treasure."

"Is Plum Blossom Mountain really that dangerous?" Long Chen asked.

"Not for me, but for you, it certainly is. In fact, I would have given you some defensive artifacts and weapons as well so you could keep you safe. Unfortunately, you humans can't use our soul treasures. Only the Revival Talisman will work on you," Zhu Chang replied.

The more Long Chen heard about the Plum Blossom Mountain, the more he felt intrigued about that place. Just what was that place?

He opened his lips to ask more about it but stopped as he heard another voice.

"Alright. I've confirmed with your uncle. It seems like you're telling the truth."

Ling Ling landed before the two of them.

"I told you I wasn't lying. Can I get what I asked for now?" Zhu Chang asked.

Ling Ling rolled her eyes as she clapped her hand.

A shelf that was lying in the corner of the tower flew straight to her. She picked up a paper talisman from it and handed it over to Zhu Chang. "Here."

"Thanks." Zhu Chang said as he turned to leave.

"Zhu Chang?"

Just as Long Chen and Zhu Chang were leaving, a voice came from behind.

"Yeah?" Zhu Chang turned around.

"It's good to see you back. Next time, don't run away without telling me at least." Ling Ling said, rolling her eyes. She turned back.. The mysterious shroud again appeared, making everything invisible for Long Chen.
