Rise Of The Demon God

Chapter 1426 - 1426

"Who are you to call me crazy?!" Yui Ling responded. "You stole my key, and I'm crazy for asking him back?!"

"Key? You guys found one of the keys? Not bad at all. I also located one. Now we just need one more key," Bai Gu said, smiling.

"We didn't find it; I did! They snatched the key from my hand!" Yui Ling informed Bai Gu.

"Why would he? I mean, it's not like holding a key gives any benefit? They're just keys we need to enter. In the end, all the three keys would have to be used. No one can enter without keys," Bai Gu responded. He looked at Zhu Chang. "Did you steal the key?"

"Do you think I would need to steal the key? I can take her out anytime I want," Zhu Chang said lazily. "She's lying. I didn't take anything from her hand."

He wasn't lying either since he technically hadn't stolen anything. It was done by Long Chen.

"It doesn't matter. I think both of you need to calm down first and not fight. We're all here for the same thing, it seems. We can work together." Bai Gu smiled, landing on the ground.

"Ah, Bai Gu, you know I have no idea what's happening here. I don't even know what you need the keys for and what's happening. Why are you all here?" Zhu Chang asked.

"I just approached her to get some answers. She refuses to explain. Will you tell me something?" he further explained.

"Hahaha, of course. I think it's no secret anymore since almost all Godly Beast Clans know about it. I'm sure even your old man knows. I'm surprised he didn't tell you anything," Bai Gu said, laughing.

"Also, we've been friends at the Academy. You helped me so much during that time. The least I can do is provide you with some answers."

"You now have a way to your answers. Please return my key," Yui Ling commanded Zhu Chang.

"Well, sorry. I might have given you if you had answered before. But not anymore. However, as Bai Gu says, the keys give no additional benefit. So I don't think it would matter either way. Unless you want to fight me for the keys?" Zhu Chang asked, frowning.

"You..." Yui Ling felt discontent, but she knew she couldn't fight here. Zhu Chang wasn't alone now. And Bai Gu was Zhu Chang's friend. In case things escalated too far, he was always going to help him.

"Alright, I am sorry for behaving rudely before. I'll tell you everything personally. If you promise to return the key afterward."

Zhu Chang glanced at Long Chen. "What do you say?"

Long Chen shook his head. Since the girl wanted it so much, it didn't make that much sense. If the key was useless, why would she lower her ego and apologize just for the key? It was better to keep the key than return it.

'"Sorry, it looks like the consensus is against giving you the key. You can leave or stay with us, but you won't be getting the key," Zhu Chang told the lady.

"You... You will regret it!" Yui Ling let out before she flew away.

Zhu Chang watched him leave, amused at her threat.

"Looks like she's really angry at you," Bai Gu said, patting the shoulder of Zhu Chang.

" The question should be when isn't she?" Zhu Chang smiled. "Anyways, what's the matter with this place? Can you tell me now?"

"Ah, should I really tell you here?" Bai Gu asked, glancing towards Long Chen.

"Don't worry. He is a friend. I trust him. You can say anything," Zhu Chang answered.

He also removed the barrier for Long Chen now that the battle was over.

"You must've been the Tenth Godly Star, right?" Bai Gu asked.

"Yeah. The one which recently appeared. What about it?" Zhu Chang asked.

"You know what it implied?"

"That a new godly beast has appeared," Zhu Chang asked. "It's certainly a big deal that a New Godly Beast came to this world at this time, but what about it?"

"You aren't half wrong. It's not only you who thought of this. In fact, almost everyone thought the same," Bai Gu said. "That's why almost every clan had been trying to find the new beast."

"Everyone except Black Tortoise Clan, I suppose. But I did hear that your clan was helping some others in searching," he added. "Leaving that aside, you know the result of that search, right?"

"Yeah. No one has been able to locate the Godly Beast so far. It's somewhat odd. Even after so long, no one found it."

"Exactly. That's the most strange part about this. For so long, no one has been able to locate the new godly beast, which doesn't make sense. If it were truly a newborn beast, it would've been easy to find it."

"Are you implying what I think you are?" Zhu Chang asked, frowning.

"Yeah. That's a new theory that is going around. No new godly beast can be so good at hiding. Only someone experienced in their powers can be this his. That means it's not a new Godly Beast who is born... But an old, godly beast who has come to life," Bai Gu said, sighing.

"Old Godly Beast? There were only nine. How can there be another? This doesn't make sense," Zhu Chang let out.

Long Chen had a bad feeling about this though. He knew Little Snow was the Ancient Myriad Beast who was one of the first Ancestral Beast. The Tenth Star was probably for her.

"You're wrong. There weren't always nine Godly Beasts. Nine came from the first two Godly Beasts who we call Ancestor Beasts."

"You mean the tenth star is because an Ancestral Beast has returned? Why would it stay hidden if it was an Ancestral Beast! They should be able to destroy anything they want!" Long Chen chimed in, trying to throw them off.

"You're not wrong. The Ancestral Beasts are indeed strong, but that's the exact strength that can keep them hidden from all of us. Otherwise, it shouldn't be that easy," Bai Gu said.

"Moreover, there is a theory that the Ancestral Beast has probably just come to life, so it's still weak and in hiding. So the Godly Beasts want to find him to help him and bring him closer to their own Clan for individual benefits," he added.

"Also, we even know which Ancestral Beast it is that has returned."

"Who?" Zhu Chang asked. "Why is it that you all know these things, and I don't?"
