Chapter 1541 Chapter 1541: Weak

"He murdered my father!" Baihu Yang came out, straight accusing Long Chen.

Initially, everyone refused to believe that it could even be possible. How can Long Chen kill someone like White Tiger King? However, they soon understood that it wasn't as impossible as they believed it to be, especially when they looked into the distance.

Long Chen was already fighting such a fierce Tribulation. That strength... It was nothing to laugh at. With that strength, it wasn't entirely impossible for him to kill the White Tiger King.

Moreover, the presence of the White Tiger King's core inside him... That could only be possible if Long Chen killed the White Tiger King and stole the core from him. However, why would that happen?

Based on the memories, Long Chen had quite a good equation with the White Tiger King as both of them navigated their path out of the Maze of Death together. From having such a good cooperation to becoming enemies of each other's life? That didn't make sense.

The question again returned to where it started! Just what happened between the moment that they left the Maze of Death and the moment they died?

Fortunately, now they had someone who could answer. Baihu Ling had been with Long Chen from the beginning, just like Xun was. If Xun couldn't answer, Baihu Ling could.

"Tell us. What happened?"

"She is still in shock. It's better if we don't make her repeat what happened a second time," Baihu Yang stepped forward, not wanting to let his sister go into that phase again by recalling that event.

"She already informed me once."

He made the two of his Soldiers take Ling back to the castle along with their father's body, leaving this dangerous place.

Ling was still not normal. She wasn't like before. If it were her old self, she would have resisted and demanded to stay here, but in her daze now, she didn't even react.

She left the place with her father's body, not even daring to glance back at Long Chen in the back.

*****

In one place, the Black Tortoise Clan Patriarch was listening to the story about what happened underground through Baihu Yang. In another place, the Demon Princess was still gazing at Long Chen in awe.

There was a great possibility that the person inside him was her Ancestor. Seeing just the sheer amount of strength that her ancestor was able to possess even if he wasn't in his real body, she couldn't help but be amazed. She wondered just how strong he must've been when he had a real body.

She also thought about helping him since they were from the same family in a way, but she didn't. She wasn't sure if she could be of much help against the lightning beasts. If anything, she might as well be an obstruction for them.

She just stood on the ground, observing all the battle skills that were used by Long Chen, trying to see how many she recognized and how many were the ancient Demon Skills that even she didn't know about.

"Hmm? It's not returning?" The Demon Emperor kept destroying the Lightning Beasts, trying to see just how many times they could return as stronger, but after he destroyed them for the hundredth time, the Lightning Tiger didn't make an appearance again.

To test his theory, he destroyed the Lightning Dragon, who was already destroyed by him ninety nine times. After the hundredth destruction, even the Lightning Dragon disappeared. Instead of getting stronger, the Tribulation only became stronger as it lost another tribulation beast.

"So that's the extent? And here I thought they could make it more fun. The humans really have easy tribulations. The thing about them being difficult... What exaggerations. If that's the extent, this is nothing!"

Instead of being happy about finding the limit of the Tribulation, the Demon King was really disappointed. The entire fun of the Tribulation was over.

Even though the Tribulation Beasts were now strong enough to destroy a world easily, they were pathetically weak for him. Now that he had lost all the fun of facing the Tribulation, he didn't extend it longer. There was no point in it for him if that was all there was to this tribulation.

He clapped his fist together. Smoke filled his domain from every side. The smoke made it impossible for anyone to see what had been happening inside the Domain. However, the smoke didn't last there for long.

Following a loud explosion inside the domain, the smoke started disappearing, revealing an empty domain.

The Tribulation was over. All the lightning beasts were gone, and so were the clouds in the sky. However, the Long Chen wasn't inside the Domain either. The domain was completely empty…

"Where did he go?" The Demon Princess exclaimed in shock. She couldn't believe that he had disappeared. How could he let him leave like that?

"Looking for someone?" A serene voice came from behind.

The Demon Princess turned around, finding Long Chen behind her. She went down on her knees instantly. "Senior, I was indeed looking for you."

There was not even a scratch on Long Chen's body at the moment. Whatever wounds he had received were healed. Only some marks on his clothes could be seen.

The Demon Emperor observed the Demon Princess, noticing that she had the Demon Bloodline. She appeared to be from his clan!

Long Chen's eyes shone momentarily as if he was looking through the Princess Soul.

"Not bad. You do have some talent. Quite young and good cultivation as well. Too bad, you're still not on the same level as my disciple," he exclaimed, still being possessed by the Demon Emperor.

"Identify yourself. Who are you?" he asked the Demon Princess. "And why were you looking for me?"

He knew she was from his species, but that still didn't explain how she came here looking for him. There was no way a Demon would've known that he was here.

"Senior, I am the Princess of the Demonic Emperor. My father rules over the Demons. I wish to invite Senior to meet my father. He would be really pleased to meet with Ancestor."

The Demon Emperor smirked. "And how are you so sure that I'm your Ancestor? Just because I used the skills, you recognize? You think humans can't use a Demon's skills?"

"Senior, although it's true that humans can use a Demon's Skill, but only a great demon can use those skills with such control and precision. You are our Ancestor, and that's why I respectfully invite you to our realm to celebrate your return. It's time you came home, Senior."
