Chapter 225 - Ling Chen’s Promise.
After having a good and informative chat with the Sun Demi-God, Ling Chen didn't quickly leave the city but chose to stay for a few days in the Fire Phoenix Palace.
Though he was able to gather a lot of useful information from the Sun Demi-God, there're still many key pieces of information that he wasn't able to acquire as even the Sun Demi-God herself didn't know them.
Such as the location of the Great Luo Martial God's Tomb or the whereabouts of the Great Luo Martial God?
According to the Sun Demi-God, there's only one person throughout the whole world who knew this information and that was an old man known as Old Yan.
Not only Old Yan was the oldest Demi-God throughout the whole Great Luo World, but he was also the only survivor of the previous generation of Demi-Gods which had entered the Great Luo Martial God's Tomb 3000 years ago.
Though Ling Chen wanted to quickly meet with that legendary Old Yan, it was impossible at the moment as he has left the Heaven Suppression Region a few days ago.
Apparently, he went to the Divine Demon Beast Region in order to negotiate about the opening of the Great Luo Martial God's Tomb with the Beast Gods.
Ling Chen wasn't worried about not finding Old Yan. As one of the keepers or the possessor of one of the Nine Keys of the Great Luo Martial God's Tomb, even if he didn't look for Old Yan, he would at some point look for him because, without the key in his possession, they could never open the Tomb.
It was the main reason that he didn't quickly leave the city and decided to stay in the Fire Phoenix Palace for few days. He was waiting for the man known as Old Yan to make contact.
As for their little scheme and conspiracy, he didn't put much thought into it. In front of overwhelming strength, all schemes were meaningless. His only concern now was the Great Luo Martial God.
....
After leaving the Inner Garden of the Fire Phoenix Palace, Ling Chen was taken to a private residence within the palace's courtyard by princess Ziyi.
This residence was clearly meant for entertaining guests. It was quite large and quite roomy, and there were seven buildings within this residence itself, along with fifteen servants that could be summoned at any time, all of them beautiful.
"Young master, Princess." Upon their arrival, the fifteen maidservants all respectfully bowed to them.
The leader was a peak Martial Sovereign realm warrior and looked very beautiful and mature.
"Huang Min, this is Young master Ling, an esteemed guest of my master. Young master Ling will be staying with us for a while and I hope you'll do your best to meet all of his demands." Ordered princess Ziyi with a serious expression on her face.
"Yes, princess."Respectfully answered the leader as she acknowledged the princess's commands.
Having said that, princess Ziyi shifted his gaze towards Ling Chen before anxiously said." I know young master Ling must be tired, I won't disturb you any further. If there is anything you need, just instruct the servants. I will leave now."
"Good." Coldly uttered Ling Chen.
After hearing Ling Chen's answer, princess Ziyi didn't dare to stay any longer as she quickly left as though she was escaping from a devil. Seeing the princess's action, Ling Chen didn't get mad but merely smiled.
"Alright, take me to my people." Instructed Ling Chen as he shifted his gaze towards the tall and beautiful woman who was the leader of the maidservants.
"Yes, Young Master." Answered the maid before she made a gesture for Ling Chen to follow her.
Soon, Ling Chen was taken to a spacious and luxurious room where he saw Ling Lei and the others quietly waiting.
" Divine Father."
" Young master."
" Master."
Upon Ling Chen's arrival, they all stood up and greeted him. historical
"It's ok. You guys can stay sit. I have some stuff that I need to tell you." Answered Ling Chen with a slight smile on his face before he sat down. Following Ling Lei and the others did the same thing.
No matter how cold and emotionless look in the eyes of many people, he always seemed happy and carefree when he's in the presence of his children.
As for the maidservants, they all left, leaving Ling Chen and his group alone in the room.
After they all sat down, Ling Chen then proceeded in telling them all the information he got from the Sun Demi-God, including the fact that he was being targeted by the Great Luo Martial God.
As Ling Chen's children and close followers, Ling Chen didn't hide these things from them.
Upon hearing that the Great Luo Martial God was still alive and was using the whole world as his own personal cropland, everyone exclaimed in shock. Even Ling Lei and the other little devils. Though they weren't humans and didn't really care about them, they've heard the stories about the Great Luo Martial God and his contribution to the Human race.
Aside from that, their eyes were filled with killing intents. That was even more true for Ling Lei and the other little devils. Their killing intents were so thick that it became visible.
They didn't care whether it was the Great Luo Martial God or Buddha himself. The moment he targeted Ling Chen, he became their mortal enemies and they'll do whatever it takes to erase him from the face of the earth.
"Alright guys, you don't have to worry too much about it. We'll be staying for a few days in the city so you guys can go and have some fun. You'll need it, because the next time we leave, It'll be for the Great Luo Martial God Tomb's and the Great Luo Martial God's head." Uttered Ling Chen in a cold and emotionless tone before he left the room and went outside.
Standing outside, Ling Chen tilted his head and looked into the sky. At this moment, he seemed to be able to feel that above the blue sky, there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at him.
"I don't care who you are or your objective, but soon, you'll understand that you've messed with the wrong guy. That's a promise."
