Chapter 1400 - 1400: Weak

"Mother, this is Long Chen. I met him in a Mortal World back," Zhu Chang introduced Long Chen to his mother. "He kept me engaged and helped me when I was stuck in the mortal world."

"He helped you?" The woman said as she looked towards Long Chen in the back. 

"Come to me," she said. 

Long Chen stepped ahead, wondering what she wanted to do. 

As he reached the woman, she simply placed her hand on the head of Long Chen. "Thank you so much for helping my son."

Long Chen looked at the lady, wondering what might be happening. She was thanking him for accompanying her son? What help did he do? He couldn't remember anything like that. Zhu Chang was being too humble, saying that he helped him. 

Long Chen could only nod in response to the woman. "I didn't do much."

"You're humble as well. Good kid," the woman smiled, looking at Long Chen. 

She again turned to Long Chen. "You got a good friend."

"Where is your father, though? Did he not come?"

"He was with me, but second uncle came and took him, saying it was something urgent."

"What could be more urgent than you? Whatever. Did you two eat anything? Let me call for the maid to bring something."

"Ah, mother. Shouldn't you be focused on eating something yourself first? You're the one who hasn't eaten anything after all. As for me, I ate on my way here."

"Nonsense. I can't trust you on that. You must eat before me."

"But mother, I have to show him around!"

"You can do it later. I don't think he'll mind," the woman replied.

She turned to look at Long Chen. "Will you?"

Long Chen knew he couldn't say he minded. She was in their home, and she had to side with the mother on this. 

"I don't." He said before looking at Zhu Chang, only to find him looking down. 

The woman called a maid and commanded her to bring food for all three of them as fast as she could. 

As the maid left to bring food, the woman shifted her attention to Long Chen, wanting to know more about him. 

"So Long Chen, where are you from?" The woman asked. "And how are you here alone? Did you also leave your family behind like my little brat did before running away?"

"Leaving my family behind? Nope. I always carry them with myself," Long Chen answered. 

"Carry them with you?" The woman asked, surprised. 

"Yeah. I keep them in my Inner World to keep them safe. If I hadn't done that, I would've had to leave them back at the Mortal World, which I didn't want to do," Long Chen further explained. 

"Ah, that's right. You humans can have an Inner World too. I had forgotten. That's not feasible for us though," the woman said, sighing.

"By the way, why don't you call them out? Let them be guests here as well. I think we have more than enough space to take care of them. You're a guest after all."

"Are you sure?" Long Chen asked. 

He wasn't really suspicious of the Black Tortoise Clan so far, but he knew that keeping his family here could be dangerous. If it was ever discovered that he had little Snow, his family might become a hostage here. 

Still, the chances of him being discovered were really low. Since they hadn't discovered it yet, he had a feeling that they weren't going to discover it until he let Little Snow out. 

Moreover, in this place, his Godly Weapon was also safe. So even if he wanted to use that, he didn't need to worry because a Heavenly Beast couldn't touch a God Grade weapon even if they wanted. 

The Heavenly Beasts could only use their soul weapons. That's why no one was worried about them stealing the God Grade weapons. They were worthless for them. Similarly, humans couldn't use Spirit Weapons. 

That's also why the Black Tortoise Patriarch and the Heavenly Emperor didn't make a bet with their supreme weapons. 

This place was basically the safest place for Long Chen, where he could use his powers to the fullest without having to worry about anything. And he just had to make sure that Little Snow was kept out of sight. 

That's why he had decided to not bring out any beasts that stayed in the Beast Mountain. Since they lived so close to Little Snow, there was a chance that they had some of her aura. 

That's also why he hadn't sent Snake Monarch to the beast Mountain. He sent the Snake Monarch to his Inner World since he needed to bring him out after finding the phoenix blood to help him unlock his bloodline. 

"Of course. Call them out. Let them enjoy our hospitality. Unless you think your inner world is better than our home?" The woman looked at Long Chen. 

"Fine. I'll bring them out." Long Chen didn't want to argue with Zhu Chang's mother since they still needed their help to find Phoenix Bloodline. 

Moreover, there weren't many risks that he could see as long as he was careful. 

He ultimately brought his family out, starting with the eldest like his father and grandfather. He later called out his mother and his wives, including Xun. He didn't forget Long Xue Ying either. 

Even though all of them were stronger, Zhu Chang's mother could see that they were many times stronger than Long Chen. 

"No wonder you keep them in your Inner World. They look very weak. It's alright though. They'll be safe here." She said. 

Long Chen's family wondered what was happening. Who was this lady who was calling them weak? After they had cultivated for so long, it was awkward to still be called weak. They couldn't help but wonder how strong they themselves were. 

There was only one person who recognized them, and it was none other than Xun. She could see their characteristics to recognize them. Moreover, she could also feel the energy in the surroundings. 

It was neither Qi nor Origin Energy. Instead, it was beastly energy. She understood immediately that she was in the world of Heavenly Beasts. 

"Are we in the Black Tortoise Realm?" She asked Long Chen. 

"Hmm? You were fast to recognize us. Not bad, young lady." Zhu Chang's mother smiled. "You're right. You'll be our guests here. So welcome to our Godly Clan."

"Godly Clan?" Even though Xun had expected to be in the world of Black Tortoise, to be in the Godly Clan in that realm came as a surprise for her.. She looked at Long Chen for confirmation, who nodded.
