Chapter 1399 - 1399: Plum Blossom Mountain
The massive Palace had quite a lot of people. He didn't expect there to be so many people. Just with his bare eyes, he was able to see around a thousand people in the surrounding area.
Most of these people went down on their knees as soon as they saw Zhu Chang's father.
"You may rise!" Zhu Chan commanded all the Direct clan members.
"Get back to what you were doing," he added as he started walking towards the courtyard of his, which was at the center of the mansion.
In essence, he had a home inside a home.
After commanding his men, he left with Zhu Chang and his son.
"This is all your house?" Long Chen asked, smiling. "Rich people surely are different."
They had a whole world for themselves. On the way, Long Chen even noticed many rare herbs. There was no way this clan lacked cultivation resources.
While people like him had to struggle for even the cheapest of resources at the start, Zhu Chang grew up with so much that he could literally distribute all the excess resources to an entire mortal world, and he was still going to have some excess left.
"How big was your house?" Zhu Chang asked Long Chen. "I have seen the houses of Mortals. They're not that small either."
"My house? Are you looking at that statue in the distance?" Long Chen asked, pointing towards a turtle statue in the distance.
"Yeah."
"My house covered the area that the statue is covering."
"Isn't that too small? The houses that I saw were a hundred times bigger," Zhu Chang replied.
"You probably saw Palaces of Mortal World leaders."
"You weren't one in yours?" Zhu Chang asked, surprised.
"Leader? Nope. I was born in the weakest village in the mortal world. The strongest cultivator in my entire country was only at the Earth Realm," Long Chen replied.
"You climbed from a place like that? Where did you find the resources that you needed?" Zhu Chang asked. "I thought you would have had the support of your world at least to develop your talent?"
"Support of the world?" Long Chen asked, smiling. "I don't think there was anything like that. Instead, many powerful people of the world were after my life."
Zhu Chan didn't respond, but he was also hearing Long Chen's story while walking ahead.
"Then how did you become so strong? What was your secret?" Zhu Chang asked.
"My secret?" Long Chen asked, amused. "I don't think there was any. I just kept going on with life, trying to be stronger than I could be. As for resources, I took them from my enemies who tried to kill me."
He couldn't just tell about his bloodline since that was also linked with Little Snow. He didn't want to give them any clue that could alert them about the whereabouts of Little Snow.
"That's amazing. From that point, you managed to climb to the Immoral World at such a young age! Becoming strong enough to take out the Immortal Emperors. Not bad for a mortal." Zhu Chang laughed, patting the shoulder of Long Chen.
"Chang'er?" Zhu Chan called out.
"Yeah, father?" Zhu Chan asked.
"Your friend isn't half bad. Why don't you take him to Plum Blossom Mountain after meeting with your mother?"
"Plum Blossom Mountain?" Zhu Chang asked, surprised. "But father? You will let me go there after what I did there last time?"
"You mean when you destroyed half the mountain?" Zhu Chan asked, rolling his eyes. "Yeah. Don't do that again. It took me a lot of time to repair that. Fortunately, you hadn't hurt the core of the Plum Blossom Mountain area, or even I would've been able to bring it back."
"You won't do that again, right?"
"Ah, N-not at all." Zhu Chang smiled wryly.
"What is Plum Blossom Mountain?" Long Chen asked.
"It's a great place for youngsters. You'll see when you get there. I think it should be the time when the Plum Blossom Mountain opens," Zhu Chang replied.
Seeing the excitement of Zhu Chang, even his father was pleased. He was happy that Zhu Chang had found a friend who could keep him engaged. With him around, he didn't have to worry about Zhu Chang running away again.
Long Chen could only nod, wondering what that place was.
Zhu Chan finally stopped at the courtyard of his, but just as he was about to open it, he heard someone call from behind.
He turned around, noticing his youngest brother running towards him, calling, "Brother!"
"What?" he asked.
"It's good that you're back. I need you urgently!"
"Can you tell me what happened, Zhu Gu?" Zhu Chan asked.
Zhu Gu looked around, frowning. "I can't tell you here. Please come. I think it's worth your time. I know you just came back with your son, and you might be interested in meeting Sister-in-law, but this is more important!"
"Sigh, fine!" Zhu Chan could only nod. He turned to Zhu Chang. "Go inside and tell your mother I brought you back. And only after that can you start preparing for departure to Plum Blossom Mountain. I shall be back soon."
Zhu Chan left with his brothers, talking to them.
"I wonder what might be so important," Zhu Chang looked back at his father. He couldn't hear anything though. It was as if his uncles had cast a barrier around them as they left so others couldn't hear them.
Zhu Chang shook his head, turning his attention back to the door. He pushed the door open and stepped inside.
He could see a woman sleeping on the bed. The woman looked to be barely thirty years old.
He walked closer to his mother.
"Mother?"
"Chang'er?" As soon as Zhu Chang's voice filled the room, his mother opened eyes.
"It's me," Zhu Chang nodded his head. "I heard you weren't eating?"
"Where had you gone! I was so worried! How could I eat when my boy was alone in the world, facing dangers!" His mother replied.
Zhu Chang smiled wryly. "What dangers. I had gone to Mortal World. If even Mortal Worlds could have dangers to me, then won't it be too embarrassing?" Zhu Chang rolled his eyes. "Don't worry. I was perfectly safe there."
"Who is he?" The woman asked, finally noticing Long Chen in the back.
"He? He is my friend," Zhu Chang replied.
"Friend?" The woman looked stunned. Her son had finally made a friend? What was this miracle?
"A-are you telling the truth?" Long Chen asked.
"Of course. Why would I lie?" Zhu Chang replied.. "Let me introduce him."
