"If there's a next time, I won't forget to inform you," Zhu Chang said, smiling.
He left with Long Chen.
"Can you at least tell me now what the Plum Blossom Mountain is?" Long Chen asked, leaving the tower.
"As I said, you'll see when we get there. Just know that it's a very fun place. And when I say fun, you can understand what I mean," Zhu Chang smiled. "Just keep that Talisman with you always. Don't forget it at home tomorrow, alright?"
Long Chen nodded. He was too lazy to ask again and again. It was clear that Zhu Chang wasn't going to answer.
"I had another question to ask you," Long Chen said.
"Go ahead. What question?"
"I wanted to ask if there is a place where I can find Phoenix Blood?" Long Chen asked.
"Phoenix Blood? Why the heck would you want such a thing? Don't you realize that all the rumors about Phoenix Blood being able to help human cultivation are a lie?" Zhu Chang asked, slightly surprised.
"It's for Snake Monarch. He has a bloodline that's suppressed. I don't know what that bloodline is, but I do know that a droplet of Phoenix Blood can activate his Bloodline. Can you tell me if it's possible to find a droplet of the blood of phoenix?" Long Chen asked.
"That... I don't think you would find any Phoenix Blood here. Maybe you might find some in Plum Blossom Mountain. The chances are low though," Zhu Chang replied, frowning.
"The only place that would have Phoenix Blood for sure would be the phoenix realm. Or you can directly ask a Phoenix for her blood?" Zhu Chang suggested. "That should be much faster."
"It's alright even if I can't find Phoenix Blood drop in the market. Just tell me where I can find a Phoenix. I'll ask them personally.'
"Where to find Phoenixes...? I think you can find them in their own world. There's no certainty to find them anywhere else. Who knows, maybe one might come to the. Plum Blossom Mountain as well? We'll have to see."
"Now I'm even more curious about your Plum Blossom Mountain. Why can I find a Phoenix there?"
"Let alone Phoenix; you can even find the Dragons or the White Tigers. It's a special place. I don't think I can describe it in words. You'll have to experience it personally." Zhu Chang patted the shoulder of Long Chen.
"So, where do you want to go next? Should I show you around the clan? Or shall we see the city instead?"
"Because we'll be leaving tomorrow."
"Can I ask how long will it take for us to come back from the Plum Blossom Mountain?" Long Chen asked.
"Well, it depends. In General, it'll take seven days, I think. It might take more as well."
"How long did you spend there when you went there?" Long Chen asked.
"I spent only one day, but that might be because I went a bit overboard and destroyed quite a lot of it," Zhu Chang scratched the back of his head. "After that, father banned me from going there."
"May I ask what made you go overboard?" Long Chen asked.
"I was challenged by someone to fight. How was I supposed to know that he was so weak that he'd die in one punch? His friends came back to annoy me for killing him and... I guess you can imagine the rest."
"Sigh, I guess I can," Long Chen smiled. "So it's a place where battles are common. I have a feeling I'm going to like that place."
"I don't think you should try fighting anyone there. Even though others are weak, that's when compared to me. When it comes to humans, it might be dangerous for you. So just let me handle the rest."
"Don't worry. I think I can protect myself," Long Chen smirked. A dark shine flashed in his eyes momentarily. For some reason, the thought of battles often excited him now.
Moreover, he didn't need to hide anything here, except for the fact that he was related to Little Snow. Everything else was perfectly fine.
"If you say so," Zhu Chang shrugged lazily. "How about we test the theory then?"
He believed that Long Chen was really underestimating the dangers and that he hadn't come to terms with where he actually was. He didn't know how dangerous this place could be, compared to the Mortal Worlds.
He felt that giving Long Chen a glimpse of this world was good for him. As it was going to keep him safe from the upcoming dangers.
"Test it? How?"
"Not everyone in our clan is as strong as me. There are certainly people that are younger and similar to the people you might see in the Plum Blossom Mountain. I can arrange a practice battle with them. You can didn't them and gauge your strength. Do you want to try?"
"That wouldn't be half bad." Long Chen smiled.
"Good. Come with me then."
Zhu Chang stepped inside the portal again. Long Chen followed him, finding himself back in the Portal Arena.
He followed Zhu Chang and entered a different portal.
"This is the place," he said, stepping out of the portal.
Long Chen found himself standing inside a massive arena. There weren't many people here though. There seemed to be only around a hundred youngsters.
Even though they all looked as young as Zhu Chang, looking at their strength, Long Chen had a feeling that they were much younger than Zhu Chang in reality.
All the youngsters seemed to be practising their skills.
Soon, first person noticed Zhu Chang.
"Senior Brother Zhu! You're back!" The youngster yelled, attracting the attention of everyone.
Everyone stopped practice and started looking at Zhu Chang.
"Senior Brother Zhu, welcome back!" They bowed in respect, joining their hands.
"It looks like your training is going great. You're growing really strong. It looks like I'll have to worry about my position as the strongest in this generation," Zhu Chang said jokingly.
"Senior Brother is too kind," the youngsters replied.
"Senior Brother, who is the Demon with you?" One of them asked.
They literally thought that Long Chen was a demon from his eyes.
"He is my friend. His name is Long Chen. You must treat him with respect, alright?" Zhu Chang replied.
"Greetings, Senior Chen," the youngsters greeted Long Chen as well.? Since Zhu Chang called him friend, they had to treat him as a senior.
"That's much better. Anyways, Long Chen wanted to see the skills of our youngsters. So I want one of you to take part in a practice battle with him. Who is willing?" Zhu Chang asked.
As soon as he finished his question, almost all of the hundred people raised their hands.
