Xun couldn't believe that Long Chen literally brought them to a Godly Clan, despite knowing that he needed to stay away from them.
She had literally told him that the Godly Beasts were going to kill him if they ever got to know about this thing.
She couldn't help but glare at Long Chen; however, she knew she needed to stay silent. Since they were safe until now, these people probably didn't know about Long Chen and little snow.
Still, she was prepared to scare Long Chen fiercely when she had the opportunity to talk to him. She kept her silence.
"You look slightly surprised to know where you are. But we can understand. Since you know about us, you might also know how rare it is for soone like us to bring mortals here or allow them to live here."
"But you don't need to worry. We'll treat you the best we can. As a matter of fact, why don't you take a seat? You must be hungry.? I'll have food for you arranged as well."
"Ah,n-no need. We just finished our dinner back ho before we were called here. I don't think we can eat more," Long Chen's mother took a step forward, replying.
Since she was the eldest woman, she believed it was her responsibility to lead.
As Long Chen had already finished the introduction while calling his family out, Zhu Chang's mother knew about everyone.
However, Long Chen's family didn't know anyone here.
"That's too bad. It would've been good to eat together. Still, I have a feeling that we'll have more opportunities to do that."
"For the mont, let start our introduction as well. I am Li Yi. I am the wife of the leader of the Godly Black Tortoise Clan. And he is my son, Zhu Chang. My husband and the others aren't here apparently."
" Anyways, I think you might be clueless about why you're all here. I think this might be the right ti for our sons to tell us how they actually t. I think you'll understand everything. And I'll also find out with you," Li Yi smiled. "Let's sit in the garden. There should be enough seats there."
"I think it's going to be a long story after all," she further continued.
She got off the bed and escorted everyone to the garden. Long Chen walked in the end with Zhu Chang, who couldn't help but complain.
"You shouldn't have agreed to her. It'll waste so much ti. I can already feel myself being bored just sitting."
Long Chen couldn't help but curse in his head. 'It's not like I wanted this. But how could I offend your mother.'
He didn't speak his thoughts out loud though.
He went along with the flow and bore with his boredom as he sat in the garden and started talking about how he t Zhu Chang and how the two of them traveled together.
He didn't tell them about his bets and that Zhu Chang owed him so promises. All he ntioned was that the two of them had a couple of contests on the way, including one which involved them fighting the enemies.
"Fascinating. Don't tell Chang'er went hard on you and defeated you too fast. He often does that. He's very competitive." Li Yi smiled wryly.
"Nope. On the contrary, I lost," Zhu Chang finally said sothing. He had been silent throughout, only speaking now.
"What? You actually lost?" Li Yi's lips opened in surprise. "Really?"
"Yep. He defeated fair and square. And before you ask, let tell you that I didn't go easy on him. Things just didn't work out for ," Zhu Chang said, rolling his eyes.
Hearing about Zhu Chang's defeat, his mother was really surprised, but Long Chen's family felt proud. Their Long Chen had defeated a godly beast.
The most stunned was Xun though. The others only knew that Godly Beasts were probably strong, but only Xun knew how freaking strong they were. She couldn't help but look at Long Chen.
She didn't know that Long Chen had just used the mont when Zhu Chang was distracted to kill all the enemies. If Zhu Chang were really serious, he would have no chance of victory.
He was supported by so planning and so luck which helped him win.
"What happened next?" Li Yi asked.
"After that, we continued our journey..."
Long Chen further continued the story, talking about how they split up on the island and how he faces the clan on the island, which tricked him into touching the heavenly artifact.
He also talked about ending up in Heavenly Prison and how he managed to get out with the help of Zhu Chang. He didn't ntion anything about his training there or already having the ability to step out of the prison by then.
"So, even though he says I helped him, he's the one who helped much more," Long Chen said.
Li Yi placed her hand on the head of her son. "You did good by not leaving a friend behind. I'm proud of you."
She was also very pleased. At first, she thought that Zhu Chang was an ordinary friend of Long Chen, but after knowing what he went through to save Long Chen, she understood the friendship might be much stronger.
These two were true friends now, and she was happy.
"And after that, you two ended up here. You went through a lot, it seems." Li Yi nodded. "But Chang'er. Even though I'm proud of you, what you did was really reckless."
"Going against the Heavenly Realm alone? What if sothing had happened to you? You were lucky that the Heavenly Emperor knew your father and went easy!"
"Next ti sothing like this happens, just contact us or directly to the Heavenly Emperor to tell him what you need. Don't create trouble for everyone!"
Zhu Chang rolled his eyes. "I know, I know. I'll be careful next ti, but I doubt he'll ever make the sa mistake to end up there?"
In the background, the maid finally returned to inform everyone that the food was ready.
...
After finishing food, Zhu Chang escorted Long Chen with his family to the courtyards which were near his courtyard. He wanted them to not lack anything.
Each person was given a separate courtyard to live in, but if they wanted, they could live in one too since the courtyards were very big on the inside.
Long Chen's parents selected a different courtyard. His grandfather and the rest selected one each as well.. Only his won selected to live on his own.
