Chapter 5782 - Fooling Around
What surprised Long Chen the most was that this was a powerful member of the Demon Emperor level among the demon race. This woman appeared to be in her forties, but her actual age was probably hundreds or even thousands of times older than she appeared.
This middle-aged woman had a single horn on her head, and her appearance, while not stunning, was certainly more attractive than the previous woman he had encountered. As soon as she appeared, the young man and woman quickly left. When she scrutinized Long Chen from head to toe, he couldn't help but feel a bit uneasy, fearing that he might have revealed some weakness.
"Come with me!" The middle-aged woman unexpectedly reached out to grab Long Chen. He instinctively pulled back his hand, and the woman frowned momentarily but then smiled and said, "What are you afraid of? It's not the first time, and besides, all your admirers are in seclusion right now."
Long Chen muttered to himself, "Seriously..."
A thousand thoughts raced through Long Chen's mind. This was the first time he had felt such sympathy for Yundao's encounters with these women. How many people did he have to deal with?
While he was lost in thought, the middle-aged woman grabbed Long Chen's hand again, and at that moment, her face lit up with excitement. "Wow, your spiritual energy is so abundant, it's almost overflowing, isn't it?"
Long Chen: "..."
He could use Yundao's aura to conceal his own, but he couldn't hide his life force. In an instant, this middle-aged woman sensed the vastness of Long Chen's life force, like an endless ocean.
She didn't doubt Long Chen's identity, thinking that it was because of his long "idle" period that his life force had become so abundant.
Being pulled along by the middle-aged woman, Long Chen's scalp was about to explode. Was there no way to escape this?
Long Chen reluctantly let himself be led by the woman. His mind was racing, trying to find a way to escape, but it seemed that this woman held a high position here, and everyone gave her a wide berth.
"Are you still capable of having children at your age? Why are you dragging me around like this?" Long Chen cursed in his heart, but he had no way out.
Just as Long Chen was getting anxious, an elderly man came walking toward them. When he saw the old man, Long Chen's heart skipped a beat. This old man exuded a terrifying demonic aura, and his pressure was formidable. He was a mid-level God-Emperor.
The old man had a cold and dignified expression. When he saw the middle-aged woman and Long Chen, he furrowed his brow and said, "Yumo, it's already this late, and you're still fooling around with this useless stuff? The Nest Lord has called a meeting, you know."
"What? I didn't know," the middle-aged woman was surprised.
"They just informed us. Let's go!" The old man said before walking away without even glancing at Long Chen.
The middle-aged woman looked at Long Chen, her face showing some hesitation as if she were calculating something.
Long Chen thought to himself, "Is she planning something unexpected?"
Finally, the woman clenched her teeth and took out a nameplate from her waist and handed it to Long Chen. Her face carried a hint of threat. "Hold onto my nameplate, go to my dwelling, and wait for me. If I can't find you when I return, I'll reveal all your secrets."
After saying that, she turned and walked away, leaving Long Chen standing there, holding the nameplate.
"This is really chaotic," Long Chen thought. It seemed that Yundao had some kind of leverage over this woman, and in turn, she was using it.
Long Chen was left alone, holding the nameplate. He considered that this could be a significant opportunity for him.
Long Chen's heart raced with excitement. He wondered if this nameplate could help him directly access the altar.
"Let's try it," Long Chen thought. He clenched his teeth and walked forward, as he believed this was the perfect time. The high-ranking members of the demon clan were currently in a meeting to discuss their conflict with the Purple Blood clan. With the nameplate in hand, he ventured deeper into the demon lair.
The tunnels were like a vast ant colony, and Long Chen would have been completely lost if he didn't have Yundao's map. However, he was gradually nearing the core of the demon territory.
As he got closer, it became desolate and empty. After walking for a while without seeing anyone, it became clear that this area was off-limits to ordinary people.
Suddenly, he reached a large door, and as he saw it, a cold voice rang out, "The sacred altar's restricted area, intruders die!"
Immediately, a terrifying pressure locked onto Long Chen, rendering him unable to move.
Long Chen was taken aback. There was actually a terrifying God-Emperor guarding this place. He also realized that the powerful presence he had felt when he extended his spiritual sense earlier must have come from this person.
Long Chen couldn't help but shudder. The gap between a regular Ninth Rank God-Emperor and a First Rank God-Emperor with a Purple Crown was beyond description.
Long Chen had only encountered a God-Emperor level expert once before he entered the Celestial Nation, and after entering, he realized that there was a vast difference between a regular God-Emperor and a First Rank God-Emperor with a Purple Crown.
However, when faced with the God-Emperor's lock-on, Long Chen calmly said, "I have Lady Yumo's nameplate. I'm here on important business."
Upon hearing Long Chen's words, the pressure on him eased slightly, and he quickly took out Lady Yumo's nameplate.
As soon as the nameplate appeared, a bony hand emerged from the void and seized it. Then, a gray-robed old man materialized.
This gray-robed old man was incredibly thin, resembling a dried-up corpse. His eyes were sunken and had a yellowish, withered look, making him appear quite eerie.
"You dare deceive me, young man? You're courting death!" The gray-robed old man's expression changed when he saw the nameplate, and a terrifying pressure came crashing down like a mountain.
