157 The Invitation. (2/2)
”There aren't many things that can escape my eyes.” Ling Chen answered nonchalantly.
”Such a big tone!” The Sun Demi-God scowled while looking at Ling Chen. A bit later, she continued on: ”I didn't come out to talk about such trivial matters. We need to talk about the Key of the Great Luo Martial Tomb that's in your possession .”
Upon hearing the Sun Demi-God's words, Ling Chen couldn't help but reveal a surprised expression on his face despite trying to stay calm.
Seeing the surprised expression on Ling Chen's face, the Sun Demi-God couldn't but chuckle as she said: ” You don't have to be surprised, we all know you have the key ever since you killed the Saint Demon Beast Bai Wudi.”
”Little guy, it seemed like there's still so many things you don't know. Almost half of the fifteen great influences in the Heaven Desolate Region are nothing but puppets of the Ten Demi-Gods. They created them for the sole purpose of looking for that key which they already knew was somewhere in the Heaven Desolate Region. We have eyes everywhere in the Heaven Desolate Region.”
”However, we would have never thought that the key was in the hand of that little tiger all that time. By the time we found out, you've already exterminated the Saint Tiger Demon's Clan and took possession of the key.”
”And when we were about to look for you in the Heaven Desolate Region, you were already long gone. As the saying goes, a monk might be able to flee, but the temple cannot. Ever since you disappeared, we've placed the Heavenly Demon Sect under heavy surveillance just in case you came back.”
Upon hearing the last sentence of the Sun Demi-God, Ling Chen hostility suddenly soared with crimson killing intent. At the same time, a cold glimmer flashed in his eyes creating a chilling and penetrating air that dug all the way to one's bones as he spoke: ” If you guys dare to touch the Heavenly Demon Sect, I'll make sure you all die in the most gruesome and inhumane way.”
Meanwhile, the Sun Demi-God was gazing intensely at Ling Chen to catch every action of his to judge whether these words were just an empty threat. However, seeing the solemn and determine expression on Ling Chen's face as well as the insane murderous intent that was emanating from his body, she knew that Ling Chen wasn't joking.
”It seems that you are confident enough.” The Sun Demi-God slowly spoke. It was rare for someone to bluster like this in front of her; even the other Demi-Gods would not necessarily be able to speak such arrogant words to her.
Ling Chen glanced at her and said with a chilling smile on his face: ” Then try me.” They were such dull words yet they carried an imposing and majestic aura that shot straight to the sky.
Looking at the confident look on Ling Chen's face, the Sun Demi-God couldn't help but laugh as she shook her head and retorted: ”Hehehe, you are a feisty one, aren't you? But don't worry little guy, we wouldn't stoop so low as to use your families to threaten you. Just like you, we have families that we also care about. We only care about one person and that's you.”
”Anyway, I can't stay long outside in that state. Why don't you stop by the Sun God Palace so we can have a little chat? This Empress has a business proposal to offer you and I'll also tell you everything you want to know, whether it's about the Great Luo Martial Tomb or why they called you the Fateless Monster.”
Having said that, The Sun Demi-God didn't even give Ling Chen the chance to answer as her fiery shadow abruptly receded back within Sima Yun's body.
