"Well, I doubt they got happiness in serving you. If they did, they wouldnât have gone after you. In your ego, you were so long that you couldnât see their plight."
" You forced them to listen to your commands and killed the ones that made mistakes, didnât you? Why do you think they wouldnât have betrayed you? For once, keep yourself in there once and then say, what would you have done in that situation?"
Long Chen was amazed that this guy couldnât see why he was betrayed. He didnât know how wrong he was.
"What would I do in their situation? I canât imagine since Iâd never be in their position. Iâm not a weakling like them. They were weak; I protected them from the world. I shouldâve been thanked!" Blood Dragon Emperor replied.
"Because of me, they had a strong leader! Because of me, no one dared to attack us Blood Dragons! Let alone be thanked; I was stabbed in the back! Just let me get my body back! Iâll destroy all those who betrayed me!" he declared.
"Is that so? How will you destroy the ones who are already dead?" Long Chen asked.
"What do you mean?"
"The humans that trapped you, theyâre already dead. As for the Blood Dragons, theyâre also dead. Only a rare few blood Dragons exist, and they are the ones that were born much after you were sealed," Long Chen replied.
" So who will you have your revenge on?" he asked.
"I donât care! Iâll destroy everyone! Iâll destroy all the humans and Blood Dragons! So what if the ones from my time arenât alive? Younglings will pay for the sins of their Ancestors!" Blood Dragon Emperor firmly stated.
"And then you say that you donât understand why you were betrayed," Long Chen let out, rolling his eyes.
"Anyway, Iâm done. I donât think youâre going to change," Long Chen let out, taking a sip from the wine bottle.
He shifted his attention to the statue which was standing right beside him.
"You said your creator had a world traveling stone?" Long Chen asked the statue.
The statue didnât say anything.
"Where was that statue kept?" Long Chen asked.
"It was kept in the Ancient Treisi City in his home," the statue answered.
"Treisi City?" Blood Dragon Emperor asked, frowning.
"Have you heard of it?" Long Chen asked the Blood Dragon Emperor. "If itâs true, we can try searching that place. Tell me where it is."
"Itâs useless. You canât find it there," the Blood Dragon Emperor replied.
"How do you know that?" Long Chen asked.
The Blood Dragon Emperor lazily sat on the table. "Because thatâs the one I had. That stone was already found."
"What?"
"Thatâs right. One of my servants found the world traveling stone there when they were passing through that place. They brought it back and gave it to me," Blood Dragon Emperor explained.
"Then how did this end up in the Dark Spirit Island?" Long Chen asked.
"I tossed it there. Itâs that simple," Blood Dragon Emperor replied.
"Why would you do that? That was a precious thing!"
"Why wouldnât I do that? That thing was torturing me! The more I looked at that, the more I felt like using it to go back to the Dragon Realm once again. I knew if I had that thing, I would take this stupid decision one day or the other," the Blood Dragon Emperor explained
"So I decided to send that stone far away from me! The next day, I sent one of my dragons to throw the stone on the Dark Spirit Island inside the Beast World," he continued.
"Why on the Dark Spirit Island especially?" Long Chen asked, frowning. "There were other places too. Or you couldâve just commanded your Dragon to hide the stone somewhere and to never tell you? Did you really have to make it so difficult for me?"
"Why would I make it difficult for you? I didnât even know who you were," Blood Dragon Emperor retorted.
"I just didnât want a human to find it. If my Dragon had hidden it in places where humans could reach, they would have found it one day or another."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Thatâs why I had it kept in the dark spirit island in the Beast World. Humans canât go to Beast World, and Beasts canât go to Dark Sprint Island. So it was the safest place to make sure no one ever found it." he continued.
"Well, now youâll help me find it yourself. Letâs see how difficult that place is," Long Chen let out, taking another sip of wine. He kept the statue back in his storage ring.
"Iâm going to sleep. Itâs time for you to sleep as well. Iâll be sending you to a beautiful place. Donât roam around too much. When itâs morning, Iâll call you out," He told the Blood Dragon Emperor.
"Are you scared that Iâll kill you in your sleep if I stay here? Donât forget; Iâm inside your Tamed Beast. If you die, Iâll die too. You donât have to be so paranoid!"
"I know about that. But who knows what you might do when Iâm not looking. Even if youâre inside the Snake Monarchâs body, youâre still the Blood Dragon Emperor. You have millions of years of ancient knowledge," Long Chen answered.
The Blood Dragon Emperor was too knowledgeable to be left alone. He also had the knowledge of formations.
Long Chen didnât want him to carve some strange formation or use some trick to escape when Long Chen wasnât here to control him.
"I canât leave my sleeping body near it. Enjoy the night in my Inner World. Iâm sure youâll have fun there. Iâll make it so that you get good weather to sleep," he added.
Before the Blood Dragon Emperor could even say anything, Long Chen sent him to his Inner world.
He didnât choose the Apocalypse World for him though. He sent him to his ordinary inner world, but he selected a place that was far away from his family.
The Blood Dragon Emperor disappeared from the real world and appeared in the Inner World in a green field. There was no civilization as far as the Blood Dragon Emperor could see, but there was a pond nearby.
Soothing winds were flying, making it a perfect atmosphere for him to sleep.
"Itâs his Inner World? Something seems odd about this place. I donât know what itâs about this place, but itâs not ordinary.. Thereâs some strange presence that I can feel here, and itâs not his presence," he muttered.
