"Alright. I think I have a way to take you to the Demon Emperor. He had some contact with some of the Kings of Immortal World to keep an eye on things. I might be able to contact him. But to get to him, he must be willing to call you to him. Otherwise, we won\'t even be able to meet him," The Immortal Queen reminded Long Chen as she held his hands.
A Portal opened before them, and the both of them entered inside the portal. The Portal soon closed.
Both of them came out of the Portal in the Western Part of the Immortal World. Now that the Immortal Queen was sure that the real Long Chen wasn\'t anywhere close, she could roam freely without worries.
"This is where we can contact him," she let out as she looked at the Castle ahead.
"Why this place?" Long Chen inquired.
"Because this place worked for the Demons. The Northern and Southern Empires worked for the Heaven while Western and Eastern worked for the Demonic Realm. It was to maintain checks and balances on each other," the Immortal Queen said as she advanced towards the Castle. "There must be a temple of Demons inside which we can use to contact them."
She openly entered the Castle with Long Chen, killing all the guards that even dared to stand before her. Fortunately, there weren\'t many like that since the aura around her was enough to send everyone else running away from her.
Without much obstruction, she managed to reach the depths of the Palace where a Temple was established. Only one person was allowed to go inside the Temple, and it was the King of the Western Empire, who had died at the hands of Long Chen already. The temple had been sealed for a long time.
The Immortal Queen placed her hand on the doors. All the defense formations shattered immediately as soon as her hand landed on them. The formation cast by the Western Emperor was nothing before the Immortal Queen. Fortunately, these formations weren\'t cast by the Demon Emperor himself, or it would\'ve been impossible even for her.
At the formation broke, the door was unsealed. The woman entered the Temple with Long Chen.
Inside the Temple, she noticed a massive Statue. The statue depicted a man. For some reason, the face of the Statue wasn\'t visible. It was surrounded by some mysterious mist that made it impossible to see him. Even though it was a statue, the aura itself around the statue was powerful enough to signify the strength.
"Is he the Demon Emperor?" Long Chen asked the Immortal Queen.
The lady shook her head. "He isn\'t the Demonic Emperor. He\'s the General of the Demon Empire. The strongest after the Demon Emperor and his most trusted Demon. You think there would be a Temple where people could be allowed a straight audience with the Demonic Emperor? We can only contact the Demon General, and if he agrees, we might be able to meet the Demon Emperor.\'
"Got it. Let\'s contact the General then."
"Have you prepared what you want to tell him? This might be your last chance. If you fail, we might never be able to meet the Demon Emperor!"
"I know. I understand that much," Long Chen nodded.
"Good then." The Immortal Queen bit her thumb, making it bleed. She placed her bleeding thumb on the foot of the massive Statue before stepping back.
"Now we wait," she let out, folding her hands.
Long Chen also started waiting, wondering if the Statue was going to come to life. However, nothing like that happened. Instead, the statue remained the way it was.
A mysterious voice filled the room. "Who are you? Why do you call me?"
"My Lord, Demon General!" The woman went down on her knees, also pulling Long Chen along with her. "We contacted you because we have something important to tell you, and we think the Demon Emperor deserves to know."
"What is it?" The authoritative voice inquired.
The Immortal Queen glanced at Long Chen, signaling him to speak.
Long Chen took a deep breath. The aura of the Demon General was certainly very strong. He wasn\'t even here yet; this aura was suffocating.
"My Lord, we know of a scheme of the Heavenly Emperor with which he plans to destroy the Demon Realm!" Long Chen exclaimed.
His words even shocked the Immortal Queen. Was he lying to the Demon General to get him an access? This was very dangerous. If they found out, they were going to kill them!
"Oh?" The Mysterious Voice became somewhat serious. "And how do you know that?"
"Because they intend to use me for it!" Long Chen explained. "Or rather, they intended to use my other half. Even though I came from a fragment of his soul, we are both different entities."
He told a story about how he was separated from Long Chen and Trapped in a mortal world, only to be helped by the Immortal Queen.
"To locate him, I peeked into his memories, and that\'s when I found this terrible plot!"
"What did you find?" The man asked, frowning.
"My other half has gone to the Heavenly Realm with his friend who was an heir of the Black Tortoise clan. They even spent the time together. It\'s there the Heavenly Emperor told him the plan. He was supposed to make friendship with all heirs of the God Beast Clans. In exchange, the Heavenly Emperor was going to give him immense strength."
"As you know, the heirs are the future clan leaders. If Long Chen managed to succeed in befriending them enough to make them side with the Heavens, the Heaven will be completely prepared to attack you. That might spell the end of the Demon Realm! That\'s why I came here to tell you the truth!" Long Chen finished explaining.
"Indeed, it is such a Vile Plan if true," the Demon General agreed. "But why have you come to us to tell it? What benefits do you receive?"
"I don\'t want any benefits. I just don\'t like my other self who sealed me in that godforsaken place. I don\'t want him to have a happy and successful life where he can get what he wants. If he helps the Heavenly Emperor, he would become too strong. Even I won\'t be able to stop him. That\'s why I came here to tell you. Because our enemies are the same!"
"As long as he lives, we can\'t have a better future! That\'s why I came here to tell you!" he declared.
