Chapter 1365: Challenge

" Here I am, thinking about making you able to take my place, and there you are, still going around creating trouble for others. You're not going anywhere anymore. You're coming back with me. Enough  playing around!" Zhu Gong declared. 

Zhu Chang could only lower his head, glaring at the Heavenly Emperor. He knew who was the reason behind this mess. It was clear for him that the Heavenly Emperor had contacted his father, telling him about his whereabouts.

He didn't contact the Heavenly Emperor first because he didn't want his father to find it. And that's exactly what happened.

"Just my freaking luck," Zhu Chang cursed, frowning. He glared at the Heavenly Emperor. "Are you happy now? You got me caught! Now free Long Chen!" 

"Who is this Long Chen, if I may ask?" Zhu Gong asked, amused. Why was his son caring for someone else's freedom? Just what was so special about this guy?"

"Apparently he is your son's friend. He accidentally ended up in our prison. And instead of coming to me to resolve the problem, your son broke inside one of my prisons,  destroying the barrier and allowing the real criminals to escape," The Heavenly Emperor explained. 

"Your son created a lot of damage in this place. You're lucky that I didn't kill him," he added. "Now, how will you compensate me for the damages?"

"Isn't it your fault for accidentally sending a friend of my son to your prison?" Zhu Gong responded. 

"That's why I would've released that guy if he had come to me. But your son destroyed my prisons. Thousands of strong criminals are running amok in this world because of your son, and I still let him go free," the Heavenly Emperor declared. 

"Fine. What do you want in return?  Why go round and round?" Zhu Gong asked, smiling. "You already have all the wealth and treasure. I don't think I can give you anything that you don't own already."

"Give me my bracelet!" The Heavenly Emperor declared. 

"Ah, hahahaha. So you haven't forgotten about it even after all this while? That's funny." Zhu Gong burst into laughter. 

"What is he talking about? Did you steal his bracelet?" Zhu Chang asked his father. 

"Steal? Nonsense. Do you think your father is a thief? I won it after I defeated him in the past," Zhu Gong responded. 

"Defeated him? He did say he fought you before, but the way he talked about it, it was as if he won. Man, so he was defeated. No wonder he helped you. He was probably scared that you'd come to him for answers if he let me escape. So much for the Heavenly Emperor's reputation," Zhu Chang said, keeping his voice high enough for the Heavenly Emperor to hear clearly. 

He was already caught. The last thing he could do was damage the self respect of the Heavenly Emperor so he'd be forced to let him escape by engaging his father in battle.  

"Well, he does talk big. I'm not surprised." Zhu Gong smirked. 

"It wasn't a proper battle. It was just a bet to see if I could break your defense or not! Don't generalize it. Since I wasn't able to break your defense within the specified time, you win my bracelet!" The Heavenly Emperor retorted. 

" Moreover, I was young at that time! I wasn't as strong. If I were as strong as I am now, I wouldn't take even a second to break the barrier!" he continued. 

"Is that so? Why don't you give it a try then? The same bet as last time. You'll have ten minutes. You can use any attack you like. If you break my defense, I'll return your bracelet."

" If you can't break the defense, you'll forget all the losses that you incurred because of my son. How's that?" Zhu Gong suggested, having fun now that he was here.

"Sure! I'll accept your offer and show you my true strength!" The Heavenly Emperor declared. 

Zhu Gong nodded, not taking it seriously. The Black Tortoise were known for their defense. This bet was already a disadvantage for the Heavenly Emperor. Let alone him; he could even defend himself against the attack of the Dragon King.

It wasn't Heavenly Emperor's fault that he wasn't able to break the defense in such a short time. 

As his father was immersed in the upcoming challenge, Zhu Chang continued taking a step back slowly, trying to get out. 

Tuck~

As Zhu Chang was retreating, he hit someone in the back. 

"Going somewhere, Young Prince?" A manly voice came. 

Zhu Chang turned back, frowning. "You're here as well, Uncle Long?"

It was the younger brother of his father. Just as Zhu Chang thought he got rid of his father and could escape, it turned out his father hadn't come alone. His uncle was also here. The retreat was impossible. 

"My missing nephew was discovered after so long. As a concerned uncle, why won't I come to meet you?" Zhu Long asked, laughing. "It's so good to see you again, Chang'er."

"You too, Uncle Long." Zhu Chang replied, sighing. 

Zhu Gong raised both his hands, joining them above his head. As soon as his hand touched, a semi transparent shield appeared before him.

"This is the same shield that I used all those years against you. If you can break it, it'll be your victory. So show me your true strength. Let me see how much you have grown."

"That's exactly what I want to do," the Heavenly Emperor responded, smiling. 

He clenched his fist firmly, which started shining in a golden light. This was the moment the Heavenly Emperor had always been waiting for... An opportunity to win the battle he had lost in the past. It was an opportunity for him to remove the only black stain in his record. 

He hadn't fought many Godly Beasts. He only challenged one, and that was Zhu Gong. Moreover, he did that when he wasn't even the Heavenly Emperor. He was just a prince at that time. Furthermore, Zhu Gong wasn't a Patriarch either at that time. He was also in the same position as Zhu Chang at that time. 

" Are you ready? I'm coming! Don't cry after you lose!"

" Less talking and more showing abilities! Unless talking is your only ability? It won't be surprising either, though." Zhu Gong laughed. 

"You!" The Heavenly Emperor flew towards the shield, leaving a cloud of dust in his wake, closing in on Zhu Gong's Barrier. 

As he reached the barrier, he punched with his full strength, using his strongest brute attack against the same shield which had defeated him in the past. 

Boom~

A booming sound echoed everywhere, following the sound of glass shattering.
