Chapter 1335 - 1335: No Time
"It's not a story! It's the truth! Just look at my cultivation. Do you think I can be a criminal that would need Heavenly Warriors to take action? If you just investigated the truth a little, you would know it!" Long Chen insisted.
"Go away, kid. We don't have time to waste on random stories of kids," the Heavenly Warrior responded.
The formation under his feet started shining brightly, and the Heavenly Warrior disappeared.
The room returned to its old silence.
"See? I told you that no one was going to believe you," Zia Uzhi said, shaking his head. "Now that you're here, it doesn't matter if you were guilty or innocent. You're just another prisoner here."
That's... Stupid. No one seems to be doing their duty. I thought Heavenly Warriors would care more about justice and at least try to find the truth," Long Chen said, frowning.
"You overestimate the Heavenly Warriors. They aren't a saint either. In fact, quite a lot of them have a shady past of their own." Zia Uzhi started walking back. And similarly, Long Chen also followed him.
Since all the legal ways of exit were closed, he could only take the matter into his own hands.

Zhu Chang appeared on top of a golden mountain which was shining as if it was made of pure gold. The mountain was so tall that it seemed to be touching the sky, but it was completely empty. No human or beast lived on the mountain as it neither had any plantation nor any water.

"That's right. This is the So-called heaven. Nothing special really," Zhu Chang replied.
"Can anyone tell me what's going on now? How did he end up in Heaven from the Immortal World?" Snake Monarch asked.
"Well, long story short, I took over your body and told him the location of the World Travelling stone, which was in the Beast World. There, we faced some enemies. One of them used an Artifact which only a Heavenly Warrior should have possessed," the Blood Dragon Emperor said.
"And after touching that Artifact, Long Chen was sent to the Heavenly Prison," he added. "And now we need to get him out."
"Heavenly Prison? That idiot? Did he really have to touch that? Man, if only he were as smart as me. One should never touch things like that without being sure," The Snake Monarch said, sighing.
"Is that prison safe?" He asked.
"It should be safe. As long as he doesn't go out of his way to chase danger," the Blood Dragon Emperor replied.
Snake Monarch's face twitched. "But that's his hobby. He always finds trouble. We need to find him."
"So, where is this Heavenly Prison?" he asked.
"I'm not sure," Zhu Chang muttered. "We need to find it first."
"You don't know?"
"How should I know? It's my first time here. I do have some information about the Heavenly Realm, but not in such depth. Also, it would depend on luck too."
"Depends on luck? What do you mean?"
"I mean, it'll depend on luck how fast we can save him. Because there are two Heavenly Prisons in the Heavenly Realm. We not only have to find the Heavenly Prison, but we also have to find the right one. And after that, we need to get him out," Zhu Chang explained.
"So if we're lucky, we might get the right prison on our first try. If we're not lucky, we might have to try again," Blood Dragon Emperor let out.
"Yeah. But let's hope we are correct on the first try. Because the Heavenly Warriors will be alert after that. And I don't want to stay here for longer than I have to," Zhu Chang explained.
"First, we need to find the closest City and an informant," he added. "Co-"
"Hmm? That's right. You're bigger now. I can't have you wrap around my arms so I could fly faster. I'll have to slow myself to your speed. It sucks."
"Don't worry. Now that I have my real body, I'm much faster. Moreover, we dragons are known for our speed," the Blood Dragon Emperor explained.
"We'll see," Zhu Chang muttered. He glanced at the Snake Monarch. "You, little guy. Become smaller so I can carry you.'
Snake Monarch became smaller and wrapped around the hand of Zhu Chang.
Zhu Chang and the Blood Dragon Emperor started flying in the random direction they had selected.
....
"That was a waste. So, what next? Are you still hoping to leave, or are you prepared to make a new home in this place?" Zia Uzhi asked b
"Home in this place? I'm sorry, but I can't. This place can never be my home. And spending my entire life here? That's impossible. I'll definitely find a way out. I just need one opportunity," Long Chen answered.

Long Chen wondered what place he was talking about, but he still followed him.
Zia Uzhi escorted them to what appeared like a garden restaurant. It was surrounded by a wooden fence from all four sides, which was half the height of Long Chen. Through the fence, he was able to see inside.
The entire place was covered in the grass, even on the inside. There were small tables placed all around the garden with chairs.? Half the tables were also filled.
Women in skirts that barely covered their thighs were serving alcohol to the customers.
"Is this a bar?" Long Chen asked Zia Uzhi.
"It's a restaurant. But most people come here to drink only. They serve great wine. I'm sure you'll love it!" Zia Uzhi replied. "It might help you forget your worries as well."
"The women who are serving... Are they prisoners too?" Long Chen asked.
"That's right. Everyone inside the prison is a prisoner. There's no staff."
"So Prisoners are allowed to work? What about the money? I'm sure the ladies aren't working for free? Do they get money?" Long Chen asked.
"Not money. They get credits," Zia Uzhi replied.
"Credit? What's that?"
"Every month, a prisoner gets some credits. These credits can be used for many things, but only if you collect a certain number. As for the uses, I'll tell you later. Anyway, those credits are used as a currency here."
"So the customers give their credit to the ladies in exchange for the wine?" Long Chen asked, amused.
This place was pretty interesting.
