Chapter 61 - 61: What 's In The Egg

"Who is it?" Tensha asked as he heard knocking on the door.

"It is me, father! I came to inform you that Master Long Chen is back. He is sitting in the main hall waiting for you." Terra replied from outside.

"What???" Tensha and Xu both stood up, completely shocked as soon as they heard it.

"How can he be back so soon? Did he give up on studying our ancestral orb? Or did he get tempted by the orb of the banshee tribe?" Tensha muttered as he remembered what he told Long Chen before he was asked to exit.

"Whatever the reason is, it is good that he did not stay there for long. Now we have our opportunity," Xu replied when he heard Tensha.

"Oh, I have heard about your great reputation before! The deputy leader of the Elphia tribe and the second strongest person in the whole tribe. It is nice to finally meet you." Long Chen said, smiling.

"Anyways you have horses here? How are they useful in this deserted land? Can they run in the sand? Also,
