Monarch of Time

After seeing Duan Zhu's overbearing attitude, the elderly woman, Shao Wenqian gritted her teeth before she turned to look at Sheng Jun, as she waited for his answer.

As long as he agreed, she would be the first to fight against the hall master of the Demon Emperor palace.

Sheng Jun seemed to have fallen silent for a moment as he looked at the hall master of the Demon Emperor palace, but in the end, he shook his head in response.

It was indeed too risky to fight against Duan Zhu right now.

If they were 8 against 1, then Sheng Jun wouldn't have hesitated in the slightest, but the betrayal of the 2 women from the dark elf race had completely tipped the scales of the battle.

After all, as a hall master of the Demon Emperor palace, Duan Zhu had access to much stronger cultivation techniques and martial skills than the peak powers of the Heaven's Dome city.

There were rumors that the most famous technique of the Demon Emperor palace, the Blood palm, was even a Saint high-grade martial skill.

Even though Sheng Jun was one of the 3 strongest Dao Kings in the entire Night star continent, even he couldn't say with certainty that he could hold down Duan Zhu by himself.

Shao Wenqian and the rest shook their heads when they saw Shen Jun's reaction, but they all understood what this meant.

In a fight where the winner and the loser weren't clearly certain, Sheng Jun wouldn't risk fighting with Duan Zhu to death.

Besides, even if they somehow managed to kill Duan Zhu, or just repel him from the 'Heaven's Dome city', wouldn't the Demon Emperor palace send other peak rank 9 Dao Kings to the Night star continent?

Seemingly as if he had guessed Sheng Jun's thoughts, Duan Zhu smiled as he nodded his head at him.

Then, after taking a deep breath, under Sheng Jun's and the other peak Dao Kings astounded eyes, Duan Zhu suddenly opened his mouth, as his loud, deep voice sounded in every corner of the Heaven's Dome city

''People of the Heaven's Dome city!

My name is Duan Zhu and I am a hall master of an Emperor realm force, the Demon Emperor palace!

My Demon Emperor palace is a power much stronger than any other in your Night star continent, and I have come here today, to offer you all a chance.

For the next 5 days, I will be staying in the dark elf race's palace. Those of you who are below 800 years old and have reached the late stages of the Spirit realm, can come to the dark elf race and apply to become outer disciples of my Demon Emperor palace.

This is your chance to come to the central region, the strongest place in the world!

This is the place where all the peak experts of the world gather after all.

If you don't want to stay as pathetic worms of the Night star continent for the rest of your lives, this is your chance.''

Duan Zhu's words didn't just shock the entire Heaven's Dome city. Even the 10 peak rank 9 Dao Kings around him were stunned when they heard this.

Was he trying to steal away the younger generation of the Night star continent?

Duan Zhu however, didn't seem to care at all about the furious expressions of the people around him, and placing his hands around Yi Huian's and Yi Xiaosi's waists, he laughed loudly before he headed towards the eastern part of the Heaven's Dome city, where the palace of the dark elf race was situated.

At the same time, inside the House of Rankings, complete silence had filled the place, after everyone had heard Duan Zhu's voice that had resounded throughout the entire city.

Even after the horrifying aura that was suppressing them earlier had disappeared, no one seemed to be moving, looking like they had been rooted in place.

Even Shun Long was stunned for a moment after he had heard Duan Zhu's voice. However, it only took a moment for him to regain his clarity, as his eyes were once again focused on Liu Mei and the black panther.

With a smile on his face, Shun Long was the first person to break the silence in the Survival Gate's hall, as he started walking towards Liu Mei.

Seeing someone else move, the people inside the hall instantly returned to their senses, as shocked discussions of what had just happened immediately filled the room.

It wasn't just the crowd inside the House of Rankings, but everyone in the entire Heaven's Dome city, were now discussing about that terrifying aura that had covered them a few seconds ago, as well as the voice of the hall master of the Demon Emperor palace.

After all, this was something that had never happened before, and could change people's lives.

Young people from all over the Heaven's Dome city who had reached the late stages of the Spirit realm, could be seen running towards the eastern part of the city.

Ignoring the heated discussions of the crowd around them, Shun Long and Liu Mei sat on the 'Silver-winged panther king's' back, as they left the House of Rankings. Since he wasn't planning on participating in another Survival challenge right away, Shun Long had no reason to keep staying in the House of Rankings any longer.

As they were heading back to the inn, Liu Mei's eyes stared at Shun Long's back, as her sweet voice that was filled with curiosity sounded in his ears

''Long-ge, will there be many people who will try to enter that Demon Emperor palace? After all, the voice of that hall master even said, that they are more powerful that any other power in the Night star continent.''

Nodding his head, Shun Long turned his head to the side to look at Liu Mei, and with a serious voice he said

''You are right, Mei'er. There will certainly be a lot of people who will try to enter that Demon Emperor palace. However, it looks like there is even more to this situation than what meets the eye!''
