Monarch of Time

Looking at Cui Guoliang's and Wan Zedong's body that disappeared into motes of light, Liu Mei turned her eyes to look at Shun Long before she asked in a gentle voice

''Long-ge, what should we do now?''

Liu Mei knew that Shun Long had been keeping the matter of Cui Guoliang at the back of his mind during the last 3 years.

After all, no matter what, as a person who had given aid to Shun Long 3 years ago, unless Cui Guoliang was intentionally trying to bring trouble to him by having him explore this region of the 'Dragon Lord's villa', Shun Long wouldn't simply let the Dao King and his wife die.

Shun Long looked at Liu Mei with a smile on his face, while a sense of relief filled his heart after finally helping Cui Guoliang escape from this place.

After patting the black panther's head, he then said in a voice that was filled with gratitude

''Little Silver, you did a good job! You can rest now.''

Waving his right hand, he then had Little Silver return inside the foggy space in the 'Stone of Time'.

Although it seemed that the black panther hadn't faced any major problems so far in their journey in the 'Dragon Lord's villa', Shun Long knew that this wasn't the case.

Little Silver had initially suffered some minor injuries, from the tens of peak rank 5 magic beast that lived in the mountains right before the desert that attacked Shun Long's group. 

Additionally, although the heat of the desert was completely inconsequential to a powerful early rank 6 magic beast like the 'Silver-winged panther king', the terrifying sandstorms at the end of the desert weren't that easy to pass through.

Although Little Silver didn't suffer any injuries from them, it wasn't an easy journey either. 

Even Dao Kings would face a certain degree of trouble and would have to expend plenty of their qi to successfully pass through the desert. 

In the end, after passing through the sandstorms, the black panther still hadn't gotten any time to rest.

After all, it still had to destroy the whirlpools that entrapped Cui Guoliang and his wife, while each whirlpool needed at least 2 or 3 full-powered shockwaves in order to completely disperse.

Although Little Silver didn't whimper to complain that it had been tired and had expended too much of its strength, Shun Long could feel that after the last day's journey, it really needed the rest.

The moment that Little Silver's body disappeared from Shun Long's eyes, the body of a 10m(33ft) tall dragon, with blue eyes and a pair of majestic black wings appeared in front of him and Liu Mei.

Feeling Little Black's excited emotions after leaving the 'Stone of Time' for a while, Shun Long patted the black dragon's head, before he covered himself with the black robes that he wore earlier, and looking at Liu Mei with a smile on his face, he said

''Mei'er, let's go to the core region of the villa!''

Since Cui Guoliang's matter had already been dealt with, Shun Long wasn't willing to waste any more time.

He also didn't know if Duan Zhu would manage to obtain the dragonstone in the meanwhile, which made him even more urgent to explore the depths of the villa itself.

Looking at Shun Long, Liu Mei nodded her head, as she simply replied 

''Mm!''

After covering herself completely with the black robes, she felt Shun Long's arm wrapping itself around her waist, before she quickly appeared on the black dragon's back.

Although Liu Mei had seen Little Black appear in front of her for more than once, she was still filled with shock every time that her eyes landed on the majestic black dragon.

With Liu Mei sitting behind him, Shun Long turned his eyes to look at Little Black and said with a smile

''Little Black, let's go. I am also curious to find out what really lies inside the depths of this 'villa'.''

As soon as he heard Shun Long's words, the black dragon flapped his wings, as he flew right above the sea and headed towards the core region of the 'Dragon Lord's villa'.

Although Little Black wasn't flying at full speed, his speed was many times faster than Little Silver's.

In just a few hours, Shun Long could already see the gigantic pillar of light in the distance ahead, slowly becoming bigger and bigger in his eyes.

At the same time, the sea that was supposed to be lethal for early and middle stage Dao Kings, didn't seem to pose the slightest danger to Shun Long and Liu Mei!

Little Black's aura had completely terrified every early and middle rank 6 magic beast that lied at the depths of the sea as they saw the black dragon that flew above their heads.

As for any peak rank 6 magic beasts, Shun Long was unaware if there were any of them hidden inside the sea and lying in wait.

Almost as if sensing Shun Long's emotions, Little Black's voice suddenly sounded in his head as Little Black said confidently

''Master, there is nothing to worry about! Even if we meet with peak rank 6 magic beasts, I can still rip them to pieces!

Unless we meet with any abnormal magic beasts that have extremely powerful defensive or offensive abilities, or those with rare bloodlines, no other beast should be able to pose any danger to us!''

Shun Long knew that what Little Black had said was the truth, as he took a deep breath and said with a serious look in his eyes

''In any case, it's not like we can ignore the Dragonstone and let it be taken by someone else.''

Little Black nodded his head with a serious look in his eyes.

Indeed, even if he had to fight against the hall master of the 'Demon Emperor palace', he still couldn't allow the dragonstone to be taken away!

Half a day later, the endless sea seemed to have finally come to an end, and right in front of Shun Long's and Liu Mei's eyes, an enormous, luxurious building appeared at the seashore, right where the endless sea ended.

Shun Long could easily make out, that the gigantic beam of light that was visible throughout the entire continent was actually coming from the depths of this building in front of him.

This was the core region of the 'Dragon Lord's villa'!

At the same time that Little Black was about to enter through the half-opened doors of the building in front of him however, Shun Long noticed a group of powerful Dao Kings slowly coming out from the building's entrance.

Raising their heads, the 5 Dao Kings' gazes all fell on the gigantic black dragon who was flying towards them at the same time!
