Seeing that he had attracted everyone's attention, the middle-aged man from the 'Mercenaries' Association' then continued

''Think about it, the only reason that Duan Zhu could recruit people so openly, was because he was using the dark elf palace as his base. With one of the peak powers of the Heaven's Dome city under his command, it was only natural for people to follow him.

Now that he has left to enter the 'Dragon Lord's villa' however... we can take this chance to destroy the traitors of the dark elf race!

Not only will that deter people and stop them from entering the Demon Emperor palace, but we can also take care of the traitors at the same time!''

Silence permeated the room as soon as the middle-aged man's words ended.

A few moments later, one of the 2 old men from the 'Golden Exchange firm' stood up, and with his deep black eyes, he looked at the middle-aged man from the 'Mercenaries' Association', before he shook his head and said

''Teng Hanying, your suggestion will not work.''

Sigh

''I suppose that in the end, you are simply too young compared to the rest of us here.''

After taking a deep breath, the old man from the 'Golden Exchange firm' straightened his hunched back, and with a deep look in his eyes that had failed to conceal his fear, he continued

''Do you think that Duan Zhu would have entered the 'Dragon Lord's villa', without considering that we may take revenge while he is gone?

He is not afraid of us attacking the dark elves... instead, he actually hopes that we will completely destroy them!

This will provide him with the perfect excuse to attack each of us directly.''

Seeing that the middle-aged Teng Hanying was still confused, the old man from the 'Golden Exchange firm' shook his head once again as he continued

''Since everyone in the continent already knows that the dark elf race has surrendered to the Demon Emperor palace, if we destroy them, we will provide the Demon Emperor palace with the perfect setting to take revenge.

Not only will they have an excuse to destroy each of us here, but they will also be avenging their subordinates at the same time, raising their prestige in the continent even further, and attracting even more people to join them.

If the Demon Emperor palace sends all of their hall masters to the Night star continent, then forget about our Heaven's Dome city, our entire Night star continent may be unable to gather enough peak Dao Kings to fight them head-on.''

Teng Hanying's eyes bulged out when he heard the old man's words.

Although he knew that the Demon Emperor palace was a terrifying behemoth that had even powerful Dao Emperor realm experts residing inside it, hearing that just its hall masters by themselves, were enough to fight against all of the peak experts in the continent, made him swallow down his next words while a look of horror had filled his eyes.

He had originally thought, that as long as no Emperor realm expert arrived, then if enough peak Dao Kings gathered in the Heaven's Dome city, they could fight against the peak Dao Kings from the Demon Emperor palace with ease.

At most, they would have to send some supremely powerful experts like Sheng Jun to tie down the strongest of the enemy Dao Kings.

But the old man's words had completely shattered his hopes.

With a dejected look on his face, Teng Hanying sat down on his seat before he lowered his head.

Silence filled the room once again, before the elderly woman, Shao Wenqian cleared her throat, attracting everyone's attention.

After taking a deep breath, she looked at the people around her before she said in a solemn tone

''Although Hanying's idea wasn't the best, in reality, it was still a step in the right direction.

After all, if we don't find a way to stop this situation from worsening any further, all of you know what will happen.

I would rather die fighting than allowing that bunch of vampires to pollute our Night star continent in the first place!

After all, the more people they take, the more monsters they create!''

Sheng Jun sighed when he heard Shao Wenqian's words, but in the end, he didn't say anything in the end.

After all, he knew that Shao Wenqian's words weren't wrong.

At the same time that this discussion was taking place inside the Shengtian dynasty's palace, Shun Long kept absorbing the energy from the 'internal reconstruction pill' in his body.

Even though he had already reached the early fourth stage of the 'Monarch's Eternal body', the limitless energy from the top-grade rank 4 pill was like a giant river.

Shun Long could feel his muscles and bones growing tougher and stronger, as the 'Monarch's Eternal body' kept absorbing the pill's energy.

2 more months passed like this inside the foggy space in the 'Stone of Time', when Shun Long felt himself reaching the peak of the early fourth stage in body refinement.

He could feel that he was just a step away from entering the middle of the fourth stage of the 'Monarch's Eternal body', but the energy from the 'internal reconstruction pill' had finally been depleted.

Shun Long wasn't dissatisfied that he hadn't entered the middle of the fourth stage in body refinement this time.

Instead, he could feel that his body was filled with endless amounts of energy, while his comprehension of the Dao of Space was simply incomparable to before.

After putting on his blue-colored robes, Shun Long stood up, and without any hesitation, he clenched his right fist before he sent a powerful punch forward.

Space around Shun Long's body trembled, while a large space tear more than 2m(6.6ft) long had appeared in front of him.

Little Black's azure eyes lit up when he saw Shun Long's punch, but suddenly, his expression changed.

Shun Long's expression had also turned serious at the same time as Little Black's, and without a moment's hesitation, he immediately closed his eyes as he appeared back inside the room of the inn.
