Monarch Of Time

Chapter 205 - 205 Ambush?!

The young man was in a daze as Elder Zhong disappeared from the room.

A day soon passed and the black panther had spread his silver wings as he was flying above the clouds, heading towards the Dreamland forest.

The look on Shun Longʼs face however, was completely serious, without a hint of a single smile.

Turning his head to the side, he looked at Liu Mei who still had her white veil on her face, and with a solemn tone he said

ʼʼMeiʼer, things will probably turn difficult for a while.

However, it is still under control.ʼʼ

Less than 5 minutes later, a pair of old men were blocking the way ahead.

Liu Meiʼs eyes constricted when she saw the golden badge on each of these old menʼs c.h.e.s.ts, understanding that they were both SSS-rank mercenaries.

The aura that these 2 old men were emitting, had completely horrified Liu Mei, while the ʼSilver-winged panther kingʼ immediately came to a halt.

Seeing the 2 Dao Kings in front of him, the look on Shun Longʼs face had turned serious, but not a single hint of anxiousness could be seen on his expression.

Of course, these 2 old men were none other than the man with the large earlobes Xue Zhilan, and the long white-haired man Hao Ping.

Xue Zhilan looked at Shun Long and Liu Mei with an evil smile on his face, before his eyes were glued to the peak rank 5 ʼSilver-winged panther kingʼ.

At the same time, the long-haired Hao Ping looked at Shun Long and Liu Mei, and with a regretful tone he shook his head as he said

ʼʼLittle brats, if you had stayed in the Heavenʼs Dome city, under the protection of the ʼAlchemistsʼ Guildʼ we wouldnʼt have touched you, but you just had to come here.

You should know in your next life, that if you arenʼt strong enough to possess something, itʼs better to let it go.ʼʼ

Out of nowhere, a wisp of purple smoke appeared in front of Shun Long, before the alluring figure of a red-haired woman started to condense itself.

Shun Long and Liu Mei saw this woman who was smiling at them. She seemed to be in her early 30s, and her red-eyes seemed as if they were looking straight at Shun Longʼs soul. She had a bewitching smile on her face, while her bright red hair were flowing with the wind.

The color of her hair wasnʼt dark red, like the princessʼ of the dark elf race, but it was a bright crimson red that resembled the color of blood.

After smiling brightly at Shun Long, the woman turned her head to look at the 2 old men opposite to her, who were staring at her with serious looks in their eyes, before she said

ʼʼHahaha! It seems that I have come uninvited, but I wonder if there is a spot in your party for me as well.ʼʼ

The bald Xue Zhilan had an ugly look on his face when he looked at the woman in front of him, as he then said in a threatening tone

ʼʼZhong Biya, what are you doing here? If you dare to mess with my plans, I can guarantee you that your Blood Moon sect wonʼt be able to pay the price!ʼʼ

Xue Zhilan wasnʼt afraid of Zhong Biya or the Blood Moon sect in the slightest. He was afraid however, that she would try to ruin his plans.

After all, if the woman in front of him decided to help Shun Long escape, Xue Zhilan had no confidence in catching the black panther, if it flew back to the Heavenʼs Dome city at full speed.

By then, he would be the one who would be paying the price, for trying to touch an alchemist of the ʼAlchemistsʼ Guildʼ.

After all, although the combat power that the ʼAlchemistsʼ Guildʼ had wasnʼt superior to the ʼMercenariesʼ Associationʼsʼ, it was common knowledge that if someone messed with the high-ranking alchemists of the guild, then they and the power behind them would be banned from purchasing pills from the guild any longer.

If that happened, Xue Zhilan was certain, that the Association would hand him over to the ʼAlchemistsʼ Guildʼ to appease their anger.

The red-haired Elder of the Blood Moon sect, looked at Xue Zhilan with a smile on her face, and shaking her head she said

ʼʼOf course I wouldnʼt want to mess with your ʼMercenariesʼ Associationʼ, Elder Xue! However, I have taken a liking to this young man, and want to take him as a personal pill slave.

Since you are going to kill them anyway, you can just allow me to take the young man with me right? You can do whatever you want to the woman behind him though.ʼʼ

Hao Pingʼs eyes lit up when he heard this, but Xue Zhilan shook his head without a second thought.

His eyes stared at the red-haired Zhong Biya without a hint of kindness as he responded coldly

ʼʼScram! There is no way that I am letting this brat alive!

Otherwise, if you decided to help him return to the city, wouldnʼt I and Hao Ping both be doomed then? Even if we donʼt die, the ʼAlchemistsʼ Guildʼ will certainly skin us alive!

Zhong Biya, donʼt mention this again! Just scram and I will consider it as if you were never here!ʼʼ

Hao Ping seemed to have just realized, that he was on the same boat as Xue Zhilan right now. Indeed, if something happened, he would definitely be forced to lose a skin of his meat from the ʼAlchemistsʼ Guild!

The look in his eyes instantly turned cold as he stared at Zhong Biya without saying a single word.

Zhong Biyaʼs face had turned red from anger but she still took a deep breath to calm herself down, before she looked at Xue Zhilan and said seriously

ʼʼElder Xue, arenʼt you afraid that I will tell everything to the ʼAlchemistsʼ Guildʼ myself? I donʼt care what you want to do with the black panther or the woman behind him, all I want is the alchemist himself. I am willing to swear a Dao oath as well that I wonʼt reveal anything that happened here!ʼʼ

Xue Zhilan laughed when he heard Zhong Biyaʼs threat, and with a mocking look on his face he said

ʼʼHahahaha! Idiot!

Even if you tell everything to the ʼAlchemistsʼ Guildʼ, as long as this brat is killed and there is no proof, who will believe you? Will you allow someone to willingly search through your memories just to incriminate me? Donʼt make me laugh!

As for your Dao oath, I couldnʼt care less about this bullshit!

Who doesnʼt know that you have been stuck at the early rank 2 Dao King realm for the past 6 millenniums? You donʼt have any hope of advancing anyway!

For the last time, SCRAM!ʼʼ

Anger had instantly clouded Zhong Biyaʼs mind the moment she heard these words, while the expression on her face had turned extremely ugly.

Not only had she lowered herself and said that she was willing to swear a Dao oath, but Xue Zhilan actually cursed her in response, and refused to give her the slightest bit of face.

An evil smile immediately filled her face, as she suddenly turned around and looked at Shun Long before she said

ʼʼYou only have 5 seconds!ʼʼ

Then, without waiting for an answer, her voluptuous figure immediately became a cloud of purple smoke, that moved towards the 2 SSS-rank mercenaries in front of her.

Shun Longʼs expression didnʼt change when he saw the scene in front of him, and with the same look on his eyes, he told the black panther to fly towards the east.

He didnʼt feel any sense of gratitude towards Zhong Biya, as he understood, that this woman had heard everything about him from the rank 2 silver grade alchemist Yao Huang, while her goal just now was to take him as a pill slave.

If Xue Zhilan had agreed to her request, she would have probably joined hands with him just now as she fought against him.

Xue Zhilan looked at the purple smoke around him with a furious expression on his face, before he shouted in a voice that reeked with killing intent

ʼʼZhong Biya, you bitch! I will make you pay!ʼʼ

Seeing that the black panther was flying towards the east, the bald man turned his head to look at Hao Ping next to him, and with a determined look he said

ʼʼDonʼt let them escape!ʼʼ
