It didn't take long for Liu Mei to realize this issue either, as she turned her head to look at Shun Long.

Shun Long had a serious look in his eyes as he stared at the gigantic pills of light in the distance, before Little Black's voice suddenly sounded in his mind

''Master! Someone is trying to take the dragonstone from that place!''

Shun Long's eyes narrowed when he heard Little Black's words that didn't have a single hint of uncertainty inside them, before he started to think of the possible scenarios to resolve this situation.

He knew that Little Black had a mental connection with the dragonstone inside the 'Dragon Lord's' villa' after sensing its aura once, so there was no way that he would be mistaken about this. If there was something that had caused the dragonstone inside the villa to react, Little Black would definitely end up sensing it and be aware that someone was trying to take the dragonstone!

At the same time, during the past 2 years, Shun Long had heard rumors in the 'City of Sin', that the hall master of the 'Demon Emperor palace', Duan Zhu, had headed deep inside the 'Dragon Lord's villa' by himself around the same time that he and Liu Mei had left the Heaven's Dome city!

As a peak rank 9 Dao King who was probably as strong, if not stronger than the 5 most powerful Dao Kings of the 'Night star continent', Duan Zhu had a high chance of reaching the depths of the villa, if one factored in that he was also a hall master of the 'Demon Emperor palace' and most likely had no lack of treasures with him!

This made Shun Long feel that this powerful rank 9 Dao King realm expert, was the most likely suspect to have caused this pillar of light to erupt from the 'Dragon Lord's villa'!

Of course, despite Duan Zhu's identity as a high-ranking hall master of the 'Demon Emperor palace', Shun Long couldn't allow the dragonstone to fall in his hands.

He already knew that this stone was extremely important to Little Black.

Additionally, during the past 2 years, Little Black had also reached the middle of rank 6, while Little Silver was just a step away from advancing to that level as well.

In a direct fight, Little Black may not necessarily lose to Duan Zhu.

Even if Little Black was actually weaker than the peak rank 9 Dao King in the end, Shun Long was also confident that Duan Zhu wouldn't be able to keep him tied down if he wanted to leave.

Although Shun Long wasn't willing to let the black dragon's existence become known, he couldn't afford to lose something like the dragonstone either.

After a serious moment of deliberation, he turned his head to look at Liu Mei, and after taking a deep breath he then said in a serious tone

''Mei'er, let's go to the 'Dragon Lord's villa'!''

Shun Long didn't ask Liu Mei whether she wanted to go with him or not. In the last 2 years, he had already understood the way that he and Liu Mei both treated each other.

Since Shun Long knew that venturing into the 'Dragon Lord's villa' was dangerous and it could potentially lead him into risking his life, Liu Mei would most likely choose to go with him instead of waiting outside.

...Besides, Shun Long had more than enough 'Dragon Lord's medallions' for him and Liu Mei to both enter inside.

Even without the 'Dragon Lord's medallion' that he had gotten from Cui Guoliang, Shun Long still had the medallions from the 2 Dao Kings of the 'Mercenaries' Association' who had ambushed him and Liu Mei in order to rob Little Silver away.

At the same time, Shun Long also remembered the red-haired female Elder of the Blood Moon sect who wanted to make Shun Long into a pill slave.

''Zhong Biya would definitely have a 'Dragon Lord's medallion' with her as well!''

Of course, Shun Long didn't have any tender feelings for the red-haired Elder who had 'saved' him by messing with Xue Zhilan's plans back then.

Instead, he simply wondered if she was still alive and hidden somewhere after her ambush outside of the Heaven's Dome city.

If it wasn't because the bald old man, Xue Zhilan had simply refused to let Zhong Biya take Shun Long as a pill slave, incurring her wrath in the process, and making her do her use all of her strength to spoil the old man's plans, Shun Long would have to face 3 Dao Kings during that time.

With Little Black's strength back then, Shun Long wasn't certain that they would be able to kill every single one of them!

Liu Mei nodded her head once she saw Shun Long's serious look, before she waved her hand, making the army of skeletons and undead knights around her and Shun Long disappear.

At the same time, Shun Long first covered himself with a black robe that completely concealed his face and body, before he gave an identical robe to Liu Mei.

Then, without any hesitation, he first summoned Little Silver from the foggy space in the 'Stone of Time', before both he and Liu Mei sat on its back.

The black panther that hadn't left the 'Stone of Time' for the past few months, let out a deafening roar, almost as it wanted to intimidate the magic beasts around it with its presence, before it spread its bright silver wings and shot towards the south of the 'Ten thousand beasts' mountain range', heading towards the entrance.

Shun Long twitched his lips when he heard Little Silver's excited roar that reverberated in the mountains around them, but since they were already leaving the 'Ten thousand beasts' mountain range', he wasn't afraid of a late-stage Dao King finding their location and catching up to them.

Although Little Silver had yet to breakthrough to the middle of rank 6 like Little Black, its strength had already advanced by a lot during the past 2 years after consuming countless stalks of 'Dragonblood grass'.

Although it couldn't beat a middle-stage Dao King, let alone a late-stage one, its speed had definitely reached the threshold of the average late-stage Dao King.

The black panther flew towards the entrance of the 'Ten thousand beasts' mountain range' like a bolt of silver lightning, completely ignoring the terrified magic beasts around it in the process.

In just a few minutes, Shun Long and Liu Mei had already left the 'Ten thousand beasts' mountain range, as they flew towards the 'Dragon Lord's villa'.

At the same time, in the Heaven's Dome city, every single Dao King from the peak powers of the city had shot to their feet as they noticed the gigantic beam of light piercing through the clouds, before they hurriedly flew towards the 'Dragon Lord's villa' as well!
