At that moment, Shun Long's expression finally changed as a sudden wave of bloodlust erupted from his body, one that made the furious young master of the Yan family to take a few steps back in shock!

Shun Long however didn't stop, as he circulated his 'Monarch's Hourglass' to the extreme before he activated his second 'Monarch's Domain'.

The flow of time around his body instantly increased by many times, increasing his speed explosively, as Shun Long suddenly took a step forward and appeared right in front of the green-robed Yan Wen before Dai Lim and Dai Hao had even realized what was going on.

''What????''

The 2 brothers didn't even see when Shun Long had made his move, but in less than a single second, he had actually appeared in front of Yan Wen!

Extending his right hand forward with an ice-cold look on his face, Shun Long grabbed Yan Wen from the throat and lifted him up like he was lifting a chicken.

His body that was radiating endless killing intent made the green-robed young master of the Yan family tremble in shock.

He had never expected that someone would dare to land their hands on him inside Yanzhu city after he had given them his name!

''Brat! Let go of young master Yan!''

''Bastard how dare you? Quickly, let young master Yan go, or you will die without a complete corpse.''

Turning his head to the side, Shun Long stared at Dai Lim and Dai Hao who were hurling threats towards him, but not only did he not let Yan Wen go, but he even clenched his hand lightly

''AAAAAAAAAGHHHHH! HELP!''

Yan Wen's screams resounded throughout the shop, causing Dai Lim and Dai Hao to stare at Shun Long with furious gazes but not daring to take a single step towards him.

If something happened to Yan Wen there would be no one who could deal with the Holy sect's mission that targeted their heads.

''No! If something really happens to young master Yan, forget about the Holy sect's mission, before someone from the Holy sect even comes here, the Yan family will definitely take our heads first!''

As they came to this conclusion, the 2 brothers didn't know what to do as they looked at each other fearfully.

They knew that Shun Long was just an early rank 3 Nascent Soul stage cultivator and they could kill him within a few seconds, but Yan Wen was already in his hands.

Even if they moved forward to kill Shun Long right now, he would be able to snap Yan Wen's neck before they managed to touch him.

Unfortunately for the 2 brothers, Shun Long didn't give a shit about them, as he stared at Yan Wen with the same cold look on his face, before he asked him

''Scram? Who the fuck are you to tell me to scram? Didn't I tell you to fuck off this shop or I will bury you along with it? Since you refused to leave... then you can die here!''

Crack! ...

Without another word Shun Long clenched his right hand tightly, snapping Yan Wen's neck without any hesitation.

A deathly silence instantly filled the interior of the shop as everyone inside it, regardless if it was Dai Lim, Dai Hao, or the remaining customers who had tried to escape previously, all looked at Shun Long with looks of disbelief on their faces.

''YOU BASTARD!''

''Are you crazy?''

Dai Hao and Dai Lim were the first ones to react, as they shouted at Shun Long with looks of fury as well as terror in their eyes!

They couldn't believe that he was crazy enough to actually kill Yan Wen when he had already mentioned that he came from the Yan family. And the worst part was, that he did this inside their own shop! No matter what, Dai Hao and Dai Lim would both be hunted down by the Yan family after today for failing to protect Yan Wen inside their shop.

At that moment, Dai Lim and Dai Hao's eyes both turned red as they turned to look at each other and nodded their heads simultaneously.

Dai Lim was the first one to make a move, as he suddenly took out a small dagger from his robes and rushed towards Shun Long, while his dagger aimed for the side of his throat.

As for Dai Hao, a 1.6m(5.2ft) long saber appeared in his hand, before he attacked Shun Long from the other side.

Shun Long's golden eyes instantly lit up, before he activated his original 'Monarch's Domain', immediately slowing down the speed of the 2 brothers by almost half.

However, although Dai Hao and Dai Lim's speed was reduced by almost half, the same couldn't be said about the rest of the customers inside the shop who were now in a frozen-like state.

Naturally, since even the strongest of them was only at the peak of rank 2 in the Nascent Soul, they were unable to resist Shun Long's 'Monarch's Domain' that forcibly halted the flow of time around their bodies.

Inside his domain, Shun Long was truly a king!

He could feel that as his comprehension of his Dao of Time increased, even his control of his 'Monarch's Domain', as well as its radius had started to increase as well. Shun Long believed that after he broke through to the Dao King realm successfully, his Dao of Time would obtain a qualitative change.

Staring at the attacks of the 2 brothers that were now at half of their original speed, Shun Long waved his hand, causing a pitch-black sword to appear in front of him.

Just as Dai Lim's dagger was about to reach him, Shun Long held the black sword and used blink, as he suddenly disappeared from Dai Lim's eyes.

''Brother! Behind you!''

Dai Hao shouted in horror after seeing that Shun Long had suddenly appeared behind his brother, while even Dai Lim's eyes widened after seeing that his dagger had failed to hit Shun Long's throat!

However, before Dai Lim could even respond, Shun Long slashed his black sword horizontally towards Dai Lim's waist. The peak rank 5 Nascent Soul stage expert's body was instantly cleaved in half, before it collapsed on the ground under Dai Hao's horrified eyes!
