Monarch Of Time-Novel

Chapter 744 - 744 Forceful Methods

A burst of killing intent erupted from senior Feng's body as he finished speaking, while his eyes stared at Shun Long dangerously like a viper that was about to strike. Thᴇ link to the origin of this information rᴇsts in novelenglish.net . fire(.)nᴇt

It was one thing for Shun Long to be a talented junior that the Northern Sovereign looked at favorably, but if he was really intending to feign ignorance and tried to keep the golden skeleton for himself, there was no way that senior Feng would accept this.

Surprisingly, the Northern Sovereign didn't berate senior Feng for his aggressive approach.

In her heart, the Northern Sovereign had started to feel slightly angry as well.

She had already approached Shun Long sincerely when she made her offer to him, but Shun Long himself didn't seem to be willing to hand over the golden skeleton.

Although the Northern Sovereign looked at Shun Long favorably due to the unprecedented Heavenly Tribulation that he had just caused, the golden skeleton wasn't something that she was willing to give up, no matter what.

If Shun Long really kept on denying that he had it in his possession, the Northern Sovereign would have to take it by force then.

If that happened, there was no way that she was going to let Shun Long live either.

After all, the talent that Shun Long had just showed had made even the Northern Sovereign somewhat wary.

In reality, the only reason why neither the Northern Sovereign or senior Feng had made their moves against him yet, was because the 2 experts wanted to rope Shun Long in and have him join them.

''Kid, don't make things difficult for this old man, or I won't be able to protect you either. The golden skeleton is useless to you and will only bring you more danger, but to experts like senior Northern Sovereign, it's a priceless treasure that they won't give up. Isn't it better to just give it up without conflict?'' The Grand Elder had now started to sweat as he looked at Shun Long.

He was truly worried that Shun Long would get greedy and would keep trying to refuse to hand the golden skeleton over, thus angering the Northern Sovereign and senior Feng. By then, forget about the Grand Elder... even if the sect master of the Holy sect was here, even he wouldn't be able to protect Shun Long from these 2 experts.

The Northern Sovereign nodded her head calmly as she waited for Shun Long to make his choice, but inside the foggy space in the 'Stone of Time', Little Black sneered mockingly as he stared at the group of experts around Shun Long.

In Little Black's eyes, even cultivators who were just a step away from ascending and becoming true immortals couldn't make better use of the skeleton than Shun Long.

After a moment of silence, Shun Long looked at the Grand Elder and shook his head before he said in an 'honest' manner

''Senior, it's not that I am unwilling to help, but how can I hand over something that I don't have?''

Senior Feng's face darkened even further when he heard Shun Long's answer, while a displeased look had also appeared on the Northern Sovereign's face.

It seemed that Shun Long was really bent on denying that he possessed the golden skeleton.

''Brat, it looks like you won't give up until you see your coffin. Do you really think that I won't dare to kill you today?''

Sensing the killing intent that was coming from senior Feng's body, the Grand Elder shivered as he immediately took a step forward and appeared between Shun Long and senior Feng.

Waving his hands, the Grand Elder looked at senior Feng and said hurriedly

''Senior, please wait! This is probably a misunderstanding!''

Just as the Grand Elder was about to try and persuade Shun Long one more time to hand over the golden skeleton, an old man in violet robes who was standing behind the Northern Sovereign, looked at Shun Long and said in a calm voice that attracted everyone's attention

''What's the point of wasting time like this? Whether that kid really has the golden skeleton or not... won't we know after searching his spatial ring?''

Senior Feng nodded his head coldly when he heard the old man's suggestion, while the Northern Sovereign didn't seem to object to this either.

Since Shun Long wasn't willing to cooperate, no one was willing to waste their time like this.

Shun Long's eyes narrowed as he looked at the experts surrounding him, as he then said in an unhappy tone

''Fine! Since the seniors here don't believe this junior, feel free to search my spatial ring. I hope that these seniors won't really covet the treasures of a junior who has just broken through to the Dao King realm.''

As he finished speaking, Shun Long removed the spatial ring from his hand and tossed it to senior Feng who extended his hand and caught it with a smile on his face.

At least Shun Long knew how to be sensible and choose the correct side.

The Grand Elder sighed when he saw this scene but he still exhaled a sigh of relief inwardly.

Although their Holy sect had a certain relationship with the Northern Sovereign, at this point, this didn't matter too much.

Whether they chose to give the golden skeleton to young lady Niu or the Northern Sovereign was of secondary importance.

The most important thing was for Shun Long to cooperate so these experts would at least spare his life.

Seeing that Shun Long had tossed his spatial ring to the red-robed 'senior Feng', a sharp look flashed inside the Northern Sovereign's eyes, but she still chose to remain silent in the end.

Although things would become complicated if young lady Niu was the one who got the golden skeleton, the Northern Sovereign knew that as long as she was willing to go all-out, she would be the final winner today.

Senior Feng closed his eyes before he sent his soul sense inside the black spatial ring in his hands in an expectant manner.

However, in the next moment, young lady Niu who was standing next to senior Feng noticed that an ugly expression appeared on his face soon after, before his aura that was at the peak of rank 3 in the Sovereign realm exploded outwards, startling not just the Grand Elder, but the Northern Sovereign herself, as well as the rest of the surrounding experts inside the core region of the King's Palace.

In the next moment, senior Feng's soul sense covered not just the core region, but the entire King's Palace itself, before his cold eyes stared at Shun Long with a look of unconcealed killing intent, as he then said in a cold voice

''Brat, where is the golden skeleton?''
