Chapter 997 Life is Coming to an End! (2)
\'Villainous Heaven? This kind of hate, just how could it be? And this darkness, it even made my avatar feel fear. It\'s probably on the same level as the lawless darkness…\' Ace was shocked as he didn\'t understand who this person was and how he could be so strong.
But one thing was quite clear: whoever it was, Ace was no match for it, and this situation seemed quite grave as he could feel as the icy aura filled with air the natural Qi become thinner. For cultivators, this kind of feeling was extremely suffocating, just like a mortal without air to breathe.
He wasn\'t the only one, as Aliya\'s veiled figure appeared right beside him, and her expression was paled.
"What is going on?" She hurriedly asked Ace since he was the most knowledgeable one and also someone with many secrets.
He was overseeing the syndicate in all these, and under his leadership, it had expanded all over the United mainland. Even Freya might not be able to do it in such a short amount of time.
Furthermore, Aliya also received an extremely powerful cultivation technique from him. Because of it, she managed to cover the barrier of the Qi soul manifestation realm and stepped into the law awareness realm.
Her previous indignation and hostility towards Ace have completely gone, and she is as respectful to him as Freya. But she never showed it, yet didn\'t try to go against him or make him angry either.
Moreover, he had also successfully managed to infiltrate the Thieving World Society by using Thomas and even made him one of the organization\'s vice leaders.
Even though she can\'t get any dirt on the Thieving World Society or their whereabouts, yet, Ace has done it. Although he never told her his purpose for doing this, she didn\'t ask since everything was under his control.
But right now, that voice made her extremely uneasy, and now that she saw the spreading darkness, she felt chills in her spine as if death was coming, and she couldn\'t escape from it.
\'If my main body were here, the system might be able to analyze this phenomenon or at least give some clues. But I can\'t use the system with my avatar. Just who could it be? In the end, he said he wouldn\'t be stopped this time. Could it be?\' Ace\'s mind raced as he couldn\'t help but think about the black sword\'s warning, and his heart palpitated.
Because if this were really the sealed existence then it would explain its rage and ridiculous prowess. He had thought that it was just a ruse before since nothing showed after he broke the world seal, yet after nearly eighteen years, this sudden emergence of this entity didn\'t seem like a coincidence.
His purpose in leaving behind the avatar was to tie some loose ends and also keep a retreat route open for himself if he fell into a dangerous situation in the Sky Heart Plains.
But now, it seemed he needed to take drastic measures as quickly as possible.
"I don\'t know what it is, but it\'s bad news for sure. This power is nothing like anything I had ever seen, and I don\'t think anyone would be able to stop it. Take whatever you need. We are leaving to fetch Thomas. If push comes to shove, I\'ll just take you somewhere far away from here. In the meantime, you\'ll be safe in my living space treasure." Ace gravely commanded.
He had left his avatar with Devil Ancestor\'s living space ring just in case of emergency and convenience. So, he could bring back Aliya and Thomas with him once he\'s about to leave the mortal sky heaven.
After all, they were both capable and had ties with him, so he didn\'t plan on leaving them behind unless they didn\'t want to. But now it seemed he needed to hurry his plan.
Aliya\'s expression changed, "Are you taking us where the mistress is?"
"If that\'s the only solution." Ace nodded.
Aliya didn\'t tarry anymore and quickly left to pack up. She could also feel the Qi were getting thinner and this was not normal at all.
At this moment, Ace furrowed his browns slightly and flipped his hand. A blinking cube appeared, and he activated it without hesitation, knowing who it was.
"Brother Ace, something is happened in the Thieving World Society…" Thomas didn\'t waste time and quickly told him what happened with Damian.
Ace\'s purpose of sending Thomas to join the Thieving World Society was out of curiosity about the person behind it. He wanted to know just how it was who brought down Dream Shatter so miserably and even freed the lower lands of the human region from their cage.
He soon discovered that it was the famous thief of the human region, Nightmarish Thief, who gathered together the remnants of the Sky Stealer Society and formed the Thieving World Society.
Although he wasn\'t on his level, Damien was not any weaker than the house members, which made him quite interested in him. But he didn\'t approach them despite their willingness to made him their leader, he simply didn\'t need them and still didn\'t know if they were completely clean.
So, he lets Thomas climb the ranks and find their secrets. But Damien was far more careful, and no one knew his true identity or his real face except for a woman who belonged to the vice leaders\' group. According to Thomas, she was Damien\'s lover or at least quite close to him, and he trusted her unconditionally.
Yet now, he heard a mysterious expert, probably his master, take Damien away before he could even put up any resistance, and he also left those grim words behind.
Now, the Thieving World Society was in a mess because of the sudden departure of their leader, and the other vice leaders were trying to calm the situation. However, the spreading darkness can\'t be hidden, and with the Qi begging to thin out, anyone would panic and take that voice seriously.
"What should I do?" Thomas asked gravely as he would follow Ace\'s command without hesitation.
Ace thought for a moment before looking at the sky as it was now completely dark, and any sign of light was engulfed in darkness.
"Come back. There\'s no need to stay there anymore. This Nightmarish Thief is very strange, and this master you describe is even stranger. From his words, he knew what was going to happen, yet he took him away without his consent or caring about others.
"If anything, try bringing these vice leaders, especially this lover. They might have some use. Tell them about me, but if they want to bring more people, abandon them." Ace coldly commanded as he thought about something.
"Alright, I\'ll report to you as soon as I leave," Thomas replied.
"Hurry over, I don\'t think we had much time!" Ace commanded before he cut the call.
Ace\'s expression went cold, \'Nightmarish Thief and this beggar-like expert… could it be him?\'
