Eternal Thief

584 Thief is Destined for Greatness!



‘What, Scepter?!’ Ace’s heart skipped a beat. He was almost on at the peak of Demon Temple.

But even from such height, he could feel that ghastly aura. He had never experienced such a presence before. Even the heavenly punishment paled in comparison a little.

This also explained why the Demon Temple was forbidden, and no one dared to mess with the demon race. There was such an expert hidden within the demon race!

Nevertheless, since the other party still hadn’t locked onto him, this meant he didn’t know who took this Scepter which was probably related to the lightning orb.

Furthermore, if he hadn’t had the Space Step Heavenly Talisman, he might not even be able to fly under that pressure, and the lower the altitude and static he was, the higher his chances of getting locked by this person’s Martial Sense or Soul Sense!

At this moment, Ace was even above the dark clouds, as it was his first time flying so high he could literally touch the stars, but he didn’t have the time to enjoy this breathtaking view, and he used his ninth Space Step Talisman.

The demon temple was a ten thousand feet high tower, and Ace finally saw the peak. He was shocked when he saw a pitch-black sword stable on the pointy edge of the Demon Temple Tower.

Furthermore, this sword gave off an extraordinarily sharp and foreboding feeling even after the distance between him and the peak was hundreds of meters.

‘Why is this sword left at this height alone?’ Ace’s thievish interest was instantly piqued since he could tell that it wasn’t just a random sword.

The suffocating pressure was still around, but it still hadn’t locked on him, and he knew just one more space step, and he would be out of the massive detection formation of the imperial domain.

But that sword drew Ace’s attention, and his thievish nature instantly stirred despite the severity of the situation.

In the end, his sanity still won since he knew that the building had to have a powerful formation, and now that he had provoked that terrifying existence, there wasn’t even a hint of carelessness left.

He almost succeeded in pulling the most dangerous thievery of his existence, so he shouldn’t be greedy. Besides, once he became strong, he could always return and take that sword without caring about anyone.

After taking a last glance, he activated the space step talisman again, and the next moment, he appeared 1000 meters above the peak of Demon Temple.

Strangely, that pressure still existed, but for some reason, Ace didn’t feel the throbbing anymore, as if the danger had ended.

With this altitude, Ace could see the entire Imperial Domain; even far, the sensation was simply too magical.

After throwing another glance at the sword below, he headed toward the north while using the space step talisman. He wanted to leave the Imperial Domain before his symbol summoning time ran out.

At this moment, Ace heard a notification,

=====

[Thief Farewell Note time limit has been ended!]

-Time: 00: 00: 00

[System had automatically chosen a random famous Thief Farewell Note from the past Heaven’s Stealers!]

=====

Ace cocked an eyebrow, “Famous Thief Farewell Note from past Heaven’s Stealers? Tell me, what was that?”

He was quite curious, and at this time, the System replied, which made Ace’s eyes widen before a prideful smile appeared on his pale face, “I couldn’t be more agree with this Note, hahaha!”

His thievish laugh drifted on the boundless sky…

Just before when Ace took the flight.

p AndD nOve1.cO,m Inside the Demon Temple, the massive statue of Baphomet suddenly lost the power which kept it hovering in the air after the Scepter was stolen from its core.

But before the statue could crush upon the black altar on the staircase, a masked person at least 6 meters height appeared beneath it and held the entire statue with one hand, stopping it from crashing into the altar.

The giant person suddenly trembled, not with the weight of the statue but with pure anger and incredulity.

He hollered, “WHO DARE TO STEAL IMPERIAL DEMON SCEPTRE?!”

The next moment, symbols suddenly appeared on the tip of his fingertips right below the massive statue before they began to suspend into the air, creating a complex array in the thin air!

The next moment, the small array was complete without showing any sign of dissipation, and he also vanished from his spot. But the entire statue was now balanced on that small array without showing any sign of falling.

Outside, the giant person appeared, hovering in the air, and the next moment, an invisible sense started to spread all over the inner palace.

Right at this moment, a masked demon wearing emperor’s robes appeared, he was the Demon Emperor, and the Demon Empress followed suit a step later.

Both of them were shocked to see this giant person, and they bowed their heads without any discomfort the next instant.

“Ancestor!” They respectfully greeted in unison.

The Demon Ancestor clearly wasn’t in the mood for chitchat and coldly uttered, “What were you doing?! Did all the formations inside the domain malfunction?! Someone just stole the Imperial Demon Scepter with some space treasure!”

“What?! How is that possible!” The Demon Emperor’s voice was filled with disbelief and atrocity.

“Do you think I need to joke with you?! I told you fools to investigate the strange space undulation months ago, useless all of you utterly useless!” Demon Ancestor hollered as he was getting angrier and angrier since his soul sense wasn’t picking up anything, “Now quickly activate the formation and lock down the entire imperial domain. The Imperial Demon Scepter can’t be stowed in the storage ring. I’ll find this degenerate soon!”

Demon Emperor and Empress didn’t dare to refute or show any discomfort when they got reprimanded by the Demon Ancestor.

But it wasn’t their fault either since if this was so important, the Demon Ancestor should’ve acted himself that day, but he handed this task to Leona, which showed just how ‘important’ this task was.

Nevertheless, they were horrid by this revelation of the Imperial Demon Scepter being stolen right under the nose of Demon Ancestor and the strongest formation on the entire continent.

The Imperial Demon Scepter was the poof of the Black Lightning Tribe’s sovereignty on the Demon Race, and without it, there would be no ruler, at least not a powerful one.

Because the Imperial Demon Scepter held the secret cultivation art that only a generation ruler could learn, and that secret art was so magical that it couldn’t be recorded on anything or taught verbally.

The Imperial Demon Scepter also had another most important function and held the Imperial Family’s core secret.

If it was lost, then the demon race won’t have the capital to challenge the Devils!

That was, the Imperial Demon Scepter was protected within the safety of Demon Temple and always under the watchful eye of Demon Ancestor!

But now, somehow, it got stolen, and the watchman blamed the workers for the blunder he caused himself.

Yet, they didn’t even have the guts to refute it.

Demon Emperor quickly took out a crystal chessboard, and with a thought, the entire chessboard suddenly turned black.

“Every formation has been activated, and I’m going to issue a Black Imperial Order. No one would be able to leave unless we found that degenerate who scheme against our imperial family!” The Demon Emperor menacingly uttered as he activated different traps with the chessboard.

“H-husband!” At this moment, the Demon Empress’s horrified shrill ring, like she saw a ghost, startled both the Demon Ancestor and Demon Emperor.

“What?!” Demon Emperor quickly asked with a hint of concern.

“L-look… the t-temple… something is emerging on the Demon Temple!” She exclaimed in a dreadful voice.

Both Demon Emperor and Demon Ancestor instinctively twisted their necks to see the Demon Temple.

Although it was night, they were all exitances with extremely high cultivation bases, and they could see as clear as day, especially the Demon Ancestor.

Right under the eye of those three top experts of the demon race, a white color suddenly materialized on the demon temple’s black walls. It was simply too eye-catchy.

Soon that white color turned into a massive owl symbol, and there were eye-catching words on its thousands of feet long wings.

On the upper wing was a name,

“Sky Stealer!”

On the lower wing was a string of imposing factful words filled with arrogance and mirth, which sent shivers to those three terrifying existences.

“Thief is Destined for Greatness!”

Soon those words will be going to reverberate in the entire world like a thunderstorm and appear in everyone’s nightmares!
