Chapter 1117 Legend of the Diabolical Crow!

At this moment, a huge carriage drawn by two rhinos-like beasts with spiky scales appeared in everyone’s view. Their every step sent faint tremors in the ground, evident of their mountainous weight.

Ace looked at the large house-sized carriage with great interest. He saw that whenever the carriage passed in front of a courtyard, the guards, including the owners, quickly bowed deeply towards it with a hint of apprehension. They were clearly after the person riding this carriage.

‘Interesting.’ Ace’s lips curled up slightly as he finally decided on a target that could help him leave this city. He asked Cyrus, “How many people are inside that carriage, and can you subdue them without causing a commotion?”

Cyrus was quite content to reply, “There is only one person, and it is as weak as a twig! Are we doing something fun?”

“Yeah, it’ll be fun. Now listen carefully…” Ace replied and instructed Cyrus how to proceed as he quickly began to move.

The driver of this carriage wore a cold yet arrogant expression and leaned back straight as he watched those people bow whenever the carriage passed. He felt as if they were bowing to him, even though it clearly wasn’t the case.

He was also a peak Law Awareness Realm cultivator, so it wasn’t like he didn’t have a statue. However, because of his blind confidence and faith in the carriage’s owner, he failed to notice the vague changes in the two rhinos’ moods as fear shone in their eyes.

“Darn beasts! Walk straight, or do you want to be skinned alive!” The driver coldly smacked the reins when he noticed the rhinos’ steps become ridged. However, while he was busy keeping the rhinos in check, two ethereal beings passed the carriage door despite it being locked and protected with a powerful grade-6 formation. Inside the carriage were extremely luxurious amenities such as a comfortable bed, chairs, tables, and all kinds of fruits and drinks arranged on them. There was even a Qi gathering array embedded in a corner for cultivation.

However, all these luxuries seemed to be bleak in the eyes of a little boy around the age of 10~12 wearing a silver robe. He seems to be in a daze as he sits on a chair like a statue.

Ace was astounded when he saw the little boy inside this carriage. He had expected someone powerful or at least an adult, and a kid was the last person he had hoped to find in this place.

Before Ace could mull over this strange situation, Cyrus moved since he was already instructed by Ace about how to proceed once they ‘infiltrate’ this carriage. The boy suddenly felt a suffocating pressure locked on him out of nowhere, awakening him from his daydreaming. He was terrified when he found that he couldn’t move even a muscle or make any kind of noise. The pressure was simply too horrifying, and despite his soul river core cultivation, he felt as weak as an ant under this pressure.

‘Someone trying to kill me!?’ He thought if the only possible scenario in this situation.

At this moment, an immature yet solemn voice suddenly rang, “You are now under my mercy! Don’t move or try any funny or… or… what was that… oh! Or I’ll break your limbs and…!”

The other party clearly couldn’t remember the threat he was supposed to utter in this situation despite being explained just now, and he even insisted that he wanted to play the villain.

“Alright, you perform your role well!” Ace wryly conveyed at this moment. He felt slightly embarrassed for Cyrus, while Cyrus himself was not.

The boy was really startled at first when he heard a child-like voice and thought the attacker was toying with him.

At this moment, in front of the boy’s aghast eyes, a figure in gray robes with an ordinary face appeared, and sitting on his shoulder was a small crow, at least it seemed this way because of his inky appearance, but his beak wasn’t like a crow’s.

Nonetheless, it wasn’t important since the boy knew things were not looking good for him. After all, he knew in this place, there weren’t many who dared to attack him unless they had a death wish.

Ace looked at the appearance of the terrified boy and felt slightly guilty for putting a little boy through this since he wasn’t expecting him to be in this carriage. But before he could leave, Cyrus had already ‘done’ his job.

Since leaving now would spell trouble for him, he decided to just go with his plan. After all, as long as he could leave this city, he would leave the boy alone.

“Listen, kid, I don’t want to hurt you, but I need your help, and I’m sure you can help me. Let’s make a deal; if you agree to help me, then I’ll leave without hurting you, and I might even reward you for it. What do you think?

“Because if you don’t want to behave, then my little partner over here will lose his patience, and let me tell you, we don’t want to see him lose his patience since he had already burned cities like these when he lost his patience!” Ace coldly explained and directly made Cyrus a villain.

“What? Really?” Cyrus asked in confusion by telepathy. Even he couldn’t believe he was this fierce, and why didn’t he remember doing any of these things?

‘Could it be that I’m so fierce that I forget when I destroy things in anger? And why does it sound so cool?’ Cyrus seriously wondered as a strange thought took root in his mind. Ace wanted to face-palm himself, and he reproached himself for thinking about letting Cyrus out on his own. Despite claiming to be an adult, he was still a na?ve child, and he was very worried about him.

The little boy wasn’t aware of the truth, and his expression paled even more as he looked towards the little ‘crow’ with extreme dread, as if he were seeing a demon. He wasn’t easily tricked, but he knew someone this powerful shouldn’t have any reason to trick him, especially after that terrifying pressure was still locked on him. That slightly childish voice should also belong to that crow.

Having no choice, the boy quickly nodded his head since it was too hard for him to speak, and he agreed to help Ace since he didn’t want to die a horrible death under that menacing crow! This is how the first legend of the Diabolical Crow, the mount of the Sky Stealer, begins!
