Eternal Thief

Chapter 327



The green skin demon was naturally baffled and couldn’t help but closely looked at the demon in front of him with scrutiny. Before because of his tense nerves, he didn’t seem to notice it, but now.

‘Wait… silver skin like lustrous iron, white silver eyes and silver horns and hair!’ He quickly blurted out, “Y-you’re from the silver-iron demon clan?”

The silver-iron demon showed his beastly white teeth and nodded. “Yes, indeed, I’m. My name is Pablo. Is there a problem?”

“You fool! Get out of my way. This is all happening because you morons can’t keep your place safe!” The green skin demon fumed and couldn’t help but cursed because he had to abandon his house and a small shop because of this war challenge.

Pablo was naturally none other than Ace in disguise.

He came out of the underground chamber just a few moments ago and was flabbergasted when he saw almost every house in the Iron Demon City was empty and when he sensed such a large moment toward the exit of the city at this hour, he was even more shocked.

Ace thought some kind of disaster was coming, so he found this alone demon to question, but now, after seeing this guy dare to berate a silver-iron clan’s demon with such words, he sensed something was amiss.

“Then forgive me!” Ace’s eyes turned cold as his hand flash like dark lightning right behind the green skin demon’s head and instantly knocked him out.

Ace drag the guy into a deserted house and started to soul probe him.

After five minutes, his eyes shimmer with a strange light. ‘Noble Tribe Title War? The Left Ocean Spear, a Qi soul realm cultivator, and incoming Dark Gibbon Demon Tribe, huh?

‘It seemed I’m the reason behind all this, and I have to admit that Livy didn’t leave any liability behind. In his view, Iron Demon Tribe was no longer stable, so he instantly decided to get rid of it without even investigating me.

‘He might’ve thought that Left Ocean Spear could probably fish me out with his strong martial sense if I try to leave the Iron Demon City in panic, and there was likely a gigantic trap surrounding the Iron Demon City right now. According to this guy’s memory, the ocean demon tribe’s carriage didn’t stay in the city and left after announcing the decree.’

Ace couldn’t help but think this way. He didn’t want to underestimate these demons anymore, and he knew they have many mysterious ways to entrap him if he wasn’t careful enough.

But a smirk appeared on his face for some reason as he thought, ‘What if I stole every person’s storage rings and resources from both Iron Demon Tribe and Dark Gabon Demon Tribe during this Noble Tribe Title War right under this Qi soul realm expert?

‘Wouldn’t this will ruin Ocean Demon Tribe’s reputation and face? Hehe, as far as I know, these demons cherish their faces more than anything else. I wonder what kind of consequences they’ll suffer when they cannot capture a mere thief?!’

Although Ace’s thoughts were like this, he won’t take any actions this easily, not before making absolutely sure about if he can escape the monitoring of a Qi soul realm demon.

Furthermore, he needed a solid plan to enter and leave the battlefield before anyone could realize what had happened, and that hideout was the best place he could ask for.

Moreover, he had to ask Noa for her opinion after she woke up from her cultivation state since she knows far more than him about Ocean Demon Tribe’s strength.

Thinking to this point, Ace left the unconscious green skin demon as it is and went back to his hideout. He could’ve robbed the three founding clans of their wealth and resources right now and been done with it, but he didn’t.

Because this wasn’t the right time if he wanted to profit big time, and this will also alert the enemy too soon and revealed his true thievish abilities.

‘Six more days before Noble Tribe Title War!’ a thievish glint flashed past Ace’s dark blue eyes!

In a large meeting hall right inside the Golden Iron Demon Clan’s main estate,

Almost every demon above the river stage was present, as well as the three founding clan leaders.

The atmosphere was as grim as it could be, and it was almost suffocating.

Uriah, the leader of the silver-iron demon clan, was almost spitting flame with his silver-white eyes as he looked at Elian.

He spoke with an icy voice, “Elian if it wasn’t for your Golden Iron Demon Clan negligence this would’ve never happened!”

Trey also chimed in with an equally cold tone, “You bunch of golden shits always arrogantly do disgraceful things in the dark and don’t even let our two clans patrol some parts of the city and now see what has happened! We’re on the brink of extinction!”

The faces of the Golden Iron Demon Clan’s members turned extremely ugly when they heard those two clan leaders berating them, but they didn’t have words to retort them because they were telling the truth!

Furthermore, their own leader, Elian, was just silently listening without even saying anything, so it wasn’t their place to speak as well.

‘Sigh…’ A heavy sigh escaped Elian’s mouth, his expression was no longer haughty like in the past, and he looked just like an old defeated demon.

He slightly nodded his head toward Tray and Uriah in acknowledgment and said, “I know our mistake… my mistakes as the matter of fact.” He lowered his head toward everyone in the meeting hall.

Everyone, including Uriah and Tray, become extremely shocked because they never remembered seeing Elian lowering his head to anyone like this in defeat, nor did he ever speak polite words.

“Clan Leader! Please don’t do this. It wasn’t your fault!” A golden iron demon elder quickly spoke with a hint of sadness in his husky voice.

“Yes, clan leader, it was the fault of those hateful thieves who targeted our city and the imprudence of our superior who just don’t want to hear our plead!” another golden iron demon elder nodded.

Everyone inside the meeting hall silently agreed with those statements. They all hate the word ‘thief’ to the core now, and they will probably kill any thief they find.

However, no one from the other two founding clans spoke as they all wait for their leaders, who were silently looking at Elian with complicated expressions on their faces.

Elian still didn’t straighten his head while completely ignoring his clan’s members’ soothing voices. He was clearly waiting for Uriah and Tray.

Elian know too well that if they all wanted to have a fighting chance, they had to become united, or they’ll die on the very first day of the Noble Tribe Title War Challenge.

Moreover, Elian knew these two clans have many hidden trump cards they were accumulating all these years just to deal with his Golden Iron Demon Clan and if he could make them willingly agree to take those trump cards out, then he was sure they had fifty percent chances of winning this war.

“Hmph… fine, let’s hear what you had in your mind.” Uriah coldly snorted.

He wasn’t a fool and knew they will all going to die if they didn’t stand united. It was just that he never thought Elian would lower his head to them so easily, and this left an unpleasant taste in his mouth when he thought about all those cusses becoming useless that he had thought he would throw at him.

“HUMPH!” Tray was also dissatisfied, but he also didn’t pursue this matter, or he wasn’t the one who fends off fighting.

Elian finally straighten his back with a solemn expression on his face and commanded, “Lay down the map!”

An elder of the golden iron demon clan standing right behind him whiffled his hand and a detailed large map of Iron Demon City appeared on the table.

Everyone’s focus turned to the map.

Elian spoke at this moment, “Everyone in his room may not know about this, not even the other two founding clans, but as you can on this map, there are ten red points all over the Iron Demon City making a circle. These ten points are a city-wide Killing Formation!”

“What?!”

Both Uriah and Tray, and everyone other than the Golden Iron Demon Clan expressions, changed after hearing ‘City-Wide Killing Formation’.

Everyone knew this level of Killing Formation was only presented in duke-level cities, and they also knew anyone who steps inside this kind of killing formation will meet their end as long as it was powerful enough and someone knows how to operate it!

Elian continued with his explanation, “Yes, a Low-Grade-1 Killing formation, which is enough to kill a peak stage Qi golden river core cultivator. This formation was built on an old, unrecognizable ancient formation by our ancestors. This was the last defensive line in case we experience an extinction-level crisis!”
