Eternal Thief - #895 - 895 Stealing Everything from This World!
The ship Ace was sailing was a high-grad-7 treasure he got from the Moon Secret Realm, and combining it with his heavenly array, this ship might be the fastest ship in the eleven continents.
It was exactly because of this ship that Ace was able to chase after someone who was months away from him and finally close in the distance.
At this moment, the three islands forming a triangle known as the three forbidden countries of the Mighty Demon Continent were surrounded by ships of demon and devil races.
The hunter race’s forces had already departed to their lands on the order of their ancestors, and only a handful of them remained to see Margret off.
The eighty-mile-wide vortex was still whirling at a terrible speed, making a dark hole in the center of three islands. But for some strange reason, the ships outside the triangle weren’t affected by the strong water current of the vortex.
On the deck of the demon fleet’s main ship, in masks, the three ancestors were standing in front of kneeling figures from three races, and all those figures were nothing but terrifying and controlled the massive power of the top three races.
Edward stood in the center between Albert and Margret, wearing a crimson mask, and impassively said, “Behind me is the only passage to our three races, Holy Lands. I don’t need to tell you all that only a handful of you know about the secret of the Holy Lands. Only the members of the royal lineage or those who have merit and proven their worth to their race can enter.
“But why I’m revealing it to you now, might you wonder? It is very simple because now, the world is changing and we need such splendid people more than ever. We kept it a secret because we had no match, but things have changed.
“Although the Union is united, there is still only a single lord. What this implies? It implies that power still regains supreme! Not empathy, kindness, love, equality, peace, or nothing! But only power can change everything!
“Today I, the Devil Ancestor, Demon Ancestor, and Blood Ancestor, will depart to the Holy Lands and enter the life and death seclusion cultivation! We will try to break the final realm wall of this world to snatch back what is taken from us!
“Even if one or two of us perish, even if all perish in this endeavor, I want you all to keep my words in mind. Fight till you have the power to reach the heavens!”
Edward’s solemn words made those top figures of the three races emotional and passionate.
“After we leave, the holy lands will remain open. I want you all to establish a system for the talented younger generation to enter the holy lands to nurture further generations in the best environment in the world.
“Even if the union found out about it, let them partake in selection because once they entered the other side, only death awaits those who do not belong to our three races. This way, we can easily nip the buds of other races.” Edward smiled ruthlessly, “If we came back, and I know we will, the world shall witness the full forces of our three races once more, the true might of the Ancient Allied Conquers!”
“May the Demon God be with you!”
“May the Devil God be with you!”
“May the Blood God be with you!”
All the three races solemnly shouted with burning passion in their eyes.
“Let’s go!” Edward smiled in satisfaction and started to levitate from the deck while the other two followed suit after nodded at their representative.
The three former most influential and powerful people of the golden sky world started to fly towards the vortex eyes.
However, the three of them had never even thought that about fifty thousand meters in the night sky, two hooded figures stood on a broad black sword, and they had witnessed everything.
“Heh, now, who could’ve expected this? The three ancestors who are supposed to be rotting in some graves are all alive.” Winter exclaimed with a hint of trepidation.
Ace, who was beside her, had a grave expression, “This is indeed something I wasn’t expecting. Although I know about the Blood Ancestor, the Demon and Devil Ancestors are even more terrifying than her. Furthermore, now I’m sure the giant demon who chased after me was the Demon Ancestor himself.”
“Ignorant are truly fearless, huh? I must say, leader; you are something else to survive after encountering that ancient relic.” Winter jeeringly stated, but a hint of admiration was present in her voice.
Ace smiled wryly, “Well, I think I’m unlucky most of the time. Anyway, with this information, it is now clear that, including the beast ancestor, the other three ancestors are all alive. But we also got to know that they are still not Law Comprehension Realm Cultivators, at least not yet. We can use this to our advantage.”
Winter showed a hint of surprise, “You don’t mean to say that your targets are the three ancestors?”
Ace sighed ruefully, “Indeed, but if this made you feel better, we don’t need to go after the demon ancestor. However, these holy lands give me the creeps. Do you remember the secret of the Imperial Demon Family?
“Whenever the crown changed heads, the previous imperial family, including the old demon emperor, would vanish except for the new demon emperor, and the ruling period is also fixed.
“Now, after hearing the words of Devil Ancestor, it’s quite clear where they all had gone, and not just demons, but it’s the same case with the devils and hunters. I don’t know what’s going on with these holy lands and why those three didn’t enter that place before, but whatever the case is. This place is probably hiding the most guarded secrets of the three races and their forces.
“I’m willing to go as far as to assume that this secret is related to the invasion of the Golden Sky World, which once belonged to the Magic Beast Race.” Ace solemnly stated while glancing at Winter.
She was basically the original native of the Golden Sky World before the other races invaded her homelands. So, he wasn’t sure how she would feel.
But to his relief, she didn’t seem to care that much as she said with a smirk, “If you’re worried about me losing my composure because of the incompetence of my race, you don’t have to bother. I was betrayed by them once, and I don’t think such a race should even dream about ruling an entire world. What happened to them was just inevitable.
“Now, it’s our time. So, tell me, leader, do you have what it takes to take over this entire world?” She looked deeply at Ace with never-seen conviction in her bewitching foxy eyes shone in a pinkish light.
Ace couldn’t help but surprised for a moment before his lips rose in a thievish smile filled with confidence, “I’m not interested in ruling, nor I’m capable of staying in one place. So how about we change our plan from taking over this world to stealing everything from this world?”
Winter grinned, “Sounds good to me.”
The night sky of a new moon was filled with cold winds as two thieves dived towards the vortex eyes. The world was unaware of the massive change about to take place!
