Eternal Thief

chapter 1270 a new quasi lord!
after a few hours in the portal hall, no one had moved ever since ace had entered the second portal, as they were all curious about why ace wanted to enter the forger abyss. they all have their own speculations, though.
at this moment, the second portal suddenly flickered and churned, drawing everyone's attention. the next moment, ace walked out of the portal.
when vincent saw this, he sighed in relief. his expression changed slightly, and his eyes narrowed because ace now didn't look exhausted at all as when he entered the portal. it was as if nothing had happened.
even someone like vincent, who knew the ins and outs of the forger abyss, didn't have any idea what was going on or if the forger abyss could heal someone so quickly.
but when he thought about it more clearly, a hint of realization flashed past his eyes, 'could it be he exchanged for a powerful soul pill by passing the second trial? after all, since he's a nominal legacy disciple, he's qualified to make an exchange with the guardian spirit as long as he passes the trial. but why would he waste this chance to heal himself when he can clearly demand it from the bank? just what is this brat up to?"
despite ace 'revealing' everything about himself, vincent always had this strange feeling that something was not right. from the beginning, ace never struck him as the type who would sacrifice himself for others or put himself in danger or a disadvantageous position.
it was like everything was under ace's control from the start to the beginning.
however, when these thoughts surfaced in his mind, he quickly dismissed them since he had witnessed everything and felt somewhat ashamed for thinking this way.
even deputy guardian was surprised when he saw ace walking out completely healed, and he wondered if the information they had on the forger abyss was missing something.
deputy guardian deeply glanced at ace, who seemed to be acting as if his soul search had never happened at all. this made him think as if he was looking for something. but just like vincent, he believed everything he personally saw. after his soul search, he couldn't find any fault with ace, so he ignored his natural instinct as a quasi-ascension lord.
but before deputy guardian could reply, his eyes suddenly widened, and then he narrowed them dangerously. he instantly twisted his head towards the closed entrance of the portal hall.
"you dare to spy on here?!" he snorted coldly before a terrifying spiritual pressure burst out of his body as he locked on that certain area.
the deputy guardian naturally alarmed everyone, and their expressions changed when they heard someone dare to spy on them. even ace was startled by this unexpected situation and wondered who was bold enough to spy there.
"hahaha, you're too serious, deputy guardian norman. this little sister was just curious" a bell-like laughter suddenly rang from the entrance, and the next moment, the space suddenly seemed to have cut open like curtains, and a curvaceous figure of a woman in a veil walked out. but the deputy guardian's expression already changed because this woman knew his name, which meant she was someone of the same standing. her background wasn't any worse than his, and her walking under his spiritual pressure was proof of it. this woman was a quasi-ascensions lord! the grand elders were dumbfounded. this entire thing was turning into a huge mess, with one strange thing happening after another, and now another powerful figure suddenly appeared. furthermore, this woman was able to come here while completely going undetected by the guardian spirit, and with how casually she was talking to the deputy guardian, anyone would guess they knew each other, or at least that woman knew him.
but this made the woman even more mysterious, as despite knowing who the deputy guard was, she still dared be so carefree.
at this moment, the deputy guardian's eyes flashed with a hint of realization. when he saw the woman wearing flowery robes, her long blond hair like strands of gold, and golden eyes, he instantly guessed who she was and her background.
"you are from the sun clan of the sun and moon king valley?" he coldly questioned.
the woman's eyes curled like a crescent moon. she was defiantly smiling, and she didn't deny it at all. she nodded, "it's quite an honor for our sun and moon king valley to be known by the prime heavenly wealth king sect. i'm eleanor sun, an inner valley disciple of the sun valley!"
'sun and moon king valley and prime heavenly wealth king sect... ace's eyes widened slightly like everyone else because the title 'king' could only be used by third-grade sects.
this also made it quite clear that this woman was also from the king sect!
