Eternal Thief

Chapter 510 Eighth Day Of Auction

Inside VVIP Room No.3,

At this moment, the Exalted Demon King had a deep frown with a hint of fury in his eyes as he looked at the kneeling Grand Elder of Puppeteer Clan in front of him.

The five other youths inside the room also looked with incredulity and outrage.

After the Grand Elder reported the robbery of Black River City, they all felt like this was some big joke. But sadly, it wasnʼt after the Exalted Demon King confirmed it with his information network.

”Henry, itʼs been a hundred years since I last saw you.” Exalted Demon King said as if nothing happened, but the anger in his voice was apparent. He coldly said, ”It seemed youʼve grown old and… senile.”

Grand Elder or Henry trembled when he heard this, and he knew the Exalted Demon King was calling him incompetent in a roundabout way.

Everyone knew how calm and polite the Exalted Demon King was all the time, and very few demons knew that his appearance was just a façade, and he was ruthless and unforgiving to anyone who would make mistakes.

The magistrate clans knew about this since they belongs to the same tribe.

The Exalted Demon King was a dictator and he wonʼt accept any mishap in his province. Especially anything remotely related to stealing.

However, now, some robbers looted one of the magister cities and even managed to escape unharmed. It was a colossal blunder on the Puppeteer Clanʼs part, and they had to suffer the consequences.

When Henry said he was calling in a favor, he didnʼt mean to use it to capture those robbers. But he wanted to use that favor in exchange for the Exalted Demon Kingʼs mercy!

Exalted Demon King coldly spoke without any emotions, ”Very well, since youʼre using that favor right now to earn my forgiveness, you can have it.”

Henry had a massive sigh of relief.

”But…” this work sent chills down Henryʼs spine.

”But the Puppeteer Clan will withdraw from their position as a Magistrate Clan and return to the domain. A new clan will take over your position. Do you concur?” The Exalted Demon King coldly looked at Henry without even blinking.

ʼSigh… at least I save everyone from execution. As long as our clan exists, weʼll rise again.ʼ

With such thoughts in his mind, he solemnly accepted, ”I concurred! Thank you for this kindness, Your Majesty!”

Exalted Demon King merely nodded, ”Now go back, Iʼll send someone to take control of the situation in the Black River.”

Henry quickly thanked him again before he promptly left without asking about the robbers. He knew just escaping with his and his clanʼs life was already a miracle.

He wasnʼt worried that those robbers would get away with this after angering the Exalted Demon King. Furthermore, he had many methods to locate them!

After Henry left, a youth with a resemblance to Exalted Demon King spoke with glum, ”Royal Father, are we really letting the Puppeteer Clan off the hook with his blunder?”

Exalted Demon Kingʼs lips curled as he coldly said, ”Although I let them go, their life wonʼt be a happy one from now on. You guys can also kill their hires in the demon gate trial as long as you got the chance. They no longer belong to our Demon Tamer Team.”

Those youths smiled grimly when they heard that as killing intent flashed past their eyes.

”As for those rebels, if they think theyʼre like that degenerate thief and can get away with this treason and sully my lands, then theyʼre already dead. No one can escape my petsʼ detection!”

”… Room No.3,439 won this Ice Fairy Sword for 9 million peak-grade-2 Qi stones!

”So, this concludes the auction of the third day. Iʼll see you all in two hours!”

Lilly announced the end of the third-day auction and left the stage!

Ace was calmly looking at the projection mirror. He didnʼt bid for anything today since most of his attention was on the house mission. Furthermore, there wasnʼt anything that caught his eye at todayʼs auction.

ʼThree or four days more before they reached the peripheries of the forbidden plains. But that Exalted Demon King is famous for his beast-taming abilities and I had seen him moving against the fox mountain that day.

ʼAlthough he might not seek the royal zoneʼs help or even bother reporting it to the royal council since this was robbery done by an infamous bandit gang. But with their information network, it wonʼt be late before they find out about this robbery.

ʼEspecially the Life Demon Association. Theyʼll instantly know what kind of formations were used by the Moon Robbers and theyʼll connect them with me. Once that happened, either Exalted Demon King like it or not, he had to help them.ʼ Aceʼs eyes narrowed slightly.

Even though the house mission was completed smoothly because of the life demon auction. But the house membersʼ escape also had become extremely difficult if they were not careful.

Almost every bigwig of the demon race was present in this auction. If they took an interest in Moon Robbers because they were connected with the elusive Sky Stealer, the result would be disastrous for Noa, Freya, and Winter!

Thatʼs why Ace required them to come here in five days before anyone would make a move.

Furthermore, because the auction grand finale would be around the corner, they might not even move and decide to complete the auction before starting a massive manhunt.

By that time, if Ace retrieved his house members back in the thiefʼs house space, he knew no one would be able to find the Moon Robbers ever again.

Neither would anyone think they were in the auction; this action was simply too daring!

Thatʼs why Ace was still sitting calmly here while also scrutinizing the actions of the association. If they decide to act while the auction was still ongoing, he would be the first to know because of his disguiseʼs status!

On the sixth day of the Life Demon Auction,

Without any hitch, the auction was moving smoothly, and Ace didnʼt notice or heard anything from the upper floor, which means they still didnʼt know about the robbery at the black river city.

ʼEither I underestimated the Exalted Demon Kingʼs ability to keep the information under wrap or I overestimated the Life Demon Association intellect network. Well, whatever the case is, this will be over soon…ʼ Aceʼs lips curled.

On the morning of the eighth day of the Life Demon Auction,

As the grand finale was coming closer, the items appearing for auction were getting better and better, and the VVIP rooms became more active with this as well.

Ace also won many bids for soul skills and many sword base skills in these past days, rendering everyone speechless. He was as fearsome as any VVIP when it came to bidding because he never lost a single bid whenever he made a move.

Furthermore, many VVIPs, especially the Life Grandmasters were wondering just how Ville was and how did he accommodate so much wealth.

As for the Life Grandmaster of the Villeʼs branch, he was coldly celebrating because in his eyes the moment they left this auction, everything that belonged to Ville will be his.

While the eighth-day auction was still ongoing as everyone was glued to their seats.

Ville suddenly left his room as he moved toward the hidden stairs that led to the lower floor and unhurriedly descended.

There were guards appointed on these stairways, but when they saw it was Ville, they didnʼt stop him and let him pass without any question. Only a Life Grandmaster or another Life Master can stop and question him.

Ace reached the entrance of the auction area without anyone stopping or questioning him.

When the guards saw Ville coming out, they quickly greeted him in bewilderment.

”Is something wrong esteem Life Master?” A guard quickly asked with trepidation.

They all knew someone like Ville should be busy with the auction, but he appeared here, which canʼt be anything good.

”No need to agitate. Iʼm only for a stroll. Continue your work.” Ville coolly stated as he walked away with his hand behind his back.

Those guards were baffled by this revelation.

Ace spotted a vast crowd of demons and many camps a mile away from the entrance.

ʼAre they here for the demon gate trial?ʼ Ace thought.

It wasnʼt strange because not everyone got the chance to enter the auction, and some didnʼt have the resources to enter the auction. These tribes were poor, and they all wanted to change their fates by competing in the Demon Gate Trail.

Well, it has nothing to do with Ace since he was here for another matter, which was to retrieve his house members into the thiefʼs house space safety and then return.

”Where are you guys? Iʼm currently in disguise as a Life Master and walking straight from the arena entrance.” Ace expressed in his mind!
