The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2226: Chapter 2226: Master Thief?

Stole it?

Carson Flores and Selah Ellison Venerable One both widened their eyes in disbelief as they looked at Lucas White.

Are you that amazing?

Sneaking into someone else’s Sect, slipping into their liquor stash, and stealing their most prized collection?

Aren’t you afraid of getting caught and beaten to death?

Lucas White looked at their expressions and laughed, ”Judging by your expressions, you guys don’t know about the Shinkong Sect?”

Carson Flores and Selah Ellison Venerable One exchanged glances and shook their heads.

”We’d love to hear more.”

Lucas White chuckled, ”Shinkong Sect, elusive and skilled. To put it nicely, it’s called the Thief Sect; to put it bluntly, it’s just thieves.”

”Master Thief?”

Carson Flores widened his eyes, suddenly enlightened, ”I don’t know how the Shinkong Sect operates, but I imagine in the Immortal Realm it must be prestigious. The Great Land Sovereign of the Haoyang Sect was quite arrogant, but upon hearing your identity, he was too frightened to utter a word...”

Lucas White laughed heartily, ”He’s not really afraid of my strength. After all, there are plenty in the Haoyang Sect stronger than me, but he’s afraid of me visiting the Haoyang Sect. If I really went, and didn’t steal everything down to their underwear, I wouldn’t leave their mountain!”

Selah Ellison Venerable One curiously asked, ”Are all of your Art of Stealing skills that impressive? Aren’t you afraid of encountering opponents stronger than yourself?”

Lucas White explained, ”The Shinkong Sect focuses on stealing as its Immortal Sect’s core. All disciples rigorously practice various skills, including mastering formation techniques, disguise, stealth, theft, assassination, and so on. Our strength may not be higher than their sect experts, but they may not necessarily detect us, so they are very afraid of us stealing their stuff because I could be anyone around them.”

”Precisely because they’re afraid of provoking me, they’ll lose everything to me at Haoyang Sect... Brother Lin, would you mind if I were just a thief?”

Carson Flores shook his head and laughed, ”Why would I? I wish I could learn that skill, but I can’t.”

Lucas White laughed, ”It’s a pity you already have a sect, otherwise, I would have introduced you to join our Shinkong Sect. Although we don’t have many people and no fixed mountain gate, in the whole Eastern Radiance, even the entire Immortal Domains, who isn’t polite to us?”

Carson Flores asked in surprise, ”No fixed mountain gate?”

Lucas White chuckled, lifted the fine wine Carson Flores poured him, sipped lightly, and his eyes brightened, ”Yes, the Shinkong Sect has stolen countless items from many people, offending many. If people knew where our mountain gate was, wouldn’t we be besieged at any moment, and wouldn’t they rest until they’ve killed us all?”

After pausing, Lucas White praised, ”This wine is not bad, greatly nourishing. After sipping, I detected at least eight precious Immortal Elixirs added to this. Drinking too much might get one tipsy, but it’s beneficial to the body... give mine a try.”

Carson Flores took up his cup and had a sip, his eyes brightening, ”Clearly a strong drink, but upon entering, it’s icy cool. A chill runs down the throat, and after drinking, the medicinal effect swiftly enters the body, warming the whole body like being soaked in a hot spring, with pores comfortably relaxing.”

Lucas White chuckled, ”This is the unique feature of their specially made Profound Ice cellar. If I weren’t afraid of stealing too much, causing them to hunt me down with all their might, I’d empty their entire wine cellar!”

Carson Flores couldn’t help but laugh, ”You’ve already stolen their things, do you really care about how much you take?”

Lucas White had a devil-may-care smile, ”Even thieves have morals, although we often steal, our master taught us to leave some room in everything we do, so we can meet again in the future. Hence, unless there’s a deep vendetta, we won’t sweep through like locusts, leaving nothing behind. This way, even if we’ve offended many sects, they often let it pass seeing how considerate we are.”

Carson Flores couldn’t help but laugh, ”That’s true. For instance, if they brewed a hundred vats, and you took three to five, the sect might still try to catch you, but they wouldn’t send all the experts, chasing you like mad dogs.”

Lucas White nodded, ”That’s about right... You’re probably not going back to Mingxiang Valley. Where are you headed next?”

Carson Flores pondered. With Lucas White’s strong capability and stealth skills, if he were to steal the Harmony Spring, wouldn’t the chances of success significantly increase?

Carson Flores replied, ”Green Bird City.”

Lucas White casually asked, ”Green Bird City, that’s quite far. What are you going there for?”

Carson Flores answered, ”Green Bird City discovered a Secret Realm, currently being explored. There’s something in the Secret Realm I need, so I’m going to try my luck.”

Lucas White curiously asked, ”Care to share what it is?”

”Harmony Spring.”

Since Lucas White had helped Carson Flores, Carson Flores didn’t mind sharing this news with him. If Lucas was interested, couldn’t they cooperate?

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Lucas White’s eyes lit up, ”Healing Holy Water... Harmony Spring?”

Carson Flores nodded, ”Yes, what, Brother Bai, are you interested?”
