Eternal Thief

’First, let’s see if you have the skill to negotiate with me or not!’ Gordon finally moved!

Before, Gordon simply thought things were smoothly moving and this could end without him using any force. But as things progress, he finally understood Ace wasn’t as simple as he seemed, he had something up his sleeve. 

Gordon wasn’t an idiot, and he had tones of experience in life, he knew when someone was up to something and Ace was defiantly up to no good. 

That’s why he wanted completely catch Ace off guard and try to subdue him. If he succeeds, this will end all this drama, but if not, he had to evaluate Ace again and might have to play along with him. 

But one thing Gordon was absolute confidence in was Ace can’t escape today, no matter what kind of trick he pulled. 

When Ace saw Gordon’s silhouette abruptly vanish from the treasure mountain top, he knew Gordon was going to push him. He long predicted this scenario, he knew an old monster like Gordon would not be easily played by him. He had to show his strength first. 

He had long found out that Gordon’s wasn’t at Qi soul manifestation realm because he didn’t have the power to see through Qi soul manifestation realm expert, but from Gordon, he felt the well-hidden Qi fluctuations of a Qi river core cultivator and instantly guess this was one of Gordon’s clone! 

That’s why he completely changed his plans! 

However, even Ace greatly underestimated Gordon’s prowess, in three-second Gordon has covered almost a thousand meters distance and Ace only found him when he was just five meters away from him! 

Ace’s heart palpitated when he saw Gordon was holding a sword brandished with Gray Qi, he suddenly felt a familiar aura from this gray Qi, but he didn’t have time to ponder over it. 

He quickly used the misperception steps to the fullest, he didn’t know if Gordon could see through this movement skill, but he had to try, or he will fall in Gordon’s clutches.     

The thing Ace was mostly afraid of happened, Gordon seemed to be completely immune to his movement skill and slash toward his shoulder with no hind of bewitchment. 

Garden’s felt the strange sensation, but his real level was just too high, and it was not enough to work on him, he instantly slashed toward Ace’s arm to chop it off! 

Ace felt goosebumps all over his body as the gray Qi was about to heck his entire arm. Suddenly a black page appeared in his hand and he quickly used it as a shield. 

’Boom…!’ 

A deafening sound of metals crushing together rang in the area. The dirt around scatted everywhere because of the leftover force.   

’Hmm?’ Gordon was astonishing, he naturally saw Ace using the black page-like shield in the last moment, he simply thought it was just a last-ditch attempt, but this page completely blocked his attack!

He knew just how powerful this gray Qi was, and it will be hard for even a Qi soul cultivator to block it like this, but this black page completely absorbed the attack! 

’What is this treasure?’ Gordon’s eyes shone with interest and desire.

”Since senior didn’t want to keep his word, I’ll have to destroy everything on me and myself!” Ace’s determined, and decisive voice sounded behind from the black page. 

”Do it, I don’t think you can destroy that thing in your hand, and it also seemed your most cherish belonging, I get it from your corpse.” Gordon sneered in a mocking tone. 

He was fully convinced that this black page was the treasure White Crown was after and given to Ace by his parents for safekeeping. He can’t see thought it even with his powerful martial sense, this thoroughly convinced him!   

Ace’s lip suddenly rose into a cold yet mocking smile, ”Are you sure, you can get this after I die? Don’t Senior hear about special treasures?” 

”Stop bluffing and die!” Gordon didn’t even wait to get his hand on that black page and attack with his full might, this time he was even faster and more ruthless, directly going after Ace’s life. 

However, Ace was prepared, his reflexes were top-notch as he managed to shield his neck at the last moment, but the gray Qi still fazed his neck and blood instantly trickled. 

”You senile old man, do you think I’m joking?!” Ace was completely enraged and afraid seeing this old guy was going to attack again. 

The black page instantly vanished from his hand, and he threw his storage ring toward Gordon. 

Gordon was naturally astonished seeing Ace’s bizarre action and the incoming storage ring toward him and stop in his tracks, but he didn’t catch it instantly and form a Qi hand to catch it. After making sure it was completely fine and only a storage ring with no Qi mark, he looked toward Ace, waiting for his explanation. 

”See for yourself if the ’Heavenly Blackness Worldending Technique Slate’ is in there, I don’t have any storage ring on me, you can even check with your martial sense and the ring is open!” Ace quickly put some bullshit name together to give the ’Page 09’ and explain the reason behind his action. 

’Heavenly Blankness Worldending Technique Slate?!’ Gordon was quickly engrossed in this shocking name and hurriedly checked the storage ring he just received from Ace. 

However, his expression turned ugly when he didn’t see the ’Heavenly Blankness Worldending Technique Slate’ inside the storage ring. His eyes turned sharp like blades as he used his martial sense to scan Ace’s body. 

The more careful he scanned, the more his expression started to sink because Ace didn’t have another storage ring hidden on his body nor the ’Heavenly Blankness Worldending Technique Slate’ and couldn’t help but looked at Ace who was grinning at him! 

When Ace saw Gordon’s clouded face, he knew the fish had taken the bait and sneered inside, ’Watch how I play you to death, old goat!’
