Eternal Thief

Chapter 666 An Idiot

Standing over top of the sword like a majestic statue, this person had a handsome face with a fair complexion, and he looked in his mid-twenties. His long black hair and sword-shaped eyebrows gave him a dour look, while his dark brown eyes were cold and indifferent.

However, as he looked at Aceʼs hooded face, naked disdain was brewing in those cold eyes as if he was looking at a bug.

After observing Ace for a few moments, a hint of astonishment flashed past his eyes because Ace didnʼt speak any word, much less panicked, and like him, Ace was also just looking at him without any intention of speaking first.

He imagined that Ace would panic to see him, even beg to spare his life, but it didnʼt seem to be the case at all.

Furthermore, the more he looked at the long hood, which seemed like a black hole, the more he felt uncomfortable because he couldnʼt see Aceʼs face clearly. But he disdained to use his martial sense on this ʼmortal ant.ʼ

ʼAn Early Stage Qi Soul Manifestation Realm human and this young? Just when did humans become so powerful? Or his appearance is young, and heʼs an old monster who likes to play young?ʼ Ace wondered as he looked at the guy standing on the sword.

Truth be told, Ace was quite astonished seeing someone riding on a sword like a flying beast, and he had never even heard of this kind of method in the golden sky world, especially humans using such a novel method.

Furthermore, the more he observed the other party, the more he thought something was not right, and he even felt a sense of danger from the guy standing over the sword.

Nevertheless, the other party was no doubt human, and this alone was enough to make Ace curious about this place and where it was.

”System, activate face-3.” His face suddenly started to twist under his mask…

At this moment, the man on the sword finally opened his mouth as his deep voice sounded in the calm vicinity, ”Show your face and identify yourself!”

His voice was filled with arrogance as he questioned. That arrogance even ran deep in his bones as he didnʼt even lose his posture.

Ace then moved his hand and revealed his face behind the hood. A 17-year-old human face with an average look and slightly darker complexion was revealed.

Face number three was Ryanʼs face which he used in the middle-level lands, and itʼs been quite a long time since he had used those few human faces saved in his mask.

Most of the faces in his mask were of demons, but in this situation, he didnʼt think it would be wise to show a demon face in front of this guy.

Ace wanted to see if he could fool the other party without having to go against him. Thatʼs why he didnʼt show any cultivation to catch him off guard if he attacked him while underestimating him. But it might work in his favor.

Because this man appeared right before he reached the land, and he was too fast, which could only mean the people behind him had a way to monitor this area, and they sent him to investigate it.

Furthermore, this guy didnʼt seem to know he had appeared from the blackness behind him, or he would have more company or the people behind him simply donʼt care about an anomaly like him, which was quite hard to believe knowing human curious nature!

Lastly, since this guy didnʼt attack right off the bat and give him a chance to identify himself, this means the possibility of the former scenario was relatively high, and he was only hostile because of the ʼunknown identityʼ factor.

But before Ace could even speak, when the man noticed Aceʼs face, his eyes flashed with icy killing intent as he said, ”Impudent! How dare you leave the servant mountain and enter the crystal river with this rotten plank?!”

Ace was baffled by this sudden outburst and didnʼt know what the other guy was talking about. However, he decided to remain silent as his facial expression was somewhat blank.

ʼSince this guy already jumps the gun, let him ride it.ʼ He thought, but he was ready just in case.

The man on the sword frowned disdainfully when he saw the blank expression of the young boy, and he looked nothing but an idiot in his eyes.

”Are you deaf? Mute? Idiot? Or all three?” He inquired again as killing intent in his eyes intensified while the sword under his feet released a sharp sheen.

However, Aceʼs expression remained blank as he didnʼt react. He was waiting to see what he would do under his lack of response. This situation was much better because he had no idea where he was, and speaking anything will only put him at a disadvantage.

He sensed the guyʼs attitude completely changed when he saw he was a fellow human, and vigilance in his eyes vanished, and he became entirely at ease.

The killing intent he was showing was probably just to test if he was really an idiot or not, and even if he wasnʼt, and end up attacking him.  Ace was ready to subdue him as quickly as possible and without revealing his actual prowess, and the easiest way to do it was to let the other party underestimate him.

He knew he would appear a mortal in the other partyʼs view because he hadnʼt masked his cultivation, and that guy wonʼt be able to sense it.

As for the people behind this guy, he will think of it later after saving his life.

However, when the killing intent in the manʼs eyes started to fade, Ace knew his conjecture was correct. But now the question was what would he do to an ʼidiot.ʼ

”Sigh… it was only a false alarm. But why do I have to be the one to deal with this idiot? Letʼs just hand him over to servant mountain and then conclude my report.” He muttered perplexedly before giving the idiot a death glare, ”Little bastard, if I wasnʼt allowed to kill fellow human, then youʼll wish you were dead!”

Aceʼs eyes shimmered with a peculiar glint when he heard this piece of interesting news, ʼNot kill a fellow human? Then there are other races than humans in here?ʼ

Ace felt even more baffled by this possibility, but his thought process was disrupted when a blue haze suddenly rushed toward him from the sword tip.

After making sure it wasnʼt dangerous, he didnʼt resist and let it wrapped it around his wrist, and the next moment, the sword moved toward the sky while dragging Ace like a ragged doll!
