Chapter 358
Eternal Thief
Thomas merely chucked seeing Miler leaving and wave his wineglass and said with a grin, âCheers, young master Miler!â
Milerâs cold harrumph sounded, but he didnât turn around and quickly leave with sullen Grace.
Thomas finally looked at Feng and said with a knowing smile after he looked at those dumbfounded busty maids in Fengâs arms, âBrother, youâre indeed a player. Why donât you come and drink while we chat about life?â
Ace felt his Thomas was quite amusing. He didnât know which tribe he belonged to, nor did Feng have any memory of this demon tribe, but his character was quite to his liking, and he even lends a hand despite knowing Fengâs status.
Ace looked at those two maids, who were bewildered by what he did. He knew Feng wouldâve never dared to offend the cloud demon tribe so bluntly, nor he would flirt with Grace like this, so their confusion and shock were justified.
He said, âYou two go to your room. Iâm going to drink with Young Master Thomas and donât forget to come to my room at night, understand?â
Flora and Dolly quickly snapped out of their stupor and quickly nodded before leaving shyly, but Ace could tell those two were hatching something. But he didnât have time to mull over it for now.
Thereupon, Ace took the seat right in front of Thomas and, without his concern, Ace picked up the red alcohol bottle and pour a full glass for himself and drink it before saying, âGood liquor!â
Thomas was somewhat baffled. He never thought Feng would be this boorish, but he couldnât help but grin widely since he also liked straightforward characters like Feng.
He waved his own wine glass toward Feng and said, âItâs nice to meet someone like young master Feng. Youâre nothing like rumor describes you to be.â
Feng also waved his glass and beamed, âIt is also nice to meet young master Thomas. It seemed you have quite a status yourself since even Miler is afraid of you.â
Thomas merely smiled. âNothing worth mentioning. Iâm still no match for Young Master Fengâs fearlessness and luck with girls.â
Ace knew this guy was talking about those two busty maids and how he teased Grace and chuckled, âNothing special, I donât believe you canât get women with your⦠soul cultivation, Iâm I right?â
Ace deliberately whispered the last part with a faint smile on his face.
Thomasâs smile suddenly vanished and shocked surface in his calm, white eyeballs. âYou can sense my cultivation?â
He couldnât help but ask in wonderment, he knew there werenât many who know about his cultivation path and only those with at golden Qi river core realm or above can see through the nature of his cultivation and he could easily sense Feng was a peak Qi river cultivator, not a soul river!
Thatâs why he was shocked when Feng easily see through the nature of his cultivation.
Ace smiled faintly. How could he not feel those soul waves deeply hidden around Thomas with his soul sense? Thatâs why he even bothered to sit with Thomas beside his interesting character.
He wanted to know how Thomasâs tribe was left alone with a soul cultivation technique without getting wiped out by greedy demons, and why Miler was afraid of Thomas.
Although he wanted to use his soul probe, he wasnât sure if Thomas would sense his soul Qi since Thomas was a peak soul river cultivator and Ace never used his soul probe on a soul cultivator and this wasnât the time to take such a risk just to assuage his curiosity.
Thatâs why he revealed his discovery to Thomas, so he could make it clear he was not simple as Thomas think he was!
Ace said, âHehe, is there any reason I should not be able to sense your cultivation?â He said while sipping on the strong liquor, which was quite enjoyable.
Thomasâs expression finally returned to his calm self, but this time he didnât seem aloof as before. He didnât dare to take Feng as a breeze anymore. A demon who can sense his soul cultivation and remain unfazed cannot be simple!
He said with a calm smile, âIt seemed I belittle young master Feng before. Let me introduce myself properly. My name is Thomas Cheveyo, from Cheveyo Demon Tribe of Spirit Mountain Range.â
Aceâs eyes flashed in an understanding as he said, âYouâre from wildness?â
Although Ace never set foot in those mountain ranges surrounding the provinces, the wild demon tribes were quite famous for being vicious and ruthless, they didnât interfere with the royal demon council or demon provinces and didnât provoke anyone unless someone look for a fight first.
All these demons living in the cities called these tribes âWild Tribesâ and look down on them and even called them uncivilized barbarians. But no one dared to provoke them because they were all united and if they truly become annoyed, theyâll start a war with these demon cities, and they werenât pushovers at all.
Even the Demon Emperor had given all those tribes their special status as Free Tribes of Nature and no one could bully them as long as they didnât break any laws of Almighty Demon Empire and this was the exact reason these wild tribes respect and revere the Demon Emperor as well and consider themselves the part of Almighty Demon Empire.
But Ace never thought he would meet someone from the wildness, and it seemed this demon had a very high status in those mysterious tribes, and even Miler was afraid of him. He became more curious about these Free Tribes of Nature.
Thomas smiled and nodded. âHeh, yes, Iâm from wildness, but that sounds too coarse. We called ourselves tribes of nature, the title his imperial majesty bestows upon us.â
âPlease forgive my rudeness, itâs my first-time meeting someone from Free Tribes of Nature, but it seemed even you guys couldnât resist the temptation of this upcoming trial, huh.â Ace candidly said with a smile.
He wanted some information from Thomas about wildness and those tribes that lived there and after discovering Thomasâs soul cultivation; he knew those wild tribes werenât simple, and they might be more powerful than these demon duke tribes. Itâs just that they donât have any ambition or there just wasnât anything here that interest them!
Thomas didnât deny Aceâs words and nodded in affirmation, âYes, we donât want to miss this chance to see the royal zone as well. Thatâs why many of our brothers sent out in different dukedoms, so we can move toward king domains, even we canât enter there without a marquis or duke.â
Ace nodded in agreement, but he ambiguously said, âI can agree with young master Thomasâs plight, but I still donât believe they wonât give an entry to a soul realm cultivator from free tribes, right?â
Thomasâs eyes shone mysteriously before he neither denied nor agreed and answer, âWho knows since we never have any contact with provinces and even if itâs true, I like the liveness of these provinces and I personally prefer to move in groups.â
âHeh, what a cunning fellow, he clearly knew who Feng was and even Miler knows who you are, and youâre saying you wonât come in contact with provinces, I shouldâve held on to Milerâs memories and not discarded them so soon after extracting what I want.â Ace felt pity that he wonât be able to guess the reason behind Milerâs fear.
Nevertheless, since he now knew Thomasâs identity, he can always keep an eye on these wild races.
âHehe, my eyes are truly opened, Sir Thomas. I never thought I would meet someone like you here, and my view about your tribes is completely changed!â Ace wave his wine glass toward Thomas.
Thomas waved back and smile, âNot just yours, but mine as well. I never thought there would be someone worth befriending here.â
âTo new and old friends!â
Thomas toasted, and Ace accepted.
However, both of them were looking at each other with calm smiles to see through what was hidden behind their smiles.
Thomas suddenly said in a harsh voice, âSince we become friends, I have something to tell you, believe it or not, itâs up to you.â
Aceâs eyes narrowed. This was too sudden, and still said, âLetâs hear it.â
Thomas said, âYour maids are not so simple.â
A sharp glint flashed in Aceâs eyes. âThis guyâs senses are too sharp.â
However, he merely chuckled and said, âI can handle them.â
Thomas felt Feng didnât believe him by his calm expression, but for some reason, he felt Feng already knew about this and his words harbor a completely different meaning, but he wasnât sure, so he didnât speak any further.
But he still felt Feng was worth befriending, and he felt his prowess was also worth having on his side for a special reason. He clearly knew Fengâs status in the ocean demon tribe, so he gave him another piece of advice, just for his own selfishness.
âBrother Feng, I donât know if you know this, but if you have an individual noble demon title, others have to think twice before moving against you!â
