Chapter 1282 Thief's Temptation!

At dusk, a small blue flying ship took flight from the AIG Sect and quickly vanished in the endless sky, leaving behind a blue streak. Vincent and the Grand Elders were watching this scene.

"She finally left!" Edwin sighed with a hint of relief.

Bernard and others also seemed relieved, as if great pressure had been lifted from their hearts. After all, despite Eleanor's amiable attitude, her status was simply too high, so they were all on edge in her presence.

At this moment, Bernard glanced at Vincent, who hadn't spoken, and hesitantly asked, "Sect Master, about the three slots..."

Vincent cut him off before he finished. He dismissively said, "You four seniors can decide among yourselves. I have no one worthy to nominate. You all will also be in charge of taking the candidates to the Sun and Moon Domain while I stay here.

"If there's nothing else, I'm going to seclusion in the secret realm and won't come out until I reach the Quasi Lord Ream. Grand Elder Edwin will manage the Sect in the meanwhile." Done saying, Vincent didn't wait for their agreement and vanished from his spot.

The Grand Elders were startled, and Edwin couldn't help but sigh emotionally, "Sect Master has changed."

Chester snorted, "Does he think he can reach that realm just because he has gotten the chance because of his disciple? I think he had become too arrogant and no longer put us in his eyes."

"Don't be rude." Edwin coldly retorted as he said, "Don't forget the bank is still

stronger than Sun and Moon King Valley. Things are not the same as before, so mind your words."

Bernard winced but said nothing because he knew it was a fact, and they could no longer carelessly go against Vincent like before.

He gravely said, "Let's just focus on selecting the disciples. We need to train them since this chance won't come again! It's not clear if Alan would even remember the AIG Sect. In the end, we can only rely on our flesh and blood!"

In the flying ship that just left, Eleanor was sitting in front of a tea table in a luxurious room. A steaming teapot was in front of her, and she gracefully poured the tea into two cups.

"What, you're still going to hide?" Eleanor ambitiously uttered as her voice rang in the empty room.

However, the next moment, a tall figure wearing a white cape appeared on the other side of the table, sitting in front of Eleanor.

Ace gave Eleanor a meaningful glance before the white cape on his body started to shrink until it became a white ring on his finger. Ace removed the ring, and after a reluctant glance, he placed it in front of Eleanor.

"This treasure is really rare. Even the Guardian Spirit wasn't able to detect me. I must say, in front of my lady's means, mine are inferior." Ace casually smiled.

Eleanor giggled as she waved her sleeve, and the white ring vanished before she offered the teacup. "Try it. I personally cultivate these tea leaves in my herb guardian and create this blend of Solace Tea. I'm looking forward to your input."

Ace looked at the steaming tea cup filled with glittering blue tea. Even without tasting it, he could tell this cup of tea held a terrifying amount of Spirit Qi in it.

But he didn't pick it up and looked at Eleanor, who was looking at him with an expectant gaze, and asked, "Why did you give away the secret realm and slots to the AIG Sect? Does my lady still not trust me? And that was just your way of showing me that if you can give the AIG Sect riches, you can also take them back?"

Eleanor smiled as she casually replied, "You do care about the AIG Sect, huh?"

Ace shook his head as he said, "I owe them nothing, and I've already repaid whatever I owe them. If not encountering my lady, I would've taken the Forger Abyss riches and left. It's that simple. Whether you want to destroy the AIG Sect or make them your pawn, I won't care."

Eleanor's eyes flashed with a peculiar glint, and suddenly, she removed her vile, revealing her breathtaking oval face with a perfect nose and pink lips. However, she was secretly surprised when she noticed that Ace didn't even flinch when she saw her appearance, which was the last thing she was expecting.

A strange anger rose in her heart as she narrowed her eyes coldly and scoffed, "Aren't you a heartless one."

Ace smiled, grew, and picked up the teacup before he sipped the Solace Tea. The rich taste of bitterness was followed by a sweet aftertaste, which filled his mouth. His eyes lit up. "If you don't mind, my lady, can you give me some of this Solace Tea? It's extremely good?"

A hint of annoyance flashed past Eleanor's eyes, "You want to play this game with me?"

Ace shook his head and casually sipped the tea again before he calmly said, "I'm just pragmatic, my lady, not heartless. Aren't you the same?"

"I leh, if you had shown me this side of yours, I might've never agreed to sign the law contract with you." Eleanor coldly stated.

"I've been honest with my lady from the start; I don't know the problem here. Ace pretended to be innocent.

Eleanor wanted to slap him but held herself back because she felt extremely annoyed for some reason. She said, "Alright, I won't care about you, heartless man. So, let's talk business. What do you want to do now? I can't casually take you to the sect, and from what I can tell, since your clone is going to the Prime Heavenly Wealth King Valley, you can't be at two places at the same time, especially in King Sects.

"But I don't know if your disguise ability can fool a King Sect's security and top cultivators. So, if you're exposed, I have no choice but to discard you since it's pragmatic, don't you say?" She smiled meaningfully as she took a comfortable position, showing her mature charm.

But to her disappointment, Ace still didn't show any sign of bewilderment. His eyes remained calm as a lake without any ripples, which made Eleanor narrow her eyes resentfully.

Ace remained silent momentarily before he replied, "If my lady wanted to benefit from my abilities, I want you to send me to the Nether Blood Fiend King Cult."

Eleanor was startled, and her expression became serious, "How do you know about the Nether Blood Fiend King Cult?"

"I heard from the Deputy Guardian Norman. Not only did he tell me about the Nether Blood Fiend King Cult, but also the three righteous and three evils. But it's just superficial knowledge. I still can't understand why these six sects are above other king sects despite being the King Sects themselves, and how could they represent the righteous and evil paths?" Ace casually asked, but his eyes hinted at significant curiosity since he wanted to know this.

Realization dawned on Eleanor at this moment before she snickered with a hint of envy, "That double of yours, huh?"

Ace didn't deny it and nodded, making Eleanor perplexed before she replied, "Since that's the case, then I want to know first why you want to go to the Nether Blood Fiend King Cult despite knowing it's one of the three evils and aren't any weaker than the Prime Heavenly Wealth King Sect."

Ace replied without hesitation, "I want to infiltrate them, and I'm sure I can do it. I just need to be there. Don't reject me, my lady, because if I succeed, you'll have an insider not only in one of the three righteous but also in one of the three evils. "Think about how much you can benefit from the information these two powers had, not to mention treasures of these sects, and you might even have a chance to become the Sect Master of the Sun and Moon King Valley and, on top of that, the hero of human race." Ace's voice was filled with temptation, just like a devil's whisper. Eleanor's eyes brightened the more she heard Ace. If Ace were really able to do something like this, she would greatly benefit from it, and she wasn't worried about Ace betraying her because of the law contract!
