“Your Highness, I have an important report to make!” Killer was standing outside a closed door as he spoke with a hint of urgency in his husky voice.
“Enter.” A mild voice of a male rang.
Killer hastily entered the room and saw the masked demon sitting cross-legged on a futon.
“What happened? You seem quite in a hurry? Did you find our target?”
No one can see his expression, but his voice was filled with anticipation.
Killer’s respectfully answered, “Yes, Your Highness, I indeed found his recent location.”
“Recent? You an he’s no longer there?” his voice grew a little forbidding.
Killer’s pitch-black eyes shimred in a dark light as he said darkly, “It happened a week ago, your highness. After I was secretly scouting the blade province’s places where that hex demon might hide, I heard he appeared in the city called ocean demon city.
“This city was the duke city of the sa duchy where that thief appeared before, and it seed he never left that duchy at all, and we were searching in an opposite direction.”
“Is that so? Well, I have to give it to him, I simply thought he would run away from that duchy after he knows the royal council was after him, but who would’ve thought he will choose to stay there and in the main city where the chances of his captivation were quite high.” His voice grew extrely frosty.
Killer nodded in affirmation, “Indeed, but we can’t be blad because I already scan the entire duchy before I left for other places, but sohow he managed to escape my detection. It seed he isn’t just a simple reckless thief, and he might have so other ans to his disposal, or he might not have dared to appear.”
“Maybe. Tell
about what he did this ti?” He asked.
Killer said, “He theft again and this ti he stole the entire treasury of this ocean demon tribe and the duke tried to completely hide it. But this thief caused a trendous commotion in the city thereafter and drew everyone’s attention in the end.
“Furthermore, I didn’t find the Duke anywhere when I reached the place. It’s clear he escaped after failing to hide the news about the thief and from further investigation, I presud he was hexed just like the soul realm demon we get rid of before.
“He was afraid of getting killed and ran away, abandoning his tribe. The Blade Demon King also sent an envoy who just happened to be this renegade demon’s father, and he completely locked down the city to appease the situation.”
The masked demon’s amusing voice sounded, “Oh? It seed our reputation is quite grand. Nonetheless, from what you just said, it seed only this renegade was hexed this ti?”
Killer replied respectfully, “Yes, Your Highness, besides this demon only the treasury was hexed with the sa owl mark, and a ssage was left. Furthermore, this ti this thief used quite a unique thod to announce his arrival while only hexing one place with his signature hex. I also presud he wanted to announce sothing this ti with this thievery.”
“What announcent?”
Killer flip his hand suddenly and a pentagon coin appeared in his hand, he respectfully handed it to the masked demon.
The masked demon flipped the coin a few tis, deep in thought, as he saw the ‘I’m Back’ side of the coin for a while.
Suddenly, he burst into laughter.
Killer’s eyes grimace. He knew this, the masked demon was completely enraged. He was also enraged when he saw this coin and the symbol on the treasury. Likewise, he could tell this thief was deliberately leaving such words, and they were most likely targeted at them.
Because they destroyed two tribes and turn the entire city into a black wasteland just to kill this thief, it seed he was not only afraid, but he seed to be even more daring. With this thievery, he wanted to slap their faces, and he has succeeded.
“Hehehehe… it seed he wanted to challenge ? This degenerate wanted to challenge ?!”
His voice was filled with killing intent as the coin in his turned into fine particles.
Killer didn’t dare to speak and stood there respectfully. But his eyes were also filled with boundless rage and killing intent.
“Announced in the entire provinces, as long as they can find any clues about this thief, I’ll give their youths three free passes in Demon Gate Trials. I want everyone to look for this prick. Since he wanted to play, let’s play!”
“As your command.” Killer bowed slightly.
“As for this tribe that was fell victim to this degenerate, destroyed them. I want to let everyone know the consequences of letting this bastard roam free, and this will also motivate them as well!” He coldly uttered.
This ti, Killer didn’t quickly agree and hesitantly said, “This could be troubleso. I don’t think Blade King will watch this ti.”
They both know the last ti Blade King remained silent and give them face because they were only targeting so random tribes which he regarded in little value, but he was displeased nevertheless, especially because of Henrik’s death.
This ti, this tribe was a duke tribe, and they had deep ties with Blade Demon King. If they took such action without his opinion, that guy might fight them, and they knew Lunatic Blade was capable of such a reckless move!
“Hmph… spare soul realm cultivators and so of their promising youths. That’s my bottom line. If he doesn’t agree, then he can try his luck by all ans. Besides, I don’t think he would disagree with my decision because according to the rules of the demon empire, any tribe chief who’s deed a criminal by the royal council and then escape his punishnt, his tribe had to pay! Since this demon run away without showing his face, this ans he was hex, and he’s a threat to our race, so he deserved to die. But since he escaped, his tribe can pay on his behalf! These ingrates are forgetting who their ruler is, it’s ti to tighten their leashes!” His voice was filled with vicious bloodlust.
Killer’s eyes shimred with cold light as he respectfully answered, “I’ll imdiately forward your order to the council.”
“Since this is out of the way, did you find the other person I told you to look for?” the masked demon voice was cooled down.
Killer answered, “I have already investigated this All-Knowing parrot. It seed no one has ever seen him and from where he operates this syndicate. But I found three demon kings are supporting this syndicate from the shadows, and I’m afraid, even they might never see this All-Knowing Parrot. It’s like he’s a ghost.”
“Oh? Approached those demon kings in my na and tell them I want this All-Knowing Parrot and his syndicate. As long as they can do sothing about it, I’ll grant them one free pass in demon gate trial each.”
He said coolly as if this matter was a done deal.

In a spacious hall,
A peal of lodious laughter could be heard, making the empty hall’s atmosphere extrely lovely and jolly. But alas, no one was there to witness or enjoyed it.
The sa voice, filled with ecstasy, rang again. “I never thought you would be so daring to even appear near to the place where you almost got killed and nearly exposed . But I had to say you’re quite sothing to even dare to challenge the imperial envoy and slapped on his face.”
An extrely alluring demoness appeared right in front of the open window as she looked at the half moon. There was a pentagon coin between her long, slender finger.
She mumbled with a srizing smile, “I never thought after I heal my injuries from that backlash inflicted by that bastard, I’ll receive another astonishing news about you.
“Well, it also saves
the trouble of finding you, Sky Stealer. No one on this entire continent knows you’re also a genius sword cultivator with an elent sword intent except , and your art of disguising and fooling others even left
in awe. But can you hide from
with that new face of yours… Feng!”
—

The entire outer provinces know about this now and many starting to truly fear this thief.
However, the fear for this thief reached another whole new level when a grave announcent was made by the Royal Demon Council, which sent a chill to everyone’s spine.

Furthermore, from now on whoever ca in contact with the Sky Stealer or fell victim to his sches will face capital punishnt and if they dare to escape their tribes will have to pay in their stead!
