Eternal Thief

753 Did he Trick me?



Today, another entrance test for the Azure Wind Mountain Sect was concluded, with only a single person managed to pass it. 

Unlike the other four sects, the Azure Wind Mountain Sect's entrance test was ten times more difficult because of its superior lineage as well as the most powerful person of the human race residing here. 

The person who passed today's entrance test was an average human girl with plain green clothes and big bright brown eyes, which were lively and somewhat apprehensive as she stood in front of an Elder clad in gray robes with an azure mountain emblem. 

"Little girl, your name is Niele, and you hailed from South Azure Wind Mountain Region?" The elder coldly questioned. 

Niele respectfully yet timidly replied, "Y-yes, Elder!"

"You had shown an extraordinary performance, probably one of the best entrance test performances in the past hundred years. However, a talent like yours can't go unnoticed in our own territory.

"So, we did a little background check according to the information you registered during your registration and found that you are from a village which had been recently destroyed by someone and every last person there had been killed. But you are the only survivor and even a genius on top of that. 

"It's not like I'm doubting you or not feeling any remorse for your loss, but we are specially ordered to inspect people like you with ambiguous backgrounds. So, I'm going to give you a soul contract to sign, and if nothing happens, I won't ask any further questions about how you get your cultivation knowledge since we respect individual secrecy. 

"Once this doubt is clear, I'll recommend you to an Inner Court Sect Elder, and I'm sure they will be thrilled to have a talent like you under their wing. Now, sign this soul contract, and you'll be part of our ancient lineage, and we'll do everything in our power to search for those degenerates who killed your loved ones as we protect our own with every fiber of our being!" 

The Elder solemnly stated before he waved his sleeve, and an ethereal blue parchment appeared in front of timid Niele, who now appeared beyond moved with teary eyes and nodded, sniffing. 

Without hesitation, she used her martial Qi to touch the parchment. 

But the moment she touched that parchment with her Qi, a transparent interface appeared in front of her, and the elder standing in front of Niele seemed completely oblivious about its appearance.

Niele's timid expression didn't even flinch, but inwardly, she was grumbling with indignation, 'I need to spend 50K to enter this stupid place while I'll earn the same amount in return? Aren't I just working for free for that stingy Leader? Did he trick me?' 

Indeed, Niele was none other than Winter, who had finally found her way into the Azure Wind Mountain Sect after a long journey. In fact, she was the same person who was behind the annihilation of that village and that girl she impersonated. 

Winter's personality was quite cold as she didn't leave any loose ends behind because she couldn't take any chance in this place. Just one mistake, and she'll find herself surrounded by enemies from every corner. 

Although she knew the sects would be alerted because they might be afraid of Ace infiltrating their ranks as his reputation was not a joke. But she never expected they were this careful that even spending a Grade-6 soul contract on a nobody from a village and even investigating her background. 

Now she was glad that she killed everyone and also didn't hide any information about the owner of this body, or she might be under even more scrutiny. 

As for the talent she showed, it was very calculative, and she only showed enough that can draw the attention of the Inner Court of the Azure Wind Mountain Sect. 

The Sect was divided into Outer, Inner, and Peak Courts, and disciples were arranged in these three courts according to their talent, not cultivation base. 

Winter had thoroughly investigated the structure of the Azure Wind Mountain Sect. Still, there was only so much information in the outside world because the sect didn't leak any core information. 

But she knew if she wanted to complete the next phase of her mission, she needed to be at least an Inner Court Disciple, which was closer to the core areas of the sect because Alina might be held in one of those areas. 

But the price for this endeavor she had to pay was simply too much, yet she had no choice but to pay it while she could only cuss Ace for it.

Seeing her 50k HP going in smoke on literally nothing, Winter felt her heart bleeding and swore to demand them back from Ace once she found him.

When the elder saw the soul contract was successfully established, which was filled with all sorts of conditions and specific points about not having any connection to the Sky Stealer or having any intentions of harming the sect, his cold face broke into a gentle smile as he looked at the timid girl who seemed completely innocent and loveable. 

"Welcome, Niele, to the Azure Wind Mountain Sect!" 

The moment he uttered those words, another interface appeared in front of Winter.
