《Eternal Thief 》Chapter 135: Stealing a Person!
Advertisement
After Aden sent the confirmation about those two youths' superficial backgrounds, the noble families immediately take action and send many experts to silent them and retrieve their storage rings.
In the middle of the night, the Zander city was as silent as a graveyard, because the Zander family has given the order to empty the area around the Inns where those two youngsters were staying without alerting the targets.
They didn't want anyone to witness this since it will stain their high status.
Although in the morning everyone would guess what had happened after seeing those two dark horses absent, no one would dare to say anything.
Every evidence of their existence would be erased, and no one will mention them again. This is just how things are in the cultivation world. Without status and power, you are nothing but a disposal.
Strangely, those two youngsters didn't run except vanish for more than an hour. They returned to their rooms and now resting there.
In these experts send by nobles, there were fifteen Qi foundation realm cultivators, five of them were middle stage and ten of them were at the early stage.
One can easily guess by this; the nobles didn't underestimate those two just by noticing their weak cultivation. They were dead serious about killing them, especially Javier; many hated him after what he did today.
Ace's eyes were closed as if he was meditating, but that was not the case. He was observing the area with his soul sense.
For half an hour, Ace felt many powerful Qi waves outside his inn. However, they didn't make any move as if they were waiting for someone or someone's command.
At this movement Ace felt a familiar soul signature and a smile creep out on his blank face, 'Hah, it appeared my bashing truly worked.'

Outside the Inn where Ace was staying, many black-clothed figures in masks were hiding while encircling the Inn to stop Javier from escaping.
At this moment, a lavishing carriage stopped just outside the Inn's door, and three figures disembark it.
One of them was a handsome young boy of the age of 14 or 15, while the other two were old men in their late fifties. They were in luxurious robes and wore haughty expressions on their faces.
"Young Lord, that brat is here." One of the old men respectfully spoke to the young boy.
"Since it was father's mission to kill him and retrieve my honor, I will do it alone don't interfere or my uncle will nag me to no end if I can't even kill a third gate ant." The young man gravely warned, he was not in a good mood.
These three were none other than Victor Zander and Zander's family two head butlers.
Patrick sent Victor here because Javier has humiliated Victor the most and this is a tremendous blow to young Victor's confidence. His father has told him to kill that person who humiliated him and regain his dignity or never come back!
However, Patrick still sent these two high-stage foundation building realm butlers with Victor, just in case if anything goes south to protect him.
Patrick wasn't a fool and knew there is something fishy going on with those two targets because they had vanished in the eyes of many peak qi gate realm experts and strangely they didn't run and returned.
"Young Lord, please let us lure that brat here since this space is not proper to fight and by doing this we could also witness your glorious victory." The other old man said with passion, but a cunning glint flash past his old eyes.

They both know Victor's stubborn personality too well and they didn't want to put him in danger by sending him alone inside. That's why this old man made this silly excuse to coax Victor to comply willingly.
Just as he expected, Victor instantly imagine his glorious victory seen by many and quickly agreed with the cunning old man, "Fine, but don't hurt him, I don't want others to say I only finished an already beaten dog."
"Why of course, I'll make sure of this." The old butler smiled as he was about to enter the inn to drag that brat out.
He was also furious. After all, Javier has humiliated the Zander family by pointing his finger at Victor and, he as a loyal servant of the Zander family would never take it sitting.
"YOUNG LORD!!!" At this moment, the second butler screech with fright.
The cunning old man quickly turn around to see what has happened when his face also shone with horror as he roared at his brother, "W-where is the Young Lord???"
Victor has suddenly vanished from his position!
"I-I…I didn't see clearly… it was a blur that take away… Young Lord. It was too fast. I can't stop it!" He shuttered as his voice was filled with uncertainty and anxiety.
"Fool! What do you mean by; you didn't see it and can't stop it?!" The other one was infuriated and panic, "Do you know the consequences if something happened to Young Lord Victor?!"
The butler shiver just thinking about the punishment if Victor goes missing under their protection. Patrick would skin them alive as well as their decedents without even caring about their years of loyalty!
"Head Butler Hugh, the target has vanished!" A man quickly appeared at this moment with the report of missing Javier.
The cunning old man's name was Hugh, and a chill ran down his spine hearing this.
"It was him! Damnit, that hateful brat has played us. Search for him, lock down the entire city. It doesn't matter even if you have dug every part of the city to find him. He has Young Lord Victor!" Butler Hugh roar out loud as he also raced away with his brother to search for Victor.
Everyone was horrified hearing this grave information, and every hidden expert around the Inn quickly began the search for Victor.
They didn't even notice it until Hugh give the command and they all know if things go awry with Victor, they all can forget about living!
