Eternal Thief

Chapter 747 The Ancient Allied Gathering

?

At an unknown location over the Endless Sea, there was a small archipelago shaped like a spearhead. There was no trace of Qi present in this place, and everything appeared extremely ordinary.

But many ships of different sizes and with different flags were anchored around this archipelago.

On the central island of this archipelago, there was a small golden shrine, and within this shrine was nothing except a crimson tablet with a golden blazing sun symbol on it.

At this moment, a large group of people just gathered in a camp a few meters away from this shrine. In this group, there were winged devils, demons, hunters, humans, and finally, magic beasts in their human form with quite distinguish beastly features. 

Furthermore, everyone present in this room has the cultivation of Soul Manifestation Realm! 

"Who would've thought I would be participating in the Ancient Allied Gathering one day? I must say we humans are honored." A middle-aged human with handsome features holding an amiable smile uttered as he sat at the very front of the human ground of six. He was clearly their leader. 

"I also never expected that humans would send their famous First Azure Elder of Azure Wind Mountain Sect. Not to mention, those five behind you are no less famous than you are. You guys are really planning on snatching food from the tiger's mouth, huh?" The completely black Devil sneered coldly at this moment.

The First Azure Elder chuckled without showing any extensive reaction and replied, "In front of your excellency, Shadow Devil Duke, we all are not worth mentioning. Oh, and we are not here to snatch anyone's food. We simply don't dare. We are only here because we received the orders from our Grand Elder, or how could we have found this place?"

The First Azure Elder then meaningfully snickered, "Besides, us, sitting in this place between your excellencies are the proof that our races have already reached an understanding in this matter. So, there is no need to scare us. We are only here to give the younger generation some experience, and healthy competition between youths is what makes them stronger and wiser." 

The eyes of the three races of the alliance were icy and unkind as they looked at First Azure Elder's smiling expression. But no one has words to refute him because he was stating the fact. 

If their higher-ups hadn't agreed, not to mention sitting in this place, those three races wouldn't even let other races who weren't part of the Alliance step onto the land before destroying them with full power. 

Furthermore, they knew the human they were dealing with a venomous snake in human skin. However, the First Azure Elder was acting politely and respectfully. If the fight broke out, the first person they wanted to eliminate with be none other than the First Azure Elder! 

The biggest reason was the First Azure Elder was the 2nd direct disciple of the Dream Shatter Ancestor, and there was nothing ordinary about him!

A demon spoke at this moment in an icy tone, "I'm more interested in knowing what gave the beast race the courage to step in this place, and how do you find it?" 

The focus instantly shifted to the lion face humanoid magic beast sitting there calmly with a long golden mane.

He growled coldly before replying in a hoarse voice, "Don't act so surprised, Northern Council Minister. Unlike these wily humans, we had paid the price already, and that's why we're sitting here. If you have any problem, contact your Imperials, and you'll know. Besides, I think we should all be questioning your Demon Race qualification instead of ours; who can't even seize a petty thief!" 

The demons suddenly shot up from their seats as all of them released terrifying auras on the four magic beast race people.

The humiliation the demon race had suffered from the Sky Stealer was simply too great, and unlike before, no one took them seriously anymore. Now the Sky Stealer has become maim on the demon race's reputation, and every demon hated him to the core and wanted to skin him alive. 

To make matters worse, the Demon Race now even has to ally themselves with the humans and seek help from the Devil Race to capture that thief. While the Hunter Race seemed completely calm despite their princess's impending execution. 

So, their reaction was nothing out of the ordinary, and they all knew both humans and the magic beast found the courage to come to this place exactly because of the demon race's current declining reputation. 

The magic beasts also didn't hear to play as they responded by releasing their own terrifying aura, and they were ready to transform into their true form. 

"Alright, that's enough!" A crimson devil coldly uttered, "This time, the Ancient Allied Gathering will be held by five faces instead of three. If anyone has a problem with this arrangement, then they can leave. But if anyone tries to cause trouble before the secret realm opens, the other races will fully retaliate against them. Now, if you two sides didn't stand down, then don't blame others for your own foolishness." 

The demons had no choice but to swallow their anger since they knew they were not in the position, while the magic beasts merely sneered and sat down. 

However, the demons have already marked the magic beasts as someone they had to kill one way or another, either in this place or in the secret realm. 

"Now, we'll start with the distribution of the entrance slots, and this setting is final, and there will be no change made to it. Because this destitution was made by the three rulers of the top three races so anyone who has a problem can keep it to themselves." The devil coldly uttered, and no one retorted as everyone became solemn.

"The Fiery Hell Secret Realm will be opened in three weeks. I don't need to tell anyone about the restrictions on age and cultivation since I know everyone comes prepared, so I just save everyone time and go on with the slots. 

"Every time the Fiery Hell Secret Realm opens, 1000 Participants can enter in total whether we send them all together or in small groups. The capacity is 1000.

"The Devil Race will have 300 slots, Hunters 250, Demons 200, Humans 150, and Beasts 100!" 

"Ridiculous!" The Northern Council Minister instantly shot up from his seat furiously. They were supposed to have 350 slots but ended up getting 200, so his reaction was called-for. 

Furthermore, even hunters were getting fifty more slots than them which were even more humiliating than getting 200 slots. 

"As I said before, contact your imperials if you have any problem. Don't make a fuss here, or I'm pretty sure everyone here will be happy to have 200 extra slots up for distribution." The devil nonchalantly uttered, but his voice was laced with malice. 

In the end, the demons could only ground their teeth and storm out of the camp as their hatred for the Sky Stealer climbed to a whole new level!
