Eternal Thief

Chapter 1201: Forget the Past, Live in the Present!



In a beautiful valley, a fairy-like woman adorned in a silver dress, her peerless face half covered in a veil, looked around the valley with her mesmerizing silvery eyes as if she were confirming something.

After a little while, she waved her sleeve, and the next moment, four figures appeared in front of her. But the moment they appeared in the atmosphere of the Mortal Ascension Heaven, their confused expression instantly stiffened as they felt suffocating and hard to breathe. The Qi here was extremely potent for them.

The veiled woman sighed, as she had expected this, and then released an invisible aura, enveloping the four people. They were almost suffocated, and only then were they able to breathe again.

However, they all didn't care about this strangeness as they instantly looked at the woman in the silver dress with bewilderment, disbelief, and ecstasy. They were two men, one middle- aged and one wizened, while the other two were beautiful women.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"A-Alina?!"

One of the women, with a mature, charming face and bewitching figure, her skin was as white as snow, and her white hair was tied in a high bun, uttered with a hint of disbelief and motherly joy.

She didn't wait for Alina's reply, for she was a mother, and she knew the woman in front of her was none other than her daughter, whom she missed terribly. She quickly ran over to her and hugged her tightly with teary eyes.

Alina didn't avoid her warm embrace, as she was also emotional. No matter what opinion she had of her parents, she still loved and cared about them, especially her mother.

"M-mom..." Alina called softly as she hugged her mother back. Her heart was filled with warmth, yet there was an unknown hesitation.

The middle-aged male in gray robes, handsome face, and long bright silver hair draped over his wide shoulders, couldn't help but feel complex emotions as he saw his daughter, who had completely changed, hugging her mother. He wasn't like his wife, and he knew what he had done in the past, and he couldn't bring himself to face his daughter.

After all, he knew that if he and his clan were alive today, it was all because of his daughter's man, or they would've perished with the Golden Sky World that day.

It was also the same man he and his wife held in contempt and scorn in the past, yet after they realized his capabilities and experienced his unknown means, they felt ashamed, and the same goes for the old man, Herman.

In fact, the entire Silver Ice Hunter clan was indebted to that person, and they all knew they were living without care because of him. Now, seeing Alina, they can't even see through her cultivation anymore, and on top of that, this unfamiliar environment, they knew it was probably also because of that person.

Lillian, who had lived in the thief's space and knew about Alina's decision about the bloodline change, was the only one who was relatively calm. Ace had shifted her into the living space ring because she was alone in the thief's space and always worried about Alina.

Lillian also revealed some matters to the Silver Ice Clan about Ace but never revealed his secrets or Alina's decision about changing her bloodline. She was afraid it would not only offend Ace but also worry Alina's parents, Bryan and Gloria.

But now that Alina had appeared again, it meant she had succeeded in acquiring that powerful bloodline, lifting a huge burden over Lillian's heart. She was also glad that Alina wasn't avoiding the people closest to her.

At this moment, Gloria finally let go of Alina and looked at her with love and worry, "How have you been? What took you so long to reach out? Your dad and I were worried sick. Even little Lillian won't tell us anything. Where is our benefactor? We want to thank him personally for saving us and taking care of you!"

Alina was slightly surprised. She could tell that her mother's words were genuine, and she couldn't help but feel a tingle of happiness, as she was worried they might still have misgivings about Ace.

For this exact reason, she didn't let Ace meet them and put this meeting on hold because she wanted to see her parents' attitude first. If they still didn't acknowledge Ace or acknowledge his saving grace, it might hurt Ace, and she didn't want that.

She even thought that she would cut ties with them if they still didn't turn a new leaf. But it seemed that wasn't the case, and they were grateful to Ace for being their benefactor.

"I'm fine, Mom. I couldn't reach you because I was accepting a very powerful inheritance he gave me. He didn't meet you all because Ace had an important matter to handle. He couldn't make it, but he gave his regards and promised to meet you guys once he took care of that matter." Alina replied.

Everyone was surprised when they heard about 'powerful inheritance' except for Lillian.

At this moment, Bryan spoke hesitantly, "He never met us, even when he saved us. Could it be he didn't like us? I know we haven't treated you well in the past, but I want to tell you that it was all me; your mother was always against it. But I have no choice. So, if you are angry, please don't hate your mother. I'll also apologize and thank him on behalf of the entire clan. I don't want any rift between him and you because of us!"

Alina looked towards her father with a complicated look in her eyes. She never expected the dignified Ice Lord to apologize and lower his head one day. She knew how prideful he was, and she could also understand that what he did in the past was to protect the clan from the Blood Ancestor. His words almost extinguished her resentment for him.

Gloria sighed as her heart ached. She knew her husband better than anyone, and despite her own resentment, she never showed it.

After all, as the clan leader, he had to make decisions for the entire clan, and he couldn't choose his daughter over everyone. She knew sending away Alina and then handing her over to the Blood Ancestor was like cutting off a piece of his own heart, yet he had done it! That's why she could never hate him; she knew he was the one in most pain. She looked at Alina with hopeful eyes, as she really wanted her daughter to forgive Bryan. It might not change anything, but she knew Alina's words meant a lot to him.

After a little silence, Alina finally spoke, "I don't hate anyone, and I know what you guys did was for the survival of the clan. But it's all in the past. After all, I was able to meet him because of your decision, and meeting him was the happiest thing that had ever happened to

me.

"You don't need to worry about it. He also didn't hate you all. He wanted to meet you all with me. But he held himself back because I wasn't around, and he wanted to follow our tradition and officially asked my hand in marriage by receiving your acknowledgment and blessings." A hint of redness appeared on my face when I said the last part.

Everyone was surprised and astonished, as they never expected Alina to be able to say something so bold.

Gloria even grinned as she nodded in understanding, "I guess we were worried for nothing. Our future son-in-law knows how to follow traditions. Don't worry. I can tell that you are also in a hurry, so we'll quickly marry you to him. After all, our future son-in-law is very capable, so you have to make sure to stick with him, or else someone might steal him from you!" Alina blushed even more before a bitter look appeared in her eyes. She knew the last part had already happened and couldn't help but secretly clench her teeth when she thought about that hateful she-devil's gloating face.

"Anyway, things are different now because you guys are no longer in the Golden Sky World, which was actually just a tiny part of the Mortal Sky Heaven. We are not even in the Mortal Sky Heaven but in the upper heaven known as the Mortal Ascension Heaven!

"The Qi suppression you felt before is also because you were exposed to the Spirit Qi of Mortal Ascension Heaven. You need to slowly cultivate and get accustomed to the Spirit Qi if you don't want to suffocate to death.

"I'll help you and all the clansmen familiarize yourselves with the Spirit Qi and help you settle down before I leave!"

This massive revelation left everyone flabbergasted. They had never even heard about Mortal Sky Heaven before, but now they were suddenly in Mortal Ascension Heaven!
