Chapter 1109  New Ascenders

Lonnie didn't wait around. He quickly took out a soul contract from his storage ring, wrote down the contract, and made sure that there were no loopholes that Kai could exploit.

Although he was taking a huge risk by letting Kai leave alive, he also had a secret plan that would ensure that Kai would die after he fled with the treasure.

Since he can't kill him, it doesn't mean no one else can. Once this place was revealed to the city management, they instantly found Kai. Since Kai could answer because of the soul contract, he would die by either soul search or by simply opening his mouth.

Even if someone replaces out about him taking the treasure, he will be long gone, and he makes sure that Kai will protect this secret as long as he can to buy enough time for his escape!

Kai was biting his lips while clenching his fist tightly. He was feeling suffocating just by thinking how things were turning good from bad for him. Although he managed to preserve his life, he knew it was only temporary. But what can he do? He was completely on Lonnie's mercy.

"Sign this." Lonnie coolly gave him the soul contract, and his tone was irrefutable. He was clearly not going to change anything on the soul contract.

Kai accepted the contract with extreme unwillingness. When he read its clauses, his heart sank because the contract was extremely harsh for him. There was even a condition that he couldn't leave the Sect Alliance City for 10 years no matter what, and he had to protect this secret to the best of his abilities.

This means that even if he gets a chance, he can't escape the Sect Alliance City for ten years, which means he'll be doomed the moment this place is discovered!

"Shh…"

Right at this moment, when Kai was about to succumb to his fate, a sharp hum suddenly rang in the chamber, and both Lonnie and Kai instantly looked toward the source of this voice.

They were both astounded and shocked when they saw this hum was coming from none other than the static altar!

For some reason, the runes on the altars started to light up, and an imposing aura suddenly released like a tidal wave enveloping the entire chamber. A golden light suddenly started to bloom from the center.

"What the hell is this?" Lonnie was shocked beyond belief as his eyes were affixed on the brilliantly glowing altar. He thought that it was just some ancient antique that was completely useless now or that it was a place where the treasure was stored.

But now, the altar suddenly became active, and the aura coming from it was making his heart palpitate with agitation.

Kai was equally shocked as a sudden glimmer of hope rose in his heart. 'Could it be master? Is he coming back to help me?' His heart suddenly beat wildly with hope and ecstasy since he couldn't think of another reason for the altar to react this way.

"Is this your doing?" Lonnie glared at Kai, but seeing his shocked face, he quickly dismissed that idea since he knew if Kai had such a trump card, he wouldn't be forced into a corner without using it.

'Is this another hidden treasure?' Lonnie suddenly considered this possibility, and his eyes shimmered with greed. He thought his luck was simply too good today.

However, Kai didn't reply and merely scoffed secretly, 'If it's my master, then you're dead!' At this moment, a powerful shock wave suddenly released from the altar, sending huge tremors through the entire mines. It was far more powerful than what Ace had caused, but the chamber still endured it without crumbling. Kai and Lonnie were sent flying and crashed into the wall!

Kai directly hurled blood, and his complexion was paled while a stream of blood also trickled down from the corner of Lonnie's lips.

At this moment, the blinding golden light started to fade away, and three silhouettes appeared on top of the altar. Lonnie's expression finally changed because it wasn't what he was expecting. They didn't seem like a peerless treasure to him, and even Kai was startled.

When the light was gone, three figures were revealed. One of them appeared like a beggar, with his face hidden behind his dreadlocks, and he had a bear's chest.

The other two, however, were completely different. One was a tall, handsome man in white robes with a slim frame. His appearance could be described as otherworldly. His eyes were golden, giving off a sharp and heroic air, while his long golden hair, like fibers of gold, was draped on his wide shoulders. There was a golden symbol on his forehead, which seemed like a justice scale. The last person was a dainty woman in a white gown and a white mask hiding her face. Her hourglass figure was extremely seductive and perfect, and her ocean-blue eyes were impassive and aloof. Her long black hair was arranged in a high bun, and a strap of hair was dropped on the left side of her mask.

The beggar seemed completely indifferent to the flabbergasted Kai and Lonnie's presence, coldly stating in a language that Kai and Lonnie couldn't understand.

"Heaven's Stealer should've ascended in this place around a year ago. Now that I've safely led you here, your life mission will start, and I won't be there to help you. Remember, only by completing this mission can you enjoy your life freely. Failure means death. I bid you good luck!" he declared, and the next moment, his figure vanished into thin air like a ghost, as if he had never been there before.

The handsome man's expression turned stern, and he solemnly nodded before he looked towards the impassive woman. A hint of pain flashed past his eyes. "How are you feeling, Emmie?"

The masked woman named Emmie glanced towards the man, and a hint of uncertainty flashed past her eyes. "I don't remember anything…" Her voice was melodious and also contained a longing for something.

"Don't worry; as I mentioned earlier, we are husband and wife, and you had a terrible accident that caused you to lose your memories; I'll explain everything to you and keep you safe as long as I live!" The man solemnly declared with a gentle tone, and his eyes were filled with love, but there was also hidden a vague guilt deep within.

Emmie didn't react to this much as if she had already heard this before, but the confusion in her eyes only grew stronger. Still, she nodded in acknowledgment without saying anything.

The man sighed, seeing her lack of reaction, and couldn't help but feel even more pain when he remembered her past cheerful and heroic self.

In the end, he decided to take it slow and finally looked towards Lonnie and Kai, who were pale with fright. They instantly shuddered the moment the man's golden eyes locked on them; they felt as if their souls had been exposed to him. Lonnie's heart was beating with trepidation. He could sense that these people who were taking in gibberish were not to be messing with, and he had no idea why things were suddenly turning into this mess when he was just a hair away from getting what he wanted.

At this moment, the golden symbol of justice scale on the man's glabella suddenly shimmered, and he narrowed his eyes. He said coldly in a common tongue that Kai and Lonnie clearly understood.

"I sense injustice!"
