Chapter 964 New Face
"Where are you from?" asked Riana while she led Ace into the corridor filled with rooms. Although her tone was icy cold, a hint of curiosity was present in it.
Ace didn't know why this woman seemed interested in asking such a question, but he replied respectfully, "Leaf Kingdom, I was born and raised in a small village in the mountains."
Riana nodded as she didn't replace this any suspicious since most of the independent cultivators have poor backgrounds.
She questioned further, "How many days were you in the world boundary?"
"Eight days, maybe more. I don't remember since it's very hard to keep track of time in there," Ace replied without hesitation.
Riana stopped before a door and looked at Ace deeply before she said, "You were very lucky to escape with your life. So, I give you a piece of advice to not resist the interrogation because you have no one backing you up.
"They will use a special treasure to go through your memories just to make sure you are telling the truth. The matter of four world boundaries is very sensitive. As long as you cooperate, they won't harm you.
"Although I know going through your memories would reveal your secrets, if you resist, they won't take no for an answer. So, I'm warning you in advance for your own good."
Once she had done the warning, she left without waiting for Ace's reply.
Ace couldn't help but see the woman walking away, as she looked extremely lonely and sad at that moment. Shaking his head, he entered the room since it had nothing to do with him.
'A treasure that can scan memories? These guys are really resourceful and forceful. They don't want to take any chance, huh? It seemed the independent cultivators really have no authority at all.' Ace thought with a cold smile.
Although it was troublesome, he didn't have anything to worry about because he wasn't planning on lingering for long.
Closing his eyes, he spread his heavenly sense in the ship. Although this ship was protected with a grade-8 formation, in front of his terrifying thief sense it can't resist.
'Got you.' Smiling, he vanished from his room like a phantom.
In another section of the ship, this place was filled with luxurious rooms and this place was for the high-ranking officers and VIP guests.
In one of these rooms, Abner was respectfully kneeling in front of a blurry projection. He was really bold as he was told to go back to this post, but he ran in here. He didn't care about Riana's status at all.
"What's the report?" An imposing voice filled with authority rang.
Abner showed a rare hint of respect and reverence as he replied, "Replying to my lord, it seemed it was a false alarm. We found a foolish, independent cultivator who was seeking his own death in the world boundary. Once we return to headquarters and use the Soul Water Mirror, we'll replace what he experiences there, but I'm not too optimistic about it. It's not worth using such a treasure on that bumpkin."
"Curious." The person said, "There were no reports of anything touching the Western world boundary, but now someone has come out. There is something wrong here. Report me the result of Soul Water Mirror it is very important.
"It's been a long time since we've been searching for a way to cross that place, and we can't overlook anything. Now tell me about how's my dear fiancé doing?"
A hint of lust flashed past Abner's eyes, but his head was down, so it went unnoticed, and he quickly spat, "She still refuses to reveal her fantastic physique and keeps her progress to herself. We don't know how much she had awakened it. I'm afraid she's stalling deliberately."
"Hah, that stubborn lady will learn, will she? She can't escape her destiny no matter how much she stalls." He stated with full confidence and mockery, "Just keep an eye on her and make sure she won't do anything foolish. Soon, the Sky Abyss Secret Realm would open, and she had to come into the empire no matter what. I'll personally make a move. Let's see if she continues to hide from her density."
"I'll do as you bid, my lord!" Abner kowtowed before the projection vanished in front of him, and he finally stood up and sneered with disdain, "What an idiot!"
All the reverence and respect were gone, and his true thoughts were revealed.
"Indeed, an idiot, he can't even tell a snake is hiding under his sleeve. So much for being the Imperial Crown Prince. I'm very disappointed." A jeering voice rang, making Abner jump in shock as he quickly turned around.
"Who?!" His eyes widened to the fullest when he saw a hooded figure standing in the corner with his arm crossed. A chill went down his spine since he didn't even feel a tiny bit of presence from this mysterious person, and just how long had he been there?
"Alright, I've decided to take your identity." Ace's nonchalant voice sounded as if he was saying something insignificant, but his words caused Abner to step back as his Qi began to circulate at high speed.
But before he could do anything, Ace said a single world filled with mysterious laws, "Sleep!"
The moment Abner's eyes became as heavy as a mountain, that single command was like the command of the very laws. The next moment, he fell asleep before falling on his carpeted floor.
"Soul Words are really a marvel. Even an early-stage law awareness realm cultivator can't resist my command." Ace muttered emotionally. He felt all those pills and years of hard work were really worth it. His soul has now reached a terrifying level, so no one can resist soul words unless their soul is stronger than him, which was nigh impossible at this point.
Without further ado, Ace's face and body began to change, and the next moment, he had taken Abner's disguise. After robbing Abner of his armor and treasures, he pointed his finger at his forehead, and a black sword Qi shot into his head, destroying his soul, and then he stored his dead body.
There was no longer any Abner in this world!
A wily smile appeared on Ace's face as he muttered, "Time to get to work!"
