Chapter 1141 Lively Thief’s House!


    Three charming figures adorned in ck robes with hoods walked out of the three upied cultivation chambers; they were Noa, Freya, and Winter, who had just awakened from their strange state.


    However, the reason for their collective emergence wasn''t just their awakening; they all received the same notifications from the system.


    =====


    [Thief House upgrade mission has beenpleted!]


    [Thief House has been leveled up to Level-2!]


    [Your House Rank can be increased!]


    [Your House Shops has been updated!]


    [New Privilege...]


    […]


    [House Leader Chamber has been installed in the Thief''s House!]


    [Please Wee the House Leader!]


    =====


    The final two notifications were the reason they came out to find out what was going on before they went through the rewards they had received. Moreover, the three house members could clearly feel they had undergone huge changes after awakening from their suspended animation state.


    At this moment, the three women looked at each other before they noticed the huge changes in the interior of the thief''s house. Finally, they noticed an additional person standing at the edge of the vast hall.


    Their beautiful eyes were filled with amazement, and Noa was the first one to run over to the tall man d in dark robes and his face covered in a hood.


    To Noa''s surprise, with a single step, she was already in front of Ace; she was clearly not familiar with this speed.


    Ace was about to approach them when he noticed Noa''s movement. He was surprised to see that Noa had turned into a ck streak and appeared directly in front of them.


    In that split moment, Ace felt Noa''s aura, and his eyes widened in shock as he eximed, "You have achieved Law State?"


    He wasn''t the only one who experienced it. Noa was also bewildered, while Freya and Winter''s eyes winded in great surprise, and they also tried to use their skills.


    Just like Noa, they also noticed the huge power-ups, and Ace inhaled sharply, "You all through in Law State without going through the heavenly tribtion at all?" Ace was greatly rmed by this peculiarity because he wasn''t expecting all the house members to be able to break through in thew state with him. After all, he clearly remembered they were far from reaching the peak of the Law Comprehension Realm when he ascended.


    "System, what is going on? How did they break through at the same time without going through the Heavenly Tribtion?" Ace quickly questioned the system.


    "[It''s because of Thief House upgrade to level-2! It''s a reward that can help the House Members break through a single major realm. As for why they didn''t trigger Heavenly Tribtion upon their breakthrough, it''s because the Thief House Members have the privilege to bypass the Heavenly Tribtion as long as they break through within the Thief''s House. The House Members can also suppress the Heavenly Tribtion with House Points!]"


    Ace''s eyes widened as he instantly questioned, "Can I do the same now?"


    "[No, as the House Leader, you can''t avoid confrontation with the Heavenly Punishment. But you can avoid it depending on the house defense grade as long as you''re inside the Thief''s House and spend House Points!]"


    The system instantly crushed his hopes, and he felt indignant, but thest part still brought him some sce, and he could only suppress his envy.


    He congratted the house members and exined their great privileges, which would make anyone''s eyes green with envy. He wanted to make sure to alert them to what kind of privilege they had, which could help them avoid the greatest crisis in their cultivation path, the Heavenly Tribtion!


    The house members were naturally shocked and instantly ted, especially since they had witnessed Ace''s Heavenly Punishment and knew what kind of deadly encounter it was!


    Afterward, Ace took the main throne of the thief''s house, and the other members sat in their positions around him. They had many questions, especially about the new thief''s house, and Ace exined without hiding anything about the changes brought by the House Leader Chamber.


    When they heard the thief''s house would be physically manifested whenever Ace used the House Leader Chamber, they were surprised and also somewhat worried. This meant that they had to be very careful not to expose this ce to anyone.


    Ace also gave them the Star Slips containing his little experience and information about the Mortal Ascension Heaven that he had gathered so they wouldn''t be ignorant about it like he was. After they refined the Star Slips, they were all shocked and somewhat excited about the prospect of an entirely new Heaven!


    Although Ace had alerted them before, it was still quite a novel experience since they had already arrived in it.


    "You''ve worked hard, Leader. If not for you, I might''ve already been dead in the Demon Continent!" Noa suddenly deeply bowed towards Ace and gave him her heartfelt gratitude. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    Freya''s eyes also shimmered with deep emotions as she could rte to Noa''s words. She bowed and sincerely said, "Please ept my gratitude as well, Leader. I might still be after my revenge if you haven''t shown me the way and met with a tragedy!"


    Winter hesitated for a moment before she lowered her head: "T-thank you for…for everything!" Still, she didn''t forget to add a ''Winter twist'': "But don''t think that you can order me around for free now that I thanked you!"


    Ace was surprised by their sudden act of gratitude and didn''t mind Winter''s entric words. He quickly waved his hand, "There''s no need to lower your head before me. You were able to reach this point with your own merits and hard work. I only tricked you into this, and if anyone should say thanks, it should be me. You all helped me to the best of your abilities despite the unfair restraints on you, and I''m very thankful for your understanding and the sacrifices you made."


    Ace sighed with nostalgia. He clearly remembered his encounter with thedies, and they had reallye a long way since then.


    Furthermore, Ace also decided as his eyes went sharp, "Please sit down, I have another grave matter to tell you all about that I''ve been avoiding all this time. It''s about the origin of Thief House and also the reason I''ve embarked on the path of a Thief. Because the enemy is no longer passive and may have sent its executioner after us."


    The house members were startled when they suddenly sensed the grave atmosphere around Ace and wondered what enemy Ace was talking about.


    Ace didn''t directly exin. He looked towards the empty seats around the table and said, "But first, I think we should fill these empty seats as well since I also owe them an exnation. They can then decide if they want to join the Thief House after knowing what is at stake!"
