Chapter 144: 145: Who are YOU?

Niko felt his soul shake after Skyler released her soul aura on him and vomit a puddle of blood. 

His face was ghastly pale as he smiled bitterly, "So, that was indeed the case, huh. That woman might've come back in secret to see you and you removed that veil in front of her, didn't you?" He weakly asked.

"Yes, she came back to see her children, and I removed my veil that father put on me so no can find out by my talent in the soul." Skyler impassively said. 

"Hehe, let me guess; then she taught you that soul cultivation technique which you are currently practicing and promise you she'll take you away once you…" 

Before Niko could say another word, his eyes rolled upward, and he loses consciousness.

"Don't worry, I only knocked him out, he's spouting too much nonsense." Olivia twiddle with her long hair as she nonchalantly said. 

Skyler didn't speak and deeply looked at unconscious Niko on the ground. 

"Let's go, we have a long journey ahead of us." Olivia impatiently speaks. 

"Yes." Skyler nodded, "Let's go, Victor, we're going to see our mother, she'll tell you everything herself because she's still alive!" She looked at her real blood brother and when she did, a look of bewilderment flashed past her face.

Because Victor was too calm and didn't even show a hint of emotion on his face as if he wasn't shocked at all hearing about this news. 

Ace impassively looked at everyone and then Skyler's fairy-like face and sighed deeply as he said, "Don't you find it strange when she came to meet you she didn't visit me if she was there for just her children?" 

Skyler narrowed her eyes because Victor is acting strange. No! extremely strange!

"What kind of question is this little Victor don't doubt your mother intentions? She was in a hurry so she could only see your sister that time and trust me, she was very regretful about it." Olivia tries to justify on behalf of her friend with a pained expression. 

'Her acting is top-notch.' Ace sneer in his heart but he didn't want to get involved with these two-face people too much. He just wanted to warn Skyler, since she cares about her siblings. 

Even an idiot would see Niko know something that Olivia or her friend didn't want Skyler to know and that's why she knock him cold and instantly demand to leave. 

The moment she came here, she never even looked at Victor. which means she was only here for Skyler and this also shows that the mother of Skyler didn't care about her other child with no soul talent whatsoever. 

Ace didn't know why that woman wanted Skyler now, but something was not right and Skyler just didn't want to see it. 

Maybe Patrick also has his selfish reason for hiding Skyler's talent in soul and now sending her into this deadly battle or for other reason to the capital, Ace didn't know and didn't want to know either. 

"Who are you?!" Skyler's eyes were icy as she looked at Victor's calm stature. She knew her brother too well and he would never question her. 

Especially when it came to their mother. He always wanted to meet her, and she once promised him she would take him to her one day. But now he was questioning her in such a manner, how could she not notice it? 

Everyone was surprised by this sudden development, even Olivia. 

"Hehe, just a passer-by." Victor chortled at this moment as he swept his hand past his face and Javier appeared in his arrogant smile! 

Everyone was flabbergasted by this, and Aden's face was as if his soul had fled his body

"I-its you!" Aden screams in horror. How could he forget the reason for his fleeing the city? It was exactly because of this young man!

Skyler also remembered this guy clearly. She would never forget that feeling and humiliation he bought upon Victor. 

"Where is Victor!!? What did you do to him." Skyler quickly snap out of her dazzle as killing intent replaced the surprise in her eyes. 

Olivia also recover from her shock as she said grimly, "Who are you?" She could tell this guy's cultivation was only at the third gate, however, his arrogant yet calm smile didn't match his meager strength. 

"Don't engage with him, his cultivation is not what we're seeing." The Beast Master spoke grimly at this moment, who was silent from the start. 

"We don't want any trouble. Just tell the girl what you did with the boy and we'll be on our way." He spoke without any arrogance or respect.

"Finally, a fellow with some brain." Javier chuckled coldly as he deeply looked at the Beast Master. This guy was very sharp despite his looks.

"Victor is fine. I just borrowed his face for one day. Your father should already find him this time around." Javier shifted his attention to Skyler, who was in no mood to talk and ready to pounce on him like a lioness if he speaks any more nonsense. 

"How can I believe you?" Skyler still didn't back down.

"Hehe, that's the thing, you see…" Javier mysteriously smile and said, "You can't! But what can you do?" 

"Skyler, don't attack him!" Olivia wasn't a fool, and she knew this guy was difficult to deal with and Skyler was standing just two feet away from him.

However, Skyler didn't heed Olivia's grave warning and use a soul attack. 

"Until we meet again." Javier mysteriously smiled as he become an afterimage before vanishing completely! 

Skyler was stunned seeing this scoundrel elude her soul attack like it was nothing and Olivia's eyes contracted as well as the Beast Master's. 

They all know the terror of soul attacks and that guy not only evade it he was now gone! 

Olivia also didn't find any soul waves, nor did the Beast Tamer find any qi waves. 

Both of them didn't have either soul sense or martial sense. Even if they want to, they can't see through Ace's breathless stealth or they can match his lightning steps. 

But the skill Ace used to evade Skyler's soul attack was camouflage steps, which he was very close to achieving low-level mastery in it. 

After he successfully evaded the attack, he simply uses his stealth technique and escapes with lightning steps.

As for killing Skyler, he didn't want a blood feud with some powerful soul cultivator who can send someone like Olivia from the pill flame organization here. 

And he didn't have complete confidence to kill everyone here, especially when Soul River and Qi River Depth cultivators were present. 

So escaping was the only option. He just acts very mysteriously to make everyone dreadful after changing his face. 

He knew the moment he turns into Javier, his cultivation would go down, but it gives him the perfect chance to sow fear in everyone's heart and manage to escape without a hitch after showing off his abilities a little.

Skyler was just a puppet who was acting according to his will in all this, and he knew Victor was the thing that can make her attack him.

No one dare to think of chasing him after, seeing him evading a soul attack like it was nothing and he even managed to reap a bountiful harvest of TP.

Or he could've just escaped from the start. No one here can stop him if he does, but all this act he did was for TP! 

He would never let this chance to make a huge amount of TP get by, especially if there was a rune crafter of Pill Flame Organization present in front of him. He knew how rich these people were by Vance's example. 

No one notice him, not even Olivia, since her cultivation was equal to his soul cultivation, and she was in the state of shock as everyone else.

As for what Ace said about Victor being alive, he was telling the truth! 

In the end, Ace didn't bring himself to kill that boy because he wasn't a scum like Javier and more importantly, he wasn't a killer! 

He spared him just thinking that if he started killing people for his interest, there will be no difference between him and these people who he loath. 

Although he will steal from anyone and everyone for his interest and benefits, talking about a life without a good reason, just didn't fit with his nature. 

Especially when the person was Victor, who just wanted to protect his sister and prove himself to his father. 

That's also why Ace warn Skyler and then did what he had to steal those storage rings.

As for whether she caught his message, it wasn't his concern anymore since he had other important things to do.

Ace thought this would be his last encounter with Skyler and Olivia, but he was wrong about that. He will meet them in near future and under different circumstances!
