Chapter 321: 320

The night of occurrence finally passed in the Iron Demon City and the world welcome new dawn, but for the Iron Demon City, it was destined to be an unforgettable day.

Right now, almost the entire city knows about the last night’s fight. However, this didn’t hinder the city market, which was the central hub of the Iron Demon City’s economy and prestige.

The merchants didn’t care about fights between cultivators as long as they didn’t hinder or involved them, they just wanted to make money and earn a reputation.

‘Sigh… it seemed like the Iron Demon City is no longer like the past. Even a slave dared to be brazened here now.’

A wizened face demon was deep in thought at this moment while sitting in a large luxurious carriage pulled by two demonic beasts which were moving toward the Iron Demon City’s market.

‘If Duke Livy is as assertive as the rumor said, he’ll probably replace the Iron Demon Tribe by silently giving the order to open challenge them. I should evacuate my shop and family from the iron demon city, just in case the challenge really happened. The city will be turned into a battlefield.

‘Beside… it’s time for me to move on to a duke-level city and expand my business. I have already secured the required amount of Qi stones to buy an extensive property and my reputation has also reached the threshold for me to open a shop in a duke level city…’

This wizened face demon was a well-known merchant and quite famous for his premium quality goods in Iron Demon City Market and quite respected in the merchant circle in the ocean demon dukedom.

On the mighty demon continent, merchants can’t open a shop on a whim, just anywhere. One, you have to be rich, and second, you have to be highly respectable and popular.

Only then can one open a shop in high noble rank cities like Iron Demon City, and it was even more difficult to enter a demon duke rank city’s market. Because one could earn a hundred times more profit in a duke city’s market compared to a marquess level city market.

Not to talk about the businesses in a king domain.

Nevertheless, this wizened demon was already planning on leaving the Iron Demon City and moving to the Ocean Demon City and after the event of the mad thief and last night, he finally decided to collect everything he accommodated for all these years from the secret treasury in his shop and leave this place.

Not just this wizened demon thought like this, but almost all the respectable and high-status merchants were considering the same point after the last night’s event.

These merchants weren’t born or the kin of Iron Demon Tribe, and they were only businessmen, which only followed profit, and Iron Demon City was losing its credibility in their belief.

The carriage finally stopped outside a huge building. The wizened demon disembarks the carriage, still musing as he plodded toward the entrance, followed by two powerful personal demon guards.

However, he suddenly frowned because he didn’t see the shop guards anywhere and snorted coldly, “It seemed the Iron Demon Tribesmen really didn’t care about the city economy anymore. You two, if they come back, broke their legs and throw them out.”

Those two demon guards merely nodded in affirmation. They were with this wizened demon for over twenty years now, and they knew his temperament, and they knew he hated inaction and unprofessionalism when it came to business.

“T-this… how is this possible?!!!”

The wizened face demon was about it unlocked the door when he heard an anguished, shrill howl from the next building. He was quite familiar with this voice. He quickly turned around the headed toward the next shop to see what has happened.

Just as he entered the shop, it was totally different from what he remembered because all the illustrated treasures were completely gone from their showcases.

‘Is Edwin also trying to evacuate to another city?’ He thought with uncertainty, but when he thought about the scream just now, he knew something was not right and quickly goes toward the open door behind the glass counter.

They finally reach an underground room and were flabbergasted when they saw a demon with silver hair listlessly kneeling right before an open vault. There were four corpses of demons that were beheaded not long ago.

However, the wizened demon’s focus was right inside the completely empty vault, and his eyes were fixed on a three-meter dark owl mural and its blade-like wings, there were two eye-catching words imposingly written on the owl wings in demon language.

“Sky Stealer?” He mumbled.

Edwin seemed to sense his friend and business rival’s presence and started to laugh like a maniac, “Hahaha… Old codger, my life wealth, treasures, everything is gone… hahaha… stolen… hahaha.”

The wizened demon’s heart palpitated, not because of his friend’s loony laughter, but when he remembered two missing guards. Without even replying, he used his full power to run toward his own shop.

Those two demon guards also followed behind with grave expressions. They also felt something was amiss.

“Who is Sky Stealer…?!!!!”

At this moment, they heard another roar right from the other side of the street. It was a high-end wine shop!

The wizened demon heart nearly jumped out of his chest when he heard again a familiar voice, which was chanting the tone was his friend!

He didn’t even use the key and break inside his own shop as the alarming array started to cause a huge commotion, but the demon wasn’t even heard it when his old face showed myriad emotions between uncertainty, shock, fascination… his entire interior was completely empty not a single displayed treasure was on their place!

He quickly goes toward the upper floor while trembling with fear and when he broke the door of the second floor as well it was also empty!

“No, no, no, it was just an illusion!” He crazily started to mumble as he moved toward the third floor.

Yet, nothing changed. Every floor was made clear of any valuable items and when he reached the last floor, where his life’s wealth was hidden. He saw the hidden treasure vault was completely opened, and the same owl mural was printed on the center wall and the same name, Sky Stealer.

His entire body was staggered suddenly when he finally vomited a large amount of blood!

“Mister!”

Both guards quickly support him, but their faces were also filled with incredulity as they saw the entire shop was robbed clean and the thief was so lethal that he didn’t even trigger any trap or alarm and even open the middle grade one treasury!

Their eyes were filled with trepidation when they looked at that owl imprint, and they felt a chill run down their spines and the name Sky Stealer was deeply engraved in their heart!

The wizened demon said at this moment in an extremely hoarse yet cadaverous voice, “Take me to city lord manor!”

Those two looked at each other before quickly complying. They didn’t know what their master was thinking, but they knew something unimaginable was going to happen in Iron Demon City!

—

Soon, not just this wizened demon, but almost every famous and esteemed character of Iron Demon City Market, started to head toward Golden Iron Demon Territory with sharp killing intentions.

First, everyone paid little attention to this movement, but as those carriages filled with murderous auras pass them, everyone broke into a cold sweat, and they knew something had happened.

It didn’t take long before some low-end shop owner finds out all the big shops in the market were robbed clean, and this news started to spread like wildfire and quickly burn down the entire city!

What gave everyone horror was this was doing of a new thief who leave behind an owl imprint on some shops and in some imprints, he even dared to arrogantly leave behind his name!

The name ‘Sky Stealer’ quickly become known in the Iron Demon City and everyone thought the Mad Thief was just a toddler compared to this Sky Stealer!

Although he didn’t kill anyone, he robbed everyone with high status in one night, and they even forget about the fight that happened last night.

The entire iron demon tribe was thrown into disarray, especially the three founding clans because they knew this blunder wasn’t even close to the mad thief event.

It was now completely out of their hands. They can’t even subdue the enraged victims outside their territories. Everyone was demanding full compensation, or it was going to be a bloodbath!

But what could poor Iron Demon Tribe do? Since their own shops were raided as well, they suffer huge losses!

Everyone in Iron Demon Tribe knows it was the end, and they were right about it when, in the afternoon, a Demon Duke Decree came directly from the Ocean Demon City!
