"Young friend George, or should I call you Alan? Do you want to join our King Sect?"
The Deputy Guardian's words shocked everyone because no one had expected that he would issue such an invitation to George after using a soul search on him. Furthermore, the invitation wasn't for the 'bank' but for the 'King Sect', to whom the bank belonged!
One had to know that despite knowing that the Pri Heavenly Bank was a King Sect- affiliated organization, no one actually knew anything about this King Sect, at least in the domains of Sect Grand Sects like the AIG Sect.
Even if soone is lucky enough to capture a bank mber's eyes, they can only beco part of the bank branches, not the actual sect behind them. The only personnel of the king sect in the bank were the Bank Managers, Vault Guards, and Vault Wardens!
The bank staff were made up of cultivators of various domains who were lucky enough to be selected. Even after being selected, they had to go through a very strict process and training before they could start their duties and receive recourses from the bank.
That's why everyone was shocked when the Deputy Guardian directly invited George into the sect.
But when they looked at George, who had sohow survived the soul search of a Quasi Ascension Lord, and he was still conscious, they all knew there was sothing special about George.
Especially the AIG Sect's mbers, they had also guessed that George was hiding his identity, and for whatever reason, he was doing it; it had sothing to do with his background and unusual talent.
Now that the Deputy Guardian had used Soul Search on him, he naturally knew his secrets. Although it beca apparent that George was not associated with the Sky Stealer or the theft, now that his secret and talent were revealed, the Deputy Guardian won't miss this chance to poach this terrifying talent with an unknown blood.
After all, if the Deputy Guardian could bring George back to the main sect, he knew that he'd be rewarded for finding such a talent. A King Sect was always like this; they wouldn't miss any talent, and that was one of the reasons for their unshakeable positions.
"What do you think you're doing by poaching my sect talent in my presence?" Guardian Spirit's grim voice rang at this mont, and its words also reflected Vincent's thoughts.
The Deputy Guard impassively asked, "Do you think you can protect him? Furthermore, you have neither the resources nor the knowledge about how to nurture him. If he stays here, he'll waste away his talent just like he had been doing while squandering around in a first-grade sect before.
"Only a King Sect can properly raise soone of his caliber. If you really care about him, like he did for you guys, I suggest you let him join us. This is his fortune; don't restrain him.
"Besides, I've already promised him that if he was innocent and survived this, I'll compensate him. So, I'm giving him a chance to join the king sect that no one in millions of miles around this area is qualified to have, yet they'll do anything to acquire it. I don't know why you are so against it when you should be happy about and honored about it. And lastly, I think you should let him decide since it's his choice."
The Deputy Guardian's words were extrely overbearing and arrogant, but he still struck a chord. There was no falsehood in his words, only painful facts and reality.
Vincent was tongue-tied, his heart filled with indignation yet bitterness. Glancing at Alan, who seed to be also in shock, he sighed ruefully, "You are free to decide what you want to do. You'll have my full support. If you want to go, then just go, but rember, the AIG Sect will always be your ho, and you can co back any ti you want if you feel lonely."
Ace, in the inner world of his avatar, was really astounded when he heard the Deputy Guardian's invitation. It was a completely unexpected turn of events. He didn't expect that just showing this mysterious bloodline and talent would grant him a passage to a king sect, and this king sect was proclaid to be the wealthiest sect of the Mortal Ascension Heaven.
But Vincent's words also moved him. He could feel his frustration and helplessness, yet he was quite willing to accept the reality. Besides, he knew Vincent also felt guilty about throwing him to the fire pit despite his inner struggles, and all he did was for the sect.
Still, he can't be emotional because the AIG Sect was just a stop in his long journey; he didn't have the luxury to stop because if he did and wavered, he knew only death awaited him.
The presence of Heaven's Advocate was proof of it, and he knew that guy would soon look for him after he found out about this theft, so he was already planning to move on in due ti while causing trouble for him.
Still, it wasn't ti for him to leave the AIG Sect yet, so he thought montarily before finally deciding on his next course of action.
He controlled his avatar and looked weakly at the Deputy Guardian before he said, "I can agree to join your sect, but I have three conditions, or forgive for not knowing how to acknowledge your kindness."
"This brat...' Vincent closed his eyes and sighed again bitterly.
Ace accepting this offer was within Vincent's expectation after the AIG Sect had done nothing for him; instead, they mistreated him, even though he was planning to use him for his own benefit.
Just Ace coming forward and putting himself in danger for the AIG Sect was already a huge favor, and he owed nothing to the sect.
A hint of joy flashed past Deputy Guardian's eyes when he heard Ace was willing to accept his offer. Truth be told, he wasn't optimistic about it since he had just used a soul search on him, and if anything, Ace should hold a deep grudge against him.
But it seed that this young man could see the bigger picture and didn't dwell on small things. Besides, now that Deputy Guardian knew about Alan's secret, he probably already guessed that the bank might not let him rest in peace, so getting sothing out of it while he could be the best outco for everyone.
"Speak, as long as it's not too excessive. I'll do my best to complete them," The Deputy Guardian said emotionlessly.
Ace's lips curled up within the inner world before he quickly stated his demands, "Alright. My first condition is very simple: I want to stay in the AIG Sect and continue to learn to forge for five years. After five years, I'll leave with you. But in the anti, I don't want to be disturbed and continue my cultivation in peace.
"My second condition is that I want 10 kg of Soul Gold, 1 Lighting Wyrm Beast Core, and finally, a Ti Space Segnt.
"My last condition is that the bank will give my teacher, Sect Master Vincent, full cultivation technique of Ascension Lord Realm!"
