Chapter 1102 Coming Clean
?Alina was astounded when she heard how much time had passed since she started the process of bloodline sweep, and Ace had already ascended to the next heaven. đŁđđŽđđŹđđ.đ đŹđȘ
Ace patiently summarized all the details while omitting useless ones until he reached the point of his current situation. Eva also remained silent and let him explain without obstructing him.
After Ace was done, Alina had a pretty good idea about their current situation, and she took a deep breath and muttered with a hint of sadness, âSo we are no longer in Mortal Sky Heaven? The Blood Ancestor is also dead, and I wonât be able to meet my parents now, huh? Pity, I want to introduce you to them at least onceâŠâ
Although she didnât have the best relationship with her parents, she didnât hate them. She knew what they did was for survival and was forced to do it because of the Blood Ancestor.
She even wanted to avenge her grievance by killing the Blood Ancestor personally, but Ace had already beaten her to it, which means her parents and clan didnât need to hide anymore.
But now that she was no longer in Mortal Sky Heaven, she knew going back would be impossible. However, as long as she was with Ace, she accepted it since she had already decided to be with him forever.
However, Ace revealed something at this moment with a heavy heart. He didnât even tell Eva about it because he didnât want to worry her.
âThe Golden Sky World is no more.â
Evaâs and especially Alinaâs eyes widened when they heard this unexpected and vague sentence.
âWhat do you mean no more?â Alina asked as she had a very bad feeling.
âAt that time when I released the world sealâŠâ Ace decided to come clean as he knew it was his fault for what happened back then.
Eva was flabbergasted when she heard about the âCurse of Destructionâ while Alina directly started to emit dense killing intent because this meant her parents and clan were no longer alive!
âIt was all my fault. But that thing was simply too powerful, so powerful that an entire world was nothing but sacrifice in its eyes.â Aceâs voice was filled with guilt and self-blame.
However, before Alina or Eva said anything, Ace revealed another thing, âBut Iâve saved everything I could, especially people close to you. Alina, your parents, and clan are completely fine, and they are in this living space ring that I got from the Devil Ancestor Edward.â
At this moment, a storage ring suddenly fell into Alinaâs hand out of nowhere, and Alina felt huge relief wash over her as she didnât know what she wouldâve done. She didnât want to blame Ace for it despite him being the reason for what happened back then, but she was sure she wouldâve gone after that Curse of Destruction.
Eva also sighed in relief when she saw Alinaâs chaotic emotions calm down. She was different from Alina because she didnât have anyone other than Ace who she cared about, so despite being shocked by the news, she didnât care, even if it was Aceâs fault.
But she knew Alina was different. If he hadnât saved Alinaâs clan, their relationship mightâve taken a huge blow, and she didnât want that since she knew how much he cared about Alina. Despite not liking Alina, she didnât hate her and even considered Alina her rival.
âThank you for saving them!â Alina spoke as she clenched the ring in her hand.
âHeh, you just doubted Ace for a moment, right?â Eva still decided to take a jab to feel good about it, but she sternly said to Ace, âYou shouldnât blame yourself for it. That thing shouldnât have been sealed in that place, to begin with. Itâs the fault of whoever created that seal to lock down something so terrible in the Mortal Sky Heaven because they didnât have the guts to handle it on their own!â
Alina nodded as she agreed with Eva despite not wanting to and coldly stated, âSheâs right; it wasnât your fault. That thing didnât belong in that place, so you canât blame yourself. You did what you could, and it wasnât like you had another choice. And I will never doubt him! Itâs just that I would have to find that thing myself and make sure heâll suffer for eternity for what it did!â
Ace didnât know what to say, but he still felt a little better after hearing they werenât blaming him. But he wasnât going to shun the responsibility away. He had long decided that if he had a chance, he would avenge the Golden Sky World!
âThank you for your understanding,â Ace said warmly. âOh, other than your Clan and Lillian, there are Thomas and Aliya in that ring as well. They are my people. Let them stay there for a while until we find some place for them in this place, and Iâll meet your parents as well with you. I havenât interacted with them because I was waiting for you and had Lillian take care of everything.
âThis ring is yours now, but I think you should refrain from entering it since it might not be able to handle your presence, just to be on the safe side. Since you have also successfully swept the bloodline, I should hand you over the inheritance that I got with this bloodline.â
Alinaâs eyes shone with anticipation when she heard it. She also completely forgot about her sadness or that hatred she had just felt because now she no longer had any attachment to the Mortal Sky Heaven. She also blushed slightly when she heard Ace would meet her parents with her, just like a girl in love.
At this moment, in front of her, a black jade scroll, and a black crystal sword with shimmering stars on its extremely thin translucent blade appeared in front of her.
âThis jade scroll is a cultivation technique called the Sun and Moon Sword Sutra, and it is sealed. Only you with your bloodline can access it. This sword is called the Calamity Star Sword, and like this scroll, only someone with your bloodline can tame and use it. I donât know its actual grade, but it has to be extremely powerful.
âThere was also a token, but it was rigid, and there was a hidden soul in it. If you touched it, that soul might take over your body. So, Iâm going to keep it hidden until I take care of that sneaky bastard!â Ace said, and towards the end, his voice was icy cold as he still remembered that Bloodline Bound Token fa?ade.
If he didnât have the system, he wouldâve been tricked and killed Alina with his own hands.
Alinaâs eyes widened when she saw the sword. Despite seeing it for the first time, she felt a strange attraction to it, and she was also shocked when she heard the part about that token.
Eva, on the other hand, grimly looked at the sword because she just heard Flaggyâs voice in her head.
âThat sword is just like me!â
