The Robbery of the century

Cross opened his eyes on the flying boat and Long Chen said "What happened?" Cross smiled and said "I got a new disciple. She's a Pure blood Amazon." Long Chen was stunned and said "Really?" Cross had a proud face and said "Yup! Heh." Long Chen clicked his tongue and the boat came to the Purple Thunderclap Empire.

The flying boat sneakily slipped into the thunder barrier around the Empire. Cross looked down and got excited, his eyes sparkled and he started taking off his clothes. Long Chen was confused and Yu Qianxue blushed, this guy just got fully naked!

Cross put on a full black suit, he looked at Long Chen and smirked before jumping off the ship and blending into the void. Long Chen laughed and Yu Qianxue looked off the boat, Yu Qingxuan said "What?" Long Chen said with amusement "Didn't you hear about the robberies in the Imperial City?"

Yu Qingxuan nodded and said "Yeah, it's a real problem-" she choked back her words and slapped her forehead. Long Chen laughed and said "Maybe, I made a super thief by accident..."

Cross shuttled through the void and started robbing every household and business he saw. He slipped into the Longteng Company and pulled out a small leather pouch, he opened it to reveal a series of small knives and needles.

He snuck around and entered through several doors, stealing everything he saw, even taking the nails and floorboards. He quietly spread out a colorless gas, knocking out everyone inside before stealing everything from them.

He took the doors, windows, nails, floorboards, walls, leaving a barren area. His body was being accelerated with the Time element so really it looked like a deconstruction rather than a robbery. Cross moved like lightning, ransacking every building and house he saw, skipping the Huayan Trading Company.

As the ship moved through the Empire, the buildings under them were disappearing by the second with a black figure shuttling through them. Most of the normal people's houses weren't demolished but were barely standing as all the nails and floorboards were removed, the buildings were mere shells of what they once were.

Cross came to a fountain and removed the gold seal on top, stealing that too. He passed by the sects and even they weren't spared. Things were constantly being sorted into his Inner World, and buildings were being built by the second.

Cross was enlightened! The Inner World was a Thief's greatest treasure! Everything that went inside was enhanced and sorts or formed into buildings! The library was constantly taking in books and everything was running at 1000% capacity, working in tandem with Cross' Godly thieving skills!

Cross rushed through the city and even snuck into the palace. He merged close with the void and depended on Aurora to hide him from Divine Consciousnesses. Cross went through and stole literally everything the Purple Thunderclap Palace had. He even infiltrated the secret records library and cleaned them out.

He came to a special door and used his lockpicking kit to get inside. He was greeted by a giant Lightning pool and stele, his eyes lit up 'I'm fucking Rich!' he collected the entire thing into the Inner World, leaving an illusion behind as he left and returned everything to normal.

He stopped and looked back before taking the special doors and leaving a replica made of normal not special wood, casting an illusion that it was the same. Once again, the entire Palace was cleaned out, herbs, nails, floorboards, beds, windows, doors, mirrors, curtains, books, secret scriptures, treasures, everything was gone.

He even took the stones off the steps!

What a ruthless fellow! He knocked out some princes and princesses before stealing their storage rings, right off their fingers, emptying them out before putting the empty ring back. He even stole their clothes, leaving them naked.

He double checked the entire city, seeing he didn't forget anything, he flashed back to the deck of the ship, that was leaving the Empire towards another one.

Cross appeared on the deck of a new ship and Long Chen looked at him saying "You're too ruthless..." Cross took off his black mask and grinned "You think so?" he was wearing a black blindfold now. Long Chen laughed and said "I watched you dismantle the Longteng Company... You even took the nails!"

Cross grinned and said "Everything has value! Speaking of which..." he looked at the ship under his feet and Long Chen grinned "There's hundreds of thousands more." Cross' eyes glittered and Long Chen took out a smaller handheld version.

Cross grabbed it and looked at it greedily, he got the way to build one, how it worked and finally he dismantled it completely. Cross grinned and they arrived at the Blue Flame Empire, Cross drilled inside as Long Chen threw a World Exterminating Fire Lotus into the dead center of the city.

Cross accelerated himself to the max and Time started slowing down around him, he stole everything starting from the center and going around in a circle, getting bigger and bigger as the explosion was getting bigger in slow motion.

Everything was ransacked as Cross' aura of effect expanded, he even started stealing through the void, nobody was spared from the master Thief!

A while later (For Cross)

The lotus exploded everywhere and Cross already robbed the entire capital city and was currently in the Palace going wild as he found dozens of flame treasures and secret cultivating treasures along with flame techniques.

Needless to say, the Blue Flame Empire was cleaned out completely. Forget about if they lose the war against the Vermillion Bird Empire, even if they win they wouldn't recover! Cross had effectively cut off the life blood of both Empires. He even took the Spiritual Ground the Empire was on!

The Blue Monkey Empire was finished.

Cross appeared in the air and cut the head off an old man and stole his sword ring and clothes, letting a naked and headless corpse fall down from the sky. Cross chuckled and disappeared again, Long Chen had trapped a giant blue wolf divine beast spirit. Cross flashed around stealing from all the old men in the sky and killing them.

They couldn't even see Cross let alone fight back, he was like a ghost! Wherever he went, death came, it was unavoidable! Cross hummed happily, as treasures upon treasures were sorted and buildings were being created in the inner world, forming a massive city with the Sect at the back of it.

Cross flashed to Long Chen and the duo laughed evilly to the skies before shooting off to the other 6 Great empires that were against the Vermillion Empire. Needless to say, they were all picked clean just like fresh vegetables ready for harvesting.

A while later

The ship turned around to fly back to the Vermillion Bird Empire. Cross changed back and was smiling so bag it almost split his head in half! Cross was laughing crazily and doing a dance with Long Chen as they sang "We're rich~ Sure enough Robbery is a cinch~ Call me a Rich man because I roll in gold~ Come with me you'll never grow old~"

The princes and princesses of the Vermillion Bird Empire had black faces, but Yu Qingxuan was clapping along happily. Cross took off his blindfold and his Star-Ring pupils were revealed, he looked to the air and laughed wildly.

A gold light blasted out of them into the sky, exploding into words "Your father, the King of Thieves, strikes again! In all worlds, no Treasury is safe!" Cross drowned himself in alcohol and celebrated, he was just too happy, he completely cut the life from 8 Great Empires, forget about coming back from this loss, there was nothing left for them to use to do so! Even their storage rings had been robbed!

Their sacred grounds, their spiritual earth, the very cores of their empires was robbed with a smile!

Cross' wealth was incredible, it was uncountable! There were too many things! Even if you counted for 100s of years you wouldn't be able to get the value! A luxurious city was built around the Sect, Cross grinned like a fool, his dream was slowly coming together piece by piece.

Cross sat down and said "Come! Everyone gets Alcohol today! Hahaha!" he grabbed Yu Qianxue and forced wine down her throat, making her completely drunk. He wrapped his arm around her shoulder and laughed, he waved his gourd and a bunch of wine flew out from the gourd forming bubbles in the air.

Long Chen drank a bubble and licked his lips, his eyes lit up and he said "All of you drink the Wine, now!" Yu Qingxuan said "Long Chen..." Long Chen said quickly "You little fools! This is his precious wine! The benefits to your bodies is too much! Even I can't get this from him! It's made with special materials that will cleanse your entire being free of impurities!"

The group was stunned and quickly drank from the bubbles before running to the bathroom as black stuff came out from their pores. Cross was hammered at the moment and washed Yu Qianxue with a bubble of golden water before throwing the black water off the side of the ship.

A while later

Everybody came back with big grins and Cross was passed out on the deck with Yu Qianxue, sleeping with her limbs spread out and her head on Cross' chest, snoring and drooling. Her royal aura had completely disappeared.

Yu Qingxuan looked at the duo with a sly smile and Long Chen laughed. They flew to the Vermilion Bird Empire. Cross woke up and slapped Yu Qianxue's head, waking her up and instantly sobering her.

She jumped up and waved a sword shouting "Who's ready to die?!" Cross laughed and spanked her saying "Don't die, stupid girl." Yu Qianxue sneered and said "One day, you're going to regret spanking me." Cross sneered and said "This daddy doesn't regret anything!" as he stepped after Long Chen, shattering the void under him.

Yu Qianxue watched him go and snorted before jumping into the battlefield where Yu Xiaoyun was with the rest, excluding Long Chen and Yu Qingxuan.

Cross, Long Chen, and Yu Qingxuan appeared near Yu Qingxuan's mother, Jiang Huixin, who had blood at the corner of her lips. Long Chen and Cross both charged at the old men that had 3 flowers behind them.

(Three flowers means they connecting their Bones, Blood, and Roots together. When the three flowers become one their power increases. Basically it's a power-up. Don't worry too much about it, some people are string with it and some are weak with it.)

Cross unleashed his Void Battle Body and punched at an Old man with three flowers behind him, smashing him flying. Cross crouched in the air, touching the ground, looking like a wild animal. Long Chen stood next to him and smirked.

Jiang Huixin was stunned but smiled, Long Chen charged at Weng Tianyao's master, throwing a punch and Cross charged at another old man, there was only 3 and one went flying, slightly injured.

Cross dropped all weapons and used his fists, throwing punches at the old man, who protected himself with the three flowers. Cross punched constantly, drawing back as his other arms punched forward. His arms were casting afterimages as they shot through the sky on the old man with world shaking power.

Long Chen suddenly said "Fuck!" and rushed off, Cross started fighting all 3 old men, covering for Long Chen's rush. Cross summoned his weapons and started killing the old men with Jiang Huixin and Yu Qingxuan.

A while later

The 3 old men were dead and Cross ran through the void to where Long Chen was. He saw Long Chen ripping off Kuntu's wings again and laughed as he blocked the giant Kunpeng ancestor. Cross looked at the Kunpeng Ancestor and grinned as he said "When I want to sleep a pillow comes! HAHAHA! Long Chen, go to the gate..."

His expression turned vicious as he added "I'll handle the bird." Long Chen grinned and left Kuntu alone as Cross flashed to the Kunpeng ancestor's head. His 6 arms came together and Cross hammered his fist on top of the Kunpeng Ancestor's head, smashing him into the ground, shattering the void as he slammed into the earth, rumbling the entire Vermilion Empire.

Cross dived down and drew his fist back, shouting "Darkness swallows the Sun!" as he punched down with a pitch black Qi covered fist. The world flipped upside down as his fist connected with the Kunpeng Ancestor's claw.

The World trembled and the void started cracking, a black ripple expanded from the collision and blew everyone else away, turning the weaker people to ashes. Cross flew back and the Kunpeng ancestor shouted "Ignorant Junior! You'll die for humiliating my Kunpeng clan!"

Cross sneered "Come and fucking do it, pigeon." The Kunpeng Ancestor's eyes turned red and he roared to the sky, he flapped his massive wings and charged at Cross, who squinted and stood still. The Kunpeng ancestors sneered and just before they collided, Cross moved.

Cross took out his scythe and spun in the air, over the Kunpeng Ancestor's head, a giant black ring, spread out and cut the Kunpeng Ancestor's wings right off. Cross stood in the air and the Kunpeng ancestor froze in the air before falling to the ground muttering "Im-... Impossible..."

Cross took the wings and stored them away before flashing down towards the Kunpeng ancestor, he wanted that sweet Kunpeng Source essence! The thing that makes them fight against the heavens!

Cross grabbed onto the Kunpeng Ancestor's back and his teeth were suddenly covered in black Qi as he bit on the Kunpeng Ancestor's neck, drinking the Kunpeng blood as his body exploded into Golden flames.

the Kunpeng blood essence and source essence was absorbed into Cross' body and being refined into his Bones, Blood, Qi, Soul, Spirit, and Intent. His Bones, Blood, and Root started glowing brightly as they changed slightly.

The Dragon guy shouted "Stop! It won't work! You'll explode!" Cross ignored him and continued devouring, closing his eyes and thinking of his family. He opened his eyes and they were fierce and held endless determination!
