Thievish Plan

The central area of fox mountain, 

Ace was escorted by another soul realm fox to this dark prison, where he saw small cages and all the other demons and earthen trolls behind separate cages. 

He was also locked separately, but the others were still unconscious because of the ice, and he could also sense these cages were special and there wasn't any Qi inside, or he can't circulate his earthen Qi as well.

Which made him even more curious about what the fox ancestor got in that ruin to make all this. 

After locking him up, the fox left and eerily silent arose in the prison. 

However, Ace wasn't bothered by it since he was completely fine and if he wanted these cages won't be able to stop him, but he was afraid Winter would be watching, so he remained static. 

Out of habit, he opened the fate map to check where he was, and he was astonished when he saw the silver fate map has turned gray again!
