Chapter 43: The Arrogant Thief

Chapter 43-The Arrogant Thief

After the surprise.

Shui Bing'er quickly took out a pen and a piece of paper and drew the footprints on the ground according to the actual size.

She drew the patterns on the soles of the footprints very carefully.

After finishing the drawing, Shui Bing'er compared the shoes on her feet with the footprints.

Just as Bing Lao said, the footprint was a little smaller than his own shoes.

Next.

Shui Bing'er never found any other clues.

At last.

With doubts in her heart, she left Liehuo Village with the Shui family.

…

Inside Tiandou City.

A teenage girl was walking on the street.

The girl has a beautiful and delicate face with a pair of big brown eyes with long eyelashes.

She has short hair, a tall figure, and a neat outfit that tightly wraps her growing body.

"Grandpa's birthday is coming soon. What kind of gift should I buy for him? This is the first time I go out alone to buy something expensive, so I must choose carefully."

As she spoke, the girl kept shaking the purse in her hand as she walked.

The sound of gold soul coins colliding continued to come out of the purse.

What the girl didn't know was that not far behind her.

A dark figure was staring at her.

The figure followed her quietly, and had already followed her for a whole street.

He was a man, not very tall, less than 1.7 meters.

He was dressed in black and had a black cloak on his body.

The small nose, small eyes and small mouth are almost grown together, and the appearance looks extremely cunning and wretched.

After hearing the sound of the girl's purse, the man in black's eyes lit up instantly.

He seemed unable to bear the temptation of the gold soul coin any longer and put the hood of his cloak on his head.

The hat instantly covered most of his face.

The next moment.

The man in black rushed out like an arrow.

When the girl was not paying attention, the man in black reached out and snatched the girl's purse, then fled forward quickly.

The girl seemed to have never encountered such a situation before.

She was stunned for a moment.

The man in black seemed to sense that the girl was not chasing him.

He actually stopped provocatively and stood there without running.

Then, the man in black made an extremely provocative gesture towards the girl.

When the girl saw this, her face turned red with anger.

She couldn't help but yelled angrily, "How dare you steal my things, Meng Yiran?"

The girl was none other than Meng Yiran, the granddaughter of the Gaishi Dragon and Snake couple.

All I saw was a flash of light.

A somewhat simple flying knife appeared in Meng Yiran's hand.

The handle of the flying knife is about three inches long and the blade is about five inches long. A red ribbon is wrapped around the handle and the blade is shining with a faint light.

"Today, I will let you have a taste of my soul-breaking sword!"

As she spoke, Meng Yiran raised her little hand and a cold light flew out instantly.

Her movements were clean and neat, and the Soul-Breaking Sword went straight towards the man in black.

The man in black was not panicked, and a yellow light suddenly lit up on his body.

His body flashed suddenly and he easily dodged Meng Yiran's flying knife.

"Haha, I can give it back to you! My little beauty, as long as you can catch me, I will give it back to you."

After saying that, the man in black suddenly ran forward at an incredibly fast speed.

Seeing that the man in black was about to run away, Meng Yiran stamped her feet anxiously.

Next second.

She chased after him without hesitation.

But.

Obviously her speed was much slower than that of the man in black.

Seeing that the distance between Meng Yiran and the man in black was getting farther and farther, she hurriedly shouted: "Catch the thief... Catch the thief quickly..."

The man in black heard Meng Yiran's shouting, but instead of being panicked, he said smugly: "Go ahead and shout! The more you shout, the more interesting it will be."

Because this place is not far from the Tiandou City Gate.

Meng Yiran's shouting soon attracted the city defense guards.

Nearly a hundred soldiers, led by a captain of the guards, rushed over.

They directly blocked the way of the man in black.

But.

The man in black did not slow down, nor did he run away, but went straight towards the city defense guards.

With a "swish" sound.

The guards pointed their spears at the man in black.

These city defense guards were all wearing fine iron armor, holding spears, and in strict military discipline. They stood like a steel wall, blocking the men in black.

Following the captain's order.

"Kill!"

A uniform roar rang out.

Nearly a hundred city defense guards rushed towards the men in black in neat steps.

In front of the powerful city defense guards, the men in black not only did not panic at all, but advanced even faster.

Next second.

The men in black met the city defense guards.

Just see.

He waved his arms.

"Bang! Bang!"

Two sounds were heard.

The two soldiers were knocked away by him.

Then.

The man in black did not slow down at all, but passed through the city defense guards like a loach.

Not a single soldier could attack him.

Right at this moment.

Just then a gust of wind passed by and the black-clad man's hat was blown up.

The captain of the city defense guards happened to see his profile.

"How could it be him?"

The captain of the city defense guards exclaimed at the figure of the man in black.

Immediately following.

He looked helpless.

"Everyone, chase!"

Seeing the man in black running farther and farther away, the captain hurriedly gave orders.

His soldiers chased after him instantly.

There was only one recruit left, still standing beside him without moving.

The new soldier asked in surprise: "Captain, do you know that man in black?"

"Hey! You're new here, so you don't know. The man in black is a well-known thief in Tiandou City. He's also a well-known figure." The captain explained.

"Captain, if we can catch him, it will be a great achievement." The recruit said excitedly.

"We? Catch him? It's broad daylight, you'd better stop dreaming!"

Hearing his men's words, the captain said with some disdain.

His words surprised the recruits greatly.

He looked at the captain of the city defense guards in great confusion.

Seeing the recruit's ignorance, the captain began to explain to him.

"The nickname of the man in black is Shadowless Thief. He has committed countless crimes in Tiandou City over the years, but has never been caught.

The Shadowless Thief himself is an agile soul master, and the Imperial Palace Guards once organized a special soul master capture team to capture him.

But the Shadowless Thief escaped several times, and finally the Imperial Palace Guards had to give up on capturing him. Do you think we can catch him?"

The words of the city defense guard captain surprised the new recruit immensely.

It was obvious that his captain had basically given up on capturing the black-clad shadowless thief.

The Shadowless Thief is extremely fast.

Soon.

The city defense guards were left further and further behind by him.
