Chapter 2403: Thief



While Yue Yun and Hongyue discussed the situation, Yun Lintian met with Long Qingxuan and enjoyed a pleasant meal with her.

"There's been nothing going on lately. The Primordial God Tribe has simply disappeared," Long Qingxuan said.

"I see. That's strange." Yun Lintian frowned slightly. "You can't find any trace of them at all?"

"Unfortunately, no," Long Qingxuan shook her head. "Senior Yun Yi and Sister Meilan haven't found anything either. It's like they have vanished."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Yun Lintian nodded slowly. "That's fine. They are not a threat for now. I guess they will appear later when the battle with the outlaws begins."

"Let's go," he said, rising and heading toward Hongyue's room.

When he arrived, Hongyue was already fully recovered. The crystal on her arm had disappeared, which stunned Yun Lintian.

"Fortunately, you've recovered," Yun Lintian said. "How did you remove the crystal?"

Hongyue pretended to know nothing. "I don't know. After I recovered my energy, the crystal gradually disappeared on its own."

Yun Lintian furrowed his brow. Yue Yun had already returned to the training ground. Perhaps it had something to do with her. However, Yun Lintian had no intention of asking about it.

"You shouldn't have pushed yourself like that," Yun Lintian said seriously. "If it weren't for Rui Xian, you would be gone. Mumu would be in danger as well."

Hongyue raised her brow slightly and curled her lips. "Oh? Now you dare to talk to me like this, huh? Well, you've become stronger. You indeed have the right to speak... Ah, I miss the days when you were a pitiful weakling."

Yun Lintian was speechless.

"Let's go back," he said, changing the topic and walking out.

Mumu came over and jumped onto Hongyue's shoulder. She looked at Hongyue briefly and said, "He's right, though."

Hongyue stared at Yun Lintian's back with mixed emotions. Yue Yun's revelation had changed her feelings toward Yun Lintian. Honestly, she didn't know how to face him now. She wasn't Yue Hong, but it would be a lie to say she wasn't affected.

"I know," Hongyue said gently and followed Yun Lintian, returning to the Ancient Battlefield. After Yun Lintian's group left, Long Qingxuan suddenly received a message from Yun Yi. Her expression changed drastically, and she hurried to find her mother.

"What happened?" Long Xi asked, seeing her daughter's anxious expression.

"What are you trying to say?" Rui Xian frowned deeply. He couldn't understand the woman in front of him. She was even more mysterious than Yun Lintian.

"Your fate," Tantai Xue said gently, "is about to come to an end. Had you ignored her, you would have lived longer. What a pity. You could have become a powerful general in my army." She turned and flew away, leaving Rui Xian puzzled.

Yun Lintian, Nantian Fengyu, and Hongyue flew all the way toward the Central Region. It took them an entire week to arrive at a large city not far from the Central Region.

Inside the city, countless cultivators filled the streets. It was even more lively than any other city Yun Lintian had visited.

"Be careful," Hongyue said. "There are a lot of thieves here."

"Thieves?" Yun Lintian was surprised.

"Their skills are very strange. My resources were stolen twice here without me knowing," Hongyue said.

"Oh? I want to see what kind of thieves you're talking about." Yun Lintian chuckled. He suspected these thieves must be proficient in the spatial element. Otherwise, it would be difficult to steal from people without them noticing.

"Oh no! Where is my storage ring?" Suddenly, a young cultivator in front of Yun Lintian exclaimed anxiously. His storage ring had been stolen.

The other cultivators looked around briefly and ignored him. Clearly, they were used to such scenes.

Yun Lintian was surprised and activated the Eyes of Heaven. Soon, he discovered something strange: a creature made of energy slipping through the crowd like a ghost. Its speed was

incredible. Wherever it passed, it would reach out to steal people's items.

"Follow me," Yun Lintian said and quickly chased after the unknown creature.

The creature seemed to notice Yun Lintian's presence. It hurriedly shuttled through the crowd and turned into an alleyway before disappearing into a small building.

"What did you see?" Hongyue asked.

"A thief," Yun Lintian responded and headed straight for the building. He looked at the sign engraved with the words "Fortune Telling" hanging on the door with an interesting

expression.

Without thinking too much, he pushed the door open and walked in.
