He clasped his hands behind his back, his eyes dark. "I will give you one chance. Whoever did this, step forward and I will let bygones be bygones."
What a joke!
Why would anyone step forward? With Nine-Headed Bird's viciousness, anyone who stepped forward would die.
After waiting for a while, no one admitted. Nine-Headed Bird said darkly, "Not going to step forward? Fine! All of you, open your spatial storage devices and let me inspect them! "
Hearing this, the guests became agitated.
"Why?" A mid-stage four-crown emperor with a goat head snorted angrily.
Interspatial storage devices were a martial artist's most private secrets. How could they let outsiders inspect them?
Bang —
Nine-Headed Bird answered him with a nomological technique.
Combined with the peak four-crown emperor's cultivation, the attack heavily injured the goat head. He lay on the ground, unable to move.
"Because I am stronger than you!" Nine-Headed Bird said coldly.
The guests were angry, but they did not dare to say anything. Compared to exposing their privacy, their safety was more important.
Therefore, after struggling for a while, many people gave up and prepared to let Nine-Headed Bird inspect their spatial storage devices.
However, at that moment, a shocking aura suddenly descended upon the cave.
Nine-Headed Bird was shocked and confused. "Solitary Crocodile?"
He walked out of the cave and hid his displeasure. He forced a smile. "What brings boss here?"
He felt strange. He had just seen Solitary Crocodile yesterday. Why was he here today?
Could it be that something happened?
However, as soon as he walked out of the cave, Nine-Headed Bird's vision went black. A giant black fist smashed into his face.
Instantly, Nine-Headed Bird cried out in pain. He was thrown deep into the cave. The entire cave shook violently as if it was going to collapse.
At the cave entrance, Solitary Crocodile walked out angrily. His eyes were filled with murderous intent. "You little bastard, you dare to attack me? You must be tired of living!"
Nine-Headed Bird was hit for no reason and was heavily injured. He wiped the blood from his mouth and said, "Boss, why did you …"
Solitary Crocodile took out a piece of torn sleeve and threw it at Nine-Headed Bird's face. He said coldly, "Why do you ask?"
Nine-Headed Bird looked at the sleeve in surprise. "This is mine. Why is it in big brother's hands?"
"Heh, heh, it's not just in my hands. It's in my storage space!" Lone Crocodile's eyes were ice-cold.
Nine-headed Bird was also confused and quickly explained, "This … I think I accidentally gave a piece of my sleeve to Boss when I asked you to protect Fei Fei."
He racked his brain, but he couldn't remember handing over a piece of clothing to Boss.
"Hehe, your protection fee is gone. Hmm, my years of hard work are gone as well. All that's left in my storage space is this sleeve. Don't you think it's strange?" Solitary Crocodile's face was filled with killing intent.
"Ah! Boss, you … you were also robbed? " Nine-headed Bird was shocked. He quickly opened his storage dimension and said, "Last night, my storage dimension was also stolen!"
Lone Crocodile was taken aback. He looked at the Nine-headed Bird with an even colder gaze.
"Don't play this game with me, Nine-Headed Bird! You stole my storage space and pretended to be a victim to get away with it, didn't you? " Lone Crocodile said calmly, "If I remember correctly, the reason you traveled for thousands of years was to enter the Monster Realm, right?
The next stop is the Monster Realm. You want to take my things and run away, right? "
At that moment, Nine-Headed Bird could not explain what was going on even if he had a hundred mouths. How did his sleeve end up in the Solitary Crocodile's storage space?
"Boss, please believe me. I'm also a victim!"
Lone Crocodile was a local tyrant and was overbearing. He wouldn't listen to Nine-headed Bird's explanation.
Moreover, he was a suspect. Why should he believe him?
"I don't care. I'll give you one day to return everything you took. Otherwise, I don't mind making a cave master disappear!"
In the past, it was always disobedient guests who disappeared. Now, it was very likely that Nine-headed Bird himself would disappear.
Deep fear filled his eyes. He wanted to explain himself, but he couldn't find a way to do so.
Nine-headed Bird fell into a state of panic and anxiety as he watched Lone Crocodile leave.
He was the only one who knew that he hadn't stolen Lone Crocodile's storage space. If he was that capable, he wouldn't have needed to run a shady shop in a cave and risk his life to kill people.
In just one night, the culprit had stolen from him and Lone Crocodile.
This was enough to prove that the culprit had the ability to travel in the dark!
There was only one person in Rahu who could ignore the dangers in the dark!
The Yin Yang Trade Caravan!
Even half-step Dao Lords wouldn't dare to travel in the dark. Only the Yin Yang Trade Caravan could.
Moreover, the theft happened right after the Yin Yang Trade Caravan arrived.
How could it be so coincidental?
'Could they be imposters of the Yin Yang Trade Caravan?' Nine-headed Bird thought.
There were many scammers in history who impersonated the Yin Yang Trade Caravan.
There were countless scammers who fell for them because almost no one had seen the Yin Yang Trade Caravan before. They could only guess from the legends.
The more Nine-headed Bird thought about it, the more suspicious he became.
"Hmph! If I find out that you're imposters of the Yin Yang Trade Caravan, I won't let you off! "Nine-headed Bird stared at the Yin Yang Trade Caravan and observed them in secret.
As night fell, most of the martial artists were asleep. However, Nine-headed Bird was still observing the Yin Yang Trade Caravan.
They were faintly discernible in the darkness under the illumination of the blood light.
After waiting for a long time, an extremely light cracking sound suddenly resounded from within the blood coffin.
The sound was mixed with the low roar of a beast. If one didn't listen carefully, it would be very difficult to hear.
Nine-headed Bird's ears twitched. He immediately became alert and carefully observed the blood coffin.
The lid of the blood coffin actually moved on its own, revealing a gap. A slender figure actually climbed out of the coffin and sneaked into the cave.
Nine-headed Bird was enraged when he saw this.
It really was them!
Because they possessed an ability that allowed them to not fear the dark, they snuck into caves in the dead of night to steal other people's belongings.
"Damn it!"
Not long after, the slender figure returned to the Yin Yang Trade Caravan and spoke to the dragonman who led the way.
"Reporting to the nine Great Paragons, there's no fated person worth trading with," the slender figure said.
The dragonman nodded slightly and said, "We'll leave Rahu tomorrow."
As he spoke, he glanced in Nine-headed Bird's direction.
The next day, at dawn.
The night had just receded when Lone Crocodile's powerful aura descended upon the cave.
"Nine-headed Bird, one day has passed. Are you going to hand over my things, or do you want me to send you on your way?" Lone Crocodile said calmly.
Nine-headed Bird hurriedly walked out and took out a Memory Crystal. "Big Brother, please calm down. Please take a look at this."
Lone Crocodile glanced at it casually, but his eyes were fixed on the image.
After a moment of silence, he said in a deep voice, "Are you saying that they did it?"
"Big Brother, do you think there are other possibilities? Apart from them, who else can travel fearlessly in the dark? "
In fact, Lone Crocodile had also thought about this problem. The Nine-headed Bird couldn't travel from his cave to his cave in the middle of the night, ignore all the restrictive spells, and empty his storage space without attracting his attention.
