"Tuk, tuk, tuk …"
The sound of hooves beating on the muddy ground could be heard. The three warhorses were all fine horses of the Endless Forest, so their bodies were relatively heavy. Their hooves kicked up the mud on the official road as they galloped forward like three bolts of lightning.
Riding on the warhorse, Lin Muyu concentrated the power of her soul and soon found the aura of the Sword Soul again. Perhaps the person who stole the sword would not have thought that he could find the sword by relying on the location of the Sword Soul. Treading on the snow, she was getting closer and closer. In the blink of an eye, she was less than a mile away from the thief.
At this time, the rain had stopped. Looking from afar, a man in black tights was galloping on the official road. Unfortunately, his horse was not as majestic as Lin Muyu's and the others', and he was about to be caught up. Suddenly, he looked back and couldn't help but tremble when he saw Lin Muyu. And Lin Muyu also saw clearly that the long sword on the back of this man was Xing Chen!
"How dare he steal it from me …"
Lin Muyu was a little sad and indignant. She was the Grand Deacon of the Holy Temple of the Empire, and was also praised by Qin Yin as the strongest person under the age of 30 in the Empire. Now, her long sword was stolen from her room. It was a great shame!
Seeing that the warhorse could not outrun her, the thief immediately pulled the reins and led the warhorse to the side of the forest!
"Hualala …"
This was a forest full of bushes and thorns. The horse was quickly stabbed and cried out in pain. When Lin Muyu, Qin Yin, and Tang Xiaoxi arrived, they only saw the neck of the horse full of blood. It stood there swinging its tail, and the person had disappeared. What a fast movement! What kind of Lightness Skill was that?
Lin Muyu quickly turned over and dismounted from the horse. She turned around and said, "I will chase him with Falling Star Steps. Xiao Yin, Xiao Xi, you two lead the horse and wait for me here. I will come back after I catch up with him."
"Well, Brother Yu, be careful!"
"Be careful, Mu!"
The two girls looked up at the same time. They also knew that they could not catch up with Lin Muyu in the forest. Moreover, the thief seemed to have extraordinary skills. Even if they caught up with him, he would only be a burden to Lin Muyu.
…
"Swoosh …"
Stepping on the Astral Light, Lin Muyu disappeared into the forest like a shadow. Her King's Battle Flame was slowly rising. Using the Spirit Pulse Spell, she locked onto the thief's position. When Lin Muyu suddenly passed through the broad-leaved forest, she saw that the thief was only a few hundred meters away from her. His running speed was frighteningly fast. His legs were running as if he was flying. Stepping on the grass and leaves, she could faintly see the light of Battle Qi surrounding his body. Damn, he's a Heaven Realm Warrior. There are really many extraordinary people in this continent!
Lin Muyu sprinted with all her might. Her speed had already been raised to the limit. Her Falling Star Steps swept through the forest like a meteor falling to the ground. At the same time, she let out popping sounds as if she was flying.
However, the thief's speed did not seem to be inferior. He carried the Stars Sword on his back and continued to run. His feet were surrounded by a dense wind type fighting energy. Every step he took seemed to be using a mystic technique that could shrink the ground to inches. Although it was a distance of tens of meters, he was able to cover it in a single leap. His body was like a phantom and was very mysterious.
"What kind of damned Qinggong is this?"
Lin Muyu was a little speechless. Ever since she came to the Shattered Cauldron Realm, this was the first time she saw someone who could beat her Falling Star Steps in Qinggong. This person was really not simple. Moreover, even at such a close distance, Lin Muyu's Star Steps couldn't sense the thief's aura at all. It was as if the thief's aura was completely concealed.
In the end, Lin Muyu chased with all her might. The thief also ran with all his might. One in front, one behind. No one could catch up, and no one could escape. Just like that, they passed through the mountain road at the side of the official road. After running for nearly 20 kilometers, the thief finally showed a trace of fatigue. The distance between the two was getting closer. Presumably, his Qinggong also consumed a lot of fighting energy. His fighting energy was obviously not as vigorous and long as Lin Muyu's King Fighting Flame. He lost in terms of cultivation!
"Swoosh …"
The thief suddenly stopped running. He raised his hand and pulled out the Stars Sword. He roared angrily, "Bastard, why are you chasing me so hard?!"
The Stars Sword was full of fighting energy. The power of a divine weapon could not be underestimated. At this moment, Lin Muyu couldn't take it head-on with her bare hands. She suddenly spun her body and dodged the Stars Sword's slash with her Butterfly Steps. Her arm moved smoothly and the back of her hand, which was full of King Fighting Flame, lightly hit the thief's back!
"Bang!"
The Battle Armor shattered instantly. She never expected that the thief was actually a Heavenly King!
But obviously, the Heavenly King's strength was inferior to the Holy King's by three realms. He wasn't a match for him at all. Lin Muyu's casual attack directly caused him to vomit blood.
"Damn it!"
The thief flew into a rage out of humiliation. He turned around and swept out a second attack.
Lin Muyu didn't even use the pressure of her Holy Realm to suppress him. Instead, she wanted to test the thief's skills. She suddenly leaned back and did a Metal Bridge. At the same time, she raised her boot and kicked the thief's wrist with her King Fighting Flame.
The thief reacted very quickly. He turned his wrist and twisted the blade of his sword in the air. He turned around and slashed at Lin Muyu's foot.
How could this be!
Lin Muyu immediately activated the Seven Luminaries Holy Gourd's ability, Dragon Blood Shield. In the next moment, the Stars Sword struck the Dragon Blood Shield and rebounded with a clang. Lin Muyu took advantage of this opportunity to open her palm. Strands of astral power appeared and wrapped around the blade of the Stars Sword. She suddenly pulled it back. "Return it to me!"
The strength of a Holy King was so powerful that she directly dragged the thief and the sword back.
Buzz, buzz …
A golden gourd wall disintegrated into countless golden armor leaves and wrapped around Lin Muyu's five fingers. The golden steel palm grabbed the blade of the Stars Sword and quickly snatched it away. At the same time, she raised her battle knee and slammed 10% of her King Fighting Flame into the thief's abdomen!
"Argh …"
The thief spat out another mouthful of blood and fell to the ground. His body spasmed and he was about to be crippled.
Lin Muyu sheathed the Stars Sword and went up to the thief's face mask. She found that it was a young man around 25 years old. His eyes were filled with anger.
"Who are you?"
"I will never change my name or my surname …" He slowly sat up, his eyes filled with pride as he said, "I am Bai Yin!"
"Bai Yin? I don't know you … "Lin Muyu shook her head.
"You!"
Bai Yin was furious. He felt that his pride had been hurt. "You don't even know the famous Thief Saint Bai Yin. How dare you live in Jianghu? Humph, what a joke. "
"You're the joke." Lin Muyu smiled with an imposing manner. "Do you know who I am?"
"Who are you?"
"Do you know Lin Muyu?"
"You're Lin Muyu?" Bai Yin couldn't help but laugh out loud. "If you're the famous general Lin Muyu, then I'm the reincarnation of the God of War, Xiang Wentian!"
"I can't explain it to you."
Lin Muyu went up and slapped the back of Bai Yin's head, knocking him out. She put him under her armpit and used Falling Star Steps to go back. She returned to where she was in less than an hour. Qin Yin and Tang Xiaoxi were waiting anxiously. When they saw Lin Muyu come back, they went up to greet her.
"Yu, you caught him?"
"Yes." Lin Muyu threw the thief to the ground and said, "This is the person who stole the Stellar Sword. He's quite skilled and calls himself the Thief Saint Bai Yin. I've never heard of him before!"
"Ah?"
Tang Xiaoxi couldn't help but laugh. "Silly Mu, you're so focused on the empire's military affairs that you don't know about the rumors in Jianghu. This Thief Saint Bai Yin is a famous figure in Jianghu!"
"Oh? How famous is he … "Lin Muyu asked. Qin Yin, who was at the side, was also waiting for Tang Xiaoxi's reply with her eyes wide open. It was clear that she lived in Ze Tian Palace every day and didn't have the time to listen to the rumors in Jianghu.
Tang Xiaoxi said, "Thief Saint Bai Yin, twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, can be said to be a legend of a generation. It's said that he studied under the Thief God Zhuge Xing when he was very young. He was struck by lightning when he was young, but he didn't die. Instead, he obtained an extraordinary cultivation. He followed Zhuge Xing and practiced the Turtle Breathing Technique, Absolute Step, Yang Shen Art, and other secret arts since he was young. He can take things from a distance and become invisible like a shadow.
"There's such a thing …"
Lin Muyu looked at the unconscious Bai Yin on the ground and said, "Hmph hmph, didn't I still easily knock him out …"
Tang Xiaoxi tilted her head and looked at her proud expression. She couldn't help but smile affectionately. "Silly Mu, do you think everyone has your mysterious encounters and almost abnormal cultivation speed? If you didn't exist in this world, Bai Yin might be the strongest person in the younger generation. "
"That's true." Lin Muyu nodded. Bai Yin had the cultivation of a Heavenly King at the age of twenty-seven, while Xiang Yu had only stepped into the Heavenly King Realm at the age of thirty-one. This meant that Bai Yin's strength was already firmly above Xiang Yu's, but slightly inferior to Feng Jixing's.
"Now, how does Big Brother Yu plan to deal with this Thief Saint?" Qin Yin asked with a smile.
Lin Muyu muttered to herself and said, "I can't let this brat go around stealing things. Since he fell into my hands today, I will tame him and make him serve the empire. Xiao Yin, confer him an official title. How about it?"
"Alright, I'll listen to you."
…
"Splash …"
The water in the water bag splashed onto Bai Yin's face. He woke up with a start and said angrily, "Stinking b * stard, let me go if you have the guts. I want to fight 300 rounds with you and decide who's the stronger."
"I didn't tie you up."
Lin Muyu stood majestically. The fighting flame on her body slowly spun, and the pressure of the sacred lingered around, causing Bai Yin to feel a chill from the bottom of his heart. This was Lin Muyu's true strength, an ability that completely surpassed the Heaven Realm. It could be said that with Bai Yin's current cultivation, Lin Muyu could fight ten of him.
"I … I'm not feeling well today. I'll beat you up another day!" Bai Yin said, unconvinced.
…
"Bai Yin, you stole the sword of the commander of the empire's Longdan Army Camp, Lin Muyu. Do you know your crime?" To the side, Qin Yin's pretty face was cold as she spoke with authority. This kind of presence was not something a normal woman could have.
