Female Bandit Says Who's a Little Thief?!

"Ding! Signing in... Successfully signed in as the Low-Level Spirit Beast Blood Pig Tiger!"

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have successfully signed in and obtained the sign-in reward—the Mustard Seed Bracelet!"

Zhao Chen was stunned when he heard this.

Immediately afterward, he reached out and caught a ball of light.

Once the light faded, the Mustard Seed Bracelet had appeared in his palm.

It was a gray-silver ring resembling a bracelet, flickering with a faint silver glow.

"Could this really be the Mustard Seed Bracelet?"

Zhao Chen examined it carefully, his eyes lighting up.

The so-called Mustard Seed Bracelet was a special spiritual artifact.

This kind of spiritual artifact possessed the power to construct space, making it an extremely rare storage artifact.

It was named after the phrase "Sumeru contains mustard seeds, and a mustard seed contains Sumeru."

It could be said that in the Northern Spiritual Realm, only experts of the Nine Regions Master's and Northern Spiritual Academy Dean's level possessed a storage artifact like the Mustard Seed Bracelet, Huang Zonggong.

"It's just a pity that spiritual power can't be used in the Spirit Road."

Zhao Chen sighed. Without an infusion of spiritual power, how could the Mustard Seed Bracelet, a spiritual artifact, possibly display its storage function?

Without spiritual power, the only way he could make it recognize him as its master was by using blood.

After thinking it over, he still dripped a drop of blood onto the Mustard Seed Bracelet.

He would only feel at ease once the thing recognized him as its master.

"Wait..."

After establishing a connection with the Mustard Seed Bracelet, Zhao Chen frowned, then looked at the Asura Sword in his hand.

With a slight movement of his thoughts, the slender Asura Sword disappeared from his hand.

"No way. The Mustard Seed Bracelet is a storage artifact that can be used without spiritual power!?"

When Zhao Chen discovered the Asura Sword inside the Mustard Seed Bracelet's storage space, he was completely dumbfounded.

As everyone knew, spiritual artifacts generally needed to be infused with spiritual power before they could display their might.

A storage artifact like the Mustard Seed Bracelet naturally needed spiritual power to store things as well.

However, the Mustard Seed Bracelet had changed Zhao Chen's understanding of storage artifacts to some extent.

So it turned out that spiritual power wasn't required to use the Mustard Seed Bracelet.

"Perhaps this Mustard Seed Bracelet is special in itself."

Zhao Chen thought about it. He didn't believe that the Mustard Seed Bracelets in the Northern Spiritual Realm could be as extraordinary as the one in his hand.

That made it easier to understand.

He put the Mustard Seed Bracelet on his wrist and took out the Asura Sword.

After simply processing the Blood Pig Tiger's hide, he used the ready-made wood from an ancient tree to make a scabbard, then placed the Asura Sword inside it.

Using the Blood Pig Tiger's tough sinews as material, he made a rope and tied it to the scabbard.

"A blood-red scabbard. It actually looks pretty good."

Zhao Chen was very satisfied with the scabbard. He then slung the Asura Sword over his back and headed forward.

With the Asura Sword and the Mustard Seed Bracelet, he could hunt Spirit Beasts while searching for those rare heavenly treasures.

"Ding! A new sign-in task has been triggered: Kill three Level 2 Spirit Beasts to obtain one sign-in opportunity!"

Zhao Chen's eyes lit up, and his pace quickened considerably.

Just then, he heard a sound slicing through the air from behind.

"Stop!"

The sharp cry rang out across the area.

Zhao Chen's body stiffened, but he immediately quickened his steps.

He even wanted to fly away—faster, as fast as possible—to shake off the person chasing him from behind.

"Why are you running!?"

The Blue-clothed Girl, Wu Yingying, watched Zhao Chen's retreating figure grow farther and farther away, both startled and furious. She shouted:

"Little Thief, you're that Little Thief!"

Apart from that reason, she genuinely couldn't understand why the person before her had suddenly accelerated and fled.

A Snow White Dagger appeared in her fair, jade-like hand amid flashing radiance.

Wu Yingying bit her lip, etching Zhao Chen's figure from moments ago deeply into her eyes before murmuring:

"Damn Little Thief, I, Wu Yingying, definitely won't let you off!"

Her nose twitched slightly. Then, like a swallow skimming lightly through the air, she rapidly pursued Zhao Chen in the direction he had left.

After chasing for more than ten minutes, Zhao Chen could still sense Wu Yingying's relentless pursuit behind him, and the corner of his mouth twitched several times.

What was this Little Girl's nose made of?

How could she keep chasing him without giving up?

Zhao Chen began to regret it. If he had known she would be so troublesome, he wouldn't have taken her Crimson Token. He should have simply left and searched for a suitable Low-Level Spirit Beast.

Why had he gotten himself into such trouble, forcing him to constantly change direction just to escape?

Before he knew it, he had reached the depths of the Deep Mountain.

The endless roars of Spirit Beasts made Zhao Chen's scalp tingle.

It wasn't that he feared these Spirit Beasts. Rather, he felt that Wu Yingying, who was still pursuing him relentlessly, had to be crazy?!

Wasn't she afraid that a powerful Spirit Beast might suddenly appear and bite her to death?

"Not good, it's a Rift Valley!"

Zhao Chen's expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly stopped his sprint.

A huge Rift Valley had clearly appeared ahead of him.

Looking down into the Rift Valley, he couldn't see the bottom at all.

At this height, even an Intermediate Spirit Beast would surely be smashed to death if it fell!

"Little Thief!"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Blue-clothed Girl, Wu Yingying, who had been pursuing him relentlessly, finally caught up.

When she saw Zhao Chen stop, she quickly used the opportunity to catch her breath.

Her flat chest rose and fell continuously.

A blush appeared on her fair, delicate face.

Wu Yingying raised her right hand and pointed the Snow White Dagger at Zhao Chen as she shouted:

"I told you to stop, yet you still dared to run? Now let's see where you can run, Zhao Chen! Keep running!"

She felt fortunate that a Rift Valley had appeared.

Otherwise, she probably wouldn't have been able to catch up with this Little Thief, who ran faster than a rabbit, for quite some time.

"Wu Yingying?"

Zhao Chen looked at the Blue-clothed Girl strangely. For some reason, his mind automatically ignored the clothing covering certain parts of her body. He then asked:

"No, why are you calling me a Little Thief? What have I done to offend you?"

He paused, his eyes flickering slightly, then continued:

"Yet you saw me kill the Low-Level Spirit Beast Blood Pig Tiger and tried to seize my Blood Pig Tiger Essence and take my life. You've chased me for so long. Aren't you a robber, a bandit!?"

As the saying went, only by turning the tables could he resolve the crisis before him.

Zhao Chen had seen through her. This Little Girl clearly had a vengeful personality.

If she truly believed that he had taken the Crimson Token,

then either the Crimson Token or his life would have to be left here.

He glanced at the Snow White Dagger in her hand, his eyes flickering slightly.

Good heavens, she wasn't simple.

"You—you're slandering me!"

Wu Yingying's eyes widened. Her right hand holding the Snow White Dagger trembled several times.

She had never imagined that this Little Thief would dare to turn the tables on her.

Clearly, he was the one in the wrong. How had it somehow become her fault instead?!

She was furious!

"Slandering you?"

Seeing her reaction, Zhao Chen secretly laughed. She was, after all, a Little Girl who had only just stepped into the world. The fact that she dared to bathe and play in the water of a stream in the Spirit Road without a care showed just how poor her vigilance was.

In that case, he had an opportunity to manipulate her.

His eyes shifted as he sneered:

"Then produce evidence proving that you weren't chasing me to kill me for the Blood Pig Tiger Essence!"

"If you can't produce evidence to prove your intentions, then you're a Female Bandit, as well as a female robber!"
