A Thief Appears on the Ferry?

"The first move of the Grass Character Sword Art - Savage!"

In the desolate wilderness, Sword Qi crisscrosses!

A girl in a pink and white tulle skirt moved swiftly across the wilderness.

Powerful Sword Qi slashed out from the girl's hands.

"That's good, you can learn it in two days!"

Ye Jing clapped his hands. Tomorrow they would arrive in the Central Continent. During the hunt at Qingyun Field, Qiuyue would have one more powerful move, making it easier for her to earn points!

"Thank you, young master!"

Qiuyue descended from the sky. Although she had learned a powerful sword move, it was astonishing that she could learn such a profound and extremely difficult sword move in just two days!

It's truly astonishing that the young master learned sword techniques from the Taixu Profound Realm that even the Sword Saint hadn't mastered in just two days!

But with the young master's masterpiece before her, no matter how fast she was, it was useless!

Instant enlightenment—who can compare?

"Alright, let's go back to the ferry!" Ye Jing said, then took out an array plate and placed it at his feet.

With a flash of light, the two disappeared into the desolate wilderness.

When it reappeared, it was in a private compartment on the ferry.

The practice moves definitely couldn't be done in the private room, so after leaving a teleportation array, Ye Jing took Qiuyue out to try them out!

"Knock knock!"

The two had just returned when they heard a knock on the door.

"Young Master Zhang, Miss Liu!"

It was the voice of a ferry maid.

Ye Jing and Qiuyue exchanged a glance, tidied up the room, and then Qiuyue went to open the door.

This time, they are a talented young man and a beautiful young woman.

A maid dressed in a brownish-yellow outfit stood outside the door.

"Miss Liu, someone just lost some belongings on the ferry. I came here specifically to ask if you've lost anything?"

The maid spoke softly.

Qiuyue glanced back at Ye Jing, and seeing Ye Jing shake his head, she said, "No, we haven't lost anything!"

"Alright, Mr. Zhang, Miss Liu, I apologize for the intrusion. Please refrain from going out until the murderer is apprehended, to avoid any potential danger!"

After the maid finished speaking, she curtsied and left to knock on the next door!

Creak!

Qiuyue closed the door and returned to Ye Jing's side.

"Young Master, won't this affect the ferry's arrival?" Qiuyue asked doubtfully. Tomorrow is the last day, and suddenly a thief has appeared.

"I don't know, but I have a bad feeling. You stay here, I'll go out and check!" Ye Jing frowned slightly.

He possessed the ability to "All Things Understood," and he couldn't help but value certain feelings he had about himself.

"Be careful, young master! I'll go with you!" Qiuyue said with some concern.

"No need. It's easier for me to act alone. Besides, if you go too, it might alert the thieves if there really are any." Ye Jing held Qiuyue back, preventing her from coming along.

"But..." Qiuyue wanted to say something, but Ye Jing interrupted her.

"There are no 'buts'. Just wait for me here. I'll be back soon." Ye Jing's tone was firm and left no room for doubt.

Looking into Ye Jing's eyes, Qiuyue knew his decision was irreversible, so she could only nod in agreement. "Then, young master, you must be careful."

"Don't worry, I will." Ye Jing smiled slightly, turned around and left the private room.

Concealing his presence, he walked along the ferry's corridor, remaining secretly vigilant.

Although his ' All Things Understood allows him to see everything, it doesn't mean he's immune to danger.

After all, he didn't yet know what was hidden behind this.

He followed his instincts and came to a secluded corner of the ferry.

There was no one around, only some piles of goods.

Ye Jing concealed himself and carefully observed his surroundings.

He noticed that the goods here were somewhat disorderly, clearly having been rummaged through.

Moreover, he could also smell a faint scent of blood.

"There was actually a battle here."

Ye Jing thought to himself, becoming even more vigilant.

Just then, he suddenly noticed a figure darting out from the shadows beside him, moving with lightning speed, heading straight for him.

Ye Jing's eyes narrowed, and his figure vanished from his spot in an instant, dodging the opponent's attack.

"Such speed!" Ye Jing was surprised. He could tell that the opponent was not weak, at least a master of the God Realm.

The opponent missed his attack and, without pausing, turned and fled.

How could Ye Jing let him go? He immediately gave chase.

The two engaged in a fierce chase on the ferry.

Although the opponent was fast, Ye Jing was even faster.

Ye Jing quickly caught up with the other person. He grabbed the other person's shoulder and subdued him.

The figure was completely wrapped in black cloth, with only a small portion of its eyes visible.

"Who are you? Why are you stealing?" Ye Jing asked coldly.

The other person didn't answer, but instead struggled to escape.

But Ye Jing's strength far surpassed his own, and he was unable to break free.

"Since you're unwilling to tell me, then I'll search for it myself."

After Ye Jing finished speaking, he began searching the other person's body.

The figure struggled even more violently, but still did not utter a word.

Hmm? Why are this thief's breasts so soft?

Ye Jing pulled a bulging cloth bag from the other person's arms.

Upon opening it, it was filled with Spirit Stone and pills!

That's a bit strange.

But the next second, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he ripped off the black hood of the figure in front of him.

In an instant, her jet-black hair cascaded down like a waterfall!

Ye Jing stared at the girl before him, his pupils contracting, an expression of disbelief on his face. He never imagined that the thief he was chasing would be such a beautiful young woman.

The girl was young, looking only fourteen or fifteen years old. Her skin was as white as jade, her features were exquisite, and her long, black hair cascaded over her shoulders, making her look like a fairy descended from heaven.

However, at this moment, the fairy looked at him with a look of horror, her eyes filled with helplessness and fear.

Ye Jing was surprised, but he didn't lower his guard. Instead, he stared intently at the girl in front of him and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you? Why are you stealing?"

The girl bit her lip, not answering his question, but struggling to escape. However, her strength was far inferior to Ye Jing's, and she was unable to break free from his grasp.

"Stop struggling, you can't escape," Ye Jing said coldly. "Tell me, who exactly are you?"

The girl still didn't answer his question; her eyes were glistening with tears, making her look quite pitiful.

Seeing the girl's appearance, Ye Jing remained unmoved.

Although the girl is pretty, Qiuyue is actually even prettier!

It's just that it's been following me around lately and has changed its appearance.

I already had a mental resistance.

And don't forget, this girl is a thief, and this profession is all about deception and disguise!

"You can't speak?" Ye Jing frowned. "Never mind, it's not important. Come with me!"

Ye Jing was a little embarrassed because he had accidentally touched the other person, which is why he said a few more words.

"Mmm... mmm..."

The girl nodded frantically, but could only make "uh-huh" sounds.

"Oh? You're mute? Then you should be punished for stealing!"

Ye Jing remained unmoved.

"Waaah... um..."

The girl then shook her head frantically.

"Hmm? You mean you didn't steal anything?"
