Chapter 8

"Money?"

Realizing that Bai Ye actually wanted to rob them too, Brother Tian and the other young nobles trembled. Though unwilling, under Bai Ye's vicious threats, they obediently handed over their money pouches.

"Hand them all over!"

Looking at the exquisitely made money pouches before him, Bai Ye snatched them all away amid Brother Tian and the others' reluctant gazes, weighing them in his hand with satisfaction.

Bai Ye did not spare the money carried by the servants either.

He had one of the young nobles collect it all.

"Young Master... isn't what we're doing a little inappropriate? This seems like robbery..."

Standing beside Bai Ye, Qing Lin watched as Bai Ye went from victim to perpetrator, snatching all these people's money amid the reluctant gazes of the young nobles and servants. She hesitated before speaking softly and haltingly.

"What's wrong with that? I'm not robbing them for no reason. They brought people here to bully us, so I'm doing this."

"Have you thought about it? If we were just ordinary people, after facing their bullying, we'd probably have had to crawl back."

"It's only because I'm stronger that we can still stand here unharmed. They're not good people!"

"So don't pity them. Robbing good people is definitely wrong, but robbing these bad people isn't called robbery. This is 'robbing the rich to help the poor'!"

Seeing that Qing Lin actually sympathized with these people, Bai Ye immediately gave her an earnest explanation. This was the first sign of a saint complex, after all. He began molding Qing Lin's values into his own shape.

"So this is robbing the rich to help the poor?"

Listening to Bai Ye's explanation and realizing that Brother Tian and the others were not good people either, Qing Lin immediately felt that Bai Ye made perfect sense and came to a sudden realization.

So when dealing with bad people, you should rob the bad people's wealth to help their poverty. That was how it worked!

After taking all the money from Brother Tian, the other young nobles, and the servants—

Bai Ye suddenly found himself troubled by having too much money, because he realized he might not be able to carry it all back.

There was no room on him!

"Ah! If only I had some spatial equipment, like a Space Ring or something!"

Bai Ye could not help feeling helpless as Yu Xiaogang suddenly came to mind.

Even trash like Yu Xiaogang had more than one Storage Spirit Device, while he did not have a single one. How frustrating!

Just as Bai Ye sighed helplessly—

A cold voice suddenly rang out in his mind.

"Ding! The system has detected the host's urgent need for spatial equipment. The host is actually envious of Yu Xiaogang's Storage Spirit Devices, which the system finds utterly contemptible. The system casually grants the host: Space Ring x1 (10x10x10 cubic meters)."

Holy crap! System Daddy gave me something again!

Hearing that the system had rewarded him with a spatial item containing one thousand cubic meters of space, Bai Ye was instantly overjoyed.

A capacity of one thousand cubic meters was practically a small warehouse.

It was countless times larger than Tang San's Twenty-Four Bridges Moonlight Night, which only had twenty-four cubic meters of space!

With this Space Ring, Bai Ye naturally no longer had to worry about being unable to take the money pouches with him.

But to be safe, Bai Ye still did not reveal his Space Ring. Instead, he first stripped the outer robe off one of the young nobles and used it as a bundle, packing up the stolen money pouches to take away.

After leaving the alley and reaching a deserted place—

Only then did Bai Ye store the bundle full of money pouches into his Space Ring.

"Young Master! The bundle... the bundle is gone!!"

Seeing the bundle on Bai Ye's back suddenly disappear, Qing Lin was dumbfounded, her face full of disbelief.

How could a perfectly normal bundle suddenly vanish?!

"Hehe, don't worry. I put it somewhere safer. Come on, let's go home first. Old Man Li must have been waiting for a long time already!"

Seeing the little maidservant Qing Lin's shocked, adorably dazed expression, Bai Ye could not help finding it amusing. Taking Qing Lin's hand, he prepared to lead her out of the city to find Old Man Li outside.

Because he retained memories of living in Holy Soul Village, Bai Ye understood many things about the village.

He knew that vegetable farmers like Old Man Li generally sold all their vegetables to merchants rather than setting up street stalls.

So they could actually sell out very quickly.

By now, Old Man Li had probably already left the city and was waiting for them outside.
