Gasp!
Instantly, the middle-aged man and the white-haired old man gasped in terror. The emaciated thief turned pale and started to tremble all over!
The Litian Academy was one of the top three academies in the Zhenyuan Celestial Realm! Countless Elders and even leaders of big sects had graduated from this academy, which played a decisive role in this world!
Now, the daughter of Qin Xiangtian, the current dean of this academy, was standing in front of them! More important, Qin Susu was ranked tenth on the Human List of the Heavenly Tripod List, which was the most authoritative ranking list for the strength of cultivators in the entire World of Near Celestials! Any powerful cultivator whose bone age was lower than 2,000 years could be listed in this ranking list, no matter whether this cultivator was from the Heaven Continent, the Earth Continent, or the Xuanhuang Continent!
The ranking list for cultivators at the Human Celestial Stage was the Human List of the Heavenly Tripod List. Qin Susu ranked tenth on this list, which meant her strength was really remarkable! Therefore, she could shock the middle-aged man with her identity as the tenth on the Human List of the Heavenly Tripod List, as well as the fact that she was also the daughter of Qin Xiangtian!


Bang!
Suddenly, the middle-aged man slapped the back of the emaciated man with his hand heavily. Along with a dull sound, the emaciated man went down on his knees with a pale face. Before the middle-aged man said something, he shouted in terror,
Ms. Qin, please forgive me! I am as blind as a bat! I was wrong to steal from your friends! Please spare my life, Ms. Qin!


Spare your life? I didn’t say I would kill you!
Qin Susu said with a smile.
Hearing that, the emaciated man kowtowed and he shouted,
Thank you, Ms. Qin! Thank you, Ms. Qin!


Ms. Qin, this is a misunderstanding! Please show your mercy and forgive us! In future, we will follow the rules strictly! We will make a compensation to your friends for ten times what their stolen properties were worth!
The middle-aged man said earnestly.
Hearing that, Qin Susu said, nodding her head,
Since you have made an apology in such a sincere way, I won’t blame you any further. I will forgive you. As for the compensation to my friends, you should do it according to the rules!


OK! OK! Thank you very much for your magnanimity, Ms. Qin!
The middle-aged man let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile.
Then he kicked the emaciated man who was kneeling on the ground and said seriously,
What are you waiting for? You should make a compensation to Ms. Qin’s friends for ten times the amount of the things stolen by you!


As you wish!
The emaciated man replied immediately. Then he started to search for something on his body. Members of the Steal Sect always kept their Storage Rings in their belts or other hidden places. They wouldn’t wear the Storage Rings on their hands because the Storage Rings would glow and attract the attention of others when things were placed into them.
However, after searching in his belt for a while, his expression changed and he started to tremble. Then he looked up at the middle-aged man and said helplessly,
Leader, I can’t find my…Storage Rings!




What?
The middle-aged man was shocked by his words.

I always keep my Storage Rings in this place. They were there when I stole from that young master!
The emaciated man said as he pointed at a young man beside Qin Susu.

Did you still have your Storage Rings when you stole from him?
The middle-aged man said, pointing at Xu Que.
The emaciated man said, putting on a long face,
I failed to steal anything from him! It seemed…this young master had nothing on his body! So, I decided to return… Wait! No, the feeling at that time was quite familiar!

Suddenly, the emaciated man remembered that he decided to leave when he found nothing on Xu Que’s body. Then, when he was about to leave, he got a vague feeling that an indistinct Soul Strength had swept away on his body. However, he ignored that for he thought Xu Que had tried to check his cultivation stage. Now, when he recalled that scene, he found Xu Que’s action was quite similar to the magic arts of the Steal Sect.

It’s…you!
As he thought of this, the emaciated man looked at Xu Que in shock. As an experienced thief, he was basically sure that when he tried to steal something from Xu Que, all his Storage Rings were stolen by Xu Que silently.

Me? What’s wrong with me? Oh, you lost your Storage Rings and have forgotten what you stole from me, right? It’s OK! You stole more than 9,000 Inferior Celestial Artifacts from me! You don’t need to compensate me for ten times that! Five times are OK for me!
Xu Que said affectedly.

More than 9,000 Inferior Celestial Artifacts?
The middle-aged man was shocked and looked at Xu Que with puzzlement. Then he turned to Qin Susu. Apparently, he didn’t take Xu Que’s words seriously but was curious about Xu Que’s purpose of bluffing.

Leader!
At this time, the emaciated man stood up and said in a low voice seriously,
This guy is a peer and he is damn good!


What?
Hearing that, the middle-aged man’s eyes got wide instantly. He knew his underling wouldn’t dare to fool him. So, what the emaciated man said must be true!



My Storage Rings were stolen by him!
The emaciated man added.
The middle-aged man was totally confused. One of his underlings had violated the rules by stealing things from Qin Susu’s friend. However, the thief’s Storage Rings were then stolen by another friend of Qin Susu. Now, Qin Susu had come here to send a punitive expedition against him. Does it mean she is trying to extort me?

Wait! What did you say? My younger brother stole your Storage Rings?
Qin Susu asked as she looked at that emaciated man in surprise.
The emaciated man said obsequiously,
Ms. Qin, I swear with the Inner Demons that I will die miserably if I told a lie to you!

Swish!
All at once, everyone fixed their eyes on Xu Que.
Anyone who swore with the Inner Demons would never tell a lie. It meant this thief’s Storage Rings had really been stolen by Xu Que!

My younger brother!
Qin Susu looked at Xu Que thoughtfully.

What? My younger sister, I’ve told you that! I lost nothing and even gained something! You just didn’t believe what I said!
Xu Que shrugged as he answered fearlessly.
Then he took out the thief’s Storage Rings and played with them. Apparently, he was showing off.



Then, why did you say you lost something after that? It turns out you are a liar! No, you are not only a liar, but also a thief who knows the magic arts of the Steal Sect!!
Qin Susu’s expression was no longer that mild. Her tone was even colder than before. After all, she had thought Xu Que was just a silly boy who always uttered funny words before that. So, she had asked him to be her younger brother for fun. Now, she realized she had made a mistake. This guy was so cunning and even dared to tease her!

Hey! My younger sister, why are you so angry? Calm down! I’ve told you that I am Bai Zhantang of the Exploding Heavens Faction. You haven’t heard of my name because you are ignorant!
Xu Que said with a smile.

What do you mean?
Qin Susu asked seriously.
Xu Que replied with a smile,
All well-informed people know Bai Zhantang of the Exploding Heavens Faction has a nickname—the Steal Sage!

Boom!
The next moment, a magnificent Celestial Core Power gushed out from Xu Que’s body, which filled the area with violent winds.
Qin Susu and the others in this area had to resist the violent winds with their Celestial Core Power. However, they saw a figure flying in front of them and disappearing at the exit of the alley.
Then Xu Que’s voice could be heard from afar,
Remember! I will only teach you a lesson this time. In future, you shall be more careful and don’t offend me!
After that, the violent winds disappeared. People found Xu Que had gone. They were not even able to sense his aura.

A lesson? What does that mean?
Qin Susu said with puzzlement.

Wait!



At this moment, the middle-aged man, who had just tried to search for his Storage Ring in his clothes, changed his expression abruptly. Then he yelled angrily,
He stole my Storage Ring, where all the stolen properties of the Steal Sect’s branch in Baihui City for the last 800 years are kept!
