"Catch her!" The more Mu Ze thought about it, the more embarrassed and angry he felt. He flew towards the female thief with murderous intent, and Mu Xitian, Mu Yuying and others followed closely behind him.

At the same time, the crowd of onlookers also took action. Although they were all civilians, and even if they had practiced, they would not exceed the second level at most, but after all, there were many of them, and they rushed forward in a swarm, which was very imposing.

"Hehe, I have never failed since my debut. I didn't expect to fall in such a small town. Forget it, I won't make things difficult for you." The female thief said with a sweet smile. Although she was not good-looking, her voice was beautiful and pleasant.

As soon as the voice fell, the female thief flew up, and everyone around her was shaken to the ground by an invisible force, even Mu Ze and his companions were no exception.

"A seventh-rank swordsman!" Mu Ze's face turned pale with horror, and several other Mu family members were also shocked.

They never dreamed that this female thief was actually a seventh-level swordsman. If they fought with her, they would definitely suffer a great loss due to the surprise attack. But fortunately, the other party had no intention of taking action.

The female thief leaped over the heads of the crowd. Although she was not as good as the sword master's wind control technique, her figure was as light and graceful as a flying swallow, and seemed to be no weaker than the sword master's aerial steps that stayed in the air when he barely used the wind control technique.

"Your name is Hanyan, right? It's you who ruined my business. I will remember you. And remember me too. My name is Ye Yanran." When flying past the restaurant on the street, the female thief suddenly turned her head, looked at Mu Hanyan and smiled, then left quietly.

The face, which would have been forgotten immediately in a crowd, suddenly had some alluring charm.

Mu Hanyan lifted her chin and said: It seems that I’m in trouble.

She hadn't expected this female thief to be so powerful. Mu Ze and the others only thought she was a sixth-rank swordsman, but with Mu Hanyan's keen eyesight, it wasn't hard to see that this female thief was clearly an eighth-rank swordsman, but her use of energy was more inclined towards light-weight techniques, so her strength seemed lower.

The folk customs in Xiaoyang City seem to be very simple. Although those whose belongings were stolen rushed forward in a swarm, they only picked up their own things. Others did not move at all. Mu Ze and others also picked up their own swords, purses, jade pendants and other items.

Mu Ze strapped his sword back to his waist and looked at Mu Hanyan with a hesitant and awkward expression. Behind him, Mu Xitian and Mu Yuying had the same expression.

Logically, it was Mu Hanyan's help that allowed them to recover their stolen items, so they should have stepped forward to express their gratitude. However, this matter was too humiliating. Not only had Mu Xitian and Mu Yuying's purses and jade pendants been stolen, but they hadn't even noticed Mu Ze's sword had been stolen. Furthermore, they had unanimously accused and threatened Mu Hanyan. To express gratitude now would have been too shameless. So, they froze there for a moment.

"Sir, thanks to your timely action, I was able to recover the stolen items. It's really..." They didn't move, but a young man stepped forward and said, sounding like he was about to thank Mu Hanyan.

"Why are you thanking him? He clearly wanted to molest the female thief, and he only helped you recover your property by accident. He is not a good person." A middle-aged man next to him grabbed him and said contemptuously.

This middle-aged man had been criticizing Mu Hanyan all the time, but in the blink of an eye, the woman who was molested became a female thief, and Mu Hanyan became a hero who helped everyone recover the stolen items. This made him feel very ashamed, so he couldn't help but throw dirty water on Mu Hanyan.

Human nature is sometimes so ugly.
