Episode 113: The Arrogant Little Thief

  When Lin Xiaoyun returned with the selected red wine, she saw that only Li Yan was left at the table and couldn't help but curiously ask: "Huh? Where's Little Snow?"

  Li Yan smiled calmly: "She just received a call, seems to have something urgent, so she left first." Indeed, Bai Xue had received a call from the captain of the second team in the opposite building, because Li Yan's words already made it clear that almost all situations were under control, and suddenly those security bureau guys couldn't calm down.

  "Oh," Lin Xiaoyun responded with a sound, and didn't think much of it. After all, she had only known Bai Xue for a few days, so it was impossible to have a deep relationship.

  After the two finished eating, they returned to the hospital together. It was just past 12 o'clock, during lunchtime, and the hospital's lobby was bustling with people coming and going. As they walked, Li Yan couldn't help but furrow his brow, and as he turned to look around, he saw a young man with blonde hair stealthily reaching into the handbag of a woman who was queuing up to register.

  Moreover, with Li Yan's keen eyesight, he clearly discovered that beside the blond young man, there was another suspicious-looking youth who was now looking around, his eyes occasionally scanning towards the blond young man and the woman in front of him. He must be an accomplice of the blond young man, keeping watch!

  "Thief?" Li Yan couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, thinking to himself that although he wasn't particularly disgusted by thieves, he didn't have a good impression of them either. Especially in a hospital, where many patients had sold their houses and land to come and seek treatment, only to have their money stolen before they could even see a doctor, delaying their best chance at treatment and leading to many tragic consequences.

  At this time, Lin Xiaoyun also discovered the anomaly and followed Li Yan's gaze to look over. Suddenly, she saw the blond young man stealing and couldn't help but let out a loud shout: "Thief!"

  Li Yan's face twisted into a bitter smile, and in an instant, before Lin Xiaojun's words had even fallen, he took a step forward and arrived at the thief's side. With one swift motion, he grabbed the thief's wrist and shouted: "What are you doing?!"

  Li Yan's loud shout immediately startled the people around him, especially the woman queuing for registration. When she found that someone had just tried to steal her things, she was shocked and lost her color, and after being frightened, she suddenly screamed loudly!

  "Come on, come and catch the thief!" The woman shouted loudly, her voice piercing through the air, echoing far away, attracting people from the surrounding hall to gather around and watch from a distance.

  However, unexpectedly, the yellow-haired young man caught by Li Yan at this moment showed no fear, looking at Li Yan with a hint of ferocity in his eyes, and said viciously: "Son of a bitch, who are you? If you know what's good for you, quickly take your paws off me, otherwise I won't be polite!"

  "Hmph!" Li Yan heard this and couldn't help but laugh in extreme anger, saying coldly: "Could it be that the world has really changed? You're just a little thief who was caught red-handed by me, yet you still show no fear, and even dare to speak to me like this? Tell me, if I don't let you go, what can you do to me?"

  Upon hearing this, the yellow-haired youth couldn't help but become extremely angry. At that moment, his right hand was grasped by Li Yan, and no matter how hard he struggled, Li Yan's palm was like an iron pincer, firmly clamping down on his wrist, making it impossible for him to break free. His face turned bright red from exerting too much force.

  "Damn it!" After struggling several times, the blond young man couldn't help but get angry and embarrassed. His left hand, however, took out a sharp dagger in a timely manner, pointing at Li Yan and shouting loudly: "Hurry up and let go of my hand, or else I won't be polite to you! Take a good look, the knife in my hand isn't for show, be careful or it'll go in white and come out red!"

  "Ah!" Lin Xiaoyun saw the situation and couldn't help but hastily exclaim: "Be careful!"

  Li Yan's face suddenly showed a strange expression, and he cursed loudly: "I spit on you! You little scoundrel, don't you know life or death? In broad daylight, you dare to draw your knife so recklessly. It seems that if I don't teach you a lesson today, you'll become even more arrogant in the future!"

  Since Li Yan entered society, he has encountered some big shots, either high-ranking officials or wealthy tycoons and noble sons. The rest were masters of the cultivation world. However, when these people faced him, which one was not extremely respectful? Those who dared to be presumptuous or provoke him had either already received a lesson or been directly sent to reincarnation by him.

  At this moment, a little thief dared to speak to him like that and even openly threatened him? Uncle could bear it, but Aunt couldn't. With a sudden burst of force on his hand, the blond young man suddenly felt a sharp pain in his wrist and involuntarily let out a loud "Ah yo" cry. Li Yan added another thread of energy, and the little thief immediately felt a severe pain spreading from his right wrist, followed by a faint cracking sound, which was the bone fracture.

  This is a heart-wrenching and bone-piercing pain, the blond young man can almost clearly feel that his bones have cracked, he's just a little thief, how can he bear such suffering, instantly tears flowed out of his eyes, in his heart, he couldn't help but cry out: "Damn it, I'm just stealing a wallet, and I haven't even succeeded yet, do I need to be treated so cruelly?"

  However, this blond young man was not a fuel-efficient lamp. After a burst of wailing, he actually stabbed the dagger in his left hand towards Li Yan's abdomen!

  At this moment, Li Yan grabbed the right hand of the yellow-haired young man, and the distance between them was extremely close. The yellow-haired young man felt his bones crack after feeling his hand break, and he became even more anxious, with red eyes. This knife moved extremely fast, with great power!

  "Be careful!" Lin Xiaoyun shouted anxiously, but it seemed like it was already a bit too late.

  The onlookers around also couldn't help but close their eyes at this time, afraid of seeing a scary scene. However, not one person was willing to step forward and lend a hand.

  The young man with yellow hair had a painful and distorted face, but suddenly a ferocious smile appeared on his face. In his opinion, this knife would definitely pierce the belly of the idiot in front of him, and then his knife would stir up a stir inside, making this meddling kid drink a pot!

  But just as the blond young man was secretly pleased with himself and thinking about how he should slip away and temporarily hide in his hometown friend's place to avoid the storm, suddenly, the blond young man felt that the dagger in his left hand had stopped moving!

  "What's going on with the grass mud horse?" The young man with yellow hair was stunned for a moment, and then he cast his eyes on his dagger. Immediately following that, he saw an unbelievable scene.

  Within sight, only two fingers were seen, firmly pinching the blade of the dagger. As a result, the dagger was unable to move forward under the obstruction of infinite force. Moreover, the owner of these two fingers was none other than that ignorant, arrogant, and nosy person in his eyes.

  "What the...?! This is impossible! It's not scientific!" For a moment, the blond young man couldn't help but be stunned, his eyes wide with incredulity. The look in his eyes was as if he had been struck dumb, and it was really hard for him to imagine that at such close range, with such great power and speed, he hadn't injured his opponent, and instead, his dagger had been caught by the other's two fingers! This was simply too unreasonable!

  At this time, the crowd around also opened their eyes, but they did not see Li Yan falling to the ground with a knife as imagined. On the contrary, the thief's dagger was intercepted by Li Yan in an almost unbelievable way.

  "Heavens! This person can't be some legendary martial arts master, can he?!" Someone in the crowd couldn't help but exclaim.

  After all, the scene just now was seen by everyone. For ordinary people, at such a close distance, with such power and speed, it is absolutely impossible to dodge this knife in a hurry! However, the young man in front of him did it, and not only simply dodged, but also intercepted the thief's dagger!

  Of course, unfortunately, Li Yan is not a legendary martial arts master, but unfortunately, Li Yan is not an ordinary person either. He is a cultivator, a powerful being who has already surpassed the strength of a three-tribulation scattered immortal despite having only passed through one tribulation. Even powerful beings like Jin Peng Yao Wang and Huanghe Shuishen Dou Niu Xingzuo were defeated and suppressed by Li Yan, let alone a small thief like you?

  However, these things were destined to be unknown to this blond young man; otherwise, he would not have voluntarily suffered so much in front of Li Yan.

  But now, the situation is that the yellow-haired youth can't do anything else. Li Yan's hand, which was holding the dagger, hesitated for a moment before quickly striking the yellow-haired youth's wrist. The yellow-haired youth let out a pained cry as his wrist dislocated, and he could no longer hold onto the dagger. It fell to the ground with a "clatter".

  Who would have thought, at this moment, the yellow-haired youth suddenly shouted: "Ah! Someone's coming! Come quickly! Someone wants to kill with a knife! Save me!"
