...
As soon as Yan Xiaobao saw it, a cold wind brushed against his back, and he realized that he had been in a daze for quite so ti. However, his stomach was still complaining, so he decided to visit two other chicken farms to see if there was still an opportunity to take action.
He wandered the mountain paths, cautiously looking around to ensure he wasn't being followed. His expression was very serious as he contemplated how to steal chickens from the next farm. With the wind blowing, it wrapped around the ribbon on his arm.
anwhile, in the pitch-dark night sky, a woman stood on a piece of blue silk, completely undetected by everyone below as she inspected this part of Xiangyun Peak. Suddenly, when she saw Yan Xiaobao walking along, cautiously surveying his surroundings, her expression flickered. Her eyes gradually began to show approval.
"This little disciple really takes his duties seriously." Of course, the woman was Zhou Xinqi, who had been checking the area. Earlier, many disciples were on patrol, but as night fell, most had returned to cultivate. Yan Xiaobao was the only one genuinely trying to catch the thief.
"With him around, the chicken thief will surely have to watch out." Zhou Xinqi turned around and then returned to her Immortal Cave, feeling much better about the situation.
Two hours later, Yan Xiaobao circled back to his courtyard dwelling. After entering, he patted his travel bag and produced two Spirit Tail Chickens. He chuckled to himself, yanking them up and tossing them into the pot. Before long, the aroma filled the air, making his mouth water with desire. Then, he gobbled them up greedily without even waiting for them to cool.
Finally, he belched, patted his belly, and relaxed, looking quite satisfied, as if he was almost drunk.
A month later, during which Yan Xiaobao diligently went out at night and appeared very solemn because he randomly showed up at various chicken farms.
Nevertheless, the chickens kept disappearing. They seed to vanish without a trace, a profound mystery. The disciples at the chicken farms increasingly felt they had lost face. Fueled by passion, they continuously vowed not to give up until the chicken thief was imprisoned.
Yan Xiaobao seed to take the matter more seriously than them. He was utterly dedicated to protecting the chicken farms, as if he was unwilling to rest until the thief was caught. He even once guarded a chicken farm for four days and nights.
The hard work and dedication seed to put a lot of pressure on the chicken thief, and the theft rate appeared to have decreased. However, the thief hadn't completely vanished. In the end, nearly half of the Elf-tailed Chickens on Xiangyun Peak had disappeared, leaving only the young ones behind.
Eventually, even the disciples at the chicken farms began to feel guilty, reflecting with emotion. They believed that if the other chicken thief task forces were as diligent as Brother Bai, then the thief would certainly have been caught.
Zhou Xinqi was particularly anxious. One afternoon, Yan Xiaobao sat cross-legged at one of the chicken farms, vigilantly surveying his surroundings, and a piece of blue silk descended from above; it was Zhou Xinqi.
Seeing who it was, Yan Xiaobao charmingly called out, "Sister Zhou."
As Zhou Xinqi's beautiful eyes fell upon Yan Xiaobao, she smiled and said, "You're working hard, Brother Bai."
Soon, other disciples in the area flocked towards them, gathering around Zhou Xinqi and Yan Xiaobao.
"Ladies and gentlen, I recently express my deep gratitude for your assistance," she said softly. "I am truly grateful. However, the chicken thief remains as shaless as ever. Therefore, I will stand guard with you." After observing the group, she slightly frowned and continued, "I wonder if the chicken thief is linked to my master. Otherwise, why doesn't he steal Spirit Tail Chickens from other peaks? Instead, he seems to be targeting only my master's chickens!"
When Yan Xiaobao heard this, his eyes began to shine, and he almost slapped his thigh. What Zhou Xinqi said made sense, and as he thought about it, he couldn't help but gaze down toward Violet Peak's direction. Slowly, his eyes narrowed, hiding the deep cunning gleam.
Now that Zhou Xinqi had made an appearance, many of her admirers also began flocking to the area. Soon, a large crowd gathered at the Spirit Tail Chicken Farm of Xiangyun Peak.
The chicken thief could no longer do anything, and in the following days, not a single Spirit Tail Chicken was lost.
Even so, the mysterious and unfathomable chicken thief had beco completely famous. In fact, many people began calling him the Chicken Stealing Demon. He caused such a stir among the disciples that he was regarded as ranking alongside the master of Little Turtle, becoming one of the most mysterious figures on Xiangyun Peak. In fact, even the Outer Sect disciples at Green Crest Peak and Violet Cauldron Peak had heard of him.
Since the chicken thief had evidently disappeared, Zhou Xinqi felt much better. Although he was never apprehended, when she thought about how hard Yan Xiaobao worked over the past month or more, in the end, she rewarded him with a jade pendant as an encouragent.
When the matter finally ended, Yan Xiaobao's sincerity and dedication made the different Outer Sect disciples realize how pure, charming, and dedicated he was. Yan Xiaobao sat in the courtyard of Xiangyun Peak, looking at the jade pendant in his hand. After activating it with so spiritual energy, the pendant began to emit a soft green glow, surrounding his body.
