Chapter 2, Who Stole My Underwear

is not

The guards, having regained their composure, rushed forward anxiously, "My lord, how are you? What about that notorious thief..."

Oh. He smiled meaningfully, lightly descending from the tree. With a wave of his hand, the clothes stacked to one side fell at his feet

Tai Shi Lan immediately turned and ran wildly. In the distance, shadows flickered, and golden armor moved as the guards, having heard the commotion, rushed over. From afar, they saw their "master" running over, "covered in blood," and were greatly alarmed.

Tai Shi Lan listened to the sound of the wind, which surprisingly seemed to come from the water in the river beneath the grassy slope. The sharpness sliced through the air with a hissing sound, like a flying sword controlling the heavens. She raised an eyebrow—was it that person from the river who had nearly become a beggar's chicken? But just a moment ago, she clearly saw that he had no weapons

The person across from me is crystal clear, with light refracting around them. Behind them, the flowering trees with their emerald leaves flutter in the wind, creating an image akin to a jade figure adorned with a pair of green wings, exuding a breathtaking beauty

Return to the master, there is none

A white shadow flashed, and the retreating figure moved as swiftly as a whirlwind. The wild grass by the shore swayed at an angle, tossed about by the gust, creating a chaotic scene. With a splash, someone fell back into the water again

Before a thought could fully form, a flash of snowlight appeared at the end of the dark sky, and the sword had already pursued it. The wind was too fierce; upon turning back, Taishi Lan clearly saw the horse's tail rise, a burst of pure white, and then the sword energy swept past.

The birdman with wings on the tree remained still, gazing at her silhouette, his expression contemplative.

Ah

At this moment of warm spring, with no ice in the river, it is this person who, using internal energy, has condensed ice to form the ice sword from earlier and the ice attire now.

With a startled cry, the birdman waved his hand casually, and the unfortunate guard was sent tumbling out, splashing into the river with a resounding thud, sending water soaring three zhang high

The guard lowered his head awkwardly, thinking that the silk undergarments pressed down by your jade belt hook were also gone

Tai Shi Lan suddenly reached out, his fingers meeting the tip of the sword

His unparalleled skill in the Southern Qi is rarely matched in this world, which is why even he could not comprehend how this sword could suddenly "disappear"

The person in the tree remained indifferent to the large pile of damaged gold, silver, and jade artifacts, not even glancing at the fragments brought by the guards. Instead, he gazed in the direction where the Grand Historian had departed and casually asked, "The sachet of fragrant herbs and the *books* on that horse, they were not taken down, were they?"

That seems to be an ice sword formed from frozen water

The sword has vanished

This will surely ignite, and the most precious "beggar's chicken" of the Southern Qi will thus be born

Leaving right after arriving, isn't that rather impolite? Suddenly, a voice filled with laughter echoed, followed by a gust of wind that howled like a cry. A beam of crystal light shot out from beneath the grassy slope, instantly covering dozens of yards, directly targeting the horse that Tai Shi Lan was frantically riding out.

A fleeting glance is all it was

Tai Shi Lan had never seen or imagined such a miraculous scene in the world, but her greatest advantage was her calmness. Even the most tremendous danger could only elicit a nonchalant blink from her. Thus, she blinked, and suddenly realized that the sword was thin, sharp, and transparent, lacking the imagined hilt and guard!

The voice is short and crisp

Including the person who transformed river water into an ice sword and wielded it

She aims to seize him and compel him to hand over his secret manual

Tai Shi Lan's lips curled downwards, the arc cold and disdainful—indeed, those with wings are not only angels, but also birdmen

Let's go!

However, it is better not to report this...

A profound silence enveloped the surroundings, leaving everyone in a state of astonishment. This scene was so far beyond human imagination that people temporarily lost their ability to speak and act

The guards jumped off their horses one after another. Tai Shi Lan raised his hand, and the fire stick flickered to life, a spark flashed, darting through the grass and landing beneath the horse's legs

The sword energy had not yet arrived, but it had already destroyed the horse's tail. A chilling aura sliced through the skin and tore at the muscles, about to land on her back!

Several guards hurriedly surveyed the surroundings and counted the scattered items on the ground. Finally, with pale faces, they stepped forward to report, "My lord, twelve items of gold and silver, including a golden soap box and an amber bead necklace, have been lost, ten jade plates have been smashed, and three finger rings have been crushed..." They reported a long list of losses, and only at the end did one of them vaguely add, "Also... your jade belt hook is missing..."

The person with sparkling brilliance stood alone in the tree, watching the direction in which Taishi Lan fled

The horse galloped away, and in that moment, everyone was taken aback, unable to pursue it in an instant

At this smile, Taishi Lan's eyes narrowed, and without a word, he kicked the horse's belly

Indeed, not long after, a low "Hmm?" was heard, with the intonation rising at the end, carrying both a sense of inquiry and anger

With a soft sound, almost instantaneously, the unmatched sharp sword, carrying boundless chill, pierced through Tai Shi Lan's skin, and a touch of fresh blood splattered, as vibrant as the red plum blossom, penetrating to the bone

The chilling cold sent a shiver through Taishi Lan's entire body, causing her face to turn pale. However, she showed no hesitation; with a firm grip, she clasped the sword's body and shouted, "Restore!"

That cluster of beautiful ponytails, spreading out in a fluffy manner, transforms into countless snow-white strands, like the soft dandelions on a spring night, scattering with a swish.

The steed neighed long and loud, raising its hooves to leap across, in an instant covering several zhang. With its head lowered, it controlled the horse, preparing to catch the guards off guard. Raising its head, it stared in astonishment at the soon-to-escape Tai Shi Lan.

In a daze, the birdman with shimmering light kept staring at her from such a distance that it seemed he could see her expression, the corners of her lips twitching into a slight smile

Tai Shi Lan raised his head and saw that person. On a spring night with a gentle breeze, the jade-like green trees adorned the landscape. That person was perched on a tree at the edge of a distant grassy slope. It seemed he still preferred not to wear anyone else's clothes, as he had chased out in the nude. However, his body shimmered with a dazzling light, blinding the eyes and making it impossible to discern any significant parts. Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that he had actually covered himself with ice to protect his three points.

This extraordinary idea, swiftly responding to mhetushu.com, along with exceptional martial arts skills, caused a blazing light to surge in Tai Shi Lan's eyes.

The beautiful maid approached, the sound of her garments rustling echoed, and everyone lowered their heads, holding their breath, the atmosphere tense.

Tai Shi Lan lowered his head and charged forward, shouting, "There are formidable enemies behind! The notorious beggar thief known as the 'Beggar Chicken' is here, quickly set up a formation to intercept!"

Tonight, I must attend the banquet hosted by the governor of Anzhou; I will change my clothes first

A more abrupt and concise sound is that of a sword shattering

In almost an instant, that transparent sword, sharp enough to cleave even gods and spirits, suddenly began to turn white, emit smoke, and shatter, followed by a faint cracking sound, transforming into a pool of clear water that flowed down from Tai Shi Lan's fingertips.

The horse was immediately startled, rearing and jumping wildly, causing the surrounding horses to become agitated and fall into chaos. The guards were unaware of what was happening, repeatedly shouting and trying to restrain them. Tai Shilan had already rushed to the nearest horse, throwing a box onto it with a loud thud. He lifted his leg and jumped onto the horse, giving it a hard slap on the rear, "Go!"

The water-colored pink, because it was soaked in the blood of Taishi Lan's palm

Who stole my underwear

She also aims to forge ice into a sword, to take the heads of people from a thousand miles away. Who dares to pursue her? For every one she encounters, she will cut one; for every two, she will cut a pair
