Chapter 17 Damsel in Distress

"This food looks quite good." Yun Zhu said as he gazed at Yang Yu, in front of him were many kinds of dishes. 'Well for most of my life I haven't eaten that well, so I've decided to eat as much as I like on my break.' Yang Yu thought as he wolfed down some of the food.

"Of course, enjoy it." Yun Zhu said as he sat opposite Yang Yu. It was always odd to Yang Yu, that he could see Yun Zhu but others couldn't, but at this point he just accepted it.

As he ate his food, soon a ruckus began. "Pretty lady, why don't you come with me?" A young man said as he and his bozos surrounded a woman. "No thank you." The woman said as she continued eating her food.

Her looks were definitely above average, her eyes clear and her body developed in the areas it should be, but apart from that she looked plain. 'Well, good luck to her.' Yang Yu thought as he continued eating.

As a new disciple, it wasn't his job to police those older than himself, especially if the other disciples wouldn't stand up to help either. 'Anyway, its not that bad, its just some verbal harassment.' Yang Yu thought as he continued with his meal.

The young man, soon got louder and louder, and soon he even began to piss Yang Yu off. The other customers began to get annoyed at him too, but no one dared to move. From the surrounding whispers Yang Yu could make out why.

He was Su Huang, ranked 8th in the Outer Disciples, his strength was formidable and he was infinitely close to the 1st Stage of Qi Refinement.

'They say that the top few Outer Disciples have already reached the 1st Stage Qi Refinement and are ready to challenge the Inner Disciples, but some rumour flying around are saying that the Inner Disciple limit will be increasing by about 50.' Yang Yu thought as he gazed at Su Huang.

One had to know that among the disciples of Sky Spirit Sect, there was barely anyone over the age of 20, nearly no one over the age of 30, Yang Yu didn't know why but he had a few theories.

'Back when I was younger, I remember hearing words of a mass recruitment done by the Sky Spirit Sect, which would explain why there are so many Outer Disciples who aren't that strong, but why the mass recruitment?' Yang Yu thought but couldn't understand.

His thoughts were soon interrupted though, as Su Huang's arrogant shouting reached his ears yet again. Simultaneously Yang Yu had just finished his meal, and placed the money to pay for it onto the table before getting up and approaching Su Huang.

As he did so no one took notice, they just simply thought Yang Yu was leaving, when he bumped into Su Huang. "Eh, what was that, you little shit?" Su Huang said as Yang Yu edged back while putting his hands in front of himself.

"Sorry, that was my fault I was too enraptured by your majesty and accidentally knocked into you, please accept my apology dear senior." Yang Yu said as he bowed towards Su Huang.

"Hmph! Move along, piece of shit." Su Huang said as Yang Yu turned around and walked out of the restaurant. No one said a word as he walked out of the door.

'Good thing I wore my old robes.' Yang Yu thought as he felt the pouch at his waist, before placing it inside the Crimson Steel Ring.

Although no one had noticed, not even Su Huang himself, Yang Yu has stolen his pouch filled with his money just as he bumped into him. This would surely be a gut wrenching blow when he realised he lost all of his hard earned money.

'Hah, being a thief for so long was worth it.' Yang Yu thought as he grinned. 'These robes are getting small for me though.' He thought as he pulled at the robes a bit, feeling constricted.

As Yang Yu walked away, Su Huang was still causing troubles for the woman, and eventually he noticed something. "Where is my pouch?" He said to himself as he looked around.

"Who took MY pouch!?" He questioned as he turned around and looked at the people in the restaurant. 'Inside my pouch I had about 10 spirit stones, how did I lose it!? No, WHO took it?!' Su Huang thought immensely annoyed.

"You, wench! Did you steal my pouch!?" Su Huang shouted as the woman had enough. Immediately she slammed the table and stood up staring fiercely at Su Huang. "So first, you harass me whenever you see me, and now not only that, but you accuse me of not only stealing, but you call me a wench! At first I didn't want to blow things out of proportion, but I have had enough! With everyone here as my witness I will request an audience with Elder Qing and have you jailed!" The woman said as she pushed through Su Huang's lackies and stormed off in a rage.

Seeing this Su Huang immediately gulped down hard. "I am fucked." He said as his face paled. Normally no one would call Elder Qing over a dispute, but now he had taken things too far and the woman was raging. Not only that, but he had no defence for his actions.

"FUCK!!!" He screamed as he slammed his fist on the table shattering it into multiple pieces, the debris damaging more of the restaurants furniture. "Sir, you're going to have to pay for that." A waiter said as Su Huang looked at him furiously, but the waiter didn't back down.

"If you want to be difficult I can call the boss, but if the boss comes down you're not going to have fun." The waiter said as Su Huang's face paled even more, at this point one couldn't tell his face apart from a blank sheet of paper.

'If I find who stole my pouch, I don't know how, but I WILL kill them!' Su Huang thought as he forced one of his thugs to pay for damages before storming off. No matter where he went though, he knew he couldn't escape his fate of being caught and jailed.

As this occurred Yang Yu rode on Xiao Lei as they flew towards his home. "Hah, that fool was carrying 10 Spirit Stones on him!" Yang Yu said in delight as he looked through the pouch.

"I pity him, but his loss is my gain." Yang Yu said as he put the pouch into the Crimson Steel Ring. "Hah, serves that shit head right, he doesn't even know how to treat a lady right, he deserved it." Yun Zhu chimed in as Yang Yu looked at him weirdly.

"Why would you care about that random woman?" Yang Yu asked in confusion. "Ah, you'll understand when you grow up." Yun Zhu said as he shook his head in disappointment.
