The thief panicked!
He didn't expect Mo Ruyue to still be here!
The thief's eyes were filled with determination as he decided to knock Mo Ruyue down. However, he did not expect that Mo Ruyue was actually hiding something. This seemingly weak and pretty girl was actually a martial artist!
He had only exchanged a few moves with Mo Ruyue, but he had never seen her in such a way. He did not want to overthink it.
After a few more breaths of time, Gu Ying and the soldiers arrived.
He gave Mo Ruyue a vicious slap and wanted to run back, but Gu Ying and the soldiers had already caught up and were about to get on the bridge.
Then, he saw a group of soldiers approaching from behind Mo Ruyue. There was no way out on either side.
Seeing that the situation was not looking good, the thief gave Mo Ruyue a final blow and jumped off the bridge into the water.
