The pickpocket looked smug. These three were foreigners—so even if caught red-handed for theft, it would be pointless. On the contrary, if he made the first move against them, they wouldn't have any recourse.
"Swish!"
As he spoke, the pickpocket lunged straight at Ye Tian, aiming directly for Ye Tian's eye!
Although one of his hands was being held by Ye Tian, the pickpocket's other hand had a dagger. No matter how strong Ye Tian was, he couldn't possibly counter a blade with brute force.
"Hmph!"
Facing the incoming dagger, Ye Tian remained composed and unmoving. Just as the dagger was about to strike him, Ye Tian suddenly pinched his fingers together, effortlessly catching the blade mid-air.
"What the...!"
The pickpocket was stunned. In his years of thieving, whenever caught, revealing a knife would always make the other party back off.
But this foreigner before him had casually stopped his dagger with just his fingers. Wasn't this something out of a movie?
