The next morning.
A layer of fish-belly white appeared in the distant sky, and a faint fragrance permeated the air.
However, amidst this beautiful morning scene.
Major businesses and even large families in Soto City were in an uproar.
"Boss, Boss, fifty million Gold Soul Coins were stolen from our treasury!" a subordinate employee reported.
"That's right, that's right, even other businesses haven't been spared."
"And the amount stolen is always fifty million Gold Soul Coins."
"Even the private treasury of Soto City Lord's mansion was robbed."
"No, there's something worse. I heard the Great Soul Arena's balance is down to less than two million Gold Soul Coins."
"What! The Great Soul Arena got robbed too?"
Throughout Soto City, cries of alarm echoed, and some people were even cursing in public, dragging their ancestors through the mud.
At this moment, inside the City Lord's Mansion,
"Kaito Kid? This little thief is too arrogant!" Soto City Lord Orion Pax held a white calling card in his hand, bearing the words 'Kaito Kid was here.'
This meant…
Wukong had sent a warning letter a few days ago, but they hadn't taken it seriously. Serves them right.
"And this Catwoman, what's her background?" Orion Pax looked at another purple warning letter on the table, and his anger grew.
"Reporting to the City Lord, it seems she came with Kaito Kid to raid the treasury."
"What? They dare to operate as a gang? Do they think there's no one in Soto City?" The Soto City Lord slammed his fist on the table in anger.
The sandalwood table instantly shattered into pieces. As the granary of the entire Fasnuo Province, the Soto City Lord needed to possess the strength of a Soul Emperor.
"Immediately issue a bounty notice! Alive or dead, I want them!"
The Soto City Lord looked nervous and a little afraid. That money was stolen goods, used by others to bribe him, the city lord.
If the Empire found out, he would be stripped of his position.
In a small forest path outside Soto City.
A man and a woman were walking hand in hand on the road.
"Wukong, do you think we went too far with this?" the purple-clothed girl asked the orange-clothed boy.
"Too far? Heh, I only rob the rich to help the poor. If it's a good family, I wouldn't steal from them. But the Great Soul Arena, the City Lord's Mansion, and those other forces, the money they have is all ill-gotten gains."
"I investigated beforehand. Some of it was even taken from ordinary people."
"And you think this is too far? We're just giving them the punishment they deserve."
"We'll find a chance to return everything to those people later."
"Okay, I understand," the purple-clothed girl replied.
These two were none other than Zhu Zhuqing and Sun Wukong, who had stolen from the entire Soto City last night.
After they finished their business last night, Zhu Zhuqing, miraculously, didn't feel tired at all; she was actually a bit excited.
It wasn't that Sun Wukong couldn't handle it; he was simply astonished.
The Revival Lotus Seed seemed to have tempered Zhu Zhuqing's body, elevating her soul.
As a result, her physical attributes alone were now several levels stronger than a Soul King.
System-produced items were always top-notch! No problem there.
While Sun Wukong was pondering this, he suddenly remembered his Phantom Thief identity.
So, he dragged the energetic Zhu Zhuqing out to play at thievery.
And even gave the girl a very flashy name: "Catwoman."
At first, Zhu Zhuqing refused. After all, this was Soto City, and a Soul Sage-level expert could easily show up. Moreover, Sun Wukong's level and abilities had been weakened.
She was truly afraid that Sun Wukong would get into trouble again.
Until, Sun Wukong took out the Heirloom Seal of the Realm, which had been gathering dust at the deepest part of his storage ring Soul Tool.
(Seal: "You son of a...!")
He explained to Zhu Zhuqing that he had stolen it six years ago, and only then did the little girl feel relieved.
If he could steal the Heirloom Seal of the Realm from the heavily guarded Star Luo Imperial Palace six years ago, then there was no need to say anything about the present.
After knowing this, the two of them each wore white and purple clothes.
One had a Prajna mask, and the other wore a cat face mask.
Anyone who didn't know would think they were cosplaying in the middle of the night.
The two of them walked and joked, looking affectionate, and at this time, Zhu Zhuqing was also very different from the original story. Although she was still cold as ice to outsiders, to Sun Wukong, she was already a little girl who had completely unleashed her nature.
They walked to the entrance of a village, and looking at the dilapidated buildings and designs around them, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but question it.
"This wouldn't be Shrek Academy, would it?"
Sun Wukong turned his head, smiled at Zhu Zhuqing, and replied, "Yes, you guessed it."
"This is the famous Shrek Academy."
Despite Sun Wukong's outward demeanor, he was cursing inwardly countless times.
"What is this place? I knew Shrek was short on funds, but I didn't expect them to be this broke."
In his previous life, Sun Wukong had read descriptions of Shrek Academy in the original Douluo Dalu novel, but seeing was believing. Today, he truly understood what "decrepit" meant.
While Sun Wukong was secretly complaining...
His powerful aura perception suddenly detected two very annoying auras.
"Ouch! They're here. I thought he'd run away," Sun Wukong said with a grin, his words laced with coldness.
"Who's here? Are you talking about those two from yesterday morning?" Zhu Zhuqing immediately thought of Xiao Wu and Tang San, whom she and Sun Wukong had taught a lesson the previous morning.
"Yep, that's right."
"I didn't think those two would dare to come back. Come on, let's go meet them."
With that, Sun Wukong took Zhu Zhuqing's hand and started walking towards the direction where Tang San and Xiao Wu's auras were emanating from.
If he wasn't mistaken, Tang San should have already created the Dragon Whisker Needles. He probably went to Flender's shop yesterday.
According to the original novel, the Dragon Whisker Needles were as thin as a strand of hair and had decent penetrating power. But, to think you'd dare to compare them to my 5.8mm bullets? As one of the most powerful penetrating bullets in the world, they can pierce through several meters of steel plates without any problem.
If I could only turn bullets into the shape of needles, heh, I could pierce through even better than you can.
However, Sun Wukong wasn't afraid of Tang San's hidden weapons. He was mainly worried about Zhu Zhuqing's safety, as her current physique might not be able to defend against them.
"Wait a moment, Zhuqing." Sun Wukong, holding Zhu Zhuqing's hand, suddenly stopped.
"What is it, Wukong?"
"Here, take this. It can help you defend yourself." Sun Wukong took out a Silenced Desert Eagle from his modern weapons stash.
"What's this?" Zhu Zhuqing stared at the new gadget in Sun Wukong's hand with wide eyes.
"This is called a handgun. Its name is Desert Eagle, and it has extremely strong penetrating power." Sun Wukong pointed the handgun at a large tree.
Whoosh!
He pulled the trigger, and the bullet shot out, piercing through several trees.
Zhu Zhuqing looked at the gun in Sun Wukong's hand with some disbelief.
"The power of this gun can injure a Soul Sage. If used properly, it can even kill a Soul Sage. It's a bit of a stretch against a Title Douluo."
"Here." Sun Wukong handed the Desert Eagle to Zhu Zhuqing, letting her try it out.
"Heavy?"
"No, it's quite light," Zhu Zhuqing replied.
"Oh."
Sun Wukong was overthinking it. In his original world, a normal person would find the Desert Eagle somewhat heavy, but this was a fantasy world. Being able to handle the weight was only natural.
