Chapter 12: Map to unknown places
The girl screamed frantically, grabbing for her skirt to cover her thighs. This dramatic development caught public's attention.
"You jerk. Lift your leg! Let go of my skirt!" The girl howled and glared at Wind. Wind however chuckled and scanned her petite figure by his frivolous gaze. The girl felt embarrassed to no end.
"Good lad! You caught that thief girl! Everyone! Quickly, surround her!" A man shouted. He was wearing guard uniform. His companions surrounded that girl & Wind.
"She is a thief?" Wind enquired.
"Yes. She stole a precious artifact from our shop. We spotted her but she used some movement technique to run off quickly!" the man explained.
"So that's it." Wind said and scrutinized the girl. "Level 4 Basic realm. Weak!" Wind thought. "And to have been using a movement technique means that she must have used up her entire chi before running into me. So that's why she was so easy to catch."
"Ah! She bumped into me! She could have stolen something from me too then!" Wind suddenly exclaimed.
"Ohh! Yes, that is a possibility. Quickly look if you are missing something." The guard suggested, but Wind shook his head.
"Too many things I had on me. Better if I search this thief instead and retrieve whatever she might have stolen from me." Wind said and grabbed the girl's wrist and pulled her closer, viciously.
"Yes, go ahead. We've got her surrounded. She can't run!" The man said.
Wind nodded and started searching and the first place he checked was…the girl's blouse!
"Aaahhn!!" The girl screamed in as Wind had directly grabbed her left breast & squeezed it. "You pervert! Let go of me!" she shouted.
"Ah? You thief dare slander me and make demands? All these gentlemen claim that you have stolen things. Then you bumped into me. I will definitely retrieve the stolen goods from you." Wind said and pulled her by her waist while his right hand openly groped her soft breasts in turns.
Then he whispered in her ear discreetly- "Play along and I will ensure that you don't get caught. I will take and keep the artifact until you come get it back from me later." He winked and his hand actually entered inside the girl's blouse, directly grabbing her soft breasts.
"Annh!!!! You jerk!" the girl moaned and shouted and the crowd went hot with this erotic scene unfolding before them. The crowd comprised of civilians while the men surrounding the girl were all carrying weapons. No one dared to object. Not that they minded this type of thorough checking anyway. It was a feast to the men's eyes.
Ignoring the girl's futile struggle, Wind thoroughly checked her body, groping her breasts and hips and left no place untouched. While doing so, he also started using Ian technique to tune the girl so although she screamed at first out of terror, she soon succumbed to this pleasing sensation rippling through her body from wherever Wind touched. Soon Wind's hand entered her black-pink panty and he inserted his middle finger inside the tight virgin vagina. The girl squeal and a gush of pure virgin yin chi leaked from her glory hole and wetted Wind's hand and this was happening in public!
Although the people could not see what exactly was happening inside the girl's panty, but seeing a hand enter it, was enough to let their imaginations run wild!
Soon, the girl collapsed on her knees panting heavily. She had been molested and yet, she liked it? She was angry and wanted to kill this boy in front of her, but her body was super excited and she felt dazed due to pleasure.
"Ah? She has nothing on her!" Wind exclaimed. "You folks witnessed it right? I searched everywhere but there is no artifact." He said loudly.
"What? Impossible!" The guard roared. "She is the thief! We have seen her stealing the artifact, with our own eyes. Let me check her." He said taking a long step forward.
"Yes-yes. Please check her again. Although I already checked every part on her body and clothes, and found nothing. But it cannot be that you are lying right?" Wind asked loudly making himself audible to everyone in public. "You can strip her naked and search thoroughly again. She has to be a thief because you said so."
"..." After a momentary silence the crowd went crazy in uproar. This was a blatant act of tyranny!
"You bastards! Taking advantage of a poor young girl!" Someone shouted.
"How dare you! Just because you have weapons, you think you can do anything?"
"Let's see how you dare strip her naked."
People yelled and lunged at the ring of men. A confused skirmish occurred. By the time that young thief girl regained her senses; she noticed that Wind was already gone. The boy, who molested her, took advantage of the commotion & had disappeared!
"Damn it! If I don't skin you alive, my name isn't Saiyu!" The girl growled. And then she realized something. "Wait, where is the artifact? W-where is my familial heirloom!!" She shouted and realized that all her precious items are missing. She panicked and quickly scanned through her surroundings. Soon she too disappeared in the crowd.

Meanwhile, Wind met up with Wu Shang again and the two of them rode off towards South Carny. Wind was studying one of the newly bought techniques while horse-riding. Royalties or nobles had innate talent at horsemanship. They could even battle easily while riding. & so, reading while horse-riding was easy for Wind.
He was reading the manual of 'Sword Dance technique'. The manual was divided into 3 chapters. 1st chapter was about the essential swordsmanship part of the technique. Wind skipped it without reading. The 2nd chapter was about movement technique and the 3rd chapter described all the special sword dance moves or skills. This chapter covered more than half of the manual. Wind decided to study the 2nd chapter for movement. Reason- If you are strong, then you can chase down anyone with movement technique. If you are weak, you can run away quickly from a stronger enemy. Movement speed guarantees survival and victory.
The movement part of the Sword Dance technique was rather explosive instead of nimble. It gave spurts of speed with each step taken. Wind studied through it for the entire day and ruminated over it. He would need to practice the movements to comprehend it entirely.
When it grew dark and they couldn't keep travelling, they camped on a hillock. There was soon a campfire and Wind was still studying the technique. In his past life he had only chased after skirts and even in this life, most of his time had been spent in dual cultivation. But Wind wanted to become a powerful cultivator to take his revenge. His enemy was at Emperor realm: the topmost realm in cultivation. Wind had a long way to go before he could catch up. Thus he devoted his travel time into studying the combat technique.
Few hours later, the flames had quieted down a bit. Wu Shang was asleep and Wind was checking two items placed in front of him. He had stolen these from Saiyu in the city market. One item was a square box with metal reeds around it. It looked rather crude and less like the 'artifact' it was claimed to be. He examined it for a long time but could not figure out what was the use of this artifact. As such, he simply placed it in his bag and looked at the other item. It was a round small wooden ball. The surface was smooth and there wasn't anything peculiar about the ball. He rolled it in his hand and then tapped on it. It sounded rather hollow. After giving various taps everywhere on it absently, the wooden ball suddenly split open in his palm, surprising Wind. There was a small white parchment folded squarely inside the ball which he took out and opened.
"It's a map…to unknown places." Wind muttered. He couldn't identify the places and landmarks drawn on the map. But he tried wrecking his brain over it for half an hour. He didn't know what the map was about and that made him curious but ultimately he could only sigh and place it in his pocket. He decided that he'll check Deodomus' library again once he returns home, to gain some clues about the map. The wooden ball had closed back mystically the moment the map was taken out of it. He placed the wooden ball inside the bag and then started practicing his sword dance technique's movement aspect for next few hours.
