Chapter 267 - Ambush

Suan Yi's wound was in the process of healing. It was also the time that he needed to report to the sect of his whereabouts these past days. All of it, he will report except for the fact that his martial brother was the one who inflicted the wounds of his chest.

He didn't have proof on his sleeve. Slowly... he just needed time to conduct his deep investigation on the matter. 

"Suan Yi..." Suan Yi's old master live up to his expectation of an old sage with a grizzled beard that almost reached the ground. He was wearing a combination of white and sky blue patterned robe and a strip of cloth wrapped on his forehead.

Overall, the old man exudes an almighty and holy aura worthy of being called the Master of the Sect!

"This disciple is audacious to leave the sect grounds and explore the other regions without prior notice to the sect. Now, this disciple is in shame for the result that had come in the end. 'Curiosity kills the cat' but this disciple didn't die and yet had survived if not for fellow cultivators, noticing my shabby and pitiful appearance back then."

The old master was played by Master Tang. Not only in martial arts and in sword skills that the old man excel. His acting was also immeasurable.

"Speak child, this master will not be lenient to those who made this to you. Who is it?"

"Master... there is a traitor in this sect--"

Suan Yi wasn't able to finish his sentence when a flying sword out of nowhere rush just on Suan Yi's position. Suan Yi, with a depth and flexibility, escaped the tragedy by stepping to the sideline. The sword had only scr.a.p.ed a little of his arms and nothing else.

Soon, the shout of panic and fear of disciples echoed to the air. " There is an evil cultivator nearby! Hacking the Sect Master's disciple openly and straight on. Someone powerful is behind the shadows, everyone on your formation!"

Su Ci Yi and the others formed a circle inside a magic array bound by each and everyone's spiritual energy. She was familiar with the formation they were going to form. Although she was baffled how could a mere figment of imagination from the writers of this drama be coincidental and almost the same ritual and array on her sect!

As the script suggested there should be an ambush of evil cultivators who infiltrated the sect. This was due to Suan Yi's fast recovery that they needed to act fast. The man is alive and who knows, if he spilled the beans - the mole that they planted will be determined. 

A series of black robe people appeared in the sky. The sky-blue horizon was immediately filled with mottled shadows of the cultivators of the reverse path.

The Thousand Blooming sect readied their stance and anytime would immediately engage in a blood bath fighting if necessary.

Suan Yi's master dragged him behind.

"You have an injury. Go and recuperate in the outhouse. We will settle everything here." Suan Yi heard his master's instruction. But Suan Yi insisted on partaking in the battle. His wounds are almost healed and it seemed he already familiarized the cultivation core of this person.

"This disciple will stay." Suan Yi's final decision.

His master only sighs. " I will beat you to death if you die on this ground. This master will not bury your corporeal body and will let your soul scatter on the 8th depth of eternal hell."

His master threatened him, yet he could feel his indulgence.

Suan Yi only smiles.

Coincidentally, his gaze turned to Meng Ya from afar. The woman was focused on the newly arrived evil cultivators.

Su Ci Yi was positioned near Meng Ya. When she saw a bunch of cosplaying evil cultivators, she felt that something was amiss in the scenario. But before Su Ci Yi could pinpoint what was wrong, those evil cultivators shouted and directly attacked them.

Sounds of clashing swords and heavy pantings were heard. Like it was real, there was also a fake littered of blood on the floor.

The actors they hire to be an evil cultivator were all professional martial artists and had a foundation in swordsmanship. These skills were behind Su Ci Yi and her natural agility and speed excels among the rest.

Even the director saw this and felt surreal.

Su Ci Yi was like only playing with them, after all, they were human...

No, there was someone who went on par with Su Ci Yi's strength just right now. Even she, herself was quite baffled. Su Ci Yi's fake sword even broke from the clash of that cultivator, and she was rendered defenseless. No one knew the situation because the hall was filled with clashing men and she was stationed in the middle.

Without further ado, in the attempt to go out and be noticed, that same person even chased her. Su Ci Yi could only dodge her swords but cannot go against her because she has nothing. They play mouse and cat where Su Ci Yi is the runaway mouse. She didn't want to hurt these people since she is human after all, so she will just run away from her...

Su Ci Yi's eyes bulge in realization.

She stopped running forward and turn 180 degrees towards that person. If this isn't what she's thinking...

Su Ci Yi faced that cultivator head one. With her only one hand, she blocked the sword that would directly pierce her stomach. A gush of blood appeared and overflowed on the dried ground. Fresh blood. Not the one that is made of ketchup and littered on the floor.

Someone notice the scenario and shouted. Making Su Ci Yi holding the sword with her bloody hands and the person handling the sword became the center of attraction.

"Cut!" The director shouted in panic. Even Ling Mo turned pale, seeing a lot of blood on her hands. 

"Cut! Stop it!" Still, the director was shouting, yet that person remained motionless and tried to pierce through her.

Su Ci Yi's smile widened and the two frontal white teeth showed up. It was a smile, yet wasn't. Even the director felt chills when she saw Su Ci Yi smile at that bloody situation.

Su Ci Yi didn't mind the commotion and named the perpetrator who hides under the guise of those actors. Her eyes glinted sharply as she would pounce on the person in front of her any moment. Her voice wasn't loud but can be heard by the person in front,

" Looks like you stop hiding and confront me? Tell me, where did you have the guts to do this action, huh? Xiang Momo?"
