In the next second, Su Shi'er's pupils suddenly contracted.
Dozens of massive fireballs came hurtling from all directions.
These fireballs were incredibly fast, appearing without any warning, giving him no chance to react.
"Not good!"
Su Shi'er inwardly exclaimed that something was amiss. Without a second thought, he summoned the wind, transforming into a whirlwind that carried him upward, soaring into the sky.
"Boom!"
In the next second, a loud explosion erupted.
A shocking storm of spiritual power swept across the area.
While in mid-air, Su Shi'er looked down and felt his scalp tingle, his eyelids twitching wildly.
If he had been hit by such an attack, he would undoubtedly have died!
"Who is it that ambushed me in this place?!"
"Luckily, I was cautious enough; otherwise, I wouldn't even know how I died!"
Thoughts raced through his mind, and Su Shi'er didn't dare waste any time. As soon as he dodged the attack, his figure drifted away into the distance.
Before landing, he stepped on the trees in the forest, sprinting in the direction away from the Cloud Song Sect.
He knew very well that such a massive attack from all directions was impossible for just one person to execute.
No matter who the opponent was, the best strategy at this moment was to escape!
And since the opponent set up an ambush here, any ordinary disciple encountering danger would think of seeking help from the sect.
But since these people came with the determination to kill him, there's no guarantee they wouldn't have arranged others behind them.
The best solution was to get far away from the sect!
As Su Shi'er fled, more than a dozen figures emerged from the forest.
The leading blue-robed cultivator with a square face looked surprised and said, "What? Wasn't it said that this kid was just a Qi Refining stage three novice? How is he at Qi Refining stage seven?!"
"No wonder Senior Brother Ye insisted we all come together; he must have known this guy's strength was unusual!"
The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement.
The square-faced blue-robed cultivator muttered, staring at Su Shi'er's retreating figure without hurriedly giving chase.
Beside him, a round-faced, chubby cultivator sneered, "Hmph! This kid has been completing various tasks for half a year, many of which are obviously impossible for someone at Qi Refining stage three to accomplish."
"Anyone could tell there's something fishy going on! Lu Tao, your reaction is too slow, isn't it?!"
"You fatso, are you looking for trouble?!" The square-faced cultivator glared, shouting irritably.
"Don't, I don't have time to bicker with you!" The round-faced chubby cultivator rolled his eyes, shrugged, and said, "Isn't this kid like a rabbit, running so fast?!"
"Tch, can he escape? Senior Brother Ye, with his brilliant strategy, has already led Zhu Wenqi and others to wait for him in the direction away from the sect!" The square-faced blue-robed cultivator sneered, his eyes flashing with confidence.
"Senior Brother Ye's cunning is indeed impressive, worthy of being the Peak Lord's disciple."
"But, are you sure you don't want to hurry and chase? If you delay Senior Brother Ye's plans, you won't have a good outcome!" The round-faced chubby cultivator squinted, speaking indifferently.
Only then did the square-faced blue-robed cultivator say, "You're right, let's not waste time. Quickly catch up to avoid any changes in the situation!"
With that, the two walked side by side, leading people to chase after Su Shi'er.
Unaware of what was happening behind him, Su Shi'er faced the sudden ambush without daring to be careless. He expended nearly half of his True Essence in one breath, leaping and bounding, already hundreds of meters away.
He didn't dare to exhaust all his True Essence in one go, quickly landing and using the Shadowless Phantom Steps to hurry on.
However, just as he landed.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
In the forest, dozens of ice spikes came hurtling towards him.
"Not good! I've encountered an opponent!"
Su Shi'er's heart trembled, immediately realizing that his caution had still fallen into the opponent's calculations.
Without thinking, he flung a handful of defensive talismans while simultaneously activating the Ice Shield in front of him.
Walls of earth, stone, and ice formed in front of him, but were shattered in an instant.
However, this round of attacks was clearly not as intense as before.
The ice spike attacks met the Ice Shield and dissipated in the explosion of spiritual power.
Then, a strange fragrance wafted over, and thirteen disciples at Qi Refining stage six and seven appeared, quickly surrounding Su Shi'er.
"It's him?!"
Su Shi'er's pupils contracted as he immediately looked at the person directly in front of him.
That person wore a red robe with mysterious cloud-patterned sleeves, beneath slender phoenix eyes lay two cold, arrogant thin lips.
His arrogance was like an unsheathed treasured sword.
It was none other than the inner sect genius of Heavenly Splendor Peak, Ye Liangchuan.
"Ye Liangchuan, what do you mean by this?" Su Shi'er stared at him, immediately asking.
Ye Liangchuan looked indifferent, expressionless as he snorted at Su Shi'er, "What do I mean? You stole from our Heavenly Splendor Peak, and you ask me what I mean?"
Beside him, a man standing eight feet tall, with a jade-like face and delicate features, coldly snorted, glaring at Su Shi'er, "Kid, hand over all your resources, and considering we're from the same sect, we might spare your life. Otherwise... today, you have no way out but death!"
This man, clearly handsome, wore a floral-patterned long robe, painted red lips, and held a delicate orchid gesture, appearing extremely enchanting and sinister.
The unusually strong fragrance emanated from this person!
Su Shi'er frowned slightly, his gaze sweeping over this person, his heart highly alert.
Among these people, aside from Ye Liangchuan, this person gave him a sense of danger, like a venomous scorpion.
However, he ignored this person, still locking eyes with Ye Liangchuan.
"Steal from your Heavenly Splendor Peak? In the newcomer trial, it's all about skill and opportunity! Heavenly Splendor Peak is the largest peak in Cloud Song Sect, and yet... you can't afford to lose?" Su Shi'er sneered, retorting unceremoniously.
As he spoke, his eyes darted rapidly, looking for an opportunity to escape.
He wouldn't believe their nonsense; even if he handed over his resources, with so many people here, how could they possibly let him go?!
"Can't afford to lose? You're quite the sharp-tongued fellow, even more cunning than your Luofu Peak's genius, Han Yu, knowing how to hide your strength and keep a low profile!"
"But... this is a world where the strong prey on the weak. No matter how much you say, it won't change your situation today!"
"Since you're determined to die, I can only fulfill your wish."
Ye Liangchuan looked down at Su Shi'er with an expressionless face, his gaze condescending.
With a wave of his hand, a fiery red longsword appeared in his hand.
The longsword shimmered with golden light, its brilliance dazzling, clearly a top-grade ritual artifact of excellent quality.
With the sword in hand, the blade vibrated and hummed incessantly.
In the air, an invisible sword intent was released, enveloping Su Shi'er overwhelmingly.
