Chapter 864 - The Wrong Choice (1/2)

”Oh no! Brother Ge and the rest are in trouble!” Ma Xuantong exclaimed as he noticed the warning signal fired by Ge Xuanzhong.

”Hmph! A bunch of useless trash!” Ye Tianshun snorted.

”Everyone, hurry up!” Ma Xuantong led the group of Soaring Cloud Sect members to where the warning signal was fired. As the Sect Master, he could not ignore the plea for help sent by his disciples.

”I hope they are truly in serious trouble. If it's something unimportant, I will definitely punish them!” Ye Tianshun thought to himself. He had been quite unhappy with the disciples in the Soaring Cloud Sect for the past few days as they were obviously keen to seek help from Jiang Fei. Therefore, Ye Tianshun had been eager to teach them a lesson.

As Ge Xuanzhong and the others were located not too far from the mountain, Ma Xuantong and the rest got there very quickly.

”Hehe, your backup has arrived. We're leaving then!” A mysterious voice chuckled as all of the Scarlet Hunters disappeared.

”Brother Ge, what happened?” Ma Xuantong asked as he and the rest arrived.

”We were ambushed!” Ge Xuanzhong said.

”Ambushed? Who did it?” Ma Xuantong immediately asked. He was very nervous right now as the Soaring Cloud Sect was on their own. If they were found by the mutants, they would be outnumbered and annihilated with certainty.

”I'm not sure. We could not even see their faces clearly. They moved too fast!” Ge Xuanzhong said with a frown.

”Hmph! A bunch of useless fellows!” Ye Tianshun snorted.

”What are the losses?” Ma Xuantong asked.

”We lost six of our Level 3 disciples! No one else was hurt…” Ge Xuanzhong said. As there was not even a fight, no one else was injured apart from the disciples who were snatched away. However, the rest of the disciples all looked horrified from the close encounter.

”Six dead, but none injured?” Ye Tianshun frowned. He then asked wryly, ”Could you be making this up? I think the six disciples must have run away!”

”You…” Ge Xuanzhong was very upset right then. People like Ye Tianshun would end up ruining the entire Soaring Cloud Sect.

”What? Did I guess correctly?” Ye Tianshun became even more certain about his hypothesis after seeing Ge Xuanzhong's reaction.

”Sect Master, I think we should interrogate Ge Xuanzhong and find out where the six disciples had gone to!” Ye Tianshun turned around and said to Ma Xuantong.

”This…” Ma Xuantong frowned. Although they had lost six disciples, the other members seemed completely fine. Moreover, there was not a single trace of a fight. Although the circumstances appeared to fit Ye Tianshun's hypothesis, Ma Xuantong did not believe Ge Xuanzhong would come up with such a lie.

”Sect Master! I've found something!” Right then, a disciple in charge of scouting shouted loudly.
