Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Chapter 267 - Ambush!?



"The sect is organizing a Secret Mission, and this is the best chance for us to eliminate the remaining top disciples of the Gracious Sword Sect."

One of the disciples casually gave out the current biggest secret of the sect.

The disciple, with a rough voice, replied, "You just do your work. Don't come to me and give me advice. I know what to do."

The other disciples remained silent.

"Also, let me tell you one thing - I know you want to get out of the sect, but this is not going to happen pretty soon. After all, you're just a little pawn put here by them. You are destined to die here."

The other disciple remained silent.

Seeing no reaction from him, the disciple with a rough voice smirked, "Shu Xian, it's just a matter of time before Yuan Shuchun comes after you. She already knows it was you who arranged the assassination."

''What!?" The disciple beside him finally had some reaction.

Shock and a tinge of fear were written all over his face.

"What do you mean she knows? How could she know!?" Shu Xian almost shouted. His voice was filled with frustration and anger.

The disciple with the rough voice leaned back on his chair and put his hands behind his head.

He replied in a bit relaxed tone this time, "Well, the sect has been pretty calm for some time now, and I may or may not have spilled some beans while drunk."

"You-!" Shu Xian gritted his teeth.

Unfortunately, he had no control over anything and could only get up and leave.

Staring at the storming of Shu Xian, the disciple laughed, "Well, that was a good talk." And began to drink from the glass in front of him.

"Move, you fucking asshole!"

*bang!*

Everyone turned around to the commotion, only to find Shu Xian kicking an Outer Court disciple out of his way.

Many subconsciously took a step back.

In the Ninth Peak, confronting the angry Shu Xian was one of the worst things a disciple could do.

And looking at him right now, Shu Xian seemed quite angry. 

And he really was.

Shu Xian was more than just pissed off.

He wanted to kill someone. Only that could calm his anger.

'Why the fuck am I the scapegoat?' He couldn't help but grit his teeth at this thought.

Life had been really bad for him.

Born in a poor clan, taken in by the devil sect, tortured for years, and now sent to the enemy sect as the spy.

If this was not enough, his own sect abandoned him after using him.

'Are those guys idiots?' He couldn't help but have an annoyed expression, 'Someone with my talent would be more useful when alive than dead.'

'What are those higher up thinking? Fucking assholes!' Shu Xian kicked another disciple in anger.

He wasn't worried about repercussions due to his actions, but there was one thing that he was afraid of - Yuan Shuchun's anger.

Being a spy, he had a mission to get close to Yuan Shuchun.

He did get close to her.

It was only after that he got to know how cruel she really was. 

To her, human life never mattered. She would do anything to get what she wanted.

And this was the reason why he was always nervous around her - especially after the assassination attempt on her.

He was afraid that one day she would know the truth.

And now, the truth had come forward.

'She knows.'

She knew that it was him who brought the assassin to the banquet hall.

It was only because of Jun Xie's interference that she's still alive.

'She will kill me at the first chance she gets.'

Shu Xian gritted his teeth.

And the chance was right in front of her.

The secret mission.

The secret mission was assigned by the Sect Leader. 

'She will definitely kill me as soon as we get out of the sect.' Shu Xian's anger slowly decreased as an unceasing sense of fear took over him.

'I need to prepare myself for the worst.' 

Unfortunately, he knew that no matter what, only death awaited him.

Taking a deep breath, Shu Xian stepped on the floor of his cultivation abode.

All the peaks in the Gracious Sword Sect had a similar structure.

Just like the Seventh Peak, the Ninth Peak was also divided into several floors.

Shu Xian headed towards his cultivation abode, ignoring the disciples' bowing in front of him.

He felt indifferent towards everything - after knowing that he would be dead in a few days.

He came close to his abode and unclicked the lock.

'Never thought fate would be so fickle. My life -'

*bang!*

A loud noise was heard!

And before Shu Xian could even think of anything else, he suddenly felt his mouth get covered from something, and in the next instant, he lost breath.

He struggled for some time and felt his body get dragged somewhere.

'Is it Yuan Shuchun!?' This was the last thought before he could think of anything.

"What happened!?"

"Who is it?"

"Damn, which bastard is playing pranks!?" 

Many disciples shouted as dense smoke covered the whole floor.

"I can't use my Qi!'

"Me too!?"

"Fuck! Is this an assassination!?" 

As soon as someone shouted this, everyone panicked and ran for their lives.

*bang!*

Another noise was heard, and the disciples panicked even more.

But what they didn't know was the noise of a cultivation abode's gate shutting in.

More specifically, it was Shu Xian's cultivation abode's gate.

… x c

After an unknown amount of time, Shu Xian slowly came back to his senses.

He tried to look around, but everything was dark.

He tried to move around, but his hands and legs were tied.

Slowly, his eyes adjusted to the dim room and found himself tied against the wall.

In front of him was a chair, and on that, someone was sitting.

"Who are you?" Shu Xian snarled.. His anger exploded.
