Su Ci Yi tried to sense if the man has a spiritual qi but to her disappointment, he has none. However, she applauded his accuracy in throwing the knife. She could tell the far-off distance that the object traveled to her. There was no killing intent so far, the reason she senses it a little late.
Looking at the man a few meters away and has no intention of speaking, she took the liberty to talk first.
"Aiyahhh~, I'll tell you this but I won't accept this kind of affair. I know I'm pretty, cute and delicate but aren't you too irresponsible just to meet me here in the middle of the night?" She blurted out.
The man was speechless out of nowhere.
Seeing no reply, Su Ci Yi provoke him even more " Hey! I'll dump you right off the hook if you won't speak there~"
The man thought to himself, [She's definitely crazy]
Tsk. What a boring man.
Feeling that even if she back dive, split or summersault in the middle of the ground, the man would just only look at her in a twisted face. So, there's no need to set the stage like a magic circus in order to get through him.
Looking at the ground and picking some dry leaves, she then put the leaf near her mouth and breathed her qi. The moment the spiritual qi was channeled, the leaf hardened like a sharpened blade. Then repeating the same actions, now she had quite a few sharp blades on her hand.
With a smirk lurking on her lips, she threw the small pieces to where the man was. The sharp self-made blades traveled with the speed of the wind and reach the man in no time.
The man only felt that a strong gust of wind blew him, but who would have thought that the moment he touched his face he saw fresh blood. Not only that, few of his body have cuts and wounds. He reacted to pain a little late.
What was it!?
What was the thing that wounded him!?
He looked at the woman who was grinning ear to ear. Goosebumps envelop him. For a second there, she vanished from where she's standing. The rustling of the dry leave beneath, was even louder as he panicked and turn to his surrounding vigilantly. In an instant, the woman who vanished, appear in front of him just two meters away.
Her body curled in momentum as she gave a force to her left leg, lifting, increasing its stamina and roughly kick the man on his abdomen! KO! Su Ci Yi for the win!
Su Ci Yi landed on the ground without a hitch.
"You….y-you…"The man stammer as he tried to stand up holding his swollen stomach. "Who are you….?"
"Who am I?"
Seeing that the crazy woman in a hospital gown was approaching, the man stepped back.
"Why don't you tell me first... who paid you to kill me? I know I'm cute and my face is irresistible to beckon, but this is far from I can tolerate! Spill the beans and I'll spare you."
The man acted like he was vomiting!
The nerve!
The self-proclaim silly cute person harrumphs seeing that she's not taken seriously.
The man thought again for a second time, [She's totally crazy]
***
Su Ci Yi, on the other hand, had already in mind who sent the man to her but she wanted to confirm it and must know the reason behind it. Seriously, that girl was a two-faced medusa acting like a white lotus in front, but a totally blackened person behind. Strictly speaking, she should be the one acting out of revenge since she's the one being aggravated but to think it's the opposite.
This world has gone totally crazy!
"Are we just going to stare at each other's spark until the morning sunset here?" Su Ci Yi repeated again.
The man lips half-open but immediately closed it. In the end, he choosed to speak, "It's the young mistress of the Huan Clan." he blurted out.
She was right on that!
"Why does your young mistress want to kill me huh? Did we have an unsettling affair that I forgot? Did I cheat on her boyfriend? Did I ruin her company? Or did I make her mentally crazy? What does your young mistress want with me?" She followed up.
The man was speechless being bombarded with questions.
"I am only asked to do this."
She expected that answer.
Well then, Su Ci Yi pulled the rusted knife and threw it on the ground where the man was standing.
"I'll let you off the hook this time, you better tell your mistress the second time she attempts it, I'll drown her to the river Styx!"
The man immediately retreated his knife as he put it inside his waist satchel. Su Ci Yi carefully observed him just to see that he didn't have any intention to leave. Also, there was this conspicuous feeling of him anxiously looking over at his watch. He's not planning to sneakily kill her when her guard was down, isn't he? If so, then he was a fool. The killing intent of mortal won't work on her.
However, there was this doubt inside her that something was amiss. There's no killing intent earlier when this man attacked. She was pretty sure of it earlier. There was nothing the moment the knife was thrown.
What was this bad feeling that brewing inside her chest…
The feeling of anxiousness …
What is it?...
*Ping!
As if a light bulb has turned on, something registered on her mind.
F*ck!!!
She's d*mn!
"Master!!!" Qin Tao was far away waving at her victory. But she should be able to see him clearly by that distance. Right now, she could only make out a blur silhouette of a child. Her vision was fading slowly as her surrounding seems to darken and her eyes started to shut down. The goddess of slumber finally visited her under the dark night.
*Flop
The sound of her falling to the filthy ground.
"Master!!!" She heard the same voice. The content was still the same but the emotion now differed. It has a hint of anxiousness and worry...
That moment when she realized something. Sh*t! Something was mixed on her supper! -The last thought of Su Ci Yi as she totally blacked out.
