The Scum Is A ***

Chapter 553 - The Scum Is Deserving



Everyone was surprised, but they understood it immediately after. As Jing De said, there are only two from the Zunjingde Sect, one from the Huakai Sect, one from the Huli Sect, one from the Guhe Sect and one rogue cultivator. If they would separate, it is unknown if the demons they will encounter later, especially accidentally, would overpower them. Even if the six of them would join forces, but their strength still isn't absolute.

They don't dare gamble. Thus, they chose to ally with the Xinfaxian Sect and Youxiwang Sect. Wu Lian's strength is undeniable, as well as Chen Wu's although Chen Wu was often overlooked since he focuses more on his family's welfare than the cultivation world. Although the twins Chen Su and Chen Yu are young, they don't slack with their training, either. Thus, they should be fairly strong.

Then, there are the Xinfaxian Sect's Wen-Zhu pair and the aggressive elder sister Su Mi, not to mention Fei Yinzi. They also have a spell caster Su Yi. The major reason to hug the Xinfaxian Sect's thigh is their resources, and mages Wen Wen and Cui Xiang. One shouldn't forget this master pitter Cui Xiao that obviously have learned her tricks under Cheng Sheng.

One can imagine the horror if they would go against these two sects.

"The Xinfaxian Sect agrees." Wen Yan answered. Their sect, including the Youxiwang Sect, has the largest number so adding one or six more people doesn't make any difference. Jing De's words are right.

"We also agree." Chen Wu spoke. "Our sects have already become friends, after all." He added.

Everyone sighed in relief, especially He Shun. He admits that his strength is just fair and even if Qi Lan would protect him, but there are only two of them. Hugging the Xinfaxian Sect's and Youxiwang Sect's thighs is a wise decision.

"But, we don't need your points." Chen Wu said.

This made them puzzled. Who doesn't want points?

"Let's talk about this later after we find our base." Chen Wu said as he boarded his sword.

"Cui Xiao will choose our base so that she can arrange traps based on the topography of the base." Wen Yan spoke. "Wen Wen can arrange a talisman array for fortification." He added.

"Yes." Cui Xiao and Wen Wen nodded.

The others who decided to hug their thighs. "…" we only want a secure base and fixed resources. We didn't expect that the base will become a fortress! They thought, feeling that it was the wisest decision to hug these people's thighs.

Naturally, everyone outside can think of this. "Oh, god! Having the resources and a tightly secure base, isn't the Xinfaxian Sect bosses?!" the audience exclaimed.

Xie Lan proudly grinned, making the other sect leaders want to punch his smug face.

"Not only is their resources secured, their income, too." Sun Yu added, reminding the sect leaders of this matter.

"That's right!" the sect leaders exclaimed. Since the Zunjingde Sect, Huakai Sect, Huli Sect, Guhe Sect and Qi Lan allied themselves to the Xinfaxian Sect, they have become fixed customers of the Xinfaxian Sect! "Cunning. Too cunning!" they exclaimed.

"Doesn't this remind you of Cheng Sheng before?" Qi Shan asked them with a smile. It is a pity that Qian Jue left with Qian Meng earlier thus they missed Jing De's suggestion. But, he knows that Qian Jue is smart and would realize this matter soon.

Everyone's eyes widened in realization. That's right! They thought. Cheng Sheng has more or less have done this before in the previous Intersect Competition.

"Achoo!" Cheng Sheng sneezed and he rubbed his itchy nose. "Who is talking bad about me?" he asked with a frown.

Everyone who heard him. "…" with your personality, definitely there are many people who are talking about you! They thought, though they didn't say it out loud.

Fei Yin chuckled. "Everyone must have realized now what our sect's and the Youxiwang Sect's purpose is." He told Cheng Sheng.

"Oh. That's right!" Cheng Sheng muttered. "Xiao Xiang's and Wen Wen's magic pills and talismans are of medium-grade, and it should be enough for these participants. Our sect's disciples are talented so it is just right for them to make money out of it!" he explained.

Everyone's lips twitched.

Cheng Sheng saw their expressions. "What? You think otherwise?" he asked as he crossed his arms while he looked at them. "Our sect already is kind to let you buy our magic pills, potions and talismans when we could not have. It is just for you to buy them from our disciples! Or else, wouldn't this wronging our disciples?" he asked them. "Not to mention the quality of their magic pills, potions and talismans! It is also kind enough of us to not give you an additional charge for it!" he added.

Everyone. "…" why are these words so familiar? They thought and finally recalled that these words are also what Cheng Sheng have told them in the previous competition. "…" fck. Why do we feel that it is both reasonable and shameless?! They thought, feeling complicated in their hearts.

Fei Yin just smiled as he touched the jade ring that Cheng Sheng gave him containing the missing piece of his soul, feeling both happy and helpless at Cheng Sheng's antics. As long as he is enjoying. He thought and chuckled as he held the other's hand.

"Ai! Uncle, it is really unfortunate for me to just watch but not join the competition!" Ho Ting sighed as he watched the projected images of the participants coming from the Cleansing Stone.

"You shut up!" Ho Yue rubbed his temples. "Just how did you exactly get possessed by that demonic sword?" he asked with a frown.

"Uncle…" Ho Ting's smile disappeared. "I must have been hypnotized that time." he answered. "You know that ever since that happened to our family, I was vigilant, especially that I came to this new land." He explained.

Ho Yue nodded in agreement. He has taught Ho Ting since young to not trust others aside from himself. Even him, his uncle. Since the enemies can do hypnotism, Ho Yue is afraid they would use him to plot against Ho Ting.

"Uncle, those parasites should be able to hypnotize others. It is just that this He Shun's mind should be too simple, thus he didn't even have a heart demon either." Ho Ting said.

Ho Yue heaved a sigh. "I will tell Cheng Sheng and the others later about this." He said. "Gong Xian." He called.

"Master." Gong Xian answered.

"Go to the Yunxiao Inn and tell Qie Shi to send a message to the Chen patriarch, former sect leader Wu, elder Fei, elder Xi, Xi Xing and Xi Ming to be more careful of the degenerate spirit servants they will encounter." Ho Yue told him. "Especially Xi Ming since he has recovered only recently in both mind and spirit." He added.

"Yes." Gong Xian nodded and disappeared.

"Uncle, this disciple of yours is more like an assassin than a cultivator." Ho Ting can't help but say as they watched Gong Xian leapt on the roofs of the houses and buildings very fast rather than use his sword to fly.

"I told him to train his body so that his cultivation would be smoother." Ho Yue answered.

Ho Ting looked at him. "Uncle, are you and him…?" he asked as his eyes narrowed.

A blush appeared on Ho Yue's face. "He has been pestering me for a long time! How can my heart not be moved?!" he finally admitted.

Ho Ting laughed. "Dang. Then I can't not agree with your relationship." He said. "Just one look and you can see he can easily beat me up." He grimaced. "It is better to just wish you with your relationship earlier than later." He told him.

Ho Yue smiled, feeling relieved.

"Uncle, you deserve this happiness." Ho Ting sincerely told him.

Ho Yue not only had to care for his own survival, but also of his nephew's, too. He also had to raise the very young Ho Ting, not to mention that he should make themselves become stronger to plot revenge.

"En." Ho Yue chuckled. "How about you and that Ling Yun?" he asked when he recalled that his nephew seemed to be interested in Ling Yun after he saw him tease the other before.

"Well…" Ho Ting grinned.

"Achoo!" Ling Yun sneezed and rubbed his nose. "Who is talking about me?" he asked to himself before he looked around.

Earlier, he left with the other participants to look for a base or earn points by killing a demon. He didn't approach the Xinfaxian Sect since he felt guilty towards Fei Yinzi because he felt like he robbed the other of his master. He can still remember how Fei Yinzi reacted when Cheng Sheng announced that he will accept xiao Bao as his disciple.

As he walked, he didn't notice that he had walked further.. He stopped and activated the stone to look at the map, only to be shocked when in the corner of his eyes, he saw something.
