The Scum Is A ***

"Second young master Chen." Qian Lin broke the awkward atmosphere. He and Zheng Yi were fine since Jing Hei and Jing Bai protected them. Even Jing Kang didn't escape the monster's clutches and had scratches on him.

Earlier, Cheng Sheng told them the scent of the Fallen Pollen would disappear by the dusk since the Fallen Pollen's scent can only be smelled during daytime, and only by the monsters. This is the reason why Cheng Sheng found out his magic herbs must have had Fallen Pollens on them since he didn't smell it, but they were chased by agitated monsters. Thus, from dusk until before the dawn breaks, the Fallen Pollen's scent should be removed from their body while the monsters can't smell the Fallen Pollen during the night, or the monsters would chase them again tomorrow.

"Oh. Everyone. You're here." Cheng Sheng said and gave them a warm smile.

"…" they only felt more irritated by his smile.

Cheng Sheng noticed their bad mood but he ignored it. "Have you eaten?" he asked them. "Why don't you grab a bite first? It's our da shixiong who cooked. We can talk about business later." He told them.

The Zunjingde Sect who tasted the food Fei Yin cooked. "!!!" their eyes shone as they looked at the steaming dishes. They immediately forgot the Fallen Pollen matter and immediately find their seats.

The others who were left. "…" how hungry is the Zunjingde Sect? They thought before they followed them since it is a free food. Li Tian and Xiao Le immediately gave them a share. 

Qian Lin and Jing Kang who were polite to their bones didn't forget Cheng Sheng. "Second young master Chen. What are you doing?" Qian Lin asked and looked at Cheng Sheng and Wu Xi's hands soaked in a warm water.

"Oh. We're detoxifying our hands since we touched the Fallen Pollens." Cheng Sheng answered. "To completely remove its poison, we used the Sundry Leaf." He added.

"PPPTTT!" hearing the 'Sundry Leaf', the Huakai Sect choked and violently coughed after they spat out their food. Shan Lu's face is red both from embarrassment and asphyxia.

"*cough did you… by chance…" Tang Zhe said after he drank water. "… used Sundry Leaf as an ingredient?" he asked and looked at the food.

Fei Yin, the cook, turned to Tang Zhe and nodded. "Yes." he answered. "Tonight is cold, so it'll keep everyone's body warm." He explained.

The Huakai Sect's face can't help but turn green. Everyone casted a sympathetic gaze on them before they resumed eating. Eating food is a necessity, but eating delicious food is a luxury! They thought.

Qian Lin and Jing Kang didn't bother Cheng Sheng again and sat to have dinner. Fei Yin resumed feeding Cheng Sheng while Li Tian and the others reserved food for Wu Xi to eat later. The scent of food wafted around the area, making one's mouth water when they smelled it. It makes one to wonder what will the food taste like?

"So, where is the thing that can remove the smell of the Fallen Pollen on our body?" Jing Cheng asked after they had their fill.

Fei Yin held Cheng Sheng's face with his one hand while his other hand wiped his mouth after he finished feeding Cheng Sheng. His actions are very gentle and careful as if he's afraid he'd leave a bruise on Cheng Sheng's skin.

The others who were fed dog food again even if they had just finished their dinner. "..."

"Oh, that?" Cheng Sheng said as he turned to them. Then, he smiled. "It's on you." He answered.

"Huh?" they said as they felt puzzled by Cheng Sheng's answer. What does he mean, it's on us? They thought and looked at the Youxiwang Sect and Xinfaxian Sect that suddenly had become silent. Why are they not speaking? They thought when they remembered Cheng Sheng's team had been silent ever since they arrived. Did they not eat enough? They added when they remembered Cheng Sheng's team only ate a little. Did they eat only a few amount of food because of us? They felt touched for Cheng Sheng's team being thoughtful of them.

Seeing the puzzled look on their face, Cheng Sheng spoke. "It's your sweat – particularly, your body's smell can remove the Fallen Pollen's smell." He said. "You can use the Sundry Leaf tonic to detoxify the smell on your skin like Wu Xi and I. However, since you've been carrying the magic pills with you for so long, its smell was absorbed by your skin. Thus, to expulse it, your body had to exude sweat where the Fallen Pollen will mix." He explained.

"Then… we just have to exercise?" Xi Ming asked.

"Or fight?" Tang Yun asked and grinned.

"No need." Cheng Sheng answered.

"Huh?" they said. "Then, how can we...?" they asked.

Cheng Sheng smiled. "Your body only had to feel heat to sweat." He answered and watched when their expression suddenly changed. "Oh. It seemed like it's working?" he said.

Their eyes widened as they suddenly toppled over on the ground. "Poison?!" Kang Ce asked and glared at Cheng Sheng.

Cheng Sheng's eyes widened as if he was offended. "How can I feed you poison?" he asked. "Didn't we also eat the food?" he said.

"Then, what did you…?" Jing Hei asked as Jing Kang and Shan Lu suddenly fainted. They are all heavily sweating.

"Sundry Leaf." Cheng Sheng answered. "I had da shixiong mix it with your food. Aren't I considerate?" he asked and smiled brightly at them.

"AAAAH!" they screamed when they suddenly felt their body is on fire.

"Ah. If you feel that hot, there's a spring over there." Cheng Sheng told them and chuckled when he saw them dashed towards the trees. The next second and they heard a loud splash. "Aren't I considerate, da shixiong?" he asked Fei Yin.

"Yes." Fei Yin answered.

Li Tian and the others. "..." Da shixiong, you're too biased! They thought and watched Fei Yin wiped Cheng Sheng's hands after he and Wu Xi finished soaking their hands. Fei Yin devotedly wiped each nook of Cheng Sheng's fingers. "…" da shixiong, you dote on him too much. They thought.

They were more fortunate than the others. Earlier, after Cheng Sheng realized it was the Fallen Pollen's effect, he threw an Exploding Pill to the monsters and they all turned to ashes.

"…" everyone who saw Cheng Sheng finished the monsters in one shot. 

"Not good." Cheng Sheng said as he immediately put his hands on his sides. "Don't touch your lips, nose, eyes or ears. Let's find a spring first!" he told them. 

"Why?" they asked. 

"It's the Fallen Pollen. We have to wash our body and clothes to get rid of the pollens!" he said as he looked at the Cleansing Stone for the map. "Fortunately, there's one nearby. Let's go!" he told them as he ran first. 

Although puzzled, but they still followed him. Only for Cheng Sheng to tell them – "Strip." He said when they arrived in the spring. 

"…" their face darkened. This is too much! They thought. 

"Cheng-shidi." Fei Yin called. 

Cheng Sheng's brows raised before he looked at Li Tian, Sun Yi and Feng Mo who are already committed. Then he saw Chen Han is close to exploding. "Oh." He said then turned to Shu Mu. "Close the Cleansing Stone." He told him. 

"Eh?" Shu Mu was dumbfounded. 

"Do you want us to do live porn?" Cheng Sheng asked him. 

"…" what's a porn? Shu Mu thought, but hid the Cleansing Stone, nonetheless. 

"Alright." Cheng Sheng said as he turned to everyone. "Then, Sun-shixiong, Li-shixiong, Feng-shixiong and Xiao Le will take a bath first." He said as he took out some leaves from his qiankun pouch before he turned to Chen Han, Shu Mu, Yu Sheng and Wu Xi. "If any of you will take a peek, be prepared for your eyeballs to be plucked out." he told them and smiled as he took the four people to the spring. Then, he laid a Concealment Array. They all disappeared from their sight. 

"…" we don't dare. Fei Yin, Shu Mu and Chen Han thought while Yu Sheng laughed. Wu Xi just remained silent. 

"Oh, right. What about Ah Sheng?" Chen Han said. Cheng Sheng only mentioned the four. 

Just as his voice fell, they saw Cheng Sheng reappeared carrying qiankun pouches. "After they finished bathing, you can have your bath." He told them before he threw the qiankun pouches to them. "For the meantime, you seal the bottles." He said. 

Chen Han, Yu Sheng, Shu Mu and Wu Xi were holding the qiankun pouches and nodded. Fei Yin and Cheng Sheng also sealed their bottles. 

Not long after and Li Tian, Feng Mo, Sun Yi and Xiao Le appeared. Their hair is still wet. Chen Han walked towards Li Tian. "Immediately wipe your hair, or you'll catch a cold." He told him. 

Li Tian immediately blushed while Sun Yi, Feng Mo and Xiao Le laughed. "So nice… I hope my Yuan is here, too." Sun Yi said and sighed. 

Feng Mo nodded. "I hope Wu Bai is also here…" he said. 

Yu Sheng and Shu Mu then went to the spring. "Huh? Wu Xi, you're not going?" Chen Han said when he saw Wu Xi was just silently standing there. 

Wu Xi shook his head. "Eh?" Cheng Sheng said. Seeing Wu Xi remained silent, he sighed and gave him the Stinky Pill. "Here. I'll give this to you. We'll seal our sense of smell tomorrow." he told him. 

The others also understood Wu Xi. He must have a defect in his body. "Hm? How about you and Fei-shidi?" Chen Han asked. 

"We'll have ours later." Cheng Sheng answered. 

"…" everyone who understood the implication of his words. Even in bath?! They thought. Fei Yin would definitely be the one to wipe Cheng Sheng's body!
