The Scum Is A ***

Chapter 329 - The Scum Is Barbaric



Meanwhile, Yu Sheng arrived and looked surprised after he saw the corpses of the demonic cultivators fell one by one after Xie Lan and Fan Wen struck them dead. 

"Yu Sheng?!" Fan Wen exclaimed when he saw Yu Sheng descended. 

Yu Sheng nodded and watched as the last demonic cultivator fell after Xie Lan cut him down on his waist and shoulder. "…" he's more barbaric than the demonic cultivators. 

"You came. Why?" Xie Lan asked as he waved his sword. The blood of the demonic cultivators that stained his sword splashed on the ground. 

"… I thought you'll find it hard fighting against a curved sword." Yu Sheng answered. "Qian Tian and Jing Hei, as well as Qian Lin and Lei Qing were besieged by the demonic cultivators in the Millennium Ship, but they won and didn't suffer any injury. I had Qian Tian and Jing Hei go to Fei Lin and Jing Rui's side, respectively, to aid them, since they became familiar fighting against a curved sword after their fight against the demonic cultivators in the Millennium Ship." He explained. 

"Huh?" Xie Lan spoke. "I've fought against that old man that told me and Wen about the Wuran Kingdom, so I've become familiar with his fighting style using a curved sword." He explained. 

"… I can see that now." Yu Sheng said and looked at the mountain of corpses of the demonic cultivators that fell on Xie Lan's and Fan Wen's hands. "Looks like I'm not needed here?" he said as he turned back to the two. 

"No." Xie Lan answered. "I'll continue fighting these bastards. Wen will go give xiao Tian qi after five minutes." He said. "You go help the Zunjingde Sect. Jing Rui only have his disciples on him, no matter how strong his disciples are, and even they have more number than us." He told him. 

Yu Sheng nodded. "Okay." He said and then flew away. 

"Lan…" Fan Wen called Xie Lan after Yu Sheng left. 

Xie Lan smiled. "I know Yu Sheng also knows." He said. He, Fan Wen and Li Tian have the smallest number. Even if he and Fan Wen are strong, but how long could they last against the continuous waves of attack of the demonic cultivators?

But, he still chose to send Yu Sheng away. It's because – 

Fan Wen smiled. "I'll go through fire and water, if it's with you." He told Xie Lan. Xie Lan trusts him, and he's glad Xie Lan doesn't treat him as weaker than him. 

Xie Lan nodded and returned the smile. "Go help xiao Tian after five minutes, okay?" he said as he waved his sword when they saw another wave of demonic cultivators are arriving. 

Fan Wen nodded, his expression heavy. "Yes." He answered, even though that will be leaving Xie Lan facing the demonic cultivators alone. 

"Watch out!" Zheng Yi cried and immediately blocked the curved sword descending on Jing Cheng's back. 

"Zheng Yi!" Jing Cheng called before he turned to feed Jing Rui a magic pill. It was one of the magic pills that was left on him after the Intersect Competition. Since it was refined by Cheng Sheng, the effect can be immediately seen. 

Jing Rui's stomach wound immediately closing can be seen from the tear on his clothes. He got it after he shieled Jing Cheng. "I'm fine now – " he said and immediately kicked the demonic cultivator pressing on Zheng Yi with his sword. 

Jing Cheng immediately followed with stabbing the demonic cultivator. The demonic cultivator cried and fell on the ground. Zheng Yi collapsed on the ground, catching his breath. That was the last demonic cultivator from the fifth wave of demonic cultivators that attacked them. 

"Uncle! Da ge! Zheng Yi!" a voice called from a distance. 

Jing Rui, Jing Cheng and Zheng Yi turned. Zheng Yi thought that the voice was familiar. But, after he saw the face of the newcomer, he suddenly felt disappointed. 

"Jing Hei!" Jing Rui and Jing Cheng cried. 

Jing Hei descended and ran towards them. "Uncle! You're hurt!" he said when he saw the wounds on Jing Rui's body. 

Jing Cheng bit his lip, feeling guilty. 

"I'm fine." Jing Rui said as he took out a bandage from his qiankun pouch and wrapped his arm, only for Jing Cheng to grab it from him. 

"Let me." Jing Cheng said before he carefully wrapped Jing Rui's wound. Jing Rui didn't speak and just let him. 

"I have medicines here! And more bandages!" Jing Hei said. "Zheng Yi!" he called. 

Zheng Yi shook off that disappointment and slowly walked towards them. "Give me." He said. 

Jing Hei nodded and gave Zheng Yi some bottles of potions and magic pills, and bandages. "Fortunately, there's You-shimei!" he said as he fed Jing Cheng and Jing Rui with magic pills. "More fortunately, she's Cheng Sheng's apprentice, and she isn't slacking off, so her medicines are high-levels! She's a senior mage now, like Lei-shidi!" he told them. 

"En. That's good." Jing Rui nodded and looked at Jing Kang. 

Jing Cheng, Jing Hei and You Rou also turned and looked at Jing Kang. "Ah Kang will be fine, right?" Jing Hei anxiously asked. 

"He can do it." Jing Rui said. 

Jing Cheng nodded in agreement. After all, Jing Kang has also passed the Intersect Competition, so his cultivation level also increased. "Let's rest first. It'll be some time before they arrive again." He said. 

"Yes!" they answered. With Jing Hei here, they could hold on longer. 

Millennium Ship. 

"Here they come again!" Lei Ling cried as he and You Rou hid behind Zuo Zhe while Jing Hei and Lei Qing tensed and tightened their grip on their sword as they faced the demonic cultivators that arrived, waving their curved sword. 

Zuo Zhe grimaced as he looked at Lei Ling and You Rou. He can't believe his characters created would hide behind him to seek shelter. "How long will your barrier last?" he asked Lei Ling. 

"Half an hour." Lei Ling answered. He isn't lying. Before, his barriers of talismans could only last for ten to fifteen minutes. But, with his continuous training, they could now last for half an hour. "But, if there's someone stronger who…" he said and stopped. He immediately closed his mouth. He doesn't want to have a crow's beak. 

Zuo Zhe understood. He turned to Lei Qing and Qian Lin. "No need to fight." He told them. 

Lei Qing and Qian Lin turned to him. 

Lei Ling also looked at him. "Young master Zuo, will you…" he said before his eyes widened. "No, no! You must be very tired, sealing so many Ni Lai Gates! Just leave protecting the ship to us!" he told Zuo Zhe. "If this barrier breaks, I can make a new one! There's also my jie and second young master Qian!" he said. 

Lei Qing and Qian Lin nodded. "Young master Zuo, there's no need for you to – " they said. 

Zuo Zhe cut them off. "There is." He said and grimly smiled. Cheng Sheng is Yu Sheng's younger brother, and these disciples are Cheng Sheng's friends. If even just one of them loses a hair, he doesn't know what will Yu Sheng do to him… "I have lots of energy." He said as he cracked his knuckles. "Lei Qing, Qian Lin. You've fought hard against the demonic cultivators earlier. And Qian Lin, you're still recovering. You two go rest." He told them. "You Rou." He called. 

"Yes!" You Rou answered and straightened her back. 

"Continue refining medicines. It's better to be safe than sorry." Zuo Zhe said. 

"Huh? 'better to be safe than sorry'…?" they asked. 

Zuo Zhe looked helpless. "It's better to be more cautious as we proceed, than later regret that we didn't after we've been sieged." He explained. 

"Oh…" they said. 

"Lei Ling." He called as he turned to Lei Ling who looked stupefied. "I don't understand about the talismans that much, but I can help you work with the seals on your talismans to strengthen them, thus strengthening the barrier." He told him. 

Lei Ling's eyes sparkled. "Yes, yes, yes!" he said, very excited. 

"Then… let's roll." Zuo Zhe smiled. 

They all suddenly froze. "… 'let's roll'…?" they asked. 

It was Zuo Zhe's turned to freeze. The smile on his face stiffened. "… I meant, let's start working…" he explained. 

"Oh…" they all immediately dispersed to avoid making the atmosphere become more awkward. 

Lei Qing left with You Rou who resumed refining medicines while Qian Lin returned to his room to have more rest. Meanwhile, he and Lei Ling began to work. 

"Let's start!" 

Heilong Realm. 

Cheng Sheng, Fei Yin and Wu Yuan found someplace in the mountain to observe the town from above. They observed from sunrise until noon, then decided to descend the mountain and finally approach the town. They didn't see anything strange with the town except that it's situated in a valley. 

"What do you think?" Cheng Sheng asked as they walked down the cobblestone path leading them to someplace inside the town. 

Fei Yin and Wu Yuan shook their head. "It's normal?" they said. 

Cheng Sheng smiled. "The more normal it looks, the more abnormal it definitely be!"
