The Scum Is A ***

Chapter 80 - The Scum Is Decisive



The winner could be clearly seen between the two. After all, Jing Hei's the 8th in the ranking while Shu Mu is just the 11th. Whether Shu Mu was telling the truth or just slandering Jing Hei earlier can now be seen. Shu Mu fell on the ground after he took the hit. Blood was seeping out of the corner of his lips and he was holding his chest, forcing himself not to throw up blood. Fortunately, Jing Hei remained kind despite the things Shu Mu told Qian Lin earlier since Jing Hei didn't follow up more attacks. Jing Hei was considering about Shu Mu's participation in the competition tomorrow, thus he doesn't want to make Shu Mu lose his chance to win. On the other hand, Jing Bai was sending him glances that the matter he will be telling him is very important. Thus, after leaving Shu Mu kneeling on his one, he left together with Jing Bai and Qian Lin.

"Da shixiong!" the Nanshu Sect's disciples called as they immediately helped Shu Mu up. They were too scared to speak another word seeing Shu Mu's dark face after his arrogance was broken by Jing Hei today.

"Let's go!" Shu Mu said, ignoring the gazes of people on them – precisely on him, which were filled with ridicule. This is how it ought to be – whoever wins will be praised to the heavens, while the one who loses will be laughed at until they have sunk into the deepest of abyss. Thus, he has to seize power as soon as possible. Not only his father, but those who had laughed at him – and are continue laughing at him, he'll remember all of them and will kill each one of them when he finally became powerful! Those who are powerful can reign with terror, while the ones who are weak will live terrified. Shu Mu doesn't need anyone's recognition nor acknowledgement. He only need them to fear him. And he will make sure that day will not be too later!

On the other side, Jing Bai finally told Jing Hei and Qian Lin the matter involving the demonic cultivators. "We should expect troubles to come tomorrow." Although Jing Bai said this, but there is a smile on his face.

Jing Hei and Qian Lin chose to ignore it. Jing Bai has always been this way. "The sect leaders all over the continent will come tomorrow not only to support their disciples, but also to recruit people." Jing Hei said. The reason why the sect leaders chose to come later than their disciple is that they treat their disciples' travel to the competition as their own preliminary test. If they can't even simply travel on their own towards the heart of the continent, what use are they as disciples of their sect? Another untold reason is that they naturally act too self-important. They wouldn't lower themselves to their disciples' level. "However, the sect leaders can only guard outside the competition. Inside the competition… it'll be left on ourselves." Jing Hei added, his face serious. The first and foremost rule of the Intersect Competition is that no one should interfere what is happening during the competition, unless it is a matter of life and death. However, there will be venues in the competition which is highly guarded and won't be easily broken by the people outside. Thus, if the demonic cultivators would choose this time to act, they can immediately kill the weak participants. It'll be a massacre if it'd happen.

"We are only seven people." Qian Lin said.

Jing Bai had a look of conflict. "The five elders also know this. However, we can only save those who are within our reach. As for the others who aren't…" his voice trailed off. They can only leave them to die. This is too selfish of them, but they already had their hands full. The five elders of the Righteous Alliance, including Jing Rui, also are doing their best to provide tight security for the safety of the participants. Unfortunately, the news about the demonic cultivators' ploy has arrived in their hand late. They could only tell this information to the other sect leaders tomorrow and hold an emergency meeting with them, telling them of the demonic cultivators' plan and plan which actions should be best done in order to counterattack to the demonic cultivators and destroy their plan – the Cleansing Stone. They don't know what the demonic cultivators are planning with it, but they know it wouldn't be good. Fortunately, Jing Rui had coughed out this very important information from one of the demonic cultivators they have caught. Now they will have a lead to where to go.

Qian Lin sighed. It's not as if he's a holy father who would save everyone. He was never a good person. He understands the five elders' intentions. For the greater good, something must be sacrificed. They could only tell this information between the sect elders and the seven people in the rankings. This matter cannot be leaked, or else it will cause panic and the Intersect Competition had to be postponed. They cannot let go of this chance to produce new Nascent Soul Stage cultivators through the Cleansing Stone. Tomorrow, it will depend on the leaders of the sects on how to tell this matter to their disciples so that they could protect themselves. They still have time to prepare tomorrow, which is the opening ceremony of the Intersect Competition.

As Jing Bai and Jing Hei sent Qian Lin to his inn where he was staying, and the two of them flew to their residence where their uncle was waiting, Jing Cheng, Xi Ming and Xi Xing also have finished talking. Xi Ming and Xi Xing went back to their fellow disciples while Jing Cheng went to find Chen Han and Sun Yi. As he was on his way, Jing Cheng thought of Jing Bai and Jing Hei. They will be scolded by Jing Rui and have their ears twisted. "Oh. I apologize." He apologized when he bumped into someone because his mind was drifting. When he raised his head, he saw a cultivator dressed in all black and was wearing a conical hat with veil. One cannot tell their gender. If Jing Cheng is judgmental, he would think the cultivator before him is a demonic cultivator. Fortunately, he isn't. Or else he would have already offended the cultivator. Even if he's the first in the previous ranking of talented disciples, and is very powerful, but he isn't unreasonable and arrogant. Or else, he'll be beaten to death by Jing Rui if it happened.

The cultivator just silently nodded at him and then walked away, immediately disappearing in the sea of people.
