The Scum Is A ***

Chapter 160 - The Scum Is A Profiteer



Jing Cheng panted and looked at Wu Xi who stood motionless after Qian Lin pasted a talisman on his back while Jing Bai and Jing Hei were holding his legs and Zheng Yi and Jing Kang were holding his arms. After two hours and they finally stopped the raging Wu Xi.

"What… what\'s gotten into him?" Jing Hei asked as he fell on his hands and knees while he heavily panted. Jing Bai sat on the ground, leaning on his back with his hands on the ground. Jing Cheng was using his sword to lean on while Jing Kang and Zheng Yi were sprawled on the ground. Qian Lin\'s knees were shaking.

They were given a fright earlier after Wu Xi attacked them like a beast. No, he\'s worse than a beast. They thought as they looked at Wu Xi who slightly moved as he struggled against Jing Kang\'s talisman. Qian Lin raised his hand and needles came out between his fingers, preparing to fight against Wu Xi.

Then, they saw Wu Xi\'s hand move, but only to make his sword write on the ground. "I am sane now." it wrote.

"What…" Jing Hei was shocked. "He was really possessed earlier?!" he exclaimed.

"The… Alliance… had… to… explore… new… areas… in… here…" Zheng Yi panted. They were all beaten up after Wu Xi flung them in all directions like ants against a wild elephant. What a monstrous strength! he thought as he looked at Wu Xi.

"Really?" Qian Lin asked Wu Xi.

Wu Xi\'s sword moved again. "Yes." he answered.

Qian Lin then reached for the talisman on Wu Xi\'s back and removed it. Wu Xi really didn\'t move. "You…" he said as he stared at Wu Xi.

"I wasn\'t possessed. My mind has been made confused when I entered the forbidden area

." Wu Xi\'s sword wrote. "I apologize for being rude earlier." It added.

"…" the Zunjingde Sect. \'rude\'?! They thought.

"I have no money nor magic pills to pay you. If you want, I can act as your guard." Wu Xi added.

"That\'s…" Jing Cheng scratched his cheek before he turned to the others. "There\'s no need…" he told him. If Wu Xi would tag along with them, it\'d be awkward. One, Wu Xi is one of their opponents. Two, Wu Xi had just attacked them. But, it was no doubt their manpower will increase...

However, just as he was thinking of considering Wu Xi\'s proposal for compensating them, Jing Cheng\'s face cracked after seeing what Wu Xi wrote next. 

"Really? Then, I\'m sorry to bother you. I\'ll be taking my leave. I won\'t appear before you again." Wu Xi\'s sword wrote before it flew back on its scabbard. Wu Xi then bowed at them before he silently left.

"…" the Zunjingde Sect felt speechless. What\'s with this situation? You easily give up! They thought.

"Such a weird guy." Jing Hei sighed and pouted. His cheek was swollen after Wu Xi punched him.

"Ah Hei – " Qian Lin called as he kept his needles and took out a salve to treat Jing Hei\'s wounds.

"Yiyi, are you alright?" Jing Bai asked as he helped Zheng Yi up. "Don\'t hide your wounds. Let me check them." he told him.

"…" Zheng Yi helplessly sighed and showed his bruised arm. Meanwhile, Jing Kang fixed his disheveled hair and clothes.

"…" Jing Cheng who suddenly felt like a single dog. Someone… I\'m the most injured person here after I worked hard the most! He thought and Jing Rui\'s face appeared in his mind. Jing Rui… he thought as he lowered his head.

Outside the secret realm, Jing Rui\'s face showed no expression after they saw the fight between Wu Xi and the Zunjingde Sect. Qian Lin, Zheng Yi and Jing Kang flew like cabbages earlier.

"Wu Xi is very strong!" the sect leaders exclaimed. "Fortunately, he\'s alive!" they added.

"Wu Xi is ridiculously strong." Someone said.

"Cheng Sheng is a monster. Of course, he\'d attract another monster!" another sect leader said.

"That\'s true." A sect leader nodded. "Remember, there\'s also this Yu Sheng in his team…" he added.

They watched the Zunjingde Sect left the area to hunt more walking corpses. Meanwhile, they heard a startled gasp from Tang Teng.

"Sect leader Tang, what\'s wr – " the sect leaders asked before they froze when they saw the Huakai Sect\'s side. "…" just how unlucky is their sect? They thought when they saw Chen Han\'s group are approaching the Huakai Sect - again.

Inside the secret realm, Wu Xi came out where he\'s hiding after the Zunjingde Sect left. Then, he picked up the magic herbs around the area. When he was finished, he also left to look for more magic herbs as ingredient for the Cleansing Meridian Pill which Cheng Sheng will be refining for Qie Shi.

On the Huakai Sect\'s side, Tang Zhe\'s eyes widened in horror when he saw a walking corpse jumped on Tang Yun\'s back. "Xiao Yun!" he called and saw the walking corpse raised its head to bite Tang Yun who was lying on the ground. Tang Yun is still injured after his fight last night with Kang Ce!

Suddenly, a vivid red sword glare shot at the walking corpse. The walking corpse\'s head rolled on the ground.

"Are you okay?" Chen Han asked as he and his group ran towards them.

"Chen Han!" Tang Zhe exclaimed when he saw them. His face lit up. They\'re really our saviors! He thought as he killed the walking corpse he\'s fighting with. "Thanks for the help!" he told them and bowed as he gratefully looked at their group.

"You seem to be beaten up again." Feng Mo said while Xiao Le laid a formation of talismans around them all to keep the walking corpses from nearing at them while the Huakai Sect rested. Yu Sheng stayed outside the formation of talismans to kill the corpses.

"… thanks." Tang Zhe said and smiled as he tiredly collapsed on the ground. Guo Cheng fell on his hands and knees while Shan Lu leaned on the tree. They had to reserve more magic pills and potions thus, if it weren\'t for Yu Sheng\'s additional potions and magic pills, they would\'ve been killed by the large wave of walking corpses. It seemed that they had accidentally wandered in their1 lair.

"…" Feng Mo felt he guilty for being blunt in his words. He didn\'t know the Huakai Sect\'s condition is this worse.

Li Tian saw them all exhausted and he cast a healing spell.

"Wow…" the Huakai Sect exclaimed when they felt some of their energy was restored. They looked at Li Tian and felt gratified.

Li Tian awkwardly smiled. "Cheng-shidi taught me the Healing Spell before the second stage…" he said and lowered his head.

"Ah Tian…" Chen Han patted his shoulder. He also looked sad.

"…" the Huakai Sect suddenly felt guilty. They easily judged Cheng Sheng when in fact they should be gratified of him!

Look, Cheng Sheng isn\'t here but he still indirectly helped them! If not for him teaching Li Tian a healing spell, they would\'ve been left to be eaten by the walking corpses! To add, the Alliance\'s disciple that\'s with them1 taught the disciple that was assigned to them on how to treat their wounds faster.

The Xinfaxian Sect and Youxiwang Sect… they\'re all benevolent people!

Outside the secret realm. As if thinking what his disciples are thinking, Tang Teng covered his face with his hand. This is being sold, but still helping the person who sold them count his money!

This is painful to look at… no. Too painful. He thought. He wanted to find a hole and hide himself.

"…" the sect leaders can\'t help but cast a sympathetic gaze to Tang Teng while they speechlessly looked at Xie Lan and Wu Yuan. They don\'t know how to evaluate them. Should we congratulate them for their disciples being highly-skilled in acting? They thought. Or that they earned a large sum of money from the other sects? 

Inside the secret realm, in contrast to the Huakai Sect looking despairing. On the other hand, the Shanliangde Sect is having a peaceful time with Sun Yi… or so they thought.

"Ah Xing, look out!" Xi Ming called as he pushed Xi Xing on the side. "Ugh!" he cried when his arm was clawed by a walking corpse.

"Xi Ming!" Xi Xing called, his voice weak but his expression was shocked. He was stupid for dazing out. Now Xi Ming was hurt because of him. "Ha!" he yelled as he stabbed the walking corpse. "Xi Ming!" he called as he threw his sword and lifted up Xi Ming\'s upper body. "Xi Ming!" he called.

"What happened?" Sun Yi asked as he helped Fu An and Xiong Si deal with the walking corpses.

"Second young master Sun… Xi Ming is…" Xi Xing said as a trace of worry flashed in his eyes and face. It is rare for him to show such emotions, thus his expression looked stiff. But the look in his eyes can\'t be false.

"Eldest young master Xi!" Sun Yi called as he went to the two.

"Xi Xing. How did this happen?" Gong Xian asked after they finally dealt with the corpses.

"Xian-ge…" Xi Xing looked like he\'s about to cry.

"I still have some magic pills left, and also potions." Sun Yi said.

"However, what about you?" Gong Xian asked.

Sun Yi smiled. "I won\'t be hurt. I promised my Yuan." he told them. He\'s referring to Wu Yuan, his husband. "We have to save him first." He added and looked at Xi Ming.

Gong Xian knows that Sun Yi is strong. "We can\'t take advantage of your kindness." He said as he took out his money purse.

"Xian-ge. Let me. I have saved my money." Xi Xing said as he paid Sun Yi before he took the magic pills and potions. "Xi Ming…" he called as he made Xi Ming drink the potion.

Outside the secret realm. "…" everyone is speechless as to how the Xinfaxian Sect and Youxiwang Sect can still profit from this situation.
