The Scum Is A ***

Zuo Zhe's pupils shrank. What?! He gasped. 'Soul error'?! He looked at the unconscious Cheng Sheng in shock. "There's… something wrong with his soul." He told them. Cheng Sheng's soul... how can there be an error?! He thought. He suddenly felt panic. This can't be... He thought, his face turning pale. 

Yu Sheng, who was silently waiting on the side, was staring at Zuo Zhe and saw Zuo Zhe's face paled in fright as he looked at Cheng Sheng. Zhe... he thought. His eyelids covered half of his eyes, hiding his thoughts. 

Hearing what he said, Fei Yin, Li Tian, Feng Mo, Chen Han, Sun Yi and Wu Yuan froze in fear. No way... they thought as they looked at each other. Dread is in their eyes. 

"What do you mean?!" Lei Qing asked in alarm. She, You Rou and Lei Ling still doesn't know about the Spirit Awakening Method. They only know that Cheng Sheng achieved a breakthrough and gained a golden core as the fruit of his hard work.

"The reason why his wound can't be treated, thus the bleeding can't stop, is because his soul was injured." Zuo Zhe patiently explained as he calmed his emotions. No... this should be it. Cheng Sheng's soul was just injured. There shouldn't be any other reason... he thought, his mind working fast. "His body reflected the wound of his soul." He added. That's why only Cheng Sheng's flesh has wound but not his clothes. Had it not for his wound bleeding, they wouldn't know Cheng Sheng was injured - especially his soul. 

"Bastard!" Chen Han yelled as he punched Fei Yin again. Fei Yin, like earlier, didn't fight back. Chen Han glared at Fei Yin with killing intent. He drew his sword from its sheath. 

"Chen Han!" Li Tian called as he pulled Chen Han's arm holding his sword. 

"Stop it!" Sun Yi said as he and Wu Yuan pulled Chen Han and Fei Yin apart. "Can't you see Cheng-shidi's condition? Why are you still fighting? Can't you calm down? What will he feel when he woke up and find you two fought?" he asked them.

Chen Han panted as he unwillingly pushed Fei Yin. "If something happens to Ah Sheng – " he said, warning in his voice. His face is dark because of anger. 

" – I'll pay with my life." Fei Yin said, no fear on his face. He can't live without Cheng Sheng. If Cheng Sheng is gone, then he will kill himself. It's only for Cheng Sheng he is living. Because of Cheng Sheng, he is alive. He is his life. Thus, he almost killed himself back in the space Xie Lan made. However, Xie Lan stopped him in time, telling him there must be other ways to heal Cheng Sheng. 

"Geez! Why are you all so pessimistic?!" Zuo Zhe said and frowned. "He can be treated." He told them.

"You know how?!" Li Tian asked. They don't dare touch Cheng Sheng's soul because of the mysterious Spirit Awakening Method. Thus, when they knew Cheng Sheng's soul was injured, they felt doom. 

"Yes." Zuo Zhe said as he began to write a few sentences in his mind. "Give me a sec – " he told them as words began to appear on his system's screen.

For some reason, Cheng Sheng's soul began its self-repair. The wound slowly closed at a fast rate. In the blink of an eye, the wound is gone. Only the blood on his skin and clothes are the traces that there was a wound on his body before. 

They looked at Zuo Zhe's hand suddenly glowed and covered Cheng Sheng's wound.

"Amazing! How did you do it?!" Lei Ling was shocked.

"Cheng-shixiong… his wound is healing!" You Rou exclaimed and gaped as she watched Cheng Sheng's wound slowly closed.

However, Zuo Zhe didn't answer. "Ha – " he sighed as he felt his energy was depleted and his body swayed. "Yu Sheng…" he called when he felt the familiar warm embrace. He smiled, then leaned on Yu Sheng's chest before he closed his eyes to rest. I knew you'll be there, thus I can let myself fall… he thought as he made himself comfortable in Yu Sheng's arms. 

"What happened to him?" Lei Qing asked as they looked at Zuo Zhe who fell asleep in Yu Sheng's embrace.

"Fatigue." Yu Sheng said and looked at Cheng Sheng's wound that disappeared. "The bleeding stopped." He told them. "Zhe already cured Cheng Sheng's wound... and soul." He said and carried Zuo Zhe in a bridal style before they went upstairs.

"What… it's over?! That's it?!" Feng Mo said as he looked at Yu Sheng's back in shock. "How did he cure Cheng-shidi?" he asked, referring to Zuo Zhe. 

"Aren't they from the north? Perhaps they have a mysterious method?" You Rou asked as she cleaned Cheng Sheng's skin. She used a Cleaning Talisman to clean his clothes. A second after the the blood disappeared from Cheng Sheng's clothes.

"He's amazing to cure Ah Sheng's soul." Chen Han said as he looked upstairs. He's referring to Zuo Zhe. 

"… didn't we forget something?" Li Tian asked.

"Ah." they said and looked upstairs. "Yu Sheng didn't tell us who is Cheng-shidi to Zuo Zhe!" Feng Mo exclaimed. 

Upstairs, Yu Sheng stared at Zuo Zhe's sleeping face before he got off the bed. However, before he could leave, he felt his sleeve was caught. He turned and saw Zuo Zhe is awake. "You woke up." He said.

"… are you leaving?" Zuo Zhe asked. Only half of his face can be seen. The other half of his face was hidden by the pillow.

"Yes." Yu Sheng answered. "I have to explain to them your connection to Cheng Sheng." He told him.

"Will you tell them the truth?" Zuo Zhe asked. He came from an interstellar world, and transmigrated to this world.

"No." Yu Sheng answered.

"What will you tell them, then?" Zuo Zhe asked. What alibi will he tell them? He thought, suddenly feeling curious. 

"That you're twins with Cheng Sheng by the soul." Yu Sheng answered, his face is serious.

"… pft." The bed shook as Zuo Zhe laughed. He covered his mouth as he rolled on the bed. His back on Yu Sheng. 

"What's wrong?" Yu Sheng asked.

"Come here – " Zuo Zhe said as he turned and raised his hand to hook his finger to Yu Sheng.

Yu Sheng complied and he leaned down, only to feel something soft touched his cheek.

" – thank you." Zuo Zhe whispered in his ear and then closed his eyes. This time, he truly fell asleep.

"… Zhe." Yu Sheng called and felt Zuo Zhe's grip on his sleeve loosened. However, he caught Zuo Zhe's hand and sat on the side of the bed to watch him sleep. "You tease." He said and kissed him on the forehead. "Good night." He said as he carefully placed Zuo Zhe's hand beside him, then left the room.

Only to see Fei Yin standing outside in the hallway. He's obviously waiting for him.

He didn't wait for Fei Yin to speak. "You want to ask about Ah Zhe?" he directly asked. "I'm on my way to tell you – " he told him.

Fei Yin cut him off. "You're the one who taught Sheng the Spirit Awakening Method." He said and raised his head to look at Yu Sheng. "Yu Sheng." he said as he looked at Yu Sheng in the eyes. 

Yu Sheng's pupils shrank before he laughed. "What are you talking about?" he said and grinned. "What's this Spirit Method something?" he asked, acting puzzled. He wanted to see Fei Yin's reaction and what he will do. 

Fei Yin's expression didn't change. "How can Zuo Zhe cure Sheng's soul if you didn't tell him about the Spirit Awakening Method?" he asked. 

"Zhe's got nothing to do with the method." Yu Sheng said.

Fei Yin stared at him.

Yu Sheng finally admitted it. He sighed and scratched his head. "I was planning to just leave with Zhe after having fun with the competition to amuse him… haaa." He sighed and looked at Fei Yin. He frowned in dislike. This guy is too smart. He thought. 

"… you're too doting of him." Fei Yin told him. He's obviously referring to Zuo Zhe. 

"Aren't you, towards Cheng Sheng?" Yu Sheng said and grinned. He leaned on the door frame and crossed his chest. "You're right. I'm the one who saved your home before, and saved him… helped him." He said.

"Why?" Fei Yin asked.

"I can't tell you." Yu Sheng said.

Fei Yin balled his fists before he sighed in defeat. "What about Zuo Zhe?" he asked. "How did he cure Sheng's soul?" he added. 

"Zhe… he's from outside of this world." Yu Sheng answered. "But, he came because of Cheng Sheng." he said and waited for Fei Yin to react. "You believe me?" he grinned when he saw Fei Yin's expression didn't even change. This guy is tough. He thought. 

"Yes." Fei Yin said and looked at Yu Sheng in the eyes. "Since I'm also not from this world." He told him, his dark eyes lacked emotion and looked inhumane. "I came for Sheng." He added.
