Chapter 641 - The Scum Is Roasted
Chapter 641 – The Scum Is Roasted
Everyone turned to look at Ho Yue and Ho Ting whose expressions are icy as they watched the Shanliangde Sect disciples are being beaten. Ho Ting's expression is dark as he looked at Ling Yun's bloody appearance. His heart feels very distressed.
Ho Yue took a deep breath. "Capture Qi Lan first. Then, we will talk after." He told them.
Everyone nodded in agreement. This is their only choice. Unfortunately, like that bastard Ke Lu before, they can't apprehend Qi Lan right now since Qi Lan is a participant. They can only do so after this stage ends. But, since Ho Yue assured them that Qi Lan is not an enemy, then they secretly sighed in relief that Qi Lan would cooperate with them and give them a proper explanation.
"Leader Zheng." Zheng Ming called and respectfully bowed to Zheng Fu Gong when the other turned. "Everyone." He turned to them and gave them a bow. "Elder Li of the Xinfaxian Sect asked me to deliver a message." He said and stood upright. "'We have already extracted information from then bastard. He said that he, through the talisman that he used to control the leader of the demons, made the qi of the participants that the leader of the demons attacked berserk. There is no way to treat it and that they can only die.'" He finished.
A long silence fell before one curse after another was heard. "FCK! DMN IT!" they all loudly cursed.
At first, they didn't believe it. But since the soul of that bastard was extracted by Wu Bai and became Wu Bai's puppet, they believe that that bastard wouldn't lie. In short, their disciples would really die!
"… sect leader Sun destroyed senior Wu's puppet into pieces." Zheng Ming told them.
"Uncle Wu Bai must have been mad?" Chen Han asked as he tried to suppress his anger.
"… no. The puppet senior Wu used was of the lowest quality and cheapest, and the dirtiest so the culprit gone mad after they break it to him as soon as they finished extracting information from him." Zheng Ming answered.
Everyone's lip twitched. "…" really ruthless. They thought and looked away.
"Qi going berserk… isn't this similar to Er Zi's situation?" Fan Wen nervously asked.
But, as soon as his voice fell, they heard Fei Yinzi say that the condition of the Shanliangde Sect disciples and Wu Tie is less serious than his.
They all sighed in relief. "As expected of Er Zi!" they said.
"No. It was due to him undergoing in the same condition that he now knows how to evaluate this kind of situation." A voice spoke.
They all turned, and they were surprised to see that Cheng Sheng has now woke up! "Cheng Sheng!" they cried.
Fei Yin smiled as he fixed Cheng Sheng's hair and clothes that were disheveled when he slept. "You really woke up just to roast your disciple, hm?" he told him.
"Only when one knows hardship would they learn from it." Cheng Sheng said.
Fei Yin chuckled.
"Cheng Sheng." It was Wu Tong. "My son… my son…" he cried.
Cheng Sheng turned to him. "Sect leader Wu." He called. "Sect leader Sun." he turned.
Everyone also turned and saw Sun Yu arrived together with Li Tian and Feng Mo who have dark expression on their faces.
"Cheng Sheng." Sun Yu called.
Cheng Sheng looked at him, then sighed. "You don't need to worry that much." He said.
"… huh?" they blinked. No need to worry? Has Cheng Sheng's brain gone wrong after he used that strange talisman? They thought.
Cheng Sheng's lip twitched, guessing their thoughts. It is your brains that have gone wrong! He inwardly roared. "As Er Zi said, the condition of the Shanliangde Sect disciples as well as Wu Tie is less serious than his." He spoke. "It may be an almost life and death situation, but just 'almost'. The risk is lesser than the risk when Er Zi was treated." He explained. "Wen Wen should know how to do this, and he can guide Cui Xiang." He said.
"Is… is that true?!" Wu Tong asked. his eyes are red from crying.
"En." Cheng Sheng nodded.
Everyone finally sighed in relief.
"Xiao Sheng." It was Xie Lan. "That bastard said that talisman can make one's qi go berserk. Now that there is a method to treat the participants… how about you?" he asked.
"Huh?" they said when they heard what Xie Lan said.
"You used that talisman directly while the participants were harmed indirectly." Xie Lan said. "How is your qi?" he asked him.
Everyone's eyes widened. They now understood. They anxiously looked at Cheng Sheng.
But, Cheng Sheng grinned. "Founder. I actually should thank that bastard for giving me this 'gift'." He said.
"… huh?" they blankly looked at him. has his brain really gone wrong? They thought as they looked at him suspiciously.
Cheng Sheng is in a good mood so he ignored them. "Instead of my qi going berserk… well, my qi already was going berserk since my cultivation method is restructuring my body according to it." He said. "Now, I felt that my qi, instead of going more berserk, actually became stable." He told them.
"… what?!" they exclaimed.
Cheng Sheng nodded in affirmation. "Yes. my qi has now become stable." He said.
"How… how did that happen?!" they asked, feeling that this is incredible.
"Berserk against berserk. There was a clash and I should have died." Cheng Sheng said.
Everyone froze and their faces turned pale in horror. "What?!" they exclaimed.
"Ah Sheng, you… you just went through life and death?!" Chen Han exclaimed as his eyes turned red.
Everyone also understood. Cheng Sheng almost died again!
"How can I just die, now that I have da shixiong again?" Cheng Sheng frowned.
Fei Yin, whose chest tightened when he heard that Cheng Sheng almost died again, smiled and sighed in relief seeing his lover's usual carefree expression.
Everyone. "…" why do we have to be fed dog food again?! I quit! They all thought, though they are just joking when they said that they are quitting. "So… how did you manage to live?" they asked.
Cheng Sheng's eyes flashed. "Through my own will." He answered.
Everyone was moved, and their eyes reddened. That's right. How can Cheng Sheng die? He is the one who doesn't want to die the most, especially now that Fei Yin is here! He also has families and friends, and he wanted to sweep away these foreign enemies! So, Cheng Sheng can't die!
"Good! Good!" Zheng Fu Gong sighed in relief and his body finally relaxed.
He is already old, and he is really thankful that Cheng Sheng is here to share half of his burdens, despite Cheng Sheng claiming it his and didn't even want a position of an elder in the Righteous Alliance. This made him not know whether to laugh or cry. In the beginning, Cheng Sheng already declared that he hates responsibilities, so he definitely doesn't want to be tied by anything, and just wanted to live a carefree life.
But, he assumed these burdens because his peace was threatened. Zheng Fu Gong was torn between laughing and crying again. Cheng Sheng really is an unpredictable person. He actually already hinted to him many times before that he wanted to give him the position of alliance leader. But, Cheng Sheng's expression was disgusted. Not because he is disgusted with the Righteous Alliance. It was because he is disgusted because he will be tied again. Thus, Zheng Fu Gong can only admit defeat and pass the alliance leader position to Zheng Yi in the future.
But, who would expect that even Zheng Yi doesn't want it? Zheng Yi even said before that he wanted for him to give the position to Cheng Sheng. But, he also already expected for Cheng Sheng to disagree. Why? Because Cheng Sheng only wanted to be with his lover. This is also Zheng Yi's reason for declining the alliance leader position from his grandfather: Zheng Yi wanted to be with Jing Bai.
Zheng Fu Gong almost fainted on the spot. No one wanted the alliance leader position, the most honorable and prestigious position! What the hell! Zheng Fu Gong almost coughed out blood at that instant. He went to visit Su Yuan then, wanting to complain and also tell him that he will pass the alliance leader position to him.
But, what Zheng Fu Gong got was only being blasted right on his face out of the cave. "…" he really wanted to curse, and he did. But, what can he do? No one wanted the alliance leader position, not even Pai Lie who is only obsessed in Array Drawing! If not wanting to be with their lover (aka Zheng Yi and Cheng Sheng), then, they were obsessed with their hobby and cultivation (aka Pai Lie and Su Yuan)!
In rage, he drunk that night.. Then, the next day, he resumed his daily work with a hangover.
