The Scum Is A ***

Their group was led to the biggest inn. They were then served with food and drinks.

"So rogue cultivators can also participate in the Intersect Competition?" someone asked from the other table.

"Yes." Feng Mo nodded. "There would also be talents outside of the sect, so the competition is also open for the rogue cultivators. They will also be given the chance to enter a sect." He explained. Also, the sects will use to chance to show their significance through their disciples displaying their talents, and will shine during the competition. In short, this is a win-win situation for the sects. They can raise their fame through their disciples who will also rise in fame in the competition.

Of course, this is only if the premise that the disciples will perform well. If not, their sect will only be drag down along with them. Feng Mo couldn't tell this, of course. So he left these words unsaid.

"I want to try!" someone said.

"I will, too!"

The Xinfaxian sect disciples remained silent. There's no need to warn them about the dangers of the competition, since they themselves are aware of it. Only those who are brave will join the competition.

The seven of them roamed around the Dongxin Town, and Cheng Sheng, Fei Yin, Feng Mo and Li Tian can see how the town improved. Lei Qing and You Rou were pulled by the women to ask about skincare. Lei Ling was pulled by the children to play, while Li Tian and Feng Mo were held up by the youths about their education and martial arts. They were planning to be cultivators in the future!

The ones left are Cheng Sheng and Fei Yin. Cheng Sheng bartered some goods with the residents while Fei Yin silently accompanied him. When the sun sank on behind the mountains, the seven of them returned to the inn for dinner.

"I'm too full…" Cheng Sheng said as he leaned on his seat and rubbed his round belly. He looked like a pregnant man. "What are your plans for tonight?" he asked them.

"Some girls wanted to buy Rejuvenating Pills from me. I'll stay up tonight to make them. I'll sell them tomorrow before we leave." You Rou answered.

"That's good, shimei. You can practice more your skills." Li Tian told her. "I'm going to learn more spells and try to modify them." He said.

"I'll accompany You-shimei. I want to learn what herbs can be used for wounds." Lei Qing said.

"I'll make more Balance Talismans tonight!" Lei Ling said. Since he and You Rou never used their sword, they never flew on their sword, either. They only relied on alchemy and their diligence in meditation to gain their golden core. Thus, when they tried flying for the first time, they felt fear and fell. Thus, You Rou rode with Lei Qing and Lei Ling rode with Feng Mo.

Lei Ling and You Rou are still in low-level Golden Core Stage. Li Tian made a breakthrough and he's now at mid-level Golden Core Stage, together with Feng Mo, Lei Qing. Cheng Sheng and Fei Yin reached the high-level Golden Core Stage. The two were reaching the peak-level. If, by chance, they would break through Nascent Soul Stage – the restriction of the competition… they didn't dare think about it.

"I'll send a message with Wu Bai." Feng Mo said. Just as his voice fell, they turned to the ones left – Cheng Sheng and Fei Yin.

"I'll go out to take a walk." Cheng Sheng said. He's going to digest the food he ate.

"Cheng-shidi is now openly sneaking out?" Fei Yin spoke.

The five people immediately fled to do their own matters. "Da shixiong, at least I am informing everybody now?" Cheng Sheng said.

Fei Yin heaved a soft sigh. "I'll accompany you." He told Cheng Sheng. He can't meditate, anyway, or else he might suddenly break through the Nascent Soul Stage.

"Ok!" Cheng Sheng answered.

The two left and walked into the dark of the night, the cold night wind breezing past them. They saw a few people left in the streets tidying up their stalls while some were closing up their stores. Not a trace of demonic qi left, nor the negative qi.

Ever since the Youxiwang Sect survived the demonic cultivators' attack, the demonic cultivators withdrew and retreated to who knows where they came from. The peace finally came back to them. However, it was like the calm before the storm. A big event is upcoming – the Intersect Competition. And the demonic cultivators will definitely make their appearance and attack the competition.

"What do you think shifu, founder and our shidis are doing now in the sect?" Cheng Sheng started the conversation. The night is silent and Fei Yin isn't speaking. He can't stand the silence, so he decided to speak.

"Probably thinking if you sneaked out tonight again." Fei Yin answered with a smile.

Cheng Sheng's brow twitched. He decided to not speak again. In the Xinfaxian, Xie Lan wrapped a blanket around Fan Wen who was standing outside, staring at the sky. His face is filled with anxiety.

"This is the first time they will be leaving the sect on their own." Fan Wen said. Before, Cheng Sheng, Fei Yin, Feng Mo and Li Tian were with Chen Han and flew to Xiwang at the fastest speed. However, now, the four are only with their fellow disciples- and they had to look after them. Fan Wen is the sole elder of the sect, and Xie Lan is the sect leader. Neither Xie Lan nor Fan Wen can accompany the seven disciples in case the demonic cultivators might attack. They had to protect both their disciples and the residents of the Xinfaxian.

"I thought you're worrying Xiao Sheng sneaking out again." Xie Lan laughed.

"That, too!" Fan Wen said, but a smile was on his face. Although he said that, but his tense shoulders now relaxed. "How are they now, you think?" he turned to Xie Lan.

"They will be fine." Xie Lan answered. "They aren't those brats before. They all now have grown up." He told Fan Wen.

Fan Wen heaved a sigh. "Even so, I still prefer them before. That way – " he said. " – they will still listen to me, and they won't find themselves in danger."

"Wen…" Xie Lan lowered his gaze. Then, he hugged him from behind. "You can't keep them forever. However – " he said and faced Fan Wen to him. " – you can teach them so that they can protect themselves from danger." He told him.

"Hmn."
