The Scum Is A ***

Chapter 660 – The Scum Is Spiteful

The audience also wanted to ask 'who'. Meanwhile, Sun Yu feels like he is about to faint.

"Xi He!" Jing Xu answered.

Sun Yu's whole body froze and cracked. The others were also surprised.

"Xi He?! Why him?!" Jing De asked in surprise.

"Why can't it be him?" Jing Xu crossed his arms. "He is a lone wolf! And, it isn't clear as to what level is his cultivation now!" he explained.

"OH!" Jing De exclaimed.

Everyone. "… oh." They muttered, almost believed what Jing Xu said, that it was Xi He who is the culprit, had they not seen with their own eyes who the real culprit is. And the real culprit is now having his sweet moment with He Shun whom he is wooing. "…" poor Shanliangde Sect. Poor Xi He. They thought as they casted a sympathetic look with Sun Yu.

Fortunately, Xie Lan wasn't that spiteful to laugh at Sun Yu at this moment since Sun Yu is now on the verge of exploding. Well, maybe he also doesn't want to fight Sun Yu since fighting isn't his intention. He just wanted to 'tease'.

Meanwhile, Jing Rui's expression is blank as he looked at Jing Xu in disbelief. Jing Cheng, Jing Bai and Jing Hei wanted to dig a hole to bury Jing Xu now. They suddenly doubt life. Why did Jing Xu's brain suddenly deteriorated?! They thought and helplessly sighed as they placed a palm on their foreheads, feeling their heads hurt.

Why is it that when they don't need Jing Xu to be smart, he is smart, but when they needed him to be smart, his IQ suddenly goes offline? They thought as they gnashed their teeth in anger. Is this really the effect of being with Jing De, this idiot, always?! They thought and took a deep breath to calm themselves, lest they would snap in anger as they looked at Jing Xu's foolish performance.

But, it is not as if they can separate Jing De and Jing Xu. They are brothers! Also, it is not as if it is Jing Xu's fault to think in this direction, passing the black pot (blame) to the other participants, since the Xinfaxian Sect disciples are just really too good in acting, and also pitting the other participants!

Thinking this, they all looked at the Xinfaxian Sect. Fan Wen's brow twitched in irritation while Xie Lan just grinned. Blame these people for raising these disciples! They thought and their gazes fell on Cheng Sheng. Especially this person! They added in their minds.

It was Cheng Sheng's turn for his brow to twitch in irritation. Why do they always blame him?! He has done nothing wrong! He is innocent! He thought. It is not as if he is the one competing right now and is pitting the participants! he added.

It was as if the sect leaders and elders thought of this, too, and they finally withdrew their gazes on the Xinfaxian Sect, especially Cheng Sheng. Indeed, it was not Cheng Sheng's fault, but their own disciples' fault for being too lacking compared with the Xinfaxian Sect disciples in terms of strategizing. They thought and helplessly sighed. Even if their own disciples might be stronger than the Xinfaxian Sect disciples, but strength isn't absolute when faced against a strategy. Even an ant can topple an elephant.

Thinking this, they can only sigh more, admiring the brilliance of the Xinfaxian Sect disciples in terms of strategy, and also talent. Before, they thought that sword cultivators are mighty and are superior than the mages. This is also the reason why there were not many that wanted to be mages. They would rather struggle in order to become a sword cultivator than become a mage!

But, Cheng Sheng's existence broke this prejudice. Not only is Cheng Sheng both a sword cultivator and a mage, he also proved to everyone that mages aren't weak! Instead, they can be stronger than the sword cultivators! Wasn't this what currently is going on? Look at their disciples who are strong sword cultivators being toyed by Cui Xiao, a mage, as she commanded her fellow disciples, Qi Lan and He Shun to go against the other participants.

It is not that the other sects didn't prepare for this year's competition. It is just that the Xinfaxian Sect disciples really caught them off-guard! It was just like the previous Intersect Competition where Cheng Sheng caught them all with a storm he created. Since then, the mages slowly but surely rose. In short, Cheng Sheng is a legend!

"Qi Lan…" Ho Ting frowned as he and Ho Yue watched Qi Lan act as He Shun's guard. "Did he really fall in love with He Shun?" he asked as he looked at his uncle.

Ho Yue fell silent as he observed Qi Lan. "Only time can prove this." He said and with a sigh.

Ho Ting didn't say anything anymore since he knows that what his uncle said is the truth. Only time can reveal the truth.

"Hey." Kang Ce called them. "Setting aside the participants, don't forget that there are still xiao Bao and xiao Ling." he reminded them as he looked at xiao Bao and xiao Ling who are up the tree and are watching Tang Li and Li Yan. He is anxious for Li Yan.

Recalling these two sword spirits, everyone's faces instantly darkened. That's right! There are also xiao Bao and xiao Ling! they all thought as their eyes flashed with worry. But, it is not only them who are worried. The Xinfaxian Sect elders, too!

"Xiao Yin." Fan Wen called Fei Yin. "Xiao Bao and xiao Ling… what are they planning to do?" he asked.

"They still haven't made their moves yet." Feng Mo frowned as he looked at xiao Bao and xiao Ling who left where Tang Li and Li Yan are and appeared where Wen Yan and Zhu Xi are!

The sect leaders and other elders saw that the Xinfaxian Sect elders are also anxious. It is reasonable, though, since xiao Bao and xiao Ling are also targeting the Xinfaxian Sect disciples albeit their masters are elders of the Xinfaxian Sect! Not to mention that xiao Bao and xiao Ling actually hit the Xinfaxian Sect disciples harder than the other participants!

"I just hope it won't be that bad…" Li Tian nervously said as he stared at xiao Bao's and xiao Ling's figures.

Chen Han saw his lover's anxious expression and he hugged him to assure him. "Ah Sheng, what are xiao Bao and xiao Ling thinking?" he asked his younger brother.

Cheng Sheng shrugged. "I don't know." He answered.

"… huh?" they said and suspiciously looked at him. Their suspicion isn't unwarranted, since xiao Ling is Cheng Sheng's sword spirit, after all.

Cheng Sheng heaved a sigh, knowing what they are thinking. But, he is really innocent! He inwardly cried without tears.

Fei Yin saw his lover's expression and he smiled. He held Cheng Sheng's hand before he turned to them all. "What Cheng-shidi said is right. We really don't know what xiao Bao and xiao Ling are planning to do." He told them.

"… really?" they said and, this time, they didn't bother to hide their suspicious gazes.

Fei Yin doesn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Really." He nodded. "This is because we made a deal." He told them.

They were all taken aback. "… 'deal'?" they looked at Fei Yin in surprise.

"Yes." Fei Yin nodded. "Before the competition started, xiao Ling has just regained his human form while xiao Bao is still making his human form more stable." He started. "I also have just woken up recently, while Cheng-shidi's body has become unstable because of his cultivation method." He looked at them.

They nodded, indicating that they remembered.

"We just can't leave our sword spirits, who have gained their own consciousness and even gained their human form, like that albeit we, their masters, have our own problems." Fei Yin continued. "So, Cheng-shidi proposed a deal with the two." He said.

"What is this deal?" they curiously asked. Though, they are also touched about Fei Yin's and Cheng Sheng's concern for their sword spirits.

"Cheng-shidi, in order to have the two train themselves to maintain their human forms, gave them a task." Fei Yin said. "That is, to interfere with the participants in the Intersect Competition." He told them.

Everyone's lips twitched. Indeed, this way, not only can xiao Bao and xiao Ling do their training, but this also adds more excitement to the Intersect Competition! They thought. Only Cheng Sheng can think this way!

"This is their end of the deal. What about your end of the deal?" Wu Yuan asked.

Everyone started and perked their ears up.

Fei Yin smiled. "That Cheng-shidi will provide them magic pills and potions to make themselves stronger, enabling them to keep their human forms longer." He answered.

Everyone's eyes widened in surprise as they looked at Cheng Sheng. What the hell! Cheng Sheng's magic pills and potions are very precious! Yet he can give them to two sword spirits this way?!
