The Scum Is A ***

"Nah. It should have felt tired after chasing us for this long and this far." Cheng Sheng said as he rubbed his chin while looking at the south mountains that looked menacing. "Now, it wants for us to chase it. Does it think we will pursue it? I didn't even pursue fame, so why does it think I'll pursue it? In its dreams!" he laughed.

"…" Fei Yin and Wu Xi. You didn't pursue fame but it pursued you instead. They thought. "Where should we go next?" Fei Yin asked. Wu Xi just quietly watched them.

"Hmm… everyone sold their magic pills, so I had to replace it for them." Cheng Sheng said. "I also had to prepare more, too, since tonight won't be the last time the other sects will buy from us!" he said and grinned as he threw the gold ingot in the air then caught it. "Wu Xi. You prepare, since they will know you come back." He looked at Wu Xi.

Since Wu Xi isn't in the boundary of the forbidden area anymore, Wu Xi's name will reappear in the Cleansing Stone.

"It's convenient you are unable to speak, since they won't interrogate you nor can get answers from you. On the other hand, you catch up to our scores." He told him and patted his shoulder. "I'll be waiting for your monetary consolation prize after this!" he told him and grinned.

Wu Xi nodded. This is the deal he had with Cheng Sheng. In exchange for Qie Shi's life, he will help Cheng Sheng in the third stage and will give to Cheng Sheng the monetary prize he will get if there will be.

Qie Shi was the one who saved him when he's about to die from blood loss after he was injured. He also fed him by sharing with him the foods he stole. Even though he had never spoken with him, but Qie Shi was patient with him. Thus, when he found Qie Shi, he wanted to save him. He was fortunate to run into Shu Mu and be helped by him, then refer him to Cheng Sheng to seek cure for Qie Shi's condition.

"Let's go find some magic herbs first while that thing is still being stupid." Cheng Sheng said as he stretched his limbs. "Let's meet with brother's group and Sun-shixiong after!" he added.

"Yes!" Fei Yin answered while Wu Xi nodded. Then, they split up from Wu Xi.

On the Huakai Sect's side. "Wu Xi came back!" one of the disciples said after they saw the names on the ranking list.

"What?! He's alive?!" the others said in shock as they stared at Wu Xi's name that turned gray like Yu Sheng.

Tang Zhe, Guo Cheng and Shan Lu were stunned. They looked at each other, their eyes are speaking.

"…" Shan Lu who saw Tang Zhe and Guo Cheng are staring at each other. Their expression serious. I really don't get what they're thinking. He thought and scratched his cheek.

"…" Tang Zhe and Guo Cheng who saw Shan Lu's bewildered expression. … we really can't hope for him to pick up. They thought. 

Meanwhile, Tang Yun grinned as he looked at Wu Xi's score skyrocketing. "Another prey…" he said as he licked the blood off his lips.

"…" The Huakai Sect disciples who heard him. Tang-shidi, that's not the prey you should hunt! They thought.

On the Shanliangde Sect's side, Xi Ming and the others were also surprised.

"Wu Xi… he came back…" Fu An muttered under his breath.

"He's really strong to come back from a forbidden area." Xiong Si said.

Xi Xing was, as usually, silent while Gong Xian is still asleep. They were resting after killing waves of monsters and walking corpses.

Xi Ming saw Sun Yi sighed in relief. "Second young master Sun…" he called.

Sun Yi smiled before he scratched his cheek, feeling awkward. "I really misjudged Cheng-shidi…" he said and sadly smiled.

"Sun-shixiong…" Fu An stared at Sun Yi with sympathy.

Xiong Si sighed and patted Sun Yi's shoulder. "It isn't too late to reconcile!" he told him.

"Mn. Thank you." Sun Yi said before he secretly smiled. It's near that time, huh? He thought as he followed the Shanliangde Sect.

On Chen Han's side, their tears fell when they saw Wu Xi's name reappeared.

"Ah Sheng, we misjudged you again…" Chen Han said and sobbed.

"Cheng-shidi… we failed as your shixiongs." Li Tian and Feng Mo said as they cried.

"Cheng Sheng… so he's inherently good, huh?" Yu Sheng said and sadly smiled. He also easily judged Cheng Sheng.

"Cheng-shixiong…! I'm sorry!" Xiao Le said as he fell on his knees and wept.

The Alliance's disciple lowered his head before he closed the Cleansing Stone and left to give them some space. He didn't know that when he left, the five people evilly grinned.

Outside the secret realm, everyone was sniffing as they wiped their tears after they saw Chen Han's group. "So Cheng Sheng really didn't kill Wu Xi…" they said.

"Yeah. It must be an accident on Wu Xi's side. After all, Cheng Sheng needs strong teammates. And Wu Xi is one, compared to Jie Mei." Someone said.

"*sniff Cheng-shixiong…" Lei Ling and You Rou cried while Lei Qing silently wiped her tears and smiled.

"…" Zuo Zhe who saw Cheng Sheng, Fei Yin and Wu Xi on his screen that were planning earlier. Guys, you think too much. And Cheng Sheng's team is really great in acting. They can easily best the film emperors. He thought.

However, things looked like they aren't simple. "What?!" they heard Jing Hei's voice from the Cleansing Stone exclaimed. "Wu Xi's back?!" he said. His eyes are wide in shock.

"Seems so." They heard Jing Bai said.

"Then… then… won't he kill Cheng Sheng?!" Jing Hei said.

The audience was stunned. Wu Xi will kill Cheng Sheng?! Why?! Will he really kill him?! They thought. They found the answer the next second.

Inside the secret realm.

"If Cheng Sheng really wronged Wu Xi, then Wu Xi might." Jing Cheng said.

"What is the truth?" Qian Lin asked and sighed in bewilderment.

"That might not be the case." Jing Kang suddenly said.

"What?" Jing Hei turned to Jing Kang. "Ah Kang. You seem to highly regard Cheng Sheng?" he said as he suspiciously looked at Jing Kang.

"I do. But that's not what I meant." Jing Kang said and turned to the side.

"Huh?" they said and followed Jing Kang's gaze. "…" them when they saw Wu Xi standing not far from them.

"Uhm… we found him." Jing Hei said as they watched Wu Xi nearing them. "W-w-w-wait! What is he doing?!" he exclaimed when they saw Wu Xi unsheathed his sword as he ran towards them.

Jing Kang immediately threw talismans in the air to block Wu Xi's attack when he reached them. A loud noise of collision can be heard and Jing Kang's talisman barrier shook after it emitted sparks when Wu Xi's sword collided on it. "Run!" he told them when he saw the cracks on the barrier. "It seems he lost his mind!" he added and immediately took out more talismans to stall Wu Xi.

"What the hell happened to him?!" Jing Bai asked as they ran, following Jing Kang. Zheng Yi was running beside him.

"He can't distinguish an ally from a foe!" Jing Cheng said, his expression serious while he runs. It's not that they are cowards nor afraid of Wu Xi. But they can't perceive Wu Xi's strength. Added to the fact that Wu Xi is very dangerous… now that he came from a forbidden area which they do not know what the effect of it…

"We can also be considered his foe…" Qian Lin reminded them. They're still in the competition.

"So he will really kill us?! WAH!" Jing Hei exclaimed when Wu Xi suddenly appeared beside him. Qian Lin immediately pulled him to him. So fast! He thought as he looked at the deep crack on the ground. We didn't notice him! He added.

"Ah Hei!" Jing Cheng called as they stopped and faced Wu Xi. "Are you alright?" he asked.

"Yeah… Ah Lin saved me…" Jing Hei said as he and Qian Lin stood up.

"He looks like he's really out of control." Jing Bai said when they saw Wu Xi's body is shaking uncontrollably.

"This is why we advise you to not go to the forbidden area, nor go near it." Zheng Yi said as he raised his fingers and words appeared on top of it. He's also a spell caster.

"He's coming!" Jing Cheng said. Just as his voice fell, his pupils shrank when he saw Wu Xi was already in front of him. His body reacted fast and he blocked with his sword. "Wu Xi!" he called. "You really want to kill us?!" he asked as he kicked him.

Wu Xi saw his foot incoming and he turned his body mid-air to avoid it. He didn't forget to hit Jing Cheng on the head with his head before he landed behind Jing Cheng.

"Ugh!" Jing Cheng groaned when Wu Xi kicked him on the back.

So fast! They all thought. The domineering Jing Cheng was being suppressed!
