The Scum Is A ***

Dongfang Town, nine in the morning.

"Cheng… shi… xiong!!!" Xiao Le called as he jumped mid-air and pounced on Cheng Sheng.

Cheng Sheng waved his hand and Bai Tan immediately moved, dodging Xiao Le's 'attack'. Xiao Le's eyes widened in shock. Not because Cheng Sheng dodged him. He has always been used to Cheng Sheng's rudeness. But, it was because he was about to fall, face first, on the ground.

"Waaaah!" he screamed and closed his eyes tight and waited for the pain to arrive when his face hits the ground.

But, the expected pain didn't arrive. It was instead Shu Mu! Shu Mu's figure flashed and he appeared before Xiao Le and caught him. "Whoa! Be careful there!" Shu Mu said as he readjusted Xiao Le's position in his arms.

"Mu-ge!" Xiao Le cried. "Thanks!" he told him before he turned to Cheng Sheng. He looked at him with a pair of aggrieved eyes. "Wuwuwu… Cheng-shixiong, you are still as mean as ever QAQ!" he said and pouted his lips, which Shu Mu kissed.

"My Lele is as adorable as ever." Shu Mu said after he kissed Xiao Le. "How can your Cheng-shixiong be your Cheng-shixiong if he is not mean?" he asked and turned, grinning to Cheng Sheng who got off Bai Tan. "Hey. I didn't expect you to still have that Help Talisman." He said.

"You still came here, right?" Cheng Sheng spoke. His expression is indifferent as ever.

"True." Shu Mu helplessly smiled and placed Xiao Le down when he felt Xiao Le patted his back. "So, you want me to escort you to Zhongyang? Why didn't you use the teleportation array, instead?" he asked. He still remembered that there is an array inside the Yunxiao Inn that leads to the Xinfaxian Sect.

"My disciple can't use it." Cheng Sheng answered.

"Your disciple?" Shu Mu muttered. "Right. You have one." He said when he remembered.

"You are all over xiao Le that you forget everything around you." Cheng Sheng frowned.

"Cheng-shixiong! You brought your disciple?! Where is he?!" Xiao Le asked, looking very excited as he looked around.

"Oh. I asked him to buy me some snacks." Cheng Sheng answered as he dismissively waved his hand. Bai Tan immediately wrapped around his shoulder. "Anyway, there is another thing I want to ask you." He spoke as he looked at them. His carefree expression is now gone. "Did you find anything?" he asked in a low voice.

Immediately, the smile on Shu Mu's and Xiao Le's faces are gone. "Cheng-shixiong…" Xiao Le called in a small voice as his eyes turned red. "I am sorry. But, we didn't find his corpse." He answered as his tears fell.

Shu Mu immediately patted his back to comfort him.

Cheng Sheng froze. Then, he bitterly smiled. "It is not your fault." He spoke in a gentle voice laced with exhaustion.

After their battle with Wu Ran, the ground was split and the Abyss was formed. Half of the Millennium Ship fell into the Abyss. And in that half of the Millennium Ship is Fei Yin's corpse. When Cheng Sheng woke up after his coma, he heard this news. He immediately went back to the Shashan Pass which has disappeared to look for Fei Yin's corpse. But, he couldn't find it. Instead, he found the foul air which is worse, more dangerous than the demonic qi, coming out of the Abyss.

Knowing that he has weakened, Cheng Sheng called for help. Fortunately, he did. Since the demons came out of the Abyss. They immediately killed them, but the demons seemed endless so they could only retreat. At some point, the others thought that Fei Yin's corpse was already eaten by the demons. Or that, Fei Yin was reborn as a demon.

Because he has weakened, the others persuaded Cheng Sheng to go back and rest and they will help him find Fei Yin. Fei Lin, as Fei Yin's elder brother, and Xi Ling volunteered. As well as Shu Mu and Xiao Le, who are wandering in the South Region to help the people. Qian Shan and the Qianxu Sect also said that they will immediately send him the news if they will see Fei Yin's corpse.

Suddenly, Cheng Sheng felt torn. He knows that Fei Yin will come back, but what if he will see his corpse and think that Fei Yin really has died? So, does he really want to see his corpse? The others think that he is in denial. But, Cheng Sheng is the one who knows the most how Fei Yin has left this world. He made him leave.

"Shizun." A voice called from behind them.

Cheng Sheng, Shu Mu and Lei Ling turned and saw Fei Yinzi standing behind them. Shu Mu and Xiao Le suddenly froze and felt awkward, and also guilty. They were just talking with Cheng Sheng about Cheng Sheng's dead lover, and here is the child who has the same name as Cheng Sheng's dead lover, and also Cheng Sheng's disciple.

But, unlike Shu Mu's and Xiao Le's expression, Cheng Sheng looked rather calm. "That's 'shifu' for you." He spoke and opened his palm. "Where is my snacks?" he asked.

Fei Yinzi's expression didn't change. Shu Mu and Xiao Le watched him took out a qiankun pouch. They can't read from Fei Yinzi's expression whether Fei Yinzi heard what they are talking about or not. But, they know that Fei Yinzi already knows that the name of his shifu's dead lover is 'Fei Yin'.

"Here, shizun." Fei Yinzi spoke and handed the qiankun pouch to Cheng Sheng before he turned and bowed to Shu Mu and Xiao Le. "Elder Shu. Elder Xiao. Hello." He greeted.

Xiao Le, now married to Shu Mu, has joined the Nanshu Sect while Shu Mu, who was expected to inherit the Nanshu Sect, chose to travel with Xiao Le while helping the people in need along their way.

"ER ZI!!!" Xiao Le has recovered from his shock and exclaimed. He hugged Fei Yinzi tight and then squeezed his cheeks as he smiled brightly. "Aww…. Er Zi's getting more and more handsome!" he said.

"Is he more handsome than I, Lele?" Shu Mu asked as he grinned.

"Of course my Mu-ge is the most handsome!" Xiao Le immediately answered, buttering up to his husband who is faking his jealousy.

"OI. I am still here!" Cheng Sheng spoke.

Shu Mu chuckled and kissed Xiao Le before he turned to look at Fei Yinzi. "Yo, kiddo. You have become stronger than the last time that we met!" he said as he nodded at Fei Yinzi. "Good job. You are not slacking off. You should live up to your master's name!" he told him.

Cheng Sheng just opened the qiankun pouch containing the snacks that Fei Yinzi bought, ignoring them three. He called Bai Tan and the Shapeshifting Blanket on his shoulders turned to a wide, magic blanket and carried Cheng Sheng.

"Let's go to Zhongyang. We should arrive before afternoon." He told them.

Shu Mu, Xiao Le and Fei Yinzi nodded. "Yes!" they answered as they boarded their swords.

Cheng Sheng glanced at Fei Yinzi flying beside him. He can't help but inwardly sigh. This child is really talented. He thought. It was just a few days ago that he taught Fei Yinzi how to use his sword as a flying vehicle and the child already mastered it. He thought back to when the child was vomiting because of nausea and has his legs shaking and head wobbling because of dizziness after he took him to fly as his punishment.

Now, Fei Yinzi is calmly flying beside Bai Tan. Cheng Sheng doesn't know if this is a blessing or a curse for him, as he can see the similarly talented Fei Yin in Fei Yinzi, which is mentally and emotionally torturing him, leaving him pain and exhaustion every time.

That damn Fei Yin! Cheng Sheng thought as his face suddenly darkened. He promised me… uh, no. it was Xi Tong. Fei Yin should have returned now! Yet where is he?! He frowned as he clenched his fists, pulverizing the nuts inside his hand. He never knew Fei Yin could be so mean! He knows that he is waiting for him to return. He has already defeated the Devourer, yet he is still nowhere in sight! He inwardly complained.

"Shizun?" he heard Fei Yinzi's voice called.

For a split second, Cheng Sheng thought he heard the young Fei Yin called him. But, the address made Cheng Sheng felt like being splashed by a cold water, and he suddenly felt like he has been slapped awake.

That's right… he thought as he lowered his eyelids to hide the emotions in his eyes. "Shu Mu. Xiao Le." He called with a shaking voice as he tried to suppress the emotions bubbling inside his chest.

Shu Mu's and Xiao Le's eyes flashed with alarm and they immediately flew beside Cheng Sheng after they saw Cheng sheng's pale complexion.
