The Scum Is A ***

Hearing this, Tang Li and Li Yan were stunned and can't help a chill ran down their spine. "WHAT?!" they exclaimed when they finally found their voice.

"Fortunately… fortunately, we split up earlier. Or else…" Tang Li spoke as his face paled.

Li Yan nodded in agreement and coldly sweated. "Er Zi, your master… really dug a very big pit for us this time." he grimaced.

Fei Yinzi's face remained wooden. He also didn't expect for Cheng Sheng to do this.

"What happened?" Wen Wen and Cui Xiang asked after they heard their loud voices.

Ling Yun turned to them and explained to them everything. As soon as his voice fell, Wen Wen and Cui Xiang froze on the spot. Their faces had a look of grievance after they have been 'betrayed' by Cheng Sheng.

Fei Yinzi coughed awkwardly. "Let us wait for the others first so that we can organize everything." He told them.

"Yes!" they agreed.

…

"FCK!" Xi He cursed when he saw that Wu Tie and Jin Yu had taken the lead.

"What happened?" Xi Bing asked as they finally had found a place to rest.

"Wu Tie and Jin Yu have taken the lead!" Xi He answered.

Fei Luo's face darkened. They didn't have any time to check on the rankings since they are very busy fleeing from xiao Bing.

"Wait." Sun Yan has a different idea. "It was only xiao Bing who attacked us, so xiao Ling should be attacking others." He spoke. "Judging from the points shown, Wu Tie and Jin Yu should have been attacked, too, and by xiao Ling. But, why were the points taken from them didn't decrease much?" he asked.

Upon hearing this, Xi Bing, Fei Luo and Sun Ri started. They are smart so they immediately understood.

But, Xi He is still blinded by rage. "What do you imply? They are cheating?!" he asked.

"No." Sun Yan frowned. "I mean that there should be a condition in xiao Bing and xiao Ling stealing points from us." he answered.

Xi He was taken aback.

"The number of people." Fei Luo flatly said. Fei Huo's face paled when he heard it.

"This is forcing us to split up." Sun Ri sighed.

Sun Yan turned to him. "It is time for you to seek shelter in the Xinfaxian Sect's and Youxiwang Sect's base." He told her.

Sun Ri's eyes widened. "No!" she answered.

Sun Yan smiled. "Ah Ri, you will just drag me." He said.

Sun Ri froze.

"Not only due to your strength, but also the points that will be decreased." Sun Yan continued. "Ah Ri. Don't worry. I won't let you be eliminated. Let me work for the two of us, okay?" he said and patted her head.

Sun Ri's tears fell and she slapped Sun Yan's hand away before she ran away. Sun Yan sighed, feeling helpless.

"'splitting up'? This suits me more!" Xi He said and scoffed before he flew away. When he passed by Sun Yan, he turned to him. "I'll escort her to their base." He said before he followed Sun Ri.

That meant that Xi He will go solo. Well, it really suits him. He doesn't want anyone to cause him to lose more points other than himself. This way, he can also cause trouble for Wu Tie to distract them.

Fei Luo, Fei Huo, Xi Bing and Sun Yan who were left looked at each other. Fei Huo coldly sweated since he is aware that he is the weakest among them. He doesn't want to be abandoned. He looked at his elder brother with a pleading gaze. But, before he could open his mouth to speak, Xi Bing spoke.

"I have a suggestion." Xi Bing said.

They all looked at him.

"We wanted for our sect to be the first, right? Then, we have to find out all of the conditions of xiao Bao and xiao Ling stealing the points. Or else, we will just continue to make mistakes and eventually fall down to the bottom." Xi Bing said.

They all fell silent.

"What do you suggest?" Sun Yan asked.

Xi Bing turned to him. "You and Fei Luo are the fastest among all of us. Instead of all of us remain passive, you can go tail xiao Bao and xiao Ling." He answered, before he paused. "I think, they should have a limit to their attacks. If there wasn't, the participants will be in a disadvantageous position. The Righteous Alliance and elder Cheng wouldn't pit us greatly as much as we are already in." he explained.

Fei Luo, Sun Yan and Fei Huo. "…" well…

The audience who are watching, including the sect leaders, the Righteous Alliance and the elders. "…" this is true…

Cheng Sheng, the culprit along with Zheng Yi, just smiled. Everyone felt their fists itched when they saw that he really doesn't look guilty! In the end, they can only sigh and felt pity towards the participants for being so unlucky.

…

"You have a point." Fei Luo muttered as he pondered over it.

Xi Bing didn't react.

"Ge…" Fei Huo called.

Fei Luo turned to him and his expression turned complicated. He wanted to win, but he can't just leave his brother alone, no matter how annoying and a drag Fei Huo is.

"I will look after him." Xi Bing spoke.

Fei Luo and Fei Huo turned to look at him.

Sun Yan imperceptibly smiled. "That's right. If we add Xi Bing, we will lose more points." He explained. "Moreover, who will look after Fei Huo?" he asked and stared at Fei Luo who is still hesitating. "You wanted to win, and only you and I can accomplish this task. Xi Bing also wouldn't abandon Fei Huo. I assure you that." He told him.

Fei Luo stared at Sun Yan. He wanted to ask what does Sun Yan meant by the last sentence but his thoughts were interrupted when a Message Talisman flew towards them.

"It is from Xi He." Xi Bing spoke after he read the contents. "He has safely sent Sun Ri to the Xinfaxian Sect's and Youxiwang Sect's base and they warmly welcomed them, especially her teammates during the second stage." He told them.

Hearing this, Sun Yan sighed in relief.

"Should I send Fei Huo to them, too?" Fei Luo asked, still, feeling worried about Fei Huo.

"No." Xi Bing answered.

They looked at him.

"Although those sects are good people, Fei Huo wouldn't want that, right?" Xi Bing looked at Fei Huo who nodded. "Also, Fei Huo won't be able to grow up if he would always just depend on you, or this time, on them if you will send him to them." he added.

Fei Luo froze, taken aback by what Xi Bing said. He glared at Xi Bing before he pulled Fei Huo with him and they went to a corner to talk.

"Ai. Why do you have be so fierce to my wife?" Sun Yan whispered to Xi Bing. "Fine. I won't take this against you since you are helping me get rid of that sticky Fei Huo." He said.

Xi Bing glared at him. "…" and this is not taking against me by calling Fei Huo 'sticky'? He thought and frowned. "Don't call him that." He said.

Sun Yan shrugged. They already have helped each other. Sun Ri is also safe with the Xinfaxian Sect and Youxiwang Sect's base while Xi He can do whatever he wanted in this stage. They can also figure out some conditions in this arrangement. This is due to Xi Bing's and Sun Yan's plan, just to obtain Fei Luo and Fei Huo.

…

Meanwhile, Fei Luo and Fei Huo who aren't aware of being 'targeted', stood on the side and is surrounded by silence. Although Fei Luo pulled Fei Huo here to talk, neither of them are talking.

In the end, the ineloquent Fei Luo coughed to relieve the awkwardness. "You really don't want to go to the Xinfaxian Sect and Youxiwang Sect?" he asked.

Fei Huo pursed his lips, feeling aggrieved. "Don't treat me like someone weak!" he said.

Fei Luo froze. He wanted to get angry but, seeing his younger brother silently weep, the anger in his heart dissipated.

"Ge!" Fei Huo cried and hugged Fei Luo.

Fei Luo's figure stiffened. But, he doesn't have the heart to push Fei Huo away. Thus, he can only let the other cry while hugging him.

Sun Yan and Xi Bing watching the two brothers and suddenly felt a pang of guilt. "…" why do we look like the bad guys here from separating these two? They thought and looked at each other before they looked away. No, no… this is the best arrangement! They have to win! They thought, convincing themselves albeit their main objective is to spend time with their beloveds.

…

"It will be alright… your brother is strong!" Cui Xiang comforted the crying Sun Ri while Cui Xiao is patting her back to console her.

Sun Ri can't hold it any longer and hugged Cui Xiao. "Waaah!" she cried.

Wen Wen who was about to hand her the cup of water. "…"

Cui Xiang.. "…" I am the one comforting her yet why did she hug Cui Xiao?! She thought and shrugged before taking the cup of water from Wen Wen and drank it.
