Chapter 291: The Scum Is Provocative

"Finally… we've arrived!" Cheng Sheng and Fei Yin exclaimed, their chest heaving up and down as they catch their breath with their hands on their knees. Meanwhile, Wu Yuan leaned his back on a giant boulder and closed his eyes to rest. 

They looked at the grasses beneath their feet and the mountain afar. After ten days since they left the Nanli Town, they have finally found a mountain in the sea of desert. 

"Let's see if we could find a river or a stream and refill our bamboo tubes when we enter the mountain." Cheng Sheng said. 

"En. Maybe we can find some fruits, and some animals we can use as an ingredient." Fei Yin said. It was already five days they haven't eaten a meal. Although they could fast for half a year as high-level cultivators, but it is undeniably better to eat a meal. They also need to 'train' their palate. 

"Senior Wu." Cheng Sheng turned and called at Wu Yuan who still has his eyes closed as he rests. 

Wu Yuan slowly opened his eyes and gazed at the mountain that has some vegetation. "Let's enter in an hour. Then, we resume looking for Shashan Pass." He said. "After travelling thousands of li, we found some vegetation. I think, the Shashan Pass is no longer far from us." He told them. 

Their eyes brightened and they excitedly smiled, feeling that their enthusiasm returned. "Alright!" Cheng Sheng and Fei Yin looked at each other and grinned. 

Wu Yuan closed his eyes again. 

Shashan Pass, one day later. 

"Hey, little brother. Don't you want to buy a gift for your pretty girlfriend?" a merchant asked and looked at the linked arms of a pair of lovers. 

The demonic cultivator heartily laughed and walked towards the stall owner. "Darling, which one do you like? I'll buy one for you." He told his lover. 

The girl shyly smiled and covered her face, but there was a flash of fear in her eyes. She hidden it well. "T-then… t-that… that white one." She answered, her voice shaking but she did her best to suppress it. 

Now that the times are in favor of the demonic cultivators, some wanted to jump the boat of the demonic cultivators while some who still wanted to resist were either killed, or coerced. The girl in front of them right now is one of those coerced. 

A beggar wearing a conical hat that was pressed lower, covering half of his face passed by and saw the demonic cultivator turned to his lover with a big smile on his face while a white hairpin is on his hand. However, his eyes that should hold affection towards his lover has a terrifying look in them as he glared at her. 

The woman was terrified but she bit her lip to suppress herself not to scream. "Darling, here is the token of my love for you." He told her through his gnashed teeth as he grabbed his lover's hand and squeezed it. 

The girl's eyes reddened and squeezed out tears when she felt her hand is about to be crushed. Her palm was also scratched by the figure designed on the hairpin. "T-thank you." She said as she lowered her head to hide the pain in her eyes. 

However, to the other people, she looked like she was loved and is shy after the demonic cultivator gave her a gift. Some women even expressed envy at her. However, the beggar could clearly see the hidden picture upon this layer of the picture. 

"You won't stop them?" a man dressed in blinding white clothes that are hidden underneath his black but stylish hooded cloak asked the beggar that was sitting on the ground. 

"How about you?" the beggar asked back as he removed his gaze after the pair of 'loving' couple left. "You are the god of light. Injustice is in front of you, yet you turn a blinding eye on it." He said. 

Bai Shen placed his fingers on his smooth and sharp chin. "'injustice'? I only saw a display of public affection." He smiled. 

"Hypocrite." Xi Tong sneered. "Then, why still ask me if I want to stop them?" he asked. 

Bai Shen chuckled. "What I meant is not the couple, but a group of three behind them." He said and pointed the small group of three men that was revealed after the crowd dispersed. 

Xi Tong turned and saw the three familiar men beaten by weather after crossing the sea of desert for eleven days. "I overlooked them. Jing Xian sure is getting more powerful." He said. If not for Bai Shen pointing out the presence of Cheng Sheng, Fei Yin and Wu Yuan, he wouldn't notice them under his nose. 

Bai Shen chuckled. 

Xi Tong looked at him. "Why help me notice them?" he spoke. "Aren't you on their side?" he asked.

"Am I?" Bai Shen asked back. "Are you not?" he added as he stared at Xi Tong's lifeless eyes. He clearly knew Xi Tong isn't a human, but isn't a monster, either. That's why he is very interested in Xi Tong and his existence. 

Xi Tong knew he couldn't beat this god's shamelessness. "I thought you are very powerful. Why do you hide your presence from the demonic cultivators?" he asked. 

"Don't you already know the answer? Why still ask?" Bai Shen thrown back at him. 

Xi Tong fell silent. He knew. Bai Shen is too conspicuous, and the demonic cultivators, like the one he has seen earlier with his lovers, are all show-off. Bai Shen's conspicuousness isn't limited to his appearance, but also his arrogance. Bai Shen would inevitably clash with the demonic cultivators, since the demonic cultivators would definitely think Bai Shen is stealing their show. 

Bai Shen is just simply provocative. Even he, a non-human, a system, feels irritated seeing this god. Bai Shen always manages to provoke his anger he, a non-human, a system. 

Bai Shen smiled when he made Xi Tong speechless again. "See. If I would fight against them, this world is too small for me and I might 'accidentally' ruin this world." He told him. 

Xi Tong didn't answer. He knew this is the case. 

"I was also here because the world I came from was integrated with this world." Bai Shen added. 

"Zuo Zhe saved you. If he didn't, you, along with Cheng Sheng, Cheng Shu and Hei Shen should have all been sent to the Devourer's stomach." Xi Tong finally can't help but speak. 

Bai Shen laughed. "Should I go and thank him?" he asked. "That's right. He's also my nephew's, Yu Sheng's lover, isn't he? Now, I really have to meet him – " he said. 

"Don't cause trouble." Xi Tong warned him. "Because this world's rules changed after this world integrated with your world, the Devourer still hasn't destroyed this world since it doesn't know its effects once the Devourer eats this world." He said. 

"That's why you're here, aren't you? To gather more information about this world for the Devourer." Bai Shen said. 

Xi Tong didn't answer and just watched Cheng Sheng, Fei Yin and Wu Yuan huddled in a corner and talked. 

Bai Shen didn't nitpick on Xi Tong again. "How about this, you visit me in my dimension?" he asked. 

So, you could provoke me into anger again? Xi Tong forced himself not to roll his eyes. 

"I promise I won't disturb my older nephew and my creator." Bai Shen added. 

"Deal!" Xi Tong immediately said. He is afraid Bai Shen would take back his words. He is afraid of what will Bai Shen do if he wouldn't bind the other with his own words. 

Bai Shen grinned. "Then, I'll be waiting for you in my dimension." He said before his figure flashed and he disappeared. At the same time, Cheng Sheng, Fei Yin and Wu Yuan turned in Xi Tong's direction and walked towards him. 

Earlier, they almost jumped on the demonic cultivator and killed him. They could see the girl is being coerced. However, their reason pulled them back. They could only grit their teeth and swallow the shame as they watched the scene end before their eyes. 

"Definitely…" Cheng Sheng muttered, his muscles tensed as he clenched his fists inside his wide sleeves. "I'll definitely kill them all…!" he seethed in anger. 

"Sheng…" Fei Yin called before he slipped his hand inside Cheng Sheng's sleeve and held Cheng Sheng's hand tight. "I'm with you." He told him and smiled reassuringly. 

"En." Wu Yuan muttered. He also meant the same as Fei Yin. They will defeat Wu Ran and eradicate the demonic cultivators' existence in this world! They will erase the atrocities in this world! 

Cheng Sheng took a deep breath to calm his emotions and curved his killing intent. It isn't good if a fight breaks out and they'll be exposing themselves. "Let's go ask that beggar if he knows about where is the Shashan Pass, as well as the Wu Ran Kingdom." He said. 

"En."
