Chapter 403: The Scum Is A Perpetrator

"What are you two talking about?" Shang He asked as he quizzically looked at them two. 

"Huilong Continent's matters." Fei Yin answered as he helped Cheng Sheng massage his temples to ease his headache. 

"Oh." Shang He muttered. 

Although he is quite curious about the Huilong Continent for a long time now, but he was busy chasing after Meng Gui. And, he's not that much curious, so he didn't go through the Ni Lai Gates to take a look at the Huilong Continent. 

"Are you facing problems?" Shang He asked. 

"It must be about to end." Fei Yin answered as he pulled Cheng Sheng up and leaned him to his embrace, comforting him of his discomfort from his headache. 

Shang He shrugged and returned to Meng Gui. "Have you seen Ma Wen or his people?" he asked him. 

"No." Meng Gui answered. "Which is strange." He frowned, feeling uneasy. "Are they using illusion spell again?" he asked as he looked around, finding nothing unusual. 

"The demonic energy in this city is too thick. I can't see clearly…" Cheng Sheng pursed his lips, feeling more uncomfortable. Fortunately, there's the Shapeshifting Blanket covering his and Fei Yin's bodies to protect them from the demonic qi. 

"Do we have to wait for our people to arrive?" Shang He asked Meng Gui. 

Xiao San and the others were two to three cities away from them, so they'll be arriving tomorrow if they will travel non-stop. 

"Let's wait for them. Xiao Huan is with them, too." Meng Gui said as he pointed to the forest, indicating they will be hiding there. 

Shang He nodded in agreement. He turned to Fei Yin and Cheng Sheng. "Let's go." He told them before he followed after Meng Gui. 

Fei Yin decided to pick up Cheng Sheng and carry him in his arms since the other looked sick. He doesn't feel assured to place Cheng Sheng on his back since enemies might sneak attack them, making Cheng Sheng bear the brunt of the attacks.

Huilong Continent, Southmost Region, Shashan Pass. 

Xie Lan, Fan Wen, Jing Rui, Qian Tian, Fei Lin and Xi Ling looked at each other, dumbfounded, when memories suddenly poured in their minds catching them all off-guard and they felt their heads ached so much. It was only after a while did the pain in their heads subsided, but their expression suddenly changed to shock and wonder. 

"Founder… shifu… are you alright?" Li Tian asked as they helped their respective leaders up. 

"Uncle…" Jing Cheng worriedly called when he saw Jing Rui's expression twisted. 

"Brother?" Qian Lin called in an uncertain voice when he saw Qian Tian's blank expression, which is the first time he saw on his elder brother's face. 

"Lin…" Xi Ling called, his trembling hand clutched Fei Lin's arm tight, crumpling Fei Lin's wide sleeves. 

But, Fei Lin didn't react since he was as shocked as them all. They all looked at each other, their gazes speaking. "I…" he spoke first, feeling he should, since it was his uncle who is responsible for what happened just now. He licked his lips, feeling nervous. 

The disciples looked at them all, back and back, puzzled as to why their leaders were suddenly behaving strangely, and there's a subtle change in the atmosphere of the Millennium Ship. 

"You don't think we were suddenly sneak attacked and they were all possessed?" Feng Mo whispered. 

Lei Ling's eyes widened in shock. "No way! I should notice if it happened!" he said. 

"But, what if the perpetrator's cultivation is higher than yours?" Qian Lin asked. 

Lei Ling shut up, feeling wronged. He doesn't hate Qian Lin for asking that. Qian Lin didn't mean to belittle him. "I…" he stammered. Suddenly, he felt a warm arm wrapped around his shoulder and pulled him to a warm and familiar embrace that always made him feel secured. 

"I would notice it, too, if it happened." Jing Kang spoke. 

The disciples. "…" why is it that they can't refute this easily?

The masters. "…" why are you freely deliberating there? Do you think we can't hear you? Do you think we didn't hear you saying we have a mental problem? 

The Millennium Ship suddenly fell into an awkward silence. 

"Ehem." Xie Lan coughed, breaking the awkward atmosphere. "We weren't possessed." He said as he faced the disciples standing on the side. 

Their faces turned flushed in embarrassment for being heard.

"Then… uncle… what happened to you all earlier?" Jing Hei asked as he looked at Jing Rui. 

"We remembered something." Jing Rui answered.

The disciples. "…" just that? Does it have to be that dramatic every time you remember something? They thought, but didn't dare voice out the words. 

Fan Wen who has always been soft-hearted felt they are wronging the disciples for hiding something. "We were all fine." He spoke. "We just felt a headache because some memories that we lost suddenly returned to us." He explained. 

"'memories lost'?" Zheng Yi spoke, then frowned. "Is it Qi Ling again?" he asked. He was a victim of Qi Ling before. 

"No." Xi Ling answered. 

"Then…" Jing Bai's brows knotted. "You all lost some of your memories? How? Why?" he asked. 

"And it returned to you all simultaneously." Lei Qing added. 

"This…" Qian Tian looked at the others. 

"It's because everything has actually been planned by my uncle." Fei Lin answered. 

Everyone turned to him. 

"In order for the plan to not be exposed to Wu Ran who is disguising as Ming Ye, and our 'acting' to be foolproof, our memories regarding with the plan have to be erased." Fei Lin explained. "And, they were all erased by Cheng Sheng." He added. 

Their eyes widened in shock. "Cheng Sheng?!" the other disciples exclaimed. Then, they turned to look at the Xinfaxian Sect disciples. But, they were surprised to see there's no shocked expression on their faces. Instead, they looked greatly anxious and worried. 

"Shid… what happened to him?!" Li Tian asked with a pale face. 

"Your memories returning… could it be something bad happened to Cheng-shidi!?" Feng Mo asked, panicking. 

The other disciples who were thinking Cheng Sheng is so bold to erase the masters' memories. "…" the Xinfaxian Sect is abnormal. They unanimously thought. Cheng Sheng is also a perpetrator like Fei Huang to arrange a large-scale game of chess, playing us all in his hands. Yet, this Xinfaxian Sect, who were also played, is still worried of their fellow disciple. 

But, if it is as they were thinking, then that means… 

"Brother." Qian Lin called, suppressing the excitement in his voice. "Could it be… could it be… father and mother… and the disciples…?" he asked as he raised his head to look at Qian Tian. His eyes are filled and shining with hope. 

The Zunjingde Sect disciples are staring at their uncle Jing Rui, waiting for his answer to confirm their thoughts. The Xinfaxian Sect disciples are looking at Xie Lan and Fan Wen, while Fei Lin and Xi Ling were holding each other's hands to suppress the emotions bubbling in their chests. 

"Everyone…" Fei Lin muttered in a low voice as he raised his head. "Everyone is alive. They aren't dead!" he sharply inhaled and squinted his eyes when a ray of sunlight hit his eyes. He turned to the direction where the light is coming from. "The Chen Clan isn't dead, as well as the Wu family… everyone is safe. No one died…!" he said as they all watched the sun broke through the horizon, illuminating everything with its bright light, erasing all the darkness in the land. 

The disciples heard what Fei Lin said and a loud cheer was heard in the Millennium Ship, accompanying the arrival of the dawn. 

"Huh? If your memories really returned, how did it return?" Lei Ling asked. 

The noise immediately died down. 

The Xinfaxian Sect disciples' hearts were seized with fear. "It couldn't be… something really happened to Cheng-shidi?" Li Tian asked as they looked at Xie Lan and Fan Wen. 

Qian Tian, Jing Rui, Fei Lin and Xi Ling also looked at the two. Although they were informed by Fei Huang of the plan, but Fei Huang didn't tell them the condition, or what will trigger the condition of their memories returning. 

"It's…" Xie Lan spoke. "When xiao Sheng reached the Yao City of the Heilong Realm will out memories return." He answered. 

"What does this mean?" they all looked at each other, confused. 

But, before Xie Lan could answer, they heard the door of the cabin opening. They all turned and saw Zuo Zhe who has just woke up, rubbing his eyes that were drooping because he still feel sleepy. 

"What are you guys fired up about? It's just five in the morning. I woke up at noon." Zuo Zhe complained. 

Seeing him, everyone suddenly remembered something. "Right. Yu Sheng… he went to the Heilong Realm. Was he also informed about the plan?" the disciples asked. 

"'plan'? What 'plan'?" Zuo Zhe asked and also looked at Xie Lan and the other masters. 

"No. He doesn't know."
