Chapter 49: The Scum Is Possessed

Xie Lan and Ming Ye looked at each other, their eyes talking. On their way to the Dongfang Town to find Wu Fan, they talked about Cheng Sheng's change the past years.

Fei Lin spoke. "Senior Xie means that a disaster will fall in the continent?" he asked.

Xie Lan turned to him. "I think." He answered. "Or else, the Xinfaxian residents all have died." He said. "Also, he's stronger than me. He's at the peak Immortalization Stage." He told Fei Lin.

Fei Lin's eyes widened in shock. "Peak Immortalization…" he said. "That's the same with uncle." He's referring to Fei Huang.

Ming Ye nodded. "We're about to ask for elder Fei's help, thinking that the mysterious man is an enemy. Fortunately – " he said. " – things went well in the end." he looked at Cheng Sheng.

Cheng Sheng, who had gone silent, has everybody's eyes on him again. Then, a shadow fell upon him. He raised his head and saw Fei Yin's back on him. "If you have something to doubt, it's not Cheng-shidi. It's me." Fei Yin said as he faced the three elders before him. "Cheng-shidi was unconscious that night. It is I who talked to that man." He told them.

Xie Lan, Ming Ye and Fei Lin looked at him. Then, their face became blank. Ming Ye doesn't know what to react while Fei Lin helplessly smiled. Xie Lan coughed as he walked towards Fei Yin who looked like a mother hen protecting his chick Cheng Sheng. "Xiao Yin. We're not suspecting Xiao Sheng. We've been with him for 10 years. We saw him grow up so it's us who knows him best if he's colluding with the demonic cultivators." He said as he patted Fei Yin's shoulder. "Also, that man is mysterious but not a demonic cultivator." He added.

Fei Yin nodded. "Cheng-shidi had a golden core now through Spiritual Awakening Method." He said.

Fei Lin's eyes widened as he turned to his younger brother. "What?! Spiritual Awakening Method?!" he looked at Cheng Sheng. Indeed, he felt a stronger power coming from Cheng Sheng. Cheng Sheng really has a golden core now. "But, that method – " he looked at Fei Yin. " – awakening one's mind and spirit to unblock their spiritual veins for the flow of qi in their body."

Xie Lan nodded. "That's right." He said. "It was that man who helped Xiao Sheng." He walked towards Fei Yin. Then, he moved Fei Yin to the side to see Cheng Sheng. "This what puzzles us the most." He turned to Fei Lin. "He isn't related to Xiao Sheng. But, he wanted to take Xiao Sheng away." He said.

"That night, it was only I, Luo-xiong, and our disciples present together with the Xinfaxian sect disciples." Ming Ye said. "He could easily defeat us with his level and then take Sheng-er away. However, he didn't." he said, his brows knit.

Fei Lin was deep in thought. "This is really puzzling." He said and looked at Cheng Sheng. "Maybe we can find some clues from uncle and uncle Jun. However – " he frowned. " – the sect currently is – " he said.

" – under attack." Ming Ye sighed. "We also can't leave our sect leader and the Chen patriarch here." He said.

"But, we have to find clues about this man." Xie Lan said. "And one clue is – " he said and they all looked at Cheng Sheng.

Cheng Sheng broke in a cold sweat. Even if he has a golden core now, but three Immortalization Stage elders are in front of him. He heard his Qi Absorbing Talisman cracked inside his clothes. Their expression changed and retracted their aura they subconsciously emitted. Fei Yin immediately blocked Cheng Sheng from their sight.

"Xiao Sheng. Sorry – " Xie Lan coughed as he broke the tense atmosphere. He turned to Ming Ye and Fei Lin. "We have to find clues about this man. This man knows what is happening lately…" he said.

They nodded. "How about I take them to sect leader?" Xi Ling said.

They turned to him. "Ling…" Fei Lin called.

Ah. They thought as they looked at Xi Ling and Fei Lin. So they are also in that kind of relationship… they thought. Fei Yin just ignored them. He turned and checked Cheng Sheng's condition. Cheng Sheng was slightly pale.

Xi Ling looked at Fei Lin. "Senior Xie and Senior Ming will watch over Senior Chen and Senior Wu." He said. "You look after the sect and cover up for my tasks. I'll take the two disciples to see the sect leader and senior Mu." He told Fei Lin.

Fei Lin looked at them and nodded. He wanted to end this matter now. And the only key to progress is Cheng Sheng. "I understand." Fei Lin said. "Then, senior Xie and senior Ming will watch over the Chen patriarch and sect leader Wu until they recovered. Ling will take Yin-er and disciple Cheng to uncle and uncle Jun to inquire." He said.

They all nodded to each other, agreeing to the plan. How about me? I don't have a say to this? Cheng Sheng thought. I remembered I didn't agree…? He shut his mouth. Even him, he also wanted to end this threat to his peace. Also, he wanted to know about that man. Why did he help him? He hasn't thought of it and only now since he disregarded this matter. But, even if he ignored this, he knew in his heart he wanted to know why did the man help him. However – he doesn't know Fei Huang and this Mu Jun. he is afraid they would find out that the soul inside this body changed. And then kill him. He isn't afraid of death since he will just travel to another world. But, if he can live longer, then he gladly welcomes it. Also… he quite liked this world. He can do what he wants as long as it doesn't break any law.

He sighed and then raised his head. He was greeted by Fei Yin's handsome face. "Da shixiong?" he called when he saw Fei Yin was staring at him.

Fei Yin stared at him for a while before he spoke. "Seems like you have decided." He said.

"Hm?" Cheng Sheng said. He wanted to ask what Fei Yin meant but Xie Lan already called them.

"Xiao Sheng. Xiao Yin." Xie Lan called. "Later, don't hesitate to ask what you wanted to ask." He told them. "Elder Fei might look strict but he is…" he said, then paused. "… strict." He looked at the others who grimaced. Indeed, Fei Huang is really strict. "No matter, no matter." Xie Lan waved his hand. "Elder Fei likes to educate the youngsters so he will answer your questions." He said and patted Cheng Sheng and Fei Yin on the shoulder. "Xiao Ling. I'll leave them to you." He told Xi Ling.

Xi Ling nodded. "Yes, brother." He said and turned to Cheng Sheng and Fei Yin. "I'll conceal your presence, so follow me closely." He told the two as they went out.

Fei Lin, Ming Ye and Xie Lan looked at each other. Their relaxed expression was gone. "You think he was possessed?" Fei Lin asked.

Xie Lan turned to Fei Lin. "I don't think so." He said. "There's only one soul in Xiao Sheng's body, and there's no disharmony." He paused. "Instead, it's – " he looked at Ming Ye, remembered what they saw last time in the Xinfaxian Sect's array.

Ming Ye turned to Fei Lin. "We can't see Sheng-er's qi." He said.

Fei Lin frowned. "Maybe it was the strange cultivation method?" he asked.

"That's what we thought." Ming Ye said, then sighed. "We can only wait for elder Fei's appraisal of Sheng-er's soul." He said.

"What did the Chen patriarch say?" Fei Lin asked as they looked at Chen Jing lying on the bed.

"Xiao Sheng will still be their, and our, family." Xie Lan said, his face serious.

Fei Lin smiled. "That is for the best, then." He said. "But, I wonder what does that man wanted with Sheng-er." He said.

"That's what I am puzzled." Xie Lan said. "What's his relationship with my disciple, and why does he want to take my disciple away." He said.

They fell silent, doesn't know what to answer. Later, Fei Lin left. Ming Ye watched Wu Fan while Xie Lan stayed on the room. The sound of the roars from the strange corpses in the distance echoed in the mountains, making them fell deeper in their thoughts.

North Peak.

"We're here." Xi Ling said as they walked towards the gate.

Cheng Sheng gulped and balled his fists as the gate before them opened. Nobody opened the gate and the gate just automatically opened after Xi Ling touched it. When they crossed the gate, Cheng Sheng felt his soul shook. He felt a surging pain in his abdomen and blood rushed up to his chest and throat. He wanted to crouch in pain, but he held himself. He doesn't want Xi Ling and Fei Yin notice him. However, each step and he felt his body became heavier. His face broke in a sweat and his back and clothes now soaked in sweat. His face is getting paler and he felt dizzier. He felt weak and his knees lost their strength. He fell on his knees and his body fell forward. He can't move his body, and he felt his soul is floating. This is what he feels every time he leaves his body and about to travel in the next world. Am I dying? He thought as he looked at Fei Yin and Xi Ling continued to walk without him. They can't see me… he thought as he closed his eyes, losing his consciousness.

Fei Yin suddenly stopped. His feet before the stairs going to the main hall. He turned and saw Xi Ling and Cheng Sheng walking beside him. "What's the matter?" Xi Ling asked when he saw Fei Yin stopped.

Fei Yin didn't answer and stared at Cheng Sheng standing beside him. Then, he raised his hand. He hit the back of Cheng Sheng's neck. Cheng Sheng suddenly fell on the ground. Fei Yin turned, ignoring Cheng Sheng on the ground. Xi Ling stared at Fei Yin with wide eyes. "What's with you?!" he asked as he immediately went to Cheng Sheng's body. Xi Ling's pupils shrank when he checked the body and didn't feel a soul inside.
