Chapter 525: The Scum Is Resentful

It would be a lie to say that Xi Xing doesn't feel resentful towards Cheng Sheng. Not to mention that the Spirit Tracing Bell, which Cheng Sheng created, harmed Xi Ming, but the two of them also have risked their lives to help Cheng Sheng save Fei Yin by going down the Abyss.

But, who told Xi Ming to teach him only how to love, and not to resent? Thus, although Xi Xing felt resent, it was only for a short time. It wasn't Cheng Sheng who harmed Xi Ming, but the spirit servant. It also was their choice to help Cheng Sheng. He didn't force them. Thus, why should he resent him?

Xi Xing heaved a sigh. Cheng Sheng could see the change in his expressions. Although he knows Xi Xing isn't a resentful person, he isn't the person to take advantage of others, albeit he had done it before, though for some reasons.

"I will definitely cure Xi Ming." Cheng Sheng promised. "Xi Ming is also my friend so I definitely won't let him suffer. I also owe him, and you, a favor." He smiled.

Xi Xing nodded and didn't say anything more.

Cheng Sheng took a deep breath and rose from his seat. "I'll go and see Er Zi. Just call me if anything happens." He told them before he left.

They all nodded.

…

Fei Yinzi, although wasn't as heavily injured as Ho Ting, but his body isn't sturdy enough to bear the attack of Cheng Sheng's fan that was usually for defense, or attacking the enemies. So, he lied on the bed for a whole afternoon and night yesterday and only woke up this morning. Because he looked pale and still felt weak, he didn't attend the Intersect Competition. He also was done with his match, after all.

Everyone also understood so they wished for him to recuperate first.

"Shizun!" Fei Yinzi exclaimed when he saw Cheng Sheng came in. He immediately sat up on the bed.

"Don't force yourself if you feel ill." Cheng Sheng spoke and Bai Tan pushed Fei Yinzi down the bed. "Am I that bad in your eyes, to still force you to do the formalities with me even if you are bedridden?" he asked.

Fei Yinzi's eyes widened in shock. "No!" the answered.

Although Cheng Sheng is tough on his methods, he never felt resentful towards his master. After all, it was Cheng Sheng who took him away from that desert and raised him for more than five years. He gave him a new life so he is extremely grateful to him. Not to mention that he had met many kind people, his mind also has been opened to a new world called 'cultivation'.

"Good." Cheng Sheng nodded as he sat on the seat. "Has your Fan-shigong taught you yesterday about the Three Harmonious Forms Manual?" he asked.

Fei Yinzi nodded. "Yes." he answered.

"Then, recuperate faster." Cheng Sheng spoke as he handed him a qiankun pouch filled with magic pills and potions. "After you are done, I will personally teach you about the Three Harmonious Forms Manual. Your foundation still needs to be improved." He spoke. "At the least, you have to be able to bear my fan's attack. Or else, you would have already been killed by the enemy before you could blink." He told him.

Suddenly, Fei Yinzi had the urge to cough up blood. His master… is really not fit to comfort others. He thought. He doesn't even know the words to tell a patient! He thought. "… yes, shizun." He answered. Though, he feels happy since Cheng Sheng will be teaching him again!

These past five months, Cheng Sheng has never taught him anything, since they haven't met in these months. When they met again, the Intersect Competition is already starting, and Cheng Sheng was too busy to even watch his performance in the competition.

Thus, now given a chance to spend more time with his master and even going to be taught by him, he really feels happy! Although Cheng Sheng is harsh, but it can't be denied that his teaching is effective since Fei Yinzi felt himself improving. Though, after all the hardships he experienced under his cruel master's hands, he was said earlier that it wasn't enough.

Fei Yinzi doesn't know whether to laugh or cry. He was told that he will have a devilish training again, and he is still in his sickbed! Which disciple could be more miserable than him?!

…

Because Xi Ming, Xi Xing, Shu Mu and Xiao Le are not present, Cheng Sheng had to replace his 'bodyguards', which made Chen Han and the others feel happy. And due to what happened yesterday, almost everyone wanted to apply to be his bodyguard, to which made him feel in between laughing and crying.

In the end, Chen Han, Li Tian and Feng Mo accompanied Cheng Sheng together with the Huakai Sect. Yes – the Huakai Sect acts together. Chen Han as Cheng Sheng's bodyguard should already be a given, as well as Li Tian since he is Chen Han's partner. Feng Mo tagging along is also for him to see Wu Bai, whom who knows what is happening to him now.

Thus, Snow White and the Seven Dwarves… ai, scratch that. Cheng Sheng and his seven bodyguards went to go to see Chen Jing, Wu Fan, Fei Lin and Xi Ling to see how they are doing.

"… this is what we are going to do today?" Chen Han asked. "We're not going to hunt down the enemies or any spirit servants lurking?" he said.

"No." Cheng Sheng's brow twitched as he answered. "We've already placed Spirit Tracing Bells all over Zhongyang and there is the array. If there is an enemy approaching Zhongyang, I will feel it if they enter Zhongyang." He explained. "Though, I can't help with the enemies already inside. We can only rely on our people to hunt them and 'clean' Zhongyang." He said.

They all nodded in agreement.

"Han-er! Sheng-er!" Chen Jing called when he saw his sons. "You finally remembered this old father of yours!" he said, feeling of wanting to cry. He thought that they have forgotten him after they have used him – especially Cheng Sheng!

"How can that be? Aren't I always writing to you?" Cheng Sheng smiled.

Chen Jing. "…" those are what you called letters 'for me'? I am referring to myself as your father and not as your helper! He thought as his lip twitched. He just forced a smile.

"Ehem. Father." Chen Han called.

"Chen patriarch…" Li Tian shyly smiled.

"Han-er, Tian-er…" Chen Han hugged the two. He now doesn't feel like hugging this bear child Cheng Sheng!

Wu Fan coughed to hide his laughter.

"Eh? Where's Wu Bai?" Feng Mo asked as he looked around.

"Elder Fei and elder Xi, too, aren't around…" Tang Zhe and the others added.

"They must be hunting the remaining Eating Worms." Wu Fan answered.

They all started. That's right… they almost forgot these disgusting worms.

"Is there any news about these worms?" Guo Cheng asked.

"For now, elder Fei and elder Xi are responsible for tracking the Eating Worms with Wu Bai while I and Chen Jing are monitoring the activities in Zhongyang to find the spirit servants." Wu Fan explained. "Elder Fei and elder Xi are extremely hardworking. The Eating Worms in the Zhongyang are about to be eradicated." He told them.

They all sighed in relief. Although the spirit servants are fearsome, the Eating Worms are more fearsome since they are more silent in disguising and hiding than the spirit servants. These insects also don't have a master and only rely on their instinct – which is to devour. Thus, they should eradicate the Eating Worms as fast as possible.

Also, the enemies' targets right now are the cultivators, especially Cheng Sheng. Meanwhile, the Eating Worms are targeting the citizens…

"What… huh?" Shan Lu muttered when he thought this. "The enemies' 'weapons' should be the Eating Worms and the spirit servants. The former attacks the ordinary people while the latter attacks the cultivators… if they are to succeed, wouldn't everyone in our land be killed?" he asked.

Everyone looked at him. Their gazes says, "so you finally realized!" or "so you actually have a brain?" or also "I thought your brain is just to decorate the inside of your head" or something… Shan Lu felt wronged.

Cheng Sheng, though, smiled. If even Shan Lu could think it, then everyone can think it. That's why they are all working hard. "We should be glad that these Eating Worms only eat the brain and not control the person they are parasitizing…" he spoke when his smile suddenly froze. His whole body froze.

"Cheng Sheng? What's wrong?" they asked.

Cheng Sheng's eyes slowly widened and he suddenly turned on his heel while Bai Tan flew out of his sleeve. Then, he boarded Bai Tan and flew back to the Yunxiao Inn!

"Cheng Sheng!" the others called and flew after him on their swords.
