Chapter 656: The Scum Is Guileless

Chapter 656 – The Scum Is Guileless

Everyone turned and looked at Cheng Sheng in surprise. "Someone good in chess?!" they exclaimed.

Cheng Sheng nodded. "This person might have never defeated me once, but they have defeated even Li-shixiong, Feng-shixiong, Lei-shijie and Lei-shidi." He said.

Everyone was shocked. "There is such an amazing disciple?!" they asked. "Who?" they curiously looked at him.

Cheng Sheng smiled and didn't answer. He just pointed at one participant who, at this time, actually remained in the camp together with Cui Xiang. It was none other than –

"Cui Xiao?!" they all exclaimed in shock.

Li Tian, Feng Mo, Lei Qing and Lei Ling chuckled while You Rou proudly smiled. "It was a glorious defeat." Li Tian and Feng Mo helplessly smiled while Lei Qing shook her head and Lei Ling just happily laughed.

"No wonder she is very good in laying traps!" Shu Mu exclaimed as he looked at Cui Xiao's figure in awe.

They saw Cui Xiao sat beside Cui Xiang who is refining magic pills and brewing potions. Cui Xiao placed down the chessboard on the table and started to place the pieces in the board.

"She is also talented! She doesn't lose to her sister!" Qian Lin exclaimed.

The others nodded in agreement. Then, they suddenly saw that a Message Talisman flew towards Cui Xiao. Cui Xiao read the talisman before she placed another piece on the chessboard. They don't understand what she is doing.

"What is she doing?" Qian Shan curiously asked.

"She isn't playing chess?" He Run asked when he saw that the placement of the pieces on the board looked different.

"No… it seemed like this is chess?" Hui Qiu said as her eyes narrowed.

"But, aren't the pieces too scattered?" Wu Tong asked.

"This… wait." Su Wan muttered when he noticed something. "Hey? Doesn't the placement of the chess pieces look familiar to you?" he asked them.

Everyone started and they observed the chessboard.

"Elder Pai." Zheng Fu Gong suddenly called.

Pai Lie nodded and he went to the Cleansing Stone. Then, everyone saw something happened on the Cleansing Stone. Everyone was surprised to see that the map in the Cleansing Stone can now be seen in a bird's eye view! They saw the bright specks of light in the map, representing the participants.

"Hey!" Zheng Yi exclaimed when he realized it. "Cui Xiao's chessboard pieces looked the same as the places where the other participants are right now!" he said.

The others also saw it. "So… the chessboard represents the entire map, and the chess pieces represents the participants!" they exclaimed in surprise.

"Er Zi… he was killing the demons alone, right? But, he is actually scouting the other participants!" Tang Teng exclaimed when he realized it.

"That is true. Working alone is faster when mobilizing." Li Nanzi agreed.

"Hey. That Wen Wen, too…" Kang Ce spoke when he recalled. "So, he actually wasn't just selling medicine to the other participants, but also scouting their positions?" he said.

Everyone fell silent when they realized what the Xinfaxian Sect disciples are doing. Then, they all looked at the Xinfaxian Sect elders.

"Hey! Why didn't you spare my disciples?!" Chen Han complained when he saw that Chen Wu's, Wu Lian's, Chen Su's, and Chen Yu's positions were also on Cui Xiao's chessboard.

"All is fair in war." Cheng Sheng lazily said.

"Ah Sheng!" Chen Han looked at Cheng Sheng with an aggrieved expression.

The others felt amused of this. It has been a long time since they saw this pair of siblings do their antics again.

"Hey, look! Jing De, Jing Xu, Tang Li and Li Yan have met Wen Wen!" someone from the audience said.

Everyone immediately turned to watch.

"Eh?! Everyone!" Wen Wen called and waved as he ran towards the four people. "What happened to you? You have many wounds! Did you encounter a large group of demons?" he asked in concern.

Jing De, Jing Xu, Tang Li and Li Yan looked at each other with their gazes talking. They tacitly agreed not to tell Wen Wen about their skirmish earlier. Not only they felt it was shameful, they also can't pollute Wen Wen's simple-minded brain about infighting.

Everyone who can see through the four's thoughts and felt that the four of them are the ones simple-minded instead of Wen Wen who is obviously acting innocent but actually slyly revealing their whereabouts to their sect's tactician Cui Xiao. "…" damn it! Why are the Xinfaxian Sect disciples all good in acting?! They thought and glanced at Cheng Sheng who is proudly smiling while watching Wen Wen fooling Jing De, Jing Xu, Tang Li and Li Yan.

Jing Rui's face turned expressionless while Tang Teng and Li Nanzi don't know what to say, especially when they saw that Jing De, Jing Xu, Tang Li and Li Yan bought medicines and talismans from Wen Wen! This is simply helping the thief count the money after being sold! Jing De, Jing Xu, Tang Li and Li Yan, run! They thought, almost wanting to go inside the secret space to warn the four!

"Then, I will be leaving first!" Wen Wen said and waved at them while smiling brightly as he left.

"You be careful, too!" Jing De, Jing Xu, Tang Li and Li Yan said and waved back at Wen Wen as they watched him leave. They didn't suspect that Wen Wen was plotting against them. They were really deceived by his guileless act!

Tang Li and Li Nanzi wanted to cry, but they don't have tears. As expected, they saw Wen Wen took out a talisman and the talisman flew to the direction of the camp!

"Even Tang Li and Li Yan fell in Wen Wen's scheme?" Jing Bai helplessly sighed as they watched Wen Wen approach the hiding Fei Yinzi and, together, they left to find new targets.

Back in the camp, they saw Cui Xiao placed four chess pieces on the chessboard. "Sister, it is now complete." They heard her say.

Cui Xiang opened her eyes and smiled when she saw the chessboard. "Then, you can now start?" she said.

"En." Cui Xiao nodded.

"'start'?" they looked at each other, puzzled. "She wasn't starting yet?" they asked. Then, they turned to look at the Xinfaxian Sect elders who shook their heads, indicating that they don't know what their own disciples are going to do.

Cheng Sheng pinched his chin. He has a pensive expression on his face.

"Xiao Sheng?" Fan Wen called.

But, Cheng Sheng didn't answer and continued to watch as Cui Xiao close her eyes and concentrated.

Fei Yin's eyes suddenly flashed. "Cheng-shidi." He called. "It couldn't be that she…" he said.

Everyone's ears immediately perked up. "What is it?" they immediately asked.

Fei Yin looked at them, but he didn' say anything. This made their curiosity stronger. They looked at Cheng Sheng, whose eyes suddenly widened in surprise.

"She – !" Cheng Sheng exclaimed as he abruptly rose from his seat, making everyone feel surprised by his reaction. He turned to look at You Rou. "You-shimei." He called.

"Yes, Cheng-shixiong?" You Rou immediately answered.

Everyone is looking at them two, feeling intrigued.

"Did you gave the Book of Secret Formations to Cui Xiao?" Cheng Sheng asked her.

"… 'Book of Secret Formations'?" everyone's eyes flashed when they heard this, and they became curious about this book.

Li Tian looked at Cheng Sheng, seeking for his approval, and he saw Cheng Sheng nodded. Li Tian turned to the others who wore gossipy expressions and he magnanimously explained to them. "The Book of Sect Formations was written by Cheng-shidi. It is about different kinds of formations using spells, talismans and arrays, or combination of the three." He explained.

Everyone's eyes widened in surprise and Pai Lie's eyes sparkled. "Then, the barrier of the Xinfaxian, it was also written in this book?!" Pai Lie asked.

"Elder Pai is right." Li Tian answered with a smile. "That was the Triple Formation-Array Barrier consisted of the spell formations, talisman formations and arrays." He said.

Everyone watched Cheng Sheng in awe.

"Then, what Cui Xiao is doing right now… it should be also from this book?" Guo Cheng asked.

Although everyone feels their hand became itchy, wanting to read this book, they naturally know that this is a treasure of the Xinfaxian Sect. This makes them sigh in both awe and regret since Cheng Sheng doesn't belong to their sect.

"Yes." Fei Yin nodded as an answer.

While he and Cheng Sheng were inside Bai Tan's space before, he read the books that Cheng Sheng have written over the five years he was not present by his lover's side. So, he also has read about this book. And, he can say that Cheng Sheng really possessed many novel ideas.

"Yes, Cheng-shixiong." You Rou answered with a nod. "Xiao-er read it with Xiang-er." She told him.

"Then…" Cheng Sheng looked at Cui Xiao. "She really has learned the Distance Perceiving Formation." He said and sighed with emotion.. He didn't expect this to happen.
