Chapter 77: The Scum Is Perfect

"Please go this way." Jing Cheng and Jing Bai heard Zheng Yi spoke. Though they know it was Zheng Yi, but they actually haven't seen his – nor any other disciples residing in the Righteous Alliance, appearance. They have their body all wrapped up until their hands and feet. They were wearing a mask, and even their eyes nor ears cannot be seen. You won't see a skin of them exposed.
When Zheng Yi fetched them earlier, Jing Cheng thought it was another disciple of the Righteous Alliance since you can't distinguish them from one another. The only ones you will see their face here are the five elders of the Righteous Alliance. Even the servants are also all covered up. However, for some reason, Jing Bai recognized Zheng Yi.
"Greetings, Zheng-xiong. We have met again." Jing Bai said, a bright smile was on his face. Even when Zheng Yi didn't answer and just ignored him, he still wore the smile.
Jing Cheng watched Zheng Yi walked first, leaving them two to follow him. "How did you know it was him?" he whispered to Jing Bai. However, Jing Bai just smiled. Jing Cheng didn't ask further.
"You've finally arrived." Jing Rui's voice pulled Jing Cheng from his thoughts.
Jing Cheng turned and saw two people sitting inside. One is an old man with white hair and long beard. He's one of the elders of the Righteous Alliance. The other person was wearing bright orange robes that fits his slender body. His skin is fair like a jade porcelain, but his eyes are sharp, making him looked fierce. His dark eyes tell that he had survived many storms in his life and he is filled with wisdom. Despite that, he has a beautiful face but a cold expression, and his tear mole on his right eye is very distinct. "Uncle." Jing Cheng respectfully bowed together with Jing Bai who was following him behind.
Jing Rui's eyes narrowed when he didn't see the third person. "Where is Ah Hei?" he asked.
Jing Cheng secretly looked at Jing Bai. Jing Bai spoke. "Uncle." He called and stood upright. "Ah Hei left to welcome second young master Qian." He answered. Jing Cheng forced his expression to look normal while Jing Bai smiled, his eyes turning to crescents.

The elder saw Jing Rui's expression turned ugly while Zheng Yi sweated for Jing Bai. Obviously, Jing Rui was displeased. It showed that Jing Hei placed more importance on Qian Lin than Jing Rui and the Righteous Alliance. Before Jing Rui could explode, Jing Cheng immediately spoke. "Uncle." He called. "Elder Zheng is waiting." He reminded him.
Jing Rui pressed his lips tight and he threw a sharp look on Jing Bai. "Come." He called them. Jing Cheng and Jing Bai obediently followed, knowing that they did something wrong. Then, Jing Rui turned to Zheng Fu Gong, his expression returned to being cold. "Elder Zheng can continue." He said.
Zheng Fu Gong coughed. He gave Jing Rui face by not pursuing Jing Hei's whereabouts. "Last night, we caught a group of demonic cultivators." He started. "However, we found out there are three more of them on the run. These three demonic cultivators are their scouts. Since the Intersect Competition will be starting tomorrow, we have to have someone guard inside the competition." He explained and looked at Jing Cheng and Jing Bai.
At the end of the year, the rankings of the cultivators will be refreshed. However, what matters the most is the ranking released after the Intersect Competition was held. The Intersect Competition is held during the last month of the year. The Intersect Competition greatly affects the ranking of the cultivators. Those who are ranked are from the Golden Core Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage – the stages where the cultivators are at the peak of their age. Of course, those who have already became an elder of a sect is exempted. For example, Fei Lin and Xi Ling who are in the high level of the Nascent Soul Stage and are only a few steps away from Immortalization Stage.
These cultivators will be ranked according to their achievements accumulated. In the previous ranking, Jing Cheng is the first, followed by Wu Yuan, Chen Han, Qian Tian, Sun Yi, Xi Ming, Jing Bai, Jing Hei, Qian Lin and Dongfang Xiaoyun. However, this year, everyone expected there will be a great shuffling. Wu Yuan became the sect leader of the Youxiwang Sect. Qian Tian also became an elder of the Qianxu Sect. Dongfang Xiaoyun died after their sect and the Dongfang Town had been attacked by the demonic cultivators. Three people already became eliminated in the rankings. Ever since he was found out to be both a mage and sword cultivator, everyone expected Cheng Sheng to enter the ranking.
How can he not? He created the Cleansing Talisman, and more useful talismans, then saved the Youxiwang Sect from also being destroyed by the demonic qi like what happened to the Dongfang Sect. They also have heard Cheng Sheng's alchemic skills and sword skills are top notch. And, not only that but he is also very handsome and has a good temperament. Isn't he perfect? Why would he not be popular? Thus, the women started to look for a painter that knows Cheng Sheng and to buy his painting of Cheng Sheng. They all are expecting they could marry him.
Aside from Cheng Sheng, the eldest disciple of the now rising Xinfaxian Sect – Fei Yin, who is also a second young master of a distinguished family, is also expected to enter the ranking. However, not only him. There's also someone from the Shanliangde Sect expected to enter the ranking – Gong Xian, the Shanliangde Sect's East Peak Master and the youngest elder, Ho Yue's sole disciple. They said that he is a once-in-a-lifetime genius. Gong Xian was a beggar child and Ho Yue happened to pick him up when Ho Yue – a soft-hearted person, saw the child was dying from hunger. He secretly took him to the East Peak and hid him while he raised him. When Ho Yue was found out, the child suddenly awakened. Then, they found out he has a high aptitude for cultivation thus they conceded on Ho Yue's request to keep the child and for him to become his disciple. Ho Yue has no plan to receive disciples, but he already had taken in the child. Being his disciple gave him a reason to keep the child – whom he had already attached to. Thus, Gong Xian became Ho Yue's adopted child, and first and last disciple.
