The Scum Is A ***

Chapter 457 - The Scum Is Incredible



Central Region, Zhongyang, Yunxiao Inn.

"Shizun!" Fei Yinzi called as his eyes lit up when he saw Cheng Sheng\'s figure appeared on the teleportation array. He is accompanied by Jing Kang, who reluctantly left Lei Ling\'s side and is returning to Zunjingde Sect.

Cheng Sheng opened his eyes and the first person he saw is his disciple. His expression changed, and Sun Rong, Qie Shi, Jing Bai and Jing Cheng tensed up when they saw it. But, Fei Yinzi is dense when Cheng Sheng is around so he didn\'t see his master\'s expression.

Cheng Sheng is aware that there were other people around so he regained his composure. "That\'s \'shifu\' to you!" he told his disciple, acting like their usual interaction.

Fei Yinzi wasn\'t scared and just grinned as he ran to hug his master whom he missed for a month. Cheng Sheng, caught off-guard and didn\'t expect his disciple\'s action, froze. The tension in the air rose and everyone is afraid that Cheng Sheng might suddenly snap, and slap or hit his disciple who became more daring after they haven\'t seen each other for a month.

Cheng Sheng\'s expression is stiff and they all doubted he was still breathing had they not saw his gaze moved and he looked at them.

Jing Cheng coughed and immediately approached Cheng Sheng. "Thank you for coming." He said.

Fei Yinzi saw that his master has a business and he reluctantly left his master\'s side. Sun Rong and Qie Shi are quick and pulled him to the side, making him watch his master be taken away by Jing Cheng and went to a private room with Jing Bai and Jing Kang following them.

"Er Zi! How was your training in the Zunjingde Sect?" Qie Shi asked when he saw that Fei Yinzi was still staring at the direction where his master left. When the child didn\'t answer, he turned to look at Sun Rong.

Sun Rong smiled and kissed Qie Shi on the cheek before he waved his hand in front of Fei Yinzi, waking him from his daze. "Did you become stronger?" he asked.

That woke Fei Yinzi up. He turned to look at Sun Rong. "Yes." He nodded. "I am nearing the mid-level of Golden Core Stage." He answered.

"That\'s good." Sun Rong smiled and patted Fei Yinzi\'s head. Meanwhile, Qie Shi secretly sighed in relief. "If you did, then you will be as strong as your master." Sun Rong told Fei Yinzi with a smile.

But, Fei Yinzi frowned. "Shizun is the strongest!" he said as he glared at Sun Rong.

What a temper. Sun Rong thought, feeling amused. "Yes, yes. Your master is the strongest. We all know that." He said. "There is also his medical skills…" he added.

"Of course! My shizun is the best!" Fei Yinzi said.

Sun Rong and Qie Shi smiled. "Come on. I\'ll give you snacks!" Qie Shi pulled the child. "Tell us what did you experience in the Zunjingde Sect. Did they bully you? You should tell your master later so that he will settle the score with the Zunjingde Sect to avenge you." He told him.

Fei Yinzi nodded and lowered his gaze. Sun Rong and Qie Shi smiled when they saw that the child is still the same. Little did they know that Fei Yinzi\'s eyes darkened and his fists and clenched inside his sleeves, remembering what happened earlier when he was finally reunited with his master.

Cheng Sheng doesn\'t seem happy to see him.

"Thank you for your hard work." Jing Cheng said to Cheng Sheng after the waiter served their dishes. "Did something happen while you were making uncle\'s cure?" he asked, concerned.

"Yes." Cheng Sheng answered as he sipped his tea.

Jing Cheng, Jing Bai and Jing Kang immediately became tense.

"The smell stuck on my clothes and was hard to remove, like the Stinky Pill." Cheng Sheng spoke. "I had to seal my sense of smell for that. Fortunately, it was only for three days." He explained.

Jing Cheng, Jing Bai and Jing Kang. "…" damn it. Cheng Sheng is really Cheng Sheng, playing us like this… they thought and suppressed the urge to curse and smack his face.

Jing Cheng coughed. "Then… we apologize. We\'ll increase the pay?" he asked.

Cheng Sheng nodded. "Good." He answered and started eating.

Jing Cheng, Jing Bai and Jing Kang secretly sighed in relief. Fortunately, Cheng Sheng didn\'t add more or else… it is really hard to please Cheng Sheng, aside from money and rare materials – whether herbs or treasures which can entertain him or he can use for research. He doesn\'t accept magic pills or recipes, since he is the strongest mage. But, if they are rare magic pills or recipes, then he will, since you can\'t find them anywhere anymore. However, who would take it out, though?

After eating, Jing Cheng, Jing Bai and Jing Kang saw that Cheng Sheng only left Sun Rong and Qie Shi a message telling them that he will go to the Zunjingde Sect to cure Jing Rui.

"… you won\'t be bringing your disciple?" Jing Bai carefully asked.

"Why? You still want your disciples to continue bullying him?" Cheng Sheng asked.

Jing Bai grimaced. "They didn\'t bully him. It was the other way around…" he said.

Cheng Sheng didn\'t answer.

Feeling that the pressure surrounding Cheng Sheng decreased, Jing Bai spoke again. "Speaking of this, why didn\'t you say that your disciple is talented?" he asked as he looked at Cheng Sheng. "Our disciples were given a fright." He sighed.

"It was your disciples\' fault for underestimating my disciple." Cheng Sheng said with pursed lips.

Seeing his expression of acting cold but is actually secretly proud, Jing Cheng, Jing Bai and Jing Kang smiled. "Yes, yes. It was their fault… we will punish them and report them to uncle when uncle wakes up." Jing Cheng said.

"Good." Cheng Sheng nodded.

As they were talking, they have finally reached the Zunjingde Sect and then they entered.

Yunxiao Inn.

"Ai… your martial arts became better. As expected of Cheng Sheng." Sun Rong said. "But, why do you suck at alchemy?" he asked and looked at Fei Yinzi who has his hands on his knees and is sweating heavily while catching his breath. "And your master is the best mage… he is the best with talismans, spells, magic pills, and even arrays. He is even the master of your Li-shibo, Lei-shishu and You-shigu." He sighed.

This is the scene that Li Tian, Feng Mo and Lei Ling has seen. Lei Qing and You Rou stayed in Xinfaxian Sect to teach their disciples.

"Er Zi!" Li Tian called.

Fei Yinzi turned and his eyes widened in surprise when he saw Li Tian, Feng Mo and Lei Ling. "Li-shibo! Feng-shibo! Lei-shishu!" he exclaimed as he ran towards them.

The three men smiled and hugged Fei Yinzi together. "Er Zi\'s gotten even more handsome! And stronger!" they exclaimed. "Sorry we haven\'t visited you. We don\'t want to disturb your training." They said and apologetically smiled.

"It\'s fine!" Fei Yinzi answered. "Li-shibo, Feng-shibo and Lei-shishu don\'t need to worry." He told them and smiled.

Li Tian, Feng Mo and Lei Ling felt their hearts were soothed when they saw their \'nephew\'s smile. "But, we just heard that you aren\'t good in alchemy?" Li Tian asked.

Fei Yinzi\'s smile froze while Sun Rong snickered. Qie Shi grimaced and hit Sun Rong. They didn\'t notice that Li Tian, Feng Mo and Lei Ling suddenly fell silent and only have one thought in their mind as they looked at the child\'s blushing face: da shixiong is also bad in alchemy.

Back then, Fei Yin is the worst one in alchemy. They remembered that they have asked Cheng Sheng about this one time and Cheng Sheng said that Fei Yin is unable to harmonize with the nature, which the alchemy comes from. So, it was no surprise that Fei Yin will suck in alchemy. Although he can cast spells and make talismans, but they are weak.

"Li-shibo, Lei-shishu… sorry." Fei Yinzi apologized, waking them up from their daze.

"It\'s fine…" Li Tian and Lei Ling told him and smiled, while Feng Mo sighed in the back. He looked at Sun Rong and Qie Shi whose smile in their faces now disappeared and they are looking at Fei Yinzi with complicated eyes. He can guess what they are thinking.

Fei Yinzi is really like Fei Yin. Their faces also looked similar, though it was because they are from the same clan. They really can\'t blame Cheng Sheng for acting like that towards Fei Yinzi. If they were in Cheng Sheng\'s shoes, they figured that they might not even able to keep themselves sane. Not only due to the pain, but also to be constantly reminded seeing the child every time.

So, they really admire Cheng Sheng to be able to still holding on despite seeing his disciple slowly becoming more and more like Fei Yin, his dead lover. They can only say that Cheng Sheng is very incredible.
