The Scum Is A ***

After they returned from Feng Hua Palace, they only saw refugees, but the houses in the Xinfaxian are well-built because Cheng Sheng's array protected the entire Xinfaxian. Because of the array, the demonic cultivators can't go inside and run rampant with their manslaughter and destroying the homes of the people.

When they went to Zhongyang, they have travelled by air and by land. However, since their focus is on finding Chen Han, Sun Yi, Lei Ling and Feng Mo, the destroyed villages and towns they have seen are the ones along their way. Even if Cheng Sheng saw the devastation in the Zhongyang, but the area he went around with is comparably small to the villages and town they had seen before. He was also preoccupied after in curing Zhengyi's condition, as well as Lei Ling's, and Jing Rui's in the process, and he is going back and forth between the Yunxiao Inn and Xinfaxian Sect through his array, so he has no time to walk around and see the entirety of devastation. Not to mention he was also been formulating how to defeat Qi Ling.

Wu Yuan is calm, as well as Fei Yin. Fei Yin has seen situations like this, and there are worse than this, when he was travelling between the different dimensions when he was still the Keeper of the Ten Thousand Dimensions. Cheng Sheng should, like Fei Yin, be calm as he has also travelled through many worlds.

However, Cheng Sheng, after he has known his origin, naturally, his mentality changed. He already has a sense of belongingness now, unlike before where he didn't feel any attachment to this world since he thought he was an 'outsider' before, and he would later leave this world. But, he was the prince of Bailong. Now, his identity is the second young master of the Chen Clan. Thus, he now feels he belongs to this world. And, after the people of this world grew in his heart, like the Xinfaxian Sect family, and the Chen family, he started to place more importance in this world than his life. For instance, the arrays he made to protect the Xinfaxian, as well as the Yunxiao Inn.

The Nanli Sect, or the Nanli City, is the largest devastation Cheng Sheng has seen during this calamity. "Nan Pingan!" he yelled. However, the wind in the desert has eaten away his voice. Fei Yin and Wu Yuan didn't stop him when he continued to call out, since there were no demonic cultivators around.

Because they have finished destroying everything, thus there's no need to stay or return to this place.

They jumped down from the hill and landed on the sand. "Nan Pingan! Nan Pinghe!" Cheng Sheng called out as he, Fei Yin and Wu Yuan looked around.

"Nan Pinghe! Nan Pinghe!" Wu Yuan called.

"Nan Pingan!" Fei Yin also called before he turned to Cheng Sheng. "Shall we split up?" he asked.

Cheng Sheng nodded. He flew west, looking around and behind the broken walls. He felt his hairs stood up as he looked at the splattered blood that already dried on the walls. He doesn't dare imagine the manslaughter that had happened.

He saw a brick house that missing its roof, which is one of the few houses that looked better than the other houses in the oasis left. He walked towards it and saw the door is missing as well, and the wooden windows are hanging off their frames. The house is empty. He figured that the Nanli Sect is poor, since the land is small. However, they are kind-hearted people, since they help the small city with their livelihood.

He sighed with emotion and turned to walk out, only to hear a muffled sound. A cultivator's ears are sharp, added to the fact of his power, he would never miss the sound. He sharply turned and looked around the empty house which the few furniture it has have been broken and overturned.

He walked back inside, making his steps lighter and he controlled his breathing. He didn't call out to not alert whoever was hiding. Because the sound is loose and always moves, it masked the location of the sound when he was about to pinpoint its location earlier.

Cheng Sheng slowly stepped forward before he suddenly stopped. A second later, he raised his hand, then lowered it with his palm facing the ground. A strong gust of wind blasted the sand on the ground in front of him. The sand that was blasted away floated around him, obscuring his sight. However, he could not mistake the breath of life underneath the ground.

When the sand settled, he has seen a small wooden door on the ground. He knelt and immediately opened it, only to be greeted by the sight of a small child sleeping. He carefully checked for any injuries before he sighed in relief and picked up the child from the small, hidden compartment underground.

Compared to Cheng Sheng, Wu Yuan and Fei Yin met a mishap. It was because they met some demonic cultivators who are unexpectedly sleeping inside the broken-down houses. Because they continued to call around for Nan Pinghe and Nan Pingan, the two people they know in Nanli Sect, they inevitably, and unknowingly, woke up the sleeping demonic cultivators.

Fei Yin met two demonic cultivators while Wu Yuan met five. Who could've expected to ran into demonic cultivators here?

"Little brother. You've been calling for people. What for?" a demonic cultivator asked Fei Yin.

Fei Yin wanted to just attack these two for their atrocious crimes. However, Jing Xian's voice inside his mind warned him not to be careless. Thus, he suppressed the disgust and irritation he felt. "These brothers, I have an enmity with Nan Pingan." He said.

"'Nan Pingan'? The son of Nan Pinghe, the sect master of Nanli Sect?" the other one spoke. "Is this little brother blind? This small city in the oasis is the Nanli Sect's territory. As you can see, everything has been razed to the ground." He said. "No need to thank us brothers." He said and yawned. Obviously, he's still sleepy.

Fei Yin's hand inside his sleeve clenched in anger. Damn these people! They're not humans! He thought as he raged inside. However, his tone still sounds respectful. "These brothers, may I ask if there is any survivor?" he asked.

The demonic cultivators didn't suspect him since one, they are still sleepy after being forcefully roused in their sleep. Two, the demonic cultivators are known to be perverse. Even if it's an ordinary person, they would slowly torture until the said person despairs and kills himself. So, they assumed Fei Yin wanted to find any survivor and kill them to vent his anger because of Nan Pingan.

As expected, their grin is malicious. "Little brother, I have heard some has escaped. However, just three days ago, we've heard a strange sound here. We suspect there's someone that was left here, and so we are waiting for the person to either die of hunger, or reveal himself because of hunger." They said and laughed.

Fei Yin's eyes turned bloodshot from the suppressed anger. However, these demonic cultivators thought Fei Yin is excited. "Little brother, if you want, you can join us and hunt this little rabbit that was separated from their pack – " one of the demonic cultivators said. He was cut off when they heard an explosion on the other side of the oasis. "What the – " they muttered when they saw the sand, as well as the rubbles, flew in the air.

Fei Yin also turned. That's where Wu Yuan is! He was about to move when the two demonic cultivators spoke. "Looks like Zhu-xiong caught a prey? Could it be it?" one of them asked.

"Hahaha!" the other one laughed.

They then turned to Fei Yin. "Little brother. Would you like to join us?" they asked. "We can ask Zhu-xiong to give to give you the little rabbit's head." They told him.

Fei Yin's brows are twitching in anger, but he surprisingly maintained his calm voice. "Yes." These bastards, talking about a human life like it's a dog's life! He thought and glared at their backs when they flew.

Fei Yin might be a righteous cultivator, but he isn't an authentic one. He isn't a human to begin with. And so, the two demonic cultivators felt a killing intent from their back. However, it was too late. They saw the dark water of the oasis beneath them became closer. They thought they fell from the air. However, when they turned, they actually saw their body from neck down still in the air, amounted their sword.

Fei Yin coldly watched as two heads fell in the dark water of the oasis before he slapped down the two headless bodies in front of him. The headless bodies fell, together with the swords that lost their owners. Then, he flew across the oasis to aid Wu Yuan. Based from the two demonic cultivators' words earlier, this 'Zhu-xiong' should be strong.
