The Scum Is A ***

Why did they want to ask which group of demonic cultivators is Wu Ran controlling, and that why not Wu Ran can control both? Because it's a brainless question! If Wu Ran us controlling both groups of demonic cultivators, then why did those demonic cultivators that came from a tribe kill the other group of demonic cultivators? If, just if, Wu Ran is really controlling both groups, then Wu Ran is the brainless one! 

Why make the two groups fight and lessen their number? Just for a play? Then, it is a brainless move. 

Everyone has their own thoughts and shared them with others. But, they still can't help but looked at the Millennium Ship floating above them. If only Xie Lan, Fan Wen and Jing Rui are awake, maybe they know more and would have an idea about what is happening. 

"Everyone, come here! We noticed something!" Qian Lin called and waved at them. "Quick!" he added. 

Everyone turned and went to their side. They saw two corpses lie on the ground side by side, and their faces were revealed. One is the usual demonic cultivators, the one that came from Huilong Continent. The other one is the demonic cultivator from the Heilong Realm, belonging to a tribe. 

"What did you find?" Zuo Zhe asked as he looked at Qian Lin, Jing Hei, Jing Bai, Zheng Yi, Jing Cheng and Jing Kang. 

"Their skin's tone!" Jing Bai answered and pointed to the two corpses. "The demonic cultivators of Huilong Continent are fairer-skinned compared to the ones that came from Heilong Realm." He explained. 

Everyone looked and, indeed, the demonic cultivators from the Heilong Realm are tanner than the demonic cultivators of Huilong Continent. 

"Could it be the sun is stronger in the Heilong Realm?" Lei Ling asked as he stood beside Lei Qing, Li Tian and Feng Mo. 

You Rou was left in the ship along with Qian Tian to watch over the unconscious Xie Lan, Fan Wen and Xi Ling. Meanwhile, Yu Sheng and Fei Lin are scouting the surroundings. 

"Everyone is dead." Fei Lin spoke as he and Yu Sheng returned. They found the corpses of both groups of demonic cultivators in the oasis area, too. 

"They must have killed each other to death." Yu Sheng said and smiled. 

Everyone shuddered at his smile. Who looks so happy facing the death of many people? 

"Poor soul." Li Tian suddenly spoke. 

They all turned to him. They saw him looking at a child's corpse. 

"A child…" they were all shocked. 

Lei Ling and Feng Mo looked away while Li Tian closed his eyes and uttered a prayer. 

"Old and young, men and women, kings and beggars… all are equal in death." Yu Sheng said as he walked away. 

Zuo Zhe looked at Yu Sheng's back before he followed him. The Zunjingde Sect disciples and Qian Lin decided to erect a grave for the child, and everyone agreed. They looked for an empty area to bury the child. Some of them dug a pit while the others looked for flowers around to place on the grave they will be making. They asked Fei Lin to make an epitaph for the child and Fei Lin willingly agreed. 

"Yu Sheng." Zuo Zhe called after Yu Sheng stopped. 

Yu Sheng was looking at the contaminated oasis below them. "What?" he spoke. 

"You know those demonic cultivators from the Heilong Realm… right?" Zuo Zhe asked. 

Yu Sheng didn't speak. 

"I noticed your strange reaction before when we captured them. Now, I confirmed my suspicion." Zuo Zhe said and watched as Yu Sheng slowly turned to him. "Do they have something to do with your and Cheng Sheng's world?" he asked. 

"Yes." Yu Sheng honestly answered. 

Zuo Zhe's heart sank. 

"Precisely, to that man." Yu Sheng added. 

Zuo Zhe's eyebrows knitted. "Who?" he asked. 

"That man…" Yu Sheng muttered as he lowered his head. He didn't immediately give him a name. Instead, he asked something. "Zhe." He called. 

"Hm?" Zuo Zhe answered. 

"This world… and that world…" Yu Sheng spoke, his words fragmented because he doesn't know how to phrase it. 

"What is it?" Zuo Zhe urged for him to speak. 

"… could there be a time difference between the two worlds?" Yu sheng asked. 

Zuo Zhe's eyes widened in shock. "What… what do you mean?" he asked as he felt his breath hitched. 

"The hairstyle of the group of demonic cultivators from Heilong Realm…" Yu Sheng said. "There's only one person… no – " he shook his head. " – being, that I have seen it from." He said. 

"It's… that man?" Zuo Zhe asked. 

Yu Sheng nodded. "En. But – " his brows knitted. " – this can't be… he disappeared for a long time, and I don't even know about his life or death. I didn't expect…" his voice trailed off. 

"He's still alive, and he came to this world like you and Cheng Sheng?" Zuo Zhe supplemented Yu Sheng's words. 

"Yes." Yu Sheng answered. "But…" he said, at a loss for words. 

But, Zuo Zhe could guess what Yu Sheng wanted to say. "I don't know all the details of your world, but the time in your world doesn't match the time in this world." He explained for him. 

"Yeah." Yu Sheng answered. 

"Indeed…" Zuo Zhe muttered. "I also noticed, back then during the Intersect Competition, in the last stage, when you all went to the Feng Hua Palace…" he looked at Yu Sheng. "I can't… see that world. If not for our life and death contract, we wouldn't have anything that could make us communicate, albeit vaguely." He explained. 

Yu Sheng looked at him. "You mean…" he said. 

Zuo Zhe nodded. "I don't think it's the time." He said. "It's the space." He told him. 

"The space?" Yu Sheng asked. 

"Take the Huilong Continent and the Heilong Realm as examples." Zuo Zhe spoke. "The Huilong Continent and the Heilong Realm are placed in this same world, but they are also different from each other. It is because they have different spaces, and they coexist in this world." He explained. 

Yu Sheng gaped at Zuo Zhe. He understood. "So, it's because of this space that's why the time in our world and this world doesn't match each other?" he asked. 

Zuo Zhe nodded. "Yes. But, the time in Huilong Continent and the Heilong Realm are the same." He said. "Unlike your world and this world." He looked at Yu Sheng. 

Yu Sheng frowned. "What does this mean?" he asked. 

"The difference of the both worlds make the space unstable." Zuo Zhe answered. "Thus, affecting time." He said.

"If this is so… then – " Yu Sheng took a deep breath. " – it is really him." he said. 

"That… man?" Zuo Zhe asked. 

Yu Sheng nodded. 

"You still haven't told me who he is." Zuo Zhe reminded him. 

Yu Sheng looked at him, then smiled. But, his smile didn't reach his eyes and instead looked gloomy. "Come closer." He told him. 

Zuo Zhe walked towards Yu Sheng and stopped in front of him. Yu Sheng leaned down. Maybe because he felt gloomy of what he found out, he didn't play tricks on Zuo Zhe to steal a kiss. Instead, he placed his lips beside Zuo Zhe's ear and whispered a name. 

It took a second before Zuo Zhe's whole body froze and his eyes widened, stunned. His pupils constricted as he repeated the name in his mind. "… F*CK!" he cursed before he took a step backwards in shock. 

But, his knees have weakened from fright because of what he found out and he almost fell on his back. Fortunately, Yu Sheng caught him in time and pulled him into his embrace. His ear and cheek on Yu Sheng's chest and he could hear Yu Sheng's heartbeat, and also feel Yu Sheng's chest vibrating because he spoke. 

"I didn't expect this, either." Yu Sheng said. "I mean, at first, I thought he disappeared. When I came to the Feng Hua palace and went to the secret space in the Spring of Life, I didn't find any trace of him. so, I assumed he died." He explained. "Along with that other man." He added. 

Zuo Zhe absent-mindedly uttered the other man's name and heard Yu Sheng hummed a response. 

"En. That's him." Yu Sheng spoke. "But, if this man is really alive… then, that other man must also be alive." He said. 

Zuo Zhe sharply inhaled because of the successive shocking information he heard. "If this man is really what we thought he is, then he must be the one controlling the Heilong Realm…" he said. "The Heilong emperor…" he muttered. 

Yu Sheng nodded. "En." He answered. 

"How about the other man?" Zuo Zhe asked. 

"I don't know where he is…" Yu Sheng honestly answered. "It has been a long, long time…" he said. 

Zuo Zhe sighed in disappointment. 

"What's wrong?" Yu Sheng asked when he saw Zuo Zhe's heavy expression. 

"If that man is really the Heilong emperor, then we can only admit defeat and surrender." Zuo Zhe said with a serious expression.
