The Scum Is A ***

"Jing Kang already compensated me by staying in the Xinfaxian Sect and help our sect fight against the demons' attack in exchange of a consultation for sect leader Jing!" Cheng Sheng told them. "Of course, I will ask Jing Cheng or the Zunjingde Sect for compensation once I cured sect leader Jing." He slyly grinned. He even winked at them.

Shu Mu and Xiao Le. "…" that smile that is asking for a beating… endure… endure… they thought. This was how Cheng Sheng always been. 

Suddenly, Cheng Sheng made a pause. "Maybe I should also charge the Righteous Alliance since they will benefit in sect leader Jing's recovery?" he asked. "Hmm…" he muttered as he seriously pondered.

Shu Mu and Xiao Le. "…" A leopard doesn't change its spots. They thought with a blank expression on their faces. This is very true for Cheng Sheng. He really is an opportunist. He would take advantage of whatever situation it is to rake in money. Why have they forgotten this? They helplessly sighed.

A scum is really a scum. They should've known… they should've known… sigh. They thought that because of Cheng Sheng's temperament that changed after he lost Fei Yin and became brokenhearted, Cheng Sheng has changed. Yes, his temperament changed. Yet his inside didn't! it is still black! He is a black-hearted businessman!

Jing Cheng, Zunjingde Sect, Righteous Alliance, watch out! Shu Mu and Xiao Le thought.

"Shizun." Fei Yinzi called after he saw that Cheng Sheng, Shu Mu and Xiao Le seemed to have finished their talk. "Your snacks." He spoke as he opened his palm.

"… you have learned how to discipline me now?" Cheng Sheng asked as he narrowed his eyes and looked at Fei Yinzi.

Fei Yinzi's expression didn't change. Back then in Hujing, he broke the hind legs of Cheng Sheng's chair to stop the other from gambling. Yet, this man didn't stop. So, he can only try. "Ruwe nuts are hard to find. The shopkeeper said that the supplier provides them only per month." He spoke. "And the Ruwe nuts are popular, but only small in quantity. So…" he said. He hasn't finished his words when he felt something soft touched his palm.

"… make sure to hide it from me. I don't want to wait for a month just to taste it again." Cheng Sheng said as he looked at the qiankun pouch with reluctance in his eyes.

Shu Mu and Xiao Le. "…" wow. Fei Yinzi is very promising! He really made Cheng Sheng give him his snacks! They thought as they looked at Fei Yinzi with admiration in their eyes.

"Tch." Cheng Sheng clicked his tongue and frowned.

Fei Yinzi didn't say anything nor did his expression change as he hid the qiankun pouch that stores his master's snacks. "… huh?" he muttered and blinked, thinking that he has seen wrong after he saw something… or someone, in the ground.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Sheng asked when he heard Fei Yinzi's voice.

"… shizun. There is someone there." Fei Yinzi answered as he pointed below.

Cheng Sheng, Shu Mu and Xiao Le turned. Cheng Sheng's expression changed and he froze before his expression returned to normal after a second. "What did you see?" he asked as he looked at his disciple. "And call me 'shifu'." He added, reminding him.

Fei Yinzi's expression changed and it took him a long time before he can answer. "… someone." He said.

"Who?" Cheng Sheng asked.

"… a disciple." Fei Yinzi answered. As if he can say that it was Cheng Sheng that he saw!

Cheng Sheng sneered while Shu Mu and Xiao Le were just silent as they watched the pair of master and disciple. Fei Yinzi felt his scalp numb after he saw his master's expression but he has to remain tough. He can't tell him!

"Oh." Cheng Sheng muttered and was about to eat some nuts when he remembered that Fei Yinzi took it from him. His face darkened, as he remembered that his disciple chose to lie to him just now! "Leave them." He said, referring to the 'person' on the ground.

"Yes." Fei Yinzi, Shu Mu and Xiao Le answered.

After a while. "… that was a demon… was it?" Fei Yinzi asked.

Shu Mu and Xiao Le suddenly felt the air became cold. Wait, no. They are flying so why the air shouldn't be cold?! But! They looked at Fei Yinzi, then at Cheng Sheng. Why did it suddenly become colder?! Their faces darkened. They know that it was a demon that Fei Yinzi has seen. But, why did Fei Yinzi lie to Cheng Sheng?! Who is it?! Who did Fei Yinzi see in that demon?! Is it so someone important?!

Fei Yinzi has become secretive!

Demons have a skill that can change their appearance, or that make the one seeing them see them as another person, or the person they love or long to see. That is one of the reasons why the demons can easily beguile humans.

"Children…" Cheng Sheng spoke. "You should cherish the time while they were still young." He said.

"Why?" Xiao Le, this slow person, asked.

Shu Mu covered his face with his hand, feeling embarrassed. Can't Xiao Le read the atmosphere? It is tense! Fei Yinzi and Cheng Sheng are in a cold war!

Cheng Sheng smiled, and Shu Mu and Fei Yinzi felt their hairs rose when they saw that smile of Cheng Sheng that spells murder.

"Because children are honest when they are younger. When they have grown up… heh." Cheng Sheng said.

Shu Mu and Fei Yinzi felt their scalp becoming numb. That 'heh' speaks volume.

"Shizun…" Fei Yinzi called in a small voice.

"What did you call me?" Cheng Sheng asked, smiling brightly that his eyes turned into crescents. But, that smile is hiding knives!

"… shifu." Fei Yinzi called. If he doesn't call him 'shifu' now, he knows that Cheng Sheng would not hesitate to throw him to the lake below.

Cheng Sheng nodded, satisfied. "I know what Er Zi wants to say. You like to train, right?" he asked.

"… yes." Fei Yinzi gulped. Oh, no… he thought as he broke into a cold sweat. I shouldn't have provoked him! He thought, feeling regretting now.

Xiao Le now realized what is happening and he is silently watching the pair of master and disciple.

"Then, Er Zi should practice tonight five hundred upward strike, five hundred downward strike, five hundred rightward strike, five hundred leftward strike and five hundred forward strike with five hundred backward strike and five hundred turning strike." Cheng Sheng spoke in one breath, but he doesn't even feel breathless. That is how angry he is, and Fei Yinzi now wonders how he should appease his master.

"This disciple obeys." Fei Yinzi answered. Let's do what he wants me to do first. He thought. This is the first step of appeasing Cheng Sheng. Next… "Shiz… shifu." He called. This is the second step: calling him what he likes you to call him.

"Yes?" Cheng Sheng answered.

The third step – "I… I have prepared some snacks for shiz… shifu…" Fei Yinzi said. Bribery! "Would shizu… shifu likes to taste some?" he asked.

"What snacks?" Cheng Sheng asked.

"Cakes." Fei Yinzi answered. Give him his favorites! This is the right bribery! He thought.

"Oh. Give me some." Cheng Sheng said.

Fei Yinzi immediately took out a qiankun pouch and opened it. A fragrant and sweet aroma pervaded the air. "Shizu… shifu. Please try it!" he said and gave the qiankun pouch that is filled with fresh and warm cakes inside.

"Good." Cheng Sheng said and immediately took a bite.

Shu Mu and Xiao Le subconsciously gulped, wanting to taste the cake, too. But, they know that Fei Yinzi is still appeasing Cheng Sheng.

The last step… Fei Yinzi thought. "Shizu… shifu." He called. "I was wrong." He said. Apologize!

"Where are you wrong?" Cheng Sheng asked.

"This disciple shouldn't have lied to shizu… shifu." Fei Yinzi answered. Admit your mistakes!

"Will you lie to me again?" Cheng Sheng asked.

"This disciple wouldn't dare." Fei Yinzi answered.

"Don't rest or sleep until you finished your punishment." Cheng Sheng told him.

"Yes, shizu… shifu!" Fei Yinzi bowed. Accept the punishment! Finished! He thought and secretly sighed in relief.

"… from which family is she?" Cheng Sheng asked.

"Huh?" Fei Yinzi raised his head and looked at his master, feeling confused. What family? What is this now? He thought.

"The girl that you like." Cheng Sheng said.

"… huh?" Fei Yinzi felt more confused. What girl? I don't know any girl aside from Lei-shigu and You-shigu! Oh… and You-shigu's and Lei-shigu's disciples.

"Didn't you just see her earlier?" Cheng Sheng asked as he looked at him. "From which family is she? Do I know her?" he asked.

"… yes." Fei Yinzi answered. His master should know his own self, right?

"Oh. Which sect? From our sect?" Cheng Sheng asked.

"Yes." Fei Yinzi nodded. They are from the same sect since they are a master and his disciple.
