Chapter 158 - The Scum Is A Plague
Outside the secret realm.
Like what Tang Teng did, the audience looked away and covered their eyes when they1 hurt. This is too pitiful… too pitiful! They thought. They were referring to the Huakai Sect. The Huakai Sect was infected by Shan Lu\'s bad luck.
No! Their eyes widened by their realization. The Huakai Sect is infected by a plague called Cheng Sheng! They thought. Ever since the Huakai Sect had crossed paths with Cheng Sheng, not only Shan Lu, but even the others1 met misfortune. Just like now. They thought as they watched the exchange between the two2 groups.
On the other hand, Tang Teng felt like he\'s going to faint as he watched the scene that followed.
Inside the secret realm.
"Really?" Tang Zhe\'s face lit up and he sighed in relief. He looked at his fellow disciples whose clothes are torn and their face black from being burned after being hit by Tang Yun\'s and Kang Ce\'s attacks while they1 were sleeping. Tang Yun had it worst since his arm was bleeding. Meanwhile, Kang Ce ran away. They had used up most of their magic pills and potions just to heal their wounds last night. Now, they had only few left.
"Yes." Yu Sheng nodded as he answered. Chen Han, Li Tian, Feng Mo and Xiao Le were speechless on the side. They didn\'t expect such coincidence to happen!
Tang Zhe turned to Yu Sheng and smiled. "Thank you – " he said.
However, Yu Sheng suddenly raised his hand indicating for him to stop. "Wait." He said. "Our magic pills are limited." He told them.
"What?" Tang Zhe was surprised.
"You\'re not the only one who needs magic pills." Yu Sheng said as he crossed his arms. "We will need them, too." He explained.
"That goes without saying." Tang Zhe nodded in understanding. "However, don\'t you have Cheng… Sheng…" he said, his voice faded when he realized it.
Yu Sheng nodded and sadly smiled. "You see. Cheng Sheng had split up from our group. You know why, right?" he told Tang Zhe and sighed.
"Yes…" Tang Zhe absent-mindedly nodded. He was dumbfounded. That\'s right! Cheng Sheng left Chen Han\'s group. They are still in a cold war! He thought. How can this happen?! He wanted to pull his hair in frustration. "U-uhm… can\'t you – " he said.
Yu Sheng frowned and cut him off. "If you want us to reconcile with Cheng Sheng, we won\'t." he said. "And to do that just for you and your group\'s sake, definitely not." He glared at Tang Zhe. "Are you underestimating us?" he asked.
"No, no. I didn\'t mean that!" Tang Zhe waved his hands and blushed in embarrassment. "I apologize if I offended you. It\'s not what I meant!" he said and took a deep breath. Yu Sheng is surprisingly direct! He thought in surprise.
Yu Sheng\'s brows raised. "I see you now understand." He said and pointed to the other four. "Not to mention our group, but we also had to look after another burden." He said and pointed at the Alliance\'s disciple.
"…" seriously, why me?! the Alliance\'s disciple thought when he was implicated.
"As long as one belonged to our group, we\'re treating him as one of us." Yu Sheng continued. "Don\'t you agree?" he asked.
Tang Zhe nodded. His expression solemn. "Yes." he answered.
"So – " Yu Sheng crossed his arms. " – as I was saying, our magic pills are limited." He said. "We can sell you some, but not much." He told Tang Zhe.
Tang Zhe bit his lip. He looked conflicted. Then, he turned to his fellow disciples. "Alright." He said and sighed. Better than nothing. He thought as he took out his money purse. "How much for a bottle?" he asked. When he saw Yu Sheng made a number with his fingers, his eyes widened in shock. "That\'s too expensive!" he exclaimed.
"Have you forgot? These magic pills are still made by Cheng Sheng." Yu Sheng said as he took out his bottle of magic pills. "Not to mention they are of high quality, these magic pills\' worth is of a master mage\'s." he explained. Cheng Sheng was already promoted as a master mage.
"That\'s…" Tang Zhe said and sighed in defeat. "I will buy them." he said. "Give us ten bottles." He told Yu Sheng.
"Da shixiong! That\'s too much!" Guo Cheng said.
Tang Zhe turned to them. "Money in exchange of your life is a cheap bargain." He told them before he turned to Yu Sheng and gave him the money purse.
Yu Sheng kindly smiled before he turned to Chen Han, Li Tian, Feng Mo and Xiao Le. He ignored the Alliance\'s disciple. "Quick. Give me your bottles. That\'s two bottles from each of us." He told them and brightly smiled as he took out his share.
"…" Chen Han, Li Tian, Feng Mo and Xiao Le who were still dumbfounded of what had just happened and gave their bottles to Yu Sheng who placed exactly ten bottles of magic pills on his qiankun pouch. Yu Sheng, you\'re too amazing! They thought as they looked at him in awe.
Yu Sheng held back his laugh. I had dealt with more powerful people before in His Highness and I\'s world. This is nothing. He thought as he walked back to Tang Zhe. "I don\'t want to take advantage of your team." He said as he took out five bottle of potions and few talismans and placed them inside the qiankun pouch before he gave it to Tang Zhe who was shocked. He smiled at them. His eyes and smile filled with sympathy. "I won\'t need the potions and talismans that much, so…" he said. He won\'t need them since he\'s strong, and that they would meet with Cheng Sheng in the future!
Tang Zhe\'s face brightened and he looked at Yu Sheng as if he was their sect\'s savior. "Thank you." He said, his eyes filled with gratitude. He then went back to his sect and they walked back to their shelter which is coincidentally near to the Xinfaxian Sect and Youxiwang Sect\'s shelter to recuperate.
"…" Chen Han, Li Tian, Feng Mo and Xiao Le who suddenly felt guilty. They looked at Yu Sheng who was smiling brightly.
"…" the Alliance\'s disciple who witnessed the whole scene. I will definitely conscientiously do my tasks when I leave this secret realm. He thought, his heart felt tired.
Outside the secret realm, the sect leaders could hear the armrest of Tang Teng\'s chair cracked and was pulverized. His face is as dark as the storm last night in the secret realm. Because it was too dark, they didn\'t notice Chen Han\'s group is actually near from the Huakai Sect\'s shelter. Tang Teng hoped Tang Zhe and the others wouldn\'t meet Chen Han\'s group. But, who would expect they would1 the moment they left their shelter?!
"…" Lei Ling, Lei Qing, You Rou and Zuo Zhe. They could feel the piercing gaze of the audience behind them. Lei Ling, Lei Qing and You Rou are affiliated with Cheng Sheng since they are fellow disciples while Zuo Zhe is affiliated with Yu Sheng as his lover.
Who is his lover?! Zuo Zhe thought as he felt his face reddened in shame. Yu Sheng, you bastard! How could you scam a surprisingly pure and honest Tang Zhe?! He thought. He couldn\'t believe this was the considerate, kind, just and honest male lead he wrote. Where is the considerate, kind, just and honest Yu Sheng that I wrote? QAQ he thought as he cried in his heart. I feel so tired… he thought.
He had read transmigration novels before. He thought it was fun and magical. He couldn\'t believe only the magical part is true. It wasn\'t any fun at all! He felt so tired! Orz
Inside the secret realm, Cheng Sheng and Fei Yin split up with the Zunjingde Sect. It was only natural since they wouldn\'t want to steal the prey of others. Also –
"Ah. A message from brother and Sun-shixiong!" Cheng Sheng said and smiled wbrightly when he saw two Voice Transmitting Talismans flew coming from two opposite directions. He caught them and burned them.
"Ah Sheng/Cheng-shidi. We\'ve done our tasks!" Chen Han and Sun Yi\'s voice that came from the talismans said. Chen Han and Sun Yi left the Alliance disciples\' monitoring range and hid to send him – who has no Alliance disciple on his side to monitor him, a message.
Cheng Sheng grinned as he watched the talismans\' ashes be carried away by the wind. Then, he shielded his eyes when the sun\'s rays hit his face. "Wu Xi?" he called.
"…" Fei Yin who saw Wu Xi appeared from the bushes.
Cheng Sheng also turned and laughed. "Good work hiding from the Cleansing Stone\'s monitoring." He told him. "Where is it now?" he asked.
Wu Xi nodded and pointed the direction of the south.
Cheng Sheng was surprised. "It is leading us, huh?" he said and chuckled.
"It\'s really clever." Fei Yin said as they looked at the mountain ranges in the south.
There are dark clouds with lightning on their peak.
