The Scum Is A ***

"They must be a tribe." Qian Tian spoke as he thoughtfully looked at the braided hair of the demonic cultivator with colorful beads at the ends. 

"A tribe?" Lei Qing asked as she pulled the mask of the demonic cultivator. 

They saw some tattoos on the demonic cultivator's chest, neck and cheeks. The tattoos looked eccentric, especially the symbols drawn aside from the strange characters which they couldn't understand. But, given that they haven't met any tribes in the continent, naturally, they wouldn't know anything about interpreting tattoos. 

Jing Hei pondered. "Uncle said that there were tribes in the past." He said. "These tribes are what occupying the continent. But, over time, they disappeared for some reason." He explained and looked at the corpse of the demonic cultivator. 

"But, they are here now…" Qian Lin said. 

"Did they become demonic cultivators and hid?" You Rou asked. 

"How long could they have hid, only to resurface now…" Lei Ling muttered. 

"Lei Ling, You Rou, Qian Lin. Go set up the barrier." Qian Tian said. "Jing Hei, Lei Qing and I will throw away the corpses after inspecting them." He said. 

"Yes!" they answered and everyone began to move. 

Heilong Realm. 

"What does the emperor of the Heilong look like?" Cheng Sheng asked as Bai Yun served them tea and snacks. "What kind of person is he? Or, is he not human? Is he a monster?" he asked. 

"He's not a human, but he's also not a monster, literally." Bai Yun answered. 

"What does that mean?" Wu Yuan asked. "What kind of being is he?" 

Bai Yun turned to him. "A god." He answered. 

Cheng Sheng, Fei Yin and Bai Yun were stunned. A god?! Their eyes widened as they looked at each other. 

Fei Yin and Cheng Sheng's face turned serious. They know that Cheng Sheng is a demigod, as well as Yu Sheng, since Cheng Sheng and Yu Sheng are Hui Shen, the god of creation's, children. However, Hui Shen is already dead. Bai Shen's and Hei Shen's whereabouts are unknown in the other world, and they expected them to be dead because all the other worlds were destroyed by the Devourer, and only their world remained. 

So, how come there is a god in this world? Fei Yin and Cheng Sheng knows this world may be xianxia, but the immortals that already ascended are not gods, since a god is omnipotent. Thus, this world has no god! It's supposed to has no god! 

But, they suddenly remembered that the Heilong Realm is another dimension. It was superimposed with this dimension, thus both dimensions became connected to each other. The question is, where did this Heilong realm come from? From Huilong continent itself? Can a dimension create another dimension on its own? 

"Jing Xian." Fei Yin called inside his mind. 

"My Lord." Jing Xian spoke. "The Heilong Realm really came from Huilong Continent." He said. "A new dimension really appeared in this dimension!" he told him. 

Fei Yin's brows knitted into a frown. "That can't be…" he looked at Cheng Sheng. Suddenly, something came to his mind and he felt enlightened. 

If Cheng Sheng, someone from another world, could come here, could a dimension give birth to another dimension is possible? 

Maybe lovers really are telepathic towards each other since Cheng Sheng understood Fei Yin's gaze and could read the change in Fei Yin's expression. So, the Heilong Realm came to because of me? He thought. They really don't believe that no matter how abundant the demonic qi is, it could create a realm. That was just them finding a cause to temporarily use and solve a problem. Cheng Sheng never expected that everything might be related to him. 

"Hm? What's wrong?" they heard Bai Yun asked. "Why do you look you've hit a wall?" he asked. 

"It's because we are very ignorant." Cheng Sheng answered. 

"'ignorant'?" Bai Yun was taken aback. "What do you mean?" he asked.

"Mr. Bai. We came to Heilong because of our concern for our parents." Cheng Sheng said. "We haven't seen much of the world, so we don't know how vast it is. Thus, he entered Heilong in a moment of impulsiveness, not giving much thought of the consequences of our decision." He explained, and his eyes reddened. "We just want our parents back. If not for my brother's and friend's exceptional martial arts, as well as my wittiness, we would have… would have – " he said as he hung his head in self-blame. 

Bai Yun's eyes widened in surprise. "So, you are…" he said. 

"We regret it." Cheng Sheng answered as he slumped his back on his chair. His eyes looked blank and his face looked bleak. "We thought we would immediately see our parents when we arrive. Who would've known that Heilong is so vast?" he asked and bitterly smiled. 

Bai Yun nodded, looking pensive. 

"Then, there's this emperor. And what that demonic cultivator said earlier, the Four Demonic Leaders…" Cheng Sheng exhaled a sigh. "Not to mention those Patrician Houses…" he added. 

Bai Yun nodded, seeming to finally understood what Cheng Sheng wants to convey. "I understand." He said. "Young people naturally have time to be rash and reckless, especially when it concerns their loved ones." He smiled as he sipped his tea. 

Cheng Sheng nodded. "Thank you for understanding, Mr. Bai." He said, his eyes are filled with gratitude. 

"No worries, no worries. I once was also a young man like you." Bai Yun said. 

Fei Yin and Wu Yuan. "…" waving a white flag. We admit defeat. Cheng Sheng is very good in acting! Even they, Cheng Sheng's conspirators, almost believed Cheng Sheng's acting. Cheng Sheng salvaged the situation earlier after they were shocked from what they have learned. 

Bai Yun, who didn't notice Fei Yin's and Wu Yuan's strange expression, sighed, full of pity as he looked at Cheng Sheng. "I'm really sorry if I can't help. I really haven't seen any righteous cultivator, except from you three." He said. His expression looked dismayed. 

"It's fine, it's fine…" Cheng Sheng said as he forced a smile. "We were just too ignorant, we almost died after being plotted against by that demonic cultivator." He said. "Thankfully, Mr. Bai is here to hint at us, so we noticed that something was wrong." He clutched his fist towards Bai Yun. 

"I can tell you what I know to be easier for you to look for your parents." Bai Yun proposed. 

"Really?!" Cheng Sheng's eyes brightened as he looked at Bai Yun. 

Bai Yun nodded as he flipped his fan open and fanned himself. "Yes. It's perfunctory." He told Cheng Sheng. 

"Then, can you tell us what are the things that should be avoided by us in Heilong when we continue to look for our parents later?" Cheng Sheng asked. 

"Hmm…" Bai Yun muttered as he pondered. He picked up a biscuit and ate it. "Aside from the Four Demonic Leaders and the Patrician Houses, you should also be more wary from now on towards the demonic cultivators you meet." He told them. 

Cheng Sheng nodded. "Is there anything else?" he asked. 

"Also, be more vigilant of the foods here." Bai Yun said and pointed the pastries he served to them. "Demonic cultivators are fond of 'exotic' foods." He told them. 

Cheng Sheng's eyes widened and he hastily nodded. "Thank you for the reminder!" he told him. 

Bai Yun smiled. "It's nothing." He answered.

Cheng Sheng sighed in relief, then sincerely smiled as he bowed to Bai Yun. "Many thanks, Mr. Bai." He said. "I hope we could meet us again!" he told him as he rose from his seat. 

Bai Yun nodded. "I apologize, my stable has no rooms for you to stay in." he said. "You should hurry, then. There's a town one li ahead. You will reach it by dusk with my horses." He told them. 

Fei Yin and Wu Yuan nodded at him and uttered thanks before going out to fetch the horses. "Thanks a lot for the help, Mr. Bai!" Cheng Sheng said again before he followed Fei Yin and Wu Yuan outside. 

Bai Yun smiled. "Good luck and take care!" he said before he looked at the gold ingot on the table. He picked it up and, without inspecting it, placed it inside his pouch. Then, he walked towards the backyard. 

The demonic cultivator's corpse was buried on the foot of the tree… and beside ten other graves. 

A smile appeared on Bai Yun's lips. "Good luck… and take care." He muttered before he walked back and closed the door leading to the backyard. 

Huilong Continent, Southmost Region. 

"Yu-ge! Young master Zuo, you're back!" Lei Ling exclaimed when he saw Yu Sheng and Zuo Zhe are flying towards the ship. 

"En." Yu Sheng nodded as he and Zuo Zhe landed. "Something happened?" he asked. 

Lei Ling almost cried and knelt before Yu Sheng. "There is!" he answered. 

"What is it?" Zuo Zhe asked. 

"We were attacked by demonic cultivators." You Rou spoke. A medicinal fragrance can be smelled from her body. She has just finished refining medicines.
