The Scum Is A ***

Before Fei Yin and Cheng Sheng could return, their attention was caught because of a commotion from the plaza. Fei Yin and Cheng Sheng were about to leave, just minding their own business when they caught sight of a sword glare that rose from the center of the ground. They couldn't be any more familiar since the glare is of Lei Qing's! "Shijie!" they exclaimed and immediately ran towards the crowd. They had to fight their way through the crowd since the present people don't recognize them as Lei Qing and Feng Mo's fellow disciples. They are not wearing their sect uniform during their travel. They still don't forget that Cheng Sheng is bring targeted by enemies to refine his soul.

"That's a warning!" they heard Lei Qing's voice said. Just because you outnumber my shidi and I, you think you can win against us?" she asked.

"You're just a woman." the eldest disciple of the Dongcheng Sect said. "And your shidi is too short." He said. His fellow disciples behind him snickered.

That's not true. Although Feng Mo is shorter than Fei Yin, Cheng Sheng, Li Tian and Lei Qing, but he is still taller than Lei Ling and You Rou. The Dongcheng Sect is just slandering Feng Mo. Even the crowd can see that. However, Feng Mo isn't rash, not he is still the hot-tempered youth 10 years ago that cried after he tried to bully Cheng Sheng for being inept in cultivation, but Cheng Sheng bullied him instead.

Feng Mo just indifferently glanced at the Dongcheng Sect disciples before he turned to Lei Qing whose brows are raised as she scrutinized the Dongcheng Sect disciples. "Shijie. Want some help?" he asked.

"No need." Lei Qing answered. "I can handle them myself." She coolly answered and raised her sword. However, she didn't use her qi. Instead, she'll be fighting with using only her sword skills.

"Ha! Arrogant woman!" someone from the Dongcheng Sect said.

"I'll fight with her." Their eldest disciple said. They don't have a female disciple with them. The cultivation world may not look like they're feminist, but they are under the surface. "Woman, be honored that the eldest disciple of the Dongcheng Sect will be fighting with you!" he said and unsheathed his sword. Like Lei Qing, he didn't light it with qi.

The crowd immediately gave them space, leaving Fei Yin and Cheng Sheng silently on the side watching the fight that's about to start. They saw Lei Qing rolled her eyes. "I don't want to be honored." She said and glanced at Fei Yin and Cheng Sheng when she noticed the two hiding. Feng Mo also noticed them. "Shidi. No one interferes!" she shouted.

"Yes!" Feng Mo answered and left. He went to the side where Fei Yin and Cheng Sheng are, leaving Lei Qing. The Dongcheng Sect disciples also went to the side, but they didn't see Fei Yin and Cheng Sheng arrived since they want to watch their da shixiong destroy Lei Qing. "Da shixiong. Cheng-shidi." Feng Mo called when he reached the pair. Even though Cheng Sheng is already stronger than him, yet they never had the intention to change their address to each other. Addressing is just a formality. No need to fret over it. They don't need it in Xinfaxian Sect if between just themselves.

"What happened?" Fei Yin immediately asked. They know that Lei Qing isn't someone rash.

"One of them wants to brush a good favor with their da shixiong by suggesting him to buy a comb for his fiancée." Feng Mo said. "However, shijie already has the comb. She was about to pay for it when the disciple stopped her and tried to rob the comb from her. The comb broke, and they refused to pay for the comb. They blamed shijie and wanted her to pay for the comb while shijie just wanted for them to apologize to the shop manager and pay for the comb." He narrated.

"How despicable!" Cheng Sheng exclaimed. "I'm so ashamed to be of east fellows with them." He clicked his tongue while shaking his head.

Feng Mo's brow twitched. Cheng-shidi… that doesn't show on your face. He thought and sighed as they turned, just in time to see the fight begin!

Meanwhile…

Lei Ling's face is dark while retreating as the person before him advanced, glaring at him menacingly. "How will you pay for my clothes?!" the young master said, his face full of arrogance.

Lei Ling cried internally while trying to make his face calm. How did this happen? QAQ Let's go back one hour earlier –

Sometime after Fei Yin, Cheng Sheng, Feng Mo and Lei Qing left, Lei Ling got bored meditating. He can't concentrate and so he sneaked out of the inn, afraid that Li Tian would scold him if he would slack off in training. He didn't dare disturb You Rou and brought her since he can't protect her in case something happens.

His decision to not bring You Rou was correct when he bumped to someone while he ate street food. He immediately turned in time to see a young master dressed up extravagantly and had a livid expression on his face when he turned to him.

"You poor ghost!" the young master cursed him and pointed his finger at him. There was a big stain of sauce in front of his clothes that's definitely expensive just looking at the high quality of the fabric.

Lei Ling gulped nervously as he took a step back. "I – I – " he said, stammering because of guilt and fear he's feeling right now as he looked at the sword hanging by the young master's waist. He's also a cultivator! He's definitely a disciple of a big sect! he thought. He's going to kill me! His eyes misted because of his tears and his nose started to turn red, making a sharp contrast against his fair cheeks that's also about to become red because of shame. He is clearly aware of the rules in Jianghu. Those who are strong can bully the weak. And he, Lei Ling, is unfortunately the weak. No one would object if he will be killed. Who told him to offend someone? They could only give them their pity for being so unfortunate and clumsy. If I'm going to die, I'm going to die after I put up a fight! He thought and his eyes glistening with tears burned with determination. He clenched his fists and took a deep breath as he stared at the young master before him. He raised his fist –… then he ran away in full speed.

Running is the most basic thing Xie Lan taught them. If someone wanted to blame him for being cowardly, then blame him all you want! At least he can buy himself a longer time to live!
