The Scum Is A ***
Chapter 31 - The Scum Is Pervert

"Spiritual Awakening, as its name implied, is awakening your spirit. However, since we are humans, it is our soul." Chen Jing started. "Soul is also a form of spirit."

"So, the spirit in our jade pendant – " Fei Yin said and looked at his jade pendant that has a spirit sleeping inside.

Chen Jing nodded. "When they develop their consciousness, their spirit will awaken." He said. "It was you who are controlling your sword and using your power. But, if the spirit of your sword will awaken, it can mobilize the sword itself. That way and your power will not be consumed too much." He explained. "However, there's a big difference between the spirit of the objects and the soul of the humans." He said, his face serious. "One is their form. The spirit only has spiritual body while the humans have our own physical body." He said. "The second is the soul and spirit. The spirit has no attachments since they only have a spiritual body. However, the humans have a physical body." He looked at Fei Yin. "One the soul was awakened, the body will have a big transformation." He told him.

Fei Yin's brows knit. "That's why he screamed – " he said, his heart pounded loudly when he remembered the heart-wrenching scream of Cheng Sheng. He closed his eyes tight.

Chen Jing nodded, then looked away. He could clearly see the pain in Fei Yin's eyes. He knew, Cheng Sheng have suffered. He balled his fists. "There is only one problem." He said after a while.

"What is it?" Fei Yin asked and wiped his tears that're falling non-stop.

"… I don't know the process of Spiritual Awakening." Chen Jing answered, his face serious. Fei Yin looked at him. He sighed. "Even if this is dangerous, this isn't a demonic cultivation." He said. "This doesn't involve demonic energy. But – " he looked at Fei Yin. " – this is also a taboo in the cultivation world." He told him. "One, because its process is unknown. Two – " he raised his fingers. " – since this is really dangerous. Even in the Righteous Way, there are dangers. The Righteous Way isn't also a safe path. And can even be more dangerous, more dangerous than the demonic path." He said and rose from his seat. "I want to tell you that there are no shortcuts in cultivation, though I know you don't do that. And, like you – " he looked at Fei Yin. " – I also want you to not misunderstand my son. That's all." He said and smiled. "I hope you could look after Sheng-er more. I'll leave him in your hands – his da shixiong." He said and walked to the door. "And, please, next time, don't leave the door open. I might suddenly see you kissing or undressing my son – hahahaha." He laughed when he saw Fei Yin's face went red. He then closed the door and left.

Fei Yin sighed and looked at Cheng Sheng. A smile formed on his lips. "You are saying you are not related to them, but see. You are like him. Very similar." He said and put his elbow on the bed. Then, he rested his jaw on his palm. He stared at Cheng Sheng. "Shidi…" he called. "When will you wake up?" he asked, his voice quiet. "Everyone is waiting for you." He told him. He touched his forehead, then saw the qi from his finger came out and went through Cheng Sheng's skin. Fei Yin's face became serious as he looked at his hand. "Shidi…" he called. This cultivation the man forced through Cheng Sheng is strange. Or is it that this is one of that cultivation's effect? He thought. But, Chen Qing said earlier – his body froze. He looked at Cheng Sheng, then his hand. "Wait – " he said and touched Cheng Sheng. His qi was sucked. His brows knit. "The Chen patriarch and I were talking. The Chen patriarch would tell me if something is wrong with shidi. So, why – " he said, then his eyes widened. He rose from his seat and looked around. Then, he immediately erected a barrier around Cheng Sheng's room. Cheng Sheng's body is undergoing a strange transformation right now. His body started absorbing qi like the jade talisman he always makes. Why? That man didn't tell him this would happen – he thought, puzzled.

Somewhere, the black-robed man sneezed. "Eew!" the young man before him frowned and moved away.

The man in the black robes rubbed his nose. "Who's talking bad about me?" he asked, puzzled.

"This one in front of you." The young man told him.

The man in the black robes looked at him. Then, he sexily grinned. "So you've finally started to think about me?" he asked as he lazily laid his elbow on the table and rested his cheek on his palm. He's staring at the young man, his gaze burning.

The young man frowned and ignored him. He helplessly laughed.

Xinfaxian Sect.

"Hm?" Xie Lan turned when he felt the air fluctuated for a second. The Xinfaxian residents have long returned to their home.

"What's wrong?" Fan Wen asked.

"Did you feel something?" Xie Lan asked.

"What?" Fan Wen said.

Xie Lan looked back. When he felt nothing, he shrugged. He turned to Chen Jing, Chen Qing, Ming Ye, Luo Shi, Wu Yuan, Sun Yi and Chen Han. Then, he bowed. "Many thanks, Chen-shixiong. Chen-shijie. Ming-shixiong. Luo-shixiong. Disciple Wu. Disciple Sun. Disciple Chen." He said and nodded at them. "Xie is grateful and will forever remember the aid you have given to us. Xie will repay you with the same kindness in the future." He said and bowed again. Fan Wen followed him.

Chen Jing nodded and smiled. "Then, may we bother Xie-shidi and Fan-shidi to take us back to the Youxiwang Sect using the array." He said.

Xie Lan and Fan Wen nodded as they stood on the both side of the array and activated it. "Please take care." They both said.

"You, too." They told them. Then, a bright light covered them and they disappeared.

"Whew!" Fan Wen wiped the sweat off his forehead.

"Are you alright?" Xie Lan asked, worried.

Fan Wen smiled. "I am fine." He said. "We should check the disciples. They were also tired." The told him.

Xie Lan nodded. "After this and you also rest, alright?" he said and combed Fan Wen's hair that's slightly messy.

Fan Wen sweetly smiled. "You, too." He told Xie Lan. They walked back, hand-in-hand.

Fei Yin caught his breath as he slumped on the floor, sweating profusely and breathing heavily. He didn't bother wiping his sweat as he checked on Cheng Sheng's condition. He sighed in relief when Cheng Sheng's body has stopped absorbing qi. It was only an incense time, yet Fei Yin felt really tired. He immediately removed the barrier around Cheng Sheng's room. He was about to turn and walk back to his seat to rest. However, he miscalculated his strength. His knees have gone weak and so he fell on Cheng Sheng's bed – precisely on Cheng Sheng. Fei Yin's eyes are wide as he stared at Cheng Sheng's face very close to his. He felt their breath mingled with each other.

He held his breath as those closed eyes slightly opened and revealed a pair of beautiful pupils that're sparkling and bright like the stars. Cheng Sheng blinked when he saw Fei Yin's handsome face is close to his. "Da shixiong?" he called, then heard his voice is hoarse. His throat is dry from not drinking water.

However, to Fei Yin, it sounded husky and sexy. He felt his throat went dry. He needed to drink water. He immediately got off on top of Cheng Sheng and fetched him water. "Shidi." He called, then noticed his voice croaked. He cleared his throat, regaining his calm. "Drink this." He said and handed Cheng Sheng a bottle of water.

Cheng Sheng nodded and gingerly took the cup. Then, he drank in one gulp. "More." He said, feeling thirsty.

Fei Yin nodded and silently poured Cheng Sheng's cup of water. "How are you feeling, shidi?" he asked as he also poured himself water and immediately emptied it. Then, he filled both cups with water. He handed one to Cheng Sheng and he took one for himself.

Cheng Sheng stared at the cup Fei Yin gave him, then looked at Fei Yin. This is da shixiong's cup, ah. He thought, then remembered Fei Yin's red and sweaty face earlier when he's on top of him. What was da shixiong trying to do earlier? As a transmigrator, he had seen all kinds of people. So, he already noticed Fei Yin's excessive care towards him. Is da shixiong… does he have that kind of thought towards me? Cheng Sheng thought. He shivered when he realized Fei Yin might be a pervert. "F-fine…" he answered, his voice as quiet as a mosquito.

Fei Yin turned when he heard Cheng Sheng's gloomy voice. "You should rest more." He told him. "Your face looked pale. I'll go inform shifu and founder and your shixiongs that you wake up." He said. When he saw Cheng Sheng absent-mindedly nodded, he smiled. Then, he left and closed the door tight for the cold air not to get in. He didn't see that when the door closed, Cheng Sheng's face turned ugly.

Cheng Sheng shivered as he hugged himself, rubbing his arms. "Da shixiong… what was that smile of him earlier?!" he muttered under his breath. "No way – my chrysanthemum's at stake! I have to leave!" he said and get off his bed to pack up. He untied the hammock and put it inside his qiankun pouch. Then, he took his other blanket lying on the cabinet.

The door opened and Li Tian and Feng Mo saw Cheng Sheng tidying up his things. "Cheng-shidi… so the 'awakening' they meant is you being not lazy anymore?!" they both said in pleasant surprise.

"Huh?" Cheng Sheng said and turned, only to be greeted by Li Tian and Feng Mo's hug.

"Cheng-shidi!" they both said and hugged both his arm, one for the other. "You're not lazy anymore! You now tidy your things! This really should be a celebration! Cheng-shidi isn't lazy anymore!" Li Tian said and held his chest, sighing in relief. A big smile was on his face.

"You really shouldn't slack off practicing now!" Feng Mo said, frowning but his eyes are bright. "You're stronger now! I can't wait to fight against you again - !" he said.

"Huh? What do you mean - ?" Cheng Sheng said, puzzled. He looked at them looking enthusiastic.

"Xiao Tian. Xiao Mo. Shouldn't you let him rest more?" Fan Wen said. He and Xie Lan stood by the door. Fei Yin was nowhere in sighed and Cheng Sheng sighed in relief.

"Shifu. Founder." Li Tian and Feng Mo greeted and bowed.

Cheng Sheng smiled and followed. "Shifu. Founder." He bowed. "I am completely fine now. Thank you for taking care of me." He told them.
