The Scum Is A ***

"Fan-shidi said that Xie-shidi foreseen the Xinfaxian in danger." Wu Fan said. "The Xinfaxian is a small land. If Xie-shidi wouldn\'t have been there and left…" he said and sighed.

There was a silence. The Xinfaxian sect disciples\' expression is gloomy, but also relieved. They had never been glad than now that Fan Wen and Xie Lan stayed in Xinfaxian instead of coming to Xiwang. Or, maybe Xie Lan had already seen this happening before they could have left the Xinfaxian.

"My parents – " Feng Mo said, then pursed his lips. He only goes home twice a year to his family even if his family is located in Xinfaxian.

Wu Fan shook his head. "I don\'t know." He said. "Fan-shidi never mentioned their situation." He sighed. Even he is worried. The Xinfaxian was suddenly attacked by strange corpses. That\'s all they knew. However, Xie Lan is in Immortal Stage and Fan Wen is in Nascent Soul Stage. Their disciples, even though small, were all in Foundation Establishment Stage. They can handle a walking corpse or two.

But, they are strange corpses. The strange corpses are more powerful than the walking corpses. Xie Lan and Fan Wen could handle them. However, they sent a letter… Wu Fan looked at Luo Shi and Ming Ye. Then, his eyes fell on Chen Jing. Chen Jing noticed his stare and he looked at him. His face went serious.

Wu Fan turned to the Xinfaxian sect disciples. "For now, you should rest as we\'ll make some arrangements." He told them. "We\'ll send you back to the Xinfaxian tomorrow." He said.

The Xinfaxian sect disciples nodded, then bowed. "Many thanks, sect leader Wu." They said.

Wu Fan\'s expression eased. His eyes became gentle. He hummed in response. Then, he turned to Wu Yuan, Chen Han and Sun Yi to take the Xinfaxian sect disciples and leave as they, the elders, discuss.

"Yuan." Sun Yi called Wu Yuan while they follow behind Chen Han and the Xinfaxian sect disciples. "What did sect leader Wu tell you?" he directly asked.

Wu Yuan\'s feet stopped. He looked at Sun Yi. "The letter is authentic." Wu Yuan answered.

Sun Yi\'s expression changed. "Then, why – " he said and lowered his head. He felt there\'s something off with the elders earlier.

Wu Yuan stared at Sun Yi. "Father, shifu and shishu think that the attack in Xinfaxian was orchestrated." He said.

Sun Yi\'s eyes went wide. "What – " he said.

Wu Yuan nodded. "Sect leader Xie and elder Fan didn\'t elaborate their situation." He said. "Father thinks that sect leader Xie and elder Fan are in danger." He told him.

Sun Yi\'s face became pale. He turned to Chen Han who\'s talking with the Xinfaxian sect disciples, easing their worries. He and Wu Yuan had only met the Xinfaxian sect disciples, but they envy their closeness. The Youxiwang Sect is the second more prominent sect in the continent. They, the disciples of the sect, needed to be role models. However, Chen Han is Cheng Sheng\'s brother. Sun Yi envies Chen Han\'s closeness to the Xinfaxian sect disciples. Even if the Xinfaxian Sect is a small sect, but their bond is envious.

However, Sun Yi didn\'t take this envy to his heart. He looked at Wu Yuan. "What do you think will the elders do?" he asked. "The Xinfaxian sect disciples will return tomorrow. They will be in danger more." He said, worried.

"But, the Xinfaxian sect disciples will worry more if they won\'t return." Wu Yuan said. "Even if they will be in danger, but, I think, the Xinfaxian sect disciples would rather choose to die than leave their sect behind." He said.

Sun Yi fell silent. If he\'d be in the same situation as them, he\'d also choose the same decision.

"We were attacked. Now, it\'s the Xinfaxian." Wu Fan said, his expression is ugly. He waved his sleeves. "I don\'t know what\'s the situation in Shanliang, Zhunjing and Nanxu." He said, referring to the three other prominent sects.

"If we inquire about their situation, they would think we have a hidden agenda." Luo Shi said and sighed. He shrugged. As prominent sects, of course, there is a competition between them. Their relationship on the surface is polite. However, the truth is, it\'s rocky.

"Do you think this action is deliberate?" Ming Ye asked, referring to the attacks. "What is their purpose, though? Even the Xinfaxian Sect was attacked." His brows knit. "Why would they notice the Xinfaxian Sect?" he asked, puzzled.

"We\'re not trying to hide it, but we also don\'t expose it either. Sheng-er is our family." Chen Jing said. "Who knows it will know it. Maybe they found out about this and thus attacked the Xinfaxian Sect." he sighed and held his forehead.

"So their target is the Youxiwang Sect?" Ming Ye asked.

"But, disciple Fei Yin is the second young master of the Shanliangde Sect." Luo Shi said. This matter is also not a secret.

"So – " Ming Ye turned to Luo Shi. " – they will attack the Shanliang next?" he asked.

There was a silence. Wu Fan sighed. "No matter what, this is the work of a demonic cultivator." He said. "They bully the weak and fear the strong." He frowned. "We were lucky Sheng-er is here. Xie-shidi must have also foreseen this." He said, his expression became gentle. "Ming-xiong. Luo-xiong. You go with the Xinfaxian sect disciples. Take Yuan-er, Yi-er and Han-er with you." He told them. "Now that the Xinfaxian was attacked, the enemy must also know that the four core disciples of the Xinfaxian Sect are in our hands. They will wait for them to go back and attack them. The safety of the four of them lies in our hands." He explained.

"I\'ll go with them – " Chen Jing said.

Wu Fan frowned and didn\'t answer. "No!" Ming Ye and Luo Shi said. Wu Fan and Chen Jing looked at them.

Luo Shi cleared his throat while Ming Ye smiled. "Chen-xiong. Ming-xiong and I will leave the sect leader\'s side. Who will support him?" Luo Shi asked. "Also, there must still be enemies lurking around the Xiwang, eyeing the sect. It is only the Chen and Wu families the sect leader could count on." He explained. Because of the Chen and Wu Clans, the Youxiwang Sect became the second prominent sect.

Wu Fan\'s brows just raised. He didn\'t refute nor agree. Ming Ye smiled. "This settles it." he said before the two could react. "Luo-xiong and I will go with Yuan-er, Yi-er and Han-er to escort the Xinfaxian sect disciples back to the Xinfaxian. Chen-xiong should accompany Wu-xiong." He said, then paused. "To settle the matters of the sect in case a problem appears." He added.

Chen Jing looked at Wu Fan before turning to Ming Ye and Luo Shi. "Alright." He answered. "I\'ll leave Han-er and Sheng-er\'s safety to you." He said and bowed as he uttered thanks.

Ming Ye and Luo Shi nodded. "Then, we\'ll go and inform them to prepare for travel tomorrow." Luo Shi said as he and Ming Ye bowed. "We\'ll be taking our leave." He said. He and Ming Ye immediately left. "Yeah!" he and Ming Ye whispered to each other as they secretly clapped their hands when they were out of sight of Wu Fan and Chen Jing.

When Ming Ye and Luo Shi met with the Xinfaxian sect disciples, they didn\'t hide anything. "So – " Luo Shi said, his expression back to being stern. " – we shouldn\'t stop until we reach the Xinfaxian. Or else the enemy will reach you and kill you." He said, not mincing his words. It\'s better for them to be aware of the danger they were in right now.

"We should conceal of our travel as much as possible." Ming Ye said.

"How do we do that?" Feng Mo asked. It\'s not as if they can\'t use Concealment Talisman. However, using it is taxing. Using it and they will use their power. They wouldn\'t have any strength left if they will fight against the enemies once they reach the Xinfaxian.

"I have an idea." Cheng Sheng suddenly spoke.
