The Scum Is A Chapter 421

"Why aren't we telling them that you've woke up?" Jing Kang asked Cheng Sheng before Cheng Sheng started refining.
Fei Yin has been moved inside the cabin, on his and Cheng Sheng's bed while You Rou can finally rest and get some sleep after Cheng Sheng took over the place.
"Are you thinking that if they know I've woke up, it'll raise their morale?" Cheng Sheng asked.
"Yes." Jing Kang honestly answered.
"You're not wrong." Cheng Sheng said. "But, you're not right, either." He told him as he threw the herbs.
"Where am I wrong?" Jing Kang asked.
"On the time to break the news." Cheng Sheng answered and raised his head to look at Jing Kang. "Everything has a right time to do, to happen. Currently, the battle is reaching the critical stage. No one can bear to have a moment of inattention, be it Wu Ran, or our side. That is why it dragged on until now." He explained, then paused. He carefully studied Jing Kang's expression. "Even if it is good news, but its effect can be bad. It depends on the situation. I woke up, and that is good news. But, if they'll get distracted because of it, then it'll be bad… no. The worst." He sighed.
Jing Kang stared at Cheng Sheng for a long time. "What if we'll tell a few people first?" he asked.
"What if they can't control their mouths?" Cheng Sheng asked back. "If not their mouths, then their expressions?" he said as he mixed the decoction. "Emotions are one of the things that is difficult to hide, next to the truth, and then…"
Jing Kang cut off his sermon. "If you are telling the truth, then you are really good at hiding your emotions." he told him before he left to go to Lei Ling who was smiling brightly. He paused, then sighed and turned to Cheng Sheng who was refining the medicine with a lowered head. "It just shows how deep your emotions are and that you need to hide it in order for others not to see your pain and reopen your words." He told him before he approached Lei Ling.
Cheng Sheng opened his eyes and stared at the decoction that is a failure. "Ah…" he muttered before he poured it out. "If you say it like that, then I'm really not good at all in hiding it." he muttered before he glanced at the cabin. Then, he took a deep breath before he started refining again.

Even if he hid it, but Jing Kang still saw it. Wait… was it he's bad at hiding it, or that Jing Kang is just too sharp to be able to notice it? Ai… forget it. He'll continue like this and see if others could also see it, or that he can deceive them, too, like Lei Ling and You Rou.
Meanwhile, with the arrival of new medicines, the faces of the righteous cultivators brightened. Qian Tian immediately consumed some before he rejoined the battle, sending a secret signal to Zheng Fu Gong, Jing Rui, Xie Lan and Chen Jing.
Jing Rui was the first one to withdraw, and Fei Lin replaced him. "Uncle!" he heard Jing Cheng called followed by Jing Bai, Zheng Yi. Then, they all went to the safe area where Fan Wen and Ho Yue are.
"Uncle. Here." Jing Hei said and gave the magic pills to Jing Rui while Jing Cheng and Jing Bai tended to his wounds.
Fan Wen stared at the bottle of ointment smeared by Jing Cheng on Jing Rui's wounds before Jing Bai wrapped it with a bandage.
"This was dropped from the sky." Jing Cheng spoke when he saw Fan Wen was looking at the medicine. "You-shimei is very diligent." He praised her.
But, Fan Wen's expression is indifferent. "Oh." He muttered while his expression still looks baffled. This bottle is very familiar… he thought as he suspiciously looked at the bottle.
Jing Cheng saw Fan Wen's burning gaze on the bottle. "… does elder Fan want some?" he asked.
But, Feng Mo and Lei Qing arrived. "Shifu!" they called. "We've got the ointments and magic pills from shimei!" they said and raised the qiankun pouches which looked very, very familiar. "Come! Sit!" they said and took out a chair from their qiankun pouch.
The Zunjingde Sect, Zheng Yi, Qian Lin and Ho Yue. "…" how envious… they thought as they looked at the chair where the still baffled Fan Wen sat and Feng Mo and Lei Qing began to treat his wounds.
Ho Yue also have wounds, but they are just small ones. He is Chen Jing's replacement, but since Chen Jing is one of the major forces with Zheng Fu Gong and Xie Lan, Ho Yue rarely replaced him.
"Shifu." Gong Xian called from behind him. He raised a qiankun pouch similar to the ones he has seen the others brought.

Ho Yue helplessly smiled and let Gong Xian heal him. Xi Ling replaced Xie Lan and Feng Mo and Lei Qing immediately turned to heal him.
"Huh?" Xie Lan muttered when he recognized the qiankun pouches. Aren't these…? He thought and suddenly winced in pain.
"Ah? Founder, did I press your wound too hard?" Feng Mo asked and immediately made his hand lighter.
"… en." Xie Lan answered while he glanced at Fan Wen who pinched him. He saw Fan Wen's glaring at him with a warning look. Being husbands with Fan Wen for more than half a century, immediately understood what he's meaning to tell him.
Cheng Sheng has woken up, and he doesn't want them to know. But why? He thought, but seeing Fan Wen shook his head, then glanced at their disciples before he glanced at the battle ongoing, Xie Lan understood.
The one who Cheng Sheng doesn't really want to know he has woken up isn't them, but Wu Ran. As to why, it's because Cheng Sheng has a lower cultivation now and could barely protect himself. It is really fortunate Cheng Sheng could still be able to refine medicine with his remaining qi. If Wu Ran were to know that he is alive, he would definitely aim for Cheng Sheng rather than finish them off because Cheng Sheng has disrupted his plans many times.
Fortunately, Feng Mo and Lei Qing still hasn't noticed the familiar qiankun pouches. Xie Lan and Fan Wen secretly sighed in relief before they rejoined the battle while Chen Jing and Zheng Fu Gong retreated. After that, Ho Yue joined the battle with Jing Rui while Wu Fan and Xi Ling retreated. Then, Zheng Fu Gong returned and Fei Lin retreated. Then, Ho Yue retreated while Xie Lan joined the battle again.
Millennium Ship.
Cheng Sheng wanted to smile. He knows with how smart Xie Lan and Fan Wen are, added to the fact that they raised him, they would definitely recognize his qiankun pouches. Xie Lan and Fan Wen are always keen in details, while Feng Mo and Lei Qing aren't. If Li Tian saw the qiankun pouches and the medicine bottles, he would also know that he has woken up. Meanwhile, Feng Mo and Lei Qing have always been rash so it is reasonable for them to miss this point.
But he can't. He can't feel any happiness at the moment, even knowing that the tides of the battle have turned after he provided everyone with medicine. You Rou can also finally rest. He can't feel happy, nor he can even feel sadness.
He suddenly felt a big hollow in his heart. He glanced at the side and saw an empty chair. He thinks that there should be someone sitting there, but he isn't sure since he doesn't remember who should it be. He also doesn't know why, but he felt that his soul was drifting for a very, very long time. Then, suddenly, it was called back. And that's how he woke up.
It wasn't just Fei Yin. He feels that there is someone he should remember. But, who is it? He felt that it was the one who called him back to this world to be reunited with his friends. Yet, he can't remember who. Was he also his friend? But, why can't he remember him? Who was he? And… why doesn't he see him?
He looked around before his gaze fell on the battleground. Was he there, the one who called him back? Yet, why does he feel that isn't the case? And he even feels dread? Because he has forgotten him? But, why should he forget him?
Cheng Sheng felt baffled. Since he can't find an answer, he called Lei Ling who was nearest to him. "Shidi." He saw him chatting happily with Jing Kang. How enviable… he thought before he shook his head.
"Shixiong!" Lei Ling called and immediately hurried to him. "Is something the matter?" he asked.
"En." Cheng Sheng nodded, then turned. "Do you know who was sitting there?" he asked as he looked at the chair.
"Hm?" Lei Ling turned to look. "Was there anyone…?" he muttered as he tilted his head to the side, looking confused.
He can't remember.
