The Scum Is A ***

"WHAT?!" they were all startled. 

Fan Wen sighed. At this time, Pai Lie spoke. "Sect leader Xie stayed to save as many people as he could, protecting the array Cheng Sheng made so that they could continue transport the people to here in Xinfaxian." He said. 

"The array…" Sun Yi muttered as his eyes widened when he remembered something. "My elder brother – " 

"So you remembered me only just now?" a soft chuckle was heard behind Sun Yi. 

Sun Yi abruptly stood and turned to see Sun Rong. "Gege!" he cried and jumped on Sun Rong to hug him. 

Sun Rong happily laughed as he hugged his younger brother. "Wu Yuan came to me before he left." He said. 

Sun Yi gasped and he looked at his elder brother\'s face. "Did he say something? How is he?" he asked. 

"He told me he has a bad feeling, and there\'s a low chance he can come back." Sun Rong answered. Before Sun Yi could speak, he continued. "However, he would definitely come back. So, while he isn\'t around, he left you to me." He told him. 

Sun Yi\'s heart leapt before he burst into tears once again. He was indefinitely separated from his husband, and just heard his husband is in the hands of the enemy – life or death is unknown. Who could take it? 

They all sighed in sympathy. "How about the Youxiwang Sect?" Li Tian asked. "How… is it now?" 

Fan Wen shook his head. "Zhongyang is in better situation than the Xiwang." He said and looked at the Xiwang refugees setting up their tents afar. "Even though Qi Ling has everyone under his control, but there is still Jing Rui and his sect, and your founder, who are sneaking people out of Zhongyang. However, the Xiwang – " he looked at Chen Han and Sun Yi as a sigh escaped from his lips. " – Ming-shixiong took everyone by surprise and they didn\'t have time to counterattack. Only Luo-shixiong is left, and he isn\'t on par with Ming-shixiong. Thus…" he shook his head in dismay. 

They all lowered their head in dejection. They don\'t know how everything came to here. 

"I will go." Chen Han said as he rose from his seat. 

"Da shixiong…" Sun Yi cried. 

"Chen Han…" Li Tian muttered before he smiled. He also rose from his seat, including Feng Mo. He looked at Feng Mo before he turned to Fan Wen. "We\'re going, too!" he told him. 

"Ah Tian!" Chen Han exclaimed. "No. No – " he shook his head. "It\'s too dangerous. You can\'t – " 

"Can\'t I help the sect I am going to marry into?!" Li Tian snapped as he frowned at Chen Han. 

Chen Han was struck speechless. He opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out as his lips quivered because of the emotions churning in his chest. His eyes reddened and, before his tears could fall, he hugged Li Tian tight and buried his face on the crook of the other\'s neck. 

He felt very grateful for falling to Li Tian. 

Li Tian helplessly smiled as he patted Chen Han\'s back. Sun Yi and Feng Mo smiled. 

"The Cleansing Stone still hasn\'t glowed again…" Pai Lie muttered as his brows knitted while he stared at the Cleansing Stone in front of him. 

They all turned to him at the same time Pai Lie turned. 

"Where\'s Cheng Sheng?" he asked. 

They all struck frozen. 

"Where\'s your da shixiong?" Fan Wen said. "Also, Yu Sheng? Wasn\'t he with you?" he added. 

They all gaped at Pai Lie and Fan Wen before Feng Mo, who is always energetic, was the first to react. "Right! Where\'s young master Zhuo? We have something to say to him!" he said, his expression looked like that something was urgent. 

Pai Lie and Fan Wen felt suspicious, but nonetheless answered his question. "Young master Zhuo, like your founder, stayed in the Zhongyang." Fan Wen answered. 

"WHAT?!" they were all shocked. "Why?!" 

Fan Wen took a step back from their violent reaction. He frowned. "He said he wanted to stay and help. What\'s wrong?" he asked. 

However, none of them answered him as they all looked at each other. 

"Did something happen to Cheng Sheng?" Pai Lie asked, which hit a nerve. 

They all froze. "Cheng-shidi… he was stabbed by Yu Sheng." Li Tian answered. "And since da shixiong hasn\'t followed us, da shixiong must have escaped Yu Sheng\'s attack to stay behind and help Cheng-shidi." He explained. 

However, just as his voice fell, they all turned and looked at the Cleansing Stone that suddenly brightened! Their eyes widened, and they waited while staring at the Cleansing Stone, aghast. 

Who will come out and appear next?

…

"There\'s still nothing in my belly…" a beautiful woman sighed as she caressed her flat stomach.

The man smiled and hugged her. "Then, let\'s pray to the god?" 

"Good idea!" 

The scene changed where the man and woman knelt before a statue and prayed. Then, the scene changed again to the woman who was happily rubbing her big belly. She was pregnant. Then, months later… 

"All hail the Prince who is beloved by the Heaven and Earth!" it was a celebration. The baby in the arms of the queen is so beautiful, his hair was white. 

The Prince grew up very beautiful and obedient and was loved by the many, until there was a rebellion, and the king and queen were imprisoned, along with the Prince. The queen\'s identity was exposed as a prostitute, and the king is actually an adopted child by the former king and queen. The legal heir appeared and became the new King. 

"Why do you have to refuse the throne?! How useless! All those efforts of us have been a waste!" the now-former queen said and slapped the Prince who was huddled into a corner, hugging his knees. Suddenly, her eyes flashed with wickedness. "When we escape, let\'s sell him. The only good thing about him is his white hair and beautiful appearance." She suggested, and her husband nodded in agreement. They were talking as if their child isn\'t theirs. 

The Prince was shocked and used a sleeping drug he stole from someone on their way to the prison to escape from everyone. He cut his hair and dirtied his face as a disguise. He ran into a former knight guard that was kicked out due to some reasons and didn\'t tell him his real identity because of shame. The former knight guard was loyal and thought the Prince had died after the Prince\'s uncle, the legal heir, reclaimed his throne. 

The Prince was also guilty the most of his \'uncle\', thus after he confronted him in front of the public, he resigned to his fate. The former knight guard was about to save him from public execution, but he came too late. Then, the Prince\'s soul left the world.
