BXBX NOVEL Chapter 50 - The Scum Is Abnormal
Fei Yin ignored Xi Ling as he walked towards the central courtyard. "Sheng." He called as he looked around. Then, he took out the vial with a cloud inside. He took out the cloud and followed it. The cloud suddenly flew to the heart of the courtyard and stopped. Fei Yin stopped before the cloud. He looked at the ground beneath the cloud. "Sheng." He called as he knelt down the ground, doesn\'t care if his clothes will be dirtied. He raised his hand. The body in Xi Ling\'s arms floated and flew towards Fei Yin. Then, Fei Yin slowly put the body on the ground. "Sheng." He called. "Wake up. Move." He said.
Xi Ling stared at Fei Yin with wide eyes, didn\'t know what is happening. Cheng Sheng opened his heavy eyelids. He heard a voice calling him. Who - ? he thought. He felt like he heard the voice multiple times, but using different voices. Why? Why is he using different voices? But, no matter, the manner of calling his name remained gentle and affectionate. He willed his soul to move. He still hasn\'t left this world. He looked for an empty body and found Chen Sheng\'s body. He immediately went back.
Fei Yin\'s eyes narrowed when he saw the body\'s face regained some color. "Sheng…" he called. His voice had a hint of obsession in it. He immediately pressed down his instinct and lifted Cheng Sheng. "I should\'ve known you\'d play these tricks." He said, his voice cold as he turned to Xi Ling.
"Huh?" Xi Ling said, puzzled. Then, he saw Fei Yin isn\'t looking at him but behind him. He turned and saw Fei Huang. "Sect leader – " he called and immediately got up from the ground.
"I am appraising his soul." Fei Huang calmly told Fei Yin.
"You hurt him." Fei Yin retorted, anger in his voice.
"He isn\'t the owner of that body." Fei Huang said.
"I don\'t care." Fei Yin said as he carried Cheng Sheng in his arms. He\'s going back to the Xinfaxian Sect. Cheng Sheng will only be safe in Xinfaxian Sect.
"You\'re leaving again?" Fei Huang asked.
"Xinfaxian is my home." Fei Yin told Fei Huang as he walked away.
"You won\'t ask what\'s in his soul?" Fei Huang asked.
"I won\'t permit any of you harming him." Fei Yin said.
"His soul is too strong." Fei Huang said. Fei Yin stopped before the threshold. "I think his soul will be used for refinement, but they can never use it. His soul is too strong to be refined. Even the body he occupies now will become weaker since it suppresses the soul\'s power." He said. "That man that helped him might have known about his soul. He helped him gain a golden core to suppress the soul a little longer." He looked at Fei Yin. "His soul is like a dish. Anyone will come after it. And those around him will only be harmed. Are you willing to stay by his side?" he asked.
"I will always stay by his side. I will never leave him. Where he is, I will always be there." Fei Yin answered and crossed the threshold, leaving.
Xi Ling dumbfounded stared at the uncle and nephew. "What… sect leader, what just happened?" he asked and looked at Fei Huang.
"Yin-er deceived us." Fei Huang said. "Yin-er knows the soul inside the body of Chen Sheng changed." he said.
Xi Ling gaped. "What?!" he said and looked at the direction Fei Yin left. "Why would he hide it?" he asked.
"The reason why he left." Fei Huang said. "He wanted to protect him." He answered.
Xi Ling fell silent. For someone to leave the Fei Clan, and the main family at that… he shook his head. "The soul has changed. Why did he stay with him?" he asked.
"Maybe – " Fei Huang said. " – his desire to protect became stronger knowing that the soul changed." He answered.
Xi Ling fell silent. "So, second young master knows the man?" he asked, referring to the mysterious man.
Fei Huang shook his head. "I don\'t know." He answered. "But, maybe, feeling that the man also wanted to protect Cheng Sheng… Yin-er went along with him." He explained.
"What about these strange corpses, then?" Xi Ling asked. "Does this have something to do with Cheng Sheng?" he asked.
"If it does, what will you do?" Fei Huang asked. "Set your worries. This is our fight against the demonic cultivators. Cheng Sheng… he has nothing to do with this." He told Xi Ling and went back inside.
Xi Ling watched him walk away. "Sect leader, there\'s one more thing – " he said as he ran after Fei Huang.
Fei Huang stopped and turned to him. "What is it?" he asked.
"About the Spirit Awakening Meth – " Xi Ling said, but he felt his mouth suddenly can\'t move. He looked at Fei Huang, wide-eyed.
"Never mention that forbidden cultivation method." Fei Huang said. Xi Ling nodded. Fei Huang released him. "The Spirit Awakening Method is a special cultivation method. It benefits, but also can make your life at risk." He looked at Xi Ling.
Xi Ling nodded. "Senior Ming and my elder brother said that they didn\'t see Cheng Sheng\'s qi." He said and looked at Fei Huang. "Is this because of the Spirit Awakening Method?" he asked.
Fei Huang\'s brows knit. "That\'s impossible." He said. "It\'s the opposite. Your body will be full of qi if you lived – " he said, then froze.
"Sect leader?" Xi Ling called, puzzled.
"This can\'t be…" Fei Huang said and looked at the direction where Fei Yin left with Cheng Sheng.
"What is it?" Xi Ling asked.
Fei Huang looked at him. "If Chen Sheng\'s body was possessed, then there will be two souls fighting for it." he said.
Xi Ling nodded. "Yes." He said. "If the original soul is stronger, he can kick out the foreign soul in his body. But, if the foreign soul is stronger – " he said. " – the foreign soul will slowly integrate with the original soul until he completely merges with him and finally replace the original one. It is the Full Possession."
"Then – " Fei Huang said. " – what is Cheng Sheng?" he asked.
"What?"
"Xie Lan and Ming Ye said that they hadn\'t seen Cheng Sheng\'s qi." Fei Huang said as he walked. "Cheng Sheng clearly possessed Chen Sheng\'s body. Now, Cheng Sheng is the one occupying Chen Sheng\'s body, and there is no trace of Chen Sheng\'s body." He looked at Xi Ling. "If Cheng Sheng fully possessed Chen Sheng\'s body, there would be remnants of Chen Sheng\'s qi in Cheng Sheng\'s soul since Full Possession is integration of the souls. So – " he stopped. " – why can\'t they see the qi of Cheng Sheng\'s soul? More precisely – " he turned to Xi Ling. " – they can\'t see Cheng Sheng\'s soul?"
Xi Ling gasped. "Sect leader, then what is…" he said, confused.
"Instead of kicking out the foreign soul, Chen Sheng, his soul was kicked out by Cheng Sheng instead." Fei Huang said. "Then, Cheng Sheng occupied the body. But – " his eyes narrowed. " – his soul\'s qi can\'t be seen. And – " he put his fingers on his chin. " – earlier, I clearly see the body\'s spiritual veins flowing with qi." He said.
"Isn\'t this normal, sect leader?" Xi Ling asked.
"Towards Cheng Sheng – " Fei Huang said. " – this isn\'t normal. Since – " he looked at the mountains afar. " – his soul is abnormal."
