"You see now how stubborn he is?" Xie Lan said as he, Chen Jing and Fei Huang drank tea. Wu Yuan is with Sun Yi while Chen Han is with the Xinfaxian Sect disciples to help them train for tomorrow's competition.
"To go as far as using his own body… isn't he the sa with demonic cultivators?" Fei Huang asked. Xie Lan and Chen Jing glanced at Mu Jun who was beaten up by Fei Huang earlier. "The righteous and demonic cultivators are just the sa. The only difference is the ans they use." Fei Huang added.
"You say this to cover for your lover?" Chen Jing said.
"Isn't it obvious, senior Chen?" Xie Lan said.
"You two… you failed!" Fei Huang said. Chen Jing and Xie Lan just laughed. No matter how they changed, but they're still a teacher and his students. "You can't tell who's an ally and who's the enemy now." he said after a while.
Chen Jing and Xie Lan beca serious. Mu Jun, even if Cheng Sheng recognized him as a demonic cultivator, but Cheng Sheng also acknowledged him as an ally earlier. They trust Cheng Sheng's judgent the most… albeit he is a scum, ironically. "Do you know?" Xie Lan said. "Before the land tasted peace, it is under a different na." he said.
"What's with this new plot?" Chen Jing asked. "Why bring this up?"
"Because, during the war, the leader of the land was said to be a demonic cultivator." Xie Lan said.
"How did you know about this?" Fei Huang asked.
Xie Lan looked at him. "Shifu." He called. "Do you know the place called 'Wuran'?" he asked. "The land of the corrupted." He added.
"Junior Xie, you…" Chen Jing looked at Xie Lan in disbelief.
"I just rembered. Wen and I happened to pass by a place." Xie Lan said. "We happened to et an old person. They can't stop talking, and Wen is kind by nature, he wanted to listen to them so I was forced to hear what they said." he said.
"And that, that place is Wuran?" Chen Jing said.
Xie Lan nodded. "Yes." he said.
"You're suspecting, this lord of Wuran is leading the demonic cultivators to reclaim his land?" Chen Jing asked.
"Yes." Xie Lan answered.
"If what you're saying is true, we only had to know who this leader is." Fei Huang said.
"That's the problem." Xie Lan cut him off. "Just as we're about to ask them who was the forr owner of this land, they died." He said.
"What?! Why?" Chen Jing asked.
"They were dehydrated." Xie Lan answered. "OW!" he cried when Chen Jing and Fei Huang hit his head. "It isn't my fault!" he said as he rubbed his head. "I didn't know he had been talking non-stop before we ca. By the ti I noticed it, he's already not breathing." He explained.
"Why?!" Chen Jing said. "Why does he has to stop at that ti?! Why didn't he tell you the na of whoever it is in the first place?!" he asked.
"Because – " Xie Lan said. " – I didn't want for Wen to hear other n's na, thus I told the old person to only say the important details – OW!" he cried when Chen Jing and Fei Huang punched him.
"The important one is the na! The na!" Chen Jing hit Xie Lan again.
"You're still a jealous man… I don't understand how can Fan Wen stand you." Fei Huang said and hit Xie Lan.
"You don't need to hit for that!" Xie Lan told Fei Huang and rubbed his cheek that was blue.
"Do you still rember where this place is?" Chen Jing asked.
"Yeah." Xie Lan answered. "However, it's impossible to find it again." He told them.
"Why?"
"Because it's buried in the sand by now." Xie Lan answered. "It's a city in the desert." He added. "UGH!" he cried when the two kicked him. He fell on the pond and drowned.
"You're the one who should have been buried, instead!" Fei Huang and Chen Jing said, then sighed in exhaustion.
"Huh? Founder? What are you doing?" Lei Ling asked when they passed by the other side of the pond and saw Xie Lan floating with the koi fishes.
"Practicing how to swim with your shifu – " Xie Lan answered and turned to a fish near him.
"Who are you calling our shifu?!" Lei Ling and the others said and drowned Xie Lan. "That's a fish!"
"The Xinfaxian Sect with their usual antics." Sun Yi chuckled as he and Wu Yuan watched the Xinfaxian Sect disciples beat their founder.
"Yi… Ah Yi." Wu Yuan called and held Sun Yi's hand tight. "I missed you." He whispered as he placed his head on top of Sun Yi's head and he closed his eyes.
"I missed you, too, Yuan." Sun Yi said as he leaned on Wu Yuan's chest. Even if the other had already beco a sect leader, but they themselves won't change the way they treat each other.
Chen Han saw Sun Yi and Wu Yuan. Then, he turned and looked at Li Tian placing spells on his sword. It's one of the things Cheng Sheng taught him. "A-Ah Tian." He called and gingerly walked towards Li Tian.
"Chen-shixiong." Li Tian paused. "What is it?" he asked.
Chen Han saw the sweat beading on Li Tian's forehead and his heart softened. My sweetheart is doing his best. I should, too. He thought and clenched his fists. "C-Can I train with you?" he asked.
"A-Ah?" Li Tian blushed in surprise.
Chen Han, seeing his sweetheart's blushing face, can't help but his face reddened. "I – I want to train with Ah Tian." He said.
"Why ?!"
"I – "Chen Han felt his tongue twisting. "I want to be with Ah Tian! I – I… I want to spend ti with you." He finally said. "I – I won't bother you training! Actually, I can help you! I'll assist you. You can strike and I'll defend." He suggested.
"T-that's…" Li Tian said. He turned and saw his fellow disciples were still beating Xie Lan by the pond. Fei Yin, their reliable da shixiong, was sneaking around to see Cheng Sheng who was hidden by the three seniors. He sighed and turned to Chen Han. Then, he smiled. "Okay!" he said.
Chen Han's face lit up. "Great!" he said. "I – I can tell you so spells that I know, too – " he said as he walked beside Li Tian. "To fortify the material of your sword…" he said as he pointed so areas on Li Tian's sword and told him the spells.
"Isn't it great we helped both Li-shixiong and Chen-shixiong beco closer?" You Rou said as the four of them, including Xie Lan, hid behind the bushes and watched Li Tian and Chen Han.
"Alright. You lot, do your training, too!" Xie Lan told them and shooed them away. Lei Qing, Feng Mo, You Rou and Lei Ling imdiately left. Lei Ling taught them what talismans to use and later Lei Qing and Feng Mo would teach them how to strengthen their defense.
"Ah!" You Rou suddenly exclaid when she looked at Lei Qing's sleeves.
"What is it, shii?" Feng Mo asked.
You Rou looked at Lei Qing and Lei Qing looked at her, too. "It's ti!" they both exclaid.
"What is?" Lei Ling asked, confused.
"The surprise!" both the won answered and they imdiately took out their uniform from their qiankun pouch.
"Huh? Aren't the sleeves…" Feng Mo said.
"… longer and shorter?" Lei Ling said. The longer sleeves are for You Rou while the shorter sleeves are for Lei Qing.
"Wait. Isn't this – " Feng Mo said. " – 'that'?!"
