The Scum Is A ***

Chapter 349 - The Scum Is Apathetic



Southmost Region, Millennium Ship.

"So, what is this pit you are talking about?" Jing Kang asked.

"We do an entrapment." Zuo Zhe answered. "We will gather the demonic cultivators, both the ones chasing behind us and the ones ahead of us, in one place. Them – " he looked at them. – BOOM." He said.

When they heard the word \'boom\', one thought entered their mind: Exploding Pills!

"Wow… young master Zuo remembered the Exploding Pills of Cheng-shixiong he used in the Intersect Competition?!" Lei Ling asked as he looked at Zuo Zhe in disbelief.

Afterall, with so many things that happened lately, they have forgotten the things that occurred in the Intersect Competition, much less the Exploding Pills.

"En. It\'s very memorable." Zuo Zhe said.

"Indeed." They all nodded. Just at the mention of the name and they immediately remembered the devastating effect of the Exploding Pill.

"So, this is what we are going to use against them?" Yu Sheng asked.

Zuo Zhe nodded, then looked at the Xinfaxian Sect disciples. "How many Exploding Pills do you have?" he asked.

"I\'ll go ask You-shimei." Lei Qing said and went inside the cabin to go to You Rou.

"How do we trap them, though?" Jing Hei asked.

"We still have to use the baiting method and lure the demonic cultivators towards the designated area where we\'ll drop the Exploding Pills on them." Zuo Zhe said.

They all nodded in understanding. They have more people now, so luring the demonic cultivators will be easier than the last time they have gone \'fishing\'.

"Where shall we lead them to?" Jing Bai asked.

"How about the oasis of the Nanli Sect?" Qian Lin suggested. "Right now, there might be…" he said, then didn\'t continue.

Silence fell. They know what Qian Lin meant. Since the demonic cultivators came from the Southmost Region, and the Nanli Sect is located in the Southmost Region, then the Nanli Sect being the first to bear the brunt of the attack of the demonic cultivators is inevitable. Added to the fact that the Nanli Sect is a small sect, and is weak, then, they must all have died under the demonic cultivators\' hands. The Nanli Town must be under the demonic cultivators\' hands now.

"Let\'s do it." Jing Hei said.

"Yes." Lei Ling heavily nodded.

Although they don\'t want to destroy the home of the Nanli Sect, but their home is now inhabited by the demonic cultivators who killed them. They have to purge the demonic cultivators, who is tarnishing the Nanli Town, out of the Nanli Sect\'s home. This is the only thing they could help the Nanli Sect who are now gone.

"Who will be the baits?" Zuo Zhe asked.

"Count me." Feng Mo spoke.

They turned and saw him walking towards them together with Lei Qing and You Rou. The three of them are holding wooden boxes.

"Feng-shixiong!" Lei Ling called and went to help You Rou carry the boxes.

"Careful." You Rou spoke as they carefully placed the boxes on the table.

"The Exploding Pills?" Zheng Yi asked as he curiously looked at the topmost box on Feng Mo\'s hands.

"En." Feng Mo nodded as he placed the boxes on another table.

"How many Exploding Pills are there?" Jing Kang asked.

"Each box has thirty pieces, and there are ten boxes, so…" You Rou spoke. "There are three hundred." She answered. "If all three hundred Exploding Pills explodes, then there\'ll be nothing left of us and the Millennium Ship. Not even a speck of dust." She said.

They sucked in a cold breath.

"Then… how many Exploding Pills are needed to wipe them all out?" Jing Hei asked and nervously gulped. "And then… then, let\'s keep the remaining Exploding Pills back to where they are kept, okay?" he asked.

"I don\'t know how many will we need." Zuo Zhe answered. He suddenly paused. Then, he slowly looked behind them.

Yu Sheng, as if realized Zuo Zhe\'s idea, also turned. Then, he smiled. "How about we test one for us to see?" he asked.

"… huh?" they all were dumbfounded.

Yu Sheng opened a box and coated an Exploding Pill with his qi so it won\'t explode. "Buckle up." He said.

Before they all could react, they saw the Exploding Pill shot towards the demonic cultivators behind them. Not long later and they heard a deafening roar. BOOOOM!!!

"AAAAAHH!!!" they all screamed when the ship rocked because of the violent tremors in the air when the Exploding Pill explode.

"Oh." Zuo Zhe and Yu Sheng muttered. Their expression deadpan.

Everyone who fell on the floor raised their head and expressionlessly looked at the two who are watching the giant cloud of smoke behind the Millennium Ship. If not for the barriers protecting the Millennium Ship, the back of the Millennium Ship must have wrecked because of the impact of the Exploding Pill.

Zuo Zhe slowly turned and looked at the Exploding Pills seated on the fabric inside the box. "Maybe we\'ll only need one…" he said and very carefully closed the lid of the box.

Everyone. "…" they looked at each other and saw their clothes were disheveled.

They all turned to look and their jaw dropped when they saw that the top of the mountain was gone, and instead, a crater was formed. "Yeah… we might only need one." They agreed. They didn\'t see even just a torn piece of fabric of the demonic cultivators.

You Rou was right. Not a bone or ash would be left of you after you are hit by the Exploding Pill.

"Oh, right." Zuo Zhe spoke. "Since the people who were going to lure the demonic cultivators needed to ensure that the demonic cultivators would be on the designated area, and we are racing against time, then when while they are escaping, they have to prepare to be hit by the Exploding Pill we are going to drop from above." He said. "We have to prepare for the worst-case scenario." He told them.

They froze. They looked at the boxes of Exploding Pills on top of the table, then to the crater on top of the mountain. "…" fck. Is it too late to back out? I don\'t want to die yet!

Yu Sheng saw their expressions and he laughed. "This isn\'t that grave." He said. "At the most, you\'ll just lose a limb or two." He told them with a smile.

"…" their faces were covered with black lines. Don\'t say such a horrifying sentence with a smile! We don\'t want to lose a limb, too! They thought as they complained in their heart.

"Yu Sheng." Zuo Zhe called.

"Alright, alright. I\'ll stop teasing them." Yu Sheng said and chuckled.

"…" so that is \'teasing\' for him? They blankly looked at Yu Sheng and Zuo Zhe.

"I can teleport you back to the ship after you have lured them." Zuo Zhe said.

They all immediately sighed in relief.

"Why don\'t you teleport the demonic cultivators to the designated area, then?" Jing Bai asked.

"They are too sparse." Zuo Zhe answered. "Furthermore, if I really did teleport one or two of them, or a group of them, the other demonic cultivators would notice. Then, they would escape." He explained.

Jing Bai nodded in understanding. "That\'s right." He said.

"This is also taxing in qi." Jing Kang added.

"Right." Jing Bai sighed. "How about we flew on our own?" he asked, concerned.

The others also realized it and nodded in agreement to Jing Bai\'s suggestion.

"That\'s right. We can fly fast. Young master Zuo have helped us too much. We don\'t want to inconvenience you more." Jing Hei said.

Zuo Zhe shrugged. "Suit yourselves." He said and resumed eating melon seeds.

Everyone. "…" damn it. Can\'t you insist? Even just acting like you want to insist? Comfort us who finally decided to risk our life, damn it! They thought.

"Hahahaha." Yu Sheng laughed. He already knows Zuo Zhe\'s personality. Since no one wanted to bother him, then he won\'t insist. That\'s one less work for him.

"It\'s decided, then." Zuo Zhe spoke as he apathetically looked at their dark expressions. "You lure the demonic cultivators to the designated area, then we drop the Exploding Pill from the sky." He said. "Is this clear?" he asked.

"… yes." They begrudgingly answered.

"Good." Zuo Zhe nodded, satisfied. He nibbled on a melon seed. "So, who wanted to be a bait?" he asked.

Them who doesn\'t want to. "…" do we have a choice? They looked at each other.

"I\'m in." Yu Sheng spoke.

"Me, too." Feng Mo said.

"Me." Jing Hei raised his hand.

"Count me in." Jing Bai spoke.

"Me, too – " Jing Kang spoke when Zuo Zhe cut him off.

"You stay." Zuo Zhe looked at Jing Kang. "You make amulets for them to protect them. Lei Ling." He called and looked at Lei Ling.

"Yes!" Lei Ling answered.

"Reproduce the Communicating Talisman." Zuo Zhe said.

"Yes!" Lei Ling answered, his eyes bright.

"Then, let\'s roll!" Zuo Zhe said. "Let\'s go to the Nanli Town."
