Intersect Competition, third stage, second day.
After all, they had watched Sun Yi and Cheng Sheng fought so the Shanliangde Sect is still wary of Sun Yi despite they admired his appearance. Sun Yi always wanted to see interesting things.
"Second young master Sun…" Xi Ming called as they left the canyon. If they won't find a better place, they will come back to the canyon. After all, the canyon is also a good place. "About you and Cheng Sheng…" he said.
Sun Yi knew the Alliance's disciple must have shown it to the Shanliangde Sect's disciples. "You don't like me? It's fine." He said. He has always been straightforward. He isn't afraid of offending people. "It's true, anyway. I like interesting and lively things!" he said and smiled.
"But…" Xi Ming said.
"Jie Mei will die, anyway." Sun Yi said. "Do you think we can protect her forever? Remember, we're staying here for seven days. The qi of this realm is limited for us to meditate." He told them. "Sooner than later, we'll still have to forsook her to save our friends. She's a stranger to us. Whoever's with us, we'll still forsook as long as we save our friends." He explained.
They stared at Sun Yi in awe. They misjudged him. He isn't a bad person. He is just forceful in his ways.
"Also – " Sun Yi said and sighed. " – my Yuan is a boring person, and I like fun things. Thus, I'm looking for it1 from other people." He added.
"…" their face was covered in dark lines. Do you really have to say this? They thought. Wu Yuan is his husband, and the sect leader of the Youxiwang Sect.
Outside the secret realm, everyone heard what Sun Yi said and they looked at Wu Yuan. Will this lead to divorce? They thought. However, they didn't see Wu Yuan frowned nor got mad. Instead… his eyes looked like they are shining? What's with this seemingly doting gaze? They thought as they stared at Wu Yuan who was staring at Sun Yi who was being projected by the Cleansing Stone.
"Sect leader Wu is too doting of Sun Yi." The audience said.
"This is true love!" someone said.
No… Zuo Zhe thought, his face is covered in black lines. That's just him thinking of ways how to punish Sun Yi when the third stage is over. He thought. Wu Yuan and Sun Yi are the only homosexual people he wrote in The Tales of the Cultivation World. This is to declare that there's nothing wrong of homosexual love. He is relieved, and very happy Wu Yuan and Sun Yi are still together in this world.
Don't look at Wu Yuan's abstinent appearance. He's very wild in bed. And don't look at Sun Yi's daring appearance. He's very submissive to Wu Yuan in bed. Zuo Zhe thinks, the two must have done the 108 sex positions of homosexuals.
Inside the secret realm, Sun Yi allied with the Shanliangde Sect. The other groups have seen this, too, especially Cheng Sheng's group and Chen Han's group.
"Sun-shidi…" Chen Han bit his lip.
The Alliance's disciple, after showing the Cleansing Stone to Chen Han's group, he immediately traveled to Cheng Sheng's group, completely missing to see Chen Han and the others giggling.
On the Huakai Sect's side, Tang Zhe was surprised at first before he smiled. "It's reasonable for Sun Yi to ally with them. After all, he came from Shanliang." He said.
On the Zunjingde Sect's side, Jing Cheng and the others thought the same thing as Tang Ze. Then, there's Kang Ce's group.
"Keh!" Kang Ce snickered. "Only the weak gathers as a group. The strong doesn't need any allies!" he said as he turned his back on the corpses of the two rogue cultivators.
At dawn, they were attacked by the walking corpses. The number is too many and he pulled one of them to block the walking corpse. The rogue cultivator had his neck bitten and he died. Meanwhile, the other rogue cultivators stared at Kang Ce in shock. They finished the walking corpses first before they fought with each other.
"Tch!" Kang Ce took out a magic pill and his wounds healed. He saw his rank increased as well as his score. Then, he saw the names of the three disciples who separated from them first. Their names became black, indicating they are dead.
In his team, only he is left.
"Shixiong…" Xiao Le muttered when he saw Kang Ce's name is the only one left in his team. Then, he saw that the fifth team has only four members left.
"Xiao Le, let's go." Li Tian called. Feng Mo was walking beside him.
"Hey, move." Yu Sheng told Xiao Le and he pushed him forward.
"Y-yes!" Xiao Le answered and immediately moved his feet. "Huh?" he said when he saw the Alliance disciple returned. "You're so fast." He said.
"…" The Alliance disciple didn't answer and just showed them the Cleansing Stone that projected Cheng Sheng's group. No… it should only be Wu Xi.
When the Alliance disciple arrived in Cheng Sheng's group, he only saw Wu Xi above the tree. Fei Yin and Cheng Sheng are still inside the tent, sleeping. And, Wu Xi is also still asleep. He knocked on the tree to call Wu Xi to show him the update in the other groups.
Wu Xi woke up and then jumped down the tree. He watched the Cleansing Stone, but showed no reaction. Then, he came back up the tree and continued sleeping.
"…" the Alliance disciple. He looked at the tent in the ground and approached it, only to see a 'please do not disturb sign, or you'll be killed' sign hanging outside the tent. "…" he decided to go back to Chen Han's group. This group is not only scary, but also lazy to death! The other groups already started at dawn, yet the sun's already up and this group are still deep asleep!
"…" Chen Han, Li Tian, Feng Mo and Yu Sheng stared blankly at Cheng Sheng's group.
"Wow… Cheng-shixiong must be so tired last night after laying arrays he's still asleep right now!" Xiao Le, who's a brainless fan of Cheng Sheng like Lei Ling and You Rou, looked at Cheng Sheng's group in awe.
"…" Chen Han, Li Tian, Feng Mo, Yu Sheng and the Alliance's disciple stared blankly at Xiao Le. We have no choice but to accept this obvious excuse.
Outside the secret realm, the sect leaders looked at Xie Lan. "…" they feel speechless. They're not dumb to believe Xiao Le's words. The other teams are already hunting the walking corpses yet Cheng Sheng's group is still hunting the god of sleep? They thought. They had never seen such a lazy group before!
However, the audience thought otherwise. "Aia~ Cheng Sheng really must have been exhausted. Look, he's still asleep!" they said and looked at Cheng Sheng's group in pity.
"Cheng-shixiong is so hardworking!" You Rou exclaimed.
"Cheng-shixiong!" Lei Ling cried.
"…" somehow, I suddenly feel ashamed. Lei Qing thought as she glanced at Zuo Zhe whose face was covered in dark lines. Somehow… I feel guilty. She thought.
Zuo Zhe looked at Cheng Sheng sprawled on the quilt and was snoring. Meanwhile, Fei Yin was actually already awake and was just staring at Cheng Sheng's sleeping face. For two hours. God… what happened to my straight as a pencil protagonist?! He screamed in his mind. Ah. Damn. He's1 also a transmigrator, I forgot. QAQ
Inside the secret realm, Fei Yin started to cook their breakfast when he saw Cheng Sheng's about to wake up. "Good morning." He greeted Wu Xi who was sleeping above the tree when he went out of the tent. Then, he threw his sword when he saw there are walking corpses in the distance. The sword freely danced in the air before it killed the walking corpses. Fei Yin doesn't want Cheng Sheng's sleep to be disturbed.
Wu Xi ignored the walking corpses and just let Fei Yin's sword kill them. He jumped down the tree and started the fire while Fei Yin prepared the ingredients. After an hour and Cheng Sheng walked out of the tent, yawning and barefooted, then saw the breakfast was ready.
Fei Yin saw Cheng Sheng's appearance and, as usual, made Cheng Sheng wore his outer robe and shoes. He then took out a wet towel and gently wiped Cheng Sheng's face before he took out a comb and neatly fixed Cheng Sheng's hair. Cheng Sheng's elegant appearance returned!
Wu Xi saw everything but he ignored it. The Alliance's disciple who decided to go back after guessing Fei Yin and Cheng Sheng's wake up time. "…" he saw everything.
Outside the secret realm, everyone saw it as well. "…" such dedication! They all thought as they cast an admiring gaze to Fei Yin who was now serving Cheng Sheng his breakfast while Wu Xi just took his own food.
"…" the sect leaders looked at Xie Lan before they turned to Fei Huang. Sect leader Fei, is it alright for your second nephew to be reduced to Cheng Sheng's manservant?!
