Chapter 236 - The Scum Is Doting

Sun Yi's smile is as bright as the sun. Feng Mo was frowning as he snorted while Li Tian's smile is awkward as he stepped towards Chen Han's side when they saw the others' dark face as is glaring at them.

Well, it was actually just Kang Ce, who has the worst expression, and the Zunjingde Sect who looked annoyed towards their group, as usual. The Shanliangde Sect is calm, likewise with Jing Kang and Qian Lin. The Huakai Sect are confused, while Wu Xi remained silent, as usual. Everyone is already familiar with the 'tricks' of Cheng Sheng's group.

Earlier, when the Huakai Sect together with Chen Han, Li Tian and Wu Xi, who has been forgotten by everyone (and the author) all this time and just silently killing the gigantic insects together with Chen Han, Tang Zhe and Shan Lu, and descended with them to the abyss, arrived and met with the Zunjingde Sect in the bottom of the abyss, Chen Han, Tang Zhe and Shan Lu immediately gave Li Tian, Tang Yun and Guo Cheng qi, respectively. Wu Xi, who handed them his own potions and magic pills, was finally noticed by their group.

Chen Han and the Huakai Sect. "…" damn. When was he there?! Was he there all this time?! 

Chen Han coughed to relieve the awkwardness. "Thank you, Wu Xi. Our group is richer in resources than the other group because of Ah Sheng, so you give your magic pills and potions to the Huakai Sect." he told Wu Xi. 

Wu Xi nodded and walked towards the Huakai Sect's side. Since he was with their group earlier, he gave them more than the amount he intended to give earlier to express his gratitude. 

The Zunjingde Sect with Qian Lin, and the other group on the other side of the wall, didn't speak since they know that the situation is critical thus they don't want to disturb Chen Han and the Huakai Sect in treating Li Tian, Tang Yun and Guo Cheng. 

It was a while later when the color on the three's faces returned that they finally spoke. "Who are currently present?" Chen Han asked Jing Cheng. 

"Us three and Qian Lin. The others are in the other side of the wall – " Jing Cheng answered. " – Jing Kang, the Shanliangde Sect, Sun Yi, Feng Mo and Kang Ce." He said and pointed the wall. 

"Chen-shixiong!" Feng Mo called. 

"Da shixiong~!" Sun Yi also called, but with a hint of smile in his voice. 

Chen Han sighed in relief. "Are you fine?" he asked them. 

"En~" Sun Yi answered. 

"Chen-shixiong, have you seen Cheng-shidi and our da shixiong?" Feng Mo asked, naming the two that are the only ones missing. Even the Huakai Sect who were lost, together with Wu Xi, are now found. 

(The Huakai Sect and Wu Xi who have been shot while lying down. "…") 

"No." Chen Han sighed, his anxiety returned again. "However, Ah Tian and I saw some of their traces when we passed by in an area earlier." He said and told them about the giant fire Cheng Sheng and Fei Yin made. 

They were about to say that anyone can make a fire, so how can they sure they were Cheng Sheng and Fei Yin. 

However, Chen Han added. "There are traces of bread crumbs which they must have eaten, and we followed it. However, it was stopped halfway." He said. 

Everyone. "…" it's definitely Cheng Sheng, and Fei Yin, who is doting on Cheng Sheng, who can still eat at this situation. 

"Keh – " Li Tian coughed when he came to. 

"Ah Tian!" Chen Han cried and immediately wiped Li Tian's mouth when he spat out the potion. "How do you feel?" he asked. 

"Fine… I just heard you were talking about Cheng-shidi – " Li Tian smiled. 

The other sects who heard what Li Tian said. "…" so Cheng Sheng can make someone unconscious conscious now even if he's not present? Just say his name? 

"Li-shixiong!" Feng Mo called from the other side of the wall. 

Li Tian's eyed widened. "Feng-shidi!" he called. "Are you alright? You weren't hurt, weren't you?" he asked as he tried to stand but his body felt weak and he almost collapsed had it not for Chen Han who caught him. 

"No… just ran out of qi…" Feng Mo scratched his head. He is hot-tempered, so he would rush to fight. He would've continued fighting the fireballs had it not for Jing Kang stopping him. 

Li Tian sighed in relief. "Have any of you thought how to break down the wall?" he asked and turned to the Zunjingde Sect. 

"No." Jing Cheng answered. "There walls and the grounds shook earlier, and then we were suppressed by the gravity." He explained. 

Chen Han and the Huakai Sect. "…" why do we feel there are hidden knives in Jing Cheng's words? 

(A/N: there is.) 

Li Tian awkwardly smiled and spoke to relieve the tension. "I have a way." He told them. 

"What way?" Jing Bai asked. They are also worried for Jing Kang since the other was still on the other side of the wall. The faster they could gather together, the better. 

"Without A Trace." Li Tian answered. 

"'Without A Trace'? What's that?" they asked.

"Ah! Li-shixiong, could that be what Cheng-shid showed us before in Xinfaxian when we were training for the competition?!" Feng Mo reacted. "Indeed, it is feasible." He said. 

"What is this Without A Trace?" Chen Han asked Li Tian. 

"It is an array in which anything inside it would disappear without a trace." Li Tian explained. 

"An array?" Chen Han frowned. "No. You can't. Arrays are taxing to the qi and also your body since you aren't a mage array – " he said. 

Li Tian shook his head. "This array is simple and takes less qi." he said. 

"Then, why didn't you use it earlier above against the insects?" Shan Lu asked. It was a sincere question. 

Li Tian smiled. "The objects that will disappear in the array, I have to consider aside from the size of this array. The bigger the object that this array will eliminate, the greater the qi I have to spend." He explained. 

Tang Zhe nodded in understanding and thanked Li Tian for the array earlier that he used. Li Tian just nodded and then walked towards the wall. Chen Han immediately followed behind him and Wu Xi conscientiously helped Chen Han give Li Tian some qi for the array. 

"Eliminating Array." Li Tian muttered as he pressed his hands on the wall. 

The other sects as they watched an array appeared on the wall and the wall inside the array started to disappear. "…" Cheng Sheng actually still have this trick?! Does he still have a plan to let us live?!
