The Scum Is A ***

"Sun Yi…" Wu Yuan called as he stared at Sun Yi\'s face, watching the other fly behind the Huakai Sect. His usually emotionless face is stained with tears, and his eyes that wore a blank gaze is now red. "Sun Yi… I miss you…" he said as he caressed Sun Yi\'s face on the mirror. 

As if Sun Yi heard his voice, he suddenly stopped and turned his head. Wu Yuan\'s heart skipped a beat, and when he saw Sun Yi directly faced him, and their eyes met, he felt his heart stopped and his whole being froze. 

"Sun Yi…" he whispered, his voice hoarse. "Can you hear me…?" he asked. 

Huilong Continent, Central Region. 

Tang Zhe, Tang Yun, Guo Cheng and Shan Lu saw Sun Yi suddenly stopped flying. 

"Senior Sun?" Tang Yun called as they watch Sun Yi look around behind them. "What\'s wrong?" he asked. 

They didn\'t hear him answer and just stood there on his sword. 

"What\'s the matter?" Guo Cheng asked. "Did he see something? But, we have already fend off of our tails those demonic cultivators…" he said as they looked at Sun Yi\'s back. 

None of them spoke after that, since they don\'t know what happened to Sun Yi. But, they didn\'t dare disturb him since they saw his expression looked concentrated while he gazed in one direction. Not long after and they finally heard Sun Yi spoke, but what his words shocked them. 

"Yuan…?" Sun Yi muttered under his breath. 

"\'Yuan\'… by \'Yuan\', does he mean - ?" the Huakai Sect disciples looked at each other, shock can be seen on their face as their gazes spoke. 

\'Yuan\'… that\'s the name of Sun Yi\'s husband – Wu Yuan! And is the current leader of the Youxiwang Sect, where Ming Ye – or now known as Wu Ran, deeply hid for a hundred year. But, why did Sun Yi call Wu Yuan\'s name? It can\'t be that he just missed his husband? Wu Yuan isn\'t here. Wu Yuan has left with Cheng Sheng, Fei Yin and Chen Han before to go to Youxiwang Sect and confront Ming Ye – or Wu Ran! 

"Yuan!" Sun Yi cried as his eyes turned red. "Yuan… I hear you…" he said as his tears fell. "Are you safe? Please, tell me you are safe!" he told him and sobbed. 

The Huakai Sect disciples gaped at Sun Yi, stunned. It\'s not that they think that Sun Yi is crazy for talking to the air. But, it\'s because they believe in Sun Yi. "Could it be – " they said and looked at each other with widened eyes. "Cheng Sheng?!" their jaw dropped. 

Sun Yi heard them and he also knows that it could only be Cheng Sheng. "Cheng-shidi again…" he smiled, then laughed, feeling amused. "Cheng-shidi ah… how is he?" he asked. Even though no one answered him, but he still grinned. "We owe it to Cheng-shidi." He spoke again. "Yuan." He called. "Be safe there, okay? And, protect Cheng-shidi. If not for him, we might not hear each other\'s voices right now." He said. 

Behind Sun Yi, the Huakai Sect\'s face flushed in excitement. "I knew it! It\'s Cheng Sheng!" they said as their eyes brightened. "He must have used a spell or something… it can be a treasure?" they spoke. 

If it\'s Cheng Sheng, then it must be possible that Sun Yi, right now, is talking to Wu Yuan! 

Heilong Realm. 

Wu Yuan\'s hands shook and he almost dropped the Mirror of Yearning in both shock and ecstasy. "Sun Yi… Sun Yi!" he spoke, repeatedly calling his husband\'s name. "Sun Yi…" he muttered. Slowly, a smile formed on his lips as he watched Sun Yi \'talk\' to him. 

As Cheng Sheng said, he can\'t hear Sun Yi\'s voice. But, as long as he can watch Sun Yi, he is satisfied. He can also guess what Sun Yi is saying by reading Sun Yi\'s expression, as well as reading the shape of his lips. It\'s just such a pity Sun Yi can\'t see him. But, it is enough that Sun Yi has heard him earlier. 

"Sun Yi…" he called. "I miss you. I love you. I…" he took a deep breath. "We are currently safe in Heilong. We still haven\'t found father and uncle Jing. Cheng Sheng and Fei Yin are a great help. They are kind juniors. Chen-shixiong - " his voice paused. " – we left him in the Youxiwang Sect. He\'s in Wu Ran\'s hands now. But, Wu Ran wouldn\'t kill him. Wu Ran would use him against us. Chen-shixiong can buy us more time…" he explained. "Sun Yi… you, as well as everyone… you all definitely have to be safe!" he told him. He closed his eyes and lowered his head as he bumped his forehead against the mirror, where Sun Yi\'s face can be seen. "I love you." He whispered. 

Huilong Continent, Central Region. 

Sun Yi sharpened his ears and he caught some words in the air. "… shixiong… left…" he muttered as he closed his eyes tight and concentrated. "… wouldn\'t kill… time…" he muttered. 

"What is he muttering?" Shan Lu asked as they watched Sun Yi. 

"Shh!" Tang Zhe and Tang Yun shushed while Guo Cheng rolled his eyes and covered Shan Lu\'s mouth to prevent him from talking. 

Suddenly, Sun Yi\'s eyes snapped open and wide and his pupils constricted when he felt something warm was pressed on his forehead. 

"I love you." It is Wu Yuan\'s voice. He didn\'t imagine it! It was really Wu Yuan\'s voice! 

He held his breath. "Yuan…" he called as he choked back a sob. "I love you, too…. You must return home!" he yelled. 

The Huakai Sect was taken aback and suddenly, they felt they have been fed by dog food. "…" the other party isn\'t even present, yet what is this blind display of love?! 

Sun Yi has his back on them and he didn\'t know the Huakai Sect\'s issues. He wiped his tears before he giggled. "Yuan… I miss you, too." He whispered and brightly smiled. Then, he turned to the Huakai Sect. His eyes are still red from crying, but his gaze is firm. "We have to detour and drop by the Righteous Alliance!" he said. 

"Yes!" the Huakai Sect disciples answered and didn\'t ask anything. They believe that Sun Yi will explain it to them when they reached the Zhongyang. 

Heilong Realm. 

Wu Yuan\'s breath hitched and the Mirror of Yearning almost cracked after he gripped it tight when he saw Sun Yi\'s smile. "Sun Yi…" he called as he watched Sun Yi\'s figure disappeared in the mirror. 

"Senior Wu has a fruitful \'reunion\' with senior Sun?" Cheng Sheng asked as he and Fei Yin returned. A teasing smile was on his face. 

Wu Yuan didn\'t blush, but one could see that his eyes are bright. "En." He answered. "Cheng Sheng." He called. 

"Hm?" Cheng Sheng answered as he sat across Wu Yuan while Fei Yin started the fire. 

"Yesterday, you said that Sun Yi can\'t hear me, and vice versa. But, just now…" Wu Yuan said and looked at the Mirror of Yearning. 

The expression on Cheng Sheng\'s face suddenly changed. "You heard each other?" he asked, surprised. 

Wu Yuan nodded, before he shook his head. "Our voice… and some words." He answered. "The message conveyed is vague, but we can understand each other." He explained. 

Cheng Sheng\'s expression became pensive. "This isn\'t right…" he muttered. His brows knitted, feeling puzzled. 

"What\'s wrong?" Fei Yin asked when he returned after he washed the ingredients on the river. 

Cheng Sheng immediately relayed to him what happened. 

Fei Yin prepared the ingredients as he spoke. "Seeing each other\'s face is easier than hearing each other\'s voice since light travels faster than the sound." He said. 

Cheng Sheng nodded in agreement. Wu Yuan couldn\'t understand what are they talking about, but he greatly trusts them. 

"Actually, the Mirror of Yearning shouldn\'t work." Fei Yin said. 

"Why?" Cheng Sheng asked. 

"Because we are in a different realm." Fei Yin answered. 

Cheng Sheng was stunned. 

"But, they still saw each other. Furthermore, they could hear each other\'s voice, though barely." Fei Yin said as he placed the ingredients on the pot. 

Cheng Sheng and Wu Yuan were momentarily distracted. "…" he\'s so fast in cooking! 

"It seems that this Mirror of Yearning is very powerful." Fei Yin said. "But, as well as their sense of longing towards each other." He looked at Wu Yuan. "So great that it can surpass the space." He said. 

Although Wu Yuan only understand a little from their conversation, but based on Cheng Sheng\'s and Fei Yin\'s expression, it wasn\'t bad. "There won\'t be any effect on Sun Yi, right?" he asked. 

"No." Fei Yin answered. "Please be assured." He told him. 

Cheng Sheng. "…" shouldn\'t it be me who\'s supposed to say that? It\'s my treasure! 

Wu Yuan, who is over the moon after seeing Sun Yi and hearing Sun Yi\'s voice, didn\'t notice Cheng Sheng\'s face filled with chagrin. He happily wiped the mirror\'s surface until it was sparkling. He can\'t wait to see Sun Yi again. "Oh, right. Cheng Sheng – " he called as he looked at the other who has finally recovered his calm expression. " – are you really giving me this treasure?" he asked.
