The current research set out to explore how Chinese-English bilingual scholars utilize their linguistic and cultural resources in teaching and academic inquiry. Adopting the theoretical lenses of translanguaging and multilingual perspective on creativity, I explored the teaching, research, and academic writing practices of three bilingual scholars. The study was framed as a multiple-case narrative inquiry. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews, online and in-person observation, and artifact collection. Data analysis went through within-case narrative analysis and cross-case synthesis. Findings indicated that all participants translanguaged in their teaching, research, and academic writing practices. By going between and beyond linguistic structures and cultural systems, they expanded their methodological toolkits, gained new understandings of socio-cultural phenomena, bent rules of academic writing, alternated channels of information transmission, and made their scholarship known to a wider audience. The transcending languaging not only was the creative use of language for participants' intellectual pursuit but also contributed to the quality and transmission of their scholarship. This study contributed to the multilingual turn in applied linguistics and education research. Translanguaging was found to be ubiquitous in the three bilingual scholars' academic sense-making and communication process. Creativity emerged as individuals materialized their translanguaging instinct contingent upon contextual constraints. These findings challenge the monolingual orientation and language separation in the education and research of bilinguals. The study calls for researchers to develop more translanguaging pedagogies that maximize the learning potentials of emergent bilinguals and affirms and educators to create a safe and empowering space that affirms EB's bilingual identities.
