"Mmm—"
Yu Xiaogang, his mouth gagged, writhed wildly. The sounds emanating from his soul tool made him feel as if he had been stripped naked and thrown onto the street.
Liu Erlong, pale-faced, covered her mouth, tears streaming down her face.
Yu Xiaowei's questioning and Yu Xiaogang's evasive answers plunged her heart into an abyss of coldness.
Especially that last muttered monologue, which completely broke this strong woman.
She couldn't believe that the love she had held onto for nearly thirty years had been used as a substitute.
As for Tang San and the others, they had already been thrown out by Flander when Yu Xiaowei played the recording. His emotions were complicated, and he hadn't paid attention to the force he used, not even knowing where he had thrown them.
"Xiao Wei, tell your sister, these words aren't true, they're all lies, okay, okay?"
Liu Erlong bit her lip, pleadingly grabbing Yu Xiaowei's shoulders and shaking him, hoping to hear him say, "It's fake."
Yu Xiaowei looked at his sister with heartache. He raised the soul tool in his hand, glaring hatefully at the pale-faced Yu Xiaogang.
"Sister, don't you know what the function of the things our family researches is?"
"I specifically carried this with me so you could hear someone's inner thoughts."
Hearing Yu Xiaowei's answer, Liu Erlong felt utterly hopeless.
Originally, she didn't care about family affairs, but this thing was a plan proposed by Yu Xiaowei, and then the family created it based on the body structure of a special soul beast. Yu Xiaowei had shown off this finished product to her many times.
And the only function of this soul tool was that it could record sound and save it for up to a month.
So what Yu Xiaogang said was true. Liu
Erlong couldn't accept it for a moment, unconsciously taking two steps back and falling to the ground. She curled up, hugging her knees and sobbing.
"So you still love that bitch."
"So I was just her substitute."
Yu Xiaogang had given up struggling, lying numbly on the ground, looking at the clear sky.
Flander, watching the distraught Liu Erlong, felt heartbroken. He wanted to go over and comfort her, but didn't know what to say.
"Go over there, you fool, such a good opportunity."
At this moment, a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz rang in his ear, startling Flander. Fortunately, Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang were both immersed in their own worlds, and no one noticed his abnormality.
The sound was so subtle
it was almost a line. This required extremely precise control over soul power, a skill usually possessed only by Soul Saints.
Flander looked at Yu Xiaowei, who was gesturing wildly at him, shocked yet also somewhat tempted.
"What are you waiting for? What my sister needs most right now is a warm hug. Go now, you idiot!"
"Yu Xiaogang is already crippled. If you don't go and comfort my sister, are you trying to kill her?"
Yu Xiaowei's urging echoed in Flander's ears, and his breathing became increasingly heavy.
He glanced at the lifeless Yu Xiaogang, then at Liu Erlong, who was crying so hard she was almost unconscious. He gritted his teeth, steeled his resolve, and stepped forward, gently putting his arm around Liu Erlong's shoulder. He said softly,
"Erlong, I'm here..."
Liu Erlong, her eyes brimming with tears, immediately found an outlet. She grabbed Flander's clothes, buried her head in his chest, and burst into tears.
Yu Xiaogang's body jolted violently. He looked at Flander and Liu Erlong in disbelief, his eyes wide like lanterns.
He tried to shout something, but his mouth was stuffed full of socks, and he couldn't make a sound. He could only desperately twist his body.
Yu Xiaowei nodded in satisfaction, gave Flander a thumbs-up, and then walked towards Yu Xiaogang, who looked like a giant caterpillar, with a strange grin.
The two Soul Saints, who were crying their eyes out, didn't even notice when the two of them left.
Yu Xiaowei headed out of the city.
This route was one he had carefully chosen, passing through some of the most bustling streets of Tiandou City.
Passersby cast curious glances at him, and Yu Xiaogang, whom he was carrying, struggled frantically, his face flushed red.
An hour later, Yu Xiaowei led him to a small grove outside the city and untied the ropes binding him.
After stretching his limbs, Yu Xiaogang took a few deep breaths, and his ashen face gradually returned to its previous blank state.
He said in a completely emotionless voice,
"You did this on purpose."
"Isn't that obvious?"
"Why?"
Yu Xiaowei didn't answer, but stared at him without moving. Yu Xiaogang returned the gaze.
This continued for a long time until Yu Xiaowei chuckled.
"To be honest, sometimes I really can't tell if you're genuinely stupid or just pretending."
"I don't understand what you're saying."
Yu Xiaogang's numb face remained expressionless.
Even though Yu Xiaowei had stripped him bare, his lover and brother were embracing, and he was being paraded through the streets of Tiandou City,
it all seemed to have nothing to do with him.
But Yu Xiaowei's next seemingly nonsensical remark stirred something in his usually placid face.
"You've persevered for so many years, it's not easy. I was actually quite sympathetic to you, but what can I do? You've messed with me."
Yu Xiaogang frowned, his voice slightly hoarse.
"It sounds like you know me better than my father."
"Even though we've never met."
Yu Xiaowei chuckled and waved his hand dismissively.
"For your uncle's sake, I'll let you go this time."
"But if I find out you're going against me in the future,"
"I will kill you!"
"Even your uncle won't be able to save you then. Remember what I said."
Hearing Yu Xiaowei's chilling threat, Yu Xiaogang didn't respond, turning and leaving without hesitation. He
showed no regret for his disciple or his former lover.
Watching his back hunch over in an instant, Yu Xiaowei shook his head.
Yu Xiaogang was a pathetic and pitiful man.
Clearly as weak as a pig, yet his ambitions soared.
He desperately tried to prove himself to everyone, only to be repeatedly thwarted, yet he persisted relentlessly, even when battered and bruised.
Did Yu Xiaogang love Liu Erlong?
Perhaps, but Yu Xiaowei didn't believe it. He was more inclined to think that Yu Xiaogang was using Liu Erlong to regain the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's attention and convince the clansmen of his theories.
After all, Liu Erlong's Fire Dragon Martial Soul, though mutated, still clearly retained the characteristics of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Unless Yu Xiaogang was blind, it was impossible for him to only realize Liu Erlong was a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex clan after Yu Luomian came to cause trouble.
Therefore, he was determined to separate Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong.
Why was Tang San being trained?
It's simple: twin martial souls, innate full soul power—a genius that might not appear for hundreds of years.
As long as Tang San could be granted a title, Yu Xiaogang, as his teacher, would become famous throughout the continent, and his theories would be accepted by more people.
However, Tang San currently held the reins himself, and Yu Xiaogang alone couldn't cause much trouble.
Did Yu Xiaogang love Bibi Dong?
Let's say so, regardless of what he did, at least that's how it's written in the original work.
Perhaps at first he simply wanted to use Bibi Dong, but later he genuinely developed feelings for her.
But whatever Yu Xiaogang's thoughts, that crazy woman truly and sincerely loved him.
So the most troublesome thing is that if he kills or cripples him now, the Spirit Hall will attack the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan tomorrow. "
Unbearable—"
Yu Xiaowei sighed, seemingly casually remarking.
"Uncle, are you satisfied with how I handled this?"
Only a sigh drifted over from afar, without anyone appearing.
"This is the best solution. Thank you, Xiaowei."
