Chapter 160: Yu Xiaogang is driven out of the far north.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, turned their attention to Yu Xiaolie's actions.
After understanding the situation and discovering that it was his own sect members who lacked empathy, Hu Yanruo's gaze immediately turned fierce.
Staring at Shi Lei, he snapped, "Shi Lei, go and get the diamond concentrate that Xiao Lie wants. Give him as much as he wants, and then arrange for a few skilled men to load it."
Facing Huyan Ruo, Shi Lei didn't dare to even breathe loudly.
However, he had also secretly accepted a bribe from the Third Elder of the Blue Lightning Sect. Since he had taken the money, he was obligated to do the job. So he could only pretend to be troubled and mutter to himself, "Young Master, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
"What's wrong with it? Do you or I have the final say?"
Hu Yanruo raised an eyebrow and said in an unquestionable tone.
Startled by his shout, Shi Lei dared not say another word and retrieved the goods Yu Xiaolie had requested.
Soon, several heavy boxes of diamond concentrate were loaded onto three trucks. During this time, Hu Yanruo personally inspected the goods to ensure that everything was correct, so Yu Xiaolie didn't have to worry about any further problems.
Hu Yanruo wanted Yu Xiaolie to stay overnight so the two brothers could have a good chat, but Yu Xiaolie declined.
All he wanted to do now was finish this mission as soon as possible and go back to face the Third Elder.
Hu Yanruo sighed helplessly, patted Yu Xiaolie on the back, and said, "Alright then, take care on your journey. We'll have a good drink together next time you come back!"
Yu Xiaolie smiled and nodded. After bidding farewell to Hu Yanruo, he led his disciples and goods on the journey back to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
...
In the far north, the wind howls and snowflakes flutter.
Inside the Red Guard Hunting Group's camp, the atmosphere was unusually tense.
Chu Huaizhou angrily pulled Yu Xiaogang along, followed by his hunting team. One of the women was pale and had bandages wrapped around her chest and back, clearly indicating that she had suffered a serious injury.
As they walked through the camp's passageways, they attracted the attention of many members of the hunting party.
The crowd was abuzz with discussion, curious about what had happened.
"Isn't that the new guy, Yu Xiaogang? Why is Captain Chu carrying him away?"
"I heard they went on a mission today and almost got Ah Zi killed..."
"No way? Isn't he a Dragon Cub Martial Soul?"
"Tch, so useless? Can't even defend against a two-thousand-year-old soul beast!"
Yu Xiaogang was seen being dragged along, stumbling and falling, his heavy coat covered in mud and snow, looking utterly disheveled.
He tried to break free, but Chu Huaizhou's hand was like iron clamps, holding him so tightly that he couldn't move.
Just then, Morris came out of his office and bumped into the group.
He limped forward two steps, frowned, and asked:
"What happened?"
Chu Huaizhou slammed Yu Xiaogang to the ground, splashing up a cloud of snowflakes.
Yu Xiaogang groaned, and before he could even get up, he heard Chu Huaizhou shout angrily, "I was wondering why this guy was so reluctant to go on the mission with us!"
As he spoke, he finally caught his breath, looked at Yu Xiaogang, and angrily shouted, "Say it yourself!"
Yu Xiaogang pursed his lips, remaining silent, his stubbornness tinged with a hint of panic.
Morris looked at Hott with a puzzled expression. Hott scratched his head, somewhat guiltily saying:
"Captain, he... is only level 27, and only has two hundred-year soul rings."
After a pause, Haote glanced at Morris's expression and added, "Moreover, his martial soul... cannot transform into a dragon."
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang's face flushed crimson, and he abruptly raised his head and roared:
"What do you mean I only have two hundred-year-old soul rings? Weren't my first two soul rings both hundred-year-old? What's the problem with that!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Chu Huaizhou slapped him across the face!
With a sharp "smack," Yu Xiaogang's cheek immediately swelled up.
This happened extremely quickly, and the crowd of onlookers immediately erupted in uproar.
Chu Huaizhou trembled with rage and spat out:
"Trash! You caused Azi to get injured, and you still dare to make excuses? You don't have that ability! You even dare to ask the support-type soul masters in the protection team to come."
And what happened? If I hadn't reacted quickly, Ah Zi would be dead!
Azi stood to the side, her face ashen, biting her lip and remaining silent.
She had always thought that she could entrust her back to Yu Xiaogang, just as she had entrusted it to Yu Xiaolie before.
Little did they know, they almost lost their lives.
Yu Xiaogang staggered from the blow, covered his face and stood up, his stubbornness ignited in his eyes.
Although his shortcomings did indeed lead to the team's near defeat in this mission.
But Chu Huaizhou humiliated him in front of everyone because of this?
In the end, didn't they catch that thousand-year-old soul beast too?!
Suddenly, Yu Xiaogang sprang up and lunged at Chu Huaizhou, arguing as he spoke:
"You were the one who begged me to join the team in the first place!"
Then, the two started fighting, but Chu Huaizhou was now a genuine level 61 Soul Emperor, and his physical qualities were far superior to Yu Xiaogang's. He quickly pinned Yu Xiaogang to the snow and rained down punches on him.
He originally thought that recruiting Yu Xiaogang would make his hunting team even stronger, but he never expected that it would almost kill his own teammate.
It's one thing that Yu Xiaogang is only level 27! And it's another that he can't transform into a dragon!
But he seemed completely confident, and before setting off on the mission, he gave a detailed critique of everyone's martial spirit.
He even took the initiative to assign tasks to everyone in the team.
He acted with such skill that it made people think he was a master of many arts.
I thought he could unleash his ultimate move, but he just pooped a huge mess!
They don't have the ability but they're putting on such a big show!
Chu Huaizhou grew angrier the more he hit Yu Xiaogang, and pinned him to the snow.
If it weren't for Yu Xiaolie's sake, given his temperament, he would have killed Yu Xiaogang on the spot.
The crowd grew larger and larger, and the discussions continued.
Suddenly, Morris shouted coldly, "Enough!"
Chu Huaizhou stopped, panting heavily, but his eyes remained fierce.
Yu Xiaogang curled up on the ground, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, but he glared at them with a defiant look on his face.
Morris sighed and said in a deep voice:
"Alright, I understand everything."
As he spoke, the expectation in his eyes when he looked at Yu Xiaogang had vanished, replaced by a hint of indifference. He continued:
"Yu Xiaogang, I don't blame you for this mission, but the hunting party doesn't need someone like you who only drags your teammates down."
Morris has made it very clear, so how could Yu Xiaogang not understand?
However, he was not convinced.
Yu Xiaogang suddenly raised his head, unwilling to give up, and said, "You want me to leave? Fine! But I also contributed to this mission! You have to give me the money for this mission!"
The members of the hunting team nearby were so angry they stomped their feet and stood up to yell at each other:
"You still have the nerve to ask for money? We haven't even settled Azi's medical bills with you yet!"
Morris, too lazy to waste any more words, took a few gold soul coins from his pocket and casually tossed them onto the snow:
"Take this and let's go quickly."
Morris tolerated Yu Xiaogang out of consideration for Yu Xiaolie.
Yu Xiaogang picked up the few gold soul coins from the snow. Because he had been beaten so fiercely, his chest was still heaving violently.
After collecting the gold soul coins, he didn't forget to continue his taunts against Chu Huaizhou and his group, coldly saying:
"Ha, you... are nothing more than this."
Indeed, a team leader is only a Soul Emperor. Back in Wuhun City, I was beaten up by a Title Douluo!
He even had a romantic relationship with a saintess who possessed twin martial souls.
These frogs in a well!
Chu Huaizhou was completely enraged and pointed at his nose, cursing:
"Useless! You're far inferior to your younger brother, Yu Xiaolie! Trash!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang's smile froze on his face, and his mind went blank.
Is that the same phrase again?
Bibi Dong said this when they were in Wuhun City.
Here, these crude hunters still say the same thing.
Yu Xiaogang stood up unsteadily, clutching the Golden Soul Coin in one hand and brushing the snow off his body with the other.
Thinking back, the last time I saw Yu Xiaolie was at the sect's grand ceremony.
He rushed out the door without exchanging a single word with him.
But Yu Xiaogang was able to make that judgment.
After traveling for so many years, Yu Xiaolie finally returned home for the sect leader's ceremony, a time of celebration for the family and the happiest time for the elders.
What does this mean?
This shows that he has had enough of the life of a vagrant and wants to go home and enjoy a comfortable life!
Yu Xiaogang couldn't guarantee anything about others, but he would never allow his useless younger brother to surpass him.
Hmph, Yu Xiaolie? Who does he think he is? He's probably hiding in his sect like a coward right now, too afraid to even step out the door! He's probably terrified of getting beaten up by society!
Unlike him, who had traveled far and wide, witnessing the fickleness of human nature and the wickedness of people's hearts.
