Frustrated Yu Xiaogang

~7 min read 1,289 words

"Ah? Brother Xiaogang, but that soul beast..."

Bai Xiuxiu looked at the seriously injured Demon Leopard on the ground, and then looked at the direction in which her savior was leaving, feeling a little hesitant.

"Let's go as soon as I say!"

Yu Xiaogang's tone was unusually strong, even with a hint of anger and impatience. He dragged Bai Xiuxiu involuntarily and hurried away in the opposite direction to Yu Tianjun. His back looked a little hasty and embarrassed.

Bai Xiuxiu was dragged by him and staggered. She turned back and glanced at the direction where the figure in green shirt disappeared. Inexplicably, she felt a sense of disappointment and strangeness in Yu Xiaogang's reaction at this moment.

It was night, and the two of them found a cave to rest on the outskirts of the forest.

Beside the bonfire, Yu Xiaogang was still unhappy and his face was gloomy.

Bai Xiuxiu silently prepared simple food, and the atmosphere was a bit stagnant.

"Xiuxiu,"

Yu Xiaogang suddenly spoke, his voice a little dry.

"I rarely mention my family affairs to you."

Bai Xiuxiu paused and looked up at him.

Apart from the last time she and Yu Xiaogang went to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, Bai Xiuxiu knew nothing about Yu Xiaogang.

"He has been the pride of heaven since he was a child. He is better than me in everything. Everyone revolves around him."

There was sourness and resentment in Yu Xiaogang's tone that he was not even aware of.

"He showed up today not to help us at all, but just happened to be passing by and showed off his power casually to set off my incompetence! He just likes to see me like this!"

Bai Xiuxiu looked at him quietly, the firelight reflecting her beautiful profile.

During this period of time together, she had actually already faintly felt that Yu Xiaogang was not as gentle and gentle as he appeared on the inside. Instead, he often showed a deep sense of inferiority, sensitivity, and even some... narrow-mindedness.

Especially when facing people who are better than him, this emotion will be more obvious.

But today, hearing him sayThis evaluation of the benefactor who saved their lives, such evaluation of his brother, made the tight string in Bai Xiuxiu's heart seem to snap.

She thought of Bai Tianjun's calm eyes, the indifference with which he easily resolved the crisis, and the ease with which he left without any regrets after nodding.

That is the calmness of a truly strong person from the inside out, which is completely different from the description of "deliberately showing off" and "contrasting incompetence" described by Yu Xiaogang.

She also thought of the "theoretical invincibility" that Yu Xiaogang often talked about along the way, but how he became angry after being repeatedly frustrated when actually facing the soul beast.

Thinking of the unnatural look on his face when he occasionally mentioned other young heroes to me.

Thinking of how he always compares himself with that "genius brother" unconsciously, and then falls into a long-term depression...

"Xiao Gang..."

Bai Xiuxiu's voice was very soft, but it carried a calmness of determination.

"I think we may not be suitable for traveling together anymore."

Yu Xiaogang suddenly raised his head and looked at her in disbelief.

"Xiuxiu? You...what did you say?"

"Thank you for your care and guidance during this time."

Bai Xiuxiu stood up and began to pack her simple luggage.

"But I feel that I need to practice alone and find my own path. You...take care."

"No! Xiuxiu, is it because of what happened today? Is it because of Yu Tianjun?"

Yu Xiaogang stood up excitedly and wanted to hold her hand, but she gently avoided him.

Bai Xiuxiu shook her head and did not explain any more.

She placed a simple soul guide for communication on the stone nearby, bowed slightly to Yu Xiaogang, then turned around and walked into the night outside the cave without hesitation, and her figure was quickly swallowed up by the darkness.

"Xiu Xiu! Xiu Xiu!"

Yu Xiaogang chased him to the entrance of the cave, only to see pitch black and the faint roar of beasts in the distance.

He slumped to the ground, his face full of confusion, pain, and a despair of being abandoned by the world.

Why?

Why did even Xiuxiu leave him?

Is it just because that Jade Heavenly Lord appeared?

A huge sense of loss and self-doubt overwhelmed him like a tide.

He felt that in the eyes of everyone, he would always be the loser living in the shadow of his brother, a giant in theory and a dwarf in action.

Even the only partner willing to accompany him abandoned him.

"Heh...hehe..."

Yu Xiaogang let out a low, bitter laugh.

He looked at the dark forest, then looked back at the dark cave, and a strong urge to escape from everything came to his heart.

Forget about the glory of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, proving one's theory, becoming a respected scholar...forget it.

This world may not need Yu Xiaogang at all.

Finding a small city where no one knows him and spending the rest of his life in obscurity may be the best destination for him.

At least, there will be no shadow of Yu Tianjun there, no comparison, no expectation, and no...disappointment.

He stood up slowly, neither chasing Bai Xiuxiu nor returning to the depths of the forest.

Instead, he chose a fork in the road that was different from the way he came and the direction Yu Tianjun left. He walked with some staggering steps towards the direction of a remote and about to decline small town marked on the map.

The back figure looked particularly lonely and desolate in the gradually brightening morning light.

And of course, Yu Tianjun, who has long since passed away, has no way of knowing all this.

He is still walking among the mountains and rivers, consolidating the ninety-fifth level, waiting for the next opportunity to retreat.

Now Yu Xiaogang has long been ignored by him, and Bai Ri's actions were just casual.

Gu Yuena appeared next to Yu Tianjun.

"I feel a deep resentment in him, and it seems to be towards you."

The King of Ten Thousand Demons appeared cautiously, with a contrasting maturity in his small body.

"Yes, I have the best grasp of resentment. If given a chance, he will definitely get rid of you..."

Having said this, the King of Ten Thousand Demons suddenly smiled.

"But with his strength, I'm afraid it won't be possible in this lifetime."

The gap between Yu Xiaogang and Yu Tianjun is so big that it is inappropriate to say that they are as different as clouds and mud.

After this separation, the two of them may never have the chance to meet again.

Yu Tianjun said nothing and just continued to walk forward.

"Although it is impossible for him, the future is uncertain."

Yu Tianjun suddenly thought of Yu Xiaogang's disciple, the future Tang San.

Tang San achieved the status of Poseidon, and one day in the future, he might bring Yu Xiaogang to see him.

Of course, the premise is that Tang San is willing to bring Yu Xiaogang to the God Realm.

Regarding Tang San's character, Yu Tianjun was not sure what he was like, although there were various analyzes on the Internet about his previous life.

But before seeing it with his own eyes, Yu Tianjun would not jump to conclusions.

Maybe Tang San was a good young man with all-round development of moral, intellectual, physical, artistic and physical abilities.

Yu Tianjun looked at the stars in the sky, looking forward to the development of the plot.
