Little Friend, Do You Have Many Questions?

"?????"

Countless question marks popped up over Xiao Gui's head.

He could not understand what Ye Yu was saying.

It was not that Xiao Gui was ignorant; Ye Yu was simply too cunning.

He actually said things that Xiao Gui could not understand!

How awful!

"Little friend, do you have many questions?"

"That's right. Study hard from now on, lest people mistake you for an illiterate when you go out!"

Ye Yu stood up, walked over to Xiao Gui, patted him on the shoulder, and casually stuffed Theories of Deities back into his hands.

Then, he leisurely pushed open the door and left the library, leaving Xiao Gui standing there alone in a complete daze.

Only after a long while did Xiao Gui gradually come back to his senses.

His delicate face instantly turned crimson.

"Ye Yu!"

Xiao Gui huffed out those two words.

He had actually been looked down on?

I, Xiao Gui, have always regarded you as my rival!

But you look down on me?

"Ye Yu, can't you just look at me properly for once?"

"Am I really that lacking in presence in your eyes?"

A sense of grievance rose in Xiao Gui's heart.

He desperately wanted to immediately, right now, go question Ye Yu. Why did he ignore him like this?

Why did he treat him like he was invisible?

I'm already the number one genius now.

Is my talent still not worthy of your attention?

But when it came time to actually confront Ye Yu, he lost his nerve again!

Ever since childhood, Ye Yu had always been the darling of Arbor God City.

Everyone thought highly of him, flattered him, and fawned over him.

They saw him as Arbor God City's future star.

Even putting that aside, just in terms of looks and bearing—

Before Ye Yu, every boy of their generation was utterly overshadowed.

No one knew how many young ladies in Arbor God City had been utterly infatuated with Ye Yu, wishing they could marry him at once!

And what about Xiao Gui?

He had always been nothing more than an unnoticed nobody. No one paid attention to him, and no one cared about him!

He could only silently watch Ye Yu bask in applause and flowers.

He had long since grown used to all of it.

He yearned to be noticed. He yearned for that handsome youth standing high above everyone else to look at him just one more time!

Until Awakening Day, when he finally got his wish and stole everyone's spotlight.

He became the genius admired by all, the hope of Arbor God City.

When he subtly provoked Ye Yu, was it not merely to attract Ye Yu's attention?

Yet he discovered that Ye Yu was still the same Ye Yu.

He still would not look at him properly!

He still treated him like an unnoticed nobody!

That made Xiao Gui feel miserable.

Why could Ye Yu not take him seriously?

Even one serious glance would have been enough!

"Ye Yu, I'll kill you!"

"I'll kill you openly and honorably, right in front of everyone!"

"Then... then, our Divine Sparks will fuse together, never to be separated again!"

Xiao Gui's chest rose and fell violently, while his delicate face grew redder and redder, as if blood might drip from it!

The thought of his Divine Spark merging with Ye Yu's made him unable to contain his excitement!

Ye Yu leisurely returned to his room.

The moment he entered, a knock suddenly sounded beside his ear.

"Come in!"

Ye Yu was slightly surprised.

Creak!

The door was abruptly pushed open.

Immediately afterward, an ordinary-looking youth slowly walked in.

This youth truly looked completely unremarkable, the sort who would vanish into a crowd without anyone noticing.

"You?"

A trace of suspicion flashed through Ye Yu's eyes upon seeing him.

Naturally, Ye Yu knew this youth.

His name was Ma Baoguo. Aside from Xiao Gui, he had been the most outstanding new god on Awakening Day.

His initial Divine Domain covered eight hundred square kilometers, and his Divine Power had reached seven hundred. Afterward, he had even awakened the Scorpion Lion Race.

It could be said that compared with Xiao Gui, he was only a tiny bit inferior.

"Hello, Ye Yu!"

Ma Baoguo looked gentle, his face full of smiles.

Though Ye Yu found Ma Baoguo's goodwill strange, he did not take it too seriously.

In the World of Gods, not a single person capable of becoming a deity was harmless.

He did not believe anyone would show goodwill for no reason at all.

Clearly, this Ma Baoguo either wanted something from him or had some other motive.

Thus, Ye Yu's expression was cold.

"What is it?"

Seeing Ye Yu act as though he were keeping everyone at arm's length, Ma Baoguo could not help feeling annoyed.

I'm already Arbor God City's second greatest genius!

And you're nothing but a bottom-tier trash god!

I've lowered myself and come all the way to see you personally, yet you're still acting so coldly?

Why?

However, just as Ye Yu had guessed, Ma Baoguo indeed wanted something from him.

Or rather, he wanted to use Ye Yu.

He forcibly suppressed the displeasure in his heart!

"Ahem, Ye Yu, don't be so hostile toward me!"

"I mean you no harm!"

"Actually, I sympathize deeply with what happened to you."

"Do you know? On Awakening Day, when I saw Xiao Gui seemingly provoking you, I was practically furious!"

"Tell me, what right did Xiao Gui have to strut around before you? Back when you were in your glory, Xiao Gui was still just a kid..."

Ma Baoguo rambled on and on, seeming to flatter Ye Yu constantly with his words.

Yet anyone with half a brain could hear that he was trying to drive a wedge between Ye Yu and Xiao Gui.

Ye Yu frowned slightly and glanced at Ma Baoguo.

"Get to the point!"

Ma Baoguo gave an embarrassed smile.

"Ye Yu, can you really endure Xiao Gui being so ungrateful?"

"You should know that, in the eyes of all of us, you are the true candidate to become a True God. You are only temporarily at a low point right now."

"In fact, even us bystanders cannot stand watching this anymore."

"Ye Yu, take the lead. As long as you raise your arm and call out, all of us will support you!"

"Don't look at how highly the Divine Envoy values Xiao Gui now. As long as we unite, we can definitely bring him down!"

"When the time comes, we'll help you expand your Divine Domain. Then you'll become our leader again and lead Arbor God City to glory!"

"What do you think of my proposal?"

After Ma Baoguo finished speaking, he looked at Ye Yu. Yet upon closer inspection, there was not the slightest sign in his eyes that he hoped Ye Yu would agree.

Ye Yu looked at Ma Baoguo as though he were an idiot.

"Do you take me for a fool?"

He had originally thought Ma Baoguo had some kind of scheme.

Who would have thought that he merely wanted to provoke Ye Yu into standing against Xiao Gui?

Did he really think Ye Yu was an idiot?

Did he think Ye Yu could not see through such an obvious attempt to sow discord?

Just then, Ma Baoguo suddenly raised his voice and walked toward Ye Yu, as if he had not heard what Ye Yu said.

"What did you say?"

Ye Yu's expression turned cold.

"Get lost!"

The instant the word "lost" left his mouth, Ma Baoguo's body began trembling as though he had been struck by lightning!

Then, he dramatically fell backward, letting out an enraged roar.

"Ye Yu, you're so vicious! You actually attacked me!"

Seeing Ma Baoguo's clumsy performance, Ye Yu instantly understood.

"So this was your goal!"
