Ning Rongrong's eyes nearly popped out. Was this Master Yu really that shameless?
Running away once wasn't enough; he ran away a second time.
Although she did not know exactly why Yu Xiaogang had run away again,
abandoning a woman and fleeing on his own was utterly contemptible.
[Bibi Dong: Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter. Yu Erlong, you had this coming. Is this the Gangzi you've been thinking about day and night?]
Bibi Dong immediately laughed when she saw what the group leader had said.
Originally saddened by her own miserable past, Bibi Dong felt much better after seeing that Liu Erlong had suffered just as badly.
In her carelessness, she even exposed Liu Erlong's real name.
[Shadow Cat: So the Pope knows this person? Her surname is Yu... could she be from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan too?]
Zhu Zhuqing was already planning her route on the map.
She intended to leave the Zhu Clan and this stifling empire first thing tomorrow morning.
Then she would go find the group leader!
[A Healer Cannot Heal Themself: The two of them count as romantic rivals. With Bibi Dong's methods, it should have been easy for her to find out who she was.]
[World's Greatest Poison: Tsk... Yu Xiaogang really is a piece of work. We should just call him Yu Run-Run from now on.]
[Group Message: Waiting for One Person for Life changed her nickname to Liu Erlong!]
[Liu Erlong: Bibi Dong! So you really did guess who I was. And who are you calling Yu?]
After seeing Bibi Dong reveal her name, Liu Erlong no longer bothered pretending.
She directly changed her nickname to her own name.
Then she looked at what the group leader had said and sighed.
She had waited so painstakingly for twenty years, thinking of him every day and night. It was impossible for her not to resent Yu Xiaogang.
"Xiaogang, you must have been in great pain back then too..."
[Liu Erlong: Group leader, Xiaogang must have had his own difficulties back then... After all this time, he must have suffered terribly too.]
[Strongest: I won't waste time arguing with you. Let's continue with what happened after Yu Xiaogang left Spirit Hall.]
Yang Xiu felt there was nothing to explain to someone as lovestruck as Liu Erlong. He would simply use the facts to speak to her.
[Strongest: When Yu Xiaogang fled Spirit Hall, he could be said to have completely lost heart. If even Spirit Hall could not find a way to solve his martial soul problem, then there was basically nowhere else on the continent that could. At that point, Yu Xiaogang was lost... Because if he could not find a solution for his martial soul, he would never be able to prove himself.]
[Strongest: So Yu Xiaogang took another path: he wanted to become a master whose theories were unrivaled! Before studying in Spirit Hall's library, Yu Xiaogang didn't understand a damn thing about theories. Afterward, he learned a little, but not much. Otherwise, he would not have failed to understand what Soul Shock was. Soon afterward, he published his martial soul theories. I imagine you have all read Master Yu's theories, right?]
[Not Little Witch: I know this one. There are no useless martial souls, only useless Gangzi!]
[World's Greatest Poison: Hahaha, I'm dying. Little Witch, that was vicious.]
[A Healer Cannot Heal Themself: I remember it being something about martial soul competitiveness. When I wanted to read it as a child, my grandfather told me not to waste my time on that trash.]
[Bibi Dong: That shameless Yu Xiaogang copied most of those theories from Spirit Hall. I truly don't know where he found the nerve to claim he published them himself.]
Since she had already cursed Yu Xiaogang once, Bibi Dong simply stopped pretending.
Anyway, she got annoyed the moment she saw Yu Xiaogang's name!
[Waiting for One Person for Life: Nonsense! Xiaogang earned his martial soul theories through his own hard work, bit by bit.]
Seeing Bibi Dong's remarks, Liu Erlong immediately refuted her.
If Yu Xiaogang's martial soul theories had also been plagiarized, then she truly did not know what good qualities he had left.
[Bibi Dong: He published his theories right after leaving Spirit Hall. If that isn't plagiarism, what is?!]
Bibi Dong sneered.
She had long since sent people to investigate. Yu Xiaogang published his first theory shortly after leaving Spirit Hall.
[Motherless Since Childhood: Stop arguing. Don't criticize others when you're no better yourselves. Bibi Dong, if you hadn't been blind enough to fall for Yu Xiaogang back then, would he have gotten into Spirit Hall's library?]
[Bibi Dong: Hmph!]
[Strongest: Continuing on, during his travels across the continent, Yu Xiaogang met Flender and Liu Erlong one after another. The three of them formed the Golden Iron Triangle, a group that was rather famous across the continent back then.]
[World's Greatest Poison: I think I've heard of them. They say the three of them even had the legendary Trinity Martial Soul Fusion Technique, capable of defeating a Title Douluo.]
[Not Little Witch: What a load of bullshit. With that farting master around, they could defeat a Title Douluo? What a joke.]
[A Healer Cannot Heal Themself: I think at most they could fight the weakest Poison Douluo. Though they definitely still wouldn't win.]
Ye Lingling gave a wicked smile, intending to provoke Dugu Yan.
[World's Greatest Poison: Poison Douluo isn't the weakest Title Douluo! His area-of-effect damage is incredibly powerful, you know?]
[A Healer Cannot Heal Themself: Don't believe it. Never seen it.]
[World's Greatest Poison: Ahhh, I'm so mad!]
[Strongest: The Golden Iron Triangle—two men and one woman. Next came the melodramatic love triangle. Flender liked Liu Erlong, and Yu Xiaogang liked Liu Erlong too,]
[Strongest: Then that turtle of a man, Flender, learned that his brother also liked the woman he loved and voluntarily withdrew. He even single-mindedly helped bring the two together. In the end, just as he wished, Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong got together.]
As Liu Erlong listened to the story of the three of them, her eyes filled with reminiscence.
Back then, the three of them hunted soul beasts together, formed teams together, and occasionally listened to Yu Xiaogang explain his martial soul theories.
How carefree it had been!
But... none of it could be returned to now.
In truth, even if Flender had not withdrawn from the competition, she still would have chosen Yu Xiaogang.
What attracted her to Yu Xiaogang, aside from his being slightly more handsome than Flender, was his martial soul theory.
Having never attended school as a child, she deeply admired intelligent people. To Liu Erlong back then, Yu Xiaogang belonged among those people of wisdom.
But now... after hearing so many different people in the group speak about it,
Liu Erlong began to waver. "Xiaogang, were those martial soul theories really plagiarized? Had I truly been wrong about you back then?"
[Shadow Cat: It hasn't even been that long. Has Yu Xiaogang already forgotten Bibi Dong?]
[Not Little Witch: Sure enough, Yu Xiaogang is a complete scumbag. Pah!]
[Bibi Dong: I told you not to associate him with me!]
