Jiang Yantian The corners of his mouth curled up into a mocking arc.
"Yang Xiao is indeed a genius, and one that everyone expects."
"Among the senior brothers, as long as there is a distinction between right and wrong in something involving him, I will always be the one who is identified and punished in the end."
"No matter what opportunity or treasure I get, I will eventually find a way to deliver it to Yang Xiao."
"It's a beautiful name: make the best use of everything to help the sect's future."
"Several times, Master would forcibly order me to hand over the opportunities I found to him after all the hard work and narrow escapes, as long as they were suitable for him."
His tone was slightly aggravated. "Not only do you want me to hand over the opportunity, but you also reprimand me, saying that I have an unstable mind and am greedy for external things."
"Say I'm delusional about things that don't belong to me!"
Qiong Yu Hearing this, his beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly.
Stealing opportunities from disciples and then reprimanding them in return?
This goes beyond the scope of preference and is almost paranoid and unfair.
Jiang Yantian looked at the subtle changes in Qiong Yu's expression and understood.
He continued, "But that was my opportunity, and I paid for it with my life."
"They forced me to give it to him and humiliated me, as if my existence was to set off his shine and support him."
He paused and his voice became even lower. "These days lasted for a long, long time."
"It took so long that I started to wonder, what exactly did I do wrong? Why did everyone treat me like this?"
"Senior brother can humiliate me at will, senior sister can trample on me at will, and master despises me."
"And Yang Xiao will always be the group favorite protected by everyone."
"What about him? He always comes to me and says some good things to me in a pretense, and advises me to be more open-minded and not to worry about it."
"It is said that we are all from the same sect and the same, but in fact, every sentence contains a hint of sarcasm, and every word is mocking my incompetence and my lack of knowledge!"
"As long as I show a little bit of dissatisfaction or try to make an excuse, other senior brothers and sisters will immediately jump out and angrily scold me."
"Call me a white-eyed wolf, say Yang Xiao is all for my own good, say I am so ungrateful and ignorant!"
Qiong Yu Hearing this, those cold beautiful eyes widened slightly involuntarily.
Although she has a cold temperament, she does not like worldly affairs.
But I have been in charge of the Yuanhao Immortal Sect for many years and have seen countless people.
The situation described by Jiang Yantian is more than simple partiality and injustice.
It is a kind of systematic group exclusion.
Coupled with external suppression and moral kidnapping.
Put a disciple in a situation where everyone can step on him and step on him as a matter of course!
"You can bear it?" Qiong Yu couldn't help but asked.
There was a trace of concern in her voice that she was not even aware of.
Jiang Yantian turned his head and looked at Qiong Yu.
A complicated smile appeared on his face, "I can bear it."
"I've endured it for a long, long time."
"It's been so long that everyone feels that supporting him and stepping on me is natural and the most normal thing."
"In the eyes of everyone, I am like the dirt in the ground. I am humble and despicable. I am not even worthy of being angry with a genius."
"I was bullied and ridiculed by my classmates. In the eyes of others, that was even my good luck."
"Because, why doesn't he make fun of others, but why he makes fun of me? There must be something wrong with me, and he is trying to remind me!"
"!!!"
Qiong Yu's eyes were completely widened, and his beautiful face was filled with shock!
She could not imagine that within a sect, there could be such a twisted environment that trampled on the basic dignity of human nature.
This is no longer a celestial sect for spiritual cultivation.
Rather, it is a deformed place that rationalizes and even sanctifies bullying and favoritism!
Every sentence described by Jiang Yantian strikes upon her concept.
She looked at the man in front of her who was smiling but whose eyes were as deep as abyss.
For the first time, I had a strong resonance and desire to explore the stories he told me.
So what happened to him?
Qiong Yu's heart was deeply touched by this sudden story.
The story Jiang Yantian told did not end so abruptly.
What I want to say is actually just the beginning.
He held the tea cup again and took a sip gracefully.
"It was under such endless trampling over time that I finally went astray."
He put down the tea cup and tapped his fingers on the table. "I began to have extremely serious and uncontrollable revenge."
"Why should he be held in the palm of others' hands, be favored by thousands of people, and have a bright future? And I will be like a rat in the gutter or the dirt on the roadside."
"Just become his stepping stone, how many times do you have to be stepped on and spat on by everyone?"
"I'm not willing to give in."
Jiang Yantian smiled, "So, I started to frame him frequently and target him."
"Overtly and covertly, they used all possible means, even buying and selling murders."
Qiong Yu Hearing this, his heart sank slightly, but he did not judge immediately.
If you put yourself in someone else's shoes, if you were really in such a desperate situation and were pushed to the limit, how many people would be able to stay rational and not go to extremes?
She just looked at Jiang Yantian quietly, waiting for the next step.
"Of course!" Jiang Yantian smiled to himself, "Even if I go to the extreme and try my best to harm him."
"Even in the sect's small and large competitions, various well-designed traps are laid, hoping to make him embarrassed in public and fall from the altar."
"In the end, it's always me who makes a fool of myself."
"He is protected by his master, he is protected by the elders, he is protected by the sect leader, everyone is protecting him."
"Even if you meet a seemingly inconspicuous old man on the road, he may be his hidden protector."
"Always jump out to rescue him at critical moments, and suppress everything I arrange with my backhand."
"I have no choice, I can't kill him, I can't really take revenge, and I can't get even a shred of justice for myself!"
Qiong Yu heard this and couldn't help but pursed his lips slightly and asked, "Have you never thought about leaving?"
"Leave that sect, fly far away, and start over?"
Jiang Yantian nodded and said in a calm tone, "Of course I have thought about it, I have thought about it countless times, but I still can't reconcile myself to it!"
"Just running away in despair, like a lost dog?"
"Then what does everything I have endured in the past count? What does everything I have lost count?"
"If you are trampled on by others, and the end result is to leave, then the word justice is not a joke."
Jiang Yantian leaned forward slightly and looked at her. "But after many times of targeting, frame-up, and failure, the end has finally come."
"I disappeared, completely disappeared into that sect."
"After disappearing, everyone clapped their hands and cheered. Everyone spurned me and said that I should have gone away long ago. The cancer in our sect is finally gone."
"They are still brothers and sisters, enjoying each other happily, as if I never existed, or my existence is just an insignificant stain that can be easily erased."
"But I was actually beaten to death by one of his guardians and left in an unknown corner. My body rotted and no one took it away."
Qiong Yu's heart clenched with his words.
What a kind of desolation and despair.
"But!" Jiang Yantian changed the topic and a smile appeared on his face again, "I'm still back."
"You go back? They will still kill you!" Qiong Yu almost blurted out, with a faint worry.
"Of course!" Jiang Yantian smiled, but his tone was decisive. "But why not go back?"
"I can indeed choose to leave forever, once and for all, but I can't leave for the person I once was."
"Jiang Yantian, who was trampled, abused, and deprived of all dignity and hope, has died in that corner."
"The one who died was the simple and even stupid Jiang Yantian who only wanted to be treated as a normal person."
He slowly stood up, his whole body temperament suddenly changed.
A majestic aura that overwhelmed everything filled the air.
Although it was only for a moment, Qiong Yu was deeply shaken.
"And the person who came back is not that disciple Jiang Yantian, but Imperishable Devil Emperor."
"Imperishable Devil Emperor..." Qiong Yu's heart trembled suddenly!
This title is so familiar, so familiar!
Although I have never heard of it, it seems to be engraved deep in my soul.
