If someone is a little better than you, you will envy him, want to catch up with him, or even be jealous of him. But if there is someone who is much stronger than you, this emotion will naturally turn into admiration and a trace of indescribable admiration.
Yes.
Yao Dou put himself in his shoes and thought about it. If it were him, even if he faced Luo Chunqiu's pressure at that time, he would not be able to break through the realm and become a powerful person at the heaven-level.
Not even reaching the Heavenly level, even breaking through to the Grandmaster realm has already made Yao Dou feel that a bottleneck is coming, and he has been unable to take that step. And even if he had the same talent as Lu Li and broke through to the level of a celestial being before the battle, would he have the courage to fight against such a terrifying enemy
These are all unknowns.
At least Yao Dou knew how much he weighed. Even if he was given heaven-level strength, it would be difficult for him to muster any fighting spirit in the face of that terrifying monster.
This is what Lu Li called 'lack of training'.
Without the experience of life and death, no matter how strong you are, your mood will collapse at critical moments. So now Yao Dou has completely given up on the idea of competing with Lu Li, and instead has a subtle feeling of placing his hopes on Lu Li.
Upon hearing Yao Dou's question, Dong Ao did not answer immediately.
He had also witnessed the battle between Lu Li and Huang, and knew how terrifying the enemy that young man faced now was. Even Su Lao had never put such strong pressure on him, not to mention that this was just a picture of the divine religion reflected on the zenith through special means.
If he faced Huang directly, could he really muster up the courage to punch him
Even though he knew that this was a question destined to have no answer, Dong Ao still couldn't help but think about it. If he faced Huang, even if he was given heaven-level combat power, would he be able to do better than Lu Li
Sighing softly in his heart, Dong Ao said slowly: "Whether we can win or not is still unknown. But I believe that he will never lose."
Yao Dou was slightly startled.
He didn't seem to expect that Dong Ao would answer like this.
But Dong Ao continued: "Because he has a belief that none of us have. As long as this belief exists, he will never lose. No matter how strong the opponent is, I believe in him... He will stand up again and again. , until you defeat the other party.”
"So, someone has already faced the most difficult battle on our behalf. What we need to do is not to let his efforts go in vain."
Having said this, Yao Dou heard a sound like a tiger roaring and a dragon roaring from his body, and he looked forward. Most of the casual cultivators who had been killed by the butcher were still pouring towards the old street.
The moving heads almost formed a wave. Instead of decreasing, the number of people increased.
Yao Dou looked forward, gritted his teeth and said, "When did the Imperial Capital have so many realms of immortality?"
Dong Ao smiled and did not answer the slightly angry words. With a step, he leaped up and punched the surging crowd!
The fist intention is as bright as the rising sun, shining through the darkness!
…
"So, you want me to help him with my sword?"
In a remote town in the Holy Kingdom of Qianyou, a slovenly man sitting in the corner of a gambling house raised his head and spoke in a casual tone, looking at the man in green shirt standing in front of him.
"I'm not asking you to help him, I'm asking you to help yourself. Junior brother, it's been so many years and you still refuse to take that step?"
The man in green shirt is naturally Gu Haoran.
His tone was a little helpless, but also a little heartbroken.
Because the sloppy man sitting in front of him was his second junior brother.
The genius who was once hailed as the strongest swordsman, in front of him, even Snow Lord Lu Yu was on the verge of being held back, but he faded away at the most glorious moment, and now he has fallen into this state.
"Take that step? Is it necessary?"
The sloppy man held a long object wrapped in a strip of cloth in his arms. The strip was covered with dirt and oil stains, almost condensing into a large piece.
But he didn't care at all, and said with a smile: "Senior brother, the person you know is dead, and now I am a bad gambler. Who do you want me to kill with my sword? Kill this thousand-dollar banker in the gambling house , or kill those thugs in the back alley who like to rob gamblers the most?"
"My sword is no longer useful."
The man laughed and said, "It's my junior brother who has never been masked before. I wanted to tease him and use the Peach Blossom Sword to defraud him of some drinking money, but I didn't expect that he actually became a celestial being first. Then I The Peach Blossom Sword is of little use to him."
Hearing the man's words, a trace of sadness appeared in Gu Haoran's eyes. Back then, he had promised Lu Li that as long as he worked hard on practicing swordsmanship, he would meet his second senior brother sooner or later.
However, Lu Li himself probably never imagined that his second senior brother, who had never been masked before, would become like this.
"You left my sword mark with him. Could it be that it's only today?"
Suddenly, the sloppy man's laughter stopped abruptly, with a strange expression on his face.
Although he looked slovenly and depressed, his eyes were very bright, like stars, making people afraid to look directly at them.
Gu Haoran sighed: "I thought that by giving him the sword mark, you would sense his talent sooner or later, which might interest you a bit."
"Forget it, senior brother."
The sloppy man sneered: "You and I have known each other for many years and know each other's tempers and personalities very well. Don't I know who you are? If you hadn't seen something in his future, you wouldn't have put such a big stake in him. .What, did you see him saving the world?"
When he said the last sentence, the man's tone became a little sarcastic.
"No, you're wrong."
Gu Haoran shook his head: "I saw him destroy a whole world with one sword."
The slovenly man's eyes moved, as if his sword energy was surging, but then fell silent instantly. "Really? It seems now that he has understood the true essence of the God-Slaying Sword."
"You really don't plan to help?" Gu Haoran felt the sword energy that burst out at that moment, and said with a strange face.
"Get out of here, I don't even have the appetite to drink anymore when I see you." The sloppy man waved his hand impatiently, asking Gu Haoran to leave as if to drive away bad luck.
But a smile appeared on Gu Haoran's face, and he nodded: "I still have a few places to go. Since my junior brother agreed, I won't bother you for now."
After saying that, he turned around and took a step, as if he was afraid that the other party would regret it and left the place directly.
The sloppy man was stunned. He originally wanted to say, 'Who agreed?', but before he could say this, Gu Haoran had already disappeared.
This caused half of his words to get stuck in his throat, which made him feel uncomfortable. Finally, he muttered: "Son of a bitch."
"Gambler, do you want to play today?"
Suddenly, a rogue walked up to him, holding a piece of money in his hand, and said in a teasing tone: "I won a little bit more today, do you want me to try my luck with you? As the old rule is, nine out of nine and thirteen out?"
If it had been the original time, the sloppy man would have shown a flattering smile at this moment, nodded and taken the money in his hand, rushed to the gambling table on a rolling crawl, lost all the money, and then received a punch.
Because he is very durable, submissive and has no temper. Apart from looking a little strange holding a stick wrapped in rags all day long, he is simply the favorite 'guest' of the gangsters. No matter what troubles he encounters, as long as he punches and kicks him, no matter how angry he is, he will be gone.
"I don't know who is reflecting the sky outside. Strong men are fighting, and they are talking about destroying the world. It's so damn unlucky. I'm in a bad mood now. If I just take the money and get beaten, nothing will happen. Understand?"
But today, when the rogue saw that this die-hard gambler remained silent, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed, so he stepped forward and planned to hit him in the face with the money.
However, before he could take a step, he saw the normally submissive gambler suddenly raise his head, and in those bright eyes, it seemed as if there were stars flickering, bursting out with extremely dazzling light.
"roll."
He glanced at the rogue, who was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, and then uttered a word in a cold voice.
The ruffian was immediately furious and wanted to say harsh words, but for some reason, looking at the other person's eyes, he couldn't say a word. He cursed in a low voice and left in despair.
