Chapter 63 Strictly speaking, Li You is a good person, although he and his brother live in a rather...
Strictly speaking, Li You is a good person. Although he and his brother both live in an unhealthy family, their personalities are completely different.
The relationship between them was incredibly complex. Did they have feelings for each other? Absolutely. Their mutual dependence under their father's twisted control was a bond that few could overcome, but that didn't stop Li You's brother from disliking him.
It wasn't hatred, but jealousy. This jealousy began to twist and deform. As everyone started to favor his brother, he was like a balloon about to burst. With the slightest manipulation, everything became irreparable.
After the god awoke, the two brothers experienced the happiest period of their lives, a period they would never have again, neither before nor after.
They escaped from that suffocating place. They didn't kill their father, for Li You because he couldn't bear to, and for the older brother because he was afraid that God would find out that his intentions were not pure.
They quickly awakened their supernatural abilities. With the help of the gods, their abilities were much stronger than those of ordinary people, but the older brother could never compare to the younger brother.
His superpowers were never that strong, but that didn't matter; he didn't have any other thoughts at the moment.
But sometimes people change. In this era of spiritual revival, talent is always more important than hard work.
As time went on, the team, which originally consisted of only three people, began to grow, and his younger brother's abilities grew stronger along with the team's growth. However, the older brother's abilities were stuck at the first step.
God told him that his limit was reached, but He would continue to help him find something that would allow him to break through.
As their gap widened, the distance between them seemed to grow ever greater.
Although God's attitude toward him remained unchanged, they found it increasingly difficult to meet. Due to the disparity in their strength, they could not fight side by side, and he could no longer stand with his brother and God; instead, he was replaced by one new person after another.
Because he was never the one who was loved, what he longed for most was to be valued.
But now that's gone, and he's drifting further and further away from them. His brother is trying hard to ease this awkward situation.
So he took the initiative to go to the logistics department to manage the team's affairs. Sure enough, he handled these matters very well, and he felt happy to hear their praise.
He no longer pursued power as much, and in the process, he also met two of his admirers.
So God granted him authority to manage most of the subsequent affairs, and he indeed managed them very well.
"Little brother!" Finally, he saw Li You one day; they hadn't seen each other for a long time. The younger brother, who was called out to, froze.
He slowly turned his head around, gave an awkward smile, and his expression was a little stiff.
"Brother, what a coincidence! I have something to do, so I'll be going now."
The older brother frowned; he couldn't believe he had so much to do. Besides, he hadn't seen him for two months.
The doctor knew exactly why this was happening. Li You was like a tree, a tree that was growing strong, while his brother was like the weeds under his tree, resenting that the tree was blocking his sunlight, yet having to hide in the tree's shadow when the scorching sun came.
Li You felt both guilty and suffocated. After being exposed to the sunlight above, he couldn't wait to get rid of the weeds that were sucking his blood, but he couldn't bring himself to do it. He hesitated and missed the best opportunity. He felt guilty and longed for freedom at the same time.
So he was running away, and his brother was a burden to him.
With the conclusion of this conversation, the relationship between the two brothers can be said to have broken down.
With the added fuel to the fire by the two people around the brother, the situation has reached a fever pitch.
——-----————--
*Smack!* The older brother was slapped hard to the ground by the god. He got up and coughed up a mouthful of blood, showing that the slap was quite severe.
God's eyes darkened slightly. This was the first time his brother had ever seen God with this expression. He knew this was his bottom line, but now he had crossed it.
"Why? You agreed to do human experiments with these people!"
The older brother hurriedly got up, saying, "No, this...it's them...I've been tricked."
"Ha, how could these people have gone there without your orders? Don't tell me you were fooled; I know everything. This was just a deal between you and them!" God ignored his excuses, because he had investigated everything thoroughly. He hadn't originally intended to doubt him...
All the older brother could do was remain silent.
“From now on we will separate. The upper echelons of this country are beyond redemption, and you will remain here. Since you are so eager to please them.” God had already turned away.
"Do you think I wanted this? What could I do? Look at those angry people, they're the ones who caused this trouble! I have to give them an explanation. It's just a matter of sacrificing a few people to protect the rest, isn't that the best solution?"
The older brother also felt wronged. He believed he had a reason for doing so; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to stay there peacefully. He had already made what he considered the optimal solution, which was why he sent the person away.
God stopped, a mocking smile, or rather, a disdainful one, appearing on his face. "The best solution? Have you forgotten that I only put you in charge of the organization? What gives you the right to make decisions on your own? And why do you think I can't handle these things? And guess why they chose you for this? Because they value you? How could that be? They just think you're easy to manipulate. What public anger that needs appeasement? What public? Just a bunch of fools fanned by higher-ups. Do you think they'd actually reveal the human experimentation? They just gave you a little power and you're already feeling high and mighty?"
"You're nothing but a fool. You've spent your whole life being carried around by others."
So he turned and left without hesitation.
The older brother seemed somewhat lost and disoriented. The door opened, and Ah Shui stepped forward to help him up, her eyes filled with heartache. In her eyes, the person in front of her was the best person.
Meanwhile, the person hiding elsewhere breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally, we've driven him away. Things will be much easier now."
Then he stepped forward unhurriedly and asked, "Are you alright... Chief?" His last two words exploded in their ears like a thunderclap.
Ah Shui was the first to react, "Black Robe, what do you mean! You were the one who instigated him last time! Why? Or who exactly are you?" Ah Shui's intelligence was still online at the moment, but usually his mind was focused on this older brother.
The man in black robes was surprised for a moment, then said smugly, "You're really something, reacting so quickly. Let me introduce myself, I'm the Führer's younger brother, and also your future superior."
Ah Shui's face was grim; at this point, how could they not see that they had been tricked?
"Don't look at me like that. After all, this isn't a bad thing for you. I really mean the leader. What you need to do now is keep all the ability users who haven't left yet. The rest of them will all be your future subordinates. After all, with your strong abilities, it shouldn't be difficult for you to rebuild this organization."
On that day, God led his members to officially separate, and their organization went from heroes to wanted criminals.
And the fact that Li You's brother became the leader of the national superpower organization is just too much of a coincidence.
God was so powerful that no one could defeat Him, so they actually fared better after their separation, and even the rumors and gossip disappeared.
As the gods grew stronger, they finally discovered that the man-eating monsters and the culprits causing pollution were the cracks in the sky.
Now, as long as we can find a way to repair these cracks, there won't be so many disasters. Everyone is overjoyed, feeling that everything was worthwhile and that it's all coming to an end.
Just when things were going well for them, Li You's brother approached him.
"Brother, I'm begging you, I really want to come back. I'm not doing well there. I promise you, if you give this to the chief, I will never come looking for you again," the older brother pleaded.
Li You hesitated for a moment. He opened the object and found it was for God. It was a letter that, in short, informed them that they had obtained something that could enhance a person's superpowers and wanted to buy it back. This was not surprising to Li You. His brother's superpowers had stagnated for many years without any progress. Perhaps his superpowers were too weak to convince others. It was nothing unusual.
He sighed. "Brother, you don't need to do this anymore. Superpowers won't matter anymore. God has discovered the reason why our world has become like this. God will repair it. All of our superpowers will disappear. Even if you become stronger now, it won't be long before we all become ordinary people again."
Li You's brother's face stiffened. "Ah, is that so? It's alright... You just need to give it to him." Then he fled in a panic.
He muttered, "Ordinary people? Ordinary people! Ordinary people! How could I be willing to go back to being an ordinary person!" In fact, he was doing very well in the organization because the black robe gave him momentum, and he never wanted to take off this feeling of being superior.
"Don't blame me, I just didn't want to live that kind of hard life anymore. Originally... I didn't want to do it."
He returned to the base, and they were all surprised to see his disheveled appearance.
Ah Shui took out a towel and helped him tidy up. "If you don't want to hurt them, we won't do it. After all, they are your benefactor and your brother."
The man in the black robe glanced at him casually, not expecting immediate success, since this man had always been so hesitant. But it didn't matter; he always had a way. However, his next sentence surprised him.
"No! We're going to make our move in a few days. I know of a fantastic opportunity."
