Chapter 116 - Chapter 116 Watching Yu Xiaogang Truly Become a Clown

"That's right, since none of you dare to speak, then I will!"

"You are all happy that our World will have a new God in the future, that a Child of Destiny has been born for our World, but in my opinion, the greatest misfortune of our World lies precisely in this!"

Someone, after drinking heartily, cried out urgently.

Although his voice was not loud,

at this moment, it could be said to be deafening, every word profound.

Coupled with the heavenly curtain zooming in on this scene,

the man's remarks were clearly transmitted to the ears of all the gossipers on the Douluo Continent.

When these words fell,

it was truly no exaggeration to say that they stirred up a thousand waves with one stone.

It garnered the approval and agreement of countless people.

When Tang San heard this, he also found it extremely grating.

If looks could kill,

there was no doubt.

He would have long since sliced this guy into a thousand pieces.

But unfortunately, looks simply couldn't kill.

More importantly, even if looks couldn't kill, it didn't matter.

He couldn't even show any change in his expression compared to just now, couldn't show any jealousy.

Otherwise, he would only give others a handle.

So, this time, he could only forcefully suppress this anger back into his heart.

Turning his head, he even forced a smile and genuinely tried to comfort Ma Hongjun and the others.

He shamelessly claimed that what the heavenly curtain showed was definitely not the complete story.

His future self must have had an unspeakable reason for not taking Ma Hongjun's wife with him when ascending to the God Realm.

Of course, that was all in the past.

Since they were starting over this time,

he would definitely make up for his regrets and absolutely not let similar things happen again.

Tang San spoke with conviction, and the more he spoke this time, the more serious his expression became.

Seeing his demeanor, before Ma Hongjun, who had just been upset, could speak again,

Yu Xiaogang, who had been silent since he first spoke, couldn't hold back and took the initiative to speak, offering his own view.

"Cough cough, actually, this matter isn't entirely bad news. There's still good news."

"Good news?"

"What good news could there possibly be?"

Seeing his confident look, Ning Rongrong naturally grew curious and immediately turned to ask again.

"Grandmaster, are you still trying to defend Tang San at this point? Have you forgotten that regarding this ascension to the God Realm, not only did he not take Ma Hongjun's family, but it also had absolutely nothing to do with you? From beginning to end, let alone ascending to the God Realm, you didn't even touch the threshold of a Titled Douluo?"

As she spoke, remembering something, she half-teasingly and half-kindly reminded Yu Xiaogang again.

It was important to remember that the heavenly curtain was still broadcasting the scene live.

Hearing her say this, the gossipers naturally burst into laughter.

They roared with laughter, saying,

"Haha, that's too much! This Ning Rongrong speaks too honestly, doesn't she? She's really stabbing this Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang right in the lungs with every word."

"Too ruthless."

Some people's first reaction was to feel that Ning Rongrong's attack was too strong, and they felt a little sorry for Yu Xiaogang.

Of course, this kind of pity was only among a minority.

Others, seeing this, all expressed indifference, scoffing and saying,

"Ruthless? I think it's alright, I even think Ning Rongrong is giving Yu Xiaogang face by saying this."

"Yes, if I remember correctly, in the end, this Yu Xiaogang didn't just fail to reach Titled Douluo, he didn't even touch the threshold of the Spirit Saint realm, did he?"

"Ning Rongrong saying that is really giving this Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang a lot of credit."

"To be fair, that's true. And this Yu Xiaogang is still defending Tang San here, do you think he's stupid?"

"Stupid?"

"I think he's incredibly smart, actually. At this critical juncture, what other choice does he have besides clinging tightly to Tang San?"

"But I think he's likely to end up with nothing again. With Tang San's double-standard personality, he wouldn't even bring Ma Hongjun's wife, so how could he bring a useless Grandmaster like him?"

"Who cares, he won't bring me anyway, I'll just watch for fun."

"Indeed, I don't care what happens next, I'm just really amused right now."

The Douluo Continent's group of gossipers, seeing this through the heavenly curtain, all erupted into a frenzy.

Gathered together this time, seeing Yu Xiaogang again, they couldn't stop laughing.

For a time, the air was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

Infected by this atmosphere,

everyone's expressions towards Yu Xiaogang subtly changed again this time.

It was no longer just simple hostility or contempt.

Instead, it subtly carried a hint of closeness.

The reason for this reaction,

besides the unavoidable feeling of pity and sympathy for Yu Xiaogang's current predicament, was more importantly that their perception of Xiaogang had subtly changed.

Originally, they thought he was a Grandmaster who had gained fame by deceit, a swindler.

But now, many people regarded Yu Xiaogang as a complete jester.

They clearly enjoyed seeing Yu Xiaogang's discomfited expression on the heavenly curtain.

However, this kind of closeness was clearly not what the self-important Yu Xiaogang desired.

Precisely because of this,

after sensing the change in everyone's gazes, Yu Xiaogang not only felt no surprise,

but his complexion instead turned ashen.

Lowering his head, he cursed himself repeatedly in his heart.

...

Damn it!

Does this Ning Rongrong even understand the art of language?

While the matter was indeed as she said,

was that how she should have said it?

...

If it weren't for the heavenly curtain watching him at this moment,

if he weren't mindful of Ning Rongrong's family power behind her,

and with a Level 96 Titled Douluo sitting beside him, glaring at him,

Yu Xiaogang would have truly wanted to make a move and properly teach this rude girl a lesson.

But unfortunately,

there was no such option as "if" in this World.

Thinking this,

Yu Xiaogang sighed softly in his heart.

Naturally, he felt extremely displeased.

However, displeasure aside,

after so many years of trials and tribulations,

Yu Xiaogang had not made absolutely no progress.

So, even though he was unhappy in his heart this time, he didn't show it on his face at all.

After two coughs, he replied earnestly, saying,

"Cough cough, you misunderstood, the good news I spoke of is not this."

"It's the matter of Tang San finally becoming a God itself."

"The matter of becoming a God… itself?" Ning Rongrong was greatly surprised. "How is that good news? It's certainly good news for Tang San, but not for you."

In fact, it wasn't just her.

The surrounding crowd also snapped back to attention and cast curious glances at him.

And seeing everyone's reaction,

Yu Xiaogang, instead of panicking, revealed an expression of having everything under control and replied unhurriedly,

"That may not be the case."

"You all saw the preview clips given by the heavenly curtain before."

"Even without the heavenly curtain's intervention, in the future, we and Spirit Hall would inevitably become adversaries, clashing in battle."

"Under such circumstances, Tang San still being able to become a God, what does that mean? Does it still need to be said?"
