Yasuo's heart finally calmed down, and guilt and uneasiness filled his heart again, but the joy of meeting his brother again still made him very excited. But just when he wanted to touch his brother, he saw his brother take a step back, making it impossible for him to touch his hand.

This was absolutely impossible in the past. His brother was a very gentle person. Although he was unwilling to admit it, his brother's temper would also become worse when he was with him. But he would only slapped his hand off in disgust, instead of not even letting him touch it like he is now.

In other words, he really hated me.

Lost and guilt made him lower his head and dare not look at his brother, because he also felt that the things that constantly suppressed his heart had temporarily left him, and his brother was here to help him. But he hated him so much that it made him feel conflicted and uneasy. He didn't know whether he could get his brother's understanding, and he didn't know why his brother became like this.

Not human.

"How did you become like this..."

He asked, his tone full of loss and anxiety.

"Yazakana, I was unable to believe me in the world of the dead. And so many of my fellow disciples were killed by you, so I developed resentment against you that you could not imagine. And you later betrayed the glory and let your mother endure such humiliation and hardship, which made me unable to help but want to kill you. Do you know that after we all died, you are already the only disciple of Elder Suma and the only son of our mother! But what have you done!"

Yongen's words were full of resentment. He looked at Yasuo as if he was looking at an enemy.

He could have left this world peacefully and left this world where he had been working hard. He quietly followed the Fox Fairy to go to the other side and waited for the second year of Zhan Spring Festival to meet his mother. However, his unwillingness to be killed by Yasuo made him attracted by Xiexian. At that time, the world relived the scene of being killed by Raast and the unwillingness that only Yasuo survived.

But even so, he would not say much, because Yasuo was his younger brother. Although their brothers disliked each other since childhood, if they were not brothers, they would have become enemies long ago, but he was willing to give his life for his brother. Moreover, after his death, he finally understood why he hated Yasuo, because he was essentially as proud as Yasuo, but Yasuo had a talent that he could not catch up with.

He longed for Elder Suma because it was Elder Suma who helped their orphans and widows to live, and taught them how to learn martial arts, teach them the principles of being a human being, and protect the village when they were weak. So he longed to be a person like Elder Suma and to become a person that Elder Suma and his mother could be proud of. So he worked harder and successfully obtained these things.

However, Yasuo appeared. When the man appeared in their house, Yongen even had the idea of ​​living in Elder Suma forever, or finding a temple to work as a handyman, because he did not want to disturb his mother's happiness because of his own reasons. But his mother left him behind, allowing him to have a place in his new family. Elder Suma accepted him as his disciple greatly reduced the difficulties of their family. Yongen originally thought that they would live happily in the future.

But the man left after leaving Yasuo!

While he and his mother were trying their best to maintain this family, the man left behind the hungry Yasuo and left! This irresponsible behavior made the already miserable family fall directly on the verge of collapse. His mother tried every possible way to support their brothers, but a weak woman was simply a fool to support two children. If it weren't for Elder Suma's help, Yongen felt that the end of his family would not be very good.

This made Yongen pay great attention to responsibility, but he did not see these in Yasuo. He only saw a bastard who was exactly the same as the man who abandoned his wife and children!

Fighting, stealing things, not caring about living at home, only knowing how to be lazy when practicing swordsmanship, always making my mother cry and sad.

Yasuo enjoyed the peaceful life they had worked hard, but did not treat him well. Instead, he felt it was natural, exactly the same as his father! But his talent was terrible and he was a natural swordsman. He easily learned the sword skills that others needed to study hard to master. Without hard training, he could have physical fitness beyond ordinary people. Even the extremely difficult wind-controlling sword technique was as easy as he could learn it.

This made Yongen extremely jealous.

He was jealous of Yasuo not having to worry about life, because there were a lot of people who were worried about him, and he was jealous of Yasuo's talent. Although his talent and strength were outstanding, there was no doubt that it was achieved by ordinary people who worked hard several times. He hated Yasuo because he was obviously his younger brother, but his strength was far superior to his elder brother.

But Yasuo had nothing to do, and he had everything. He did not put in so much effort and gained strength beyond himself.

But he has always hidden his jealousy because he is his elder brother, and...

He actually likes Yasuo very much, whether it is his innocence when he was playing with him, his ruthlessness when he was maintaining his mother's reputation, or he often brought some prey to improve his life. Or he was reluctant to practice swords under his own pressure, to change his bad habits when he was bad, and his increasingly strong strength brought changes to his family, and the smile on his mother's face.

Most importantly, although Yasuo became increasingly unruly, he gradually became reliable, unlike his father, who was an irresponsible person. Although he would never like his overly ostentatious personality, the fact that Yasuo gradually became a man still made him feel relieved.

He felt that his jealousy would slowly hide in his heart until he compressed and became thoroughly sensible, and understood their efforts and efforts, and completely replaced him as the day when he became the pride of Elder Suma and his mother.

At that time, he might have given up his burden and revealed his pure swordsman side, and truly compete with his younger brother.

However, everything changed. After being killed by Raast, he thought Yasuo would stand up strongly, take on the honor of the temple on behalf of himself and those dead comrades, take the main brigades of their family, and take good care of his mother, so that his mother can have a stable old age.

But what did he see in Xiexian?

A bastard who even had a knife in a urinal and peeed, drinking all day long, letting his mother do everything, and living in his own life, living in a drunken and dreaming way at home?! A bastard who ignores the pain of his master, and the expectations of others, is immersed in his own sorrow, but dare not take this responsibility?! Even a waste who is possessed by Yazakana, is just trying to escape!

A waste, exactly the same as his father who abandoned his wife and children!

Did I sacrifice everything just to keep you, the waste, alive?!

This is something that Yongen cannot tolerate, because his sense of responsibility makes him unable to ignore such things at all, and he cannot tolerate his life in the end that he only gets a waste to survive. And he can only watch this waste destroy everything he cherishes, and let everything he works for disappear after his death.

He wants to see his mother spend the rest of his life happily, and he wants to see Elder Suma laughing out loud for the achievements of every disciple. He wants to see his incompetent brother become a man who stands tall and is in charge of the people. So he cannot die, and he must not just watch all this. He must be able to act, return to the human world, and must be able to have enough power!

Therefore, after being forced to be attacked by Yazakana, Yongen accepted all this calmly, and his heart was shrouded by hatred and unwillingness. He began to wander on the land of Ionia, chasing Yasuo and the information of the monsters that killed him. In the process, he slowly regained his reason, and after seeing the power of the void, he completely woke up. His eyes were no longer completely shrouded by hatred, and he found his brother's trace.

Repressing the murderous intent in his heart and the crazy laughter of Yazarkana in his body, Yongen endured the urge to kill his younger brother, because he saw that his younger brother was not helpless.

There was still honor in his heart, but he did not dare to face his past mistakes. He was like a child and longed for someone to suddenly stand up to help him solve everything, just like his former self, his mother, and Elder Suma.

He is still like a child, his life is so smooth. He has considered so much for him, but he has no idea of ​​this responsibility at all.

Because I was gone, Elder Suma became old and his mother became old.

Yasuo, you must learn how to take on your own responsibilities. Whether it is your own resentment or your unwillingness, although you don’t want to die and your jealousy for Yasuo, but...

"I have accepted my current self, Yasuo, my strength comes from my hatred for you. But I will not kill you, because now you can only take care of our mothers, and rebuild the temple of Elder Suma. You must shoulder this responsibility, because no one except you can do this."

After hearing this, Yasuo subconsciously wanted to escape. The deaths of so many people, and even his brother died because of his decision, made him dare not believe in his cognition and judgment anymore. He was afraid that after he made another judgment, he would kill all his remaining relatives and respected people, so that he could only completely be alone in the world and never have a place to go.

He was afraid of becoming a wind that would never have a place to live.

He dodged Yongen's gaze and did not dare to look at Yongen's expression.

"I have made a big mistake and am already a sinner. I am not qualified to do those things. Now everyone wants to kill me to cleanse Elder Suma's shame, and I... I think it's better for me to die in their hands. Only in this way can the shame of Elder Suma be cleaned... because I killed you..."

Yasuo gritted his teeth and said the truest words in his heart, because that's what he felt. If he was wronged and if no one listened to his excuse, he would run away and constantly find the real murderer. But the mistake was his, and his enemies were also unbeatable for him. The pride of the wind sword technique that he could not even wipe out the other party's skin. He would definitely not be able to defeat him after practicing for decades.

So he might as well die.

This Yasuo made Yongen really want to kill him and kill this cowardly waste, but Yasuo's grief for their death made him feel a warm current in his heart. The rare affection between brothers flowed into their hearts at this moment. However, neither of them would admit this, nor would they believe this. Yasuo had no shame to see Yongen, especially after knowing why Yongen came back, he now just wanted to dive into the soil and act as if he did not exist.

But Yongen understood that when he appeared and revealed his identity, he was destined to be awake, because just as he couldn't stand Yasuo, Yasuo couldn't stand him either. He always hated his brother for discipline as a son, and also hated him for using his own standards to demand him as a genius, and even more so he couldn't stand him taking all the responsibilities on his head, thus ignoring his own thoughts and actions.

So he knew that if he wanted to persuade Yasuo, he just needed to say another word.

"So, you gave up?"

“… Maybe I’m the one who’s wrong.”

"Have you ever been right?"

This sentence made Yasuo unable to help rub his nose and then raised his head.

"At least... I'm always right in swordsmanship."

Yongen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, because this was a fact that he had never been able to bear and the culprit of his jealousy, so he spoke mercilessly and sarcastically.

"Is that so? Then can you still hold your sword up now? Are you still proud of your sword?"

Yasuo looked down at the broken sword in his hand again. The broken sword kept trembling and roaring. The broken old friend was now calling himself, calling for the once energetic and self-conscious, who felt that the world was great, and that nothing could be done. The most important thing is that his heart was also calling for the former self, calling for his own rejuvenation.

He took a deep breath, and he knew that he could not be depressed anymore. His brother crawled back from hell for himself and cut off his connection with Yazakana if he continued to fall...

"I never deny that I'm better than you."

Then don’t you admit that you are worse than this bastard brother?

"Damn it."

Yongen snorted lightly, he retracted the sword back into the sheath, and then his figure disappeared without a trace. The next time he appeared, he had already appeared on the only remaining tree.

Yasuo hurriedly ran two steps, caught up with his brother, and finally asked with some hesitation.

"They all say that only fools believe me and still have hope. You just believe that I will not continue to fall? After all, you beat me hard."

Yongen did not reply, his figure completely disappeared in a cloud of fog. When Yasuo turned around and left in disappointment, a sakura petal blew past him with the wind, bringing Yongen's voice.

"Maybe only fools will believe that you still have hope."

A petal fell into Yasuo's hands.

“But I believe.”

Yasuo smiled, threw away the petals in his hand, sat in front of Yongen's tomb, picked up the already disastrous roast chicken and wine, and left the place with great strides. When he left, Xiexian slowly walked out of the cherry blossom woods, and smiled at Yongen's tombstone.
