C3 Who Is the Weakest?!

"Bro, this is our home. We're not leaving," Qin Luoyao said firmly.

Leaving would mean backing down. Was she really afraid of these kids? Besides, these ruthless kids dared to beat someone to death—definitely a lack of upbringing!

"But..." Qin Yuxiao hesitated, looking uncertain.

While Qin Luoyao was unconscious, he had thought long and hard before deciding they should leave. Here, he couldn't ensure her safety, and he didn't want his sister to live in such an unhappy place forever.

"No buts, bro. Trust me, from now on, I'll make sure you don't have to worry!" Qin Luoyao's voice was clear and melodious, filled with determination.

Qin Yuxiao was momentarily stunned, looking at Qin Luoyao. Something seemed different, yet her familiar face showed no change.

"Yao..." This version of Qin Luoyao left Qin Yuxiao feeling a bit lost. He felt something was off, and when he tried to speak, the words got stuck in his throat.

"Bro, my chest hurts," Qin Luoyao said, pouting slightly, her brow furrowed in apparent discomfort.

Seeing this, Qin Yuxiao's heart leaped with concern.

"Yao, are you okay? Don't scare your brother!" Qin Yuxiao immediately used his water magic, enveloping Qin Luoyao in a gentle, soothing aura.

Qin Luoyao felt a warm, comforting energy surrounding her, much like Qin Yuxiao himself. Her whole body relaxed, and the pain in her chest eased significantly.

Her eyes flickered with realization. Was she considered useless without psychic force? Unable to use magic or spiritual cultivation? This must be magic, right? How fascinating. Was there anything in this world Qin Luoyao couldn't do? No, there shouldn't be. No, there mustn't be.

The small fireball Yang Qing had launched struck Qin Luoyao directly in the chest. Her body, already fragile, couldn't withstand it, leading to her demise. Now reborn, she still endured the physical pain. Qin Yuxiao used water elements to heal her, significantly easing her discomfort and improving the wound on her chest.

Sunlight lazily spilled into the yard, which was simply arranged without any unnecessary decorations. It appeared plain but was clean and tidy. This was Qin Luoyao's home, a modest courtyard. Due to the family's poverty, the home seemed insignificant, yet with Qin Yuxiao there, he held up the sky for Qin Luoyao and supported the family.

Qin Luoyao lay in bed for a day and a night. With the water element's healing and her strong recovery ability, she was able to get up. She looked around the familiar yet unfamiliar room and walked outside, observing the simple, tidy courtyard bathed in lazy sunlight.

Qin Luoyao stepped into the sunlight, feeling its warm embrace spread throughout her body, bringing great comfort. This was the past; the air was truly clean. She took a deep breath, relaxing her body, and then walked out with ease. Everything was familiar, and she wouldn't get lost.

"We heard the boss say that finishing her off would be a mercy, a blessing for that little nobody. Qin Yuxiao, you should stop overestimating yourself and seeking justice!"

"Yeah, if she survives this time, we'll just beat her again next time. You better keep your useless sister hidden away, ha!"

"Don't come out and scare people. Just stay in your shabby house forever!"

The mocking voices at the door caught Qin Luoyao's attention, and she walked over. There, at the entrance, stood four men dressed as servants, surrounding Qin Yuxiao. They hurled insults without hesitation, using Qin Luoyao's name to ridicule and belittle Qin Yuxiao.

However, Qin Yuxiao didn't argue back. He clenched his fists, struggling to hold back his anger. The Yang family was the most powerful force in town, and crossing them could spell trouble for both him and Yao. For Yao's sake and to keep the peace, Qin Yuxiao chose to remain silent. He wasn't someone who liked to stir up trouble.

Yet, it was precisely Qin Yuxiao's silence that emboldened those who bullied Qin Luoyao. They became more brazen, showing no restraint. Despite Qin Yuxiao's efforts to protect her, it was all in vain.

"Alright, our master said he doesn't want to see you or that 'useless' person for the next month. You know what to do, right?" A servant sneered at Qin Yuxiao, looking down his nose with an air of superiority.

"Yao is not useless!" Qin Yuxiao retorted, clenching his fists. Insult him all they wanted, but he wouldn't tolerate any slander against Yao.

"Not useless? Hahaha!" The four servants burst into laughter, as if they'd heard the funniest joke. "Someone without psychic force hasn't appeared in thousands of years! Still think she's not useless? Or maybe you're just as useless? Haha!"

That's how people are—stronger ones bully the weaker. But just because someone is weaker, does it truly mean they're weak?
