"Trash" had no value of existence. It has always been a true derogatory term since its invention.

There were many people in history who received this evaluation. For example, Zhao Kuo, who made theoretical discussion on paper, Second Qin Emperor Hu Hai, or Ah Dou of the Shu Kingdom were given the title of "Trash" by countless people.

However, not a lot of people had complex feelings towards the word "Trash" like Du Peng.

Once upon a time, this term was a counter-scale in Du Peng's life. He got angry whenever someone described him with that word, because there was one man who kept calling him this term day after day.

Du Peng wanted to kill the guy who always called him "Trash", which was Du Peng's older brother who had a certain blood relationship with him but never wanted to admit it.

The truth was unveiled little by little as time went by, and Du Peng was once again eager to hear the cold, arrogant, full of overlooking title, "Trash" when another picture that he would have imagined was revealed! Even if it was only once.

Du Peng looked up at the sky and prayed countless times when he was alone:I am willing todie immediately just to hear it again once more!

"Trash? Go die?"

Du Peng's fingers twitched a little and the simple words echoed in his mind. The voice seemed as if it had traveled across the great desolate era to the immemorial and transmitted faintly into his ears.

This tone is so familiar. I've heard this voice in my dreams countless times, one that is incomparably cold without any tender feelings... but I can feel the gentle care in the coldness after knowing the truth.

"What is this? Am I dreaming? Is this the voice of that bastard, Du Zhanpeng?"

The cold and determined voice passed through the cerebral cortex that was seriously injured and close to being gone. It activated the brain and nerves that had stopped temporarily operating.

The life-or-death pill slid down Du Peng's throat into his stomach. Du Peng's fingers twitched again and the cerebral cortex, which had almost stopped thinking, showed signs of activity again.Was the voice just now really that jerk Du Zhanpeng? I actually had such an illusion... what went into my stomach? Why is it so painful? My whole body is hurting. Right! I just got hit by God of Night... I'm really useless!

"Trash, are you dead yet? Open your eyes and let me see if you are not dead yet."

Is it that bastard Du Zhanpeng's voice again?Du Peng's finger twitched for the third time.Is it Qin Fen? Did he imitate that bastard's voice to stimulate me and wake me up?

"I haven't seen you for a few years and you've become even more of a waste! How do you still have the guts to be alive when you couldn't even win against the God of Night?"

Motherf*cker! What does me being alive have to do with you!?Du Peng's fingers twitched again, his body trembled and shook.Why is it so painful? My stomach hurts! It is even more painful than God of Night's attack! It feels as if a volcano is going to erupt! Is it... the life-or-death pill? My injuries are so severe that I needed to eat the life-or-death pill... so... does this mean that it failed?

So tired... I want to sleep, I am too tired. Qin Fen, thank you. Thank you for letting me hear my brother's voice again at this time. Brother... I want to say sorry to you, I want to call you 'brother' in front of you so badly. Don't you want to listen to me shouting? I really want to shout in front of you.

However, your younger brother is too useless. I took your strength, inherited everything of yours, and was still trash in the end. You are right, I am really trash. I couldn't even stop God of Night.

Sorry, brother... I really wish I can hear you call me brother for once... Sorry brother, I wasted your strength... I hope to see you after I go down and apologize to you face to face...

One second...two seconds...three seconds...four seconds...five seconds...

Du Zhanpeng's initial coldness was gone, the tremor in his right hand gradually spread throughout his entire body. His beautiful lips began to twitch. His cold eyes looked at Du Peng, who was in coma, slightly opening his lips and then closing them again. It was the word 'brother' could be read on his lips.

The outcome of the life-or-death pill, to live or die, would be seen after three seconds! Qin Fen stood in the same place blankly. His hands, which never trembled even when fighting the six masters, twitched violently.

Five seconds... it's been five seconds! Du Peng didn't return back alive, his body muscles were completely relaxed and the rosy lips were quickly becoming pale.

Life-or-death pill...life or death...

Qin Fen stared at Du Peng's body, seeing its body temperature gradually began to decrease...

The ruins of the battlefield were dead silent; screams from far away could not pierce the silence here. A kind of desolate mood shrouded this small heaven and earth alone.

There was no wind and there was direct sunlight here; the air was ice cold.

Brothers reunited like this... Du Zhanpeng never thought about it. He had fantasized many times about what to say when he sees his brother standing in front of him with a surprised expression, seeing his death and resurrection when they met again.

"Kid, not bad! Your star strength is much stronger than I thought! Now, you might really have the opportunity to complete your previous thoughts. Oh! Which is toruthlessly punch my face! Are you interested in giving it a try?"

"Why? Are you surprised that I am alive? Who am I? Du Zhanpeng! Your brother! How could I die without hearing you call me brother personally? Even the Inferno King won't accept me."

"I am now mingling with Qin Zhan. Oh! It is Qin Fen's brother. The two of us are interesting, pairing up with the other two brothers."

Thousands of fantasies, but he never thought that they would meet like this! Du Zhanpeng was alive, but Du Peng was dead. He couldn't even look at his older brother who he yearned for day and night. Du Peng did not even have the chance to open his eyes and see, when this man was right in front of him.

Life-or-death pill, life or death! Looked like Lu Dongbin had exhausted all the good fortune of the life-or-death pill.

Death always arrives when people are at their most careless moment. No one ever thought that Du Peng's outcome of taking the life-or-death pill was death.

Du Zhanpeng hugged Du Peng in his arms and his arms kept on trembling. His mouth started talking subconsciously, "Trash, it's time for you to wake up... I said, you need to wake up. Do you hear me?"

"Du Peng... I am Du Zhanpeng... do you hear me calling you? You should've woken up by now. You ate the life-or-death pill. You should've woken up now."

"Brother...it's me...I am your older brother. Do you hear me? You should wake up."

"Wake up, you won't die just like this... You still have many things to do, don't sleep!"

The soft whisper turned into an angry roar, "Are you f*cking listening? Don't sleep! You haven't even caught up with Qin Fen's strength! You haven't proven to the world that you did not waste my strength! You better wake up! Are you listening? You have such a cheap life! Don't people say that people with cheap lives can live long? Your life is cheaper than any other person!"

"Du Peng! You haven't called me your brother yet! You haven't heard me call you brother either! How can you sleep? Faster, wake up! Didn't you always want to punch right in my face!?"

Du Zhanpeng grabbed Du Peng's fist and hit his face forcefully, making'papa'sounds. Du Zhangpeng didn't use the protective aura shield and the strength made blood splashed out of his lips, "Get up, hit me."

...

Papa...papa..papa...

The fist hit Du Zhanpeng's handsome face and it became swollen in the blink of an eye.

"Qin Fen!"

With a roar as mad as a tiger, Du Zhanpeng jumped from the ground and his fist accurately bombarded onto Qin Fen's left cheek. Qin Fen's face that wasn't even touched by the six masters was smashed for the first time today. His body that never moved also flew up high and fell back onto the ground at this moment.

"Do you still remember what you promised me?"

Du Zhanpeng looked at Qin Fen, who slowly stood up from the ground gloomily. Du Zhanpeng held Du Peng with one hand while he rushed to Qin Fen and made another attack on Qin Fen's face.

There was no blocking, no counterattack. He did not even use the protective aura shield. Qin Fen's body once again flew up high and fell onto the ground. Endless blame struck his heart.This would not have happened if I killed God of Night during the battle. This would also not have happened if I made a move to stop God of Night when he passed by. No matter how Du Zhanpeng came back alive, Du Peng actually died under the life-or-death pill. Enzo Rota had once proudly said that there was no solution for the life-or-death pill!

Qin Fen slowly stood up by supporting his hands on the ground. He watched Du Zhanpeng rush towards him while screaming and punched him again.

"Do you remember! You promised me to help me take care of him! Is this how you take care of him? You answer me! Are you taking care of him like this?"

"Did you know? Over the years, I have seen him being distressed alone many times. Where were you during those times? Where were you f*cking at? Do you know? I wanted to appear in front of him so badly and tell him: Kid, I, your brother, am still good!"

"But I didn't! I have been forbearing! Kept on forbearing! I knew that the timing was not the best! I believed, I believed that you could definitely help him!"

"However, look at yourself! What did you f*cking do?! Du Peng has never had any friends since childhood, you are his only friend! Look at what you did for him! Did you take your responsibility as a friend? Do you treat your friends like this?"

"I... I didn't even have time to call him brother. I haven't even heard him call me brother! How can you let him die? How could you let him die?"

One punch... another punch... and then another punch...

Du Zhanpeng's raindrop-like fists landed on Qin Fen's face. Qin Fen laid on the ground and let Du Zhanpeng beat him up.How could these little pains of the flesh be compared to the pain of losing a loved one and the pain of losing a friend?

"Right! The Seven Stars of Immortal Thunder Holy Level Wheel!" Du Zhanpeng was no longer in the former state of an elegant noble son. He grabbed Du Peng's palm in an almost neurotic state. His fingers cut open Du Peng's palm and his palm, "Du Peng also has the Seven Stars of Immortal Thunder Holy Level Wheel! Pass the power... passing the power may help him..."

Du Peng's face was still not ruddy after the mighty Humanity Aura Shield passed.

A roar with powerful cold evil energy swept across the battlefield, madly battering the silence and grief on the battlefield ruins.

Lu Dongbin's injury was partly healed and he was restored to the fourth-level biochemical beast state. Lu Dongbin teamed up with He Xiangu and jumped next to Qin Fen. They looked at the newly appeared monster vigilantly.

This was the monster that was once mentioned in the afterimage projection! The metal-like skin flashed unspeakable luster. It was around two meters tall with hands and feet, standing and walking. The huge foot was proportionally half a size larger than a normal person's foot. The 'hand' on its arm only had four fingers and each finger shines cold blade light rays. The red and white blood stains flowed along its fingertips. There were still unwiped bloodstains on the corner of its mouth and it slowly stuck out its tongue to lick its mouth.

Lu Dongbin had never seen such eyes full of aggressiveness. The eyeballs without any white color were like beautiful obsidians. Its eyes had an overlooking aloof gaze apart from the aggressiveness.

That is the glance of wisdom! The glance that possesses wisdom!Lu Dongbin's body trembled. Even gorillas with brains that are very similar to humans don't possess such gaze, because this represented true wisdom! It can be said that it is the unique gaze of mankind.

Its tail that was as thick as an ordinary person's calf dragged on the ground behind the monster. It swung gently from side to side and its metal-like luster skin reflected light from the sun in the sky.

The monster tilted its head gently and looked at Du Zhanpeng who was not far away. Its eyes glanced through Qin Fen and Caesar. Its lips slowly opened and pronounced syllables that almost no one would've imagined, "Are...you...not...going to...run?"

Human language! Lu Dongbin felt that his hair was uprooted! Humans had seen many mutant creatures ever since humans entered the era of near-space, but they had never seen a mutant creature who speaks! Or maybe this thing couldn't be considered as a mutant creature at all, is it another type of creature?

"Why didn't I... appear earlier... why didn't I appear earlier..." Du Zhanpeng was still looking at Du Peng, who in his arms, as if he didn't see this strange scene. His mouth kept whispering, "Why? Didn't I want to see you so badly? Didn't I want to hear you call me brother? Is star strength really that important? Is it really that important to open up your rancor by yourself? You are still my brother even if you don't have the slightest star strength. Why did I, why did I!? Why did I force you to open up your rancors by yourself?"

"You..." The monster's finger with the knife-like nail raised slowly and pointed at Du Zhanpeng. The sharp and evil energy pierced through the sad aura in the field directly, "Are... the head...?"

Du Zhanpeng raised his head slowly, his sad gaze changed into a sharp glare. His white teeth extruded chills that could numb a person's scalp, "Get lost! I'm in a very bad mood now!"

"You... are here... to hunt me?" The monster pointed at himself and his lips raised up slowly. Its expression seemed to be laughing, but the smooth facial appearance without a nose bridge and only nostrils made it look so creepy.

"Big brother Zhanpeng..."

"Big brother Zhanpeng..."

Several Jungle Rangers appeared near the battlefield.

"Yes... I am here to hunt you." Du Zhanpeng held Du Peng in his arms and stood up slowly, "I am here to hunt you guys, who use the so-called new energy and new metal to set traps."
