On the eve of their journey to the secret realm, Feng Qinghuang finally reunited with Rong Qi and several of her senior brothers.
Di Wuyou looked at the person Feng Qinghuang was holding hands with, and the more he looked, the more familiar they seemed.
Rong Qi stared intently at Di Wuyou, his eyes practically spitting fire. "So these are the people from the Holy Feather Kingdom? I wonder what their relationship is with the royal family, or if they're enemies!"
"Aqi, let's sit down first, okay? Let's make it clear that no matter what you hear later, you're not allowed to get angry."
Although Rong Qi sat down with Feng Qinghuang, his eyes remained fixed on Di Wuyou.
Rong Jin patted his second disciple on the shoulder, gesturing for him to sit down as well.
"Alright, everyone, sit down. Aqi, you already know the other two. Let me introduce you to this one. He is my second disciple... Emperor Wuyou of the Holy Feather Kingdom. This is Young Master Zong Yue."
After Rong Jin finished his introduction, Rong Qi sneered inwardly. So his uncle already knew Di Wuyou's identity, but why did he still take him as a disciple? Didn't he know that the Di family was the ones who killed his parents?
Rong Qi looked at Rong Jin with a cold smile: "So, what does Uncle want to say?"
Rong Jin sighed deeply: "Uncle wants to tell you that Wuyou's parents are the only ones who did not participate in that siege operation, and they were on the border more than ten years ago, not in the Holy Feather Kingdom."
"so what?"
“Aqi, your uncle wants to tell you that Wuyou and his family have been looking for you for more than ten years and have done a lot for you, but your uncle has never told you. Now that you have met, let Wuyou tell you himself.”
When Di Wuyou heard Rong Qi call him "Master" and "Uncle," he knew that the person before him was the former Crown Prince's orphan they had been searching for. No wonder he looked somewhat familiar; he resembled the Crown Prince. Although he had only seen the Crown Prince when he was a child, he still had some impression of him. Moreover, his own father and the Crown Prince were half-brothers, so it would be a lie to say he wasn't familiar with him.
"Wuyou greets Your Highness!"
Rong Qi shook his head indifferently: "We are not familiar with each other, and I am not your little prince. Your crown prince should be the emperor now."
"No, Your Highness's father will always be His Highness the Crown Prince of the Holy Feather Kingdom."
Rong Qi sneered: "Ha, forever? Forever buried underground? Just because my mother is the eldest princess of the Azure Dragon Kingdom, your Holy Feather Kingdom thinks my father is suspected of treason and wants to wipe them out in one fell swoop. Is this what you mean by forever being the Crown Prince of your Holy Feather Kingdom?"
Emperor Wuyou shook his head: "Your Highness, I don't know the specifics of that incident very well. I've been investigating it since I returned, and I've made some progress. However, I haven't figured it out yet. Once everything is clear, I will give an explanation to the Crown Prince, the Crown Princess, and Your Highness. There are still many ministers and officials in the Holy Feather Kingdom who are looking forward to Your Highness's return."
"I will not go back, at least not now. I will go back to give my parents an explanation after everything is investigated and the truth is revealed."
Di Wuyou looked at his master, then at his junior sister, and both shook their heads, indicating that they could not help him.
Di Wuyou was helpless; he couldn't simply force the person back, and besides, he wasn't sure he could defeat him. He couldn't even discern the young prince's cultivation level—could it be higher than his own? Truly, he was of the Crown Prince's bloodline. When the Crown Prince was alive, he was a top expert in the Holy Feather Kingdom, a master of both literature and martial arts; that's why so many people were envious.
The private room was very quiet, and no one was speaking; the atmosphere was somewhat eerie.
Feng Qinghuang looked at this person and that person, but no one said anything. It seemed that she was the only one who could do it.
Feng Qinghuang rubbed her stomach and said pitifully, "Aqi, are you guys done chatting? I'm starving."
Rong Qi touched her aggrieved little face: "We're done talking. Why didn't Jiao Jiao go out to eat first? I felt so bad for Jiao Jiao if she went hungry."
"Hehehe, it's okay, I want to wait for Aqi to eat together!"
After Feng Qinghuang finished speaking, she ordered the servant to serve the dishes, as she was starving.
Watching the interaction between the two, Di Wuyou had been terrified when he saw how intimate they were, initially mistaking his junior sister for the young prince's sister. He had spent years on the mountain giving his junior sister a thorough talking-to; if she were the young prince's sister, then she would be their princess.
Thank goodness, upon closer inspection, they seem to be two people who like each other.
Di Wuyou suddenly came to his senses. Wait a minute, when did his junior sister get someone she liked? How come he didn't know?
Looking at his master and two junior brothers, Di Wuyou realized they clearly knew about their relationship all along but hadn't told him. They were really asking for a beating!
What should I do if my hands are itchy again?
