Chapter 575: You still have to call him brother.
Huang Tianqi glanced at Ye Fei again: "Leaving the injured aside and finding your own way out is the most sensible thing to do!"
Upon hearing this, Huang Rongyu, unusually serious, put on a stern face and said solemnly, "I will not abandon my teammates."
"Foolish!" Huang Tianqi couldn't help but curse, "She's just a weak woman, what's wrong with abandoning her? Are you just going to waste all your talent like this?"
"Heaven is truly blind! This dual-spiritual-root talent would be better given to me, the Crown Prince... I would never be like you, lingering in a desperate situation for the sake of a woman. If Father Emperor knew you were like this, he would surely faint from anger!"
One accusation after another rained down on Huang Rongyu.
Huang Rongyu clenched his fist in his sleeve, but he remained expressionless, showing no anger or intention to utter a word in rebuttal, as if he were already used to such things.
Ye Fei was resting next to a tree when she heard Huang Tianqi's nagging, and her eyes darkened.
Looking at Huang Rongyu, who remained motionless, Ye Fei's eyebrows furrowed so tightly they looked as if they could trap a mosquito.
She strode to Huang Rongyu's side, crossed her arms, and said in a cool tone, "Do you believe that a 'weak woman' like me can punch you so badly that even your own mother wouldn't recognize you?"
Huang Tianqi was taken aback, then quickly realized what was happening, and his fairly good-looking face instantly turned red: "You, you are insolent! How dare you speak so arrogantly to this Crown Prince? Aren't you afraid that this Crown Prince will punish you?"
"If I really had the intention to kill, do you think you could still be so arrogant in front of me? Who cares whether you're the crown prince or not?"
Ye Fei gave Huang Tianqi a sinister smile: "Anyway, this place is full of beautiful flowers, making it a good spot to bury corpses. How about... we use you as a scapegoat?"
Staring intently into the girl's dark eyes, Huang Tianqi felt a chill run down his spine, goosebumps spreading all over his body—how could this brat talk about murder so casually?!
Seeing that Huang Tianqi was quite frightened by her, Ye Fei pulled Huang Rongyu over with one hand: "If we're talking about age, you should call Rongyu 'brother.' Is this the kind of etiquette you learned in the royal family to berate your own brother like this? Is your mother only concerned with seizing the throne and not with how you will conduct yourself in the future?"
Huang Tianqi's face turned ashen.
Huang Rongyu was shocked: "Xiao Fei?! You..."
Ye Fei glanced at Huang Rongyu, who sighed and lowered her voice, saying, "Thank you for speaking up for me, but Fei, the current Empress of Lingyun Kingdom is very powerful. You just insulted the Empress like that..."
"If you really want to punish me, it's not up to her, the Empress, to speak." Ye Fei sneered, then turned to Huang Tianqi. "That's right, I'm cursing your own mother in front of you today, just as you're cursing my teammate in front of me, the captain."
"If you apologize to Rong Yu now and call him 'brother,' then after the Cangzhou Grand Gathering is over, you must personally go to the palace to apologize to your mother—do you dare?"
"This...this Crown Prince..." Huang Tianqi gritted his teeth, his fists clenched, staring at Huang Rongyu with a sharp gaze mixed with an unconcealable resentment.
He was asked to apologize to Huang Rongyu, whom he had hated since childhood, and to call him "brother"... This was an insult to his status!
After waiting for a long time, Huang Tianqi still couldn't utter a single word. Ye Fei rolled her eyes and shook her head speechlessly.
Fine, I won't make things difficult for Huang Rongyu.
Just as she was about to pull Huang Rongyu away, a sudden gust of demonic wind swept up the fallen peach petals, blinding them with a flurry of blossoms. The next moment, the scene before them abruptly changed—
