Chapter 584: I Still Hate You
Huang Rongyu's expression was indifferent: "I will search for you, no matter how long it takes."
"What if Ye Fei is no longer in the Xia Hua Secret Realm? Wouldn't your search have been in vain?"
Huang Rongyu stopped and turned to stare at Huang Tianqi: "You can leave first and go to the next secret realm on your own."
After saying that, he continued walking forward.
Huang Tianqi stared blankly at Huang Rongyu's retreating figure, then followed her again, calling out, "Wait for me!"
Huang Rongyu glanced sideways at Huang Tianqi behind her: "Why are you still following me?"
Huang Tianqi pouted and said reluctantly, "Among all his children, Father Emperor will always love you the most. If you die here like this, Father Emperor will be very sad."
Huang Rongyu: "..."
He pushed aside the weeds blocking his path with one hand, his voice cool: "Isn't my death something to be happy about for you?"
"I... I, the Crown Prince, do wish for your early death! But I know very well that if you die, I will never become a second Huang Rongyu..."
Huang Tianqi's voice grew softer and softer.
Huang Rongyu was somewhat surprised by his words. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Won't the Empress be angry if you say such things to me?"
Huang Tianqi was stunned for a moment, then scratched his hair in annoyance, his tone very displeased. He glared at Huang Rongyu as if he wanted to pierce a hole through her: "Of course the Empress Dowager will be angry! Don't misunderstand, even if I, the Crown Prince, say such things to you, I still hate you in my heart!"
Huang Rongyu stared intently at Huang Tianqi without saying a word.
The two walked one after the other. Suddenly, Huang Rongyu felt the ground beneath his shoes become extremely soft. He looked down and saw that the ground had formed a huge pit, and all the soil inside had turned into a viscous liquid like swamp water. Then he slid down into it!
Huang Tianqi's expression changed drastically. He desperately tried to climb out of the swamp, but due to excessive tension, his limbs became uncoordinated. The more he struggled, the faster he sank. In an instant, the swamp mud swallowed most of his body like a giant abyss beast.
"Help, help me!" Fear filled Huang Tianqi's heart. His face turned pale, and his body became increasingly stiff. Covered in mud, he was no longer as noble as before, but rather a wretched and miserable figure.
Compared to the panicked Huang Tianqi, Huang Rongyu appeared much calmer. His legs were firmly held by the cold swamp mud, making it impossible for him to move. He could only use his upper body to slowly float up.
"Huang Rongyu! Save me! Quickly!"
Huang Rongyu glanced at him and said, "Don't struggle. Struggling will only make you sink faster."
Huang Tianqi cried out, tears streaming down his face, "What should I do?! I don't want to die! I don't want to die!"
Huang Rongyu: "..."
The boy sighed. He saw a green vine on the shore. He spread his five fingers, and the vine was drawn by the light-elemental spiritual energy and quickly spread towards him.
Clutching the green vine tightly in her palm, Huang Rongyu used it to swim towards the shore with all her might.
Having successfully reached the shore, Huang Rongyu took deep breaths of air. The air in the swamp was so thin that even breathing felt like a luxury.
When Huang Tianqi saw Huang Rongyu kneeling on the shore, panting, his eyes lit up and he shouted excitedly, "Quick! Pull me up!"
Huang Rongyu finally caught his breath. Staring at Huang Tianqi's disheveled appearance, he couldn't help but recall the image of himself as a child, submerged underwater and unable to breathe.
The excruciating pain of water rushing into my nasal cavity is still unforgettable to this day.
Huang Rongyu's eyes darkened slightly as she thought to herself with a hint of gloom—what would happen if Huang Tianqi were just left here like this?
