768: Chapter 504 768: Chapter 504 Long Feifeng was so infuriated by her paternal half-brothers that she wanted to smack them to death with a single slap.
She felt as if their spittle was on her face as they spoke, finding them utterly filthy.
At this moment, she didn’t know her face was dirty, her makeup smudged, and her hair and clothes were in disarray.
It wasn’t Cai Xiangxiang who had caused this during their fight.
It was because Long Feifeng had been tossed around by the wind while she was high in the sky.
She hadn’t looked in a mirror and was unaware of her disheveled state.
“Enough, you wastrels, you worthless things!
No wonder Father Emperor doesn’t give you any of the supreme elixirs and keeps them for his own cultivation—you’re all a bunch of good-for-nothings.”
Long Feifeng cursed , not giving any face to those princes, causing their complexions to change.
“Humph, ignorant fools.”
The princes dispersed, dissatisfied with Long Feifeng and unwilling to argue with her.
They harbored resentment inside, without a way to vent it.
Although Long Feifeng’s words were venomous, they made sense.
Their father, the king, was very selfish.
Having supreme elixirs, he wouldn’t give any to them for cultivation.
Already so old, he had become an old immortal.
Still seeking everlasting life, hoping to ascend to the heavens?
Ye Tian was very pleased as he returned.
He was certain that it must have been Jiang Tang who had treated the princess in such a way—only he would dare to do so.
As the Young General himself, he wouldn’t dare to take such action.
The duties of his station forced him to consider the bigger picture, and sometimes this meant his loved ones, especially his wife, would suffer.
Ye Tian decided that in the future when facing such people, he would be a bit more forceful.
If he couldn’t confront them openly, he would do it in the shadows.
He returned to the General’s Mansion, where his subordinates reported to him along the way, boasting proudly that his sister-in-law had been brave.
The most beautiful part was not knowing who did it, but someone had sent the princess and her entourage back to the Imperial Palace.
Ye Tian had his suspicions, and as he listened to their excited discussions, he found Long Feifeng’s arrogance unbearable.
Ye Tian reached his fiancée’s courtyard and looked Yan Weiwei up and down.
Only when he saw she was unharmed did he relax.
They’re too weak to hurt me,” said Yan Weiwei upon seeing her fiancé’s worried expression, her heart filled with warmth and sweetness.
“Next time something happens, don’t hold back.
Yan Weiwei replied with a sweet smile, “We’re not shrews.
There’s no need for fighting, and there aren’t that many people worth fighting with.
The way you speak makes me sound like a barbarian.
If I can use words, there’s no need for violence.”
“Yes, yes, Madam is right!” Ye Tian affirmed.
“You, always busy with official matters, don’t need to worry about me.
I’m quite well here,” said Yan Weiwei considerately.
“Today is our engagement celebration.
If it weren’t for that princess spreading false imperial decrees, there would’ve been no major issues requiring my attention.
There’s nothing significant coming up, so I will stay by Madam’s side!”
Ye Tian thought about how others would honeymoon after marriage and yearned to take his fiancée on a trip.
With this in mind, he planned to prepare a surprise for her.
Having thought this, he kept the idea in his heart and went to thank Jiang Tang.
Confronted with Ye Tian, Jiang Tang, of course, scolded him in his capacity as a younger brother-in-law.
How can we allow the women by our side to be wronged?
You believe whatever others say so easily.
How can I trust you with my sister?”
Jiang Tang pointed out the issue, and Ye Tian understood.
He realized he had been deceived because he valued his responsibilities linked to his station, which made him vulnerable to manipulation.
“The reprimand is justified.
The same mistake won’t be made again, please be assured!”
That shameless princess, do you know what she said?
She wanted my senior sister’s dowry jewelry and the supreme elixirs I gave her to become hers.
If it hadn’t happened in your residence, I would have slapped her into a meat pancake.”
Jiang Tang swore in front of so many people, even in the presence of beautiful women, and nobody thought it inappropriate.
Many admired him—a person so adept in cultivation who earnestly protected someone with such full-hearted love.
People of the Cultivation World believed that to walk the Path of Cultivation, one must sever ties with family love and romantic love to focus solely on cultivation and ascend in power more quickly.
A person who could cultivate so rapidly while still embracing kinship, justice, and love was something many aspired to but couldn’t achieve, craving his warmth.
Legend had it that individuals from the Cultivation World were the most selfish, devoid of familial affection, heartless and unfeeling.
To possess an original heart and such accomplishments in cultivation made him an anomaly in the Cultivation World, worthy of many people’s emulation.
That Princess is just as shameless as those princes, all offspring of the same father.
Just now in the Imperial Palace, they spoke the same way, asking me for dozens of supreme elixirs.
I’m not an alchemist.
If I have resources, I’d rather give them to the soldiers around me,”
Ye Tian’s cursing of the Royal Family did not faze Yan Weiwei, but his own family members felt afraid.
Coming from humble backgrounds, they had only ever encountered a village head as the biggest official, and just today they met such eminent figures that they didn’t even dare to breathe loudly.
Now the son-in-law was criticizing the Royal Family, leaving them nodding in scared agreement, wanting to stop him but not daring to.
Their son-in-law was so powerful that they had no right to worry.
Their greatest concern was for their daughter.
