When Rong Yuhang looked at Luo Mingli, his eyes became increasingly kind making Luo Mingli suspicious of his next move.

"Now that I've greeted your family..." Rong Yuhang spoke slowly.

His face beamed while saying, " You should come to greet my family."

Luo Mingli couldn't stop his mouth from twitching. "This one will be meeting the emperor?"

Rong Yuhang was overflowing with affection that it was enough to send chills down even the coldest of hearts. "That's to be expected. Father emperor is now your father-in-law, it's time to go pay our respects."

Luo Mingli chuckled softly, "Your highness must be very excited."

Rong Yuhang smiled flatteringly.

"Forgive me for my words but I've heard rumours that your highness and the emperor are not as close as other princes." Luo Mingli was absolutely fearless when speaking.

Normal people wouldn't ask the seventh Prince this question to his face unless they didn't want to live anymore. But who made him court death?

Rong Yuhang didn't get offended but it did remind him of his previous life and despise his father even more. He didn't understand why his father hated him so much and even until his death, the look he gave him every time he saw his face was as if seeing someone else through him.

He also never heard anything about his mother as if she never existed so his origins were very questionable in the eyes of others.

"What relationship I have with father emperor should have nothing to do with you." Rong Yuhang gave a smile that wasn't a smile, it was cold and daunting.

The pressure around Luo Mingli was heavy and a sense of dread crawled up his skin, his already weak body looked even weaker and insignificant in the face of absolute strength.

Although he wasn't offended, being reminded of the past would make his blood boil and his already unstable emotions leak. He quickly reigned in his powers and adjusted his emotions.

Once again, Rong Yuhang scooped Luo Mingli up like a little basket and made his way to the Palace.

Luo Mingli felt that he should get his cultivation back as soon as possible, being carried all willy nilly by someone else didn't feel good.

It made him feel weak and that was something he hated.

"Your highness isn't going to punish me?"

Rong Yuhang was very magnanimous, " What type of death do you want? I'll let you choose as your privilege of being my partner."

"Why is death always the ending?" Luo Mingli was slightly speechless as everytime, he would be threatened with death.

"Killing people is easier." He gave a charming smile to Luo Mingli, his robes fluttering behind him. "How did you think I made my reputation. Or else? "

That was true, but Luo Mingli scorned this inside his heart.

......

The palace was absolutely grand spanning over miles of land. There were statues of mythical beasts carved out and the intricate designs were meticulous and detailed.

Luo Mingli looked up at the tall building, whoever designed this palace certainly wasn't lacking in the lavish and expensive taste.

By the gates, there were also high leveled cultivators guarding the gate and luckily, they knew of the seventh prince's appearance therefore, his identity.

One of them told a servant to go inform the emperor of Rong Yuhang's arrival.

One of them stepped up and spoke while bowing. "Please excuse our inefficiency to welcome you in quicker, seventh Prince. Someone will come to pick you up."

However, his words fell on deaf ears as Rong Yuhang walked in himself, ignoring their words.

Luo Mingli knew there were many cultivators in the Palace so he had to stick close to Rong Yuhang, lest he be murdered with a single flick of the finger.

Without anybody to stop him, Rong Yuhang made his way to the emperor freely. No one wanted to stop the seventh Prince.

As soon as he arrived, the emperor was already sat on his throne in a relaxed position looking down, no one could read his expression. Luo Mingli bowed saluting the emperor.

The aura emanating from him was several times heavier than anyone elses, and the elegance and arrogance of an emperor could not be hidden. At a single glance, anyone could tell that he was not to be trifled with.

Rong Yuhang walked with grace and elegance, his steps relaxed and laid back. He wasn't afraid of the emperor even though his strength couldn't match his currently.

It was tradition to bow and greet the emperor when they appeared before him but Rong Yuhang wasn't anyone.

He stood straight with no intention to salute the emperor and spoke casually. "Father emperor, my spouse and I came to visit you."

A voice was heard from the side and it was mocking and harsh. "Seventh brother, why aren't you greeting father emperor? Did no one ever teach you any manners?"

The person next to them also voiced out with a contemptuous tone. "Fifth princess, there's no need to waste your breath. Did you forget that he has no mother to teach him?"

Rong Yunxin was the fifth princess and when she heard this, she feigned a shocked expression. "That's right. I completely forgot. But there's still father emperor... "

The surrounding area seemed to be filled with snickering and whispers but everyone held the same contempt and dislike for Rong Yuhang but they didn't dare to show it in front of his face, only laughing in the dark. Everyone directly ignored Luo Mingli as though he was air.

The third Prince, Rong Hui spoke out as well in that moment." How could father emperor teach when he's so busy managing the affairs of the empire. We are in father emperor's presence so be mindful of your words."

Rong Yunxin acted startled and made a guilty expression. "Third brother is right. It was this fifth sister that was short sighted."

Rong Yuhang's eyes swept over, expression cold and he curled his lips in disdain at the sight at his so called siblings. They weren't even close to the words siblings and was a far cry from it.

His eyes landed on Rong Hui and his countenance became frosty and sharp. Rong Hui was also a part of that disgusting harem of Lin Yangqiu's who participated in his death.

Just remembering the sight made him want to skin his flesh and drain his blood before setting him on a raging fire to burn a slow, painful death.

His heart began rumbling and a tide of emotions constricted his mind. He breathed in trying to calm his surging emotions.

Rong Yuhang's entire being radiated coldness about the same as a blizzard, casting people thousands of miles away.

With a wave of his arms, a tremendous force of qi launched straight at the three. They were unprepared for a sudden attack and could only reflexively dodge while casting a barrier of qi around themselves to block the sudden attack.

As Rong Hui has the highest cultivation out of the three, he wasn't harmed but his appearance was a bit messy.

Compared to the other two, he was much better.

Rong Yunxin had cuts on her body and the taste of rust in her mouth revealed the fact she had suffered an internal injury.

As for the other person, they were just a close maid of the fifth princess and directly spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground as a mess.

The crowd who just went to watch the show were frightened and backed away, whispering among each other in fear.

Rong Hui and Rong Yunxin's expression was ugly and she shouted viciously. "How dare you attack me and third brother!! You uneducated piece of trash!"

Rong Yuhang hooked the corner of his lips and directly knocked her to the ground in an instant. Rong Yunxin didn't have time to react until she found herself lying on the ground with Rong Yuhang's foot on her back.

She couldn't hold back the mouthful of blood that came out of her mouth. She struggled to voice out her words. "Y-You... Get your filthy foot off me!!"

She tried to gather her spiritual energy but screamed out in pain when Rong Yuhang grinded his foot down, his qi inlaid within the attack struck down like a ravishing torrent, sending a shocking pierce into her body.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Everyone trembled at the screeching voice that was clearly showcasing her suffering. Sadly, no one came out to help.

Rong Hui couldn't watch any longer and righteously declared. "Seventh brother, not even sparing your own sister. Is this how you behave? We are all siblings of the same blood, there isn't any need to treat each other so viciously?"

Rong Yuhang didn't even give him a glance as he also branded another attack, dislocating her shoulder. Her screams intensified so badly that she almost fainted on the spot.

Rong Hui's expression fell and became extremely gloomy. He was clearly not giving him any face and had no intention to listen.

Rong Yuhang finally opened his mouth, curving into a derisive smirk. "As fifth sister has said, I'm uneducated and have no manners. Naturally I would not know your meaning of 'behave'."

Then he removed his foot from Rong Yunxin's back and gave a disgusted look before kicking her over and then swept his eyes over the entire room.

Everyone turned their heads away to avoid eye contact. Rong Yuhang sneered outwardly and what he said next made those who heard it tremble in trepidation.

"As this Seventh Prince has not been taught anything, I learnt on my own that if I'm being wronged, this Seventh Prince must absolutely avenge himself by punishing those who dare to offend this fifth Prince. I'm already being kind enough to not grant her an ending of death."

Then his murderous gaze went straight to Rong Hui, sending shivers down his spine.

The emperor of Yantian empire, Rong Xiuran, finally moved seeing enough of this farce and his voice was solemn and dignified." Enough."

Everyone turned their heads to the emperor, waiting for his next words.

Rong Hui shouted, "Father emperor!"

Some people were excited for what would happen next, some gloated at the fifth prince waiting for his punishment while others watched with curious eyes but they didn't make it too obvious.

In front of the emperor, Rong Yuhang had just attacked his own sister which the rules stated that the Rong Family could not harm each other but this was obviously ignored by Rong Yuhang.

Rong Hui and Rong Yunxin was hopeful that their father would get revenge for them and secretly gloated in their hearts.
