Chapter 431 (2/2)
“Yeah, she’s insane. Thank goodness I had no beef with her or I would’ve suffered!” Ye Lang nodded.
Ye Lang talked about the incident as if it was nothing. He didn’t realise he had, in fact, a lot of beef with the eighth princess since he was young. Now that he’d brought his entire family out of the empire, he had more beef with her than ever.
“No beef? Have you forgotten how you used to bully her when you were younger?” Tigress was sure her master had long forgotten about this.
“I do, but it’s all a blur. How did I bully her?” Ye Lang had a faint memory but he wasn’t sure. Tigress would probably know better.
He had always been with Tigress since he was five. After Tigress left, he only met the eighth princess twice- once when he was giving the accession candidates their questions and once when she murdered her father.
What about before he was five years old? The eighth princess was still a baby then, he wouldn’t have been able to bully her.
“You used to play a lot with the seventh princess and the eighth princess loved to tag along wherever you went. However, you always thought she was annoying and tried very hard to shake her off. You might remember that,” said Tigress.
“I do, she was just a child then. Very annoying too, always crying.”
Ye Lang was only seven then, while the eighth princess was three or four.
“After a few times, she stopped following you around but you still met her occasionally. It was only after that one incident when she stopped hanging out with you!” continued Tigress.
“What incident?”
“You were both playing house, I’m not sure what happened either. I left for the washroom with the seventh princess and both of you were alone. I’m not sure what you did but she was furious! When I asked you about it, you said you didn’t know what happened either…” Tigress chuckled as she recalled how adorable Ye Lang was.
“?? What? You basically didn’t tell me anything,” Ye Lang said.
“I know but I had to tell you about it. That was a long time ago though,” Tigress said with a grin. She just wanted to reminisce, that was all.
“Tigress, what is that?”
Ye Lang didn’t mind either. His attention was already on something else.
“Master, wait up…” Tigress ran after him.
...
“Tigress, your spear techniques are already very powerful, plus you have your own twist on them too! Not bad…”
In the morning, Ye Lang and Tigress were exactly like before- one was practising her spear techniques while the other was reading and sipping tea. Everything they did was as if they were back at the Ye Residence.
Tigress’ spear techniques had already advanced beyond the Yang techniques she used to practice. She was already at a level where she developed a whole new set of unique techniques for herself.
