Chapter 2001: Chapter 2001: Hold it... Don’t Speak

Although he too did not want to see his mother wrongfully accused, yet from the beginning until now, why did he feel that his mother was not falsely accused, but indeed wanted to kill his eldest brother?

"Second Brother, does Mother really want to kill Eldest Brother?"

Seeing that his second brother didn’t speak, Third Brother thought about it and changed to another question to ask.

Hearing Third Brother’s words, Yue Tianze also took a deep breath.

He too didn’t understand why. Even if Eldest Brother wasn’t their birth mother’s child, he was still their blood brother, wasn’t he?

Moreover, over the past year, Eldest Brother never fought for or snatched anything. During their training, he had even saved Tianze. If Eldest Brother truly wanted to compete for anything, just by leaving him alone during their training, he would have been dead already.

"Hao’er, you’re not young anymore. Remember in the future, not to always voice questions that shouldn’t be asked. Keep them in your heart, and one day you will understand on your own," he said to Yue Tianhao.

Yue Tianhao: "..."

So he couldn’t ask if he didn’t understand?

What’s more, what shouldn’t be asked and what should be asked? He didn’t know either. Couldn’t someone tell him?

However, now truly wasn’t the time to discuss these issues. He looked up and saw his mother lashing her whip towards Lin Caisang’s back. Then, as he had expected, Lin Caisang narrowly avoided it again, with no difference from every other time she had dodged in the past.

"Second Brother, is Eldest Brother’s sister toying with Mother? Her dodges are too skilled, right?" he tilted his head, looking once more at Yue Tianze with a voice that was neither loud nor soft, just enough for everyone in the courtyard to hear.

"Cough, cough cough!"

Yue Tianze, upon hearing his younger brother’s words, was successfully choked by his saliva.

Hadn’t he just taught him not to ask questions that shouldn’t be asked? Why had he forgotten in just an instant? With such a question, what was he, as the second brother and as a son, supposed to answer?

If he said yes, then how was his mother supposed to face everyone in the courtyard?

Being played with by a younger generation, his mother would have lost all face in this lifetime. It was already an inglorious matter, and yet it was now bluntly out in the open, thanks to his oblivious son.

What kind of situation was this?

"Cough, don’t... don’t talk."

He almost ended up with a thick tongue, thanks to his third brother’s fuss.

Meanwhile, in the center of the courtyard, Luo Mianyi, fighting intently with Lin Caisang and unable to land a hit, had been silently fuming. Upon hearing her son’s words, her already simmering anger boiled over.

"Lin Caisang, you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?"

"What do you mean on purpose?"

Lin Caisang raised an eyebrow, dodging another lethal strike from Luo Mianyi’s whip, and countered her question.

"You bitch, if you’ve got the skills, stand still and let me hit you!" Luo Mianyi was livid as she yelled out.

She had been getting increasingly spirited, thinking that Lin Caisang was barely dodging every time, that there surely would be one strike Lin Caisang couldn’t evade, and she would finally be able to kill Lin Caisang.

But after her son’s remark and seeing Lin Caisang’s indifferent face, what was there not to understand?

This little bitch was doing it on purpose, not struggling to dodge the deadly blows, but toying with her as if it were a game.

"Tch."

Hearing her angry bellow, Lin Caisang let out a sneer.

Initially with her back to Luo Mianyi, she turned sideways, and her Wind Spirit Whip seemed to move with a will of its own, lashing out towards Luo Mianyi’s face.
