Du Hong's elder brother is named Du Yi, the legitimate young master of the Floating Pavilion.

If it weren't for Du Hong's scheming betrayal, with their father's support, Du Yi would have already secured the position of Pavilion Master without a hitch, though perhaps a bit too smoothly for his liking.

Rong Zheng, who usually chirped away like a sparrow in the mountains, found herself at a rare loss for words when mentioning this name.

It was her sword that struck, blood splattering like flowers, staining half of her smoke-blue robe.@@novelbin@@

Rong Zheng recounted that the struggle between the brothers, Du Hong and Du Yi, had almost come to light. However, with the old Pavilion Master still around, Du Hong couldn't go too far.

He knew he was merely being used by his father as a test for his elder brother. The old Pavilion Master had high hopes for his firstborn, satisfied in every aspect except for his belief that his eldest son was too merciful, which would be a disadvantage when he ascended to the position of Pavilion Master.

The pavilion naturally divided into two factions. The majority supported the young master, while those supporting Du Hong included Rong Zheng and others who had been suppressed by the old Pavilion Master for years.

All of Rong Zheng's knowledge about Du Yi came from Du Hong: his character, his habits, his attitude towards Du Hong...

Du Hong always told her what he wanted her to know, never directly addressing what she wanted to know.

In the first couple of years by Du Hong's side, Rong Zheng spoke the least she ever had in her life.
