Chapter 427

427 My Dearest Concubine

However, according to legend, the water turtle is a mystical creature that loves peace, calm and flows with nature, according to its element which if calm can give life to its surroundings, but, if it goes berserk, the results will be different again.

As the two of them were seriously observing the practice from a distance, suddenly the red light that could be seen in Luo Xiang’s eyes disappeared, Bai Ying’s flames disappeared.

“Ying Ying”

Luo Xiang saw the last Bai Ying float a little high with his circle of fire, and now the fire suddenly disappeared, there was a loud sound later.

Bruukk!

“Your Excellency!” then Xiao Hong shouted.

Bai Ying suddenly lost his flames and fell from a great height onto the rocky ground very hard.

“No Ying Ying!” without thinking even though the battlefield was still very hot Luo Xiang charged closer, Chen Ming and Su Lang belatedly realized what had happened, but indeed Bai Ying had fallen on his back on the ground.

Xiao Hong disperse his fire and approached to check on Bai Ying.

.....

“Your Highness!”

Luo Xiang came quickly and pushed the bird away from Bai Ying who was already half-conscious.

Blood was coming out of his head, he was badly injured.

“Ying Ying, why are so careless”

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

Bai Ying smiled, had a chance to see the face of the Crown Prince who was very anxious to see him, he tried to raise his hand to caress the Crown Prince’s cheek.

“Hehe, Your Majesty, don’t worry, Servant will heal...” until the young man lost consciousness, his hand almost fell and Luo Xiang caught him quickly.

“Ying, Ying Ying” caressed the young man’s cheek who already closed his eyes.

He’s worried, afraid, of course, he is, the blood flowing behind Bai Ying’s head did not stop, until the ground that was covered with a little grass was all red and wet, kissed Bai Ying’s fingers, his heart seemed to be about to jump out of fright to death, the memory of when Bai Ying almost died from his injuries replayed in his head. He lifted the boy’s body and hugged him tightly.

“Ying Ying”

Chen Ming and Bei Yau looked at each other, had the situation been different, they might have been very anxious, but, now Bai Ying was able to heal himself, although, it would take time according to the energy he had. Still, they were very anxious, let alone the Crown Prince, he was probably so shocked that he couldn’t help but cry as he tightly hugged Bai Ying’s limp body.

.....

The sky in the west was reddish, the strong wind brought the clouds that clumped together very quickly and disappeared before arriving at the other end of the sky.

Before long, strong winds replaced the white clouds to ashes, to blackness, with so many lightning bolts striking each other. It didn’t take long for the sky to darken with sudden heavy rain.

The great river to the north churned. Something moved beneath, which was definitely not a small thing because the river was as huge as the ocean with immeasurable depths of water. Before long the extremely dark sky threw a long lightning bolt towards the flaming water, something enormous moved within as if against the sky, and sure enough, something from within the water formed a huge force from within the water making a swirling water storm that sharpened upwards into the sky. The cyclone occurred with such great force that it blew away everything in its vicinity, including water and plants on the banks of a large river.

Luckily there were no settlements nearby, everyone got as far away from the great river of Black Tortoise which was famous for being full of wild beasts, including the river dwellers themselves, a black giant creature with a hard shell that poked its oak head above the water with a pair of shining yellow eyes. The roar was loud.

“Argggghh!!”

..............

The atmosphere in the room is very calm.

The Crown Prince sat beside the bed looking at Bai Ying who had been unconscious since yesterday. Luo Xiang gripped Bai Ying’s fingers tightly. For a long time, he just sat motionless waiting for the young man to heal himself, he couldn’t think of anything but to see his concubine’s face.

This is pathetic, he is an honourable Crown Prince with all the power he has, who can even rule the world with his two hands. However, he became so weak in front of his concubine, seeing him helpless made him want to protect him. Even though, he didn’t need it anymore, but, saw his pair of small and soft hands, which made him always want to hold him and make sure he was safe and sound.

Luo Xiang smiled seeing Bai Ying’s pair of big round eyes slowly open, the young man turned to him, smiling at the Crown Prince who always sat beside him.

“Your Majesty”

Luo Xiang raised Bai Ying’s hand, kissing it gently.

“You awake? Is Ying Ying hungry? Ne Ma has cooked your favourite food, brother has also asked Bei Yau to go to the city to buy your favourite beef jerky, you will definitely like it, don’t sleep too long otherwise your beef jerky will be given to Xiao Hong”

Bai Ying pursed his lips.

“Em, Your Majesty, why give it to Xiao Hong? it belongs to Ying er”

“Well, if you don’t wake up the beef jerky will spoil, after all, the bird likes what you like, it’s likely that the food that Ne Ma cooked will also be wasted by him if you don’t wake up soon”

“Your Majesty, then what will Ying er eat? That Xiao Hong, luckily we didn’t take him along, otherwise, all of Ying’s food will also be eaten by him” Bai Ying said while putting on an annoyed face.

Luo Xiang was excited to see Bai Ying’s face, and really want to pinch his cheeks.

“Erm, so Ying Ying doesn’t want Xiao Hong to come with us?” he asked.

Bai Ying glanced out the window, where the sky was very bright at that time, the wind was warm and the rainfall was well controlled. All of this was indirectly possible due to Xiao Hong’s return to his position, as the ruler of the southern winds, The sunny summer. He couldn’t possibly take him away from his place.

“Hem, Xiao Hong is a part of Xi Yang, although I would love to take him wherever we go, but what choice do we have? I feel sorry for him, he might spend a lot of his eternally long time in this city, but, that’s what he has to do, the little bird who turns into that human, having to live life with a pair of human legs facing a world that is not as beautiful as he thinks it is.”

Luo Xiang take a deep breath and raised his hand sliding Bai Ying’s cheek with a glance at him, looking at those big eyes for a moment.

“Does Ying Ying regret not being able to give him what he needs to know about this world? Is Ying Ying still thinking about the difficulties we have experienced and maybe we will go through again? Ying Ying, afraid that the bird will lose to the cruelty of the world and change himself?” Luo Xiang asked.

Bai Ying’s pair of big eyes looked at the Crown Prince for a long time, staring into those big sunken eyes with thick eyebrows sharp like a war general. He is indeed a Crown Prince who is an extraordinary future leader of the world.

“Your Majesty, thank you for always being by my side, always protecting me, accompanying me when all bad things come, everyone needs someone to hold their hand in difficult times, because of Your Majesty, I can be who I am now”

Luo Xiang steamed Bai Ying’s palm that was holding her cheek.

“chup”

“Then, what do you mean, Ying Ying wants to find someone to accompany him through all the difficult times?”

Bai Ying nodded slowly. As if The Crown Prince can hear his thought.

“Em, it can be said like that, if Xiao Hong had that someone”

“Em, what about A Er? He is Xiao Hong’s third sister, the two of them definitely need each other right?”

Bai Ying thought.

“Er? I’m not sure that someone is a Er, even if Xiao Hong sacrificed his bloodstone to save a Er’s human vessel before it was damaged, he’s still not someone who would accompany Xiao Hong through his difficult time, Ying dont think so.”

Luo Xiang took a deep breath. He patted his thigh and stood up from his seat.

“Well it can’t be helped, after all, we can’t bring a Er either, just Xiao Hong is already a hassle,” said the Crown Prince standing towards the round table not far from the bed, taking the small teacup that was lying on the tray and pouring tea from a small red long neck teapot with Xi Yang’s signature engraving all over its body.

Bai Ying was silent for a while, unaware of the meaning of the Crown Prince’s words until he opened his eyes wide and woke up from his bed.

“What do you mean, Your Majesty? I-if we can, can we bring Xiao Hong with us? But...”
