CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

123 The Light

“No Ying Ying!”

LuoXiang dashed swiftly towards the water and immediately plunged in. he don’t even care about the young dragon ErWang.

AYa’s eyes widened if it’s true what her father told her, at that time the young dragon ErWang was in the weakest state, if she could kill it she could become very strong and even immortal, but, AYa doubted, she was actually more worried about BaiYing who’s falling into the water.

“Ying’er”

While the girl was still stuttering in her place from the top of the cliff appeared several people standing looking at the dragon ErWang which was still in a coiled position.

“Quick, kill him!” cried the fat man standing on the edge of the cliff, several of his men dressed in black tied ropes to a tree and slid down toward the dragon that was still transforming, preparing to strike with their swords.

Appearing YueWang behind eunuch Sheng, the man smiled broadly with a sly face.

“Hahahaha young dragon, you are in my hands now”

The several black clothed figures charged to ErWang’s at the same time, aiming their swords at the dragon’s fragile body which had not yet fully formed its scales, some throwing ropes to keep the dragon from moving, some thrusting sharp weapons, those who made the dragon moan.

.....

The heavy rain that fell made ErWang’s dragon blood made the white dragon’s body change color.

“Arrgghhh!!”

While in the water.

BaiYing’s body floated very light, unable to move, his eyes could still see the last light on the surface of the water until everything disappeared, he couldn’t move and his whole body felt helpless.

Image after image of his life flashed through his head.

“YingYing!”

The Crown Prince’s cry, the warm embrace of his big hands, just as he felt right now, someone was holding his waist very tightly, BaiYing opened his eyes to see the sad LuoXiang who was hugging him.

“YingYing!” voice from the Crown Prince’s eyes who saw him with a deep gaze.

LuoXiang tried to shake BaiYing’s limp body who was now tightly closing his eyes.

Without thinking twice, the young man grabbed BaiYing’s chin and kissed his lips, no, he gave him artificial respiration.

“Umph!” tugging at BaiYing’s small waist made the helpless body fuse with him, their magnificent clothes floated so lightly in the water as if flying beautifully.

Above the water.

The young dragon ErWang was about to bleed out when something popped out from the water. LuoXiang brought BaiYing’s frail body to the shore where aYa was waiting.

“Ohoek ohoek!”

The young man tried to expel all the water that was swallowed by him, he shivered with cold holding the Crown Prince’s two hands tightly.

“Y-Your Majesty”

LuoXiang looked at AYa, asking her to keep BaiYing in her arms,
“aYa, take YingYing to a safe place, remember to go as far as possible, return to the city and wait for me there”

BaiYing was panting trying to hold LuoXiang’s hand which was about to let go.

“Your Majesty, d-don’t...” he looks at the Crown Prince’s eyes deeply, still shivering from the cold and ache in his whole body.

From the boy’s eyes LuoXiang understood what he meant, LuoXiang turned to aYa who was holding BaiYing, the girl nodded.

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Without waiting any longer the young man shot back towards the boulder where ErWang’s dragon was, while dashed to the waterfalls, LuoXiang remembered what BeiYau had said earlier.

“It is said that when the young dragon ErWang transforms Your Majesty must kill him immediately, before he is killed by someone else who is entitled to the blood pearl, if that happens, that person will become the strongest and greatest person of all time”

And LuoXiang had promised BaiYing that he would not carelessly kill innocent creatures again, but, what choice he has now? Rather, He or that cunning man YueWang killed him.

LuoXiang arrived quickly on the rock where the young dragon struggled after many people tied and stabbed it here and there, without thinking he pointed his long sword at the young dragon’s body.

“Sheets!”

The roar of the young dragon ErWang could be heard in the distance.

“Arrrgghhhh!!’

.....

The sky is clear.

The water from last night’s heavy rain was still dripping down from the top of the leaves onto the muddy ground below. Along the LiuYang city, which although full of wet mud and puddles everywhere after last night’s heavy rain but made the residents smile widely with happiness, the sun seemed to be back in its position as always, warm and not too hot, the wind was blowing very gently, with the smell of the earth still wet and cold that flew far away.

Some residents were seen sitting in front of the shop which closed for a long time because it was deserted, and that morning they’re was busy serving warm tea and makeshift bread, the laughter of the elders sounded crisp.

“Hahaha look at the sun, it’s great”



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

...

Mayor’s residence.

The little bird flew from the tree branch with a cheerful voice, descended to the ground to pick up the crumbs of food, and flew back to the high branch of the tree, the breeze gently caressing the dense leaves on the tree which overnight turned so fresh.

The villa where the Crown Prince’s entourage was staying was definitely uninhabitable after being torn down by ErWang overnight, and while until all the injured guards recovered, the Crown Prince’s entourage would stay in the bungalow behind the mayor’s residence which couldn’t be more honorable than receiving a big guest at his rickety mansion.

In the living room of the bungalow, FuLan was seen moaning as her maid bandaged the wound on her finger from last night’s incident.

“Ouch”

Meanwhile, BeiYau who was in the other small bungalow beside the big house with his men was busy checking on his injured subordinates.

“Does this still hurt?”

While in one of the rooms on the inside.

LuoXiang sat on the edge of the bed where BaiYing was already sitting propped up on the bed with a big smile on his face, although his face was still pale from last night’s events that left him deeply injured, he still didn’t know what would happen to the child once the Bloodstone pieces disappeared from him, however, according to healer Wan he was only a little weak, at least it made LuoXiang a little relieved now.

He couldn’t stop stroking BaiYing’s cheeks and head.

“Hey you, you can’t eat heavy just yet, just porridge for now”

BaiYing sulked.

“Akkch Your Majesty, but I am very hungry”

........

Drap Drap Drap Drap.

The galloping of horses hooves sped toward the camp built near the waterfall where ErWang was last seen last night, YueWang’s party still didn’t move after losing the young dragon last night, due to the arrival of the Crown Prince who quickly cut the ropes that bound the young dragon and made the dragon, fly away quickly vanish into the dark night.

YueWang who was enjoying his tea with a still annoyed face glanced at his men who entered the tent and immediately lowered his body to his knees.

“Report Your Majesty, I have spread my men all over the Kili border, all the caves, but can’t find any apparition of ErWang anywhere.”

YueWang held his breath, he clenched his fists while gritting his teeth and hitting the table with his fists.

Pragg!! the teacup had lifted and almost fell.

“God damn it! That young man is so presumptuous, he released ErWang that we’ve worked so hard to lure out, maybe he already killed him somewhere”

Eunuch Sheng lowered his head in front of YueWang.

“Godfather, it’s very unlikely that ErWang is dead, all the elements have returned to their original balance, it’s likely that ErWang may have ascended to the sky”

YueWang stood up, shook his wide sleeves, and raised his fists into a tight fist.

“That’s just the legend of Sheng’er, the young dragon ErWang is a land dweller, forever he will never rise to the top of the heaven, if that happens the balance in this world will be shaken, the earth dragon will continue to be in its place controlling all the weather until he can find successor, which is very difficult to find nowadays”

“Godfather, so it’s mean the young dragon ErWang will never be able to ascend to the heavens before finding a successor?”

Yue Wang nodded.

“With so many serpents in LiuYang Deep forest, it won’t be difficult to find a successor, but, it could be hundreds of years later, at that time a new Bloodstone will be given back to the successor, what a shame, once a hundred years chance is gone just like that, that kid is really insolent.”

The old man held back his anger until his face was red, he returned to his seat.

“We are going back Sheng’er, think of the next plan”

Eunuch Sheng lowered his head.

“Yess Godfather!”

...

The water that comes down from the bamboo stems flowing with water and knocks on the rock surface is like a musical rhythm that is very melodious in the ears of anyone who hears it. The gentle wind waves the small yellow bamboo trees that grow close together as if the background music that accompanies it, is very beautiful to hear, not to mention the sound of a small bird chirping up from the top of the tree to play for a while on the grass.

The arid LiuYang area slowly began to be visited by nature’s best friend as the air began to warm.

Once upon a time, ErWang was a serpent that controlled the air element, there were four serpents that controlled the weather and it was destined that only one could finally change its form into a young dragon, that governed all the elements of weather, air, water, earth, and fire, four the elements had to work together, otherwise, the city would be like LiuYang and the surrounding valleys which had been in drought for sixty years.

LuoXiang stood at the edge of the fish pond, his mind drifting far away while looking far ahead of where groups of koi fish were swimming freely to and fro, he stroked his chin, reminiscing what the young dragon ErWang had said last night.

.....

“King of the Heaven, you are a very bright young man, even from a distance your light looks very bright, it’s amazing, but, do you realize that your light is only bright when you are close to the kid who has kept the bloodstone for ten years in his body? And now that the stone has come out, the light will also get dimmer, you must cherish all your time with him young man, because someday, he may go far from you”
