CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

467 The Spirit Butterflies

“Your Majesty, how can it live in such cold weather like this?” Xiao Hong asked seeing a few butterflies approaching, not just a few, but more and more that come swarming to them, a bluish-white butterfly with golden powder flapping from its wings flew towards Bai Ying and the others.

“Be careful, this is no ordinary butterfly.” Chen Ming readied his sword, and the number of butterflies instantly filled the garden.

“Brother, why are there so many of them?” Bai Ying asked widening his eye. He winced as the butterfly that landed in his hand stung him.

“Akh!”

After stinging him, the large butterfly decomposed and disappeared with the wind, instantly a black colour was seen running under the skin where the stung was, burning sensation that’s spread to his blood vessels so fast.

Xiao Hong took out the fiery flames sword that was already coiled around in his hand ready to attack if the butterfly were to attack them.

“Your Majesty, what are these things?”

Chen Ming shook his head, he also didn’t know what they were facing right now, the pretty but fierce butterfly swarm ready to charge at them.

Bai Ying’s eyes shone red. Pain suddenly felt throughout his body, all because of the small sting earlier. Quick he released his green heal energy which instantly burned all the poison that had flowed into his blood earlier, it was nothing to him.

.....

“Brother becareful, they are poisonous.”

Bai Ying immediately opened his palms cast protecting spell to his brother and Xiao Hong in the yellow circle.

“Brother what are you doing?” Chen Ming exclaimed.

From inside the house, Shin Ya and Ye Lu appeared, their eyes wide open to see so many butterflies that had gathered there.

“Your Honour!”

Shin Ya approached Bai Ying who single-handedly cast his white flames driving the butterflies away, but there were so many of them Bai Ying couldn’t hold them all.

“Master Shin, they are poisonous, don’t let them out of the garden area!” Bai Ying exclaimed.

Shin Ya nodded, the shaman brought his palms together, opened them in a large circle of hands and created a large protective sphere that prevented the butterflies from leaving the garden area.

“Yes Your Majesty”

Xiao Hong stepped out from within the protective circle, the young bird only needed to step over with his body shrouded in crimson flames and exited Bai Ying’s protective circle with ease, leaving Chen Ming there alone.

“Your Majesty, I’ll help!” Xiao Hong exclaimed throwing his red fireball which instantly burned the thin bodies of the butterflies which looked beautiful but were extremely dangerous. Bai Ying’s eyes went wide when he saw that the golden dust from the butterfly that was scorched by the crimson flames did not catch fire, instead it flew towards Xiao Hong.

“No, Xiao Hong get out of the way!” Bai Ying exclaimed while pushing Xiao Hong’s body with the wind from his hands.
The gold dust that fell to the ground instantly made the snow melt and the grass beneath it died instantly.

Ye Lu threw the black chain that came out of the black ring on his middle finger hitting several butterflies that fell to the ground, the butterflies fell and instantly death, it’s body dry as leaves because of its own golden dust poison.



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

Ye Lu’s black chain can now even emit white flames that wrap around it, if Ye Lu is too eager to use it.

“This is great”

Their numbers dwindle, Shin Ya protected Ye Lu and Xiao Hong with a layer of armor that he had developed so that it only covered some parts of the body that could be exposed to poison.

“Your Majesty, the poison is very dangerous, what should we do?” Shin Ya exclaimed.

The crowd cerbtainly makes everyone to run there. From the house, the Crown Prince and Second Prince, as well as Xi Lei who was discussing came out, all shocked to see what had happened in such a short time.

Luo Xiang’s eyes widened as he saw Bai Ying standing in the center of the large protective circle that prevented all the butterflies from escaping but also prevented him and the others from coming in to help.

“Ying Ying!” The Crown Prince readied his sword. But Luo Yan’s hand held him.

“Crown Prince, what are you going to do?” he asked.

Luo Xiang looked at Luo Yan sharply.

“What else? Of course helping them?”

Luo Yan pointed at the circle where Chen Ming was also in the small circle created by Bai Ying, preventing him from going out to help everyone.

“Younger brother! Let me out! This kid!” Chen Ming exclaimed who couldn’t break through Bai Ying’s protective circle.

Luo Xiang knew he wouldn’t be able to get inside even if he tried.

“Ying Ying!”

Meanwhile on the other side of the building, Prince Yue Huan also appeared with Xi Hu and other minor officials.

“What happened?” Xi Hu widened his eyes see within the protective circle where countless butterflies were flying attacking everyone inside.

“Where did they come from?” Xi Hu exclaimed. Prince Yue Huan was seen clenching his fists, he was trying to back away. Xi Hu looked at him sharply, the Prince’s behaviour looked strange holding on to the wall blocks so tight and hiding, maybe because he was very scared.

“Prince, are you alright?”

Meanwhile, Luo Xiang turned to Mu Chun who was standing beside Xi Lei.

“Old man, what is this? Where did this poisonous butterfly come from?” asked the Crown Prince.

Mu Chun lowered his head.

“Report Your Majesty, I just saw it too, this might the well known spirit butterfly that usually only resides in the depths of the Black forest and has never come out, I only heard the legend, how did they get here, it’s very strange, butterfly- spirit moths cannot fly far and will disappear for a while and be dissipated by their own poison”

“Then how did they get here now?” asked the Crown Prince.

Xi Lei looked around, so far not a single spirit butterfly has managed to get out of the forest, has anyone taken it with them? But who?

“Spirit butterflies can regenerate very quickly after consuming the corpses of living creatures such as humans and large animals, from their size it looks like they just emerged from their cocoons, it is said, the poison from the gold powder is so powerful it can even kill a cow farm, but, I never thought they could make it to this house,so far from the forest” added Xi Lei.

However, even though there were many, the butterflies were slowly being scorched by Bai Ying’s white flames, leaving not even a single remnant, all up to the golden dust that burned above the sky before it even touched the ground.

Bai Ying made sure that all the butterflies were no longer left so nodded at Shin Ya to disband his protective circle, as well as Bai Ying’s protective circle.

“Ying Ying!” Without thinking the Crown Prince immediately approached Bai Ying.

“Everyone be careful, the gold dust may still left in the air” Shin Ya shouted.

Luo Xiang didn’t care, he immediately walked over to Bai Ying who was standing in the middle of everything, the boy looked confused, all the sounds around him sounded buzzing, until his body finally fell limp.

“Ying Ying!” just as the Crown Prince approached and caught him before he fell to the ground.

Everyone was shocked.

“Xiao Ying!” Chen Ming shouted who was running fast approaching.

And somehow, Bai Ying was already slumped in the Crown Prince’s arms, he was unconscious.

“Ying Ying!” The Crown Prince check Bai Ying’s entire body, there was no wound on him, but he saw a very small puncture hole on Bai Ying’s right hand knuckle where the veins around him turned black.

“Oh how did this happen?”

...

Butterfly valley.

The sound of laughter echoes through the deserted valley, where only a sound of wind and water flows near it.

Someone, with long black shiny hair, and a big beautiful wide silk dress stands barefoot with her back in front of Bai Ying who walks closer. The laugh was from her.

Bai Ying thinks he knows her, he has met her a couple of times but never seen her face up, until now.

A very beautiful young woman looks like in her twenties and smiles beautifully as Bai Ying stepped closer, he knew her.

“Queen Bo Yan” her face resembles someone he might saw in his dream a while ago, Princess Yao Nie.

The lady turned her whole body to him, her face so pretty as the morning sun, clear pair of eyes as the ocean, white smooth flawless skin as porcelain, she’s perfect no matter what angle you saw her.

She approaches Bai Ying who is stunned at his position, and can’t even move his feet.

“Oh my, my beautiful King, I really can’t wait to see you and touch your smooth flawless skin with my hand, oh look at this very delicate face, have can there’s a very perfect being like this, how can I’m not obsessed with you, my honey”
