CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

454 Predestined

The sun turned a little orange. After a hard day’s work warming up the plains of the humid Cloud forest, the sun which reflects its rays at the Chi Yun’s lake surface now slowly descends to its resting place.

Bai Ying and the Crown Prince stood by the lake, while Luo Xiang hugged Bai Ying from behind remembering the colder air as the afternoon approached.

“Em, is Ying cold? Want to go back to the room?” Luo Xiang asked.

Bai Ying who was looking straight at the middle of the lake shook his head.

“No, Your Majesty, later, let’s enjoy the view of Chi Yun Lake before it gets dark, who knows, we won’t be able to see it again soon,” said Bai Ying.

Luo Xiang tightened his embrace, covered Bai Ying’s fairly small body and disappeared into his embrace, holding Bai Ying’s hands in front of him, lowering his head on the young man’s small shoulders.

“Em, what is Ying thinking? Don’t think too hard, the battle this time, might be a bit tougher than before, however, the black snake and black turtle were not the opponents of this great Realm King, and moreover, the Realm King had many people beside him who would always help him, so this no big deal for us.”

Bai Ying grabbed the Crown Prince’s big hand that was holding both hands, gripping it tightly.

“Yeah, but I’m still worried, I have a bad feeling, like, something really bad is going to happen.”

.....

Luo Xiang held his breath, lest Bai Ying hears his worries, something that had been on his mind all this time.

This afternoon when everyone had left Elder Yi’s residence, the Crown Prince stayed behind to ask the old young man for advice.

Elder Yi had time to open his eyes wide at Luo Xiang’s words just now.

“Golden ray?” he asked.

Luo Xiang nodded.

“That’s right, that energy appeared when facing Huo Li, in a moment of danger, golden energy appeared in my palm, somehow but it gave me an extremely formidable power that could push Huo Li’s strength back, that, definitely wasn’t Ying Ying’s energy right? There is no golden energy from him.”

Elder Yi stroked his chin in deep thought.

“Hemh, it could be the King Realm’s energy, adapting within His Majesty’s body, or, it could be His Majesty’s own power. Currently, the four elements are almost discovered, and the last element is water, but, actually, it is not the last element, it is said that there is still one element that is at the centre of everything, the golden dragon in the middle, looking at the layout, Yue Yang palace is indeed in the centre, however, it’s highly unlikely that the Heavenly King will be the centre of the elements.”

Luo Xiang frowned deeply, looking at the old Elder Yi.

“What do you mean, it can’t be Elder Yi? What does it mean to be the last element?” he asked curiously, he waited anxiously while Elder Yi slowly took a breath, and turned his head towards him.

“Your Majesty, forgive me for saying this, but, according to mystical historical records, with the appearance of the last element, that, the sign, the existence of a Realm King will be threatened, one of you, must disappear from the face of the earth”

Luo Xiang widened his eyes and clenched his fists strong.

“That can’t be Elder Yi, what do you mean by disappearing?”

Elder Yi grabbed his cup, looked at it for a while before taking a sip.

“It was destined Your Majesty, servant, don’t know the exact story, but the King of Nature only appears when all the elements are asleep, and when the five elements gather, he will disappear with nature. I never expected that the King of Nature would carry out a mission as big as At this point, I thought, that the Realm King, or Bai Ying, might be the fifth element, so it wouldn’t be a problem for him to gather all those elements into his little body, but if this were the reality, if the fifth element turned out to be the Crown Prince, that would mean, there will be no more Realm Kings.”

Luo Xiang swallowed his saliva whole.

“No, I won’t let this happen, then I don’t want to become the fifth element, whatever it is. It’s all meaningless if Bai Ying isn’t around, fifth element or whatever isn’t important, Elder Yi, do something, what can I do to prevent the fifth element from awakening?” Luo Xiang asked worriedly.

Elder Yi put his cup slowly on the table. He saw the Crown Prince who was staring at him deeply.

“That, Your Majesty can’t stop it, after all for this world to be balanced, the fifth element must appear, at a critical moment it will appear and protect everyone, and no power in this world can stop it”

“But that’s impossible, I am an ordinary human, not a mystical being like Xiao Hong or Er Wang, how can I become the fifth element? This must be wrong right? It just so happens that I have golden energy, it’s not necessarily the fifth element.”

Elder Yi pulled his lips.

“That could happen, Your Majesty, at a time when all the elements have awakened and the King of Realm has already obtained more than half of the elements, it is only natural for the fifth element to appear at this time, and, become the possessor of the fifth element is the destiny of the greatest human on earth, you don’t need any mystical being to possess that powerful energy, everything is predestined since Your Majesty was born.”

Luo Xiang looked at his palm, his eyes wide.

“No, I won’t give that energy a chance, if I have to lose Ying Ying because of this, it’s better not to show up at all.”

Bai Ying’s touch brought Luo Xiang out of his thoughts.

“Your Majesty, what do you thinking about?” Bai Ying asked looking at Luo Xiang who was looking at him with a bit of surprise.

The Crown Prince smiled.

“Hey, what was I thinking? Nothing, erm, it’s getting late, we’re leaving for Ku Chang tomorrow afternoon, we’d better get some rest in our room okay?”

Bai Ying pursed his lips, nodding a little unenthusiastically.

“Alright Your Majesty, let’s go back.”

Luo Xiang took Bai Ying’s hand and walked along the path along the edge of the lake, the sky was slowly getting darker, and a cold wind was blowing slowly. Bai Ying smiled as the Crown Prince’s palm gripped him tightly, pulling him gently all the way.

“We will come back here again, also to Lui He, Brother promise that, we will often enjoy our boringness after all this is over”

Bai Ying nodded.

“Yeah, Ying can’t wait for that time”

Bai Ying followed the Crown Prince’s steps, he knew the Crown Prince so well that he thought that there was something on the Crown Prince’s mind now. Bai Ying grasped the Crown Prince’s hand tightly, grabbed his arm with his other hand and walked side by side towards their bungalow.

Don’t understand what he was thinking, but one is certain, he would never let go of the Crown Prince’s hand, ever.

“Your Majesty, look at the moon, it’s so beautiful,” said Bai Ying pointing in front of them, where the big moon slowly appeared behind the clouds.

Luo Xiang smiled.

“Yeah, it’s really pretty, it’s bigger than at the Peony Valley back then.”

Bai Ying frowned.

“Really? I think it’s the same, it’s just yellower, maybe because this Cloud Forest is in a fairly high area.”

Luo Xiang stopped his steps. Making Bai Ying frown in confusion, the Crown Prince suddenly pulled his hand and hugged him. Very closely.

“Your Majesty, what are you have in your mind? Something has made you restless”

Luo Xiang dropped his head on Bai Ying’s shoulder, and embraced the boy with both hands burying his whole body in his embrace, he shook his head slowly.

“Nothing, Ying, I didn’t think about anything, big brother just wanted to hug you like this, forever like this, never let go of my hugs, okay?”

Bai Ying nodded. He raised his arms around the Crown Prince’s waist.

“Of course Your Majesty, I will never let go, we have said that many times, haven’t we? No matter what happens, Ying will be back to Your Majesty, as well as Your Majesty, no matter what happens, Your Majesty can never leave Ying alone, that is our oath, that is, our number ten agreement right?”

Luo Xiang nodded.

He smiled, but couldn’t stop his tears from falling, he had never cried again since his mother died that day and since he thought he also lost his Ying Ying that day, until now, he couldn’t hold something so heavy that keep pushing it as if it ready to explode out from his chest.

Luo Xiang held his breath, he didn’t want Bai Ying to hear his voice choked with tears, Luo Xiang immediately lifted his head to wipe his tears.
