CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

496 From Within

“Insolent! Who did this!” The Crown Prince’s loud voice boomed, no one knew how much anger he got when he saw Bai Ying fall in front of him.

“Brother!” Later Chen Ming approached from behind the crowd, looking at Bai Ying who was already drooping in the Crown Prince’s arms. Chen Ming came closer to see Bai Ying’s hands were clenched as if they were holding something in there.

He was about to open it but Bei Yau’s voice stopped him.

“Prince Chen, stop! It might be a very dangerous fire scorpion!” Bei Yau exclaimed, he saw the box with the clan’s pattern on the ground not far from where Bai Ying had fallen.

Chen Ming’s eyes widened looked at the Crown Prince.

“Crown Prince, do something.”

The injured Lo Yi tried to crawl over.

“Hoh Ying, Ying, may have been bitten, the only way to save him is to let someone else be bitten and drink the blood of that person, do something fast, let me be bitten,” said Lo Yi trying to get closer and grab Bai Ying’s hand. But the Crown Prince shook off the man’s grip.

“Don’t touch my Ying Ying, how dare you touch him?” The Crown Prince’s sharp eyes made Lo Yi’s chest tremble, anger was evident even though the two men looked quite calm.

.....

Luo Xiang grabbed Bai Ying’s hand and opened it without hesitation, not caring that the scorpion might bite him too, but, everyone held their breath when they saw what was in the young man’s palm.

“Huh? Our scorpion! Where is it?” exclaimed one of the higher-ups of the scorpion clan who had fallen to the ground, seeing from Bai Ying’s palm there was nothing but white ashes flying in the wind, where did their mystical creatures go? The two men looked at each other, this, was doom.

Luo Xiang was also surprised, although he couldn’t be more relieved than anything, he hugged Bai Ying’s limp body and lifted him up.

“Heh, smart boy” he kissed Bai Ying’s forehead and hugged him tightly, leaving Lo Yi still stunned where he was.

“Young master! Do something! W-what can I do? Ying-er!”

Luo Xiang looked towards Bei Yau, glancing sharply at the young man who was already helplessly on the ground.

Bei Yau nodded, he understood the meaning of the Crown Prince’s gaze even when he didn’t say anything.

“Ready Your Majesty” lowered his head as the Crown Prince passed him.

While Lo Yi looked helpless, he tried to get up after the Crown Prince who took Bai Ying away.

“Ying er!” he let two young bodyguards help him up.

While the two higher-ups from the Scorpion clan approached their comrade who had already fallen and was motionless on the ground, two eyes bulged with a gaping wound on his chest that continued to bleed.

“Elder Pu, Elder Pu” the two men looked at Lo Yi being taken away, this time they had been defeated so bad, and both of them flung their hands in annoyance.

“Damn it!”

........

Luo Xiang lowered Bai Ying’s body onto the bed. Chen Ming was anxious because he could clearly feel the heat emanating from his brother.

“Rotten Crown Prince, do something! Anything to push the poison out!” he exclaimed seeing Luo Xiang who looked quite calm in his place.

Xiao Hog stepped forward, he opened his palm releasing the red flames that were already swirling above his palm.

“Your Majesty, let me do it, the fire of the red bird can burn any poison”

The young man’s face was so hot and red as if it burning from the inside, he held Bai Ying’s hand tightly and could feel the energy within him clearly, his body kept shaking.

“We can’t Hong, we don’t know what’s inside Ying’s right now”

Luo Xiang felt his hand was burning, so hot. Luo Xiang sat up straight when he saw that Bai Ying had opened his eyes, but his eyes were shining bright red.

The youth got up and sat looking at Luo Xiang with a pair of big eyes.

“Ying Ying” The Crown Prince raised his hand to touch Bai Ying but the youth opened his palm and let out a ball of fire that was aimed at the Crown Prince’s face.

The Crown Prince managed to dodge and grabbed Bai Ying’s two hands pushing him back onto the bed. Instantly the young man’s body emitted an immeasurable heat that burned the bed and the entire room.

“Xiao Ying!” Chen Ming shouted, but Bai Ying was already in a trance, the kid didn’t hesitate to attack the Crown Prince with flames coming out of his two palms. But since when did that kid get his powers back?

“Your Majesty, don’t come any closer” Xiao Hong shouted holding Chen Ming’s body forward. He immediately opened his palms releasing crimson flames that swirled to dispel large flames spreading throughout the room.

Luo Xiang pulled Bai Ying’s hand who was staring at him as if he was his enemy. He was about to pull his hand but Luo Xiang hit the young man’s chest and punched the blood trail on his neck, instantly the young man fell into his arms, but the energy he had expended did not subside.

“Heh, this kid” Luo Xiang pushed Bai Ying’s body and made him sit with his back to him.

“Prince Chen, stay away, I will try to neutralize his inner strength with mine”

Luo Xiang turned Bai Ying’s body and lowered his clothes which immediately revealed his innocent back.

“What? Rotten Crown Prince you will only make it worse!” Chen Ming exclaimed, he tried to get closer but was too late because the inner circle of the Crown Prince had already covered him and Bai Ying within.

Once again Chen Ming and Xiao Hong tried to get closer but the rush of the Crown Prince’s inner strength sent everyone crashing down.

“Ah!”

“If I don’t lock him he will burn all this place down, you better get out of here,” said the Crown Prince in a calm voice. Although his inner strength and Bai Ying’s profound energy roared through the air as if blending into one another, the sound was as loud as the roar of a dragon swirling through the sky.

“Arrrghhh!”

And shook the inn building and the ground around it until everyone standing on the ground fell from the shaking.

“Ah!”

Bei Yau who was outside the inn building saw what was happening with big eyes, the inn side where the Crown Prince’s room was located was completely engulfed in flames.

“Your Majesty” without thinking the young bodyguard rushed over there.

.....

The torrential rain had just stopped, still leaving a dot that fell from the blackened wooden peg that mistook the second-floor roof.

Finally, the fire was extinguished but the room on the second floor of the inn was completely burnt. The owner of the inn lamented the fate of his inn which was badly damaged, not to mention the heavy rain that had caused the previously fragile building to fall and almost made the entire floor fall. But the big, stocky man smiled broadly at the two bags with very heavy gold coins in his hands. At least his guest was still generous in giving him enough compensation to even build a new building.

“Come on, Xiao er, let’s build a new and much better inn. We’ve been wanting to renovate it for a long time, if it wasn’t for this incident, we would never be able to build a new building,” said the inn owner. The few little servants who were standing with him watched the big inn crumble bit by bit following their boss.

“Wow, congrats boss, we can have a new building, right?”

“Boss, please build the bigger kitchen, boss, and can I buy new cooking utensils, the old ones can’t be used anymore,” said the old man who was still wearing an apron, he was an inn cook.

“Hehehe of course, old man, who still wants to use the old one? This is enough to buy all the new equipment, let’s find a handyman first, look for a cheap and good one, okay?”

“Yes, boss” shouted the waiters who brought along a bag of clothes leaving the inn area which was almost razed to the ground.

.....

The golden carriage has hit the road again.

The Crown Prince did not delay the trip even though Bai Ying was still unwell.

By noon the group finally arrived outside the city of Su Chou and headed for Sui Lian. The group stayed overnight at Su Ping’s residence to rest.

With great care, Luo Xiang lowered Bai Ying’s body onto the bed in one of the guest rooms in the official Su residence, which was so honoured to accept them back into his home.

“Ekh Your Majesty, where are we?” Bai Ying opened his eyes, and looked at the Crown Prince wistfully, he tried to get up but his whole body ached unbelievably as if something was very heavy holding him down.

“Hey brat, take it easy, you’re just being poisoned”
