CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

The Crown Prince widened his eyes. Had that person been harbouring Bai Ying’s blood all this time? But how could the blood have stayed so thick after so long?

“You?” The Crown Prince gripped Bai Ying’s hand tightly.

He opened his arms pushing the black slimy creature that charged toward them. Opening their mouths revealing their sharp teeth towards Bai Ying.

“Bei! Kill them all! Don’t let that creature get out of here!” cried the Crown Prince.

Bei Yau and Yo Tang who was busy defending themself against the onslaught of the many creatures that kept coming answered as best they could. Their position already shifted quite a distance from the Crown Prince and Bai Ying.

“Ready Your Majesty!”

The young guard raised his sword that had been out of its scabbard long ago and slashed at the leech with ease. Of course, because he used his inner strength as well, those creatures weren’t easy opponents.

By Luo Xiang’s side. He didn’t let any creature get close to him and Bai Ying. Holding Bai Ying’s hand tightly behind him, one hand flicked his inner strength easily pushing all the creatures away from him. The Crown Prince’s inner strength is great, it’s no big deal. However, the longer the number of creatures that came more and more and more aggressive, all came closer to him because they could smell the sweat on Bai Ying’s body which continued to flow from exhaustion.

.....

“Your Majesty, there are a lot of them.”

The Crown Prince looked at old man Lao who was sitting quietly at one of the tables some distance away from the battle crowd while enjoying some wine. What is that person planning? Killing Bai Ying and everyone there? He’s gone mad.

.........

The Crown Prince opened his wide palms into the air. Putting forth his inner strength knocked out all those ugly creatures in one fell swoop. The strong impact knocked down all the attacking creatures but another came from below.

Bai Ying was startled to feel something crawl from under his clothes.

“Akh, Your Majesty” something that bit his leg and make it ooze fresh blood.

“Ying!” Luo Xiang pulled Bai Ying and crushed the creature that had bitten his leg with one swoop. The creature came in endless numbers, it kept coming.

“Bei!” Luo Xiang exclaimed. All overwhelmed, human blood and slimy creatures become one in a room where the bodies blend into one.

“Your Honour! That creature is afraid of white fire!” Ye Lu shouted while throwing the creature that came with his black chain wrapped in white flames. The flames that matched Ye Lu’s inner strength were slowly fading since he was exhausted.

“White flames?” Bai Ying thought. He looked at his two palms, could he still spit out the flames from his hands?

Everyone was defending themself hard, even the Crown Prince who was very perceptive had to be overwhelmed by the endless number of creatures.

Just as he was thinking a voice came from outside.

“They came when they smelled carrion flowers! All those flowers are planted around the college, of course, they will keep coming if the flowers are still there!” that voice, was Lo Yi and a few red-clothed people who had already come.

Among them was someone who Bai Ying knew very well. Already smiling broadly looking at him.

“You can kill them, my sweet little brother”

“B-brother” Bai Ying widened his eyes, it was Chen Ming who came with Xiao Hong.

Chen Ming in Xiao Hong’s protection spread his red flames to burn all the leeches around them and walked Bai Ying.

Luo Xiang waved his hand at the leeches that shot towards them about to attack Bai Ying. The blood that ran down his legs made all the leeches go crazy.

“Bei you hear that look for all the corpse flowers that grow around the clan, dig them out and burn them to nothing, otherwise these creatures will never run out.”

Bei was just about to answer when he heard the Old Lao’s laughter.

“Hahaha, it’s useless for you to do that, at first it is the corpse flower who attracts those creatures’ attention, but, now, the Little King’s blood smells much more delicious. They can smell from a very long distance, they will go crazy and destroy everyone without a trace, even after the people here are exhausted, the creatures will come down the mountain and kill all of the citizens. Hahahaha this is so great.”

While everyone was busy listening to the man speak, suddenly a black object shot through the man’s body. It was the same black iron as Ye Lu’s, however, the young man just stand still where he was. Then, who did it?

Old man Lao widened his eyes. Looking at the black iron that pierced his chest with a mouth that oozed fresh blood. See who the person who appears is then. The figure of a big tall man in all black clothes and a long, shiny robe that was blown by the wind. He was none other than Du Gu Ye Wang. Slowly he pulled the black iron from the old man’s chest who immediately fell to his knees on the floor.

“Ekh, y-you”

Du Gu Ye Wang was already standing in front of Luo Xiang who was still busy protecting Bai Ying while blowing away all the ugly creatures that were approaching, even when Xiao Hong’s flames didn’t do much to prevent those creatures to approach.

“What a noisy old man, how dare he makes a fuss by bringing the Poison Valley Clan’s good reputation everywhere”

Everyone widened their eyes not expecting that person to have arrived in their room. Even Luo Xiang didn’t like it that much, but that person had already finished off the man who made this mess, a mess that wouldn’t end even though the pore had fallen on the floor covered in blood and eyes wide open.

Du Gu Ye Wang looked at the Crown Prince and finally saw Bai Ying for a long time. He then folded his sleeves where the black iron was pulled back under his sleeves. Ye Lu who saw him trying to hide behind Xi Hu, that man, clearly recognized him very well, he was his Big First Brother, Ye Wang. Xi Hu was aware of that. While repelling the relentless attacks of the leeches he covered Ye Lu’s body behind him. In fact, the man seemed to have seen Ye Lu’s presence there.

But Du Gu Ye Wang still rushed out of the room.

“I will remove the corpse flower, the flower is on four sides of the college, it takes four people to do it,” said the man and stomped his foot flying out of the hall.

Chen Ming and Xiao Hong looked at each other, also at Bei Yau, the three of them immediately headed for the door to scatter in all directions.

Elder Yi who threw out his shadowless fist easily knocked down many leeches at once, but even if he was a divine master he would still be overwhelmed by the undetermined number of creatures.

“Your Majesty, Xiao Ying, it’s true what the old man said, these creatures will not stop coming because of the smell of the Viceroy’s blood, even if the corpse flower is pulled out, they will still come. The most appropriate way to kill them is to lure all the creatures into the room and burn them instantly without residue with white flames. That’s the only way, Your Majesty, don’t let them leave the mountain and attack the citizens. Their numbers at that time will be uncontrollable” Elder Yi exclaimed.

Luo Xiang looked at Bai Ying who was in pain, but at that moment he couldn’t complain. The Crown Prince knew how much the boy had restrained himself with his face already pale from the blood that wouldn’t stop flowing.

“Ying, hold on, you can use your healing energy, concentrate your mind” Luo Xiang whispered.

Bai Ying bit his lips. He shook his head.

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty heard what Elder Yi said, we must lure all those creatures into this room and burn them to nothing. Can I still do it? I’ve never been able to bring out those white flames, all this, Servant who made those creatures come and attack everyone, Your Majesty, what if they attack the citizens, poor of them, what should we do now?”

Luo Xiang held both of Bai Ying’s shoulders, and lowered his head to see the young man’s sad and helpless face, he had already lost a lot of blood and still had to endure the pain. All the bad thoughts had also entered his head. Luo Xiang smiled.

“Fools, of course, you can do it, my Ying Ying can always” He saw Bai Ying’s face who was holding up his tears for a long time until he lowered his head to kiss the young man’s lips. Bai Ying’s eyes went wide. How in this situation the Crown Prince still managed to kiss him? In front of everyone, among the leeches that attacked them.

“Umpp!”
