CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

415 Xiao Hong’s

Luo Xiang whose inner strength increased tens of times from before because of the energy that Bai Ying gave him seemed to dominate the situation, even though he couldn’t spit out red flames from his hand but he could create a protective circle from a flick of his hand, Bai Ying’s aura can also be used. Luo Xiang himself was a bit surprised by what he had, but his skills and battle experience made his reactions very fast and could take things under control very quickly.

“Whossh!”

Luo Xiang kicked one foot in the air and spun around looking for an opportunity to kick Huo Li’s body as he let out his crimson flames, and he succeeded.

“Brukk!”

Just as red flames shot out of his palm, Luo Xiang protected himself with a protective circle and pushed Huo Li’s body far down onto the ground.

Even though, Huo Li who was so strong didn’t fall down right away, he was careless but still managed to release his inner strength that held his body with one foot on the ground before he fell.

The man smirked, looking at Luo Xiang with his big eyes while wiping the blood that was dripping from the edge of his lips.

“Hehe, this is very interesting, Your Highness the Crown Prince, you really are a formidable opponent”

Luo Xiang smirked, he was not going to waste his time talking too much, immediately he shot back at the man with his sword, his shiny long sword with that sharp wind that could cut anything.

.....

“Sheets!”

By Bai Ying’s side.

Slowly the young man opened his eyes, holding Chen Ming’s hand holding him. For a moment, his eyes glowed red as he gathered his power back into his body.

“Brother”

Chen Ming turned his head and saw Bai Ying who was exhausted and trying to sit up.

“Slow down little brother”

Bai Ying looked towards the battlefield, ordinary eyes would only be able to see two red and gold-coloured shadows revolving within the wind circle, but his eyes could see Luo Xiang and Huo Li’s bodies hitting each other.

Bai Ying sat down, and hold on to Chen Ming who was grabbing his hand anxiously.

“Brother, are you all right?” Chen Ming asked.

Bai Ying nodded, he smiled.

“It’s okay Brother, where are Guard Bei and master Su?” asked the young man.

“They went to save the royal family and King Bu Ye, these people are not equal opponents against Bei or Su Lang, they only rely on Huo Li, so their chances of succeeding are very high”

Bai Ying looked far away with his inner eyes.

“Brother, we must also save Xiao Hong, only he can take the bloodstone from Huo Li’s body, otherwise His Highness the Crown Prince’s efforts might be in vain because even if Huo Li can be brought down, he will not be able to die”

Chen Ming looked at the circle of wind in the centre of the field.

Indeed, the battle between the two was so extraordinary that it could not be followed by the common eye, but even though the Crown Prince was now in control of the battle, Bai Ying’s words were true, that all would be in vain if Huo Li still had the bloodstone in his body.

......

Very dark dungeon.

The only sound was the sound of water droplets hitting the stone on the cold floor. A person’s body just lay on the floor, helpless with big chains locking his hands and feet, his face was no longer visible because of the beard that grew all over it. His thin body was only covered with bones, looking pathetic. However, the look in his eyes was very sharp, when he lifted his head because he heard a sound that, although very small, could make his earlobe move.

The small room was only a large rock where the person was without being able to go anywhere with all the chains wrapped around his legs and arms, while the surroundings were pitch-black water. Whatever was in it seemed to move because of the turbulent water.

The man, clearly visible from his bare upper body without any clothes, only wearing tattered torn pants that he had not changed for who knows how long he had not changed, lifted his body to listen more carefully.

Bai Ying and Chen Ming, along with Ge Lu had already discovered the dungeon door which was much deeper than they had imagined. The vibe that Xiao Hong gave them brought them there.

Bai Ying stopped in front of the door, the pressure was intense as soon as his feet stepped on the inside of the secret room which was located some distance away in an old, uninhabited building at the back of the great Gao palace.

A shrill scream rang out in Bai Ying’s head.

“Ahhh!”

Chen Ming holds Bai Ying’s body as the young man stepped back, the room was indeed very dark and stuffy, in fact, there was almost no air there, and recently because it was just opened there were footprints on the dusty floor, other than that, nothing seemed to be moved from there before.

“Are you alright Ying?”

Bai Ying shook his head.

“Just a very loud sound Brother, Xiao Hong’s”

Bai Ying pays close to the dark room in front of them.

“This, what kind of place is this?” Chen Ming was a little hesitant to step in, but if it really was the place where Huo Li had hidden Xiao Hong, the room would definitely not be as simple as they were looking at right now, it would be more empty and terrifying rooms. He held Bai Ying’s hand tightly.

“Come on Brother, hold my hand tight, let’s go in, you feel Xiao Hong present around here, didn’t you?”

Bai Ying nodded.

Although his chest felt a bit tight, but they had to find the bird.

Ge Lu was at the very front with his sword drawn, anything could emerge from within the dark and very quiet room, not even the sound of wind could be heard at all.

“Your Majesty, I’ve heard the story about the Gao Palace which has room to store all mystical and subtle creatures, what, this might be the place.”

Hearing that Bai Ying and Chen Ming opened their eyes wide.

“Mystical creature?” both exclaimed at the same time.

Ge Lu nodded.

“Yeah, but, it’s been a long time, since the coronation of the new King, I’ve never heard that story again,” continued Ge Lu.

Bai Ying held Chen Ming’s hand tightly, bringing him closer.

“Eh, Y-you mean, by the subtle creature, what is that Guard Ge? What it, some kind of ghost?”

Chen Ming was uncomfortable with Bai Ying who suddenly held him so tightly that it was difficult for him to move.

“Brother”

Ge Lu furrowed his brows in thought, he scratched his head.

“That, I also don’t really understand about that, Your Majesty, it could be something like that”

Bai Ying was afraid of ghosts, he got closer to Chen Ming and continued his very heavy steps.

“Ouch Brother, there is a ghost here”

Chen Ming pinched his brother’s nose exasperatedly.

“You, You don’t afraid of Xiao Wu or whatever there are, but why you’re afraid of some invisible beings?”

“Precisely because they’re invisible Brother, that’s why Ying’er is so afraid of them”

Chen Ming rolled his eyes.

“Heh this brat”

...........

The battle in the middle of the field still looks very fierce. Several nearby buildings seemed to be falling apart due to the two’s incredible energy. Several times Luo Xiang was pushed by Huo Li’s flames, but even though his body and clothes were torn apart, the Crown Prince with his still immense strength shot up and lunged back.

Whoossh!

He opened his arms releasing a strong wind that roared like the sound of a roaring dragon.

The intense pressure of his internal energy pushed Huo Li’s body which was already on the ground and was forced to open its legs to withstand Luo Xiang’s attack. Huo Li’s body and face had also been injured here and there, he had to admit the Crown Prince’s extraordinary strength overcame anyone easily, even though he had the energy of a vermilion bird though.

“God damn it!” he kicked one foot behind him as fast as the wind was like a bullet that shot toward Luo Xiang, who had his arms crossed in front of his face to block Huo Li’s attack.

A loud bang rang out in the distance with the ground shaking violently.

“Boom!”

Even from the place where Bei Yau and Su Lang evacuated the Queen and Empress Dowager to a safe place, out of the palace. Even though the situation might be manageable but the energy from the fierce battle against Huo Li might be able to make the common people hurt by it.

“Guard Bei, will His Highness the Crown Prince be all right?” asked Su Lang.

Bei Yau gripped the hilt of his sword tightly. Seeing from a distance where the burst of light from the battle between the Crown Prince and Huo Li seemed like lightning had struck this way.

“His Highness the Crown Prince is so great, beyond what we think, he didn’t need anyone else to protect him before, and now, coupled with the energy bestowed by the King of Realm, currently, there is no one in this world that I know of that can beat him”

Bei Yau’s eyes lit up as he said that, Su Lang swallowed hard, he believed Bei Yau’s words given the current state of the battlefield, it was clear that His Highness the Crown Prince was no ordinary fighter.
