CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

375 Belonged to Crown Prince

ChenMing widened his eyes at the King’s question, which was immediately added by the voices of the other guests.

“Yeah, that’s right, the event is still valid, right?”

“Yeah, that’s one of the reasons we came here among others” another voice appeared.

LuoXiang held back his anger, don’t those people know what he means by saying that YingYing is his concubine? Didn’t they hear that earlier?

LuoXiang looked at Princess WuLan who was trying to stop herself from smiling amusedly seeing his red face with anger.

No matter what, the tradition of selecting a concubine for a viceroy was commonplace, and BaiYing was still very young, one or two concubines to serve him would not necessarily be enough for him, and also this event was held long before the YueYang Emperor’s order arrived, although WahYe had the power to resist, it was true what the Crown Prince said, if no matter how strong XinHua was, it still a newborn child who needed the parents’ guidance to crawl, to then walk, and both ChenMing and BaiYing were quite aware of that. Although now and and then XinHua will still have authority over its territory and power, not in politics of course.

The Crown Prince grasped BaiYing’s hand, lifting him up.

“King of XinHua is my concubine, mine, if anyone can beat me, he/she may think that way”

Crown Prince’s words made the guests even more noisy, who could be against such a great Crown Prince? Also, the concubines for the Viceroy were growing up girls of the same age as the King, who could beat the man who was known to be so extraordinarily great?

.....

BaiYing looked confused, he looked at ChenMing and his grandmother, that bedmate selection event, it’s mean, concubine? Why didn’t he think of that? What a fool you are Hua BaiYing.

....

The next day.

The beautiful Xinhua Palace, with a stunning view to the eyes of the previously arid mountain ranges which turning to green, the air in PaiHua that used to be immeasurably hot has become cool, nature with full of fresh air, all kinds of animals from the smallest to the largest have started to scattered to fill the valley which was a Rock Mountain before.

The sound of excited shouts from the young soldiers of Commander FaLu’s men stomped the grassy field in the courtyard of XinHua palace.

“One! Two! Three!”

“Whoa! Ha!!”

Obviously, the XinHua warriors from the WahYe’s fighting clan were not ordinary people, they were very strong and agile young man, could take down three to four opponents at once with their bare hands and more if they used weapons, but XinHua’s military strength was also no guarantee that the country could win against an invading enemy because strength itself is not enough, the experiences on the battlefield are.

BaiYing, who was walking with the Crown Prince enjoying the morning air realized that, smiled seeing how excited everyone in the palace was, doing their activities even before the sun came up to hang over their heads.

BaiYing visited Elder Yi that morning, the man who’s enjoyed his morning routine since his first day came to XinHua, sitting near the field in front of the palace, soaking with the sun light, inviting someone to enjoy the fresh air with him.

“Elder Yi!” cried Bai Ying.

The man immediately turned his head, greet them when he saw BaiYing and the Crown Prince approaching.

“Oh best regards to Your Majesty the King, Your Majesty the Crown Prince”

BaiYing who was walking so excitedly stopped his steps when he saw someone not far near Elder Yi, he changed his facial expression, saw the man who was also turning to look at him, the old man, who’s up until now he couldn’t forgive, nor to see him even onced.

“Eh, Elder Yi”

BaiYing avoided that person’s gaze, he is his great grandfather WuYi, the senile man just stared blankly and didn’t recognize who he was anymore, the Crown Prince was aware of that, he took BaiYing’s hand pulling him closer to Elder Yi.

“Come on YingYing”

...

Before long.

A bluish wind swirled around Bai Ying’s body, blue ligths energy with a few crystals floating around it, blending in with the white flames that also surrounded her body, however, that blue-coloured flame and energy diminished and slowly disappeared as the young man grip his hand, he felt something strange in his chest and it’s had been bothering him all this time, and he wanted to show it to Elder Yi.

Elder Yi touched his chin, looking in awe at what was before his eyes now.

“This, very great Xiao Ying, do you know what that blue energy means?”

BaiYing held his chest, even though it was great but the energy made his chest uncomfortable, LuoXiang stretched out his hand to help BaiYing up and invited him to sit back on their chair.

“I know what it is old man, it’s XiaoWu’s earth elemental energy, I’ve taken out all of his energy and returned it to him, but why is the energy still left in my body? And even though it’s great, it’s really uncomfortable when the energy comes out together with my white fire, can’t I just get rid of it old man?”

Elder Yi chuckled, the young man’s innocent question made him laugh.

“Hehehe how can you get rid of it young man, I heard that you can channel your energy to other beings, even you can give some of it to Prince ChenMing, you can try to do it again one time, with practice you can channel your energy in a balanced way to the nature around you, but...”

LuoXiang frowned at the old man’s but.

“But what, Elder Yi?”

Elder Yi looked at BaiYing from head to toe, that tall, skinny youth, had a lot of energy in his small body.

“Hemh, the earth element is very strong, it can control earth and stone, even metal, the most important thing you have to do is of course practice regularly, and, the earth element is not a balancing energy, if you only have the air element, it will be better because you can carry air with you wherever you go, but not with earth, every time you walk, the ground around you will shake if you don’t hold it in, that’s why your chest feels heavy because XiaoYing is holding back your earth energy right?”

BaiYing thought, he looked down at his feet, that might be true, subconsciously he was trying to contain his inner strength, it’s not strange that his chest felt so heavy as if something was pressing it.

“Then, what should I do old man? YingYing just needs to practice, right?” asked the Crown Prince.

Elder Yi nodded.

“That’s right, with routine regular practices, you can control your earth’s element energy, the earth element is Yang, XiaoYing should do regular training under the sun by noon, with the time you don’t need to hold back the element to make you comfortable, it will happen subconsciously”

BaiYing pursed his lips, looking at Elder Yi for a moment.

“Em, then, Elder Yi, what about the other two elements? Fire and Water, according to the great master Su, the two elements will appear occasionally and create a huge natural disaster, with Ying’er’s element, can it neutralize them?”

Elder Yi nodded.

“It could be Xiao Ying, but it’s not an easy job, neutralizing their power means that Xiao Ying will absorb their element back. Fire can conquer the ground, but it takes Air to keep burning when that happens Xiao Ying will probably feel much more discomfort, and a big Fire can also absorb the Air. Until it comes, it better that XiaoYing practice to be strong first to be able to deal with it in the future”

BaiYing thought again, he looked at the Crown Prince.

“Em, but, we don’t have much time old man, according to the great master Su, when the slab in the ground due to XinHua rising moves further and further south, that’s when the vermillion bird is about to rise, and its awakening, might lead to disaster, Ying should try to prevent it from happen.”

LuoXiang crossed his arms in front of his chest, deep in thought until his forehead furrowed.

“Old man, where do you think the southern location that might be the vermilion red bird’s lair is located? You must know that right?” he asked.

Elder Yi thought, stroking his chin thoughtfully,

“Em south of XinHua, em, if I’m not mistaken, the hottest place south of XinHua, probably close to the border of Gao, around XiYang city”

BaiYing thought as if he’d heard that name before.

“XiYang City? Like I’ve heard that name before.”

Elder Yi approached WuYi who was sitting blankly in his wheelchair, pulling the blanket over his younger brother’s chest.

“I, probably won’t be able to come with you, after all, who can face that bird, only XiaoYing alone, human strength is nothing compared to him, and with the nature of the firebird being so confident to the point of being arrogant, it’s likely that no one will able to control it other than the King of Realm”
