CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

“Uncle”

Xi Tou looked at Prince Yue Huan and bowed his head in greeting.

“Sincerely Your Highness Prince, how are you doing now?”

Yue Huan tried to raise his face.

“Master Xi, I’m fine, lucky, young master Xi and others came on time, otherwise I might have been in Xue Hua palace by now”

Xi Tou waved his hand at several young male servants standing not far behind him.

“These few servants will take the Prince to the room to clean up and rest, after this try to calm down, this Clan is strong and safe, none of Queen Bo Yan’s subordinates will be able to enter here”

Yue Huan looked at the three male servants who approached him, which helped him slowly rise from his seat, helping his frail body to walk towards the door. For a moment the Prince stopped in front of Xi Hu and Xi Tou, he smiled even though tears were still streaming down his eyes.

.....

Shortly after the prince out from the hall where everyone was gathered. Xi Hu approached his uncle.

“Uncle, what should we do with Prince Yue Huan now? What, is there a chance that Queen Bo Yan will seek him all the way here? The strength of the Queen’s army is quite strong, although it is not impossible to defeat them, those people try so hard that they won’t hesitate to die to serve their Queen, this is what makes them so strong.”

Xi Tou stroked his chin, thinking.

“Hmh, among all Xue Hua’s powers the one we are most afraid of right now is Queen Bo Yan, fortunately, she didn’t participate in the battle, if that happened, it would be very difficult for us to defeat them, her strength is getting more and more formidable.”

Xi Hu nodded.

“That’s true, I don’t know what he did to his men, but some of them are like hard to kill, ordinary soldiers will fall after the first stab, but it takes several hits for them to fall, and, if this is the way it is, we’ll be in very deep troubles, Uncle, fighting General Te Yi’s army alone has exhausted many of our men and General Lin Mo’s troops.”

General Lin Mo who was standing not far beside Xi Hu looked at the two.

“Big lord, I have sent a letter to the capital for help, but the conditions around San Po are also in chaos, it looks like several rows of Xue Hua troops are breaking through the gate, even though they are not Yue Yang’s opponents at this time, but those people are still desperate to attack,” said Lin Mo.

A tall, thin old man who had been standing behind Xi Tou had been stroking his white beard, that man was none other than Mu Yun, the main advisor of the Cold Water Clan. Famous for his supreme wisdom and knowledge as vast as the sky, as one of the retired Xue Hua palace historians decades ago, he was probably the source of all knowledge related to Xue Hua palace and all the legends behind it.

“We’re lucky that Queen Bo Yan hasn’t made a move up until now, however, I’m afraid that she might be planning something much bigger than simply conquering an entire area with the might of Xue Hua’s palace army, all of those attacks might just be a diversion, creating a huge mess. making everyone restless and afraid of her, Queen Bo Yan is clearly aiming for something.”

Lin Mo and Xi Hu looked at Elder Mu with big eyes, Lin Mo swallowed hard, somehow he immediately thought of Bai Ying and the others.

“What do you mean, adviser, what, Queen, knowing that His Majesty the King and the Crown Prince come here, she deliberately drew all attention to her? Just to lure the King here?” Lin Mo asked.

Mu Yun turned to Lin Mo who looked at him for a long time, anxiously waiting for his answer. The old man nodded.

“It is feared that is what happened General Lin, after successfully confining the Black Tortoise somewhere, the Queen might think she can take the King Realm’s energy like she did with the Black Tortoise, the demon is thinking very far, and her goal might be to become a landlord, and defeated the heavens, she has clearly defied Heaven with all of her actions.”

Lin Mo and Xi Hu looked at each other, as did Xi Tou, all gulped, was this a battle that they as mere mortals could face? How much power does the Queen, who has not even shown up yet until now, make everyone tremble and break out in a cold sweat? This is terrible.

....

“Protect His Majesty!” cried Bei Yau.

The group had already arrived at the foot of the White Moss Mountain when suddenly a group of soldiers dominant in black armour attacked them.

The sky was getting dark and the air was getting colder. Soldiers that were about twice the number of the Crown Prince and Bai Ying’s entourage attacked from all directions without hesitation.

“Insolent!! How dare they attack us directly like this!” cried Guard Pang, swinging his machete at the men who charging at him.

The Second Prince got out of his carriage, curious about people who dare to attack them, he just waved his hand knocking down some of the attackers who were running toward him.

“Those losers are nothing but ants.”

He didn’t even move a step from his spot but all of his enemies fell because of his extraordinarily strong spiritual energy, he was clearly growing so far better than before.

Meanwhile, Bai Ying and Xiao Hong sat in the carriage observing the surroundings. they even still enjoy their snack time as if there was nothing happening there, just like watching a show.

“Wow, where do they come from Your Majesty, there are a lot of them,” said Hong amaze by how many soldiers come to rush in just a sec.

“Em, Hong, aren’t you going to help them?” Bai Ying asked.

Xiao Hong looked at Bai Ying and scratched his head.

“Hehe I would, Your Majesty, but, did Your Majesty forget that Servant’s power has gone?” he asked.

Bai Ying widened his eyes as if he had just remembered something.

“O Yeah, um, then, give this a try.”

Bai Ying grabbed Xiao Hong’s hand and channelled the reddish-coloured energy that flowed into the young man’s palm, Xiao Hong widened his eyes, he felt all the warm energy rushing into his veins, very intense and light energy.

“Y-Your Majesty, how did you do that?”

Bai Ying smiled.

“Hehe of course I can, actually I wanted to give it to you since yesterday, but Ying forgot, hehe sorry about that.”

Xiao Hong looked at his palms glowing red, all the energy flowing through his body, it felt great to have his strength back, all the burdens he had in his body disappeared in an instant.

He could release red flames on his palm again now.

“Your Majesty, this is great, Hong has got my energy back.”

The battle with the soldiers who seemed to be a fairly easy opponent but more or less made things difficult for Bei Yau and the others, while the Crown Prince sat quietly on his horse and frequently repulsed the attackers who were advancing towards him, they all are nothing for him.

“Impudence!! Bei don’t waste your time, quickly finish them off!” he exclaimed.

“Yes, Your Majesty!” cried Bei Yau while waving his very sharp sword so that it could cut the iron armour of the Xue Hua-flagged soldiers so easily.

Meanwhile, on Ye Lu’s side, the young man seemed to be having a hard time wielding a sword that he rarely used. Even so, the young man managed to beat some of the attackers who surrounded him.

“Ah!” one of the attackers managed to stab Yue Yang’s soldier and pulled his bloodied spear into the air.

The big man turned towards Ye Lu and flung his spear mercilessly. Ye Lu was almost pushed back against his enemy’s spear attack.

“Damn, he’s so strong” Ye Lu’s thin body was definitely not comparable to a man who was twice his size and height. The man attacked him incessantly.

“You’re all dead! Long live Queen Bo Yan!” shouted the man pushing Ye Lu into a tree. Ye Lu held his body with his hind legs on the tree trunk. he could die silly if the man keeps pushing him like that, he is a very great esteem guard from Cold Water Clan, how can the lowly soldier beat him?

“Ah! What makes them so strong?”

Bai Ying who was sitting in the carriage saw Ye Lu who looked troubled, he immediately waved his hand to throw the giant man away from Ye Lu.

“Whussh!”

Ye Lu widened his eyes, can’t believe what he saw just now how lightly but strong the wind was, in an instant, his enemy was thrown from him and hit a large tree that was quite far from his position. He turned towards the carriage where Bai Ying poked his head, the Young King had just saved him.

“Your Majesty.”
