191 Donât let my Hands go
âArrgghhh!!â The dragonâs roar made allâs ears ache, very loud screams.
The huge heavy energy made all the soldiers have to stop their battle.
The ground is shaking, as the loud voice split the ground and makes a crack sound surrounding the battlefield.
Everyone standing by, with eyes wide open to see what happens around them, but it cant be avoided.
The blast of energy from the cliff had a very wide range down to the bottom of the cliff, in an instant sent bodies flying off the ground.
âAkkh!â
Everyone fell down so hard. Except for Bei Yau and Chen Ming who were exerting their inner strength and lower their bodies get on the ground. Bei Yauâs protected Chen Mingâs head from falling rocks from the top of the cliff. The young man looked at BeiYau, who occasionally let his body hit by hard rocks in order to protect him.
âGuard Beiâ
Bei Yau smiled at Chen Ming who looked at him worriedly.
.....
âHehe, my Prince, are you all right?â
The sound of the roar and the rumbling of the cliffs as the rocks kept falling hard. Made many of the Wah Ye and Yue Yang warriors scatter to protect themselves.
From the forest, another group appeared and stopped not far from the field. Some people at the very front stood to see what was happening.
âWhat happened?â Princess Wu Lan and Elder Pai. As well as many Lo Hua villagers who were escorted there by soldiers from Wah Ye.
âYingâ er!â Wu Lanâs eyes widened at what was happening in the distance. Her old eyes can still clearly see what happens on the cliffs. She could guess who was on top of the cliff with the energy surrounding him.
Wu Lan rushed over, and Elder Pai and MeMa tried to hold her.
âYour Majesty, no!â
âYingâ er!â
On top of the cliff. Luo Xiang hugged Bai Ying, who slowly gradually reduced his energy until the heat around him subsided. The wide, white flames ball slowly diminished.
Luo Xiang smiled, seeing at Bai Yingâs delicate beautiful face, and touched his cheek with his two wide palms covering it.
âHey sweet boy, letâs go home, letâs back to our home, everything would be okayâ
Bai Ying nodded, he wiped his tears and smiled broadly at the young man in front of him. He just felt his heart so ache a while ago, and canât hold his tears from falling as if he was just broken-hearted so bad a very bad feeling.
The young man turned his head to Luo Xiangâs body. His chest and whole body were full of wounds from the blow, because of his white flames. Bai Ying touched it carefully.
âYour Highness, does it hurts? Iâm sorry to hurt Your Majesty.â
Luo Xiang smiled, he grabbed Bai Yingâs hand which touched his wound, but, yet to touch it, Bai Yingâs small palms gave off a warm green light.
âThis...â
Bai Ying smiled, he could feel the warm energy emanating from his palms, the healing energy. The green colour aura was the aura of body resistance. In an instant, it could remove the bruises and burns on the Crown Princeâs body to no trace.
âHey, itâs really comfortable, my Ying Ying is really awesomeâ Luo Xiang whispered touching BaiYingâs chin gently.
Bai Ying smiled, he puffed his mouth canât hide his smiles at the Crown Princeâs praise which made his cheeks blush.
âHehe, this is nothing, Yingâer know from Master Shin Ya that I can expend any energy because my aura is Orange, thatâs what he thinks, and this, itâs quite usefulâ
Luo Xiang hugged BaiYing. Very gently touched his neck and tilted his head impatiently wanting to kiss him so badly, Bai Yingâs sweet lips that he had missed so much.
âThis kidâ
But Bai Yingâs eyes widened, as someone appeared behind Luo Xiang rushing towards him as fast as lightning. Without thinking twice Bai Ying pulled LuoXiangâs body towards him and spun around to block the punch of the person who was none other than Yue Wang.
âPhakk!!â
A very hard blow on Bai Yingâs back with his wide palm. In slow motion, Luo Xiang was shocked to see such a fast happening before his eyes, he didnât realize it until Bai Yingâs body was pushed towards him, so hard.
âYing Ying!â
The blow was so hard that it seemed to shatter all of Bai Yingâs spine and even hit his heart.
âAh!â
Bai Yingâs eyes were wide open, and a glimpse of all his childhood memories flashed through his head. Slides the fast pace memories which keep getting clear by the time, and spinning with new fresh memory like it was his memory yesterday. On a very bright day, with a gentle breeze blowing in the valley behind the Hua family home.
âHahahaha brother Xiang-Xiang, come and chase Yingâer!â little Yingâer nimbly pulled the string of a kite that had flown high above the blue sky. As far as the eye could see stretching without limits, Luo Xiang was a tall and stocky child, big enough for a child of his age. A very bright twelve years old young man. Little Luo Xiang didnât have many friends because of his condition. Being a prince of a concubine who was the Emperorâs favourite made all the other concubines seem to be avoiding him too.
âLittle brother Ying Ying! Wait for me!â Loudly exclaimed Luo Xiang who was having a hard time catching up with BaiYingâs agile little steps. The boy with a sweet face like a girl laughed very loudly, his pure white face shone under the clear sky, and his front teeth were missing one, but it didnât detract from his very adorable cuteness. Luo Xiang finally managed to catch up with Bai Ying and grabbed his little hand.
âYingYing, donât run too fast, how if big brother wonât be able to catch up with you?â
Bai Ying turned his head until his eyes disappeared into a wide smile.
âOf course, you can, brother XiangXiang is so great, you can always catch Yingâer, letâs go over there.â
The wind blows harder as the summer is coming right in front of their eyes. The two of them ran back among the green grass, some of which were even taller than BaiYingâs head. The air was getting warmer, that day everything looked so beautiful. Even beautiful butterflies flew around Bai Ying and Luo Xiang and seemed to be playing along with them.
Before long, the two were sitting on a large rock where they spent most of their time there. Luo Xiang and Bai Yingâs first meeting was at the Hua family house. Where Luo Xiangâs mother was a family friend, who got to know San Niang before she got married and was none other than the person who helped the girl live and settle in San Po. Also, the one who entrusted San Niang to Hua Lie knew that Hua Lie has a very kind and sincere heart so that it would not make San Niangâs life suffer. Indeed fate has long arranged everything in such a way for Luo Xiang and Bai Ying to be able to meet, and, that first meeting will never be forgotten by Luo Xiang forever. When he was very sad because he had just been the object of humiliation by his half-brother in the palace, who else but Luo Yan who was born handsome since a kid? When he was so depressed, a wide and sweet smile of a child standing next to a beautiful woman who was talking with his mother made his eyes widen. Subconsciously smiled at him, really a smile and a very beautiful face that instantly shook his heart, even when he didnât know what love meant before.
âBrother, brotherâs hair smells so good, big brother really loves to touch it,â said Luo Xiang who was braiding Bai Yingâs long hair sitting in front of him. Well, at least thatâs what he did even though there was no result, instead of making Bai Yingâs shiny hair messy.
âThis is because mother combs it every day, do Brother want your hair to look good too? Yingâ er will ask Mother laterâ
Luo Xiang chuckled his big round cheeks like dumplings with long little eyes that disappeared with it.
âEmm, little brother, donât need to, my hair is fine like this, um, so, little brother wants me to comb your hair too?â
Little Bai Ying nodded quickly.
âYes brother, I want it, big brother must brush it every day, Yingâ er really likes big brotherâs big hands.â
Luo Xiang couldnât stop smiling, Bai Yingâs sweet words made him smile.
âHey really? Arenât you ashamed to be friends with brother?â
Bai Ying turned his head, and his pair of big round eyes with large light brown eyes looked at Luo Xiang, then raised his hand to caress hisâs cheek.
âBrother, is Yingâer not good? Yingâer will behave and try not to be naughty, big brother will comb Yingâerâs hair every day right?â
Luo Xiang nodded quickly.
âSure, big brother would like it, so Yingâer has to promise me, that no one is allowed to touch brotherâs hair other than big brother.â
Bai Ying nodded, he put his pinky out in front of Luo Xiangâs hand which was already reaching out in front of him, intertwining the two little fingers.
âYes brother, Yingâer promiseâ
Loud sound.
The scorching smack pushed Bai Yingâs limp body into Luo Xiangâs arms. His eyes opened wide to see Bai Yingâs pair of eyes looking at him,
âBrother Xiang Xiangâ
âThen, big brother will you keep your promise? To wonât let go of Yingâerâs hand forever?â Bai Yingâs eyes spoke.
Luo Xiang canât control the tears to com flow out, Bai Yingâs gaze at that moment, scared him for a moment, bad things could be seen in his eyes. Those pretty eyes that saw him with lots of words in them, and the tears that fall as flying in the air.
âYing, big brother will always hold your hand, no matter what happens, big brother wonât let it go, big brother promiseâ
Until Bai Ying fall limply in Luo Xiangâs arms, didnât move.
âYing!â
Luo Xiang recalled what Dragon Er Wang said back then. That, his fate with Ying Ying, might not last forever, but, what does it mean, will he lose him? What, that day will come? now? the nightmare he tries so hard to avoid but has to deal with it no matter how much he tried.
âNo Ying Ying, donât do thisâ
