287 Calm Down
âYoung Master!â the giant men ran back towards the cave entrance, where the ruins were still going on, not yet stopped, it so great caused the ground to shake like an earthquake.
âYingâer!! No!! Yingâer!!â
Lanâer who was on the back of one of the big men screamed hysterically, the cave collapsed to the ground, then what about the boy? BaiYingâs maids also couldnât contain their tears from coming out.
The men of Black Leaf Clan ran in panicked, the ground still hardly shaking and causing the rocks to collapse.
âYoung Master!â
When the big men were busy trying to find their way into the cave, suddenly the sound of horses approaching fast, Crown Prince and the others had already arrived there.
âImpudent! Finish them all!â cried the Crown Prince loudly.
BeiYau and his men exclaimed in unison.
âYess!â
.....
Elder Yi and ChenMing approached the three men who were holding up Lanâer and the maids, while the Crown Prince looked at the cave where stones were still falling.
âYingYing!â he pointed his horseâs head towards the cave and sped down towards the cave.
The men from the Black Leaf Clan that filled their small base area attacked, despite their large bodies but those people were certainly not the opponent of BeiYau and his men.
âFinish all of them! Donât let any of them escape!â cried Beiyau.
âYess!!â cried the formidable warriors who had worn gold armor as the Crown Princeâs troops.
âYingYing!â Although the caveâs sky keeps falling it doesnât stop the Crown Prince from entering the cave, think about YingYing being still inside.
âYingYing!â
There was a white light with the wind swirling very fast in the center of the cave, the white light was BaiYingâs fire, Crown Princeâs eyes were wide open, in the middle of the fireball BaiYing was standing half-naked, with top of his clothes torn showing his bare chest and shoulders, his eyes glowing red.
âNo Ying Ying!â
Ignoring the falling rocks, Crown Prince drew closer, not far from BaiYing a large figure fell motionless, the almost burned body was GuMoâs that lay lifeless with its two eyes wide open.
âYingYing!â
Crown Prince screamed, but no matter how loud he shouted the child wouldnât hear him, he was already possessed by his own inner strength, how could this happen? Repeating the same massive energy release as in the stone cave back then, BaiYing could destroy his own body, Elder Yi had already said that if he forced himself again BaiYing might become paralyzed.
While trying to fight the fierce wind, LuoXiang tried to get closer.
âYingYingâ no matter what, even if he could be eroded by the young manâs white flames, he had to stop it.
âYingYing, stop it, stop itâ with the fire continuously roaring, even from a distance it felt very hot on the skin, the Crown Prince entered BaiYingâs circle of fire, letting his clothes burn, even his body, white flames burned the surface of the clothes to his skin, though Crown Prince had already protected himself with his inner strength, it wasnât enough.
âYingYing, donât, donât do it, calm down, YingYingâ
The wind slowly diminished, the enormous fire shrunk until it left only the wind, BaiYing turned to the Crown Prince, the color of his eyes slowly back to normal, he smiled at the Crown Prince whoâs already there.
âYour Majesty, you, comeâ he still raised his hand to caress the Crown Princeâs cheek until finally his hand went limp and his body fell into the manâs arms.
âYingYing, sorry for being so late, heh, Iâm sorryâ
Crown Prince hugged the young manâs limp body very tightly.
âHey Ying Yingâ
His eye closes tightly as his face red from the energy that pushed too hard for the young man, Crown Prince caress the young manâs cheek which still burns so hot.
.....
The birds just fly fast from the branch of the tall trees around the valley.
âFire!â the sound of screaming, people running in panic seeing their houses and buildings burnt by fire, the entire perimeter of the Black Leaf clan headquarters was surrounded by soldiers from the Imperial palace who came after receiving a letter from the Crown Prince.
In an instant, the troops led by LinMo were had cornered the people of the Black Leaf Clan including its leader GuAn in the middle of the field.
YueYang Palaceâs formidable troops looked ferocious with large swords and machetes in their hands ready to execute the Clan members who had disturbed the public, orders from the Emperor and the Crown Prince, all Clan members must be severely punished for their actions, and this time, the Crown Princeâs decree is very clear, condemns all of them to death.
General LinMo raised his hand high, his eyes sharp full of burning embers, he waved his hand downwards, and in an instant, the palace elite soldiers slashed at their cornered enemy mercilessly.
âAkh!â
The sound of screaming, accompanied by red blood flowing like a river made the front yard of the Black Leaf Clanâs headquarters completely red, approximately five hundred members were captured and executed mercilessly, even LinMo didnât blink when he saw those ugly-faced enemies dying in the front of him, he clenched his fists tightly, no matter what they did to XiaoYing he would never forgive them.
.......
The night bird sounds.
Cuckoo Cuckoo,
Klek.
The bedroom door on the second floor of the bungalow was opened from the outside, slowly light footsteps on the wooden floor approached, and stopped not far behind the Crown Prince who was sitting on the edge of the bed where BaiYing was still lying unconscious.
Elder Yi paused, waited for a moment but the Crown Prince who was sitting holding BaiYingâs weak hand did not turn his head either.
There was the sound of heavy breathing from Elder Yi.
âHeh, Your Majesty, you know that if Yingâer knows about this, he will be very disappointed with what you have done all this time,â said Elder Yi.
There was no answer from the Crown Prince until he tucked BaiYingâs hand under the blanket, and slowly stood up, walked a few steps, and sat in front of the round table not far from the bed.
âThis is my business Elder Yi, and you are no longer needed, after all, YingYing has lost his inner strength, he canât even walk anymore, so, I donât expect people who didnât do anything for him to have the right to have words,â said the Crown Prince coldly.
Elder Yi approached, saw the Crown Princeâs very serious face, his cold face, unlike the Crown Prince he had known all along.
Ever since he brought BaiYing home from the Black Leaf Clan headquarters in an unconscious state, and learning from the Ou healer that all the veins BaiYingâs vitals were already destroyed, BaiYingâs chances of being able to move freely or even live were so small. So angry, Crown Prince punished everyone from the Black Leaf Clan, as well as those who were indirectly involved, such as Governor Xuâs family, without blinking giving them the death penalty.
The Crown Prince he knew wasnât the Crown Prince he knew anymore, BaiYingâs condition was getting worse and he lost his mind, let alone thinking clearly, what was in front of his eyes was how to repay all those who had hurt YingYing.
Crown Prince turned his head towards the bed before BaiYing even open his eyes he had heard him and approached quickly.
âYingYing, youâre awake.â
The Crown Prince rushed over to help BaiYing who stretched out his hand, he tried to get up.
âYour Majestyâ
âDonât move much, you need a lot of rest, hey, what do you want to eat? Do you want abalone porridge? Em or jerky?â
BaiYing who was struggling to get up and sat down smiling, the face of the Crown Prince in front of him, it hurt so much to see that sad face, it felt like he wanted to cry, but, the young man tried to show his cheerful face as usual.
âHehe servant is not hungry, Your Majesty, have you eaten yet?â
Crown Prince held the youthâs hand, slowly lifting his body to sit behind the young man supporting his limp body.
âHehe, Brother has eaten, um, earlier, ate a little, I donât have an appetite to eat without accompanying by my YingYing, um, BeiYau has prepared a large and comfortable carriage for us to return to the palace after you get better tomorrow morning, we will start our journey back, hey, Mother, must have missed YingYing a lotâ
BaiYing smiled.
âYeah, I really miss her too, so does grandma, Grandpa Po, hehe, will, Sis Fanâer, she will feel lost when Ying leaves her?â
The Crown Prince restrained himself, he held his breath because the tears were already pressing at the corners of his eyes, he never cried but at that time his heart ached so much.
âWhat is YingYing talking about? How can she miss you when weâre going home soon, we, will stay in the palace until weâre bored, YingYing will take your boring classes, as usual, Queen Mother will definitely give you more work to do, heh, YingYing will be so busy later.â
BaiYing raised his weak hand, caressed Crown Princeâs cheek.
âYour Majesty, please forgive Yingâer, Ying, may have to go first, Your Majesty, donât be too sad for me, heh, after all, in my short and useless life, there is a Crown Prince who is so handsome, so great, beyond the universe, heh, the one, who loves me so much, I am so grateful for that, how can I asked for more than that?â
Crown Prince finally sobbed, he held BaiYingâs hand as it fell from his cheek.
âEms YingYingâ
