409 It Is?
Not long after, in the living room of the bungalow at the Li familyâs house complex.
Li Mo stroked his short beard, thinking hard until his brow furrowed.
âHemmh, so a Er isnât a real mystical Vermilion bird?â
Crown Prince placed his teacup on the saucer.
The night was getting late, but all could not end the day before all the puzzles were solved.
Luo Xiang looked at the second floor where their room was. He saw how Bai Yingâs fire circle during his mind connected with A Er, had burned his clothes, due to the sheer pressure of the force, for a moment, the young man felt a jolt in the memory shown by a Er and lost control, and now, that young man was soaking himself in a cold bath and wanted to be alone for a while. Luo Xiang was worried about him, but, he has to face it on his own now.
Chen Ming joined in on the conversation.
âAccording to Xiao Yingâs story, San Hong Jie felt very envious of Xiao Hong because he was the one who received the divine message and was awarded the bloodstone to become the protector of the Red Bird Mountain. In fact, San Hong Jie and others who had cultivated for quite a long time, much longer than Xiao Hong, the young bird who just came to his senses, and instantly became the Vermilion mystical bird, of course, who wouldnât envy him.â
Li Mo nodded.
.....
âHem, divine messages and bloodstones must be obtained by himself, through his own efforts, Xiao Hong is not offered bloodstones directly, who will offer them? Gods will not interfere in such matters, many processes are required for mystical beings to be able to obtain divine grace, so, it is all because of Xiao Hongâs own efforts that he was able to get that opportunityâ
Luo Xiang nodded.
âThatâs true, but, all living beings must have envy and jealousy in their hearts, uncle, because the red birds are mystical creatures that have gained consciousness, all of them really want the stoneâ
Chen Ming pursed his lips,
âHmm, but take advantage of kindness Xiao Hong, that was a very disgraceful act, San Hong Jie might have taken what didnât belong to her, so the body she made from the bloodstone that wasnât herâs was imperfect, she could lose the bloodstone from time to time, just like what happened then,â continued Chen Ming.
âThatâs true, but, didnât a Er say who took the bloodstone from her? How could she lose the stone from his body so easily,â asked Li Mo.
The Crown Prince raised his tea again, blew out the hot smoke from its surface and took a slow sip.
âYing Ying said, a Er admitted that she had been raped by someone that she didnât know, when her body felt all the urges of lust, the bloodstone came out of her body without uncontrollably.â
Chen Ming turned his head.
âBut, itâs really weird, isnât it? How could she not know who rape her, and, A Er has a very strong internal power, there is no way anyone can rape her and moreover make her helpless to take the most important thing inside her bodyâ
Li Mo nodded. Chen Mingâs words really make sense, it also made the Crown Prince who had actually thought about it agree with him.
âHemh, that girl, may have been hiding something very important from us, but why did she do it?â
.......
Klekk.
The door was opened from the outside.
Two maids, who had just finished helping Bai Ying with his clothes lowered their bodies and excused themselves when they saw the Crown Prince enter through the door. The young man slowly approached and sat beside Bai Ying who had just finished and sat on the edge of his bed.
âWhat about your hands?â
Luo Xiang grabbed Bai Yingâs hand which was slightly reddened by the fire from A Er, as the two had connected. Gently, he spread the cold oil he had brought from outside onto the young manâs palm.
It felt quite comfortable, instantly the coldness made Bai Yingâs palms, which still felt so hot, even though he had been soaked in the bath for a long time, now, became cool and comfortable.
Luo Xiang smiled, he gently massaged Bai Yingâs palms, although his hands were quite big and muscular he was very careful to hold his little concubineâs soft hands.
âYouâve worked hard enough Ying, brother Xiang Xiang is proud of youâ
Bai Ying smiled, His Majestyâs words just now is everything he want to hear, he was no longer the weak and useless Bai Ying he used to be, it felt very strange, in an instant, heâs like being two very different people.
âDoes it feel good?â Luo Xiang asked, while gently massaging the young manâs hand.
Bai Ying nodded.
âYes, Your Majesty, it feels very good, before it was very hot and throbbing, but now it is much better, thank you, Your Majesty.â The young man lowered his head to Luo Xiangâs shoulder.
The young man smiled, caressed Bai Yingâs forehead and kissed him gently.
âChupâ
âYouâre welcome, my Ying Yingâ
Bai Ying held the Crown Princeâs hand that holds his hand, for a moment looked at those big and sturdy palms, the palms that had always protected him, sheltering him whenever he was always in trouble. Until, his tears fell.
Luo Xiang frowned seeing the tears on the young manâs soft cheeks, he must be too emotional because seeing the memories of A Erâs past event made his heartache.
âHeh, this kidâ Luo Xiang held Bai Yingâs cheek lifting the childâs head to look at him.
âWhy are you crying?â
Bai Yingâs sobbing, he wiped his tears that couldnât stop flowing.
âEms, Your Highness, San Hong Jie and Xiao Hong, I am deeply moved to feel their deep love. Ying could feel how aching A Erâs heart was and how sheâs deep regretted the events of those twenty years, and the fact that she missed Xiao Hong so much and didnât know where he was, made her chest ache so much for these twenty years, that longing. , it really hurts.â
Luo Xiang smiled. He pulled the boyâs head in his arms.
âThatâs why Ying Ying feels so sad? Did you think what if that happened to us?â
Bai Ying tried to stop his tears, although it was very difficult.
âEms, yeah, itâs already so sad to think about what a Er is feeling, then, can Ying endure the pain like her? Longing for twenty years, canât see each other at all. Ever since the bloodstone disappeared from her, a Er who got her strength by borrowing the bloodstone couldnât communicate with Xiao Hong, she doesnât even know if heâs still alive or not.â
Luo Xiang stroked Bai Yingâs back gently. No matter how strong the King of Nature is now in his arms, he is still a young child who has just grown up with many difficulties that he kept facing, he is a strong and great kid, but, he must admit, he is still a child.
âWhy are you bothered to think about something that wonât happen, weâve gone through a lot to get here, isnât that enough? Xiao Hong and San Hong Jie just had bad luck, at the most inopportune times. But the two will be able to meet soon, Bei Yau and Su Lang are picking up the bird at Old Man Loâs house.â
Bai Ying pursed his lips, he clenched his small fists in front of the Crown Princeâs chest.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhy is Ying so stupid and not realizing that Xiao Hong is the real Vermilion bird that weâre looking for, Ying did feel a tremendous energy pressure but thought it was because Xiao Hong said that heâs cultivated for ten years before he was injured.â
Luo Xiang let go of his embrace and saw Bai Yingâs face from a very close distance, and hugged the young man tightly.
âUm, my Ying Ying, at least we can find out who the vermilion bird really is, I hope that he as the owner of the bloodstone can actually feel where the stone is, and take back what heâsâ
Bai Ying let go of his embrace, wiping his tears seeing The Crown Prince with a pair of big and teary eyes.
âEms Your Highness, then, can Xiao Hong return to being a mystical Vermilion bird? After what happened to him all this time, and after the stone had disappeared from him?â the young man thought very hard, frowning deeply.
âDonât know that, but uncle Li said, everything is possible for that bird since heâs the rightful owner of the bloodstoneâ
âBut Servant is very curious, how can Xiao Hong take out his bloodstone so easily? Whereas old man Er Wang must desperately take it from Ying erâ
The Crown Prince thought that too, it was very unlikely that it could happen if the bloodstone that had been deposited in the ownerâs body could be taken out just like that, then, what exactly happened?
âHem yeah, could it be that San Hong Jie was lying? If she doesnât get the stone properly, she, might force Xiao Hong to give it to her even if it cost him his life to get it out.â
Bai Yingâs eyes widened at the Crown Princeâs words, he held the manâs hand.
âYour Majesty, is that even possible? B-but, the feelings that Ying feels in San Hong Jieâs heart, itâs very real.â
