229 Hand of a Savior

“This is a hand of a savior, not a hand of a killer, YingYing must not think that it is your hand that killed him, no matter what, you should also think about saving the people around you, that’s why you need to do whatever you can, the current situation, where YingYing must be so strong to protect others”

BaiYing looked at his palm, he knew it, but, maybe for a while he wouldn’t be able to let out the fire, at least until he was sure he could control it, his strength was far from what he imagined, and, despite having a weak body and can’t do any martial arts, he has that fire to protect those around him, he shouldn’t think this is something he should avoid.

“Your Majesty, I am not yet worthy of all this power, how about next time I injure an innocent person?”

“Em, how could you do that, your instincts are too soft to attack if you don’t have to, erm, how about later when I’m free, we practice on how to control your flames, does YingYing want that?”

BaiYing saw LuoXiang’s smiling face at him, he nodded.

“Of course Your Majesty, it would be so nice if I could control it.”

LuoXiang stroked BaiYing’s hair, lowering his head again to kiss the crown.

“Then don’t think too much about it, um, does YingYing want to sleep here?”

Bai Ying nodded. LuoXiang shifted his seat and moved to the side of BaiYing, lifting his two legs onto the bed.

.....

“Then let’s go back to sleep.”

He lay beside BaiYing pulling the young man into his arms, supporting his head with his arms, and hugging him tightly, making his body disappear into his big body.

“Emh, my sweet YingYing, such a gentle and kind kid”

“Hehe Your Majesty, stop praising me”

“Hehehe that’s the truth, did I say the wrong thing?”

BaiYing tightened his embrace, he smiled and felt he felt much better because of the Crown Prince’s words and hugs.

“Um, Your Majesty”

........

The morning.

“His Highness the Crown Prince arrived!” cried the guard, the Crown Prince entered the great hall of the Eagle Pavilion where he worked, where several officers related to the attacks had gathered in the center of the room.

All lowered their bodies as the Crown Prince sat on his big chair.

“Greetings Your Highness the Crown Prince, long live! Long live!” everyone shouted in unison, BeiYau and ShinYa were already standing behind LuoXiang, the Crown Prince waved his hand for all the officers to stand up.

“Stand up”

“Thank you, Your Majesty”

The palace investigator and member of the forensic team, BaoYe, with the lead Officer GuYe stood up and moved to the side.

“Officer Gu have you managed to find out the identity of the attacker is?”

The middle-aged man with a friendly and polite face stepped forward, clenched his fists in front of his face respectfully before replying, the palace investigators specialize in dealing with matters that occur within the palace, and they have only been formed by the Emperor since so many unexpected events in the palace, and the current chairman GuYe, who was none other than a former palace advisor, because of his clever brain and calm demeanor, the Emperor made him the first head of BaoYe’s investigative group.

“Report Your Majesty, the condition of the attacker’s body is almost unrecognizable, nearly ninety-five percent of his body has been burned, and, the fire that burns him has not been extinguished before consuming all the surface of the skin down to the bones, this, it is very difficult to recognize who the real attacker is, please forgive us Your Majesty” GuYe reported while lowering her head.

LuoXiang glanced at ShinYa beside him, as if to say why BaiYing’s white flame was so intense, ShinYa could only nod his head, making LuoXiang take a deep breath.

“Heh”

“However, from the body posture and bone structure one can guess that the attacker is a young male in his twenties, height around one hundred and ninety, with large bones, the head shape is quite large compared to the average YueYang citizen, it could be due to genetics, or, it could be the assailant might be a foreigner.”

Hearing GuYe’s continuation, LuoXiang sat up straight.

“What do you mean foreigner?”

“Your Majesty, this is just a rough estimation from servant, because, the contours of the sharp teeth resemble, um, please forgive me, a kind of wild animal such a wolf”

Hearing that, the Crown Prince opened his eyes wide, several officers from other groups who were inside also surprised by GuYe’s explanation.

“Officer Gu, you can’t just decide, obviously he’s a human, how come there are teeth like wolves? Could it be just dentures?” BeiYau asked.

GuYe lowered his head back.

“I don’t dare Officer Bei, the attacker’s figure is indeed human, teeth and bones can be changed with the effect of cultivating from the martial arts, the attacker’s arm and leg bones are as hard as steel, I estimate the attacker might practicing the martial arts that, which almost extinct, its called as The Shifting, servant, have seen the effects of this martial arts before, and it is different for everyone, however, mostly the mutation around the teeth and bones”

GuYe’s further explanation made everyone whisper, even LuoXiang couldn’t say anything, BeiYau Seeing the Crown Prince then looking at him, BeiYau gulped.

“Bei, you sent your guards to check for people with similar traits in the palace and its surroundings, looks like the dark group from Demon Valley has reappeared”

“Yes Your Majesty”

ShinYa frowned, he seemed to have heard the name of that group before.

“Your Majesty, that group has not been heard of for a long time, they should have been extinct long ago” he whispered.

BeiYau looked at the Crown Prince.

“Your Majesty, this, may have something to do with the attack on MaYang, I was wondering which black group could do all this, and, I didn’t think about it since this group hasn’t appeared for a long time”

LuoXiang looked back at GuYe.

“Officer Gu, don’t let this matter leak out just yet, I don’t want this matter to make everyone panic, this, maybe just a coincidence”

GuYe nodded his head.

“Yes Your Majesty”

The Crown Prince then looked at the other officers, the Crown Prince’s chief palace guard, Officer Liu, the young man he had trusted to be the head of the guard since the former chief retired.

The young man lowered his head in front of the Crown Prince.

“Report Your Majesty, I have investigated all the guards on duty, all are on alert, no entrance has been breached by the attacker, it is very unlikely that the attacker could enter unnoticed, unless...”

“Except for what? Officer Liu” asked BeiYau.

“Report, Guard Bei, except for the entrance from the Imperial palace, since that section the guards often change duties and leave their posts because no intruders should enter through the Imperial palace into the Crown Prince’s palace”

LuoXiang’s eyes opened wide hearing that fact, he hit the table loudly and stood up.

“Insolent!”

Officer Liu and his guards immediately lowered their bodies as they saw the Crown Prince’s piercing gaze with anger clearly glaring at them.

“Forgive us, Your Majesty!”

“Who decides that? Officer Liu didn’t I say all entrances must be strictly guarded, without exception! How can you guys untighten the guard at the entrance of the Imperial Palace? Since when did this happen?”

The Crown Prince’s loud voice made everyone present in the room lower their bodies to their knees.

“Forgive us, Your Majesty!”

LuoXiang’s eyes were huge as if he could swallow everyone who was now kneeling in front of him, this kind of security matter was so important, how could he miss it.

BeiYau lowered his head in front of the Crown Prince and whispered.

“Pardon this servant, Your Majesty, but Your Majesty once said that the entrance to the Imperial palace may be an exception for layered guarding so that officer Liu only placed two guards there, and, this, is also one of His Majesty’s and Her Majesty the Queen request, since she always pas the entrance and think it’s safe.”

LuoXiang clenched his fists, threw up his sleeves, and put one hand behind his waist, his eyes flashed, actually, the entrance should be quite safe, since the security of the two palaces and its surroundings became one, he slowly sat back in his chair, waving his hand to invite everyone to stand.

“Officer Gu, I give you an order, investigate all guests who come from outside, anyone, without exception”

GuYe opened his eyes wide, glanced at everyone including BeiYau saying whether he heard the Crown Prince’s order correctly.

“Your Majesty, everyone?”

Luo Xiang nodded.

“Yes, everyone, even guests from NuMen country, everyone should be investigated, this assault matter happened when the palace gates were opened for guests, more or less they might have something to do with it”

BeiYau lowered his head in front of the Crown Prince.

“Your Majesty, I have sent a task force to look for data on incoming guests, including guards, maids, to the entertainment department, they will report the results soon, if in the group there is a decrease without reporting, the possibility of the attacker may be in the amongs them”

LuoXiang thought, deep until his brow furrowed.

“You think they won’t prepare it Bei? Whoever it was, they had already dared to do it in front of our eyes, this, might not be as easy as we thought, the attacker might take the opportunity when all the guests entered the palace, but, why attack YingYing in broad daylight? Why be so desperate to do it when everyone is so alert, though, if it weren’t for YingYing’s abilities they might have been injured already.”
