CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

726 Meet again

His white clothes seemed to glow under the moonlight and waved by the wind that blew around the two of them, who else if not the Crown Prince? Yang still held onto Bai Ying’s body tightly, cradling him in both hands.

Bai Ying swallowed whole, that face, the face he had missed so much all this time, was this, just a dream? While he was still stunned, unable to hold back his hand, finally the plum that he had worked so hard to pick fell from his hand, but luckily, Luo Xiang held it with his other hand so that the beautiful fruit would not be crushed when it hit the ground.

Bai Ying looked at the old Crown Prince’s face, his eyes filled with tears seeing that he was already there, this, wasn’t a dream right? He stretched out his two hands to hold the Crown Prince’s two wide cheeks. Holding back the tears that were already at the corners of her eyes from falling, even though it didn’t work, she cried.

“Y-Your Highness”

The two of them stood near the tree and let the strong wind blow their bodies until their hair and clothes flew with the wind, not to mention the dry leaves around them that also swirled around the two of them who were still glued to their places.

Luo Xiang smiled. Finally, he could smile now. Seeing the face that he missed so much that his chest hurt all this time, finally, he could see and touch her again.

Luo Xiang hugged Bai Ying even tighter, and Bai Ying finally couldn’t hold back his tears.

“Huks, Your Highness, you came too, finally you came too”

Luo Xiang nodded.

.....

“Yeah, Ying Ying, finally, big brother found you, big brother missed you so much all this time, my Ying Ying”

Bai Ying’s crybaby’s cry sounded all the way to the White Fox’s pretty hut.

“Heh, those two human children, it’s too much, it’s only been a few days like hundreds of years, what about me? Heh, I envy them” the man closed his eyes again. Sitting relaxed in a sloping chair while enjoying the music of the lute and zither playing alone, without anyone else playing them.

That night, finally Bai Ying was able to have a peaceful rest after being exhausted from crying. He’swas lying beside Luo Xiang resting his head on his chest not letting go of the young man’s hug even once. Realizing something, Bai Ying straightened up and sat looking at the Crown Prince with his big round eyes

“Your Highness, how could Your Highness find this place so easily? Then, um, what, does this mean that ugly White fox’s test is over, huh? Why is it so easy huh? Did, Your Highness is injured or poisoned? Or, um, this must be a dream, right? Do you really my brother Xiang Xiang? Em, what is my favorite food?” he asked.

Luo Xiang didn’t expect the kid who had calmed down suddenly got up and asked all these questions at once. The boy even saw him in doubt as if he does not believe him.

“This kid, it’s not that easy, don’t you know that your brother has to face many obstacles before finding the way to this valley? Look at this, I got scratched by a big blue cat that guards in front of the entrance. And this, look at this brother’s leg, was entangled by living roots and almost pulled me into living mud.”

A few days before.

After dozens of days, Luo Xiang finally managed to return to the White Fox forest and look for the entrance to the White Fox valley that finally appeared. But the entrance to the valley wasn’t as easy as just bringing Xiao Bai’s horse into it. After just a couple of steps, suddenly a bunch of bee-like insects the size of ten times the original size attacked him.

“Ah!”

The sound of a swarm of bees deafened his ears, swirling around his body before deciding to suddenly attack him simultaneously.

“Ah, what is this?”

Xiao Bai neighed loudly. Luo Xiang had no choice but to let the hot energy from his golden fire burn the bees all at once, although some still managed to sting his hand. But when the golden flames appeared and swept away the bees, they have suddenly gone with the wind. Very strange, this couldn’t be a dream because his hand hurt quite a bit after being stung.

“Shit, where did they come from.”

And not even a single step forward, suddenly the ground beneath him vibrated violently as if it split. Out of the ground came old brown roots that continued to come out and wrapped around his legs and pulled him to the ground. Dragged him.

“God damn it!” Luo Xiang waved his sword cutting through the living roots. But it’s too tough for him to cut them.

Luo Xiang tried to hold on to the tree trunk as the roots pulled him towards the trees. His eyes widened as he realized where the roots were pulling him.

“Damn, why are you guys attacking all at once! God damn it!” Luo Xiang threw out his sword with all his might trying to cut off the living roots that kept pulling him. Until his palm released a golden energy that knocked the root away from him, but Luo Xiang was pulled into the deep living mire in an instant trying to swallow him. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by Novᴇ(l)Fɪre.net - novelenglish.net . bin

Luo Xiang clung to the branches and roots around him, until his body emitted a golden light that made the mud stop swallowing him.

“Ouch, my clothes” while grumbling because some of his clothes were dirty, Luo Xiang managed to pull his body out from the mud. The first thing he thought of was his clothes, if he met Bai Ying in this state, that boy would definitely make fun of him.

Luo Xiang’s story made Bai Ying unable to stop his laughter. The young man laughed loudly as he imagined the esteemed Crown Prince’s face playing in the extremely dirty mud.

“Hahaha, Your Highness must be very funny, is it? Then why do you look so clean now? Did you have time to change? When is it?” Bai Ying asked. Frowning at the clean beautiful clothes the Crown Prince was wearing at that time.

Luo Xiang pulled his lips.

“Of course. Em, I just changed a while ago”

Bai Ying frowned.

“Oh really? Just now?” he asked.

Luo Xiang nodded. He pointed towards the road where he entered the valley earlier.

“Yes, earlier, when I get in here”

Luo Xiang finally managed to enter the White Fox valley, well, maybe that’s the place because suddenly all the air and atmosphere here changed drastically compared to outside.

Luo Xiang took off his cold coat and looked around. He tucked the coat over Xiao Bai’s back while looking around. It was a very beautiful night in the valley, he didn’t see any other beasts around him. Whether it was a giant bee, living roots, or even a cute blue cat that suddenly attacked him from behind the trees. The pretty creature the size of an ordinary cat attacked him without warning and clawed at his leg. But he couldn’t bear to hurt it, he was just too cute. If he didn’t think that Bai Ying would scold him if he found out he injured a cute animal, He would definitely attack it mercilessly. But no, he just stood there and took a deep breath.

“Fine then, attack me as much as you want, I can’t possibly hurt you, it’s better to be scratched by you than listen to my Ying Ying sulking,” said Luo Xiang who finally just stood still in his place, resigned to what was about to happen.

It was then, all those creatures suddenly disappeared from him, when Luo Xiang closed his eyes and opened them again when nothing is happens. He not seeing the blue cat just now, or even the living roots and bees, all of them, suddenly disappeared.

Luo Xiang stopped his gaze, as he looked up at the huge moon hanging above the sky and found someone he had missed sitting atop a tree trunk.

“Ying Ying” he almost screamed, but stopped himself when he felt his clothes were heavy with mud, it would not be a pleasant meeting with his Ying Ying after several months of not seeing each other.

Bai Ying looked at Luo Xiang for a long time. Pursing his mouth and rolling his eyes upwards.

“Your Highness is exaggerating, we’ve only been apart for twenty days, is Your Highness really unable to let me walk a bit longer alone, does Your Highness really distrust me huh? Really?” Bai Ying said.

The Crown Prince widened his eyes, looking at Bai Ying who looked mad.

“What twenty days? What does Ying Ying mean?” he asked.

His question made Bai Ying look at him in confusion.

“Eh, isn’t that right, Your Highness, Ying er has only been traveling for twenty days or so, it hasn’t even been a full moon yet. Heh, how is this not too easy?”
