CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

BaiYing, his servants, and YoTang are seen sitting enjoying fresh fruit, tired after playing and running around earlier, sweat still dripping down their foreheads and faces.

BaiYing still can’t stop his laugh when he saw YoTang’s completely exhausted after running through the hide-and-seek playground with him, it had been such a long time he’s not having this fun ever since he was forced snuck into the palace as a fake concubine.

“Em, are you going back to the Valley?” Bai Ying asked.

YoTang nodded.

“Yes, I’ll take other disciples to find Master, I don’t know where he is now, but I hope he’s okay.”

BaiYing took a deep breath.

“Heh, all because of Ying’er, grandfather Ou have to get involved in it, heh, so what’s going to happen? Is this stone is really so great that people in power want it so badly, according to the Crown Prince, there is almost no such thing in this era, the last dragon died more than sixty years ago, and even then it can’t be verified, whether it’s true or just a story from the peoples, Dragons are holy creatures, surely they won’t stay on earth to be sacrificed by humans right?”

.....

YoTang nodded his head.

“Um, I do thought so, but Master said there might still be one dragon left on Earth, the story was more less like this, when the snake was seriously injured in a fight and killed other serpents, fights for the only BloodStone remain, grandmaster quickly took the stone and ran as fast as possible, the serpent couldn’t catch up to grandmaster because his body was badly injured, so he could only heal himself in a cave that didn’t know where grandmaster exact position was, because grandmaster didn’t wanted to disturb the serpent so he kept the secret to his grave, it is said that only his younger brother knew, the stone itself was actually just a stone with a fairly large size, but grandmaster who was crazy about medicine kept thinking how the stone could be so precious for the serpent, he broke the stone into pieces and gave it to his four disciples, one of them is my master, Master Ou, until, one day, ten years ago the serpent managed to find grandfather’s hideouts and killed three other disciples on the spot and took the stone, only Master Ou who managed to save himself because that year we happened to be visiting the Hua family house”

BaiYing rounded his mouth, he remembered that Grandpa Ou and his disciple Brother Yo had spent a few months at his house so that he and brother Yo had a fairly close relationship, and that same year, the incident that happened to his biological mother, and also the birth mother of the Crown Prince was killed, and at that time, don’t know what happened because BaiYing was too young to remember, long short story, Grandpa Ou gave him a piece of the pearl due to his severely wounded and managed to save his life.

It’s only a quarter of a stone but the power is so great.

BaiYing touched his chest, is it true that the remarkable thing was settled inside his body all this time? But it didn’t do him much good for him other than keeping him alive, he even nearly died silly from ordinary poison. Is that stone as great as people say?

“Then brother, where is the serpent now?”

YoTang furrowed his brow in thought, he shrugged his shoulders in disbelief.

“It’s not clear, according to Master, after destroying the school, the serpent returned to its cave, and until now it has suffered a long sleep in order to gain power so that it can utilize the three-quarters of the stones that it now has. According to Master, with the remaining BloodStone in your body now, the serpent will quickly transform into a dragon instant, who knows who spreads rumors about killing a serpent that turns into a dragon will become young and immortal, but many people believe it. At first, brother thought this problem was actually not that big, just a small problem of a splinter stone, but, brother’s family, have become victim to it, so, this matter is indeed very important”

BaiYing lowered his head.

“Father, didn’t even tell me anything, if only Ying’er knew, Ying’er willing to take out this stone as soon as possible.”

“You can’t do that, according to Master, you have to wait for the right time, that’s why he can only create Life and Death pills and give it at this time, not since yesterday because it will take time for brother to heal the wound in your heart, if you take it out it then you can lose your life”

BaiYing held back his tears, he tried not to think about it, but every time he thought about the fate of his family, his heart ached so much, how could he be left to live alone while all the family he had known and loved for so long had to suddenly leave him, thinking about that made his chest hurt so bad.

“Ems, all of this happened because of Ying’er”

YoTang glanced at BaiYing, raised his hand to pat the young man’s back.

“It’s not your fault Ying’er, from the beginning those people have been eyeing the stone even though it may not be in your body, Master said, those people will always targeting the stone no matter what, there’s a chance that peoples in black’s were the ones chasing us, is the same group as the attackers back then, ten years ago”

BaiYing straightened up in his seat, opening his eyes wide.

“Really? That, that means, the person who killed Mother, as well as His Highness the Crown Prince’s biological mother, was, the person behind the murder of my family now?”

YoTang nodded.

“It could be so like that, they might be the same person.”

BaiYing bit the edge of his lips, his eyes rolling.

“This means, by finding that person, thus finding the person who killed Mother and His Majesty’s Mother, Your Majesty will surely be surprised to hear that.”

While the two were still busy talking, there was a commotion from the direction of the gate.

“Ah!”

A moaning sound, YoTang, and BaiYing immediately straightened their seats, YoTang quickly grabbed the sword not far beside him.

“Brother, go inside with the others.”

BaiYing stood up, Yan and Bi quickly pulled his hand and rushed into the house.

“B-but Brother.”

Although being inside the pavilion of the Crown Prince’s palace didn’t make them completely safe, that was what the Crown Prince said to keep everyone alert, and sure enough, from the gate appeared several people dressed in black who was approaching with long swords in their hands were the fresh blood still dripping.

“Your Highness!”

Yan and Bi panicked, both of them drag BaiYing’s hand into the house with several other servants.

YoTang was still standing where he was, gulping down his saliva, where were the guards? Where did these people come from?

“Brother Yo!” BaiYing exclaimed before the door was tightly shut from the inside.

BaiYing and his servants hid inside the house, while the sound of swords clashing was clearly heard outside, there seemed to be resistance from the palace guards around the Pavilion as well.

Ting Ting Ting Ting.

BaiYing was squatting by the bed with Yan and Bi, while the other maids, who were some men like Tu, tried to peek outside.

“How did they get in here?” Yan whispered, Bi shook her head, her hands shaking holding BaiYing’s hand which was also sweating cold.

“Owh no what we should do?”
