167 The Rescue
Night came, the third day and the Crown Prince’s entourage had arrived in the Cloud forest, that’s its name because the location of the forest is so high that it seems to be covered by clouds, the forest which is located bordering the cities of PingAn and SuiLian is very wide, it is said that because of its depth the forest is very rarely visited by people who’s afraid would not be able to find a way out after entering it, however, that did not apply to the Crown Prince’s entourage, and moreover, the entourage who had already occupied a hut in the middle of the forest, where several large horses were tied up in front of the house, there was no carriage due to the road. The extreme path made YeMu’s party leave the carriage at the foot of the hill and enter the forest with only horses and walking, the trail of dragging trees was still clearly visible, just before heavy rain hit the very dark forest that night.
Shaaashhhh!!’
The Crown Prince who was already wearing a robe with a head covering to reduce the rainwater, had settled behind the several trees in front of the hut with BeiYau and others, it looked like aYa was also settling on the other side, she and the other guards were about to attack from the other side.
LuoXiang raised his hand to BeiYau nearby, with the darkness of the night, and only an oil lamp could be seen from inside the hut, they had to use their instincts to communicate with each other, LuoXiang thought, this might be a good time to attack after confirming BaiYing was inside.
BeiYau and his top guard charged in through the window, and without giving a second thought attacked the few men in the room.
Brukk!
Crashed the window and doors to enter.
‘ting ting ting ting ting!”
A clash of arms was unavoidable, but inside the house there was no YeMu let alone BaiYing, the Crown Prince who rushed in, opened his eyes wide, and found a black shadow hovering outside the house, mindlessly chasing after it.
.....
“DuGuYe!” he shouted, LuoXiang darted out to chase after the shadow leaping between the trees and lure him away from the house,
“Dammit!”
BeiYau realized it, this was DuGu Ye’s ploy to separate him and the Crown Prince, without second thought BeiYau rushed after him, but just as he was about to run out his feet were suddenly pulled violently back into the house.
Thummpps!!’
LuoXiang darted between the trees and found an open area that was slightly lit up by the moon that night, instantly DuGu Ye attacked him with her long chain, along with the rain that was falling so hard that it hit LuoXiang who wasn’t alert enough to nearly knock him down.
“Shrett!!”
The sound of the shiny black chains of DuGuYe’s weapon hitting the tree trunk with ease, almost knocking over a decades-old tree with a bang, LuoXiang held back several times with his sword and was pushed back, obviously the girl’s martial arts skills were much better than last time they met, but he’s the Crown Prince, who can beat him?
The chains flew right and left, even from directions where LuoXiang didn’t think of it, several times he stomped his feet high and held the chain with his sword until the moment the two great weapons collided with sparks, the Crown Prince’s body very lightly flew up the tree and hurtling towards DuGu Ye, he could almost touch the black-clothed girl had she not quickly pulled the chain and restrained the Crown Prince until he could stomp his feet and back towards the rocks.
The attack paused for a moment, DuGu Ye gasped, she held back the long chain that coiled along with her hand, the remarkable chain which wasn’t really that long but could stretch as long as it could when she wielded it, LuoXiang held his sword in front of him, he hadn’t even expended his inner strength, even though he had to admittedly the girl in front of him was quite consistently attacking him.
The girl smirked. The rain that fell did not reduce the clarity of the girl’s grinning face under the moonlight.
“Heh, Your Highness the Crown Prince, long time no see, you, still very shrewd”
LuoXiang smirked.
“Heh, it’s not even that much, you know what I can do more than this, where’s Ying Ying?”
YeMu laughed,
“Hahahaha YingYing, that kid, so cute, His Highness the Crown Prince does really know the very good stuff, do you know? If your YingYing, is WahYe’s successor? The kingdom, which if it resurrected, would be able to overthrow YueYang overnight, then, how do you feel, when you find out that your loved one, might be your greatest enemy”
LuoXiang waved his sword.
“Don’t say much, tell me where is he? Your ambitions have gone too far, WahYe has been extinct since seventy years ago, even when your father was not yet born. Why bother to take care of a country that has become history and being so busy by doing all these things? You have a bright future DuGu Ye, being a palace concubine is not a bad thing than being a rebel, at least you got respect”
YeMu pursed her lips, she glared at LuoXiang.
“Heh, why do you guys have the same words?”
Luo Xiang smiled.
“He, YingYing is talking like that? What a clever boy”
YeMu restrained herself, the chain moving up with the pressure of her inner strength.
“Your Highness the Honorable Crown Prince, you only look at the kid with lust, not love, I can’t believe someone like you who doesn’t know how to respect and treat others properly knows what love means, when it happens, like other people, you might prefer yourself instead of dying silly for love”
The Crown Prince restrained himself, were it not for YeMu knowing where BaiYing was he wouldn’t have spoken much to her,
“Tell me where YingYing is, you can do anything to me YingYing innocent, let him go.”
YeMu smirked again, she pointed her chain towards a tree and pulled something out of it, it’s BaiYing.
“YingYing!” LuoXiang was about to approach quickly but YeMu’s hand went up, the chain wrapped around the young man’s neck.
And LuoXiang couldn’t get any closer, YeMu’s eyes said that she could break BaiYing’s neck in an instant very easily.
“Back off! If His Majesty still wants his body intact, you’d better stay where you are.”
Best
LuoXiang gulped, seeing with big eyes BaiYing’s limp body was lifted by the chains wrapped around his body, slowly the young man’s wistful eyes opened, he tried to restrain the chains that were wrapped around his neck while looking at the Crown Prince who was not far in front of him.
“Y-Your Majesty”
LuoXiang backed away, he raised his sword.
“Alright, I’ll back off, let go of YingYing, he’s just a weak young man, you know what he can’t do, there’s a lot, why take a weak and useless kid like him?”
YeMu smiled.
“Hey, weak? I don’t know, I’m doubtful, if he’s as weak as you think, all my drugs seem to be just candy to him, it has no effect at all, but...” YeMu took out something from behind her waist, a small bottle with a reddish color.
“This is a poison extract, called as Blooming for a Thousand Years, belonging to the DuGu family, the name is a thousand years, meaning that it contains all the most dangerous poisons that the DuGu family has ever created, I’ve heard, this poison is so dangerous it can even kill a buffalo with just a touch, it could melt organs into mush in no time, and, what is very interesting, when all the organs in the body melt, the victim is still conscious until he dies in a very miserable state, with all five senses bleeding, this is very interesting, I really want to see what will happen if this weak kid drinks it, too bad, my father hasn’t had time to make the antidote, whoops, oh no, I forgot, this bottle was already empty, Did I actually gave it to him earlier? I’m sorry I forgot such an important thing, hm, this would be the perfect time to see the Crown Prince watch him die agonizingly.”
LuoXiang’s eyes widened, his chest thumped, imagining what was inside the bottle now is in BaiYing’s body, what would happen to him?
