461 Headed to Ku Chang

Bai Ying sat inside the moving chariot, this time to make it easier to pass through the forest and mountain roads, the chariot the group was using was much smaller than usual.

Yesterday morning at Elder Yi’s residence, he heard the harsh truth that when the fifth element awakens, he may disappear from the earth, which means, he may be lost his life in this battle.

From what Elder Yi know, he said, the black snake was a creature that escaped from the heaven thousands of years ago, after being captured and about to be boiled alive as medicine, it rebelled and stole all the essence pills from the Gods and ate them, that creature had already experienced all the most severe kinds of suffering and punishment from the heavens but still, they couldn’t destroy it.

Therefore the heavens cursed it to become a land dweller and subsist on the essence of other living beings to survive, and even then there could be no more than five people in a few months. However, recently, after the crack that made the elemental revive from its long slumber, the black snake seemed to have found a boundless power that allowed it to use its powers however it pleased, including sucking in the essence of humans as much as it wanted, to protect its mortal body.

Elder Yi said that he knew a man who used to be his younger brother in Medicine Valley who could help Bai Ying and the others get complete information about the palace, as far as he know, that person was very old now, he was probably around ninety years and already living a quiet and peaceful life as a part of the main Advisor of the city of Ku Chang. Bai Ying and the others could look to him for further advice.

Bai Ying held the Savior coin that was hanging around his neck, he didn’t expect that his grandfather Wu Yi would hand the coin to him, after what he did, killed his entire family, killed his own granddaughter, couple of times tried to kill him, can he still have feelings of love for his family? So, whether this coin will work or not, he can’t rely on it too much, so this journey is still the toughest journey he will go through, his little heart hopes, they will get lost and arrive at Ku Chang much later than they planned, so that he and the Crown Prince didn’t have to face such a sad fate, but, he couldn’t, right now everyone was relying on their fights to overthrow Xue Hua, especially, the black snakes that inhabited the snow plains of Ku Chang and Hei Wu.

But, their first mission right now was naturally to find out where the Black Tortoise was, which Elder Yi thought was most likely in Queen Bo Yan’s hands, how could that be? The giant tortoise could be in the woman’s grasp? What great power does Queen Bo Yan actually have? She must be very terrifying, Bai Ying thought, gripping his Savior coin tightly.

While in the golden carriage which was at the rear, the Second Prince was seen relaxing in his carriage, Guard Pang rode beside the carriage.

“Your Majesty, may I know what is in the letter from His Majesty the Emperor?” asked Guard Pang.

.....

Luo Yan sat leisurely while enjoying his tea. The size of the carriage was not bigger than usual which made him complain, but it can’t be helped, they travelled to a place where the terrain is quite difficult to pass, and he has to compromise this time.

“Heh, the old man ordered us to go back to the palace, according to him we are not the opponent of Queen Bo Yan, but at this time we all are not her opponent, do we need to go back to, Guard Pang?” he asked.

The fat bodyguard frowned.

“Your Majesty, please forgive me, we are all really not Queen Bo Yan’s opponent, her strength is said to be very strong and ruthless, she is not one to be compromised with, let alone to spare her enemies.”

Luo Yan poured the tea in the teapot into his cup, finishing it at once.

“That, makes it quite interesting, I’m curious how the Queen who is said to be able to conquer the black turtle, and said to be so beautiful among all the women in earth and heaven, I wonder, what beauty in this world can beat Concubine Hua’s beauty in my eyes, I’m really so curious”

.....

Cold water clan in the north.

The clan that occupied a large complex at the foot of the Black forest mountain was renowned for the astute combat power of its numerous members and disciples. Some had even become leaders of the martial world and travelled to carry the good reputation of the Clan all over the land. But recently the clan that was the centre of the big city of Ku Chang was busy with the many guests from the martial world who had come after hearing of the upheaval that had occurred in the snow mountain and the waters of the Hei Wu great river.

The clan master, Xi Lei was a very busy host, and for safety reasons, the women, wives and daughters and grandchildren were evacuated out of the city, away from Ku Chang as far as possible. Now the Cold Water clan complex is only guarded by men, adult children to tough soldiers. All the young people who were willing to die fighting for their freedom from Queen Bo Yan’s grip which grew stronger, Queen Bo Yan did not hesitate to drop her hand on the clan and several times her troops were seen carrying out attacks near the foot of the Black forest mountain.

That afternoon, members of the offensive division of the Cold Water clan led by Xi Hu and assisted by Lin Mo succeeded in repelling the troops from Xue Hua who crossed the Black mountain and freed several important captives who were immediately evacuated to the new temporary compound the clan had built outside the mansion, right in the Orchid Valley behind the Xi family house complex. One of the captives that were rescued was the young Prince of Xue Hua palace who had been the previous captive of Queen Bo Yan, prince Yue Huan, son of the former King Xue Hue, Yue Liaw.

Xi Hu passed a cup of tea into Yue Huan’s hand who looked quite pitiful.

“Prince, drink this.”

Two of his wrists were scuffed from the shackles of chains while in the custody of General Te Yi, one of Queen Bo Yan’s loyal generals who finally lose his life miserably after fighting face to face with Xi Hu last night, after a fierce battle that cost them nearly half of the General Lin Mo’s troops and the Cold Water Clan members were injured or even killed.

Prince Yue Huan’s body was covered in wounds here and there, his beautiful clothes were torn apart almost everywhere, dirty and stained with blood and mud, his long beautiful hair was almost dreadlocks from being in a puddle of mud and dry again, his body was frail and trembling, he even had trouble holding the teacup with his two shaking hands.

“Thank you, Mr Xi, w-what about the rest of my men?” he asked, the young prince’s eyes looked sad, no matter how great the horror he had witnessed and experienced, until his once-proud eyes seemed to lose their light, he even hesitated to see Young Master Xi’s eyes smiling at him.

“Eh, three people have already been taken care of, and, unfortunately, the other two were not made it, please forgive me, Prince, we came late.”

Prince Yue Huan couldn’t lift his teacup, even holding it was difficult because of shaking hands followed by pain in his heart that he couldn’t control, Xi Hu took the cup from the Prince’s hand before he dropped it.

“Prince”

“That Queen, she, killed Father before my eyes, that demonic woman, also stripped Mother, and made all the guards see her naked body, she, even put her hand, into... into the Crown Prince’s chest, a-and, eating his heart, he is, a demon, how, can there be such a cruel person, ems” the intense pain in Yue Huan’s chest that was too great to make his voice stifled from the pain. He clenched his fists and cried, unable to hold back the tears he had turned into hatred, but, he lost, everything he did to fight back, was all in vain.

Xi Hu couldn’t do anything to cheer him up, he turned to General Lin Mo who was standing not far behind him, and towards the door, where his uncles came in.

“Hu er”

The elder of the Western division, Xi Tou entered with his aides and advisors. The middle-aged man with a cold face and a slight grey beard on his chin entered gracefully, two hands behind his waist and stopped in front of the door for a moment to look into the hall.
