Luo Xiang had just finished enjoying his breakfast with Bai Ying and the others, while until then not a single city official had come to pick up the blackened corpse. It’s really disturbing Bai Ying’s appetite who several times unconsciously often looks at the front room. They thought the city security guards would come quickly so that the bad sight would escape Bai Ying, but they didn’t.

The curious Bai Ying immediately got up from his seat. Xiao Hong followed him.

“Ying where are you going?” Luo Xiang asked.

“Where else is Your Majesty, I’m curious how a human’s body can become that black.”

Xiao Hong clung to Bai Ying’s back as the youth approached the figure covered by a white cloth in the centre of the room. He lowered his body, but had not yet touched the body, Bai Ying’s eyes flashed red.

Luo Xiang and Chen Ming approached quickly.

“Akh” something popped into his head, something so heavy and cold, he pulled his hand away from his body.

“Ying Ying what happened?” asked the Crown Prince anxiously.

.....

Bai Ying slowly turned his head, the pair of gleams in his eyes slowly dissipating.

He was just about to get up and talk when he heard a voice from the door.

“Get away from the body!” exclaimed one of the men dressed in the city guard’s officer who had arrived, there were approximately six people approaching the living room.

The one in the front looked at Bai Ying and the others, his face looked very haughty, either because of his fairly high position among the others, his hand almost pushed against Bai Ying’s chest but Su Lang’s long spear pushed him away.

“Don’t you even dare you to lay your dirty hand on His Majesty, even a little, don’t blame me for cutting your hands off.” Su Lang’s voice was cold with a fierce look.

Not to mention Bei Yau and Ge Lu who were looking intently at the city guards. The few young city guards swallowed their saliva whole, the look in Su Lang and Bei Yu’s eyes was enough to make their knees weak.

“Eh Please forgive us, I-I mean, let us handle it from here, hehehe”

Bai Ying backed away, giving way to the city guards who were two at the very back carrying stretchers to pick up the two victims.

“Ouch, the smell is so strong,” complained one of the officers who lifted the bodies one by one onto a stretcher.

“It didn’t smell this bad last time,” whispered one of the officers.

Bai Ying heard it.

“Um last time? Really? It’s happened before, hasn’t it?” he asked.

His question made the city security officers glance at each other, looking for who had the big mouth, they blamed each other.

Luo Xiang pulled Bai Ying away.

“Come on Ying, this is none of our business, let them do their job.”

Crown Prince pulled Bai Ying back to their place, seeing the Crown Prince retreat, Bei Yau and the others stepped aside, letting the city security officers do their job. One body bollard was lifted into each stretcher, there were two stretchers which were immediately lifted by two men in front and behind, who carried the body towards the door.

One of the men who was probably the head guard bowed his head respectfully at Bei Yau who was standing by the door.

“Thank you young master for reporting this matter, after that, we will take care of it, hope young masters can return to enjoying a pleasant holiday while in town, without any disturbance”

Bei Yau nodded. He crossed his arms in front of his chest with one hand holding his longsword which was still in its scabbard tightly. The town clerk looked at Bei Yau and the others, briefly looking at Luo Xiang and Bai Ying who were certainly the most eye-catching of the bunch.

“Em, if I may know, gentlemen, where are you from, and where are you going?” he asked.

Bei Yau lowered his hands, not wanting to have much to do with the city’s security guards.

“Just some passerby”

The young officer nodded and smiled.

“Hehe, well then, em, then, I’ll excuse myself first.”

Bei Yau watched the city officials exit the inn to the carriage they had brought from the town officials’ office.

While Bai Ying who was standing beside the Crown Prince whispered.

“Eh Your Majesty, I can feel a very evil aura from the two bodies, very dark and heavy, whatever kills them, it must not be an ordinary being, because my eyes can sense whether it is a mystical being, or a demon”

Luo Xiang clenched his fists think. He didn’t really want to know much about any kind of business, after all, they wouldn’t be staying there long, why deal with things that didn’t concern them?

He lowered his hand to take Bai Ying’s hand and gripped it tightly.

“That’s none of our business Ying, let’s get ready to depart, the journey to Sui Lian is still quite far, don’t hinder ourselves in matters that we shouldn’t interfere with”

Bai Ying pulled his lips, he nodded slowly, that’s right, that’s none of their business, whatever it is, every city has an authorized officer, they can definitely handle their own problems.

“Yeah, Ying thought that too”

....

The entourage was ready to hit the road to leave the inn when heavy rain fell on Yang Chou City towards noon. Strong winds blew down several flagpoles and merchant carts. It didn’t take long for the water to flood the city’s main road, although it didn’t rise too high, it was quite troublesome. The sky looked very dark even though it was supposed to be midday.

Crown Prince stood at the door watching his men busy securing their carriages and horses and supplies from the rain.

Ge Lu approached quickly after receiving news from one of the innkeepers.

“Report Your Majesty, the road leading out of the city is covered with mud, and the rain hasn’t stopped yet, according to the locals it will usually flood the road and make the road a bit flooded and we have to avoid the main road.”

Luo Xiang who was standing looking far ahead with his hands behind his waist nodded slowly.

“I know that Guard Ge, we’ll postpone the departure until tomorrow, see how it goes”

Ge Lu nodded.

“Yes, Your Majesty” and retreat in an orderly manner.

Before long Bei Yau approached.

“Your Majesty”

Luo Xiang turned his head, strolled away from the door and sat back in his chair.

“Bei did you get any news from Yue Yang? What are the conditions on the north coast? Yue Yang is probably closest to the north, we will back to the palace after taking care of that black Tortoise”

Bei Yau lowered his head.

“Report Your Majesty, Guard Liu has informed that there was indeed an evacuation at the San Po border, outside Xi Po city which is closest to the Black Tortoise river, the air temperature dropped drastically to make some places uninhabitable, but so far the government the area can still solve the problem, according to Liu, the Emperor has issued an order for the southern ranks to go down to the field towards the riverside to help, as far as I get from Guard Liu, there is no creature that makes the great river the black tortoise turbulent, they think it’s just an annual phenomenon that happens all too often.”

Luo Xiang enjoyed the tea, stirring it a number of times gracefully.

“The black tortoise probably hasn’t done anything yet, otherwise, the north won’t be this calm, who knows what he’s waiting for”

Bei Yau nodded.

“That’s also what I thought Your Majesty if the black tortoise really had awakened, the coastal area would not be in a state of calm, whatever it was there would be great turmoil, perhaps, the fault had not yet arrived, Your Majesty.”

Luo Xiang put his cup on the table.

“That can’t be, Bei, according to Uncle Li, as well as Elder Yi, as soon as the Southern fire appears the waters in the north will be turbulent, if the order is like that, we may not have much time, afraid that the black tortoise that awakens will dominate the north and make it too late for us to deal with it, even a great power of the Realm King will find it very difficult to suppress it.”

Bei Yau raised his head, he was about to speak again when he saw Bai Ying and Xiao Hong appear from the direction of the stairs.

“Your Majesty, then we’re not leaving today?” Bai Ying asked, he peeked outside where the sky was very dark at that time, the cold wind that blew cold he could clearly feel it.

Luo Xiang stood up and grabbed Bai Ying’s hand.

“It seems like it, my Ying Ying, come on, let’s just go back to the room, the air is getting colder outside”

Bai Ying looked disappointed, his face wrinkled.
