Chapter 557
Hearing that Bi close her mouth, he held Bai Ying’s body from coming out because that person was quite dangerous.
“Your Majesty, then we should stay away from here, come on” she whispered.
Bai Ying nodded, he was about to leave again when the person who was talking to Du Gu Ye Wang, who had his back turned to him for a long time, turned around. Bai Ying’s eyes went wide.
“I don’t want to know, all of our plans must be successful by the day after tomorrow at the latest, I don’t want to delay it too long” exclaimed the man who was none other than Lo Yi.
Bai Ying close his mouth, how could Lo Yi talk to Du Gu Ye Wang like that? What are they really talking about? He was about to go out but Bi’s hand held him
“Your Majesty, don’t” she whispered, the two of them stood behind a large tree and thick bush that properly covered both of their bodies from the sight of the two people who then left. Bi pulled Bai Ying’s hand around in another direction as the two men walked past their current position.
Bai Ying was about to ask Bi, why does she keep him from coming out? But Bi was right, the two of them spoke far enough from everyone, of course, so that no one else could hear their conversation, what is really going on here?

The Crown Prince and General Po had just finished a discussion in the old General’s private room. A large number of guests in his residence made the old general uneasy, and Luo Xiang just found out why.
Luo Xiang had just witnessed what had been the general’s secret that he was planning to carry to death. But the presence of the Crown Prince and the others in his residence made him think again. Luo Xiang saw a small object that size was not more than the old general’s palm. Resembling a lever made of iron with a shiny red dominance. The shape of the carving on the small handle resembles an eagle’s head with a very graceful and dashing shape. It was General Song’s secret weapon that he used to protect Wah Ye’s palace from the onslaught of mystical enemies. But it has not been used for a long time, whether it still functions or is just an ancient weapon.
“This small object, how to use it old general?” Luo Xiang asked.
General Po frowned, he tried to remember.
“Emm, I also don’t really understand, Your Majesty, when my father used it, I was still too young. And as I recall, my father almost rarely used it. At the last moment, before the palace sank, he used this weapon to repel the enemy and give the King and his family time to escape. Even the force of the wind blows away everyone in the distance, somehow if they get close.”
“You should return this weapon to the Xin Hua palace, the palace protection mechanism can keep this thing safe in its place, we don’t know what will happen if it falls into the hands of irresponsible people, although we are not sure if it still can be used or not.”
General Po lowered his head in front of the Crown Prince.
“I know that Your Majesty, please forgive my negligence, just waiting for the right time to return him to the palace, I am old, my memory is not good enough. I forgot about it completely until recently when I built the villa at the back, I just realized that in a secret room that I haven’t opened in a long time because I’m rarely at home, I have some of my father’s relics. Some things are not so important only this one, which I only realized when it turned out to be there all along.”
Luo Xiang put his hands behind his waist. In fact, very secretly there was no one else in General Po’s room apart from the two of them. Even Bei Yau didn’t come in with him.
Luo Xiang held his breath.
“Heh, this matter, for some reason I have a bad feeling old man, what, maybe, someone is deliberately making a fuss so that we can all enter your residence.”
Hearing that General Po widened his eyes.
“Your Majesty, that is...”
“Well even though it could be due to coincidence old man, for now, we all have to be extra vigilant. Don’t let other people enter your room, but also don’t draw attention to your room, just live everything normally. I’m sure you feel the same way, don’t you?”
General Po lowered his head. He nodded slowly.
“That’s right Your Majesty, I also feel something strange”
...........
Without waiting long, the match finally started.
The White Cloud Clan who came as the committee made sure all the clans got their share of the order.
On the first day, Yi Fang and Ye Lu passed in the elimination round. Yi Fang who was famous for his twin thin cleavers did not give his opponent time to attack, he only took a few steps and his opponent had already fallen motionless.
Meanwhile, Ye Lu, who couldn’t use the black chain because of Ye Wang’s warning, was forced to use another weapon, namely a small flying machete that he threw from the long chain. Xi Hu gave the weapon as he lost his black chain after fighting Bai Ying back then.
The Crown Prince and Bai Ying sat in the reserved seats with Chen Ming, Elder Yi, General Po, and Sang Guan Yi Lu. The situation so far is safe, maybe Luo Xiang is just having bad thoughts, he thought as he lifted his teacup and savoured it slowly. He didn’t really observe the match, only Bai Ying had not stopped being amazed.
“Wow, that’s great.”
The sun soon fell in the west and general Po’s mansion went dark again. The game stopped just after sunset and everyone sat down to enjoy the dinner that had been prepared in the great hall.
Luo Xiang put the pieces of meat into Bai Ying’s bowl, while he was still busy choosing what to eat first.
“Ying eat this first”
Bai Ying smiled widely until his eyes disappeared, he was too excited.
“Hehe Your Majesty, all of this food is delicious, I’m confused about which one to eat first”
“Why are you confused, just eat all you want, here, your favourite soy sauce chicken”
Luo Xiang raised his hand to smooth Bai Ying’s hair that fell on his forehead as he ate, blocking his view.
“Look at your hair, eat slowly Ying”
The young man stuffed the food until his mouth bulged, but he still managed to smile at the Crown Prince who shook his head.
“This kid” instead of eating, the Crown Prince was busy serving Bai Ying, cleaning his chin which was affected by the soup.
“Your Majesty, open your mouth,” said Bai Ying, thrusting the piece of meat he had chopsticks into the Crown Prince’s mouth.
Luo Xiang smiled. He opened his mouth wide and let the boy put the food in his mouth.
“Umm, delicious.”
Bai Ying chuckled.
“Hehehe, right, Your Majesty.”
Meanwhile, on the other hand, Chen Ming was sitting gracefully enjoying his meal with Xiao Hong and Bei Yau beside him.
“Your Majesty, this is taste good, give it a try.” Bei Yau said putting the pieces of meat into Chen Ming’s vegetable bowl.
Chen Ming, who was busy enjoying his meal, didn’t bother to look at Bei Yau and Xiao Hong, who had been busy serving him a meal.
“Your Majesty try this one” Xiao Hong whispered.
Chen Ming didn’t care, he was tired of avoiding the two people who were always clinging to him, it was better to just enjoy his food without any distractions.
He didn’t care what the two of them were doing until the moment Bei Yau’s hand touched his cheek.
“Your Majesty, please forgive me but there are some crumps here” Bei Yau gently caressed Chen Ming’s cheek where there were indeed very few crumbs that were actually barely visible to the eye. But Bei Yau saw that he was so close to Chen Ming that their faces almost touched. If not for Xiao Hong’s voice stops him.
“Ahem, Guard Bei, pardon me, but you disturbed the Prince’s meal, please moves a little back,” said Xiao Hong reaching out his hand to hold Bai Yau’s chest to move forward.
Bei Yau smiled. He could smell the Chen Ming that he had longed for, of course, that was more than enough, for today.
“Eh, please forgive me, Your Majesty, I just can’t stand to see the slightest dirt on your smooth flawless face, what an impudent filth”
Chen Ming pulled his lips, the bodyguard was getting more and more insolent towards him, he continued to eat without bothering to care about him anymore, why did he spoil his mood because of the man who could only irritate him?
“Eh, Hong, hurry up and eat, I’m tired, I want to take a warm bath and sleep, don’t stay here too long,” said Chen Ming.
Xiao Hong nodded.
“Yes, Your Majesty,” Xiao Hong said taking the food into his bowl, he still had time to glance at Bei Yau who looked at him with a sharp look as if to show that he won this time.
