Chapter 673 - 673 Take as Hostage
“Xiao Hong stop it!” Elder Yi shouted making the flames that Xiao Hong threw a strike in another direction, towards the soldiers who were attacking Luo Wang and the others simultaneously.
“Ah!”
That was a heavy blow. Luo Xiang still did not take his eyes off Bai Ying and the man who had brought him, until suddenly he was no longer where he saw last him last time. Luo Xiang widened his eyes. That man is gone, with Bai Ying.
“Ying Ying!”
Damn it, thought Luo Xiang who thoughtlessly dashed towards the tree and chased the man who took Bai Ying with him.
“Damn it. Bei!” he shouted inviting Bei Yau to join in the chase.
Bei Yau stomped off towards the trees and caught up with Luo Xiang to chase after the man.
Xiao Hong saw Elder Yi sharp as well as Shin Ya, the old but young man who disturbed Xiao Hong causing his attack to miss. Chen Ming and Yen Hui approached.
.....
“Elder Yi, what do you think you doing? Why did you prevent Xiao Hong from attacking that man? Now he is taking my brother with him!” Chen Ming exclaimed looking at Elder Yi sharply.
“You guys, don’t hurt that man, he is my Master, Sheng Li who forged the divine sword and split the dragon pearl in Liu Yang”
Elder Yi’s answer made Chen Ming and Shin Ya stare at the man for a long time until both of them looked at each other.
“Master Sheng Li? But, what is he doing in Wah Ye?” Shin Ya asked.
.....
Luo Xiang and Bei Yau managed to catch up to the man carrying Bai Ying on his shoulders. Without slowing down, Bei Yau drew his sword towards the man in black from the front while Luo Xiang smashed into him and tried to grab Bai Ying from his arms.
A heavy impact occurred, Luo Xiang’s internal strength was strong enough to push the man away with his impact which caused the young man to almost be hit by Bei Yau’s sword.
“Damn it” but the man did not easily let go of his grip on Bai Ying. He directed his other palm to push Luo Xiang and retreated very quickly from his position while carrying Bai Ying on his shoulders.
“Whossh!”
Again Luo Xiang couldn’t take Bai Ying away from that person, his movement was too fast.
“Damn, let go of Bai Ying, you have no business with him, why are you taking him for!” Luo Xiang exclaimed. His palms released golden energy, but that made his chest hurt unbelievably, he was using too much internal energy.
The man smirked. His hair fell loose after Bei Yau’s sword had hit his bun. The wind blew hard against his clothes and Bai Ying who was on his shoulders.
“Hey, who said I have nothing to do with him, I have been waiting for this child for a long time, did not expect to find himself here, I’m so lucky,” said the man.
Luo Xiang clenched his fists, his eyes flashed seeing the man say that as if he knew them. That was impossible, he and Bai Ying were not from this world, and no one knows them. In reality, they were never even here.
“You have recognized the wrong person, I don’t think he is the person you are looking for, let Ying Ying go,” Luo Xiang said. Bei Yau was on alert, he was ready to attack in case the man was to flee the other way. He could feel how strong the internal pressure was, he was definitely not an ordinary person.
The man smiled, he looked at Bai Ying and his eyes lit up seeing something inside Bai Ying’s body, something caught his attention.
“Of course, I know him, he is the blesses child with the dragon pearl, I’m really lucky to be able to find him after a long time searching, I already looking for him everywhere”
Luo Xiang’s eyes widened seeing the man get ready to flee. But even though he had prepared himself he and Bei Yau still couldn’t prevent the man from escaping.
“No!” Luo Xiang exclaimed.
The white smoke that shone brightly blinded their eyes, making Luo Xiang and Bei Yau close their eyes, in only a matter of seconds, the man had disappeared again from their sight.
“No, let go of Ying Ying!”
....
Chen Ming almost pushed Elder Yi down if it wasn’t for Shin Ya’s hand holding him.
“Your Highness, hold yourself”
Chen Ming glared at Elder Yi, that man clearly chose to save his master over Bai Ying, and that made him unable to forgive him. But he couldn’t do much more than take a sharp look, after all that person was an old man, and he couldn’t beat him to his heart’s content.
“Damn it!”
Luo Wang approached after securing Prince Fang Li who was now in Song Ma Yi’s custody, while he released Commander Wu and his troops who had been seriously injured to return to the palace to report today’s events.
“Calm yourself, Young master, we can exchange your Brother for this useless Prince,” said Luo Wang who sat down on the rock where Yen Hui was sitting.
“Hui er, are you okay?” he asked.
Ye Hui nodded.
“I’m fine, Brother, but, Brother Hua, that man took him.”
“Do you recognize who that man is?” asked Luo Wang.
Yen Hui thought, he frowned deeply while trying to remember, then slowly shook his head.
“Um, I’ve never seen him in the palace before, is there a possibility that he isn’t the Queen Mother’s man, huh?”
Yen Hui’s speech made Chen Ming turn to him.
“Not the Queen’s man? Is that true, Prince..”
Chen Ming looked at Prince Fang Li who was in Song Ma Yi’s captivity. The young prince pursed his mouth.
“Should I know him? That insignificant person.”
Soon Luo Xiang and Bei Yau returned, empty-handed without Bai Ying with them. He looked at everyone and stopped at Chen Ming. Approached him quickly.
“Prince Chen, quickly track down where Bai Ying is now!” he exclaimed.
That’s right, why didn’t he think of that? Immediately, Chen Ming took out the tracking coin hanging around his neck, they could find Bai Ying no matter where he was right now.
...…..
Near the waterfall valley. With the refreshing air and beautiful scenery around the small hut complex not far from the waterfall.
The sound of tea being poured into a jade cup filled the void of sound. Although it’s in the small hut complex, the room turns out to be so exquisite, with lots of high-art gleaming items from Pai Hua sandalwood carvings to bonsai plants on the table.
Slowly, the man lowered Bai Ying’s unconscious body onto the cot near the wall of the large room. Another man sat at a round table pouring tea in a second cup for his guests that afternoon.
The man known by Elder Yi as Sheng Li, his great teacher sat down at the table after making sure Bai Ying was comfortable in his bed.
The other man sitting opposite Sheng Li raised his lips in a smile.
“Hey, did you come out of the valley just to bring this little kid back? Li er, are you starting to like a cute and handsome young man now? I admit, he is really very attractive, if you didn’t say he was a boy I would have thought he was a cute little girl”
He was Bu Sang, a fellow scholar of Sheng Li, a renowned technician who was one of several other master builders known to build the extraordinary mechanisms of the Wah Ye palace.
Sheng Li sat down in front of his partner and downed his tea in one go.
“Hehe, he is our lost shard, Sang er, with this my plan to make the number one sword in the world can finally come true. This is in accordance with the shaman’s prediction which says that one day, there will come a kid from another world who has a shining heart, and I see it, his heart, shining before my eyes.”
Bu Sang who was enjoying the fried peanuts in the bowl in front of him widened his eyes.
“Really?” he looked at the young man lying unconscious on the cot. The thick bearded young man with big round eyes and upturned eyebrows frowned.
“Where? I can’t see anything, or did you just imagine seeing something you wish for? You hang out with that shaman too much, making you believe in these kinds of strange things, don’t you think you’re weird?”
Sheng Li smiled. He gorged on the peanuts in front of him and enjoyed it too, occasionally still glancing at the unconscious Bai Ying.
“Because only I who can see it. His heart is shining, according to the Shaman, because he has a dragon pearl shard in his body that makes his heart shine.”
