598 As It Is

“Hei Your Majesty, I’m with Fo Wang here, can’t we wait until we’re done?” he asked.

Luo Xiang look into Bai Ying’s eyes, and without notice, he lowered his body down and carry him like a princess.

“Your Majesty, what are you doing? Please let me go!” he shouted as he was surprised.

“Don’t be noisy, we’re done here”

“No Your Majesty, it’s not done yet!”

Luo Xiang pretend he didn’t hear anything from the boy.

“Your Majesty!”

.......

The loud sound of the huge gong filled the already nearly formless hall of Dai Yang’s palace. Since the situation was gradually safe, the palace workers and Ministers had returned to cleaning the palace as best they could. Although it will take a long time to rebuild the palace as before.

.....

The Emperor and Empress stood in front of the huge chair that had been rendered out of shape by the rubble, half bowing to Crown Prince Luo Xiang and Bai Ying.

“Really, we don’t know how to thank you, our big gratitude to Your Majesty the Crown Prince and Viceroy”

The Emperor and others were about to lower their knees but Luo Xiang quickly stopped them.

“Your Majesty the Emperor, I don’t deserve your respect, all of this is just our duty to help each other” he held the Emperor’s hands clenched in front of his chest to keep him standing. So did Bai Ying with the Queen.

The Emperor looked at Luo Xiang for a moment, then the Viceroy beside him, and looked around where his majestic palace was destroyed in an instant, what would have happened to them if the Crown Prince of Yue Yang and the Viceroy of Xin Hua had not come to help? Does he still deserve to be called the Emperor?

He shook his head, taking a deep breath.

“Heh, really don’t know what would have happened if the Crown Prince and Viceroy didn’t help us, this country would have been destroyed without leaving the slightest trace. I didn’t expect Chai Ni who was so quiet and innocent to be this powerful and cruel, I really have been negligent.”

The Crown Prince and Bai Ying looked at each other. Luo Xiang knew how Bai Ying was trying to refrain from blaming the Emperor for what had happened to Chai Ni who was now languishing in Dai Yang’s dungeon. However, the Princess had made a very big mistake, regardless of the reasons that made her do all that.

Bai Ying finally turned around and headed towards the door without another word.

“Ying” Luo Xiang couldn’t stop the young man, he must be very disappointed.

Luo Xiang glanced at Bei Yau to follow Bai Ying out of the hall.

Out from the building.

The sun was shining brightly, with the warm air carried by the wind gently caressing Bai Ying’s hair. The young man sat on the edge of a large pond not far behind the ravaged palace accompanied by Er Wang who sat resting in the pond. The dragon was enjoying its relaxing bath time.

“What is the Realm King thinking?” asked Er Wang.

Bei Yau was standing not far behind Bai Ying, the young guard himself could not see the physical form of Er Wang who was beside Bai Ying now.

Bai Ying plucked the long grass not far beside him which he had been playing in his hands for a while, with a boundless foresight ahead.

“Old man, why is life so unfair? Even though Princess Chai Ni made a fatal mistake, she did it all because of a huge heartache. Her revenge makes her do anything she can to punish everyone who has hurt her family. She actually didn’t do much wrong.”

Er Wang had flicked his long tail from the pool water which made the water churn. Even though Bei Yau couldn’t see the dragon’s form, he wasn’t strange anymore that the invisible movements in the water were caused by Er Wang.

Er Wang snorted before answering.

“Hemh, King of Realm, I lived long enough to know what human nature really is, not all humans are like the King of Realm who knows how to treat other humans the way you want to be treated, all human passions, desires, envy to hatred, all are human nature that will never be lost forever.”

Bai Ying nodded.

“That’s true, we can’t predict what humans will do to other humans, it’s just, sometimes thinking about how unfair it all is, makes us can’t stop thinking about it. This time the punishment Princess Chai Ni will receive is not small, at least the Emperor would sentence her to death. Although I realize that her mistake was indeed fatal, I just can’t stop thinking about it.”

Er Wang snorted back.

“Hemh, King of Realm, all life is as it is, no matter how hard we try, there will be things that are unfair in our eyes, but, we can’t do anything to change it, everything has been determined by fate, and humans, are creatures. who can’t avoid them at least.”

Bai Ying pulled the grass stalk in his hand and threw it in front of him, he could only hold his breath for a moment before throwing it heavily. He turned and found the Crown Prince who was already stopped not far behind him.

He drew near.

“Ying Ying”

Luo Xiang glanced at Er Wang who looked very big behind Bai Ying. Since becoming the fifth element, Luo Xiang has never met Er Wang. And now it feels quite different. Strength-wise, their levels should be balanced, but in terms of experience and spirituality, Er Wang was definitely much higher than him. In addition, that being was not only a guardian of the eastern winds, but a mystical being who had fused with the King of Realms, Er Wang’s strength was definitely no match for him.

“Old man, do you still have business here?” Luo Xiang asked.

Er Wang stretched his body, letting half of his body be submerged in the warm water.

“Crown Prince, Heavenly King, does my presence bother you?” he asked.

Luo Xiang stopped beside Bai Ying, unable to stop staring at him.

“No, it’s just that Liu Yang is definitely in dire need of your presence in the city, have you forgotten that you are physically locked up in the pagoda and can’t get out?” he asked.

Er Wang widened his eyes. Pushing his huge head in front of Luo Xiang.

“That may be true, Heavenly King, but as long as the Realm King himself calls me I can go wherever I want, especially when the Realm King is in dire need of help”

Er Wang’s reply left Luo Xiang speechless, they obviously had to be grateful to Er Wang for helping Xiao Hong hold the lava and hot clouds from hitting the surrounding area, otherwise, who knows how many victims have fallen.

Luo Xiang wouldn’t pay any attention to him anymore, the dragon was getting smarter in speech since the last time they met, and after a while, his nature was similar to Bai Ying’s.

Luo Xiang lowered his body behind Bai Ying.

“Come on Ying Ying, we are looking for an inn in the middle of the city, we can’t stay in this wrecked palace any longer.”

Bai Ying turned his head. Looking at the surroundings full of ruins, even though there were many soldiers and workers who immediately cleaned it up but surely all of them took a lot of time to tidy up.

“Then, what about Princess Chai Ni’s fate, Your Majesty? Then, how is Brother Lo Yi doing?” asked Bai Ying, he remembered that he hadn’t gotten a chance to see Lo Yi in a state of unconsciousness after suffering severe injuries from overexerting himself.

“He’s in good hands, you don’t have to worry about that person, as for Chai Ni, I don’t know what the Emperor will do to punish her, it’s definitely not a petty crime, she will receive a pretty big punishment. You know we can’t do anything about it, Ying?”

Bai Ying nodded slowly, as expected.

“That’s right”

Luo Xiang stretched out his hand to help Bai Ying up.

“Come on, let’s get going, our business here is done. We should head back to Yue Yang immediately.”

The two then walked along the path out of the garden area.

“Your Majesty, then, won’t it be a problem if we take Fo Wang’s remains out of the forest area? It will only become an ordinary tree branch later, what if someone finds it and uses it as firewood? Does that mean it will die? Then, what if it ran away on the way?” Bai Ying asked. f𝓇𝘦e𝑤𝘦𝚋𝒏૦ѵℯ𝒍.c𝐨𝒎

“This stupid kid, who would go to the trouble of picking him up from the bottom of such a dangerous river just to make it into firewood, that’s not going to happen. After all, Fo Wang’s strength is getting weaker when he comes out of Fo Wang’s forest area, he will become a little mystical creature like the others, so there is very little chance of it escaping.”

After the discussion on how to punish Fo Wang so that he would no longer be a problem on the mountain in the future, based on Er Wang’s experience as well as the book Chen Ming read, they finally decided to order General Yan to take Fo Wang’s remains away from Fo Wang’s mountain area. General Yan’s most trusted men took the root they said was a cursed object far away and threw it into the black riverbed in the north. The black tortoise ensured that the creature would never be able to get out of the bottom of the water until finally, Fo Wang would just be another mystical creature who only had a low consciousness without enough spiritual energy to wreak havoc on the next.

While Er Wang is still unwilling to get out of the pond, he got his days off, and he is going to enjoy it to the fullest.

“Oh this is so nice”
