CROWN PRINCE'S CONCUBINE

593 Fiery

The sky turned dark. The sun had just risen but the sky above Fo Wang Mountain and its surroundings was covered in dark clouds. The wind blows hard to take all the hot air waving far all over the places. The rumbling sound of hot lava from the roiling volcano that rose to the surface after sleeping for a hundred years, shattered the mountain and its surroundings.

From a distance, the forest-dwelling birds can be seen flying to a safe place. The howling of wolves and others echoed from the distance. Chaos rose all over the area.

Xiao Hong supported Chen Ming who was still limping with his injured leg and managed to climb the ravine and stopped just below the foot of the mountain where hot lava began to appear at the mouth of the volcano.

“Hong, what will happen if all that lava overflows?” Chen Ming asked looking around, of course, the huge mountain was located at the very top of the area, including above the Dai Yang palace which was in its lava flow, as well as the city of Bu Mo.

“Surely there will be a lot of casualties, Your Majesty, hot lava is usually followed by acid rain of hot clouds that can burn the surroundings. This is like what His Majesty the King has seen in his visions.”

Chen Ming’s eyes widened.

“Then, what should we do now Hong? Can’t we stop the disaster? There will be a lot of victims right?” he asked.

Xiao Hong looked around, the location of a roiling volcano in the centre of all the major cities below, would not only destroy Dai Yang, even the borders and beyond.

The city of Bu Mo was deserted by its citizens who already move to other areas, but that does not make everyone safe from the disaster. The volcano’s eruption affected wider than everybody thought was.

.....

Xiao Hong looked at his palm, which had been holding back the heat energy that had sprung up with the rise of Fo Wang’s volcano, he probably wouldn’t be able to hold it in for much longer.

“My Prince, please allow me to do something to prevent the catastrophic caused by those hot clouds and lava from flowing downhill and destroying the surroundings.”

Chen Ming held Xiao Hong’s hand as he was about to release his grip on him, and looked at him with big eyes.

“What do you mean, by doing something to prevent all those hot clouds and lava? What can you do, Hong?”

Xiao Hong held Chen Ming’s hands, cupped them together and smiled seeing the very anxious Young Prince who was looking at him.

“Servant is a firebird, fire is my Nature element, I can control any fire with my strength, it’s my destiny to do that. This might be the reason why I join the group at the first time”

But Chen Ming pulled Xiao Hong’s hand so he wouldn’t let him go. He had a bad feeling that it wasn’t as easy as Xiao Hong said with a smile. He just tries to make him calm.

“That, isn’t a simple thing right, Hong? The fire from Fo Wang’s mountain is not ordinary, it appears from Fo Wang’s energy that should not have appeared for a long time, it is not the Natural fire element, what will happen to you later?” he asked in a slightly trembling voice. Can’t imagine how he felt now.

Xiao Hong looked at Chen Ming who looked at him with teary eyes. Raised his hand to caress Chen Ming’s hair and cheeks. Seeing a pair of beautiful eyes staring at him with a shady look.

“Heh, I promise, I will come back to pick you up here, my Prince. This is what I have to do, Fo Wang’s resurrection will cause a huge disaster that the damage is unimaginable. At least this is what I can do while His Majesty the Realm King and others are trying to subdue Fo Wang.”

Chen Ming held Xiao Hong’s hand tightly until he remembered something. He removed the necklace hanging from his neck and put it into Xiao Hong’s palm.

“Here, hold this Spirit stone, you must promise to return intact to me, this is an order, you heard it Hong”

Xiao Hong smiled, he saw the Spirit stone pendant which was already in his palm, he is a mystical creature, guardian of one of the four corners of the wind. This spirit stone only works on humans, not on him. But he clenched his fists, accepting the spirit stone so that Chen Ming wouldn’t worry too much about him.

“Yes, my prince, I will carry out your orders.”

Chen Ming still held Xiao Hong’s hand, and looked at the young bird’s attractive face for a moment, until he lifted his body, and tiptoed to kiss Xiao Hong’s cheek. Xiao Hong widened his eyes, not expecting Chen Ming to kiss him.

“Promise to come back to me Hong, I will wait for you”

Xiao Hong pulled Chen Ming’s waist to bring his body closer to his, then tilted his head to kiss Chen Ming’s pink lips.

Chup.

Chen Ming let the young bird of large stature hold his body on two tiptoes, kissing him very gently and carefully. Seeing those pairs of pretty brown eyes with long eyelashes flew as butterflies as it blinked. That deep eyes make him drown in the warmest water he ever dives into, what a feeling.

“My prince, I promise to come back to you” hugged Chen Ming tightly taking the Young Prince’s entire body to disappear in his arms.

Both standing on the highest rock on the cliff with the wind and hot air blowing their clothes which blended into one. The explosion began when they kissed.

...

Fo Wang’s volcanic tremors grew out of control. Hot lava flowed down from all sides of the mountain at high speed while the citizens at the foot of the mountain run for their life.

The hot fluid hit the dense trees and crushed them at ease, causing a huge uncontrollable fire. The roar sounded like a giant that pounced all over the place with its fierce mouth.

“Run!”

The residents of the foot of the mountain whose houses were in the lava flow path did not care about everything and ran away as fast as they could. Even forced to leave the cattle that were still in the cage and couldn’t take them all.

Hot lava flows rolled up from the mouth of the cave accompanied by bursts of hot clouds that flew into the distance. It almost hit the houses and some residents who were still trying to escape, until something holding it float and stopped in the air.

A wave of reddish energy gathered all the hot clouds inside the energy bubbles that prevent it from hitting the citizens. Including the hot lava that froze in place.

A tremendous surge of energy emanated from Xiao Hong’s body that floated at the highest position. The young bird flapped its wide wings which gave off a strong pulse of power controlling the fiery element churning around it. His body shone surrounded by a ball of red fire that grew bigger and bigger, pulling all the fire and heat around him.

Xiao Hong’s eyes shone red. His eyeballs are tapered like a fire-red bird’s eye with a shape resembling a bird’s eye. The shrill sound of a firebird could be heard from the energy revolving around his body. Th???? link to the origin of this information r????sts in ꜰire

Chen Ming raised his hand to protect his head from Xiao Hong’s violent burst of energy. He was standing in a higher area where Xiao Hong made sure he was safe before leaving him there.

“Xiao Hong” he clenched his fists tightly, hopefully, the spirit stone he wears around Xiao Hong’s neck can make him safe.

.....

The vortex above Fo Wang volcano rumbled. Chai Ni exerted a boundless outflow of energy from her body.

Luo Xiang was pushed several times after his energy did not even dampen the attacks from the creatures that kept coming.

Some creatures resembling bobcats with sharp fangs and large eyes shining red attacked without stopping. Some even managed to claw at Luo Xiang’s hand. The Crown Prince was overwhelmed, despite how much and strong energy he expended but the relentless attacks of the creatures overwhelmed him.

He tried to aim for Chai Ni who just stood where he was with a black aura that kept roaring out of his body, non-stop. But no matter how he attacks her still couldn’t even hit her which was protected by thick black smokes hands that blew his every attack with great force.

Meanwhile the half-conscious Bai Ying looked around with his tired eyes. He couldn’t move even a bit. The great energy in his body revolve burning a powerful poison that paralyzed his entire body.

“Your Majesty”

He could not remain silent. While the Crown Prince and others already fight with all their might.

His eyes shone red with his heart beat fast, feels the great energy that was not far near him. The turbulent energy he was quite familiar with. It was Xiao Hong’s fire.

“Uh, Hong”
