C50 Old Wounds

Every morning, the young man would get up early to practice his sword. When Qing Bai opened the window, he could see the young man dancing with his sword in the courtyard behind the inn. Not far away from him, there were two people standing solemnly with swords in their hands, as if they were on guard.

This scene was extremely funny. Just as the corner of Qing Bai's mouth curled up, he was hugged by Ting Ao who was behind him. Ting Ao placed his chin on Qing Bai's shoulder, and when he saw the youth in the courtyard, he asked, "What are you looking at?"

"No, nothing." Qing Bai also felt that it was strange for him to care so much about a young man he had never seen before. He laughed self-deprecatingly: "That young man is really good-looking. I don't know why I was stunned."

Ting Ao hugged his arm tighter, and his tone was filled with resentment. "What's wrong? Am I not good-looking?"

"Yes, yes."

Why not? His eyebrows were like swords, his eyes were like stars, his nose was straight, and his lips were thin. In the modern world, Ting Ao was a domineering CEO of a foreign land, and countless women would fall for him. However, the youth's beauty was different from Ting Ao's. He clearly looked like a man, but he had a gentle and beautiful aura. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was beautiful. Thinking of this, Qing Bai couldn't help but want to look at him again, but he met the youth's gaze.

Qing Bai was shocked by the young man's straight gaze. He wanted to smile politely, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't laugh. Ting Ao raised his hand, hugged Qing Bai, and suddenly closed the window.

He said in a slightly angry tone, "I'm good looking too! Just look at me."

The last thing the young man saw was the scene of Qing Bai snuggling in Ting Ao's arms and Ting Ao's provocative eyes. He put away his sword and was about to walk back.

Not far away, Bai Ruo, who was leaning against the railing, stood up and said faintly, "Emperor, we agreed on this. You can't go back on your word."

Even if Ling Yu's gaze was terrifyingly dark, he decided to make things clear today: "Before we came, we agreed that if he doesn't find out that the emperor is Ling Yu, we will immediately set off for the Merfolk Sea."

Bai Loong chimed in from the side: "The Emperor has been with him for a hundred years, but in just a month, he treats the Emperor like a stranger. Either he is too slow or he doesn't care about the Emperor at all."

"Stop talking!" The veins in Ling Yu's hand, which was holding the sword, were already bulging. He tried his best to suppress the surging true qi in his body and said in a low voice, "I know what to do. I don't need you to teach me."

"Emperor, do you really know? Yesterday in the hall you whispered to him, and then you put him to sleep. You were too kind to him, knowing that he did not care for you and should remind him again and again, but what about him? He still didn't do anything. He didn't even come to ask you. "

Bai Ruo pressed him closer and closer, and Bai Loong kept winking at him. Seeing that he was talking too much, Bai Loong went forward and pulled on his sleeve, smiling at Ling Yu. "Emperor, we were also worried about you. We all know that he is not the emperor's good man, and the emperor knows his identity. He is destined..."

"Is what I say useless? I told you not to say anything else!" Ling Yu took a few steps back, his entire body trembling, and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. Bai Loong and Bai Ruo immediately went forward to help him up, only to hear him sigh almost inaudibly, "I didn't take him away not because he was destined to be, but because he didn't love me."

Although Ling Yu was a Merfolk Emperor, he had just come of age, and because of something, he had used up too much Spiritual Force. After the battle at the Merfolk Sea, he had already been injured numerous times, and after the platinum treatment, his condition had improved a lot. Today, Bai Ruo and Bai Loong's words made him so angry that he vomited a lot of blood. The two of them blamed themselves and said to Bai Jin, "We didn't say these words on purpose to anger the Emperor. It's just that the Merfolk Sea is not stable yet, and there are still demonic Devil Beasts eyeing us covetously. However, the Emperor's heart is only filled with that Taoist Priest Qing, we..."

Bai Jin was still giving Ling Yu acupuncture treatment. Seeing that Ling Yu was about to wake up, she quickly signaled them with her eyes to stop talking. However, the two of them did not notice it at all and continued to say, "Historically, only female Merfolk who covet beauty... will... If it wasn't for that Taoist Priest Qing, how could the Emperor's injuries be so serious?"

Ling Yu held Platinum's hand, which was in the middle of inserting the needle, so hard that Platinum almost cried out in pain.

These two idiots! They had no eyesight at all!

Bai Loong and Bai Ruo were still shouting when they suddenly heard Ling Yu say, "I don't need followers who tell me what to do. If you don't like me, you don't have to follow me anymore. If you still want to follow me, then both of you can go out and get twenty slaps."

"Remember, I didn't keep you here to tell me what to do."

Bai Jin wanted to plead for them, but Ling Yu held his hand and let go. His wrist had already turned purple, so he tactfully didn't say anything.

Ling Yu closed his eyes and waved his hand. "All of you, leave. The rest of you, take your plates. I will inform you when we leave for the Merfolk Sea."

Everyone looked at each other and walked out of the door in silence. They found a quiet place to discuss matters and take their plates.

"That's great. The rest of us will get the board with you." Bai Jin sighed and said, "The two of you were there during the battle at Merfolk Sea. Don't you know what kind of person the Emperor is? If the Emperor could change his mind after listening to a few words from you, would we have to do this? "

Bai Loong stuck out his tongue: "You also know that the Emperor did something wrong. You know how chaotic the Merfolk Sea is now. Aren't you anxious?"

Bai Jin touched her nose awkwardly. "How can I not be anxious? Ever since I found out that the Emperor's injuries weren't caused by the battle of the Merfolk Sea, I didn't have a good impression of him."

They all knew what Ling Yu had done for that person. When Platinum spoke, everyone fell silent. The Merfolk Sea was just a temporary peace, and if the remaining evil were not eliminated, it would be difficult to stabilize its foundation. Furthermore, there were traitors of the non-humans who were both internal and external. If someone found out about Ling Yu's current situation, it would be a disaster for the entire Merfolk.

Platinum had seen Ling Yu's wound before. It was very deep, and there was a long gash on his chest that almost touched his heart. During the battle, no one noticed his abnormality, and only after he led the Merfolk to victory did everyone realize that blood had already soaked his battle robe.

Ling Yu laughed, and asked Platinum: "Why are you crying? Is the wound very deep? Your medical skills are so good. If you don't help me take a look, is the heart in the wound far away? I wonder if the blood in my heart will hurt more than now?"

No one present could forget Ling Yu's appearance at that time. They wanted to laugh, but at the same time, they also wanted to cry.

It was just that people who were loved by the emperor were very rare, and they couldn't be controlled.

Bai Ruo hesitated for a while, then said, "It's not a good idea for the Emperor to stay here for a long time. Why don't we call that person over?"
