Chapter 168 An Unpleasant Misunderstanding
【Fairyland, Flower Bud Castle】
Huang Shi led Mo Sha to Princess Luo Li's Flower Bud Castle. After Huang Shi presented his visiting card, Mo Sha asked curiously, "Big Stone, whose residence is this? What are we doing here?"
"This is the Flower Bud Castle of the last little princess of the royal family—Princess Luo Li." Huang Shi patiently answered Mo Sha's questions: "It is said that Prince Jin has been in Flower Bud Castle all these years. I have something to do with him."
"Prince Jin? Are he and Princess Luo Li lovers?" Mo Sha asked curiously, her eyes sparkling.
Which girl hasn't heard the fairy tale of the prince and princess?
“Yes, but they’ve been living in seclusion in Flower Bud Castle for many years, and nobody knows their current situation,” Huang Shi said helplessly. “I’m just here to try my luck.”
After all, Huang Shi knew that Shi Xi had been turned away many times before. If it weren't for seeing how pitiful Hua Ling was, he wouldn't have bothered to come here.
Just as Huangshi and Mosha were chatting, the tightly closed Flower Nest Gate suddenly opened, and the Flower Butler's voice came from within Flower Bud Castle:
"Honorable guest, please come in."
Huangshi took the lead and led Mo Sha into Flower Bud Castle.
As soon as she entered the gate, Mo Sha was captivated by the scene before her—vast expanses of blooming pink roses, with countless beautiful butterflies fluttering among them. A man and a woman were standing among the flowers, tending to the plants together. Their equally stunning looks made it hard to tell whether the scenery or the people were more beautiful.
Huang Shi was stunned as he watched Luo Li and Jin Litong whispering to each other as if no one else was around.
Luo Li was still as gentle as he remembered, but Jin Litong, who also had a gentle and calm expression and showed no trace of the crazy war god from before, still shocked Huang Shi.
"I wonder what brings the Stone King here?" It was Luo Li who first noticed Huang Shi and Mo Sha standing outside the sea of flowers.
Feeling that the aura of the barren stone was much weaker than before, and seeing Mo Sha, who was human but possessed magic, Luo Li was filled with doubt for a moment.
However, she and Jin Litong had been out of the public eye for a long time, so they had no intention of meddling in other people's business.
"The reason I'm bothering you is actually because of Ling-mei's matter." Despite his shock, Huang Shi didn't neglect his proper manners.
"What happened to Princess Ling? Is she injured?" Luo Li asked.
In Luo Li's mind, there shouldn't be a stronger healing fairy than her, so her first reaction was whether the Spirit Princess was injured and needed her healing.
"I think I know what it is..." Before Huang Shi could say anything, Jin Litong smiled shyly.
"What have you been doing behind my back?" Luo Li glanced at the person next to her.
"It's nothing, it's just..." Jin Litong confessed guiltily that she had locked Hua Ling up earlier.
Luo Li was quite surprised when she heard about this, after all, her magic was similar to Hua Ling's, and they were both kind people who loved all living beings (especially flowers), so their relationship was quite good.
However, she and Jin Litong had been in seclusion for so long that they had long since become somewhat disconnected from the fairy realm.
Seeing Luo Li's increasingly grim expression, Jin Litong couldn't help but try to excuse herself: "Of course, it was all Mandora's instigation, otherwise... I wouldn't have attacked the Mother of Life."
"I knew it! That's why the princess was always coming to Flower Bud Castle in such a menacing manner during that time." Now is not the time to assign blame. Luo Li glared at Jin Litong, then looked at Huang Shi and Mo Sha, and smiled apologetically: "But Jin was still in seclusion at that time, so I didn't let anyone in."
In order to maintain Jin Litong's sanity, Luo Li, although no longer needing to perform the act of severing her heart due to the contract, still had to help Jin Litong stabilize her state at all times, so she naturally had no time to care about other people's affairs.
As for Jin Litong, he was either overjoyed at the return of his lover or troubled by the metal corroding his heart, having long forgotten that Hua Ling's spiritual heart was still locked away by him.
Huang Shi didn't know what to say. He felt that Shi Xi had been rejected time and time again. It really was just bad timing.
He had even thought that Jin Litong was planning to do something with Hua Ling's spiritual heart.
As a princess of the royal family, Luo Li had a high level of interpersonal skills. Seeing Huang Shi's speechless face, Mo Sha's confusion, and Jin Litong's guilty look, she stepped forward to break the awkward situation: "How about this, Jin and I will go with you to Huahai Chao to see what's going on."
"That's the only way." Huang Shi was no match for Luo Li and Jin Litong, so why wouldn't he be happy to turn hostility into friendship?
