The Legend of Min Hong

Chapter 408: Beauty Is A Burden



Chapter 408: Beauty Is A Burden

Princess Cui came out next, and the moment Min Hong saw her, he looked away in nonchalance, something that began to ruin her day right off the bat

Then everyone gathered together, and noticed there was still someone missing, but they didn't have to wait too long as Ki Ting came out looking radiant and lively for some strange reasons, as she skipped over and hugged Min Hong

Everyone including Min Hong was stunned, but the Princess was the first to recover with a cold snort;

"You are looking so lively today Ki Ting What happened?" Xiao Gui asked;

"Oh, Fei Hong was a gentle man all through the night"

Ki Ting blurted with a beaming smile, whilst the princess snorted once again with her face getting furious and blushed already, seemingly out of pure jealousy

"Oh really?" Gong Yi asked, seemingly surprised by the entire situation

"Yes I went to his room pretty drunk last night, and seduced him, but he simply put me to sleep and left the entire room to me without touching me in the slightest"

Ki Ting blurted whilst still hugging Min Hong's right arm, looking like an adorably spoilt girl who had just found love

Princess Cui at this point had a stunned look on her face, as she was trying to register what she had just heard into her brain, as she looked over to Min Hong who was facing everyone else with an awkward smile whilst scratching his head;

"I hope this doesn't paint me as impotent to everyone"

"Oi, Fei Hong!"

Rin Chen suddenly bellowed and approached Min Hong from, and just as everyone was expecting a fight or something, Rin Chen dramatically dropped to his knees as he began to shed comical tears;

"Venerable, Elder Hong, would you please bestow the young mortal with the techniques with which you attract ladies!?"

He grabbed Min Hong by the elm of the short he was currently wearing, stunning everyone, except the Trio who knew him too well and his ways

"Hmph! Hateful fellow!"

Su San snorted as she gave Rin Chen who had an upturned ass [because he was still bowing to Min Hong] a vicious kick in the butt, sending him flying, as everyone saw Rin Chen fly across the table and plunge his face into the ass of the wild boar Su San had prepared as everyone's breakfast;

"If you need to lick anyone's butt, Lick That!" Su San said as she pouted her lips in fury

Then she flicked her wrist and brought out a massive frying pan before approaching Rin Chen;

"You have defiled this beef with your lecherous intent, and you will be joining me as I roast another one!"

She said as she threw the frying pan in her hands up and caught it three times, giving Rin Chen the idea that should he even breathe wrongly today, he might be having several red tattoos of a frying pan all over his body

A shiver ran through Rin Chen's spine, as he nodded his head like an obedient dog;

"Good Because you are skinning the next boar!"

"Yes ma'am!"

Rin Chen stood in salute as he marched to the other end of the ship where the food is being made

Everyone laughed at the scene, something which lifted their mood whilst Ki Ting still held on to Min Hong's arm and sat beside him, with the sulky, and guilty Princess Cui on the other side of Min Hong

"Thanks a lot for not taking advantage of me"

Ki Ting once again thanked Min Hong silently, but Princess Cui still heard it, after all, she was a Saint Stage expert

"It's alright, I hope you do the same for me, if I ever fall into such situations"

Min Hong replied and grabbed another fruit before taking a bite out of it, and offering a bite to Ki Ting which she merrily chomped on, as Princess Cui who was sulking by the side finally couldn't bear sitting beside Min Hong who served as a constant reminder of what she had done the previous night, as she stood up;

"I will go help out and rearrange the table"

She said with a quaky tone as she quickly stole a glance at Min Hong who was busy munching the fruits in his hands, and then she turned around and moved sluggishly over to the table as tears began to stream down her face, then she rushed out of the area;

"Fei Hong, what's wrong with the princess?"

Gong Yi who noticed every single detail asked openly once Princess Cui left as everyone look towards Min Hong, he was the only one who didn't join them yesterday, and they have yet to find out what was going on with him, or any of his embarrassing secrets 

Min Hong could sense everyone's gaze, as well as the clingy Ki Ting, and decided he might as well share a little with them to prove he would not just say things but also do them;

"She saw Ki Ting in my room last night as I tried to step outside, and thought we actually made out, and then she broke my nose out of anger"

"Perhaps, Ki Ting shedding light on the situation at this point is making her beat herself up"

Min Hong spoke with an helpless, but nonchalant tone and sigh, as he decided to continue eating, but then, a barrier appeared between the spirit fruit and his mouth, and he opened his eyes to see Ki Ting's hand blocking the fruit from entering his mouth;

"You should try to console her" Ki Ting spoke from the side;

"Console? I was the one who was left bleeding last night"

Min Hong protested like a dunce who knew nothing about women, even though he had gone down on five different ladies so far

"That's the way we ladies are" Pi Xi added;

"Look"

Then she pointed towards the other side of the ship, where Su San and Rin Chen were already smiling at each other and even feeding themselves, the beef they had decided was not hygienic for the entire group to eat from

"Some call it insecurities, others call it jealousy, but all these things only happen when a girl is in love with a guy" Ki Ting added from the sides;

"Love?"

Min Hong blurted with an incredulous expression;

"If that is how people profess love, then I don't want to be loved"

He said as he reclined into his seat;

"Take a look at Ki Ting, this is the way couples should be"

Min Hong blurted absentmindedly as Ki Ting's face almost exploded into a fountain of blood and gore;

"Look at you guys"

Min Hong also pointed to Pi Xi and Tong Tian, but when he saw the seemingly exhausted expression on Tong Tian's face, he knew there must be something else going on, but he was not ready to apologize for suffering violence

"Please, do it for me"

Ki Ting leaned in and gave Min Hong a peck on the cheek before adding;

"Otherwise I might feel guilty and bad about it, throughout this entire journey"

She added with another peck, as Min Hong finally sighed, stood up, and turned to leave, before turning around once again and picked two different fruits in each hand, before walking into the lower deck, where the princes had just disappeared into

"This is why I prefer to remain single"

Xiao Gui spoke with an awkward laughter as the rest of the group went quiet, and the breakfast they were supposed to share together was pushed further into the day

Min Hong walked down the stairs with an angry expression, but after remembering what Ki Ting had said, he sighed helplessly in defeat and walked towards the Princess' room, and knocked

He heard some scrambling and sniffing within the room before he heard a quaky voice ask;

"Who is it?"

Hu!

Min Hong gave another sigh before answering;

"It's me, Fei Hong, can I come in for a bit?"

Min Hong didn't know why, but he sounded like he had just used the same sentence the princess used the day before

Kacha!

An unlocking sound echoed as the door opened slightly, as Min Hong gave another sigh, before entering and getting the shock of his life

In here, was not only pretty, or comfy or luxurious, it was also spacious, as Min Hong began to wonder how someone could fit so much decorations and other stuffs in such a little room, only to end up having more space then when the room was empty

Furthermore, everything was so neatly arranged, he had to send his Spirit Sense into every nook and cranny of the ship looking for a stow away, because he never believed a Princess with the attitude of the lady in front of him, could know how to take care a room to this extent, especially with the way everything was arranged

After looking around for a while in amazement, his gaze finally landed on the princess who had red eyes that were already swollen from tears, and despite the fact that only little time had passed, Min Hong realized that her tears must had been heavy within such a short period of time for her eyes to get this swollen, thus he drooped his head and helplessly shook it with a sigh;

"Why does things have to be like this?" He asked looking at the curled up princess;

"May I?"

He asked pointing to her bed with the intention of taking a seat since there were no seats within the room, and the princess nodded her head in accent whilst trying to avoid eye contact with Min Hong

Min Hong took a seat and asked;

"Tell me, what it is you want precisely?"

"There is no point in saying it, since it is already as impossible as finding phoenix feathers and Qilin horns"

The princess finally spoke as Min Hong nodded towards her;

"I will tell you what is and what isn't impossible So let us hear it"

Min Hong with the intent of smoothing out the situation decided to make a compromise;

"I want you all to myself!"

The princess finally blurted as Min Hong simply let go of himself as he fell on her bed with his face starring at the ceiling before muttering;

"Damn it Beauty is truly a heavy burden"
