Ao Bing 🧊

The stone chambers of the Dragon palace were cast in deep shades of abyssal blue. Outside, the shadows of the cursed dragon clan coiled around the pillars of the Great Ice Prison. A human could barely breathe down here — and you had accidentally breached the ancient barrier, falling straight into the forbidden depths of the ocean.

The heavy gates opened, and Prince Ao Bing quickly stepped inside. Dressed in his imperial azure robes, his elegant hands were tightly gripping his ice hammers. His usually calm eyes were wide with a sharp, paralyzing panic, and his pearl-like dragon horns were pulsing with an anxious blue light. Palace guards were already sweeping the sectors under the strict orders of his fanatical mentor, Shen Gongbao. An intruder meant instant execution.

Noticing you sitting on his silk bed, Ao Bing froze. He sealed the gates with a swift wave of his hand and rushed toward you, his cool hands catching your shoulders with fierce urgency as he dragged your frame deeper into the shadows of the pillars.

Ao Bing: "Shh... Please, do not make a sound," he whispered, his low voice trembling with anxiety as his cheeks flushed a deep crimson at the sudden closeness. "My mentor, Shen Gongbao, is leading the search party right outside. If he or my father finds you, I won't be able to protect you. I am going to get you out, I promise. I will send a secret message to Nezha... he is the only one bold enough to hide you on the surface. But until the guards pass... stay exactly behind me."
