Chapter 336: Grotesque
The king was in a bad mood after receiving the news from his envoy, originally he was just planning to put some pressure on the Rong family to make them give up, but in the end, Jayden ruined it all, he have recived the details that their plan failed right after Jayden appeared there.
*CRASH* *BANG*
" Damn it, I am going to kill that bastard, first he killed Xie and now he ruined my plan. " The king cursed as he threw a glass on the window, shattering it instantly.
*BANG*
Just as he was about to destroy something else the doors to his room flung open, as one of his personal guards ran into the room, the king was startled at the sudden interruption. Then anger filled him:
" How dare you? Where do you think this is- "
But just as he was about to go berserk and punish him, the guard spoke hastily:
" Y- Your majesty, please come with me, you have to see this. "
Hearing the guard's tone, Xing Tao felt that it must be an urgent matter so he calmed his anger and followed behind the guard, soon they arrived at the boundary of the castle and what he saw there froze the king to the core, he felt shivers across his entire body.
There were twenty big bamboos that were penetrating the stony floor, reaching over five meters high, and at the top of each of them was a severed head, the eyes of all the heads were still open, and there were only the expressions of dread and despair on their faces.
*TIP* *TIP*
Blood was still dripping from their eyes, ears and mouths of all the men.
The sticks and floor were painted red by the blood, and pieces of their bodies were thrown all over the place, creating a grotesque scene just outside the castle.
" Th- These are... " Xing Tao couldn't form any words, his legs were shaking by the scene in front of him, someone came and did all this in the open, without letting any of them know about it just this thought shook the king, in a long time he felt fear for his life even when Rong Fu had exploded in front of him he didn't felt this afraid.
" T- These are the bandits we h- hired to kidnap some test subjects a- and also kill some c- commoners " the guard said, his voice was quivering as he hastily went near the king to stop him from falling on the ground.
Within minutes, a large crowd gathered there and everyone who saw the scene was terrified, Xing Tao immediately ordered his guards to remove all the bamboos while asking the guards on duty if they sensed anyone there.
But no matter how he tried to investigate, no result came out of it, so in the end he decided something: ' I have to keep some Peak rank cultivators by my side all the time. ' and he did the same for the upcoming months, he would keep few of the cultivators in Spirit Strengthening Realm by his side, even while sleeping or bathing.

Xiao went through all the memories again after listening to Jayden's answer, the surprise on her face kept getting bigger, and at last, she closed her eyes and sat on her seat, sorting her thoughts.
Jayden waited patiently, he knew all the things he had just shown to her were going to completely change her view, there were many things that should have been impossible.
More than twenty minutes passed in complete silence, and then she finally opened her eyes, her face was emotionless so Jayden couldn't guess what she was thinking, she stared at his face for a few seconds, then she stood up and walked in front of him.
She stopped just in front of Jayden and spoke: " Thanks for telling me everything, but... "
Jayden tilted his head slightly looking at her with questioning gaze, and waited for her to continue.
" But, I believe we should change our relationship, and you can't say no now. " She said and then under Jayden's confused gaze she sat on his lap and directly bit his neck lightly.
" Your turn. " Xiao said after leaving a mark on his skin.
" Aren't you surprised? " Jayden asked, looking into her eyes.
" Of course I am, it all seems so impossible another world, those quests, vampire thingy, and so many things, but those things change nothing, I love you, I want you and you only even if I have to become something inhumane for that. " Xiao said her gaze filled with immense love, Jayden could feel her determination just by the look in her eyes.
Caressing her cheek, he spoke: " Are you sure you want to become a vampire? This is the last chance for you to retreat, there will be no going back after this, though I'm not going to let you go even if you want. "
As he spoke, he loosened her robe exposing her white flawless neck and shoulder, her scent drifted into his nose making Jayden feel excited.
Xiao stared at his face and was slightly surprised when his eyes turned red and fangs grew into his mouth, she observed as he brought his lips closer to her neck, she knew that he was going to bite her neck, so she closed her eyes waiting for the pain to come.
" Ahhhhh~ "
A moan came out of her mouth when instead of pain a wave of pleasure hit her, Jayden began to suck her blood and released the poison into her blood.
Xiao was already feeling strange when he sucked her neck, then suddenly her body began to turn hot, it was affecting every part of her body even her mind.
Xiao felt as if she was forming a connection with Jayden and with each passing second, that connection became stronger, her eyes became hazy for a moment and in the next instant her pupils became red, after which she felt many changes occurring in her body, then fangs grew in her mouth.
She felt thirsty, and the smell coming from Jayden pulled her face automatically towards his neck, she pulled his clothes down and then bit his neck, pushing her fangs into his skin.
*GULP* *GULP*
Blood filled her mouth, her body quivered when it touched her tongue it was much more tastier than anything she had ever eaten, as the warm fluid travelled down her throat, she instantly felt it nourishing her body, his blood was allowing her body to change completely.
Jayden had his eyes closed as he drank her tasty blood, the blood of all his wives tasted different, for a moment he lost himself in the alluring taste, as his tense body and mind relaxed a little, her sweet scent played a big role in it.
His hands coiled around her soft body squeezing her in his embrace, while he kept drinking her blood the more he drank the hungrier he felt, similar was the case with Xiao Rong, Jayden's blood quality was top notch which has improved even more because of the Life potion.
