Chapter 354: Speech
After listening to her words, he shook his head: " She is my wife, of course, I'm going to kill anyone who dares to have bad thoughts about her. " Jayden replied, and it wasn't only for Xiao Rong that he wanted to kill the king, he also wanted Jia to have her revenge.
" Husband "
Xiao mumbled with love filled gaze, after meeting him her goal of becoming stronger had become even more resolute but the reason behind it had completely changed.
" Okay now let's go, that pig will be here any moment. " Jayden reminded, so Xiao reluctantly followed her mother out of the room, she wanted to stay with Jayden but this problem also needed to be dealt with therefore after covering her face with a veil she walked out of the room.
' I should also go out and see how things are going outside now. '
Jayden thought and after a few seconds, he walks towards the area where the participants were gathered.
The seats for them were separated from the rest of the crowd, when Jayden arrived he saw a total of seven men sitting there, waiting to try their luck in the competition, Jayden didn't pay much attention to them and just took his seat.
All of them looked at him for a few seconds before moving their gazes away, most of them didn't recognise him so no one paid him any attention.
" Haa I have been training so hard ever since I saw her for the first time eight years ago, it was love at first sight I believed that if I trained harder than anyone else and became strong enough then I'd be able to marry her, but now it feels like the king have set his eyes on her, what can any of us do? "
A disciple from the Mountain fist sect spoke, he was talking to the other two men from his sect.
There were three disciples from the Iron Giant sect, and the last one from the Divine Sword Sect, all of them were in the high tiers of the Core Formation realm.
Qiang hadn't arrived there yet, or maybe he was just hiding somewhere, just then the king and queen entered the collosium walking beside Lao Rong and a few others, Jayden finally saw the famous pig and he looked worse than the images from his memories.
Because he has been stuck in the same realm for so long and has been using pills to stop himself from looking too old, he has gotten fat and his face looks even uglier than his second son's.
The queen looked old with a mixture of black and white hair, Lao Rong brought them to their seats and sat on one of them, after everyone else took their seats.
After looking at the king and the queen, Jayden looked towards the men who were sitting beside them, they were the first and second princes, the second had covered his face to hide the slap mark while the first was sitting like he was already the king.
The first prince is the best king candidate out of the three brothers, he is talented, kind, virtuous and humble.
Most people like him for these qualities but Jayden was sure that someone that had stayed with that pig could never be innocent.
" I'm sure you all know why we are gathered here, it's a big event since it concerns the future of our sect, in today's competition the number one disciple from the Divine Sword Sect is going to choose her husband, anyone below the Spirit Creation realm can participate. "
Wang Jia said and then paused, she looked over the crowd and then added: " You are allowed to kill your opponent during the battle if the opponent does not surrender, so anyone participating should think twice before going in for the fight. "
Loud murmurs sounded all across the place, everyone was shocked that such a condition was placed in a marriage competition in which even the king was participating.
Wang Jia didn't explain herself any further and took her seat away from the king, Lao Rong stood up and confirmed her words, even the royals were surprised by this news but the king didn't think too much about it after all who would dare to even think of killing him even more so when they are all surrounded by his army of strong cultivators.
" Now let's see what our king and queen have to say about all this arrangement. " Lao Rong said, pointing towards the two sitting figures sending the focus of the crowd on them.
Xing An decided to speak first, a smile appeared on her face as she walked forward and cleared her throat her gaze looked over everyone and stayed a bit longer when her gaze met with Jayden's, who gave an evil smile towards her while using the Void skill.
For some reason Xing An felt goosebumps all over her body, she moved her eyes away from him and then began her speech.
" As you all know my youngest son has been murdered recently and was found dead in his own room and yet we still haven't been able to find the culprit and do you all know what's even worse than that? "
After asking this she paused and again looked at the crowd with a gaze full of sadness and anger, the king smirked it was all going according to their plan he wanted to use this chance to ruin Wang Jia's reputation.
Taking in a long breath she continued: " The worst thing is on the same bed that my poor son died, I... On that very bed, I called three burly guards that same night who fucked my brains out- huh? "
She said the entire thing loud and clearly, her words were even filled with rage since she wanted everyone to feel her pain but now, along with the king everyone stared at her with wide eyes.
" T- That's not what I wanted to say, I- I just wanted to tell everyone that my second son, he isn't the king's actual son but he is the offspring of my own father... "
Xing An wanted to say one thing but another came out of her mouth, she could now feel several anger filled gazes fixed on her, and she knew she had to resolve it or she was going to be in big trouble.
The one most shocked was the second prince himself, who was trying to find different angles to sit in, earlier so that he could hide his face but when he heard those words he fell off the seat.
The murmurs in the collisium were getting Louder no one could believe what the queen was saying, but one thing was for sure that everyone was enjoying the show in front of them.
" N- No that wasn't my meaning, it's just that my husband is too busy forcing other women to sleep with him that I can only find my happiness through the guards and my dead third son- "
When she said this the last string inside Xing Tao's mind broke he stood up and pulled his wife away.
