Chapter 355: A Joke?

The king pulled Xing An away and before going to their seat he said to the entire crowd:

" Haha, She doesn't know the right place to start joking, anyway let's not delay the event and start with the competition. "

The king wanted to just throw everything away by turning all that speech into a joke, but no one in the audience found that funny and just stared towards the queen with wide eyes.

After dragging her away from the others, Xing Tao shouted:

" What do you think you were doing there? I have tolerated everything you do because you are the mother of my sons, but don't test my limits, pull such a stunt again and I won't hesitate to kill you myself. "

After saying that he forced a smile on his face and then patted her shoulder as he spoke: " Everyone is looking make it all appear as a simple joke, smile now. "

Saying that he went back to his own seat, while there was a smile on his face as he tried to make everyone believe that it was all a joke.

Xing An didn't know what happened to her, the things she had just spoken there had some truth in them but mostly they were false but because of that one truth she couldn't deny anything, composing herself she put on a smile on her face and walks back to her seat.

" Don't mind me, I guess I went a bit overboard with my jokes this time. "

After she said these words she instantly shut her mouth in fear of saying something wrong again. When everyone had taken their place, a woman in her forties stood at the fighting stage and began to announce:

" I'll be the host for today's event, now I have a news to share with everyone, after the announcement of death matches some of the participants have decided to withdraw, therefore now we only have six participants left.

Two from the Divine Sword sect, two from the Iron Giant sect and only one from the Mountain Fist sect. And our king is also going to participate in today's competition, but before that let's call the most important person for whom this competition is taking place, Xiao Rong. "

Everyone looked around to search for the beautiful girl, and then Xiao Rong entered the ground at the centre of the collisium, wearing a veil over her face and a beautiful purple dress, after becoming a vampire she have become even more beautiful so as to not attract any trouble she decided to wear the veil.

Jayden was sure if the people there saw her face now the number of contestants would increase immediately, after looking over the crowd and glancing at Jayden, Xiao spoke:

" Even though there is no need to carry on this competition since I already know who is going to win... "

The crowd excitedly waited for her next words when she suddenly went silent, then she spoke: "The person who win would definitely be my husband, still let's start this competition. "

Xiao said as a beautiful smile appeared on her face behind the veil, the entire crowd didn't understand the meaning behind her words but Jayden also smiled, after all, she was referring to him while the crowd thought she was speaking about whoever will win the competition.

" Let's start the battles, since killing is allowed we have placed arrays to protect all the visitors, so no one needs to worry about their safety. "

Xiao said and walks away from the centre and soon sat on a seat beside her mother and Wang Jia, away from the people from the castle.

" Now now, let's carry on this excitement, and start our first battle... " The announcer stopped before saying the names of the first two contestants, making all the people anticipate her next words.

" The first is our king and Qiang from the Divine Sword sect. " Everyone roared in excitement, even the first match was going to be very exciting. After nodding to the people beside him, Xing Tao jumped towards the centre of the ground and then waited for Qiang to come, with his hands behind his back.

"..."

Everyone looked around, but no one could spot the genius of the Divine Sword sect, just when the announcer was about to disqualify him, Qiang came onto the stage and shouted:

" I, Qiang, am here to fight for the right to marry Xiao. "

His shout reverberated in the entire place, creating a silence for a few seconds then the crowd erupted with loud cheers, some were supporting Qiang while most were on the king's side, even bets were being made but Jayden didn't do it this time since he already have more than enough money.

" Haha, it has been so long since I last saw you, your grandfather was a good friend of mine it hurt me deeply when I saw his body in such a state so worry not I'm going to avenge him at any co- "

The king began to speak, making his image better in everyone's eyes, but Qiang interrupted him and lunged forward, as a silver sword appeared in his hand, he made a vertical slash aiming directly at the head of the king.

*CLANG*

" Hmph "

Seeing his action the king just harrumphed and waved the sleeve of his right arm, when the clothes came in contact with the sword, sparks were produced and Qiang was propelled backwards.

" I know you were a genius but that was before you suffered this injury, now you can't even take one attack from me, so as someone who is like a father to you I advise you to admit defeat. "

The king said acting gracious, his tall height towered over Qiang's pale face.

" Hah! " Qiang didn't stop and charged forward again, this time he thrust his sword forward aiming to pierce the king's throat.

" You are like a mad beast. "

Xing Tao shook his head and took out his own sword, it was golden in colour and was covered with many gems making it a bit more heavy, but it fit him perfectly because he is the strength type cultivator.

*CLANG*

The swords clashed again, but this time Xing Tao broke Qiang's sword in two, he didn't want to appear heartless in front of everyone so he was letting Qiang off easily, but he kept charging forward not even thinking about the injuries his body was sustaining.

Whenever he got closer, the king would inflict small cuts to his body, but Qiang would just run towards him again.

" I'm not going to let an evil bastard like you marry my Xiao." Qiang roared and launched another punch towards the face of the king.

" Haa you are forcing me to do this, sorry my friend it seems like there is no other way. " Xing Tao spoke referring to the dead third elder as friend and just when Qiang's arm was about to touch him he cut it off with a swift motion.

*SLASH*

*THUD*

" Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah nooooo "

A painful scream resounded on the battlefield when Qiang's arm was cut from the shoulder and blood poured out of it.
