Chapter 298: Xie's death

" Y- You can't k- kill me. "

Xie said as he slowly moved towards Jayden, acting as if he was just moving away from the guards, but the fear in is his voice was real.

" Sorry, Xie but I'll take all the blame for your death, I'm sorry there is no other choice, I'll ask your family for forgiveness. "

The prophet said and turned his back towards Xie, he didn't want to see him get killed.

Xie was taking slow but deliberate steps towards Jayden and just as he got closer enough to him, Xie jumped towards him and placed his sword on Jayden's neck, as he shouted:

" E- Everyone move a- away from me, or I'm going to s- slash his n- neck, if I saw anyone trying a- anything, I'll immediately slit his t- throat. "

While he said this everyone there looked at him as if looking at a clown because he was holding empty air, and there was nothing under the tip of his blade.

" Haa, I can't believe such a stupid person is being called the brain of the Kingdom, I think he is a lost cause. "

Jayden said, he stood beside Wang Jia looking at him with a smirk.

Coming out of the daze, Xie stared in front of him and couldn't understand what had just happened.

In the next instant, several swords were pointed towards Xie then dropped to the ground and began to beg:

" N- No, please I- I'm sorry, I was wrong, I- I'll go and will n- never come back, p- please- "

But his words were interrupted, as all four guards suddenly charged at him, and before he could utter any more words, several swords pierced his body, within a couple of seconds his eyes became lifeless and he fell to the ground with a thump.

" Great, now you just have to do one more thing that you have promised, I have many informers around here so if you try anything I'll be sure to pay you a visit. "

Jayden said, turning to the prophet.

" Y- Yes sir, I'll do that. "

The prophet said with a deep bow. Jayden nodded in satisfaction and turned his face away.

He looked around hastily and then turned his gaze towards Lao Rong and in an angry tone he asked:

" Where is Xiao Rong? Tell me now! "

Hearing his shout, Lao Rong shivered and acting confused she looked around and spoke:

" S- She was here just now, maybe she... "

Lao Rong tried to think about any kind of excuse then her eyes landed on Qiang who was standing some distance away and was looking at them.

" Oh right, she went with him just now, he is... Qiang yeah, she went to talk to Qiang about something. "

Lao Rong said while pointing her fingers towards Qiang who looked back at her in confusion, he couldn't understand what she was saying.

' Is she introducing me to her husband, or maybe she is telling him about me so that Xiao could marry me? But what if she is complaining to him about me? '

Qiang thought and straightened his back, as he saw Rong Fu walking towards him.

" H- Hello sir, I- I'm Qiang, y- you probably know about me, I am the one y- you engaged your d- daughter to- "

Qiang began to speak, but Rong who had an angry expression on his face wasn't in the mood to listen to anything, getting closer to him he directly asked:

" Where is my daughter? "

Hearing his question, Qiang showed a confused expression and wondered:

' Why is he asking me about Xiao, did he think that she is with me, whatever let's use this chance to ask him about marrying Xiao to me? ' MVLeMpYr-hosted

Qiang thought and instead of answering his question he asked:

" A- Actually, I want to say that Xiao and I are very much i- in love with one a- another, so I want to ask you to let me marry your daught- " Qiang began to confess, but his words got stuck in his throat when he saw the angry expression on Rong Fu's face.
