The expressions of the bald man turned strange, as he looked at the beautiful Xiao sitting on the chair there.
Xiao Rong couldn't believe her ears, wasn't the Buddhist sect said to be righteous and people who fight against the evil, the people who protect the weak, just from his eyes Xiao could see what kind of intention he had towards her, she felt disgusted and afraid, she turned her gaze towards her father who had his eyes closed in contemplation, she felt devastated when she saw her father actually considering that deal.
' To him, I am just an asset he can use when ever he wants, and for whatever purpose, he first decided to sell me to the king and now he is trying to use me to gain even more power, I wish I was just a normal girl, with normal appearance and a happy family, Jin, what should I do? Sorry mother, but I'm going to take my life so that I can escape this hell, please forgive me for leaving you alone. '
Xiao Rong thought, as her determination solidified, she checked her storage ring and saw a knife present inside it, so she decided to use it as her last resort.
" No I can't do that, the king is going to marry her soon so if he finds anything strange, I'll be the first to die by his hands, so if you have no other ways I think we can't become partners, but don't worry I am not going to tell anyone about your thoughts, you could believe me on that. "

Rong Fu said, in a resolute voice after thinking about it for a few minutes.
The patriarch just smiled and spoke:
" Haha no need to come to a decision so fast, I'm not asking for her to become my disciple just now, but she can once we have dealt with the king, in the mean time she can play her role as the gracious queen and also meet me secretly.
You could allow that much right, think properly before making any rash decision. "
The patriarch spoke while staring at Xiao who just clenched her fists, if not for the difference in their strength she would have stabbed him to death but with so many strong people around she knew the only choice she had was to die a peaceful death, with the happy memories of her beloved.

Jayden climbed onto the stairs, his emotions were becoming unstable by the second, but he controlled himself remembering Anna's words.
When Lao Rong felt the aura surrounding Jayden, she looked at him in shock, it was the same aura that she had once felt before, it was suffocating but the aura seemed to have gotten a lot stronger now.
Jayden was trying his best not to let his rage out, moving his gaze away from Lao Rong he slowly walked towards the window, just after taking a couple of steps he disappeared from Lao Rong's view, she stood there, putting all her hopes on him, and praying that he could save her daughter.
Jayden stood above the house, as he looked in the direction of the Buddhist sect, from Lao Rong's memories Jayden knew just where he needed to go.
" Anna, count them all. "
Jayden said and disappeared from his position. Anna observed everything with a solemn gaze, she knew what he wanted her to do, maybe it was a way for Jayden to keep himself from losing control.

Outside the Buddhist sect's gate, over five people stood as guards, they were all still talking about the arrival of Rong Fu and his beautiful daughter.
" Haa, for some reason I don't want to see my wife's face today, how could God be so unfair, can't he have made my wife a little more like Xiao R- "
just as they were chatting among themselves, their attention was pulled away by a figure in a purple robe that suddenly appeared in out of nowhere, at first they were all surprised to see such a handsome man in front of them, but composing themselves, one of them spoke:
" What purpose do you have to approach the Buddhist sect? "
Jayden just stood there silently, watching the place behind them, he scanned the entire sect and found Xiao Rong in one of the rooms.
