Reincarnated In A Shitty Love Game

188 chapter 18Xia shot up and slapped him. He drew out a dagger from his ring and placed him threateningly on his neck. “I do not belong to this group, nor will I even sleep with another man. If you still have such thought to pimp me out, then I shall kill you right now,”

The male performer backed away with his hands up. “Okay, okay, I won’t force you. But when the royals come for you, let’s see what kind of attitude you show them,” he humped and walked out.

Xia glanced at the closed door and sighed. ‘If the royal do come here, I will go with them voluntarily. Felia is somewhere inside and if they summon me themselves, I might be able to be venture around and find her.’ he thought as he combed out his long black hair.

Soon the call he anticipated came. The royal guards knocked on the door and an old voice said, “miss, accept the royal decree,”

Xia threw his untangled hair back and strutted out with a sway in his hips. He opened the door and walked out, bowed down to the decree.

“You, young miss what is your name?” the old eunuch whispered softly.

“It’s Xiarilina, sire,” Xia said gently.

“Xiarilina, accept this decree. You shall enter the royal palace and be the emotional comfort for the king.”

Xia stepped forward and took the royal scroll from his hand respectively with his head bowed. His hair cascaded down his face, hiding his frown on his forehead.

.....

When he looked up, he regained his calm disposure. “It’s my honor,” he whispered.

With the scroll in hand, Xia followed along with his head down. Still, his wandering eyes noticing the route they were taking as well as the number of rooms they were passing. In one particular room the guards were all standing stiffly without any movement. ‘Is this the princess’s room? Let me prod.’

“Ahh,” Xia stumbled forward, stepping on his skirt. He knelt down and held onto his knees. The guard watched him fall and stepped forward. “Miss, are you okay?”

“Hmm, I’m okay,” Xia wiped the sweat off his forehead and blinked at him innocently. The guard blushed and helped him up. While doing so, xia looped his hands on his shoulders and subtly placed a small piece of paper inside his armor. “Thank you kind sir,” he whispered and bowed.

The eunuch glanced back and nodded at him. Xia bowed and silently walked behind him. When the guards were not watching, he stuffed in a small piece of paper in his ear. This was actually an eavesdropping spell drawn on two piece of paper. The one he placed on the guard was the listener, and one in his ear is the speaker. He was able to listen to the subtly conversations as well.

The guards were murmuring how beautiful he was and how the guard wanted to marry a woman like him. Xia rolled his eyes and rubbed his ears. ‘Talk about something useful people.’

All of a sudden he heard a soft feminine voice on the other side. It was definitely Felia’s voice asking to let her out. The guards coldly scoffed and did not answer her desperate plea.

Xia bit his lips, holding down his rage. By that time he had already walked over to the royal quarters of the king.

The eunuch brought him over to the small room and knocked, respectively. “Your highness, the little miss is here,” The two golden robed members stood out, glancing at him inquisitively. Xia bowed at them. The golden tribe members scoffed.

Xia sneered as well, hiding his face with his kerchief. He slowly walked in. ‘let’s listen to what this king wants. If he even lays a finger on me, I will knock him out,’ he thought, nodding to himself.

The inside was hidden by a pricey screen right before the door, so Xia walked around it gracefully. The king sat silently on the bed with an unknown expression on his face.

‘Umm, he looks weird.’ Last time at the balcony the king looked weirdly helpless, now he looked like he regained some consciousness. His back straight, he glanced at him without blinking.

Xia walked closer and curtsied gently.

The kind did not respond, rather he glanced behind him and nodded at the eunuch. The eunuch bowed and gestured for the guards to go out with him. And he closed the door behind him.

Xia vigilantly watched the King, brother of Felia. They both did not look alike at all. Felia was more free spirited, but this brother of hers looked too conservative. Even their featured did not look the same as Felia, making him doubt that even if they were real siblings. ‘That’s all palace secrecy..let’s not worry about that.’

He opened his mouth to speak, but the king beat him to it. Farah, the young king, shot up all of a sudden and ran over to him.

Xia firmed his stand ready for his impact but all of a sudden the king jumped and bowed low, placing his head on the ground. “eh!!”

“Oh, Heavenly cultivator…please…please help my sister.” He shouted aloud, banging his head on the ground.

“Ehhhhh!” Xia gaped at him. He was expecting an attack, but he got a flying-jumping-bow? ‘What is this king thinking asking help to a performer? Did he finally lose his marbles?’ he stepped back unconsciously.

The king Farah noticed this and crawled forward and banged his head again. “Heavenly cultivator! Please help my sister. My poor sister is going to be sacrificed to the sun god. I—I don’t want that,” he cried loudly. He as a responsible king was pushed into the circumstances to rely on the golden tribe. At first he thought that they were indeed pure as they claimed, but as time passed, he realized their dark notation. They were after their kingdom and their rich trade port. By then it was too late, the golden tribe members had steeled in. captured a thunder beast and arbitrarily decided to sacrifice his sister. He tried fighting it, but his word swore worthless. Even his own court members did not believe his claims.

“Ehh, your highness I’m just a performer woman,” Xia said awkwardly waving his hands. He really did not want to break his cover in case this was all a ploy by the young king. But Farah was relentless he almost was about to hug his leg but Xia stepped back. “Young king, I’m repeating myself, I’m but a girl,” he firmly said.

“Yes, yes, you gracious, lovely cultivator. This silly man is aware. I would like your gracious help to protect your fellow gender, so please.”

“What makes you so sure that I can help,” Xia lost all cordiality and directly asked.

The king glanced up with tears in his eyes. “Because you made those men into flowers and no one noticed their presence being devoured. It was scary and fascinating at the same time. Please, just make these mad men into lotuses,”

Xia stepped back from the crazy man and glanced back. ‘Is it too late to leave? This man is talking crazy,’ he thought. But there was a small tug on his pant leg. He glanced down to find the tearful king peering at him with his pitiful face. “Fine, I will take care of them, but I’m not sure what that flower thingy you speak of,” he reluctantly agreed and yanked his pant leg out of hands.

“Tell me how many golden robes are here?”

“There are only twenty or so here. The four with me on the balcony were all sky level cultivators. The guard outside are both earth level cultivators. Please make them into a flower, Please,”

“Again I’m not sure about the flower you speak of but I can knock them out easily,” Xia proudly said and pulled out few hypnotic drugs from his waist band.

“But normal drugs won’t work for cultivators?”

“Who said these were normal. They are all handcrafted by me!” Xia proudly said with his nose high up in the sky. Indeed these were not normal drugs all of them were crafted with a little of Long’s blood mixed with them which made it potent for anyone below sky level. ‘My little lover bled for these. I have to make good use of them,’ he thought with a wide smirk.

The king gulped. And whispered, “miss are you sure you didn’t come to assassinate me?”

Xia glanced at him and laughed out loud. “no, I came to rescue Felia. She is my first and most trusted friend.”

“you…you are Xia!! …..a man?”

Xia mysteriously smirked at him and strode forward.

With the king in tow, he walked out the door. They both looked close from a stranger’s perspective as Xia shyly laughed at something the king uttered. The eunuch wiped his sweat away. ‘Your majesty, why are you not thinking about saving your sister rather than falling into a beauty’s lap….. ‘sigh’ what is going to happen to our kingdom if you don’t doo anything,’ he thought dejectedly.
