Hail the King
Page 379Chapter 348: Battle on The Peak (4)
Other than these people, the rest were people from the royal family of Zenit and noble families in the Capital.
When the masters from the affiliated kingdoms arrived, they attracted a lot of attention, especially Fei.
Since Fei was the champion of the competition and gained control of the [Wolf Teeth Legion], he was a new political star in Zenit; there were a lot more people trying to figure out the likings and the characteristics of the king. For a moment, all kinds of looks were cast at him including surprised, jealous, intimate, hostile……
The Elder Princess sat on one of the few stone chairs and nodded at Fei with the guard of purple-dressed Ziene.
Ziene who was usually very cold also nodded at Fei to greet him.
“Hehe, Alexander, you are late!” A coquettish giggle sounded, and Paris walked over as she moved her slender and sexy waist. Without hesitation, she put her beautiful and white index finger on Fei’s chest and smiled, “I was just taking with Oka His Highness about you……”
Fei had a headache, and he had to respond to that in a stiff manner.
It seemed like this girl loved to flirt with Fei more and more. She dragged Fei to Dominguez and started talking with them. Dominguez left a good impression in Fei’s mind, and they chatted intimately for a while. Afterward, Fei returned to where the masters from the affiliated kingdoms were at.
However, what happened was misinterpreted by others. Since the king of Chambord walked with Dominguez and Paris intimately, a lot of people thought that he was on the side of the Second Prince for sure.
After thinking about this, a lot of people looked at the Elder Princess.
They knew that the Elder Princess was on the side of the Elder Prince in this battle for the throne.
However, they couldn’t find anything on the Elder Princess’ face as this woman called [Goddess of Intelligence] looked calm. With nobles who favored the Elder Prince by her side, she was sitting on the stone chair with a black fur cover, and she was reading an old book that had more than a thousand pages in it.
However, those nobles around the Elder Princess were looking at Fei with hostility.
As if she sensed something, purple-dressed Ziene frowned and walked up to Fei as everyone looked at her in surprise. After she murmured something into Fei’s ear intimately, she pointed at the Elder Princess who was sitting far away.
Fei didn’t know how he should feel, and he nodded and agreed to her suggestions.
The younger noblemen beside Tanasha were in shock! Ziene’s coldness was known in St. Petersburg; she even rejected the marriage proposal after the Fourth Prince Chrystal brought up to her. “Why is she so close to the king of Chambord?” many people wondered.
Chrystal’s face instantly turned gloomy after he saw this.
……
Time slowly passed by in this strange and subtle atmosphere, and the people who led everyone to the viewing area all disappeared.
However, everyone knew that the Martial Saint Mountain was tightly guarded. Although everything looked calm, if anyone dared to move around without permission, he or she would be in big trouble. Fei actually already sensed all the hidden auras of the powerful warriors around here.
It was close to sunset soon.
From the rumors, the Martial Saint Battle should be taking place. However, both Martial Saints were nowhere to be seen.
Fei had been closely observing the surroundings.
Where everyone was at as an open grass field, and it wasn’t the highest place on this central sword peak. 100 meters away, there was a huge cylinder-shaped stone pillar that was about 100 meters tall and 50 meters in diameter. It soared into the clouds, and it was the tallest place on the Martial Saint Mountain.
If Fei wasn’t wrong, the two Martial Saints were going to battle there.
Where everyone was standing right now was a great spot; people standing here could have a complete view of the battle without worrying about getting injured by the residual forces from the battle.
As Fei continued to observe, he unintendedly turned his head and saw the Fourth Prince Chrystal talking to some other young noblemen. They were laughing and chatting as they pointed at Fei’s direction with disdainful looks on their faces.
Fei shook his head as he didn’t know how to feel about this prince.
After the inception of the [Letter Office], Fei got a better understanding of Zenit. He knew that this Fourth Prince wasn’t willing to be overshadowed by the Elder Prince and the Second Prince and also wanted to fight for the throne. Although he believed he was the choose one, he lacked the talent. He thought he was a child of the gods and the next righteous emperor of Zenit, but he didn’t know that he was like a clown in other people’s eyes.
……
Some of them wanted to use this opportunity to establish friendships with some higher nobles, but they all failed. Except for a few top-tier masters, most of them didn’t even get a response as the higher-up nobles didn’t view them as people on their level.
Fei smiled; he had already predicted this outcome.
At this moment, a series of footsteps sounded. Three masters from the Martial Saint Mountain who were wearing brown robes and carrying swords on their back led a group of more than a dozen people to the area.
Fei saw a few familiar faces; they were the Spartax warriors he encountered during the parade. One of them threw a rock at him, and that warrior’s shoulder got pierced after Fei knocked the rock back. From the look of it, it seemed like this warrior fully recovered; he was moving around with vitality and didn’t look injured at all.
However, it seemed like Martial Saint Lkunta of Spartax wasn’t with them.
“Spartax people are here……”
“They are the people who were with the Martial Saint of Spartax. How dare these bastards to show themselves here?”
“Don’t stop me! Let me kill these damn butchers!”
The people of Zenit got emotional after they saw the appearance of the Spartax warriors. Didn’t matter if it was a nobleman or a master from an affiliated kingdom, they were all angry. At this moment, the citizens of Zenit showed their unity.
However, they were all blocked by the masters of the Martial Saint Mountain.
The atmosphere instantly got intense. However, the warriors of Spartax were still very arrogant and very provoking. The few warriors in the lead said a lot of provoking phrases and laughed recklessly……
Fei lightly frowned.
Elena and Fei were like connected by hearts. She instantly understood Fei’s thoughts and walked over to the Spartax warriors. “King Alexander wants you guys to shut up!” she said to them lightly.
“Yo? A beauty?”
“Hey, beauty, who is that King Alexander? Call him over and let me see.”
“You guys are looking for me?” Fei appeared behind Elena and stopped her from attacking.
“It’s him?”
The warriors of Spartax suddenly froze and shivered. “Is he the person who instantly injured Bother Barton? Damn! Why is he here again?” they thought.
With Fei’s appearance, these warriors of Spartax toned it down and walked away quickly; they didn’t dare to say anything else.
A lot of people saw this, and some masters of affiliated kingdoms were looking at Fei as if he was their idol. Scaring off the enemies with one phrase! That was the aura of the No.1 Master Warrior among all affiliated kingdoms! Even those young noblemen who were looking at Fei with hostility were now looking at him a lot friendlier.
At this moment –
“Look! Quick! It is…… Mr. Martial Saint!”
Someone shouted and pointed in the sky, and everyone followed the direction of his finger and saw two figures standing quietly on the huge stone pillar. It felt like these two had been standing there forever and the people in the view area just didn’t discover them.
The sun was set, and the moon was rising into the sky.
The two Martial Saints were about to battle.
It was close to the evening, and the moon was just on the level of the central sword peak. With the huge moon in the background, the two figures were clearly showcased. It felt like these two people were the gods as their clothes fluttered in the wind as the moonlight shined on them. The whole scene was beautiful.
Martial Saint Lkunta’s body was tall and big like a mountain. He was wearing an ordinary leather armor, and his arms were crossed in front of his chest. As his long hair lightly moved in the wind, he gave off an insane amount of pressure.
On the other side……
Fei was shocked when he saw that figure. His jaw dropped as he couldn’t believe that the Martial Saint Krasic of Zenit was him!
