Chapter 2336 - Sick Beauty (1/2)
If a prince didn’t even have the blessing from the Kingese on the king tree, people would believe him to be very unfortunate. They would think the prince was plagued by bad luck. Such a person could never lead the Extreme King and rule the known world.
Although the protection of the Kingese didn’t accurately represent the luck of a prince, it still affected the way they were perceived by others. Thus, the royal children wouldn’t seek the protection of the Kingese on a random whim.
In the era of King Bao’s reign, there was a much-loved prince. He was very intelligent and a sublime fighter. King Bao was extremely fond of him, and many nobles believed that the prince would be the one to take the throne and succeed King Bao.
Even the prince himself believed he would be the one. He thought he was a man that was blessed with great fortune and luck. So, he went to King’s Cover to test the mettle of his beliefs. But he did not get the Kingese. After that transpired, King Bao’s love turned sour. He didn’t allow the prince to succeed him, and instead passed the mantle onto the man now known as King Bai.
The prince didn’t lose the throne solely due to the lack of Kingese protection, but it was one of the primary factors involved.
Similar things transpired in every era of the Extreme King, just to varying degrees.
The royal children that wanted to take the throne wouldn’t dare risk being rejected by the King’s Cover; it was the royal children that were not ambitious that were more willing to try. A rejection wouldn’t affect them as much.
A royal child who got the blessing of five Kingese would be deemed a lucky person. Getting the blessing of nine Kingese meant a person was super lucky. Getting more than nine was something most kingly, and it was also absurdly rare.
But even getting the protection of more than nine Kingese didn’t guarantee a chance at the throne. So, the Kingese’s protection didn’t mean everything.
Luckily, the Kingese itself was useful. It was good to have, so the more the better.
Bai Qing Xia moved like a cloud, coming for Han Sen.
Han Sen grunted in annoyance. After he used the Extreme King’s Shocking Sky Punch to counter Bai Qing Xia’s palm, the fight continued.
Because they were too close to the king tree, the last thing they wanted to do was hurt it, so they held their powers and fought with raw strength.
“Huh? Prince Qing Xia has great palm skills. That must be King Seventh’s Hatred Times Ten.” A Prince blurted as he looked at Bai Qing Xia.
“It really is Hatred Times Ten. Times One is one area, while Times Ten is half-deified. I cannot believe Bai Qing Xia learned this. He just became King class, did he not? He only has Times One area power. His Hatred Times Ten is only at its first tier,” another prince commented.
“But Bai Qing Xia is weak. It is surprising that he is able to learn such a powerful geno art at all,” another prince remarked.
Bai Ling Shuang watched Bai Qing Xia and frowned. “Bai Qing Xia hid his abilities this well? It looks as if he has come here to seek out the protection of King’s Cover. That is an unusual choice. We have clearly been underestimating him. His heart must be far more complicated than most of the princes that can harness strong power.”
Miss Mirror saw Bai Qing Xia’s Hatred Times Ten and looked on with interest. She said, “This pretty prince has practiced Hatred Times Ten. And on top of that, it isn’t just at the first tier. This is really interesting.”
After pausing, Miss Mirror laughed and said, “Good! Let’s see how he does against Han Sen.”
Han Sen used his Extreme King Shocking Sky Punch to fight against Bai Qing Xia. Han Sen was surprised as they fought. That pretty man’s fighting power far exceeded his expectations.
