Chapter 1218.2: One-third
*Crackle!*
Without any foreplay, Su Xiao's hand grabbed onto the sixth princess ' neck and broke it.
The sixth princess ' body gently leaned back in the seat, and the pupils of the remaining four princes and princesses in the meeting room narrowed.
— Iron hand, are you crazy? The third prince's voice was filled with indignation. No matter how crazy the sixth princess was, she was still a member of the royal family.
— Father must have decided to take action, " the first Prince said in a calm tone.
— Father ... " The third prince only said and fell silent, thinking about the current situation.
Such a move by the king meant that the battle for the throne would take place at an accelerated pace.
Su Xiao turned around and walked out of the meeting room. He needed to visit the other princes and princesses as soon as possible.
When Su Xiao reached the door of the meeting room, he stopped. "Congratulations to the four of you on your successful promotion," Su Xiao said as he opened the doors and walked out of the meeting room.
— The corners of the second princess ' mouth twitched. Although she understood what had just happened, she didn't expect the king to actually make such a move.
By this point, all the princes and princesses had arrived in the kingdom's capital, but they didn't live in the palace, but in different parts of the capital.
The King told Iron Hand to do a very simple thing. With the exception of the first Prince, the third Prince, the seventh Prince, and the second princess, the other princes and princesses didn't perform very well in this battle for the throne.
In other words, with the exception of these four people, everyone else had to voluntarily, or not so much, give up this battle for the throne.
The king was truly enraged by the sexual relationship of one prince and one princess. He had even considered having Su Xiao come and eliminate these two people so that no one would have time to find out and cause a scandal in the capital, but this princess wasn't an ordinary person. She was a strong Holy Warrior, so the king had to turn a blind eye to this matter so that the already bad situation wouldn't get completely out of hand right now.

Standing in front of the doors of a luxurious three-story house, Su Xiao knocked on the doors. About two minutes later, a woman wrapped in a blanket opened the door. Except for the blanket, she wasn't wearing anything to hide her body.
— The iron hand?.. The woman asked as she looked Su Xiao up and down with some doubt in her eyes.
— Give up this power struggle, " Su Xiao got straight to the point, for he still had many princes and princesses to visit.
— Did my father say to give me this? the woman asked.
— You could say that.
The princess's lips curled, but after a moment, she asked, " What do I get in return?
She wasn't afraid of the Iron Hand, or at least she didn't see him as a worthy enemy.
— No one will look into the relationship between you and your brother.
The bait thrown by Su Xiao was quite pleasant. Hearing this, the princess reached out and grabbed Su Xiao's shoulder.?
The blanket slid down a bit, revealing a view of her body, but her sudden rush almost made Su Xiao draw his sword and chop off her head.
— Truth.
— Okay, I agree, " the princess replied in a very pleased tone, so pleased that she didn't bother to hide her bare chest.
Everything went more smoothly than expected. Su Xiao turned around and walked towards the next target. The Princess pulled the blanket over her shoulders and looked at Su Xiao's back.
After a moment, she suddenly shouted, " Is the situation that bad? Tell your father that as soon as something happens, I'll be ready to go to the battlefield.
Su Xiao stopped walking, and the princess raised her head, looking at Su Xiao's back. Many princes and princesses understood the difference between momentary power and the continuation of the kingdom's life. For many, obviously, the welfare of the kingdom came first. After all, if something were to happen to the kingdom, they would all end up suffering greatly, if not dying at all.
Iron Hand went around and "interviewed" one king candidate after another. Most of them had the same positions — they were not averse to surrender, but they did not want to lose their fiefdoms in the process.
They were eventually allowed to keep their fiefdoms as a consolation prize for giving up the fight for the throne. The king immediately said that such conditions were quite normal. In any case, all these territories didn't matter right now, right now he needed to think about how humanity would be able to survive the impending catastrophe.
In about 2 hours, Su Xiao "interviewed" a total of 26 princes and princesses. Only 2 of them turned out to be extremely ambitious, so their funerals were already handled by special people.
Su Xiao left the last princess ' house with a smile on his face. Judging from the current situation, his main mission would be completed without much trouble. Although the time spent in this world would be greatly reduced because of this, new quests could be found in the neutral world that could significantly extend the time spent in this world.
If he completed the main task, the burden on his shoulders would be reduced by about a third and he would no longer be restricted to anything in this kingdom's capital. Even if he fell out with the royal family, at worst, they would try to eliminate him.
Even the king feared the power of the Iron Hand. I wonder how surprised or scared he would be if he found out who Su Xiao really was?
