Chapter 197 – Evil-Warding Items
Teaser

Early the next day, just as the sun rose, a few birds flew through the air and chirped. Another day had come.
Within his room, Zhao Fu was still sitting cross-legged on the bed, and his face was incredibly pale. His body was covered with cold sweat, and soon, he collapsed to the ground in exhaustion.
He had finally finished forming his King’s Seal, and he was both mentally and physically drained. However, to be able to successfully form his King’s Seal, it was worth it.
After resting for a while and regaining his strength, Zhao Fu asked Ge Nia, Tuoba Qing, and Little Sha to come see him.
Very soon, those three people arrived at his room. They went to his side and were quite curious as to why Zhao Fu had called them here.
Zhao Fu explained to them the King’s Guard profession, and after listening, their expressions were all quite different.
Ge Nia’s expression was quite serious and dignified. It was as if what Zhao Fu had explained was what he had been preparing himself for all this time.
Little Sha was only eight years old, and he looked at Zhao Fu in a confused manner. Even though he didn’t understand what was going on, he was happy with being able to stay by Zhao Fu’s side. The fear he felt towards Zhao Fu had quickly become affection after spending time with him.
Tuoba Qing’s face became slightly red, and she looked embarrassed. She was only 17 years old, and becoming a King’s Guard meant that she would spend her life by Zhao Fu’s side. She was very willing to do this, as she greatly wanted to repay Zhao Fu, but she couldn’t understand why she felt so embarrassed about it.“Do you all understand what I’m asking? If you’re not willing, I won’t force you,” Zhao Fu said to the three people in front of him.
The three people nodded, and Little Sha and Tuoba Qing followed Ge Nia’s lead, kneeling down and saying, “I am willing to serve my King!”
Following this, they closed their eyes and slightly raised their heads towards Zhao Fu.
When they all accepted, Zhao Fu took out a dagger and slashed open his palm, causing his blood to slowly flow from the cut.
Zhao Fu raised his palm and pointed it towards them, calling out softly, “King’s Guards!”
The blood flowing from Zhao Fu’s palm turned into three orbs of blood about as big as a fingernail that shot into the three people’s foreheads. After entering, a black symbol appeared on their foreheads – it was a circle formed of nine dragons with the character ‘Qin’ within it. It gave off a mysterious and domineering feeling and was filled with majesty.
After this symbol appeared, it gave off a black light, and their trembled. Following this, the black light brought with it King’s Power as it entered their bodies.
Their bodies started to go through unknown changes, and after a while, the black light gradually grew faint. The black symbol on their foreheads slowly disappeared, and they once again opened their eyes, a black light flashing within them.
