BXBX NOVEL Chapter 291: The trial
The third man shook his head and spoke:
" Haven't you heard that Chang Ho had died and everyone believes that matriarch Wang Jia is the one who had killed him so I think he is here on the order of the king to capture and punish her. "
The fourth man whispered as he looked around carefully, as if he was about to tell something big.
"This is a secret I had heard, it seems that the third Prince was found dead some time ago in his room, and they believe that the matriarch is the one to kill him maybe they all are here because of that. "
Everyone was surprised, by hearing his words they couldn't believe that a prince was killed inside the castle, whether or not Wang Jia had done it, now she is definitely in trouble.
The crowd kept discussing it among themselves, and after a few moments, Xie continued:
" Today all of us have gathered here to find out about all the atrocities the respectful Matriarch of the Divine Sword sect, Wang Jia have committed.
From this point on, I'll show everyone present here just how vile your sect Matriarch is, behind that beautiful face she is carrying a demon inside of her. "
These words brought out even bigger commotion among the crowd, they couldn't understand whether to believe him or not, as they waited for his next words to come.
Jayden, who was standing along with Wang Jia, chuckled as he listened to his gibberish, he squeezed her hand lightly and spoke:
" Haha He had prepared quite a speech, I wonder what he had planned to make us fall into his trap? "
Jayden said, pretending that he wasn't aware of what Xie is going to do.
Wang Jia smiled and asks: " But what plan do you have to deal with him?"
Jayden just shrugged and replied: " Just wait for a bit longer, you will know everything. "
The crowd's murmur became louder, as they discussed the weightage of Xie's words, after giving a little time for his words to sink in, Xie spoke again:
" For this purpose, I have called here the Godly Prophet, or you must also know him by the name of The Fortune Teller, he is one of the most respectful man in this Kingdom, so I believe no one will have any problem with whatever his judgement is, right? "
As he spoke, his gaze turned towards Wang Jia, who was looking at all this with an expression of indifference.
While all this was going on, Rong Fu along with his wife, daughter and one minister also joined the crowd, then he briefed both the women as to why so many people were gathered there.
Xiao Rong saw Jayden at the centre of the ground and felt worried, she had forgotten about her own problem, as she felt afraid that something might happen to Jayden.
Rong Fu noticed the gaze of his daughter, he had heard some news about her getting too close to a boy named Wang Jin since he always kept tabs on his wife and daughter, but now he won't have to be worried since Jayden would soon be killed, and that would help to break down Xiao Rong's mental defence, thinking this Rong Fu didn't disturb her and just observed everything with delight.
Everyone has heard the name of the Godly Prophet, he possesses high spiritual energy that allows him to do things that others could never, he has even performed divinations but that consumes a lot of energy so he could only do that one time in a year, but whatever the Godly Prophet say, no one could ever question his words.
" Of course, we believe that the famous, Fortune Teller wouldn't stoop so low as to spout lies just to capture us, so we will believe in his judgement. "
Jayden was the one who answered, seeing this Xie felt annoyed then he looked at Wang Jia and asks:
" Are you satisfied with this too? "
In response, Wang Jia just nodded, and then a big smile appeared on Xie's face, as he felt that victory was just in his hands.
" The trial is going to be very simple, one of the abilities of the Godly Prophet is very popular, it is the ability to check whether the person in front of him is lying or not, we will use this method to check whether or not Wang Jia is guilty. "
Xie shouted, no matter what the end result turns out to be, the crowd felt excited, as they observed everything.
The Godly Prophet is an old man in his eighties, though he doesn't look that old, he is one of the elders who is working for the king and has accompanied Xie to the sect ground.
Any talented or powerful individual or those with special abilities easily caught the eyes of the king and every time he either added them to his army and if they refused he got rid of them, that's the reason why he had so many people in the Spirit Strengthening realm working for him.
The gazes of all the people shifted towards the old man, who sat on one of the seats that was placed around the circular table, he was wearing a white robe and each move he made contained the elegance of a noble.
" So he is the famous Fortune Teller? Waah!! It's my first time seeing him, I never thought I could be so lucky. "
One man said, his face filled with a smile and his eyes with tears.
The people around him were surprised to see him act like that, they couldn't understand why would he be so happy just to see that person, so another person asked:
" Why are you so happy? He may be very famous but it isn't something to cry for- "
Cutting his words, the first man looked at him in disdainful and spoke:
" You don't know anything, he is worshipped by so many people he has a reputation just as high as the king if not more, many people even believe that he is the descendant of the God himself, just seeing him could bring you great fortune. "
As he spoke, an expression of pure bliss appeared on his face.
The others looked at him strangely, but then they just focused their attention on the front.
Wang Jia didn't think much and nodded in response to Xie's question, and since the stage was completely set, Xie decided to start the show.
He looked at all the elders and other people, as he spoke:
" Then before we start the trial of both the Matriarch, Wang Jia and her son, Wang Jin, just to remove any kind of doubts from all of your minds, I'll demonstrate it to everyone myself, how the trial will work and that this trial is fair and just. "
