Chapter 191: Who did it?
As Jayden ran towards the Divine Sword Sect, he felt as if someone was watching him.
Without looking back, he observed his surroundings by the Void skill and found a strange crow following behind him, flying at the same speed as him.
Even though Jayden wasn’t running at his peak speed, still his speed wasn’t something that a normal crow could be able to match.
He turned around abruptly as his feet skidded on the ground and then he tried to catch the crow, but before he could even use any of his skills, the crow turned into smoke and disappeared.
Jayden frowned and tried to find anyone in the surrounding, but even after scanning the area around him, he couldn’t find anyone.
” Strange, who is it that’s keeping an eye on me now? Any elder from the divine sword sect, someone from another sect or maybe the king, haa, fuck who is it? ” Jayden sighed and muttered to himself.
There was an ominous feeling he got from the Qi that was released after the crow disappeared, it was dark and evil Qi. After thinking for a few more seconds, Jayden continued to run back at the same pace.
After running for more than a dozen minutes Jayden finally arrived at the boundary of the Divine Sword sect, after which he began to walk at a normal pace.
” The sect seems more lively than usual. ” He mumbled, the crowd entering and leaving the sect was more than two times more than that of normal.
After arriving near the gate, Jayden joined the line of people who were entering. Within a couple of minutes, it was his turn to enter.
” Are you a disciple here? ” One of the guards asked.
” Yes, I am. See this. ” Jayden said and then showed them his bracelet that he brought from the Treasure Pavilion.
The guard was surprised since the bracelet Jayden was wearing wasn’t the normal one, instead it was quite expensive.
Then he squinted his eyes and tried to remember where he had seen him, after seeing his otherworldly appearance, he finally understood.
” You, are you Wang Jin? ” He asked.
” Yes, can I enter now? ” Jayden questioned.
” Of course, you can go. Have a nice day. ” The guard said and made space for Jayden to pass.
Then he strolled into the sect, his clothes were a little dirty, and attracted the attention of everyone. Many people who recognised him gasped in shock since everyone thought he had died in the forest.
Ignoring his surrounding, Jayden headed towards his home, after which he was planning to visit Wang Jia and see how everything will turn out.
There was a couple walking in front of him, they were talking loudly, annoying other disciples.
” Are you going to participate in the sect competition? ” The girl asked.
” Yeah, I will definitely place in the top five among the junior disciples. ” The boy said with confidence dripping in his voice.
” If you can, then I’ll tell my parents about our relationship and if they agree maybe we’ll be able to marry in the future. ” She said while holding his arm.
” Haha… Ha Ha that- that would be great. ” The boy said faking his excitement, then he tried to change the topic: ” After the sect competition ends, a big marriage will take place, right? ”
” I’m so excited about it, senior brother Qiang and senior sister Xiao are going to marry soon, they look like the perfect couple. ” She said, forgetting about what they were talking about earlier.
The boy saw the opportunity, and he spoke: ” I even heard that they have already decided on the wedding dresses, and senior sister Xiao had already agreed upon the date of their wedding. ”
” She always seemed so cold, so I thought senior sister would never fall in love, but maybe she actually loves senior brother. ” The girl said, wishing to have a romantic story of her own.
…
” Hmmm, so she agreed, huh? ” Jayden murmured after listening to their conversation. ” Well, whatever, it is her loss, she had the chance and now I don’t care anymore. ”
He has already done more than enough, if she isn’t even honest with herself then there is nothing that Jayden can do, so it’s better to just forget about her.
He walked without any changes in his expression, but in his mind, Jayden had already decided to not be with her ever, even if she begged.
With this resolve in mind, Jayden soon appeared in front of his humble abode, but what greeted him wasn’t the familiar small house, but a big pile of rubble.
Someone had destroyed his house completely, everything that was present inside was broken and torn. Each and everything was destroyed thoroughly, leaving not even a brick intact.
Jayden felt his anger rising, even though he had lived here for a short amount of time, he liked this house.
‘ Who did it? Third elder? Qiang? Lao Rong? Or is it someone I’m not even aware of. ‘ he wondered, still holding in his anger.
” I’ll make sure whoever did it regrets his/her actions dearly. ” He muttered. ” Then I should go and meet my dear mom now. ”
After looking at his broken home one last time, Jayden walked towards Wang Jia’s house.
While walking Jayden pondered about the strange crow and the condition of his house, he wondered if there was any relation in between the two things, but in the end, he dismissed it.
Soon, he reached Wang Jia’s house after scanning the house, Jayden found that she wasn’t there. Closing his eyes, he concentrated all his attention on void skill and scanned his surroundings.
Within a few seconds, Jayden found her, she was standing some distance away with another woman. Without waiting, he walks in her direction.
…
Wang Jia came to visit a friend of hers, who works in the sect to manage the finance. She is the head of the finance department and had taken charge of the sect numerous times in Wang Jia’s absence.
Her name is Dandan, she is over 70 years old and is quite a moody woman. She has a habit of making jokes while talking to anyone, and she gets really angry when others don’t laugh at her jokes.
Jia wanted to leave the sect and return to the Jade Forest to search for her son, so she came to meet Dandan and asks her for help to take control of the sect while she will be gone.
” Dandan, if it wasn’t urgent I wouldn’t have bothered you, please just help me this once, I’ll owe you one. ” Jia said.
” You said something similar the last time too, handling the entire sect is such a headache, I don’t want my life to get short, so find someone else. ” Dandan replied, turning her head away.
“…” Jia couldn’t think of any way to make her agree, since she had already asked her for help many times in the past.
” Okay tell me: What did one wall say to the other wall? ” Dandan asked, a grin on her face.
” Uh… I don’t know. ” Jia thought for a few seconds but couldn’t think of the answer.
” The answer is: the wall said, I’ll meet you at the corner. Hahahaha ” Dandan said and began to laugh.
