Chapter 200: Kill the traitor
” I have never seen a weapon as beautiful and powerful as this one, where did you even get that? ” Jia asked in bewilderment. This sword was easily a top treasure, her own sword was nothing in front of it.
” That’s a secret, ” Jayden said winking at her ” Just use it as you like. This represents my love for you, Mom. ” He showed her a small smile.
” Still, there’s no way I can take it. Why don’t you use it yourself? ” Jia said and tried to push it towards him.
” Its attribute is ice, so I will not be able to unleash its full strength, when I saw this sword only your face appeared in my mind, and you’re the only one who deserves it. ” He said and pushed the sword back to her.
” Thank you, Jin, I’ll treasure it dearly. ” She knew Jayden would never take it back. Running her hand along the length of its scabbard, Jia felt the touch of the sword, then she gently removed the scabbard and observed the blade of the sword.
” Wow!! It’s the best gift I’ve received in my entire life. ” Jia’s eyes were filled with tears, she loved the sword even more because it came from her son, she placed the sword in her ring and looked at Jayden adoringly.
‘ There is no way I’ll let any girl take my Jin away from me, he is after all MY PRECIOUS, LOVELY SON. ‘ she thought, her gaze becoming more intense by the second.
Jia’s level of love for him had already increased to a dangerous level, if even as a joke he asked her to kill someone, even if it was an elder in her sect, then she wouldn’t even ask the reason before killing him / her.
Then she remembered the thing she wanted to ask him, biting her lip she wondered, ‘ Will he agree if I ask him to sleep in the same room as me, at least the beds are separated. ‘
” Jin, what do you think about sharing a roo- ” But her words were drowned under the loud shout that came from outside.
” YOU TRAITOROUS BRAT, COME OUT RIGHT THIS INSTANT. HOW DARE YOU COMMIT SUCH A HEINOUS CRIME. ”
Both Jayden and Jia frowned and looked at each other, after a silent tacit agreement, they both stood up and walked towards the door.
As soon as they opened the door, they saw a large crowd gathered in front of the house. There were discipline, elders and many other people who worked in the sect.
The one who stood at the fore front of the crowd was a man named Dong, who was the vice leader of the Justice hall.
The hall which is responsible for giving punishments to disciples if they were to commit any kind of crime.
Jayden looked over everyone and at the back of the crowd he saw the third elder and Qiang smiling. Wang Jia frowned, addressing Dong she asked:
” Why are you shouting in front of my house? Is this how your hall is supposed to work, I guess I’ll need to have a word with your hall master. ”
Dong broke out in a cold sweat, still pretending to be tough, he spoke: ” I greet the Matriarch, I apologize for my earlier behaviour, but this matter is just too big to act calmly. ” He said.
Dong had the third elder as his backer, so even if Wang Jia was to remove him from his position, he would still be able to obtain the great rewards they promised to him. And with his talent and prestige, he would have no difficulty joining any other sect.
‘ And I don’t think she will be able to remove me from my position after listening to why I am here, instead, she will have to punish Wang Jin severely. ‘ he thought, holding in his grin.
” Tell me, what is it? ” Wang Jia asked, narrowing her eyes at him.
Taking in a long breath to calm himself, he spoke: ” It’s about Wang Jin, We believe he has harmed a fellow disciple. ”
Raising an eye brow, she asks: ” Which disciple? ” She didn’t believe for one second that her son was the type of person who would harm others for no reason.
” Everyone here thinks, he has killed Mo Peng who was missing in the forest along with him. We can’t let this matter slide, even if he is your son, he needs to face the consequences of his actions. ”
He said, and over a dozen Justice Hall disciples who stood behind him spoke in agreement.
” Oh? And how did you come to that conclusion? ” Jayden asked, stepping forward.
” Here comes the culprit, I can’t believe he could commit such an atrocious crime with such an innocent face, killing a fellow disciple is just as bad as killing your own brother, we can’t allow people like him to live among- ” Dong began to shout and ignite everyone around them.
” Cut the crap, get to the point. Tell me why do you all think I killed him? ” Jayden asked interrupting him, in a disrespectful way.
” Hmph, both of you disappeared in that dangerous forest for so long, and only you returned with a little to no injuries, even after getting caught by the Red Arm Bandits who are famous for their atrocious nature.
I believe you traded Mo Peng’s life for your own, and we even think that you are here as a spy from the Bandit group. I suggest you to surrender without a fight, if you do we will at least give you a painless death. ”
He said with a mocking expression on his face, he dared to speak such words since he knew Wang Jia didn’t like her son much, otherwise, he wouldn’t have even sided with the third elder.
” So, because I was able to return without any injuries you want to say I killed Peng and also that I am a spy sent here by the bandits? ” Jayden asked in a calm tone.
” Of course, otherwise how could you explain that someone with your level of measly strength could escape after being captured by the cruel bandits and then return all the way to the sect safely, and even from all the beasts that lurks there?
You don’t have anything to say in response, do you? Surrender while I am still giving you the chance. ” He said pointing his finger towards Jayden.
Wang Jia was boiling in anger, clenching her teeth, she stepped forward but Jayden’s firm grip on her arm stopped her from doing anything.
She looked back at him and after seeing his smile, she calmed down a little, Jia knew her son could handle the situation, so, she waited for him to act.
At the back of the crowd, a woman looked at the pair of mother and son jealously, she looked at Jayden who was holding Wang Jia’s hand.
She had destroyed Jayden’s house but the outcome of it turned into something that made her regret her decision of ever destroying his house.
Ever since the first time she saw Wang Jia, she has been in love with her, so seeing Jayden living in the same house as Jia, made her very upset.
