Chapter 202: Kill the traitor-3
” M- Matriarch we were j- just following the vice leader, he told us he had found some evidence. We have nothing to do with it. ”
” Hmmm, it seems all of you are innocents but are all of you a bunch of fools to follow just anyone, but being a fool isn’t a crime so I guess I can’t kill you all. ” Jia said, placing her sword back in her ring.
All the disciples heaved a sigh of relief, being called stupid in front of everyone and suffering minor punishments was nothing compared to a death sentence.
The disciple who had previously spoken bowed and following him the rest of them bowed in front of her.
” Th- Thank you Matriarch, we’ll be more careful from the next time, all of us will never forget the kindness you showed us toda- ” he said, but was interrupted by Wang Jia’s next words.
” Arrest all of them, and keep them in prison. I want the truth out of them, and there is no need to waste food and water on them. ” Jia said and instantly the guards that were present around her house immediately followed her advice and instantly subdued all the disciples.
” Matriarch, please spare us, w- we’re all innocent. I beg you, pleaseeeee- ”
*THUD*
All the disciples pleaded, they cried and did everything to seem pitiful, but Jia showed no kindness towards them.
She wanted to kill all of them instantly, ‘ how dare they even think of harming my Jin, and it’s most probably the third elder who is behind this all. ‘ she thought, her gaze momentarily focussing on the third elder and his grandson.
Feeling Wang Jia’s killing intent, even for an instant, made both of them feel at unease, and they shifted uncomfortably. They understood that Wang Jia is now aware of everything, at the very least she suspect them.
Soon, all the disciples were dragged away, Wang Jia looked at the crowd and spoke:
” All of you can return back to your work, we’ll announce the result of the investigation later on. ”
After saying that she turned around and taking Jayden’s hand, she walked back into her house. The crowd slowly began to disperse, and instantly the third elder and Qiang fled from the scene, now they needed to proceed with caution.
The woman standing at the back of the crowd frowned upon hearing Wang Jia’s words, she was feeling extremely jealous of how close Jia was to him. Steeling her resolve to remove Jayden from Jia’s side, she walked away.
…
Inside the house, Jia brought Jayden back to the dining table, and both of them sat side by side. After sitting for a few seconds silently, she spoke:
” Jin, are you alright? ”
” Yes Mom, thanks for your help earlier, but who do you think was behind this entire thing? ” Jayden asked, taking her hand in his.
Squeezing Jayden’s hand, she replied: ” I’m sure you are already aware of it but I believe the third elder was the one who orchestrated the entire thing.
He must’ve wanted to separate you from me, no matter what I’ll never forgive them and as soon as I get the evidence I’ll kill that pair of dogs. ” Jia said with a deep frown.
” Yeah, I believe it’s them too, but you don’t have to worry too much we can deal with them together. ” Jayden said, calming her instantly.
Her frown disappeared and a smile appeared on her face, she gazed at her son’s handsome face and felt her heart racing. Jayden stood up and said:
” Mom, I’m going out for a moment, I’ll be back soon. ”
” I don’t think going outside alone is safe, why don’t I accompany you? ” Jia said, she still wanted to ask him about sleeping in the same room.
” There’s no need for that, I’m just going near the Treasure Pavilion, with so many guards there, I don’t think I’ll be in any kind of danger. ” Jayden said, he couldn’t let Jia follow him, since he wanted to buy some things.
” Okay, Uh… Then come back quickly, and keep this pendant with you. Don’t just give it to someone else like last time, okay? ” She said and took out a pendant out of her ring. Then walking in front of him, she placed it around his neck.
” Alright, I’ll keep it near me at all times, so don’t be too worried. ” He said and hugged her tightly, he kissed her lips lightly and then walked out of the house without looking back, leaving behind a stunned Jia.
She touched her lips, feeling the warmth over her lips even though it was just a peck but Wang Jia could still feel the soft sensation over her lips. All her worries disappeared and her head was instead filled with the scenes when Jayden had kissed her previously.
She wanted to feel that same sensation again, but couldn’t ask him directly since she was afraid of his reaction.
But with the kiss just now, Jia felt that all her worries were pointless, she should have just asked him to treat her, she regretted not asking earlier, if she had then she might have been able to feel that amazing taste.
Jia stood up and made up her mind to ask him to sleep in her room and treat her in the same way he had previously done before going to the Jade forest and also show her other ways of energy channelling. With happiness filling her heart, Jia returned to her work.
…
Jayden was walking towards the Treasure pavilion, all the disciples he met on the way did not had the same mocking expressions they previously directed towards him, now all of them were afraid of him.
Like always ignoring his surroundings, Jayden walked towards the pavilion and after walking for a few minutes, he arrived in front of the pavilion.
It looked as mighty as ever, and nothing seemed to be different, Jayden stepped inside and found it as crowded as ever.
One of the staff members saw Jayden entering and walked towards him, with a respectful bow he asked:
” How can I help you? Do you wish to buy something or are you here to sell? ” He asked in a professional manner.
” I want to buy a few things, there is an appraiser here who told me to look for him wherever I want anything. Can you inform him? ” Jayden said.
” Did he gave you anything, like a token or something? ” The staff asked.
” Oh, he indeed gave me a jade token, wait here it is. ” Jayden took out the token from his ring and showed it to the man.
” Ah… Alright, please follow me. ” He said and turned to lead him. After walking for a minute, he brought Jayden to an empty room, pointing towards a chair he spoke:
” Please wait here for a second, I’ll inform the master appraiser of your arrival. ” He said and after bowing left the room.
Jayden looked around and then scanned the place around him with his Void skill, immediately a frown appeared on his face.
Even though it was for a moment, he felt the familiar dark aura he had sensed previously from the black crow.
But it instantly disappeared, leaving Jayden confused, he was sure that someone was definitely following him but he couldn’t find who it was.
