Chapter 204: A visit to Justice Hall
Without giving anything away, xiao replied: ” Of course, I’m happy that he came back alive, after all, he saved my life many times in the forest. ”
Lao Rong knew that her daughter was definitely hiding something from her, then a thought came to her mind, and she asked in disbelief: ” Don’t tell me, you’re in love with h- ”
*KNOCK* *KNOCK*
Lao Rong’s words were interrupted by the knock on the door, deciding to continue this conversation some other time, she spoke: ” Come in. ”
Xiao Rong heaved a sigh of relief, if it had continued for a minute longer, then Lao Rong might have made her confess everything.
One of the servants walked in and after bowing she spoke: ” Greeting mam, hello ms. Xiao. ”
Both the women nodded in response, then Lao Rong asked: ” Do you have something important to report? ”
” Yes mam, something big happened in the sect just now, it involves the Matriarch, her son and some members from the Justice hall. ” She said.
Both Xiao and Lao Rong placed their food down and looked at the servant curiously, waiting for the news. Xiao’s ears perked up hearing that this news involves Wang Jin, she wondered what it could be.
” Just now, the Vice leader from the Justice hall, Dong, brought over a dozen disciples along with him to the Matriarch’s residence and then accused Wang Jin of being a spy and also of killing a fellow… ”
She began to explain everything, from the start to the point when Wang Jia killed Dong and captured others.
” Those shitty brats think they could do anything just because Matriarch tries not to meddle in their business most of the time, but this time they’ll get a proper lesson. ” Lao Rong said.
” I- Is Jin alright? He didn’t get hurt, did he? ” Xiao asked, as she failed to hide her worries.
” Yeah he is completely fine, contrary to what everyone believes, the Matriarch took his side, it was almost like she was saying that no one is allowed to touch her son. ” The servant replied.
” Hmm, why did she have this sudden change of heart? ” Lao Rong wondered.
” Mother, I’m going out for a minute. ” Xiao said and stood up from her chair.
” At least finish your food, and where are you going so early? ” Lao Rong asked.
” I’m full, and I’m going out to meet a friend, see you later. ” Xiao said and hurriedly walked out of the house.
She wanted to see Jayden and tell him everything as soon as possible, Qiang hadn’t yet received the news of the cancellation of the engagement, and so this news hadn’t yet been released to the public, so she wanted to tell it to Jayden herself.
Lao Rong couldn’t believe her daughter have friends with that personality of her, but she didn’t ask anything.
” Haa, my daughter is becoming weird by the day, anyway tell me about the progress of the thing I asked you to do. ” Lao Rong asked, as she resumed eating.
” We have already sent the letter to the third elder’s house, they will receive it by the end of today. ” the maid explained.
” Great, you can go back. ” Lao Rong dismissed her.
******
Wang Jia was reading some papers, but her mind was constantly drifting towards the door, she was waiting for Jayden to return.
” Before he returns, maybe I should go and have a word with the hall master of the justice hall. ” Jia thought and putting the papers away, she stood up and walked out of her room and flew in the direction of the building of the Justice Hall.
Within a few seconds, she appeared in front of the hall, as she entered all the disciples bowed respectfully, and made way for her to enter. Ignoring everything around her, Wang Jia made her way directly towards the room of the hall master.
The hall master has already heard of the incident that had just taken place, although he thought it was a pity that the vice leader died, but it didn’t affect him too much and he didn’t think his position or life were in any danger.
*BANG*
The door to his room swung open, the hall master looked up in anger ready to last out at whoever dared to kick open his door but seeing who had entered he forced a smile on his face.
” Matriarch, you should’ve just called me, you didn’t have to come here yourself. ” He said and stood up, respectfully giving a seat to Wang Jia.
But she meant business, without talking nonsense she got to the point: ” Was Dong under your command when he tried to kill my son? ”
” Oh my, why would I order something like that, even if I were to find any evidence I would have presented it to you first. ” He said, showing a cheeky smile.
*Baaaaaam*
Without any words, Jia waved her hand and threw an ice ball at his face, his strength was nothing in comparison to Wang Jia’s, and before he could even react, the ice ball hit his face, throwing him back.
” Did you order him to kill my son? ” Jia asked again.
” N- No Matriarch, I- I didn’t he acted on his own, please believe me. ” He said, before Wang Jia have never acted so aggressively so everyone have forgotten how terrifying she is, but now he is fearing that she might really kill him.
Without caring about the injuries he has just suffered, he hit his head on the ground, trying to make her believe his words.
” That better be the case, if I found out you played ANY role in any of it, I’m going to kill you in the most brutal way, even if you were to hide in the depths of hell. ” Jia said and walked out of the room leaving behind a dishevelled hall master.
After leaving the Justice Hall, Jia walked back to her house just as she reached mid way, one of her personal guards appeared behind her out of nowhere.
” What’s the matter? Did it turn out as we expected? ” She asked, without turning her head.
” Yes Matriarch, all the Justice Hall disciples we captured earlier were found dead in the prison. ” He reported, walking behind her.
” Did you see who killed them? ” She asked, a smile forming on her lips.
” Yes, it is one of the prison guards, he is a close friend of the third elder’s subordinate. But we still don’t have any evidence that third elder ordered the entire thing. ” He said.
” It’s fine, just keep a watch over him and report if you find any thing suspicious. ” Just as she finished speaking, the man disappeared from behind her.
Then she flew back to her home, and with anticipation opened the door but was disappointed to find that Jayden hadn’t returned yet.
She find it strange that she couldn’t sense Jayden’s presence most of the time, but she have already gotten used to it.
With a sigh, she returned back to her work because of the sect competition her work had increased quite a bit, but in her mind she was already planning of ways to deal with the third elder.
