Chapter 292: The trial-2
Xie’s words were met with a loud cheer from the crowd, after achieving his goal of getting everyone’s approval, Xie walked towards the empty seat in front of the Godly Prophet, and after a bow, he sat down.
” Sir, even though no one in this Kingdom dares to question your abilities, but just to remove any confusion I would like to show everyone that the trial is fair and just, please help me do that and I have no intention of offending you by asking this request. ”
Xie said in the most respectful tone he could muster.
The Godly Prophet nodded in satisfaction, he loves being worshipped by everyone, being called the god, it makes him feel powerful.
” I understand your intention, since you have asked I’ll give a chance for everyone to see the ability called ‘The Result’, in my entire life this ability have never been wrong, it has helped us save so many life in the past and also… ”
The Godly Prophet boasted about his skill, as everyone listened in awe, then after a few minutes, he took out a white sphere of the size of a basketball out of his storage ring and placed it on the table, on a stand.
Then he spoke: ” This is the tool that will help me to show everyone whether the person in front of me is lying or not. If someone is lying then it will tell us about it. ”
As he spoke everyone in the crowd was stunned, they couldn’t understand how it could help them know whether the other person was lying or not, but the prospect of seeing something so magical excited them all even further.
” Now, Mr Xie, if you could place both of your hands on this beautiful ball of mine. ”
The Godly Prophet said, as he placed his own hand on the sphere, and then enchanted something in low voice, the sphere glowed with a bright white light for a second, and then it returned back to its normal state.
After seeing the prophet nod towards him, Xie placed his hands on the sphere and sat up straight.
” Let’s begin sir. ” Xie said, looking fully determined.
” Haha, let us start with something light, Is your name Xie? ” The Godly Prophet asked.
” Yes, my name is Xie. ” He said and in the next instant, a bright blue light came out of the sphere.
” This blue light indicates that you are telling the truth, now for the next question please tell us the wrong answer, are you the king of this Kingdom? ”
The prophet asked, his expression looked wise and his words made many in the crowd to cry.
” Yes, I am the king of this Kingdom. ”
And just as Xie said this, the sphere vibrated and a bright red light was emitted by it.
” All of you must have understood by now, that this red light will indicate that the person in front of me is lying, so does anyone have any doubts about my ability? ”
The prophet asked, looking around though he was sure no one would dare question him.
But as he looked over the crowd, there was one hand that was raised, as he looked he saw Jayden standing there with a raised hand.
” Haha little one, what do you want to ask to me? ” The prophet said arrogantly.
” Xie, that person just now had said that you were going to prove the authenticity of the trial with this, but how can we believe that’s the case, after all these questions are something you already know the answers to, so you could just change the light however you want, I want the question to be something whose answer you don’t know about. ”
After Jayden finished, many people in the crowd began to curse him, as they were the worshippers of the Godly Prophet but many found his reason to be valid after all since the prophet already knew the answers to these questions then he could just change the light himself, and to others, it would seem like the sphere is working, so only by using questions that the prophet isn’t aware of, could the test really be valid.
” Haha, you are quite daring to question my abilities so openly, well Young people should contain at least that much courage… ”
The Godly Prophet said showing a smile on his face, though internally he was fuming with rage, angry that someone so lowly dares to question his abilities, then he continued:
“Since you want me to prove it, what do you suggest? ” He asked not showing his anger on his face.
Jayden smiled and said: ” It’s simple, I’ll ask two questions to Mr Xie whose answers he will provide only to me discreetly, then we will test whether your magic ball is working or not, what do you think? ”
Jayden asked with a smile. ” Alright, just get it over with, I don’t want to waste too much of my time here. ”
The prophet said non chalantly.
Xie looked annoyed too, even so he reluctantly stood up and made his way towards Jayden, and then he waited for him to ask the two questions.
Jayden got closer to him and in his ears he whispered a question, hearing it Xie’s face was filled with anger, he looked at Jayden as if he was about to cut him into a thousand pieces.
” You bastard, how dare you ask me such type of question? ” Xie shouted, his rage evident on his face.
” Hmm, what’s the problem? ” The prophet asked impatiently.
” S- Sir I can’t answer his question, he is just too muc- ” Xie began to complain, but his words were interrupted by Jayden who spoke disdainfully:
” So when you said that this trial is going to be fair and just, you were just trying to trick us huh? If not why can’t you answer such a simple question, don’t tell me that both of you were actually planning to do something shady behind the scenes. ” Jayden said accusingly.
Just as Jayden completed his sentence, the crowd began to discuss it, they all wondered whether Xie and the others were really here to falsely accuse Wang Jia and Wang Jin, if not why can’t they prove that their trial isn’t wrong.
The public opinion was shifting towards Jayden, as even those who worshipped the Godly Prophet looked at them with questioning eyes, wondering what was going on.
Seeing this, the prophet couldn’t bear to let his reputation be dragged down along with Xie’s, he looked at Xie with anger, wanting to give him a good beating.
” O- Of course not, but how could you ask such low level questio- ” Xie tried to refute, but this time he was interrupted by the Godly Prophet.
” Don’t waste my time like that, just get it over with, because of you, it seems like we both are lying. ” The prophet said through gritted teeth, his old face looking menacing.
Xie sighed loudly, he turned his gaze back towards Jayden and spoke: ” L- Let’s continue. ”
Jayden nodded in satisfaction and asked both of his questions, and Xie looked more angry by the second, as he heard Jayden’s questions.
