Chapter 293: The trial-3
After hearing Jayden's questions, Xie had an angry expression on his face he wanted to kill Jayden right there and then but looking back at the Godly Prophet, he reluctantly told Jayden all the answers.
" Alright, now let's start, Xie go over there and touch that ball, then I'll be asking the questions after that we will be able to see whether or not this thing actually works. "
Xie knew what was about to come, with angry steps he walked near the Prophet and then sat in front of him, after a few seconds he placed both his hands on the sphere, he didn't like getting orders from him but could do nothing.
" Can we start? "
Jayden asked looking at the prophet, who nodded arrogantly in response.
Then he looked over the crowd and announced:
" Now I'm going to ask my first question, everyone here is the witness to whatever happens here. "
As the crowd waited Jayden continued:
" So tell me, have you ever had sex with a man? "
With a loud shout, Xie immediately spoke:
" Of course not, I'm a man of noble character, I'm not some one lowly who would do such a thing. "
*BUZZZZZZZ*
The sphere immediately began to vibrate and a red light was emitted by it making everyone who saw it gasp in shock, they all looked at Xie strangely, wondering whether the sphere is wrong or whether he is really telling a lie.
" I- I have never been with a man, th- this is wrong, I have a wife why would I ever be with a man? "
Xie immediately refused it, he couldn't let his reputation be ruined any further, and the gazes of all the people were now focused on him making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
" Then are you telling me that my abilities are fake? Are you saying that I am just a swindler? "
The Godly Prophet asked with narrowed eyes, his aura concentrating on Xie.
" N- No sir, that's not w- what I meant, I just W- want to say that this is- "
Xie was still afraid of the prophet, not wanting to offend him he began to make excuses but was interrupted by the prophet.
" Enough, just tell us whether that's true or not. " The Godly Prophet asked, his eyes carrying a dangerous glint.
" I- It's... It's t- true, I was in a relationship with a m- man in the p- past, n- no it was an a- accident, I thought it w- was a wo- "
Xie spoke, his face was red in shame, as he stuttered at every word.
" Alright that's enough of an answer, now tell me is it the same answer he told you? "
Interrupting Xie, the Godly Prophet looked at Jayden and asked.
" Yes, that's right he did tell me that, I guess this thing might actually be genuine, then let's go for the second question... "
Jayden said with a smile, in reality, Xie had never been with any man, but using his Void skill Jayden created a memory in his head of him having sex with a man.
Jayden wanted to test whether or not he could manipulate this sphere and he was satisfied with the result, since this ability of the prophet just tells whether or not the person is lying but it wouldn't tell whether it is actually true or not, so Jayden could exploit this flaw.
Then he asks the second question:
" Are you also a part of your son's crime of killing and drugging girls, or have you ever helped your son get out of punishment for his crimes? "
Jayden asked this question as Xie frowned instead of answering he sat silent, ever since Jayden had asked this question he was thinking of ways to get out of his situation and so he spoke:
" My son never has committed any crime in front of me. "
Just as he spoke, the sphere glowed with a blue light and everyone believed that Chang Ho hadn't committed any crime, Xie sat there with a smile on his face, happy that he got out of the dire situation.
" Now that both of your questions have finished, why don't you start confes- "
But interrupting him Jayden spoke:
" Do you think everyone here is stupid, don't change the answer i hadn't asked whether or not he committed crimes in front of you but whether you helped him or not. "
Jayden said, and now everyone looked at Xie suspiciously, they all could see how he tried to manipulate them.
As he was caught red handed, Xie wondered why he was the one getting caught in his own trap, he stammered and tried to end this:
" A- Anyway, it is already proven that the test is just and fair, so let's not waste any more time and start it. "
Jayden shrugged and spoke: " Alright, if that's what you want then we will start with our trial. "
As he spoke Wang Jia and the crowd looked at him confusedly, wondering why he wasn't exposing Xie, who heaved a sigh of relief and hastily took his hand off the sphere then he stood up and moves away from the seat.
" Mom, you can go first and don't confess to anything, say no whether or not you have done it. "
Jayden said in a low voice, in response Jia nodded and gracefully made her way towards the seat in front of the Prophet who stared at her face with lustful eyes.
He had heard so many things about her but this was the first time he was seeing her, so he couldn't take his away from her face after seeing how beautiful she looked.
Jia noticed his gaze, but she simply said:
" Let's start. "
Coming out of his daze, the prophet shook his head and then acted like a noble man.
" So Matriarch, please place your hand over this sphere. "
The prophet said trying not to let his gaze linger on her face for too long.
Jia nodded and placed both of her hands on the sphere and then she waited for him to ask questions.
" Alright, let's start this, so my first question is... "
He took a small pause, as he carefully chose his words and then spoke:
" Have you stolen a crystal that belonged to the king? He had lent it to one of the elders of your sect, so do you know anything about it? " He asked, as he inquired his first question.
' So he is asking me about the stone, Jin had told me about, so that pig of a king has really lost something valuable hahaha what a pleasant news. '
Wang Jia thought, stopping herself from laughing out loud.
" No, I have never seen such a thing neither do I have any hand in stealing it. " Then a bright blue light was emitted out of the sphere.
' So, she really doesn't know anything about it, I guess the king was wasting his time trying to find it on her. ' Xie thought.
The prophet nodded, all the people in the crowd discussed what this crystal might be that they were talking about, but no one among them had any news of it.
