Chapter 297: A plan to escape

" Do you think your son is innocent? "

Hearing Jayden's words, Xie's mouth was instantly shut closed, now if he said that the Godly Prophet's ability is fake then he would have to die, but if he kept saying that his abilities were right then all of his and his son's crimes might become public that might also bring severe harm to him, and now he was standing on a cross road.

Even the prophet didn't know what to say, he was 100 per cent confident in his ability but that meant that whatever Jayden said was true unless Jayden had found some kind of loophole, but that is also impossible.

Jayden didn't give him much time to think as he spoke: " Now tell me, do you think that the ability of the prophet is fake or not? If you think that this is not fake then tell me how was the bullshit I just spoke was all true? Also, I have a great clip to show everyone here. "

Saying that, he looked back at Jia and nodded at her, understanding what he wanted Jia smiled and injected Qi into her bracelet, and instantly a big picture was displayed in the air, with the help of her Qi, the image generated was very big and the sound was perfectly clear.

Under the curious gaze of everyone, the video started:

" When I was 14 years old, I drugged one of the girls, a- actually she was the daughter of a servant in o- our house cough cough and t- then I d- did that with her and when her family found her, m- my father killed her e- entire family. Then, after some time I killed the son of a... "

Everyone present there listened in complete silence, no one could believe what they were hearing, each crime was even worse than the previous ones and Xie, Chang Ho's father had played a really big role in it, by the time the video finished, everyone was staring at Xie with raged filled eyes.

" Now, the so called smartest brain of the kingdom, what do you have to say? Why don't you tell us whether everything your son confessed is true or not?

Oh right, you have to touch that sphere while saying anything, then we would know everything. " MVLeMpYr-your-novel-source

Xie was clenching his fists, he immediately wanted to shout that everything in that video was false, but thinking of touching the sphere while confessing, he couldn't bring himself to say anything.

' Fuck, making either choice will be bad only for me, there is no way out of this, it would be better for me to retreat for now. '

Xie thought and glanced at the surroundings.

" Of course that all is fake, I don't think we can reach any agreement like that, so let's end this matter for now, I'll talk with the king about this. "

Xie said out loud, acting righteously but everyone there could clearly see that he was just trying to run away from the situation.

Jayden's voice broke the silence, the prophet stopped his screams and looked around in confusion, both of his hands were still fine and everyone there was staring at him strangely, as if he is a mad man.

The prophet looked embarrassed as he stood up and jerked off all the dust off his clothes, but his body was still shaking in fear.

" Why are you still silent? Have you not made your decision yet? " Jayden said, his expression serious.

The prophet gulped and finally made a decision, to him his own life was much more important than anything else,

" I admit that my t- technique was fake, I wanted to make the two of you to appear as criminals, so I made the sphere act like that, it g- glows according to my will, I will admit that I have l- lost the bet. "

The prophet said, looking down, even though he would have to face the consequences because of this, even though his reputation would be ruined, he knew that going against Jayden was nothing short of a nightmare.

" I told you, now that you have lost, you will have to do what you promised to me, right? "

Jayden said, and Xie felt as if all the strength in his body was leaving, he knew what was to come, Xie felt despair and regretted his decision of ever coming here.

He should have been more careful, running away now won't be possible all four of the guards were a lot stronger than him, he glanced around and saw that the only people close to him were Jia, Wang Jin, the prophet and the guards.

He can't do anything to the guards or prophet or Jia, and that only leaves Wang Jin, he decided to take Jayden as a hostage to run away from there and much to his delight Jayden had stepped a little away from Wang Jia.

" Guards, kill Xie right now. "

The prophet ordered and all four of the guards began to walk towards him with menacing expressions.

" Y- You can't d- do this to me, I- I am still working as the k- king's a- adviser, w- whoever dares to touch me will be killed b- by the k- king. "
