After being excommunicated and viewed as a heretic, Hus voluntarily went into exile from 1412 to 1414 and lived among wealthy nobility in southern Bohemia.
(A heretic is someone who has spoken out against the church and often associated with the devil. People wouldn't want to be around heretics.)
During this period, he wrote numerous books, including his most influential treatise on the church, De Ecclesia, written in 1413. In this work Hus emphasized that the state should be able to oversee the actions of the church and that the Church should follow the teachings of the Bible.

In 1414 Hus agreed to travel to Constance, Germany, to attend the church council that had been convened to deal with him.
Hus’s teaching had been condemned as heretical by the church, which meant it was something that spoke out against the church, and he naively thought he would have the opportunity to defend himself at the council.
Instead, Hus was convicted as a heretic and imprisoned! After being convicted, the church conducted frequent attempts to force Hus to recant, take back what he said. Hus refused and he was removed from the priesthood and charged with being a stubborn heretic.
His punishment, Hus was burned at the stake on July 6, 1415.
