The Geared Immortal

Heroes and Villains: Chapter 2

/*unedited*/

After Jin Fu showed them his plan, everyone immediately agrees with it. Even the five people who came from Wu city also find that his plan is feasible and straightforward. And so with that, the five people from the city of Wu immediately stepped forward as fighters.

And on the side of Jin Fu's group, they have Jin Fu himself and the middle-aged man named Ping Gui who came with their group. Then three middle-aged men from other groups stepped forward in which one of them is actually already an infant soul realm cultivator.

That man is keeping it low-key because he didn't want any attention for himself. He is just here to get a chance to kill the necromancer, and now he was given this chance he didn't want to let it go. This is due to his hatred for Su Aw who destroyed one of the villages from which he came, though almost all of them have this kind of reason for being here.

The door of the hall slowly opens up and five people began walking out. Jin Fu is the last one to come out as he held Ling Ya's hand.

"I'll come back okay! I promise…" Jin Fu said as he squeezes her hand gently.

"Umm… I know. Whatever happens I'll… I'll follow you soon." She muttered as a small bead of tear slid down her beautiful face.

"I won't let anything happen to you and little Bao'er… I… I will always love you." Jin Fu muttered as he kissed her forehead.

Unknown to both of them a young woman suddenly had her eyes turned into tiny slits. She didn't know why but her heartfelt uncomfortable upon seeing the sweet gesture of the man towards the woman in his arm. It's like she wanted to be that woman he is currently giving a hug. She didn't know that his heroic countenance and temperament already caught her heart.

"Let's go!" Xinge Lee suddenly shouted with a hint of annoyance in her tone.

This didn't escape the notice of the handsome young man beside her, which made him frown upon looking at the situation. He has been wooing the princess for a long time, but she never showed him such an expression making feel envious and jealous of the man in a white robe.

"Damn, this guy… If I don't teach you a lesson after this, then my surname would not be Wo." Max Wo thought as he gritted his teeth in anger and jealousy.

When the ten people stepped forward towards the barrier, the mist in the village immediately thinned down. And now they discovered that in the middle of the village not more than five hundred meters away from the mansion stood a high platform where they can see several figures already standing on it. And sitting in the middle of the group in a stone throne is a man wearing a dark red robe, with a black hood draped on his head covering half of his face in a shadow.

Seeing the situation, everyone noticed that it's actually already the morning of the next day. This means that they have spent a day of fighting in this place which seems to be without a sense of time as everything seems to be covered in mist.

Jin Fu and the rest of the ten cultivators found their way towards the raised stone platform which is actually visible from the mansion. Everyone inside it came out to watch the battle that is going to happen.

When their group reached the platform, they were able to see the figure of Su Aw and ten other figures standing beside him.

Suddenly someone slowly walks forward and stood in the middle of the stage, the person is a tall thin-looking man.

 "Hello! I am Jester! I will be the one who will be talking to you on behalf of my master." Jester introduced.

"You already know our condition in this fight, right? How about you? Do you have any other questions?" Jester asked.

"I just have one thing to say… If we win, I want you to let us go. If ever we die in this war. I want to die along with family." A middle-aged man who looks amicable suddenly said as he steps forward.

With his words, silence suddenly pervades the surroundings. His words convey one thing, and that is he has already given up the hope that the town of Snowpeach can escape this tragedy. Though he is confident to be able to win this so-called fight against any opponent, only as a whole the situation is already in dire straights. And thus, this stunned the people among his group and even Su Aw felt a little amused.

"I like this guy… It seems that he has a foresight on things… Well, he would make a good soldier in my army. Kekeke…" Su Aw thought.

"Alright… any other request?" Jester asked with a smile.

No one answered him as Jin Fu's group has already laid out a plan in their minds on how to stop Su Aw and his cronies.

…

Meanwhile, Ling Ya and a few others immediately began to make their move according to Jin Fu's plan. No matter what happened, Ling Ya's group has the most important role in surviving this situation. If they fail then everything is for naught and all of them would perish or be stuck in this place for as long as Su Aw lives.

Since the mansion is the safest place in this village full of rot and decay. Ling Ya along with other cultivators proficient in making arrays began to draw runes on the ground surrounding the mansion. Then after some time, she asked everyone to go back inside the mansion as she activates the array. After activating the array, no other activities can be seen as silence pervaded the surroundings of the huge mansion.

Unknown to everyone, within the perimeter of the village, hidden within the mist stood many unmoving shadows which just pops up out from the ground like mushrooms. They are like creatures in the dark waiting for something or someone to command them. Even Su Aw himself is unaware of this occurrence as these things are beings not born or created by his own hands but by something else. It is unknown as to whom this force belongs to as each of those shadows exudes a sinister aura that seems to belong from the netherworld.

…

On the top of the stone platform, Jin Fu and his team moved towards a side where stone benches can be seen. As their group huddle together and discuss the details of their plans, Su Aw and his minions also move to another side. In the middle of the circular arena stood Jester, who would act as the referee of the battle.

After some time, Jester felt a little impatient as he watches the other group with contempt.

"Alright, first I will explain the rules… Well, THERE ARE NO RULES! Hahahahha… if you die then you lose. Kekeke…" Jester said animatedly.

Then he lifted his hand and pointed towards the corner where a tall man suddenly steps forward. The giant-like person is wearing heavy armor and it seems that he is a bandit. The leather cloth draped on his shoulder could not hide his strong muscles. Making him looks like a very strong cultivator. But the chunk of flesh missing from the left side of his body which exposes his ribs made everyone realize that he is already one of the undead cultivators.

"That is one of the bandit leaders in this region. I guess now we know why those bandits went missing." one of the middle-aged men wearing a green cultivators robe with a golden dragon embedded on his back muttered upon seeing the familiar face.

"This is our warrior! His name is Guargol, the bandit king in this area. He is a very strong warrior, almost unbeatable in a one on one combat, and… he has a strong lust for women. Even in his death, he still seeks the pleasure of the flesh… Kekeke, So missy… be careful!" Jester introduces.

"I will face this guy." the middle-aged man who recognizes Guargol volunteered as he stood up.

Guargol and the middle-age man have a history between them. In his younger years, the middle-aged man along with his sect members went out of the mountain from where their sect is located. Then on their way to Snowpeach town, they were ambushed by a group of bandits. At that time, Guargol is just a lowly leader of a bandit group. In that ambush, Guargol and his group killed two of their sect members but lost many of his brothers.

Guargol then swears that he would find the sect where the middle-aged man belongs to. After a few years, Guargol truly found their sect and a fierce battle ensues between his sect and Guargol's bandit group which has reached almost a thousand people. That fierce battle resulted in the deaths of many disciples and bandits alike. Which made his sect and Guargol's bandit group became mortal enemies.

Then after a few dozens of years, he became an elder of the sect and heard that a few months ago Guargol's gang of bandits suddenly vanished. This made his sect celebrate for their mortal enemy is now gone. They would not be bothered by these bandits anymore.

Now that he saw Guargol in this place, the middle-aged man realizes the reason for his disappearance and started to worry about his sect.
