The Geared Immortal

Chapter 491

/*unedited*/

Alchema City

Inside a two-story building in a private room stood three people. One of them is a middle-aged man who had a disheveled appearance while the other two are old men and one of them is wearing a hooded cloak.

"Principal Ao, I must get my revenge, if not then my heart will not be satisfied… I must kill that guy!" he shouted in anger.

"Shut up! You have ruined the reputation of our school. How could a vice-principal make a move towards a teacher of the school in public? If the Mai clan heard this…"

"Haha… Principal, you're worrying too much. The Mai clan cannot touch me. If I want them to hand over Yao Mai, then they will hand her over in a silver platter."

"If you are so capable, then why didn't you do that from before?"

"Well, before I wanted to win her using my own charms and not my family background. But seeing her acting like a b*tch and being with that gigolo truly infuriates me."

"Enough! You pompous and evil creature! Do you want me to cut off our family ties?" suddenly the hooded old man shouted.

When the vice-principal saw the reaction of the hooded man and his real appearance, he was immediately shaken.

"Great… great grand elder… No, I was just too foolish; please… please don't punish me. I… I will not do anything anymore. Please quell your anger." He said while begging in front of the old man.

It turns out that the old man is the great grand elder of the Gang clan in the capital city of the Er kingdom.

"You were defeated fair and square even though you launched a sneak attack. This only proves that the young man is stronger. If you don't want to die, then don't cause any more trouble to him or his companions."

"Yes, yes, I will listen to the great grand elder."

"Go out now!" the old man wearing a hood said was he dismissed the vice-principal.

When the vice-principal walks out of the room, he directly went downstairs. But if one observes closely, one can see the angry glint in his eyes.

Chao Gang has been a vice-principal of the Floating Lotus Alchemy School. Although he did a lot of atrocious things in school, he was not found out. But sometimes, people would discover what he did and he would just pay them or silence them, hence he continues to reign with terror in the school.

Since the principal is either cultivating or away, he was the one in power. And this is one of the reasons why the once prestigious Floating Lotus Alchemy School slowly fell to the bottom. But of course, he would not admit that it was his doing. He would either blame the principal or the students for not being good enough.

"I will have my revenge… I will get my hands on you and your disciple, and then I will make the two of you my slaves in bed… Hehe…" he muttered with a sinister face as he walks out of the building.

…

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao and the two women are inside a flying carriage that Song Xie took out from her spatial tool. The carriage is big enough for eight people and it looks like a wooden chest with glass windows.

"This thing looks… cool." Shin Jiao muttered as he scrutinized the interior of the vehicle.

"Thank you… Mister… I mean… Master Ji." Song Xie said respectfully.

Right now, she is a bit afraid of Shin Jiao. Compared to before when she didn't know his strength, she is now well aware that this low-key young man is not that simple. So she didn't want to offend him as she still has a request to have him help her parents.

"Hey, you're too stiff… relax, I won't bite." Shin Jiao teased while shaking his head.

"Master Ji, you can't blame my disciple… she is now aware that you are not just anyone, you are a nascent realm cultivator. And with your status, we should respect you as an elder…" Yao Mai said.

"A what? An elder? No way… no way, I'm not that old you know." Shin Jiao said while trying to reject the respect the two have for him.

"Okay, please… I'm still a young man. So let's just call each other as usual, okay?"

Seeing the low-key attitude of Shin Jiao the two women looks at each other and smiled. They truly didn't expect that they could meet such a person. They are truly happy about their luck. But before they can heave a sigh of relief, they suddenly noticed Shin Jiao showing an alarmed look on his face.

"It seems that we have some company… Geez… Why am I always so unlucky?" Shin Jiao muttered as he stood up and walked out of the carriage.

"Wait, Master Ji… Don't go… out of…" Song Xie wanted to say but stopped as she found that Shin Jiao has already jumped out of the carriage.

From inside the carriage, the two saw him falling directly towards two flying cultivators wearing leather armors. When they saw the look on those two, they knew that the two are bandits.

"Will Master Ji be okay?" asked Song Xie with a tinge of concern.

"Don't worry… if he can fight against the vice-principal who is a 1st level nascent realm, then it would be easy for him to defeat those two."

And true to what Yao Mai has said Shin Jiao just passes by the two cultivators but on his hand, he already has their spatial tools and their bodies bisected into two.

Bang!!!

Shin Jiao landed on the ground with a loud sound interrupting the group of bandits which seems to be attacking a broken carriage. Then everyone saw four falling objects followed after.

Then the bandits noticed that those four are the part of their two comrades. This scene immediately angered the group and stopped attacking the people in the broken carriage. They turn their attention towards the new person and attacked him simultaneously.

Seeing their action Shin Jiao smirked and also began his attacks. He decided to take care of these people as he didn't want them following his trip and making more problems for him. He just wanted to travel safely towards the capital of the Er kingdom and then go to Yi City.

"Get him!"

"Kill that guy! He killed our brothers!" shouted the bandits as they brandish their swords and spells techniques.

However, before they can approach Shin Jiao he has already taken out his submachine gun and it began spewing out bullets. Each bullet hit their target accurately with the help of his contact lenses. This made it easy for Shin Jiao to dispose of the bandits in the area which dumbfounded the rest of the cultivators defending the carriage.

After he was done, he immediately goes around and gathers the spatial tools he can see.

While doing this, a man wearing a silver armor over his robe walked towards Shin Jiao.

"Brother, thank you for saving us…" he said while cupping his hands.

"Our young master wanted to see you." He said as he looks at Shin Jiao.

"Hmm… okay, lead the way." He said after picking up the last spatial pouch.

Shin Jiao then saw the carriage he was riding on landing not too far from the area. And the two women alighted from the carriage and hid it in Song Xie's ring.

Shin Jiao waited for the two to approach as he walked with them towards the broken down the carriage.

"Wait a minute… I… I know this insignia." Suddenly Song Xie muttered.

"It's the royal palace." Yao Mai answered.

Song Xie nodded her head.

When the three arrive in front of the broken carriage, they saw a young man lying on the ground with a deep gash on his stomach. When Song Xie saw the person, her eyes went wide in shock and her expression turned worried.

"Deming… Deming Er? How… how did this happen?" suddenly Song Xie cried as she ran towards the young man on the ground.

"Halt!" the guards immediately blocks her path.

She was surprised by didn't want them to stop her.

"It's okay, let her come." The young man she called Deming Er said to the guards.

When Song Xie was able to approach, she immediately held his hand and tears came rolling to her cheeks.

"How did this happen?" she said while sobbing.

Deming Er showed a helpless expression on his face. Song Xie was one of his friends in Floating Lotus Alchemy School. She was the one who is closed to his heart, in fact, he likes her. But he didn't say anything because he knew that she didn't know his true background. Plus it would cause her trouble if his enemies find out about her.

And so he kept a deep secret to her and his other friends in school.

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao and Yao Mei talk to the one who looks like the captain of the guards.

"What happened here?" Shin Jiao asked.

"Bandits attack…"

"Bandits? These people don't look like bandits… their equipment are too powerful and new." Shin Jiao said as he suddenly takes out a flying sword and shows it to the captain.

"Sigh… I knew that this was trouble."

"It seems that you are ambushed… How is your master doing?" Shin Jiao asked, but then frown upon seeing the wound on the young man's stomach.

"Hmmm… He is poisoned."

"Yes, but we already gave him some antidote…" the guard captain said.

"It's not working…"

What Shin Jiao said made the captain frown and turn to look at the young man. Then he suddenly realized that the young man looks pale and in pain.

"Damn it… How… What should I… No, I need to take him back to Alchema and find a cure."

"Wait, stop… I will cure his wound.. So don't worry…" Shin Jiao said as he knew of the terrible situation of the young man.
