The Geared Immortal

Chapter 517

/*unedited*/

The episode in the restaurant came to an end with Qian Li visiting the station of the men in green. She went to her apartment with a heavy feeling in her heart. She has already thought about this scene in her mind after waking up and didn't expect that what she has thought of came true.

It seems that her master truly loves that woman.

Qian Li thought as she enters the room with heavy footsteps. She was too tired to think of anything else right now as her heart was too heavy and her mind aches when thinking. Then she suddenly turns around and headed towards her closet.

She stopped while her eyes are pinned on a protrusion on the side of the closet. She didn't move and just stayed in that position for almost 5 minutes as her eyes didn't even blink while looking at that area.

Deep in her thoughts, she can recall a lot of things from the past. Her struggles and, her hopes… She had an optimistic personality and was deemed as the princess heir of the kingdom even though she is not a cultivator. However one night, she discovers that her father was disappointed at her for being a mere mortal, a… trash.

And after that, everything turned dark in her life. She escaped, became poor, and begged, then she was caught and was turned into a slave. In her desperation, she wanted to kill herself and be done with her useless life.

But then one day, a new light appear and gave her another hope in life. It was in the form of a handsome young knight. He was dazzling; he was the sun and the moon for her and she called him her master. And his name is Shin Jiao, the very person who gave her a second chance in life.

And not only that, he gave her a chance to grow and become stronger and more powerful than she can ever imagine.

But this happiness was shattered once again when she fell in love with him. This is because his heart only belongs to one woman. She would have accepted it even if she became a second wife or even as a concubine. As long as she can have him, hug him, and make love with him. But no… it seems that fate is a bit cruel towards her.

She gave up… she wanted to accept her fate as just his subordinate and nothing more. But then, it happened… he was gone. That was the time that she knew that she cannot give him up.

For years she waited and waited and finally found a chance to be with him once again. But it was still short-lived. But still, she received some semblance of love from him. But because of that cruel fate, her heart was broken into pieces.

She was angry? Yes, she truly was angry… But, to whom? To the man she loves? No… she loves him how could she?

No… She was angry with those who took him from her. She was angry with those who separated them both. He was hers in the first place. She was loyal to him. She was about to do something… but then, he died.

He sacrificed himself for those who didn't even value him. He sacrificed himself to those people who live their lives normally even after he is gone. She abhors them, she is angry at them all. She was angry that he was taken from her.

Qian Li's eyes are now filled with tears as resentment filled her eyes.

"I will not let you be taken from me, ever again…" she muttered as she presses the button on the wall and a small door open.

Then, her eyes have a glint of killing intent in them as she strode forwards entering the dark tunnel as her figure vanished while the secret door closes behind her.

…

The old main path to the San kingdom, midnight

In a dark forest path, a huge caravan is resting after a long day of travel. This path has already been abandoned by the kingdom of Yi due to the existence of the hover vehicles, but some poor people still use this path to go to other villages and towns.

These groups would form groups and would travel in a caravan to protect themselves from the beasts in the forest or along the path.

Right at this moment, a young man is currently traveling with a young woman on tow. The young woman seems to be sleeping ever since they started traveling.

A middle-aged man walked towards the carriage of the young man while carrying two bowls of food.

"Young lad, here is the dinner for tonight. We are glad that you provided us with enough money to buy some food these few days, I hope that you enjoy the dishes made by my humble wife." The middle-aged man said with a smile.

The young man nodded his head and smile.

It has already been a week since he traveled with this group and they have been to some villages. To not inconvenience him from preparing food, he decided to give this couple some money and made them prepare meals for him.

He could not deny the fact that the meals cooked by that man's wife are truly appetizing. Hence he was satisfied.

After the young man ate his fill, he looks at the woman sleeping inside the carriage and smiled. He has painstakingly planned this out and was successful with the help of that person. If not, then how can he approach that group?

The handsome face of the young man became gentle as he slowly caressed the hair of the beautiful young woman lying unconscious on the bed.

"They can never separate us… ever. I will love you and only you. I swear deep in my heart that I will not let you be hurt or be at a disadvantage ever… I… I love you…" he muttered.

When the man turns his head, his handsome appearance can be seen by the flickering light of the bonfire no far from his carriage.

"Shin Jiao… even though both of us have the same face and the same name. Why is our fate not the same? Why am I below you? Why do you have everything and I didn't?" he muttered as he gripped tightly at a stick turning it into powder.

"I already have my strength now… who would dare to bully me? If I step into the nascent realm then I Shin Jiao would become unstoppable." He thought as a sinister smile escaped his handsome face.

Then a dark and gloomy aura suddenly seeps out of his body. This dark and powerful aura slowly calms down as it returns inside the body of Shin Jiao.

However, this aura was felt by many of the creatures in the forest for miles away. And those beasts that felt it felt a shiver running down their spine. They can feel that the aura is too domineering and sinister that they all cower and run far away from the direction it came from.

But their eyes are glued to that place as they didn't want that creature to devour them unprepared.

Shin Jiao, on the other hand, sat close leg in the driver seat of the carriage and began cultivating. As it is night time, it was the best time to cultivate his newfound technique. And this is the reason why his cultivation grew to such an extent.

As he closes his eyes, he suddenly heard a voice inside his head.

"Ah… you have grown to such a strong person… after you reach the nascent realm. You will not fear anyone else in this world. Not even those World Nascent cultivators would be your match. Remember to practice diligently our cultivation practice. As my disciple, you should not shame the name of the Dark Lord." The voice said in an eerie tone.

"Yes, master… I will not shame the name of the Dark Lord." Shin Jiao said as his consciousness floated within the void of his mind space.

"Now, it seems that you have a new enemy. And it looks like he has the same face as you… is he the one you told me when I first met you?" the eerie voice asked.

"Yes, master… he is the so-called… hero… of the cultivation land."

"Ah… that young person from back then that defeated the youngest disciple of the Lord."

"Yes… that's the person."

"Hmm… I guess you have to practice even more. As of now, your strength is not yet sufficient to fight against that person. However, I will try to ask the dark lord to send a soul into your world…"

"Wait… No matter. I will face my enemy by myself. I will crush that person with my own hands."

"Haha… Okay… I understand. However, to be able to do that… You must break through to the nascent realm and receive the baptism and become a devil born."

"I understand master…" Shin Jiao said.

In his memories, he recalled the hardship that he faced while escaping Shin City and entering the dark forest mountain within the boundary of the Yi and San kingdom. And from there he stumbles upon a dark cave.

At that time, he thought he would die as his figure has many wounds on his body from beast attacks. His gold core cultivation level was even destroyed by those beasts. Hence he felt helpless and wanted to die. He felt so powerless and desperate.

That was until he heard an eerie voice calling him from deep within the cave.

He crawled and he clawed his way inside and made a bloody path, a literal bloody path towards the dark underground tunnel.

And from then on, his fate was changed as his body was cleansed and baptized by dark flames of hell, and his strength increase by leaps and bound.

He now truly believes in the great myth of fortuitous encounter and it happened to him.

"With this power… I will have my revenge. I will only have you… my love.." He said as a smirk appears on his slowly changing feature.
