The Geared Immortal

Chapter 711

(Unedited)

…

A beautiful woman walks in front, while she puts one of her hand on her bulging stomach and the other one supporting her back. This woman is the wife of blacksmith Hans, Lyn Xuan.

Just like Hans Jung, Lyn Xuan is only a servant. But she was able to live in the inner part of the town because of her husband being a good blacksmith. Their family lived a good life and everything was fine. They are earning enough for their everyday living.

She has already lived in the immortal land for almost 200 years. Though her physique is good, her attainment in absorbing the universe\'s energy is truly pitiful. This is also the reason why her master abandoned her and let her marry Hans Jung.

The couple lived a happy life and they were blessed with a talented daughter. At the mere age of 20, their daughter Eva Jung has already reached level 65. And a few months ago, she discovers that she is pregnant with their second child. So the family is really happy.

But a few months ago, some trouble suddenly happened and this turned their happy lives upside-down.

And now, it seems that she knew why it happened. Some noble is actually eyeing her daughter. And this is a threat to their family. She wanted to protest, she wanted to fight back, but what could a mere servant do?

However, at this desperate time, a young man suddenly approached her with a proposal. A proposal which made her a bit surprised.

The young man proposes to pay all of their debts and the rent for 3 years. All he wanted is a small room on the side portion of the shop, and some peace and quiet.

At first, she thought that it was almost like an impossible thing to happen. But she could tell that the young man is sincere. Hence she immediately agrees.

"Wait…" Lyn Xuan said as he walks in front of the town protectors.

She then handed them a bag and nodded her head. Then she walked towards the young man whom she already noticed standing amongst the crowd.

"You said that we still owe you 1,000 energy cores right?" she said as she takes out a note and then handed the young man another bag along with the note.

Everyone was dumbfounded by her action and did not react even after she walked beside her husband who is also looking at her with a dumbfounded expression on his face.

"How? How could this be? No! This is not happening! How could you poor bloke get so much money? Did you steal? Hahaha… hey you three arrest them! They stole some energy cores… you should do your job!" among the crowd, Grim Mills suddenly shouted with disbelief clearly written all over his face.

He is already there, he only needs a little push and he could get that innocent beauty. But who would have known that his plan would be foiled just like that?

He did not want to accept this result, so he was truly incensed. His eyes are darting all over the place trying to see who was the culprit that dares to stand in his way? Those people who meet his eyes would immediately lower their gazes as they did not want to offend him.

They knew how unreasonable Grim Mills is and how he was a big bully in this part of the streets. So they dare not stand in his way.

As he searches his surroundings, his eyes suddenly saw a figure that seems different from the rest. Although he looks low-key and is hiding within the crowd, he could feel that this person is not afraid of him.

"He is the bastard that is helping them? How dare he cross me?" he thought as he glared at the figure of Shin Jiao.

Although Shin Jiao is hiding amongst the crowd, he is actually not afraid of the young man. So when their eyes met, he just looks at him with an expressionless face.

"You!" Grim Mills shouted as he pointed towards Shin Jiao\'s location.

With an imposing manner, he strode in front of Shin Jiao who was also a bit taken aback. Though he wanted to hide his presence, yet Shin Jiao is not someone who also folds when someone challenges him. At the very least he could just beat this pompous young man up to teach him some lesson.

Right now everyone is currently looking at Shin Jiao with confusion in their eyes. But he did not mind those looks; he is a bit apprehensive towards the two young men behind the arrogant one pointing at him. Those two have a power level of around 78; they are both gold armored protectors.

While looking at them, Shin Jiao did not hesitate and immediately prepares himself for a fight.

Grim Mills put both of his hands on his waist and arrogantly glared at Shin Jiao. He looks closely at the young man and could see that his physique is a bit weird. Now that he is standing up close to the young man, he could now see his fluctuating power level.

Grim could tell that this young man is only around 70-74 in power level, so he is not worried. Though he only has the power level of a peasant, yet his background is very strong that many are afraid to offend him. Even those gold armored protector would think twice before making a move on him.

So upon seeing that Shin Jiao is this weak, his confidence rose up.

"Do not dare challenge me, or you will know the consequence…" Grim said with a grin.

By this time, those three protectors already got the gist of the situation and immediately turn around and left. They did not want to involve themselves in this petty squabble.

As the three left, Grim saw their figures in the corner of his eyes and sneered. However, what Shin Jiao said next made him thoroughly inraged.

"I advise you to stop bothering me… peasant…"

Those words from Shin Jiao did not only make Grim angry, but everyone in the surroundings was stunned. They did not expect that the young man would call the young master who is a well-known bully in the area… a peasant.

It was really insulting to the part of Grim Mills who is prideful and a bully.

Upon hearing this, Grim did not hesitate and immediately took some action.

"You want to die! Then die!" Grim Mills shouted as he sent Shin Jiao a powerful punch.

If Shin Jiao is a peasant like Grim Mills, then he would be worried about this powerful punch. However, Shin Jiao someone who could contend with an immortal wearing a piece of gold armor, so how could he fear that punch that looks powerful on the outside.

He just raises his left hand and using his index finger, stopped the incoming punch.

Seeing this scene everyone gasped in disbelief. But those with a higher level of power already expected as such.

But they did not move yet as Shin Jiao did not harm the young man.

"You!" Grim Mills glared at this provocation and immediately jumps back.

Then from his hand there appear a long sword.

When the people saw this, a gasping sound was once again heard in the crowd. This is because; they knew that Grim Mills is actually using the rare spatial tool. Though many in the crowd knew about spatial tools which are somewhat common outside of the immortal land, they knew that in this place, spatial magic is very rare.

Only those in the higher-ups could use spatial tools, plus it is even harder to create one.

Hence seeing Grim Mills using a spatial tool thoroughly astounded the crowd. And this reaction made Grim Mills feel his ego being boosted. With a glare towards Shin Jiao, he suddenly rushed towards him while using a skill.

"Tornado blade!" Grim Mills shouted as he suddenly appears in front of Shin Jiao as if he suddenly teleported.

Then he swings his sword and created hundreds of sword images around himself. Sharp gales of sword images surround his body and many of them look like buzzsaw spinning towards Shin Jiao.

As those spinning sword images got closer towards him, Shin Jiao\'s eyes squinted and with a quick move, he used his shadow step and immediately disappear.

Grim and the crowd was all stunned. They did not know what just happened as the young man is now gone.

However, before they can recover, they saw the figure of Shin Jiao appearing next to Grim Mills inside the eye of the spinning sword images. And before Grim Mills could react, he suddenly feels a sharp pain on his neck as he was struck and fainted.

The spinning blades banished into thin air and a sword fell to the ground with a loud… clang!

This resulted in the attention of those two young men that are supposed to be protecting Grim to recover their senses and immediately made their move.

"You dare!" one of them shouted while rushing towards Shin Jiao like a gust of wind.

He threw a punch containing around 70% of his power. With his cultivation, he knew that if the young man is hit by his punch, then the young man would surely suffer. That\'s what he gets for offending their young master.

Everyone could hear the roaring wind as his punch drew closer towards Shin Jiao who stood in place and watches the large fist coming towards him.

However, before that fist could hit him, Shin Jiao suddenly shifted to the left and easily dodged the attack. He then countered with a simple palm slash which his attacker also dodges.

The two of them suddenly began exchanging blows with each of them not moving from their own spot and just threw punch and kicks with counters and blocks.

Everyone looks at this spectacle which looks like a martial arts show in everyone\'s eyes.

Meanwhile, the other young man is now a bit apprehensive of Shin Jiao. He knew that their opponent is not that simple. He might look like a person with a power level of a silver armored protector, but as he is able to contend with someone with gold armor, then he might be as powerful as them.

Hence he did not hesitate anymore and immediately takes out his spear and suddenly rushed to deliver a fatal sneak attack behind Shin Jiao.
