The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1336

…

Inside the carriage, Xin Ja closes his eyes as he tried to recover his Ki. Master Yo who is driving the carriage, looks at him with a scrunched brow as he suddenly noticed the strange disturbance in the chaotic Ki in the air.

It is known that the chaotic Ki could not be absorbed as it causes one to be unable to control their dantian and would corrupt their cultivation.

However, for some reason, he could sense that the young man before him could actually cultivate the chaotic Ki in the air.

Upon realizing this, he looked at Xin Ja agape as he could not control the rapid beating of his heart.

If someone could actually cultivate the chaotic Ki in the air, then that would mean that the person does not need to trade or buy any Ki stones or materials for absorbing pure Ki. With this, one\'s cultivation would become limitless.

As he looks at the disturbance in the air he could only feel awed by the youth before him.

"I guess he surely is one unique fellow…" he muttered as he shifted his gaze at the front.

After traveling for a while, they soon arrived near a crossroad.

"The young miss should be here…" he muttered as he slowed down the carriage.

He then noticed something in the leaves as he suddenly turns the carriage as it enters the foliage. He got off and then waved his hand to cover their tracks.

The carriage soon arrives near a small cave.

"Master Yo! Master Xin!" a young voice called and Rong Guan appears to meet the two.

He leads Xin Ja and Master Yo inside the cave where the grand elder of the Ao family and Ao Meixi are sitting around a stone table.

"Young Miss, grand elder!" the two greeted the two people inside.

"Master Yo, Master Xin… I\'m sorry that the two of you were implicated in such a conundrum for the Ao family… And I also thank you for helping my niece…" the old man said with a sad tone.

"Uncle, as long we have you with us, everything is okay…" Ao Meixi said with a smile.

"Hmm… I might be able to hold them for a while, but if their expert would surely make their move, then even I would not be able to stop them… I suggest that we escape this place…" the grand elder suggested.

The grand elder of the Ao family is named, Ao Jixo. He is the young brother of the patriarch and also the remaining kin of Ao Meixi after the extermination of their family those years ago.

At that time, he was out and has just returned. But when he learned of the death of the Ao family members, he could not help but be saddened.

He spends his days in sadness and because of his grief and desire for revenge… he has broken through and became a Ki-Champion.

He knew that if only he has the same power as what he has today, then the Ao family would not have been wiped out.

He could only lament their misfortune and bury the hatred in his heart.

But now that the Lei clan made their move once again, he now knows that the real culprit those years ago might truly be the Lei clan. They seem to be looking for something in the Ao family and suspected that it was an heirloom of the family.

But no matter how hard Ao Jixo thinks about it, he could not remember an heirloom of their family that is of importance.

Their family came from a poor background and his elder brother has worked hard to bring the family to their current status through his acumen in business, and what their parents left them in a dilapidated house, and nothing else.

So no matter what, they did not have anything that is of value that has not been taken by those culprits those years ago.

"Uncle, let\'s just leave… As long as we are alive, then we could have a future…" she said as she held the Ao Jixo\'s hand.

Feeling the concern of his niece, he feels that what she is saying is the logical thing to do.

"Alright, let\'s leave this place and go to Rock Ledge city… In that place we can start a new…" he said with a nod of his head.

Rock Ledge city is a city near the edge of the kingdom of Radong. The city is small, but they are still a city that could join the alchemist association of the Radong kingdom contest.

If they can get a place in the contest, even though it would only be at the top 100, then they could get a footing in the city.

If the Ao family could have an alchemist belonging to the top 100, then their shops would be known in the city and they could start a business in that place.

That is actually her original goal, that\'s why she was truly interested in Xin Ja\'s ability.

"Hmm… If we… I mean, if we really will go to the city, I think it is better if we go separately. Young miss, we will be the decoy, and you and the grand elder should go there stealthily…" Xin Ja suggested.

Then he began to tell them his plan on how they could pull off this trick.

The next day…

A carriage belonging to the young miss left the cave and then another carriage also left 30 minutes after. The carriage went to different routes, but their destination is only one.

At this time, a man wearing a dark aura watches as the carriage bearing the Ao family insignia appears in his sight.

When he saw this, he sneered as he did not bother with it.

He knew that such a thing would happen, so he decides to wait for a while.

"Go and follow that carriage…" he commanded at the people on his side.

Then they all rush out.

30 minutes later…

Another carriage without an insignia appears.

When he scanned the driver, he was a bit astonished as the driver is actually a woman. He frowned for a bit but decided to make his move.

His figure flashes and suddenly appears in the middle of the road. His imposing aura enveloped his surrounding as he glares at the carriage.

"Why are you blocking our path?" an angry woman shouted as he glared at the man.

"I am from the Lei clan. We are searching for someone… I suggest you cooperate!" the man said in a low voice.

He suddenly exerted his aura and covered the surroundings.

He might not have developed his domain even though he is already a Ki-Champion, but his aura alone is already enough.

Feeling the aura of the man the woman frowned.

She wanted to scold, but a young and dainty hand appears and held her shoulder.

"Do not be impulsive… This fellow is just doing his business…" an old voice could be heard from inside the carriage.

Then the cloth partition of the carriage opens and the figure of Aunt Jing walked out. She looks at the man before her and showed a faint smile.

"Are you trying to bully us because we are all women in here?" she asked with a playful tone.

However, when the man saw the old woman, his heart has already skipped a beat and his forehead is covered with beads of sweat. Who did not know who this old woman is in the territory of Aewa city where the Jade Treasure Box merchant house is situated?

According to the rumors in the higher-ups, the An family has several Ki-Champions protecting them. And one of them is an old woman, who is not actually old. She just likes to pretend to be an old woman. But what is scary about her is not only her ability as a medical master but also her eccentric personality and her slightly short temper.

So… when the man saw the old woman, he could not help but shake his head and swallow a mouthful of saliva.

"Miss Jing… This one is blind and did not know that I would be meeting you here…" he suddenly said and bowed his head.

"Hehe… I\'m guessing you are from that little brat\'s family… the Lei clan. Tell your young master to mind his own business from now on and stop this pointless thing he is doing. What he is looking for is already in our hands… Hihi…" she said with a chuckle.

When the man heard this he suddenly frown and then lifted his head.

Then he saw the carriage continue traveling, and then he showed a deep frown on his face.

…

Inside the carriage, two people are present with grateful expressions on their faces.

"Well, little lady of the Ao family… You don\'t have to worry about anything anymore." Aunt Jing said with a smile.

Ao Jixo cupped his hand and thanked Aunt Jing.

"The Ao family will be forever in your debt."

"Uncle you are too kind. This exchange is very important for me. What Miss Ao has given us is far greater than we expected…" the pretty An Xensu waved her hands.

She now held the map made of a powerful cultivator\'s skin in her hand, and if this map is correct, then the value of such a map is enough for them to help the Ao family get a footing once again in the society.
