The Geared Immortal

Chapter 461 - The City Of Dongxi (2)

Chapter 454

/*unedited*/

A glimmering black barrel is pointing at Shin Jiao's direction. The main existence of the weapon alone is making all the people in the area feel a bit jittery. All are not aware of the existence of guns in this kingdom as the kingdom of Si has not fully accepted the changes in the whole empire.

But of course, some of those powerful families are already aware of such a thing especially the merchants. Hence Ji Zhuang and Fifi Lao had a mixed expression on their faces, fear, surprise, and worry is interchanging as they glance at the man.

Bang!!!

The loud explosion like the sound of booming thunderclap reverberated through the air as Mr. Wei pulled the trigger.

He didn't hesitate as he felt the bloodthirst in his heart. He wanted to try this weapon to a powerful person and since he found one he didn't hesitate. He is feared in the city and knew that even those officials in the city could not stop him. And now once they knew that he holds a powerful artifact in his hand, he would become unstoppable that even those powerful clans in the city would respect him.

The speeding bullet went pass through the air and directly flew to Shin Jiao's heart.

A sneer appears on Mr. Wei's mouth as the smoke from the rifle he is holding began to ooze out of the long barrel.

However, his face slowly changes color as he noticed that the supposed bloody scene did not happen. In fact, what he saw was his bullet passing through an after image.

His heart jolted as he suddenly leaped out of his carriage and stood his ground in a fighting stance. A rifle on one hand and a sword appearing on the other, he spreads his spiritual sense to find Shin Jiao's figure.

And then he saw a blur appearing behind him and he immediately dodge to the right while pointing his rifle towards Shin Jiao's direction beside him.

Bang!!!

Another thunderclap sound echoed through the air. But this time, it was followed by a loud cry.

Yearrghh!!!

"My… my arm! My arm!" a shrill cry coming from another carriage followed by a bloody scene.

Ji Zhuang who was watching the fight was accidentally hit by the bullet as Shin Jiao dodge the attack from Mr. Wei. Although in pain, Ji Zhuang suddenly took out his sword artifact and immediately brandishes it towards Mr. Wei.

He was too focused on finding Shin Jiao's figure that he didn't notice the direction of the barrel aiming at him. Luckily he was able to shift his body a little and it was just his left arm that was blasted. If not, then he would have already been a corpse.

Seeing the flying sword coming towards him Mr. Wei immediately took out his defensive treasure and the thin Qi field covering his body becomes thicker.

Peng!!!

The sword was deflected as it flew back to Ji Zhuang's hand.

"Mr. Wei, I will make you pay for my arms!" shouted Ji Zhuang in anger.

Mr. Wei could not retort as he admits that it was his mistake, but he could not put his guard down and reply as he is putting his concentration in finding Shin Jiao's figure which seems to be everywhere.

Suddenly in the corner of his eyes, a clever glint appears and he suddenly pointed the rifle towards the direction of Wen Mo Yang.

"Your companion can die first!" he muttered with a sinister gleam in his eyes.

Bang!!!

Another shot towards Wen Mo Yang's direction and the latter lifted the shield on her hand to block the incoming bullet. Seeing this Mr. Wei sneers and watches as the bullet hits the shield.

Peng!!!

The glowing bullet from his rifle was easily deflected by the shield and its aura.

But before Mr. Wei can react he suddenly felt a pang of pain on his arm holding the rifle. Then he saw his arm along with the rifle falling down the ground.

He wasn't able to react not until blood began to spurt out of his amputated limb.

Aaahh!!!

No!!!

He shouted as he grabs his amputated arm, however, he sounds found himself feeling darkness enveloping his sense. Then a slight pain on his neck made him silent. He wanted to hold his neck but he could not move his arms anymore. Then he found himself falling to the ground and his vision rolling. A headless body was the last thing he saw before his vision faded.

Shin Jiao easily decapitated Mr. Wei, the famous black market merchant in Dongxi city. He was once a feared man in the city and has terrorized a lot of people especially the mortals. But now that he is dead along with his bodyguards turning into cripples, it would be a happy day for those he had oppressed.

Seeing that Shin Jiao can easily dispose of a gold core expert with a powerful artifact, Ji Zhuang and Fifi Lao are now afraid.

When Shin Jiao turns his gaze towards Ji Zhuang his forehead is already covered in sweat. He seems to not have felt the pain of losing an arm right at this moment.

"Wait! Wait! I… I am from the Zhuang clan. You cannot touch me." Ji Zhuang said with a trembling tone.

He wanted to hide inside the carriage or become tiny so that the scary man could not find him. He was a bit reluctant to let go of the artifact but his life is far more important. In his mind, he would get the support of his clan to teach the young man a lesson once he came home.

Right at this moment all of his guards are already crippled and cannot fight, he is the only one left. So he is really scared now.

Shin Jiao sneered and suddenly bend forward.

"Master Ji, wait!" Wen Mo Yang called already feeling afraid that Shin Jiao would kill the young master of the Zhuang clan.

The Zhuang clan has too many experts in their clan and if Shin Jiao offends them, she didn't know if he can survive. So she didn't want him to be in trouble.

"Master Ji, please let this pass… I don't think they can fight us anymore." She advised while holding Shin Jiao's hand.

Seeing Shin Jiao relaxing a bit, Ji Zhuang and Fifi Lao heave a long sigh. They were really afraid of the young man who moves like the death god. His strange fighting technique and the black blade in his hand, that would only appear when he attacks, is truly scary.

However, they didn't want to give up. They already discovered that the young man might be a walking treasure trove so once they reported back to their clans, they would gain great rewards.

Shin Jiao just shook his head as he knew that if he let the two go it would mean trouble. However, he is not worried. With his strength, it would be easy for him to defeat anyone. However, he wanted to teach Wen Mo Yang a very valuable lesson later.

And so, the walked towards the corpse of Mr. Wei and took his spatial tools. No one dared stop him as he and Wen Mo Yang walked towards the city.

"You can have that shield... It's for your own protection..." Shin Jiao said as he calmly walks while Wen Mo Yang followed behind with a complicated expression.

Not long later, the two enter the city with ease because of Wen Mo Yang's identity. Shin Jiao can see the difference between the big city and the small town. Although it is an ancient city, the area is still really big and the people are numerous.

He walked with Wen Mo Yang towards the Xilu Academy.

"This is my school… I have to report to the school now… do you want to come with me?" Wen Mo Yang said with a tinge of blush in her face.

She didn't know how her classmates would react if they found her walking with a handsome man, so she was a bit expectant.

But to her dismay, Shin Jiao shook his head and wanted to find the portal and gather more information about it.

"I still have a lot of things to do… See you next time then." He said as he patted her shoulder.

His gentle demeanor and action made Wen Mo Yang blush more, but Shin Jiao just laughs it off as a young woman's infatuation.

After his figure left, Wen Mo Yang enters the academy with a heavy heart and a bit reluctant. Although her travel with Shin Jiao was short, she was able to know such a kind, low-key, and powerful young man. Plus he is not as haughty as those young masters she knew.

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao began to walk all over the busy places of the city and gather more information. When he reached the teleportation portal he found that it was not functional. To his dismay, he just walks towards an inn and tries to think of what to do next.

"I can try to analyze the portal though." He thought.

But he didn't want to act on it yet.

Shin Jiao rented a room in an inn and once inside the room he locks it tight.

Upon sitting on the bed, Shin Jiao touches his temple.

Then a word pops up from his sight.

'Test complete… initializing retinal scan. Auto balancing and sight correction complete…'

Then to the upper right side of his vision, he can see his body status, cultivation level, amount of Qi and mana within the spheres in his dantian, and all the other things inside his dantian. The essences he has collected and a mysterious black aura which seems to be in slumber inside of his body.

As of now, he is already aware of the essences he was able to collect, but the black thing is vague in his mind.. If he remembers it correctly it called the black dragon.
