The Geared Immortal

Chapter 931

(Unedited)

…

Shin Jiao listened to the story about Gan Warbread which happened many years ago. He was a bit astounded by the Dark Grand Magus and his terrorizing of the Demon Gorge. In fact, in the last war, Gan Warbread has joined, but at that time his presence was not seen but only his influence.

But through his influence alone the battle was almost won. However, in the end, the stronger light mages have won the war.

But through this story, one could tell the true strength of the Dark Grand Magus. He is a force to be reckoned with.

"My name is Shin Jiao… Can I have yours?" Shin Jiao said with a smile.

When the woman heard this, she showed a slight frown on her face then lifted her head to look at Shin Jiao\'s eyes.

Upon doing this, she slightly shook her head.

"I won\'t tell you my name. You are not from around here… I don\'t like having a relationship with any man not from this place… But if you give me something that can gain my interest, then maybe... just maybe you can have me as your wife. I like to be feed and pampered, but do not interfere with my work..." She said as she walks towards the thickets.

Shin Jiao was a bit flabbergasted upon hearing the woman\'s words. He did not expect to hear such words. He just wanted to know her name, why would she think such a thing?

"I…" Shin Jiao wanted to explain, but the woman has already walked forward.

Shin Jiao decided to follow her from behind.

Meanwhile, in Zepa City, its surroundings are now filled with greeneries, the former dead city is now filled with life and there are many people entering the city.

Along with the life in the city also comes the technology that the Mystique Shop is spreading. The radio stations and relay antennas are being spread all over the inner kingdom. Except for the capital city, and other cities in the inner kingdom, the rest of the towns and villages around Zepa city, large improvements are happening.

The reason for this is because of the wide range of information drive that is being inserted in radios and the news broadcast.

Right at this moment, outside of the city, a couple of luxurious carriages could be seen entering the city.

A handsome and tall young man could be seen sitting inside and beside him is a middle-aged bearded man.

"Father,… will the Mystique Shop owner agree with our proposal?" the young man asked with a slight frown on his face.

"We do not know until we tried. I heard that the owner personally entered Zepa City and eliminate the threat of Duke Malin Guard. Though the royal family did not agree with his actions, yet they could not deny the fact that the city actually recovered from its former state."

"It is really inconceivable that a single man could do as such. We have sent many of our people to infiltrate and try to assassinate the Duke before, but it all failed. Now… I guess the city is back." The young man said with a slight melancholy in his eyes.

"Are you thinking about your sister?" the middle-aged man asked.

The young man nodded his head with melancholy and sadness in his eyes while looking at the busy streets while their carriage is passing.

He could remember many things in this place, both happy and sad memories while his sister is still alive. However, ever since that day, when they escaped from this city and went to another for fear of the Duke, he has never seen his sister again.

No news was heard from the city from then on and it began to rot from the inside and out.

But looking at the city which seems to have regained its vigor, those happy memories seem to have returned to him once again.

Suddenly, their carriage stopped and they heard someone arguing in the front.

"What is happening out there?" the middle-aged man asked.

"Master… Someone is causing trouble with the carriage ahead."

"Causing trouble, how audacious…" the middle-aged man said as he opened the door and walks out of his carriage.

As nobles of the inner kingdom, no one dares to cause trouble for them. They would always throw their weighs everywhere and no one would dare to fight against them.

The middle-aged man walks to the front carriage and saw another noble. When the middle-aged man saw the person upfront his expression changed. This is because he knew who that person is. That man is a noble from the house of Boujing from the capital city.

He is the current right-hand man of the house and is arrogant and overbearing.

Right at this moment, he is looking down at an old woman who is sitting on the ground while on that man\'s hand is a long whip.

The old woman is being protected by a young woman and both of them are wearing peasant\'s coarse clothing.

"How dare you stand on the way of my carriage! Do you know that we are nobles from the capital! Huh!" he shouted in an overbearing manner and suddenly lifted his hand to whip the young and the old women.

The old woman has already been whipped. This time the young woman just hugged the old woman and covered her with her own body.

But before the whip could land, a strong but slender hand stopped the noble.

"You might be a noble from the capital. But in here, your noble title would not work. In Zepa City we advocate neutrality. If you violate the law, either noble or not, we would prosecute you just like… any… normal… human… being…" the beautiful young woman said.

This young woman is Im Jae.

As she stood in front of the noble, her strength was evident and her beauty is tantalizing.

This made the man unable to say anything as he was dumbstruck for a moment.

"You… how dare you!" suddenly the nobleman pointed after he recovers from his stupor.

But before he could say anything, the middle-aged man amongst the crowd walks forward. He looks at the nobleman and then at the beautiful maiden.

From Im Jae\'s clothing, one could tell that she is someone not from this place. This is because; she likes to wear cultivator clothing from the immortal land.

"Mousan Boujing, it seems that the house of Boujing is still throwing their weights around without knowing the law…" he said with a smile.

When the man named Mousan Boujing heard this he immediately turns towards the middle-aged man. When he saw who the middle-aged man is, he showed a surprised expression.

"You… you are Chancellor Yom Alreed… Why… why is the Chancellor from Wanting City here?" Mousan Boujing asked with slight doubtful eyes.

However, upon remembering what he was doing, the man was a bit flustered.

"Chancellor, this… this old woman suddenly stood on the street and is blocking our path. I just taught her a little lesson." He said with a fawning smile.

"Hmm… Very well, but you must remember. This is not the capital city. Zepa City has its own rules now and this conforms and has agreed upon by the king." Yom Alreed said as he slowly bends down and helped the old woman and the young woman.

"I am sorry… he is a noble from the capital and this is normal in that place. Here, this is for your medical fees and injuries. I hope you can forgive him…" Yom Alreed said while handing a single gold coin to the young woman.

Seeing the coin, the young woman\'s mind turns blank. She did not know whether to accept this gold coin or not.

But a slender hand suddenly grabs the coin and then stuffs it in the young woman\'s hand.

"Just accept it. Next time, be very careful and assist your grandmother when crossing the road." Im Jae said while patting the young woman\'s shoulder.

The two walk to the side and the young woman helped her injured grandmother as they walk towards the direction of the clinic.

"This young woman is chivalrous and kind. May I know your name?" Yom Alreed asked.

"Hmm… I am Im Jae, thank you for what you did, sir." Im Jae replied.

Then suddenly a handsome young man walks forward while extending his hand.

"I\'m Zixu Alreed, and this is my father Yom Alreed…" the young man said while shaking Im Jae\'s small hands.

When Im Jae saw the face of the young man, she could not help but look at him for a slightly long time. This is because she found his face a little familiar.

With a slight difference in his hair, nose, and eyes, this guy seems to resemble Shin Jiao a little bit when he was in the immortal land. And this made her unconsciously look at him.

Her gaze at this time made his heart almost skipped a beat.. Seeing the beautiful young woman in front of him looks at him like that, Zixu Alreed could not help but feel a little flustered.
