The Geared Immortal

Chapter 596

(Unedited)

…

Silence envelops the whole room after the figure of that young man walks out of the door. And as soon as his figure disappears, Elder Ban felt his body slowly regaining his strength. But the recovery is very slow as if it is teasing him. This made him feel dismayed and a distraught feeling filled his heart.

He could not wait anymore and needed to escape least those demons that appear and kill him. As he concentrated, his hands slowly moved but it was so sluggish that it rendered him helpless. He didn\'t know how that young man did it, but he can feel his strength coming back in his body however, his movement is as slow as a snail.

He slowly grabs the first needle embedded in his body and slowly pulls it out. As he pulled a great pain immediately bombarded his senses.

He wanted to shout and howl in pain. However, no voice escaped his mouth.

Although in pain, the middle-aged man didn\'t give up. He didn\'t want to give up as he can already hear the loud sound of battle outside of his courtyard. The sound of destruction and the slight tremor on the ground made him feel afraid.

Soon he has already removed half of the needles, but his movement is still slow. He is currently removing a needle near his chest where a small dagger is embedded. He has a feeling that once he removes this needle, he could recover his movements.

However, something made him feel despair. And that is when the door of his courtyard suddenly burst open.

Baam!!!

A tall figure wearing a tattered black cloak soaked in blood stood at the entrance of the door. Behind him is a beautiful woman with a wide smile on her face. One side of her now cherry red lips is a trickle of red liquid and the middle-aged man knew that it was blood.

Suddenly the woman coughed and her complexion turned pale.

"Are you, okay?" the man said with a tone of concern in his voice.

The woman waves her hand and gestured for him to stop being concerned.

"We have pressing matters to finish. This place is a good place to cultivate my power. Finish your business as fast as you can." The woman said as she turns around and walked away.

When her figure left, the man\'s face immediately turned cold. He looks at the middle-aged man and slowly enters the room.

"You have cost me my life and my family… I never provoked anyone and it was your son who started everything. Now that he has paid for his crimes, it is time for you to pay yours." The man said as he strode forward.

However, he suddenly stopped after noticing something.

It seems that the middle-aged man is moving really slow and has a dagger in his chest. He also noticed that the old man is painstakingly removing a needed near that dagger. Plus on the side, he could see a secret compartment that is already open. And it seems that someone took the stuff of this Elder and run away.

"Hahaha… the heavens are helping me. You truly deserve your fate. I will have my revenge today…" Jiangxi Do said as he strode forward slowly savoring the fear-filled gaze of the man responsible for the pain in his heart.

He saw the middle-aged elder of his former sect successfully removing the needle and his movement seem to have recovered.

The elder immediately felt it and moved to the side dodging the figure of Jiangxi Do. But as soon as the elder was about to run out of the room, he stopped. His body was immediately assaulted with pain as he shivers.

"Haha… I will truly enjoy this." Jiangxi Do said as he grabs the sect elder\'s arm and with a wave of his hand chopped it off.

The elder was shaken but no words came out of his mouth as he just fell to the ground while clutching his arm and wriggling as his body felt pain all over.

"This is for me… and this is for my wife." Jiangxi Do said as he lifted one of his hands and chopped off the elder\'s other arm.

Blood spurted to the floor and began dying everything in crimson red.

"This is for my son…" he said and another limb came off.

"And this is for my daughter…"

The middle-aged elder wanted to pass out from the pain, but it seems that he could not. His consciousness would come and go as he could feel his life slowly ebbing away. Inside his heart, he could feel great regret. Regret for the things he did and for the atrocities he committed.

As he lay dying on the ground, his thoughts remember his son who died miserably in that forest. Upon remembering this, his heart was immediately filled with hatred towards the man. So instead of being regretful, he was filled with an unwillingness to die. If he could shoot fire from his eyes and burn that person he would gladly do it before dying.

But how could he?

Stepping on the chest of the limbless person on the ground, Jiangxi Do slowly drew closer.

"Your death is not enough payment for my family. I will kill each and everyone in this sect and purge them… that way, my children will be at ease. Their father has avenged them… Hehehe… Hahaha…" Jiangxi Du chuckled madly as he suddenly grabs the dagger and forcefully opens the chest of Elder Ban.

Then he grabs the still-beating heart and while looking at the horrified face of his mortal enemy, pulls it out and directly devours it in front of the elder.

With unwillingness in his eyes, Elder Ban felt his consciousness finally giving in as everything slowly turned black.

Meanwhile, the eyes of Jiangxi Do finally had a stream of red liquid coming out of them as if he is crying. Although he hungrily devours the heart, his expression is that of sadness and his emotion is hallowed.

He has exacted his revenge, but why… why is it that his heartfelt not reconciled. He knew that even after this, he could not see his two children anymore. Even his wife has changed and has turned into something else.

"Is this the life I wanted to live now?" he thought as he threw the rest of the blood-filled flesh on the ground in dejection.

As he turns around, he suddenly saw a figure which made him feel a bit confused. His wife is looking at him with desperation in her eyes.

Then his gaze went down to her stomach and he could see a whole chunk of flesh missing on that bloody hole.

Her figure then fell to the ground lifelessly.

As she fell another figure could be seen standing behind her. It was a figure of a young man with blood on one of his hands.

Judging from the expression of that person and his demeanor it seems that he is the one responsible for his wife\'s condition.

Immediately rage and anger filled his dark heart and the Dark Qi in his body began to boil.

Upon seeing this, Shin Jiao who is standing at the door showed a faint smile on his face. This is what he is waiting for, the accumulation of Dark Qi in that man\'s body.

With a flicker, Shin Jiao\'s figure disappears and rushes towards the front and he immediately grabs the ghoul\'s neck. But the ghoul did not hesitate to also grab Shin Jiao\'s neck with his bloody hand.

Jiangxi Do immediately exerted his strength to choke the man who attacked his wife. However, he soon discovers that the young man\'s flesh is like something made of very strong material. But what baffled him is that his strength which just erupted is currently waning. It was as if it is being absorbed by that man\'s hand.

And this situation made him feel afraid. He wanted to struggle, but it was all for naught. He could not even move his body now.

He just waited in there and he felt his consciousness becoming blurry. At that instant, he saw three figures standing, and behind them is a glowing bright light.

Suddenly one of the small figures said in a lovely voice which is very familiar to him.

"Father… let\'s go. We\'ve been waiting for you for a long time. We missed you, father!"

Then he saw the smiles on their face.

At that instant, Jiangxi Do didn\'t struggle anymore and let his consciousness fade as he found himself walking along with those three figures and enters the light.

Thud!!!

The now mummified looking corpse fell to the ground and Shin Jiao\'s figure felt his body brimming with the chaotic dark Qi.

"I need to refine this as soon as possible." He muttered as his gaze went towards the demon on the ground.

To his astonishment, the demon is nowhere to be found.

However, he was not worried, he knew of the situation of that demon. Plus, he already broke her Dark Qi field. Although she could recover, she could not absorb the dark Qi anymore and would become just like another beast in the forest.

He didn\'t waste his time and immediately run out of the sect\'s headquarters. He knew that the disturbance in this area has already attracted the other sect and would soon arrive in this place. He didn\'t want anyone finding him in this place by chance.

…

Two days have passed since that bloody battle and Shin Jiao is currently inside a carriage along with Bailao Di and Jie Ming. The two convinced Shin Jiao that they would go with him to the capital. They will be his guide and they would bring him to his family.

The two knew that Shin Jiao didn\'t have any memory of his family and also himself. As they have considered themselves as his friends, and him as their teacher. The two followed him to the capital of the empire.

Meanwhile, in the capital city, the Ji clan has received the news that the famous doctor Ji is coming back to the clan.

And inside a large room, a group of elderly men are currently facing each other in a heated discussion. In the middle of it all sat an old man with a furrowed brow. He himself knew of the truth, however, he could not pass this opportunity. Because this opportunity could make their clan rise up once again and regain their long lost power.

How to use this opportunity? That is the biggest problem they are currently facing.
