The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1278

(Unedited)

…

The commotion in the lobby has already alerted a few Generals and high-ranking officers in the headquarters but none of them wants to interfere as they have already recognized the person who is being targeted by the bullying.

How could they not know who that person is and his capability?

The reason why most officers in this place do not know of him is that his identity is top secret.

Bam!!!

The figure of Xin Bin flew back hitting the others behind him like a bowling pin as he remains flying until he hit the wall.

But he was still able to put up his Ki field and protect himself from that dangerous situation. If he was a bit slow, then he would have already died back then.

"Lesson number two is parrying and guiding…" Xin Ja said while looking at what happened.

At this time Xin Bin is already enraged.

"You despicable bastard!" Xin Bin shouted while pointing at Xin Ja.

Xin Ja showed a confused expression as he looks at the guy.

"I\'ve noticed that you\'ve been targeting me with your shout for a while now. I am not the one hitting you but him… Why vent your anger at me?" Xin Ja said while shaking his head.

"You son of a…" the man who attacked Xin Bin turned his attention to Xin Ja and then attacked again.

A slight smirk once again appears on Xin Ja\'s mouth as he suddenly uses one hand to parry and guides the incoming fist towards a person that suddenly appears behind him.

That person was about to grab Xin Ja when he suddenly discovered a black smoking palm.

Bam!!!

The guy was hit squarely on his chest and was knocked to the ground rolling helplessly.

"Get him! Surround him now!" shouted Xin Bin in his anger.

"I don\'t have any qualms with you people… But if you push me further, you will surely regret it!"

But how could Xin Bin listen to his words when he is already looking like a frenzied beast.

"Lesson number three is when attacked by many opponents…" Xin Ja said as he looks at the first person who attacked him.

The guy rushes at him with his fist drawn back to strike Xin Ja\'s body.

Whoosh!!!

The sound of air could be heard as the guy\'s Ki-covered fist flew forward.

But Xin Ja seem to be able to predict his attacking trajectory that he was able to easily dodge to the side and then extended his index finger and hit a couple of acupoints in the man\'s body in almost an instant.

At the tip of his index finger is a thin Ki an inch long.

Before he could take a breather, another person has already attacked him from behind giving him a strong roundhouse kick.

But Xin Ja was able to feel his presence and quickly leaned back letting that guy\'s leg pass on top of his leaning body. While doing so, his finger has already extended and hit the man\'s leg acupoints.

Then he moved and hit a couple of the man\'s body acupoints.

The last to attack him was the man who is using his palm to strike.

Xin Ja decided to use his fast speed to suddenly appear behind the man\'s back and then hit a couple of the man\'s back acupoints.

It only took a few seconds in that battle and the three junior officers had already fallen to the ground as Xin Ja appear at the place where he previously stood.

"... then trash them thoroughly..." Xin Ja finishes his words.

"Alright, since the henchmen are gone, it\'s time for the leader to face the music…" Xin Ja then turns to Xin Bin.

"You… What are you thinking? My father… your uncle will not forgive you if you hurt me…" Xin Bin suddenly said.

Suddenly, Xin Ja stopped in his tracks and scrutinized the young man.

"You… are my cousin? Then why do you attack me? Is this how the Xin family treats their own kin?" Xin Ja suddenly asked in confusion.

"No wonder, my father would not want to go back to the clan… No wonder Uncle Xin Han would prefer to spend his time with us… The Xin clan is too despicable…" Xin Ja muttered.

"Stop spouting nonsense young man… The Xin clan is a noble existence…" a high-ranking officer suddenly step forward while glaring at Xin Ja.

He nodded at Xin Bin then glared back at Xin Ja.

"Hahaha… Noble? What a funny word…"

"You…" the high-ranking officer suddenly lifted his Ki-covered hand to strike Xin Ja.

"Enough!…" shouted someone freezing the air.

As that person walks, everyone parted.

They all saluted as he walks forward.

"Col. Xin!" the high-ranking officer saluted.

Xin Han looks coldly at the guy then looks at his insignia.

"So this is what you guys have been doing while I was gone…" Xin Han sneered.

He suddenly grabbed that man\'s insignia and then tore it off.

"From now on, you are demoted back to being a junior officer until you know the true meaning of being a high-ranking officer…" Xin Han coldly said.

When the man heard Xin Han\'s words, his face quickly turned pale. He has been promoted because he is riding the coattail of Xin Han and his contribution to the military.

Who would have thought that also because of him will the officer lose his rank?

"No… please… please… Cousin Han… I know I\'m wrong. I will not do this again." the man suddenly begged.

But Xin Han turned a deaf ear to his pleading.

In shame and anger, the man glares at Xin Ja and then threw a hateful glare at Xin Bin before leaving.

Xin Han then turns to Xin Bin.

"Disappointing as ever… You and your father are truly alike. I have not been to the family for a while… I think it\'s time to clean things up." Xin Han glared at Xin Bin.

At this time, no one dare to interfere, even the high-ranking officer did not say anything.

Even the Generals watching the show just stood from afar.

The young man might be a Colonel, but that is his ranking in the special units. In truth, Xin Han is already considered a General in regular units.

While looking at his uncle, Xin Bin\'s legs began to shake. He did not expect that his uncle would be in this place. He just wanted to vent his anger against his cousin. But who would have known that he would shoot himself in the foot?

When the crowd disperses, Xin Ja walked toward Xin Han.

"I did not know you were coming… I thought you would be traveling to other places…" Xin Han patted Xin Ja\'s shoulder.

"Your skill has grown to a terrible degree… Tell me, how strong are you now?" Xin Han asked.

Xin Ja looks at the few people behind them.

"Don\'t worry… They are my most trusted confidants… We trust each other with our lives…" Xin Han confidently said.

Xin Ja nodded his head and then took out a plate.

This plate records the strength that Xin Ja could exert along with his Ki.

When he showed the number at Xin Han, the latter began to count.

"Hmm… You… You\'ve broken through the Ki Adept realm?" Xin Han almost blurted out loud.

The people around him quickly frowned.

Even after scrutinizing the Ki flow in the young man\'s body, they could still see that he is only at the 1st level.

Then suddenly one of them realizes something.

"Ah… The young hero against Glysko… The most wanted man in Glysko kingdom…"

When the others heard this, they all showed a knowing look on their faces.

As intelligence officers, they have some knowledge of what is happening in the kingdom. And one of that knowledge is the young hero in the battle against the Glysko kingdom.

As the group left,

Xin Ja felt a cold gaze and strong killing intent directed at him. When he shifted his gaze he saw the ugly face of Xin Bin on the second floor.

He just showed a sneer on his face as he left.

He knew that he did not have to do anything at this point as judging from what his Uncle Han has said, that father and son duo is already in trouble.

As the group walks out of the military HQ, they headed to the parking space.

"Xin Ja would you like to visit the Xin manor with me?"

Xin Ja thought for a while. Although he did not like to visit that place because of his father, he still needed to know his own roots.

Since he has the protection of his uncle and has the strength to boot, he then decides that it might be the time to at least see the real situation in the Xin Clan.

Maybe if the clan is a bit good towards him, then he could ask his dad to visit the clan every now and then.

He knew why his father did not want to go back even after the clan\'s request.

The pain of family betrayal seems to have a huge impact on his father.

"Well, if it is uncle\'s request, then why not. But uncle, I have to warn you that I am not soft tofu… If something happens, you should not blame me, right?"

Hearing his nephew\'s words made Xin Han grin in happiness.

Seeing that grin, Xin Ja suddenly had a bad premonition.
