The Geared Immortal

Chapter 719

(Unedited)

…

The people in the hall were silent as Grim Mills strode inside like a pompous rich young heir of a powerful family. He was reprimanded and was punished by his family because of the incident that he caused. Plus the pain that he suffered from having his head severed and suffering mental torture in that void was really something that should have made him feel scared. However, instead of getting scared and terrified, a fit of deep anger swells up in his heart.

And now, he decided to strike back. In truth, he has no plan to do this, but upon accidentally seeing the prosperous blacksmith shop, he could not contain his resentments anymore and decided to strike.

He wanted to at least give these people a lesson. Although he could not act on them like always, shaming them is also a part of his revenge.

As he walks inside, he could see the fear in the eyes of the customers as they went to the side to make way for his group.

A proud expression appears on his face as he strode in front of the young man who shamed him and his older brother.

"Hmm… It seems that the young master of the Mills did not learn his lesson. You want another spanking or a trip to the void?" Shin Jiao who was standing calmly while facing the Grim Mills and the men behind him said.

Hearing the voice of the young man in front of him, Grim Mills could not help but feel the chills in his body.

He could not help it, he is really afraid of this monster in front of him.

Even his older brother has not come out from his seclusion because of the incident at that time. So now he could only rely on himself and some of their family\'s most powerful gold armored protectors.

"I\'m… I\'m not afraid of you… plus… I\'m… I\'m just here to… to extract justice for this fellow." Grim Mills\' stuttering voice said as he suddenly takes a step back.

Shin Jiao smirks but did not do anything.

No matter what these fools would do today, they would not be able to do anything in the shop and the staff working in it.

This time, the leader of the three protectors walks forward.

"Young Master Grim, I would advise that you should not interfere with this matter…"

Hearing the words from the protector, the expression of Grim Mills turned ugly. But he knew that what the protector just said is true. He could not do anything to this shop because of the warning.

"Hehe… Grim, you\'re just a coward, aren\'t you?… Just standing behind his brother and his guard hoping to be protected… Hahaha… A coward indeed…" the young man wearing a hood said while a sinister grin was on his face.

The expression and the provoking of the young man made Grim Mills, who was supposed to be calming down, turned hostile.

Suddenly, as if all of the logical reason jumping out of his mind, Grim Mills draws his sword and then with a shout charges towards one of the saleslady. He aims to cause trouble no matter what the consequence is.

Shin Jiao suddenly found the reaction of Grim Mills a bit peculiar. Especially his eyes, it feels different.

The people behind him went pale but did not have any other choice but to follow their young master\'s action as they too draw their weapons.

The sales personnel in the shop extended their hands and grab those people that have the shop items on their hand and drag them near.

The quick reaction of those sales personnel was not noticed by many.

Shin Jiao just calmly looks at the charging people with a smile. Meanwhile, the young female sales personnel that are standing with her eyes wide open were unable to move from her spot.

As Grim Mills attacks the young woman the sword in his hand suddenly blurred and with skill, he suddenly cut towards the young woman\'s torso.

Clang!

A loud reverberating sound suddenly echoed to the air stunning everyone inside the hall.

Dumbfounded and shocked could be seen in everyone\'s eyes. They could not believe that such a thing is possible. A mere peasant was able to withstand a strike from a servant level person, plus Grim Mills is also using a skill at that.

So how could they not be shocked at this scene?

Grim Mills is currently looking at the young woman while grabbing his hand. Then everyone noticed the golden blood dripping to the floor flowing from the sword\'s blade.

Instead of wounding his target, he was the one who was wounded. Grim Mills was astounded and at the same time feels fearful.

Right now, in truth, he actually didn\'t know what just happened. He just feels a strong feeling of rage in his heart, and then suddenly his body moved on its own.

The people with Grim Mills suddenly surrounded him to protect him from anyone who would try to attack their master.

"Hahaha… interesting, I knew it… this is really interesting." the young man who provoked Grim Mills said as he suddenly walks forward and then removes the hood covering his head.

When his hood was removed, the face inside the hood slowly change and the hair also suddenly turned gray.

When the people inside the shop\'s hall saw the man, they all showed extreme expressions of shock, fear, and reverence.

Then no one knew who started it, but the people began bowing their heads to greet the man.

"We greet the high lord!" the people said in unison.

Everyone was really afraid now and just wanted to leave the shop. Who would have known that the famous high lord staying in the city would suddenly appear in front of them? Plus that same high lord seems to have seen the atrocities of the young master from the Mills family.

When everyone looks at Grim Mills, they could not help but feel dread in their hearts. They didn\'t know what would happen to him as of this time for doing such atrocities in front of the high lord.

"You people should take your young master away… I will visit the Mills family after this." Ryujin Osmond said with a wave of his hand.

The protectors around Grim Mills did not waste any time as they politely lowered their heads while assisting the petrified Grim Mills.

It was really his unlucky day today. Before coming out, he should have checked the calendar for an auspicious date, why has he been really unlucky these past few days?

When those people left, Shin Jiao walks in front of Ryujin Osmond.

"This humble one truly appreciates the high lord\'s presence…" Shin Jiao said with a grateful tone.

As Ryujin Osmond saw the gesture of Shin Jiao he showed a faint smile on his face. In fact, he was truly surprised when he saw what had happened a while ago.

Though many did not see it clearly, as a high lord with a cultivation level of 86, he could clearly see what had happened. A thin silver film that is almost invisible to the naked eye suddenly appears when the sword almost hit the female sales personnel of the shop.

Then he could feel the power that Grim Mills release backfiring and this caused his hand to be wounded and the veins inside it torn to shreds.

He was really amazed at the array protecting the shop. For months he has been trying to pry open the secret of that young man, but he could not find him even with his ability to scan the town. But after learning of the slowly gaining fame shop, he could feel that what he is looking for is actually inside that place.

So he personally visited the shop and true to this conjecture, he saw the young man.

And then the trouble happened which made him feel angry. He decided to teach the arrogant young man from the Mills family a lesson. Plus he also decided to visit the Mills this time. Last time, he forgave them due to giving Lord Geland Mills face. But this time, he would not let this thing slide.

"Haha… Young Master Si Ji is very polite. This high lord visited you for a talk…" Ryujin Osmond said with a smile.

Shin Jiao was a bit taken aback, who would have known that the high lord would be interested in a lower level being like himself.

"It would be my honor, my lord. Please, come this way…" Shin Jiao said as he led the high lord towards the second floor.

The office on the second floor looks modern and a bit spacious.

"I am amazed at what you have done to this shop. And I am also interested in the items this shop is selling…" Ryujin Osmond suddenly said after taking a sip of the tea.

"Thank you for your praise. The things we sell are just common items; they are not worth such praises my lord."

"Hahaha… if that is common, I wonder if you have some rare items in this shop?" Ryujin Osmon said with a smile.

"Ahhh… Well, that depends on what kind of things the high lord is willing to exchange for it?" Shin Jiao said with a smile.

This simple smile from him made Ryujin Osmond a bit dumbfounded. He didn\'t expect that this young man would really have rare items other than those they are already selling. Although he is a high lord, Ryujin knew that relying only on his own strength he would not be able to face those stronger races.

He even fought evenly against lord level from the high elven and the Zith\'ra races. How would he be able to defeat a high lord level in those races if he doesn\'t use powerful artifacts? But the problem is the craftsman association doesn\'t have that many powerful artifacts.

In fact, before coming here, he requested the clan for a powerful spear. However, what he receives is a middle-grade spear that is not even powerful enough to help him defeat a lord level opponent.

But now, this small shop has a rare item, how could he not feel astounded?

"Is… is that for real?" Ryujin Osmond asked in surprise.

Shin Jiao just showed a faint smile.

"Then show them to me!" Ryujin said in excitement unable to control his emotion.
