The Geared Immortal

Chapter 151 - The Geared Immortal Versus Zombie Cultivator XXIX



Heroes and Villains: Chapter 1

/*unedited*/

The clamoring and disturbance from the side of the village caught the attention of the roaming undead and started walking towards that particular location. Their rotting bodies and exposed bones could make one shiver in disgust and trepidation especially to those women cultivators. The rotten smell of these walking corpses would make a person throw up with just a whiff of the disgusting smell coming from their decaying bodies.

So when the zombies began to converge towards the huge mansion, it immediately gained the attention of the cultivators inside the barrier.

Before the old man could answer the question of the young woman in front of him, his face turned sour.

"This is bad… I think we attracted too much attention. We should all come inside." He said as he waves his hand gesturing everyone to follow him.

Without a second thought, the cultivators followed the old man and enter the mansion. Inside the house in the entrance is a huge hall enough to fit everyone. When everyone is already inside the old man slowly closes the door.

Looking at the number of people, he sighs heavily as if his body suddenly aged more.

Still waiting for the old man\'s explanation, Xinge Lee\'s gaze didn\'t avert from the old man\'s figure. As she thought deeply about her next actions, she noticed the figures of a few people. They are currently discussing something in front of a handsome man wearing a pure white cultivator\'s robe. His bearing and heroic aura almost made her heart jump out of her chest. What she could not understand is why she can\'t take her eyes off of him.

Seeing her reaction the young man beside her suddenly showed a worried look. With the time he spends with her, he could tell that Xinge Lee is showing an interest in the man in white. So his gaze turns cold towards that guy.

Meanwhile, Jin Fu and the rest of the leaders of each group began to discuss their next move. They know that this place is a temporary respite and they would still face the necromancer to end this ordeal. Each of them has no other option as they know the danger within the mist. But if they defeat the necromancer they might gain something more. Not only will they get to have the possible treasure hoarded by the guy which belongs to the thousands of cultivators and mortal he has killed, but he also gains the reward from the town of Snowpeach.

"Brother Jin, if we attack now, we might have the upper hand against that necromancer and his minions." A man in his 30\'s suggested.

His black beard made him look like a really mature and refined warrior along with his silver breastplate over his blue robe. He is leading a group of ten people, who wears the same robe as his.

"Yeah, we can take this opportunity and do a sneak attack on him."

"Attacking the necromancer is a good idea. But right now we don\'t know what the situation is outside. Instead of attacking, why not send out an envoy and talk to them first."

"And what? Be killed? We know how ruthless that person is. He has already destroyed almost all of the villages around this area."

"So what should we do then? Wait here and die? Let\'s attack!"

The discussion began to take shape into a chaotic argument as every leader of a group wanted to push their own opinion. But Jin Fu just kept his silence and has his gaze outside the window while everyone is in a heated discussion. No one knows what\'s in his mind as he seems to be spacing out.

It didn\'t take long before a booming voice disrupted everyone.

"Kekeke… Welcome! Welcome!" the voice seems to reverberate from all around the house.

Upon hearing this voice everyone inside the house turned silent. The village chief and his family immediately huddled together and fear can clearly be seen on their faces.

"I\'m happy to see everyone coming to my village. Kekeke… I hope that you like our warm greetings… Well, I know what you came here for. So I\'m going to give you a chance… a chance to kill me. Kekekeke…" the voice said playfully.

"I am Su Aw, as you know I am a generous man. I give those who follow me immortality in an instant… power over death; though not much in the aesthetic, yet surely you can see that my minion never dies right? They might fall or break, but still kicking! Hahaha!" Su Aw continued.

"Now, I am willing to give you this chance at immortality and become one with me. I will send ten of my most powerful generals against ten of yours. Win or lose I will make you all immortals, Kikiki."

After that silence pervades the surroundings as everyone now knows how grievous their situation is. Although they already have an idea of how powerful the necromancer is, merely to be able to send his voice inside the protective barrier means that he is already nearing the nascent realm.

Upon hearing these words and realizing the situation everyone\'s face turned solemn. Everyone knows that the power of a necromancer is to control corpses. Their souls would be tied up to their dead bodies, but become under the control of the one holding the power over their souls. Hence, as long as the necromancer lives the corpse under his command would never die. But this kind of life is nothing more than a kind of eternal imprisonment of their souls.

As a cultivator, they cultivate to go against these kinds of control over life and death. They would rather die and have their soul enter the process of reincarnation and be born somewhere else than be bound in a rotting body.

"We fight and kill that bastard!" the man wearing a blue robe shouted.

"Yeah! No matter how strong he is, we can only fight and see as we have no other choice. It\'s either to die fighting or be slaughter as lambs."

"We are with you!"

The fighting spirit of everyone suddenly rose up from their depressed mode as they heard the leaders of their groups fighting spirit.

"Everyone! He wanted us to face his ten generals. I suggest we play along with his game." Suddenly the quiet Jin Fu raised his hand and said.

The woman behind him suddenly threw out a silver ball on the ground which started spinning. Then she made a few hand gestures and a sudden surge of Qi engulfs the area.

Suddenly some people from the crowds fell to the ground while squirming and making some soul-rending howl.

"What have you done?"

"You!... How can you do this?"

"You bitch! I will kill you!"

The companions of those people who suddenly fell began to throw out curses at Ling Ya who stood unmoving beside Jin Fu.

"Everyone! Shut up!" Bok Du shouted showing his domineering attitude along with his two brothers as they stood in front of Ling Ya protecting her.

"I know that you are in distress, but what she cast is a dispelling array to protect this place from the peering eye of the enemy. And it seems that your companions have been controlled by that person. Now that we have clear out this situation, I wanted to show you my plan..." Jin Fu said as he waves his hand in front of him and conjures a 3D-like battle situation.

This realization has dawned on them that this is due to them receiving the wooden slab from the woman. So there is a chance for them to be able to manipulate the mist and enter some of the people inconspicuously.

Meanwhile, Su Aw who has just sent out his voice and challenge suddenly coughs out a mouthful of blood.

"Master! Are you all right?" Mer Li on his side immediately held his shoulder.

Su Aw extended his hand to show her that everything is okay.

"What a dangerous woman. She is actually powerful enough to dispel my soul connection to those people." Su Aw muttered with a smile slowly creeping on his face.

"I will kill her!" Mer Li said with gritted teeth.

"How? We cannot enter that place yet. Plus I don\'t want to damage all those love souls inside that place. I know that they will accept this challenge." He said with a confident smile showing in his thin pale face.

"She might be a torn on my plan, but we can still manage this. We\'ll just have to wait and destroy that town while the fight in here is happening." Su Aw said as a glint of craftiness appears in his eyes.

He has already gained enough number of powerful gold core realm cultivators inside the mist. With the total number in his hand, they can destroy the town with ease. And if he tells this to the people in this area, their state of mind would be affected and that will be his sure win.

"After we gain control of this place, we will directly go and attack the other towns… Slowly but surely, I Su Aw will control this land and become the king! Kekeke… Hahaha!!!" Su Aw laughs maniacally while holding his eyes and stomach.

His evil laugh reverberates throughout the entire village which seems to affect the rest of the undead creatures making them howl or laugh along with him.

Unknown from Su Aw and the rest of his gang standing next to him, a shadow suddenly extended from behind his back and it slowly showed a ghastly laughing face.

"Ahhh… my day of return is at hand. This foolish human is truly fascinating!"
