The Geared Immortal

Chapter 935

(Unedited)

…

The small boat suddenly turned silent as it floated in the lake towards the thick lush lake weeds. Those other boats traveling this path could not see what is happening in the boat and did not care about anything else.

This is because this part of the lake is a bit dangerous; if they are unlucky they would meet a lake creature and would lose their lives. So the boatmen dare not be reckless at this point.

Meanwhile, Yao Linlin and the middle-aged uncle are currently sitting in a lotus position while a black smoke coming from Yao Linlin\'s body is connected to the middle-aged uncle.

After a few minutes, she opened her eyes and commanded in a low tone.

"Let\'s go…"

The middle-aged uncle nodded his head and robotically stood up and began rowing the boat.

He is already lifeless with his eyes turning pure black.

The two travel for about 3 hours on the small boat until they reached the other side. Many small boats also came to this place as there are many adventurers and hunters coming to the other side for hunting rare medicinal plants, ore, animals, and many more.

This place is like a treasure trove to them but filled with danger and risk. But the gain almost always overshadows the risk.

And so, when Yao Linlin alighted from the boat many noticed her presence, especially those that saw her milky white small feet and her eye-catching legs which have been exposed upon coming down the boat.

As she walks two people suddenly approached her.

"Isn\'t this the small witch, Yao Linlin… Why are you coming to this dangerous place?" a tall and burly man with a thick beard said while eying the beautiful silver-haired young woman in front of him.

Yao Linlin did not bother answering as she just walks away from the two.

"Wait a minute… Don\'t be rude, I am greeting you…" he said as he attempted to grab her small arm.

But before the man could do so, the middle-aged uncle following behind Yao Linlin suddenly grabbed his burly arms and stopped his movement.

"Take care of him; I don\'t want to be disturbed…" Yao Linlin said in a cold and eerie tone.

Before her words ended, the middle-aged uncle suddenly made a move and with a single palm strike, the burly man was sent flying.

His companion was a little stunned. The two decided to get their hands on the beautiful young woman. But who would expect such a thing from happening? They are seasoned hunters and strong warriors to boot, but how could such a weak-looking middle-aged man send his partner away? This scene is truly out of his expectation.

But he has no time to contemplate this. What he needed to do right now is to attack this middle-aged man to avenge his friend.

He suddenly grabs the sword on his side and slices towards the hips of the middle-aged man.

When the sword was about to hit, the middle-aged man agilely jumps up and then, using both fists, punches to the man\'s chest.

The man saw this and quickly jumps back.

But a gust of wind pushes him further which made him stagger a few meters.

He showed grimace on his face for the humiliation he suffered in the hands of the middle-aged man and the young woman who should have been an easy target for him and his friend.

They are seasoned hunters in this dangerous place for crying out loud, being defeated by a mere old man and young woman is truly a huge slap to their faces.

Without hesitation, he suddenly brandishes his sword, but this time he is not alone. His companion, which was sent flying a while ago, has already recovered and is now also rushing to attack the middle-aged man.

Two versus one, this fight has already attracted many eyes while some of them are glued on the beautiful young woman wearing a coarse old cloak covering almost all of her body except for her beautiful face and silver hair dangling on her shoulder.

She did not even worry about the middle-aged man, instead, she has a look of impatience on her beautiful face.

After 15 minutes of battling, the two strong hunters lay flat on the ground with the middle-aged man winning the battle. His body is littered with wounds which he seems to not mind at all.

The two just walk away under the gaze of the dumbfounded crowd.

"Isn\'t that Old man Gong Fang? How come he is following the little witch?" a person who seems to know the two said to the one beside him.

"I don\'t know… Old man Gong is acting weird…"

"I agree, he is not that strong and is only a boatman, right? If this is so, then his son would not have been very busy outside, and the two would not be living a poor life…"

"Who know…"

The people began to speculate about what is happening in front of them. But what captured the attention of many of them is the beautiful appearance of Yao Linlin. They did not expect the little witch to be this beautiful and alluring, if they have known then they would have already made their move to woo her before. But seeing what happened just now, who would dare to do such a thing?

…

Meanwhile, watching all of this happening is a figure hidden amongst the crowd. He looks like an ordinary old man with a long sword on his back. He has been following this two ever since they left the small town and traveled through the lake. He saw everything that has happened but did not do anything about it.

This old warrior is Shin Jiao.

He decided to follow behind to know the secret of Yao Linlin and how she is being controlled by the influence of the Dark Grand Magus Gan Warbread.

He walked along with the crowd and among the hunters going out of the small passage to the other side of the cavern.

"Hey, you\'re new here aren\'t you old man…"

A man suddenly said from beside Shin Jiao.

Shin Jiao nodded his head and showed a cordial smile.

Upon seeing this, the man was a bit stunned as he noticed that the old man does not really look that old, more like middle-aged.

"Ahh… You are a hunter, right?" the man asked as if trying to remember the hunters in this place.

"Yes, I was a fighter in the last war… I have long wanted to stretch my hands again, and just decided it now…" Shin Jiao explained.

"Oh, I see… Why don\'t you join us then… We are just a group of hunters trying to earn some money. You\'re welcome to our group…" he said while pointing at the few people behind him.

Shin Jiao looks at them and nodded his head.

This group is consisting of five people including the man who talked to him. There is only one woman in the group and she looks like a strong dark mage. Beside her is a tall man wearing the same dark mage cloak as her. The two have their hood cover their head giving off a mysterious vibe.

"Thank you…" Shin Jiao said with a smile.

And so he walks with the group while at the same time, monitoring the direction where Yao Linlin is going.

After going out of the cave, they soon arrive in a lush green forest. Since the day is almost over, the darkness made the forest look gloomy and creepy.

"We should camp out first and hunt at the break of dawn…" the man said as his team walks to an area where there are also many hunters gathering.

This is already a common sight to them as hunters gather among the foragers and the miners. These people are here to earn money for the people in the town, so they happily get together to wait for the sun to rise on the horizon.

While this is happening, two figures have already entered the forest; those who saw them just shook their heads. Though they did not want to see the beautiful silver-haired girl suffer inside the forest, they also did not want to stop the two for fear of offending them.

Those that saw the fight before knew of the strength of the middle-aged man. They knew that they are not a match against him.

However, around four people suddenly walked out amongst the group and followed those two from behind.

"Are they really going to take revenge in this dangerous place?" one of the hunters muttered in a low voice.

"Those people are petty… They are the ones who started it, now that they are beaten they wanted to strike back, what fools…"

"Well, those guys have been overbearing ever since I started hunting here. If they are taught a lesson, then that would be for the best, then…"

"Haha… I agree, if they vanished, then we should be thankful. Those bullies have been too overbearing…"

The people began to discuss while sitting around their group\'s bonfire.
