The Geared Immortal

1368 Heavenly Samsara: Chapter 118

Chapter 1368

Xin Ja has not expected the An Clan to be so ruthless as to get rid of even a powerless guy like himself. He has done them a good thing by handing them the legacy and all, and this is how they are going to repay him?

It seems that he was too kind to be treated like a pawn that is easy to get rid of.

If he did not show his strength today, then these people would think that he is someone that is easily bullied.

So the instant that the young maid made her move was the time that Xin Ja decided to show his fangs.

Outside the courtyard, several soldiers of the clan are patrolling the vicinity and the security of the whole manor is really tight.

Everyone seems to be on tenterhooks as they patrol the whole area of the manor.

This same scene could be seen in each of the manors owned by the An Clan. They seem to have decided to make sure that their clan is secured for whatever happens next.

And some elders in the clan also made a move to get rid of those that might cause problems in the clan in the future.

That is why some of the unknown guests in the clans are either kicked out or gotten rid of by the clan's special assassin groups.

The reason for this is that they did not want any loose ends and they did not want the other clans to know what really is going on in the clan.

The complete lock-down of the clan could tell many things.

And one of those things is the fall of the many warriors of the clan in the Shen's Abode.

In the main manor inside a meeting room, Jing Xue is sitting with a knitted brow while glaring at a muscular middle-aged man seated on the opposite side of her seat.

The man folded his large arms while sneering at her.

"Do you think that you can keep this discovery from us, from the clan that has nurtured you? I have already asked the patriarch permission to get the information about the abode, and you should tell them to me now… if not, then you can only blame yourself for your arrogance." The man said with a prideful smirk.

She suddenly chuckled and looks at the man as if she is looking at a fool.

"Do you think I'm one of those stupid elders by your side? I have known for many years how your scheming works and it would not work on me… I will wait for the patriarch to arrive and then tell this to the whole clan…" Jing Xue sneered.

"Haha… Well, as they said if you cannot convince them with words, use slight intimidation, right?" the middle-aged man grinned sinisterly.

"I think, this would be the right time, right?" he suddenly asked one of the elders on the side.

The elder nodded his head with a smile.

The group seated around the table suddenly turned silent.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Suddenly, a series of loud noises coming from outside was heard even in the clan meeting room.

This startled the elders inside the room and almost all of them frowned.

Even Jing Xue frowned when she heard the noise.

Judging from where the noise came from, she knew that the intimidation they are talking about should be Xin Ja.

She suddenly stood up and glared at the middle-aged man which is the cousin of the patriarch. This man is so ambitious that he would always try to scheme for the seat of the patriarch. He would always fail and is always unscathed in the conflict because of the mercy of the old patriarch of the clan.

And in time, he became so audacious that he would sometimes flaunt his stupidity in the clan, but no one could make their move on him because of the old patriarch which everyone respected.

And this time is no different, this man named An Gudo is once again stirring some trouble, and his target is Jing Xue.

When Jing Xue wanted to run outside, she was immediately blocked by several armed guards.

"It would be better not to go out, Aunt Jing… Hehe… You might be strong but the old patriarch has told us not to have internal conflicts, right? You should not prioritize outsiders over your family… That would be… really bad." He suddenly said with a smirk.

"You…"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

They were all startled when they heard several noises from outside and it made them all frown.

"Are we under attack?!" An Gudo shouted as he feel a bit worried now.

One of the guards run outside and it did not take long before he return.

"Sir, we… we have a problem." He stammered while wiping his sweat.

"What is happening?"

"The southern outer courtyard has been destroyed, and many of our soldiers are fighting a… a single person," he reported.

"What? Only a single person and you could not even defeat?"

"That… That person is using some weird artifact that is making it hard for us to attack him," he said.

Peng! Peng!

Suddenly, atop the meeting room, two holes appear which seem to have come from the direction of the battle.

"Damn it!" An Gudo shouted in anger as he suddenly flew out of the meeting hall.

He would see what kind of godly person would dare enter his An Clan and cause such trouble.

As soon as he walked out of the room to the courtyard he could already see many soldiers hiding in the corners and on the rocks with fear in their eyes.

Not one of them dares go out of their hiding place. Many of them have wounds on their bodies which has already relieved them of their fighting ability.

"How dare you!..." An Gudo shouted as he walked out but before he could continue saying his words.

Bang!

He could hear the whistling sound of the wind passing near his left ear.

Then he could feel a slight stinging sensation as a part of his left ear was grazed by a bullet.

He suddenly stiffens and without a second thought quickly ran back inside the safety of the door.

"How dare you bastard!" he shouted as soon as he was able to hide in safety.

Although he is powerful in the Ki-Adept realm late-stage, he was taken by surprise at how easily that object tore through his Ki energy barrier.

When Jing Xue saw what happened, a slight smirk appears on her face.

She was worried that the young guy would be bullied, but it seems that she was worried for nothing. From the looks of it, it was not that he was bullied, but he is the one doing the bullying currently.

"I was invited here to be a guest, and this is how the An Clan treats their guest… If I have known, I should have given that thing to the other clans… Then maybe the treatment would be better!" Xin Ja shouted while looking in the direction where Jing Xue is standing.

Even though she is hidden, he could still see her with his Absolute sense.

"What guest?! You are clearly attacking our clan members! Everyone listens to me, no matter what we have to…" before An Gudo could finish his words a strong pressure suddenly appears from inside the main manor.

When everyone felt it, they all quickly prostrate to the ground.

"We greet the old patriarch!" everyone almost said in unison.

Xin Ja could feel the pressure, but when he was about to give in, she suddenly feel a warm sensation coming from the small fire chick in his dantian.

That small thing even shake its head as if something is amiss and then glared at the direction where the pressure is coming from. It even put its tiny winds on its imaginary hip as it glared in that direction.

Then it smirked and walked back to the warm dantian it so loved to lean on.

An ethereal voice suddenly appears in the air.

"It seems that my An Clan has offended the young sir… Please pardon our faults. It is not our intention to do anything to you."

Xin Ja wanted to smirk, but he also did not want to offend this powerful being from the An Clan.

From that pressure alone, he knew that the person inside might be a Ki-Champion late-stage elder or even a Ki-Grandmaster. He did not know, but either way, he would surely die if he offended that guy.

He could only lower his head and bow as the other person offered his apology first in the first place.

"I do not want to escalate this issue, senior. I was invited here, by senior Jing, and this lowly one dares not to push my luck. Since the An Clan did not want my presence, they should have only said it, and I would surely leave without squabble… I know my place." Xin Ja said with resolution.

"Haha… A young hero indeed… Please, stay… I will make sure that you are treated fairly in our clan. Young Jing's friend is also my friend."

With these words, Xin Ja feel at ease and just bowed his head.

"Thank you, it is my honor…"

Although Xin Ja has already lowered his head, An Gudo is still not convinced of the result and is still seating in anger in his heart… He wanted revenge. How dare an ant offend him!
