The Geared Immortal

1284 Heavenly Samsara: Chapter 34

Chapter 1284

…

As the people surround Xin Ja and Rou Chenchen the two became vigilant of their surroundings.

Rou Jin walks behind the people wearing black robes while glaring at Xin Ja.

"How dare you trick my naïve cousin? I will make sure that you are punished for this insolence!" shouted Rou Jin while pointing at Xin Ja.

"Shut up! You have no right to say that to him?!" shouted Rou Chenchen back.

"Cousin… Look at you… You are not this defiant before you meet this bastard. Now that he is here, you would even shout at me, your own cousin…" Rou Jin said showing an upset expression.

"Yes, young mistress… You should not be tricked by this charlatan." A guard said with a deep frown then glared at Xin Ja.

"Senior Rou… You should trust more on your own kin than outsiders…" Zhuang Yunbin added.

As she heard the voices of the people around her, her expression turned darker. How could she not know what is happening? How could she not understand what they wanted from her? For more than 3 years she held on to this kind of life where the family would use her influence just to get ahead.

They had even partnered with some young masters just to trap her for their own benefit.

Luckily for her, the alchemist association is there to protect her. If not, she would not be able to see nor talk to Xin Ja ever again.

The reason why she endures it all is because of Xin Ja and their promise to each other.

She knew that he would come and take her away from this place and free her from her own family.

As Rou Chenchen glares at all those people tears could be seen sliding down her fair cheeks.

Then suddenly a warm hand held her shoulder.

"It's okay… They will not be able to hurt me… they are after all… weak…" Xin Ja said as he moved her to stand behind him.

Being protected made Rou Chenchen feel warm in her heart.

She could recall those days when they were in the academy where Xin Ja would always be there to help her and protect her.

He was a warm shoulder to lean on, a warm person to be with, and someone who would never tread her badly no matter what.

He taught her everything she knew and gave her this false bravado of being a genius. Although this is considered her honor, in truth this all belongs to him but gave it to her unconditionally.

"It's because I love you that I want you to be happy…" is what he said.

So how could she not feel anger when her own family would oppress the man she loves?

"Hahaha… A trashy bastard like you want to fight against us?!" shouted Rou Jin as he pointed his finger at Xin Ja.

"Everyone, teach him a lesson!" he added with a fierce glare.

No one ever dares to stand against him. Even in the family, Rou Jin is one of the most respected members of the Rou young generation.

This is because he holds the power to mobilize some of the experts in the Rou clan due to the command of their patriarch which is his uncle.

And so when this guy acted like he was nothing, Rou Jin was totally enraged.

Without hesitation, four bodyguards suddenly darted out at Xin Ja.

"Little Ja…" Rou Chenchen could not help but feel worried.

But Xin Ja just showed a calm smile on his face and did not even look at the four people coming right at him.

Instead, he just looks at Rou Chenchen with his loving eyes.

Pa! Pa! Bam! Bam!

Four figures were sent flying backward which made all of them sprawl on the floor.

Xin Ja did not even break a sweat in beating those people up and then returning back to Rou Chenchen as if nothing had happened.

Both Rou Jin and Zhuang Yunbin were dumbfounded. They did not expect such a situation would occur and that four 5th level Ki fighters would not even stand a chance against a mere trashy 1st level.

"What are you doing?! Kill that bastard!" shouted Rou Jin who is not thoroughly infuriated.

Bulging veins could be seen on his forehead while he glares at Xin Ja.

This time, all of the bodyguards made their move and two of them are even 10th-level Ki Fighters.

But to there was no suspense as they were all easily taken down by Xin Ja with one move each and then return back smiling at Rou Chenchen.

She could not help but chuckle at his antics.

"You've become this strong already…" she showed a teasing smile.

Xin Ja could not help but touch her cheeks lovingly.

Seeing the public display of affection between the two, Rou Jin and Zhuang Yunbin could not hold their rage anymore.

Taking out an MCAW from his Mule Rou Jin suddenly pointed it at Xin Ja's back.

Zhuang Yunbin also takes out a sword and then charges it with his Ki.

Without hesitation, the two attacked Xin Ja.

Xin Ja did not turn around and just signaled his hand up.

Right at moment, a shadow appears and quickly bit the hand of Zhuang Yunbin holding the sword.

Crunch!!!

Arrgghh!!!

Without suspense the forearm was bitten off along with the sword, then that shadow waves its wings and the bolts were deflected easily.

Xuanlong who has been stealthily around Xin Ja appears with her figure which is now the size of a regular wolf.

She spits out the severed arm from her maw and then snarled at the two men.

"That… What kind of creature is that?" Rou Jin shouted as he takes a few steps back.

The crying Zhuang Yunbin is running in the direction where his forearm was thrown and did not think twice as he rushes away from the area.

He need to find a medical master to reattach his arm, if not… then he would not be an alchemist anymore.

The people around Rou Jin immediately surround him to protect him from the black beast that looks like a small black-winged dragon.

"I am not going to do anything… just leave…" Xin Ja said while waving his hand.

He could not kill this guy… after all, he is still the cousin of Rou Chenchen.

Clap! Clap! Clap!

The sound of someone clapping echoed in the night air as a figure appears from the darkness.

When Rou Chenchen saw that figure her expression turned pale.

How could she not know who that person is? Unlike her cousin, this person is someone with power and authority in the clan.

This person is the 3rd elder who is the father of her cousin, Rou Jin.

"It seems that you have the guts to challenge my Rou clan…" the 3rd elder said with a crafty smile on his face.

"I am quite interested how a mere 1st level Ki fighter could defeat even those at the 10th level. You are not that simple, son of Xin Jong…" the 3rd elder said calmly as he stood beside his son.

"It seems that you know who I am… I have no enmity against your clan, why do this thing?" Xin Ja said calmly showing a bit of an inquisitive tone.

"Hahaha… Well, I would agree with that. You, my friend, do not have enmity with us before… But now you have…" he said while looking at the bruised bodyguards around.

"Hmm… So this will be your excuse? But it is not enough to justify your means when my family asks for an explanation, don't you agree?" Xin Ja said with a sneer.

"Haha… Well, of course, that would not be enough… But you've crossed someone that you should not have this time… My dear niece is actually the fiancée of someone who is very influential…" the 3rd elder said with a chuckle.

When Xin Ja and Rou Chenchen heard this, they both showed confusion in their eyes… especially Rou Chenche.

How could she not know that such a thing is happening? How could she suddenly have a fiancé?

She then glared at the 3rd elder.

"The family has been doing this trick for a while now… Do you think that you can still do such a thing? The alchemist association will not agree to this!" she shouted in anger.

"Hahaha… This is none of their concern anymore. This is because this union has been blessed by one of the princes… the 6th prince Han Xulong…" the 3rd elder confidently said with a proud smile on his face.

Who would have known that the Zaoi clan would suddenly approach the Rou clan and propose this union with the help of the powerful 6th prince?

With the 6th prince as their patron and backer, who would dare to clash against the Rou clan in the capital?

Plus, if the Zaoi clan and the Rou clan could participate with each other, then both of their family would become stronger along with the support of the prince.

Contrary to the 3rd elder's jubilant expression, Xin Ja's face turned dark. He has an ongoing conflict with the 6th prince as he sides with the 4th prince. And now it seems that the 6th prince has known about Rou Chenchen and is going to use such tactics to subdue him.

Anger suddenly filled Xin Ja's heart at this time.
