Chapter 632

(Unedited)

…

The large body of the stead that the woman is riding is about 1 meter away from the old woman who seems oblivious to her incoming death when suddenly her figure was pulled back to safety by someone.

A strong arm is currently hugging that old woman while shielding her from further danger.

Gasping sounds could be heard everywhere as the people saw the heroic deed of that person who saved the old woman in a dashing manner.

Meanwhile, the woman riding the mount shifted her gaze slightly at the person holding the old woman. She saw that it was a young man who saved the old woman. The serious gaze from that young man made the woman feel uncomfortable. However, she didn't have time to think of anything else as she needs to reach her destination fast.

Shin Jiao, on the other hand, looks at the woman but didn't have other thoughts. He didn't know why his body just suddenly moved. It might be because he didn't want to see the old woman suffer an accident, or that he didn't want to see anyone get hurt. Either way, he couldn't explain how he truly felt.

Meanwhile, he suddenly feels the old woman's arms tightening on his waist. Then when he looks down he could see her tranquil expression. Although she is already old, her expression looks like that of a child hugging her parents.

This made Shin Jiao feel a bit awkward but he could not deny that it truly warmed his heart.

"Are you okay grandma?" he asked politely while patting the old woman's frail-looking shoulder.

Upon hearing his words, the old woman suddenly frowns and glared at Shin Jiao.

"Grand… grandma? Who me? Are you calling me grandma?" suddenly the old woman pouted while releasing her arms at Shin Jiao's waist.

Shin Jiao felt a bit confused at the old woman's reaction.

"Humph! Go, go, go away… you're disturbing my shopping time." She said as she waves her hand.

Shin Jiao was a bit flabbergasted at the old woman and did not know what to do next. So he just shook his head and showed an awkward smile on his face.

When the old woman saw him smiling, her eyes suddenly lit up and she flashed him a gentle smile.

"Hihi… I like your attitude young man. I also like your smile, so I will give you this." She said as she handed Shin Jiao a jade token.

Shin Jiao felt something weird when the jade landed on his palm. This made him suddenly inspect the jade token. However, he could not seem to see what's wrong with it. When he was about to use his absolute sense, he realized that he is still in the street.

When he lifted his head, the old woman has already disappeared.

Shin Jiao was a bit puzzled and just decided to put away the jade token. However, as soon as he was about to store it inside his ring, he suddenly felt weird.

That is because the jade token could not be stored inside his spatial ring and this only means two things.

Either it is a special item that prevents him from storing it, or it contains some soul force inside. As he thinks about it, Shin Jiao could not help but try to search for that weird old lady. However, no matter how he tried to crane his neck or use his psychokinesis range, he could not find her anywhere.

So without a choice, Shin Jiao just kept the jade token inside his secret pocket and continue walking along the road.

…

It was already almost noon when Shin Jiao left the capital city of the Golden Dragon Empire.

After gathering more information and Intel, he is now sure of the way to the Valley of the Gods. As he walks down the road, Shin Jiao could see carriages being carried to the city filled with the stench of blood.

Shin Jiao knew that those carriages carry wounded or dead soldiers.

He already knew that going to that place will usually take around a month of travel using fast horses. However, ever since the beasts broke through the walls the soldiers have already retreated and are about two weeks away from where he is right now.

However, if he decides to run, he could arrive there in just a few days. However, that is not an option for him as it would surely tire him out. Suddenly an idea came to his mind. Though he wanted to take it easy, he also thinks that he has to hurry and get to that place.

With a decision in mind, Curt walked towards the near forest and looks around. When he could not see anyone, he began digging the ground. Then he made a small room for him to craft something.

It took him the whole day of work and after he was finished it is already the afternoon the second day.

When Shin Jiao walked out of the small underground cave he just made Shin Jiao is already dragging an off-road motorcycle. Basing his design from the almost unlimited energy of the white stone, Shin Jiao was able to create a 300cc powered motorcycle.

Without the issue of aesthetics, the design was crude and simple. But Shin Jiao was able to make it run efficiently.

With a smile on his face, he sat and turns on the engine. The motorcycle was almost silent and only the sound of the gears inside could be heard.

"This is cool…" Shin Jiao muttered as he suddenly squeezes the throttle.

The motorcycle began zipping through the dirt road while Shin Jiao enjoys the feeling of just sitting on a vehicle while cruising down the road. Although the ride is bumpy, Shin Jiao still felt nostalgic as he remembers the feeling of driving through the mountainside while he was on earth.

As the motorcycle travels Shin Jiao soon saw another carriage on the road. This time, it looks luxurious and huge while being drawn by 4 Neighs.

The coachman is currently looking at Shin Jiao with his mouth wide open in disbelief. It was as if he is seeing a ghost and was unable to control his expression.

When Shin Jiao passes by the carriage, Shin Jiao heard a loud shout.

"Halt! Wait! Stop!"

Shin Jiao did not want to stop, but his curiosity got the best of him as he is currently having that elated feeling. And so he drove to the side of the road and stopped. Soon he saw another carriage which is following the first one also stopped.

Then a large middle-aged man jumps down the carriage. His body is covered with fine clothing which denotes his status.

"You, young man… give me that thing… I want that thing. Name your price!" the man shouted as he got close to Shin Jiao.

Shin Jiao immediately felt uninterested in talking to a pompous fool, so he carefully put on his helmet and was about to start the motorcycle when the middle-aged man suddenly showed an angry look on his face.

He is now seething in anger for the peasant who showed disdain on his face. So how could he the king of a kingdom and a vassal of the Golden Dragon Empire accept this? Of course, he couldn't, so without a second thought, that fat man immediately draws his sword to attack Shin Jiao.

At the side of his sight, Shin Jiao has already noticed the action of the fat man. Shin Jiao just shook his head and sneer. However, he soon discovers that there are people riding Neighs on the side that are carrying bows and arrows.

He knew that if he did not handle this immediately it would be troublesome. Hence Shin Jiao did not start the engine and just got off the motorcycle. When he took off his helmet and hang it on one of the handlebars, he can already see those people readying their bows.

Shin Jiao eyed the fat middle-aged man and said in a cold tone.

"I advise you not to provoke me… You can keep you and your people's lives that way."

The middle-aged man wanted to sneer upon hearing those words. However, once he saw Shin Jiao's eyes, he felt his heart shudder. He didn't know why but he feels that he is looking at a poisonous viper ready to strike him at any moment.

The guards of the middle-aged man suddenly felt danger and immediately armed their bows. But as soon as they did this, they suddenly feel something hitting their hands which is holding their bows.

Arrgghh!!!

Many loud cries were heard immediately coming from the guards who have already let go of their bows while holding his hands in pain. One can see blood seeping out from it.

"That was just a warning. Provoke me, and I will kill you all." Shin Jiao said in a cold tone.

Suddenly from inside two young people jumps out of the carriage. A handsome young man and an ordinary-looking woman suddenly ran towards the fat man.

"Sir… Please… please. Forgive our father for his offense." cried the young man while the young woman immediately ran to her father's side.

Shin Jiao's eye squinted while observing the two young people. Meanwhile, a beautiful mature woman suddenly walks out of the carriage and gracefully walks towards Shin Jiao.

"Dear sir, my husband did something foolish. Please, forgive him." the woman bowed.

When the middle-aged man saw his family pleading to some commoner his temper immediately erupted.

"You people are pathetic! How could you royalties lower your heads to a mere commoner?!" the middle-aged man shouted in anger.

"Shut up!" suddenly the elegant lady shouted.

"Do you think you're still a king? Your kingdom is already in ruins and most of your people are dead. Why don't you accept reality? We don't have anything anymore! Your status is nothing anymore…" her voice gradually lowered as if what she had bottled has just erupted in one go.

However, her control could still be seen as she just bit her lower lip and a few streaks of tears flow down her white cheeks.

"Sorry, please… please forgive us." she just said as she turns around and walks back to the carriage.

The middle-aged fat man seems to have realized something and immediately chases after his wife with a worried look.

Although the fat middle-aged man seems overbearing, Shin Jiao can see that he loves his wife very much.

In this incident, Shin Jiao has learned that the next kingdom on his destination has already fallen.

"I guess the horde is already coming this way… this is going to be troublesome." Shin Jiao muttered to himself as he hops on to his bike and continues on his way.

As Shin Jiao's figure rode away on his bike, the head of the handsome young man suddenly pops out of the carriage's window with an expression on his face curiosity and amazement.. He just keeps on looking until he could not see Shin Jiao's figure anymore on the horizon.
