The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1009

(Unedited)

…

It was hard for the couple to accept the fact that their daughter is actually a servant of someone. So with this, the expression of Leonard and his wife turned grave as they suddenly stood up from their seats.

"How could a daughter of the Vin clan be a servant! This is outrageous, I will permit this folly! " shouted Amilia Vin in agitation.

Although her daughter was missing for a long time and they now found her, the couple could not accept that she be a servant for others. It is another thing that they did not know it. But since they have known it, they would not stand idly by and permit such a thing.

And so, the couple began to feel angry at the young man who made their daughter his servant.

"How dare you made my daughter be your servant! We will not condone this!" Leonard Vin said glaring at Shin Jiao.

The strength of a High Lord suddenly erupted from Leonard Vin's body giving off a very strong and powerful pressure directed towards Shin Jiao.

With his strength as a High Lord, Leonard Vin is confident that he could subdue the young man. How could a mere lord like him fight against his strength?

Yemei Yin suddenly feels heavy as she was grounded in her seat. Her head feel a bit dizzy as she was surprised by the strong pressure coming from somewhere.

But before she knew it, the pressure suddenly disappears.

"It seems that my branch of the Vin clan of the central land has become outrageous after all these years…" a calm male voice said as a figure appears from the entrance.

This person has the same power level as Leonard Vin but he is already at the late stages of the High Lord realm. Hence he easily controlled the pressure exerted by Leonard Vin freeing Yemei Yin from the pressure.

"I… I did not expect an elder of the clan to be here. Forgive my offense…" Leonard Vin immediately said after seeing the robe and the jade plate hanging on the man's side.

He immediately knew that the man is from the Vin clan's main branch judging from his jade plate alone. How could a mere branch family show disrespect towards the elder?

"Umm…" the man waved his hand and shifted his gaze at Yemei Yin.

"Greeting, Master Shin…" the elder greeted.

He then shifted his gaze to Yemei Yin and then showed a faint smile with a hint of satisfaction in them.

"This is your daughter?" he said while nodding at Yemei Yin.

"Yes, she is our first daughter… We wanted her to return to the family… but…" Amilia Vin said and wanted to continue but was stopped by the elder.

"I do not know what happened, but she is a very talented junior… Not bad, not bad at all…" the Vin clan elder said.

"This…"

"Don't tell me that you are still as crafty as you were when you were younger. You are even scheming even against your own daughter…" he suddenly said with a dissatisfied tone.

Leonard Vin was a bit taken aback. From the words of the clan elder of their main branch, it seems that this person knows him.

As if reading his mind, the Vin clan elder chuckled for a bit then said.

"Leonard Vin… you've been born as a low-class clan member. You worked hard to raise the ranks in the branch clans but did a lot of things just to get your dreams. You sold your sons to be married to high-ranking, rich, and powerful families just to gain more wealth… You may have reached the High Lord realm through pills and medicine, but this is not strong enough to be a match against Master Shin here."

"I will not tell you about how I know you, but you should know that the main clan is observing your every move. The glory you have today is your won and the clan would not ask anything for it. But you should lessen your scheming else the Vin clan would surely intervene." He said with a tone of warning.

The Vin clan actually admires the potential of Leonard as a businessman. However, his greed is taking a toll on him and the Vin clan's reputation. If this continues on and he ruins the Vin clan's name, then he could blame himself if the clan takes action.

Upon hearing this, Leonard Vin's expression turned pale. He did not expect the main branch actually knows a lot about him.

"Ye… Yes, elder. This humble one knows his mistake…"

"Good… Now your daughter will not be controlled by you. As a representative of the main clan, I will permit her freedom." The elder said with a smile.

His handsome disposition and overbearing attitude made Yemei Yin feel at ease. She feels like she has met another of her savior other than her master.

Shin Jiao on the side has noticed the gaze of the Vin clan elder. He actually has noticed this guy even from before the meeting started. He seems to be looking at Yemei Yin for some reason. Now that he saw his eye, he knew that the guy seem to have taken a liking to Yemei Yin.

He did not interrupt the discussion and let the guy show off in front of the woman he likes.

He does not know if this guy is a worthy partner for Yemei Yin, it will all depend on her discussion then.

This fiasco ended with the parents of Yemei Yin staying for a while in the town while trying to show their affection to their daughter. But how could Yemei Yin still remember them? With her memories wiped out after living a few lives over and over in Xinglo kingdom, she has no trace of memory of the two at all.

Shin Jiao explained this thing to the couple and this made them go home feeling dejected. Although they did not experience it, they knew that their daughter has experienced a terrible fate.

This time, instead of feeling angry or annoyed at Shin Jiao they feel grateful. They now know what really happened to their daughter. The two decided to try and win her heart instead. That way, they could still make her feel that she still has a family.

With the presence of the Vin clan elder, how could they go out of line?

…

After that troublesome matter was resolved, Shin Jiao went to the town and enter an underground room.

At this time, Shin Jiao wanted to release the body of Agus and the elemental dragon.

When the dragon was sent outside of the dimension, it was a bit surprised at the scene in front of it.

"Where… Where is this place?" it asked with a hint of wariness in its eyes.

"This is my new underground laboratory… You can stay here until Agus wakes up." Shin Jiao said.

When the physical body of Agus came out of the dimension, Shin Jiao could immediately feel the whole area reverberating. The body has already reached the peak of the Saint-level. At first, he thought that she was already a deity, but he discovered that it is not so.

But it would only take a little while before she could become a deity, so it is almost a sure thing.

Shin Jiao showed him a new cavern on the side where the Elemental dragon would stay.

"Thank you… Thank you for saving us… About the young master… it would be better for the mistress to not know…" the dragon said.

Shin Jiao agrees with this. The soul of Ruel is still in the Xinglo Kingdom. If ever, he did well and came out of that place, then he could resume his life in the immortal land.

After arranging about Agus and the Elemental Dragon, Shin Jiao set his eyes on the upcoming Heaven and Earth opening.

He has a bad premonition that there is something that's going to happen in that event, but he could not get his mind to it.

Plus, he noticed that the demons and the shadow beings seem to have suddenly vanished. No news about them or traces of their activity was seen or heard.

This is also true for the High Elves as their kingdom seems to have suddenly turned silent. The scouts even said that there are no movements in the High Elven kingdom. It was as if the whole High Elven population suddenly vanished.

This thing has been weighing his mind for a while, but he could not do anything about it. He already did what he could everything will be left to fate.

If the immortal land really falls then he could only accept what fate has in store for him.

As he looks at the dark sky, he heaves a deep sigh. Once again his mind recalls the past and reminisces about them.

  "Can I really prepare a good place for them? Or will my hard work will be turned for naught?" he muttered as he continue thinking.

Sensing the agitation in his heart, the figure standing outside his door did not enter and just carefully left.
