The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1277

(Unedited)

…

The office of Marshal Tee Gui looks modern and has a minimalistic design. Ever since the advancement of the war capability of the kingdom which was pushed by Tee Gui who at that time he was only a brigade commander, he was promoted then promoted to be a Marshal.

With his military accomplishment, he was able to help the Tee clan get a foothold in the capital and the kingdom.

However, Marshal Tee is an upright person who adheres to rules and honor. That is why most families and clans in the kingdom would tread lightly when dealing with him for fear of offending the marshal.

As of this moment, Xin Ja is currently inside the simple-looking office and is currently having a cup of tea with the Marshal.

"It's been a while since I last saw you and now you've grown into a fine young man…" Tee Gui said after he finished signing the forms and handing them to his assistant who is standing on the side.

"Thank you for the compliment, Sir Marshal…" Xin Ja politely nodded as he puts down the cup.

"Well, I called you here because of the new proposal that you've just sent me last month. It was a huge headache… However, it seems that the king agrees with the condition." Tee Gui said with a big smile on his face.

"That is good to know, Sir Marshal…"

"The world is going to get even crazier… Imagining a Mecha that can fly through the skies…" Tee Gui did not finish his words and just looks out the window.

"Our kingdom will become stronger, and under the influence of the empire, we would grow steadily… You know that you are the main contributor to these changes, right… You just don't want responsibility and just dump everything to us old men…" he added with a self-deprecating smile.

"And I am grateful for that, Sir Marshal…"

After settling the business he had with Marshal and receiving a secret assignment, the expression of Xin Ja is a bit serious while contemplating the assigned task for him.

In the lobby, while walking and in deep thought, he did not notice that a figure has already seen him. That figure is carrying a cup of hot beverage in his hand while walking.

Then suddenly, the man bumps Xin Ja. But before their bodies could hit each other, Xin Ja has already dodged to the side.

The guy was taken aback and was suddenly caught off balance.

The beverage he was holding was accidentally thrown to a person behind Xin Ja who is showing a mocking smile on his face.

Caught off-guard, the hot drink was all over that guy's face.

The man is Xin Bin, a junior officer in the military. Since he is surnamed Xin, he holds a little power in the military and has his own subordinates who would be at his beck and call.

Xin Bin has already recognized Xin Ja when he enters the military headquarters. But what he did not expect is that he would lose him in the crowd of soldiers.

Now he waited in the lobby for him to show up again and try to humiliate the guy.

For some time now, he hated Xin Ja and his father Xin Jong for gaining the attention of the family. He and his father thought that the exiled father and son have actually taken the limelight in the family which should belong to him and his father.

He became a junior officer at the young age of 25, and he is almost comparable to his military genius uncle Xin Han.

But ever since the name Xin Jong resurface in the family, his father and his accomplishments have been drowned in the ditch and could only get a pat on their shoulders for it.

So how could he and his father not bear a grudge against the two wastes in the family?

Though he could not deny the fact that Xin Ja's father, Xin Jong is already a powerful Ki Adept and is now at the level of a family elder, his son on the other hand is still a waste.

So what if he has contributed to the war? Who has not?

Why his Uncle Xin Han values that waste of a guy is something he could not understand.

Ever since then he waited for a chance to play some tricks on that waste and put him in his own place.

He was planning to make one of his subordinates hit the guy… accidentally, and then even after he was humiliated by the pouring of drinks, his companion would also scold the guy.

That was the plan anyhow.

But reality seems a bit cruel.

It was him who actually fell for his own trap.

Wiping the steaming tea on his face, Xin Bin glared at Xin Ja and then shouted.

"How dare you, you bastard!"

Everyone in the lobby was taken aback by the shout.

Then many young soldiers began to see the incident. It is seldom that this thing would happen in the headquarters' lobby, so how could they not want to see this drama?

Xin Ja frowned a bit and then looks at the shouting person behind him.

He then looks at the stunned guy standing awkwardly on his side.

"Is he calling you a bastard?" Xin Ja asked the guy showing an innocent expression on his face.

The guy was stunned when he heard this.

"I'm not a bastard… You are! Why did you trip me?" shouted the man when he suddenly has gotten his composure.

"I merely dodge you… not trip you… That is a different concept you know…" Xin Ja calmly said showing a polite smile.

"You dare lie!" Shouted the man as he lifted his hand to slap Xin Ja.

Xin Ja was taken aback as the man actually would resort to violence just because he could not win an argument.

Everyone is already shaking their head when they saw this scene. They could already see the young man wearing civilian clothes and his cultivation level. As a mere 1st-level Ki fighter, how could he fight against someone on the 5th level?

With one glance, they could already tell what would happen.

However, no one wanted to neither intervene nor stop this scene from happening.

On the second-floor railing, four young people are watching this scene.

"That Xin Bin is once again being atrocious…" a female officer said.

She has long blond hair and a pair of beautiful big eyes. The rest of her figure is well proportioned and her fit and sexy body looks really tantalizing in her officer's uniform.

"Haha… He is relying on his uncle's name. If not for Colonel Xin, who would give a face to that trash…" a young man wearing the same officer's uniform said while leaning on the railings.

"But I wonder why he is targeting that civilian?" another one asked.

"Maybe because they have previous grudges… You know how that guy loves to offend people…"

"What a pity, with trash cultivation like that, he would break under that one hit…"

The four discussed this while watching the play on the first floor.

The blonde hair woman did not say anything and just squinted while observing the scene.

She finds the young man intriguing as she could not see any hint of fear in his eyes when facing a 5th-level Ki fighter.

Meanwhile, on the scene…

The guy uses all of his force to slap Xin Ja.

But before his hand could even hit Xin Ja, he suddenly discovered that he had missed him. Suddenly he feels Xin Ja grabbing his arm and going below him.

The man sneers, but before he could react, he feels his body flying in the air and then landing on the ground with a loud bang!

Everyone was stunned and dumbfounded.

They did not expect that a 5th-level Ki fighter would suffer in the hands of 1st-level trash.

"Lesson number one… When physically fighting against a more powerful opponent, always use their power against them." Xin Ja said as if lecturing.

Enrage at the humiliation, the guy suddenly got up, then charges Xin Ja.

This time he would be using a skill.

"Black palm technique!" he shouted as his palm suddenly formed black smoke.

Swoosh!!!

But he was still unable to hit his target. Using only one hand, Xin Ja diverted the strike towards him someone who is grinning and showing a sinister smile on his face.

Xin Bin is watching this scene with delight as he knew that this is more than teaching Xin Ja a lesson. This would be utter humiliation for that arrogant trash.

While imagining what would happen to Xin Ja, Xin bin's mind suddenly drifted to the praises that his father would give him.

He could not wait to hear his father recognize his accomplishment in humiliating that hateful son of his rival.

But then suddenly he woke up as he senses that something was wrong.

Before he knew it, all he could see is a strong palm with black smoke going straight at his shoulder.
