The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1399

Heavenly Samsara: Chapter 149

…

Samantha and two of her guards enter the bar with the intent to wind up after the long day of practice. They have been working with the military troops and the villagers to fix the walls and chase the remnants of the demonized beast hiding near the forest area.

A short yet busty woman came near them as they took their seat.

"Do you want the usual, Miss Walters?" she asked with a gentle smile.

Samantha nodded her head and then leaned her aching back on the chair while contemplating something.

Suddenly, a figure stood before her looking a bit smug.

The young man has a handsome face, but his smug look made him look like a hooligan.

"Hello, Miss Walters… Would you mind me and my friend joining your group here?" he said with his dashing smile.

The expression of Samantha, went cold, upon hearing this. The time she spent here in the village is not that long, but no one has ever tried hitting on her before.

But when she looks at the man's epaulet, her heart skipped a beat. This is because the guy before her is actually an E-Rank awakened.

Who would have thought that an E-Rank awakened would be here and that he would still have time to mess around with the troublesome situation of the village?

But she is still a daughter of a rich family, after all, so she grits her teeth and shakes her head.

"I'm sorry… I don't want a company right now. We are just here to relax…" she said with a frown.

"Haha… I assure you that I am more of a relaxing companion than the men around you…" the young man pushed while sneering at the people around her.

Her guards did not say a word, but they already have their fists in a ball. No matter what, they would not let their young miss be shamed even if that person is more powerful than them.

Suddenly, the young man extended his hand and grabbed Samantha's hand which startled her.

"Come on! Don't be like that Miss Walters… I don't bite…" he said with a grin.

The others behind him cheered while watching their companion grab the wrist of the young woman.

"Release me!" Samantha shouted in anger.

But the guy just sneered at her with a challenging gaze in his beautiful eyes.

At this time, the guards around Samantha have already stood up. Their leader charges at the young man and sent a punch to his face.

But the young man just shifted his head to the side while delivering a strong punch at the gut of the guard leader. Then the rest followed and attacked while the young man sent them flying back with a badly bruised body.

The young man did this without releasing his tight grip on Samantha's hand.

She was stunned to see her guards getting hurt. One of them is even on a brink of death as his chest caves in because of the powerful punch of the young man.

"No… Why… Why would you be so cruel?" Samantha asked in pain.

She had worked with her guards in helping the village defend from the monsters, but then they would be treated this way by the soldiers who arrived late. She is really not resigned to this kind of treatment. She wanted to shout, she wanted to fight back, but she felt helpless at the powerful grip of the young man before her.

"It is useless to fight back…" the young man said while he sneered.

No one in the surroundings made a move and just lowered their heads in shame.

They saw how strong the young man is, plus from his attitude, they knew that he belong to one of the influential families in the city.

By this time, no one noticed a crouching figure that is treating the wounded guards lying on the ground.

Xin Ja did not want to intrude on such a scene, but the way that young beats those guards ticks him off. Since strength is the basis of respect in these parts, then he decided to teach these soldiers a lesson about respect.

After treating the guards, Xin Ja stood up and looks in the direction of the young man dragging Samantha towards their group.

At this time, the young woman amongst the group has already stood up and then glared at the young man.

As she stood before him, she sent a resounding slap on his face.

"You've caused some trouble…" she said in a low but menacing tone.

The young man was stunned, but he did not release his grip on Samantha. It is a matter of his pride as a son of a proud clan.

"Leader… I call you this because of your strength. But do not forget who I am…" he said with a grin as he looks at the beautiful young woman before him with malicious eyes.

In fact, he has had his eyes on their leader for a long time but did not make his move because they are in the military.

But he also did not want to lower his head to her and would sometimes follow her whims… but now is not that time.

He has already gotten his hand on the woman, so why would he let go?

"Suit yourselves… It would be your funeral…" she said as she stood to the side.

At this time, the figure of Xin Ja was exposed to the group. When the young men and women at the table saw him, they all showed confusion in their eyes.

"Senior… Please… Do not kill any of them…" the young woman suddenly said while lowering her head.

In fact, she has already noticed Xin Ja amongst the group and she has this hunch that he is a very formidable fellow just because she could not see through his strength.

When the rest of the people at that table heard her, they all showed wariness. They knew that their leader has the sixth sense and could detect any threat in their surroundings.

That is the reason why they are all alive in every mission they undertook. It is because they follow her lead and her instinct.

Now that she had said those words, how could they not know what is happening?

"Release the woman and all of you break your arms… If not… I will do what he did to those guys on you…" Xin Ja warned in a deep voice.

The expression of everyone in the inn turned pale.

How could this young man be so audacious as to request these officers to break their arms? Is he mad or something?

But when Samantha noticed who the young man before her is, she showed a hopeful expression in her eyes.

Silence pervades the room as no one said anything.

"Ahem…" a deep voice echoed and everyone turned to look at the bar's door.

There stood two military officers looking at the group.

The one in the front is a middle-aged man whom Xin Ja had seen from the meeting a while ago.

He has a look of awkwardness in his eyes when Xin Ja looks at him in the corner of his eyes.

"Mister Summers… I think it is better if I offer you an explanation. We… We need these soldiers fit and proper just in case an emergency happens…" the officer said as he steps forward.

Xin Ja did not say anything and his eyes landed on the young officer that is still holding Samantha's arm.

When the young man saw this, he gritted his teeth and let go of her arm.

There is a mark of deep red on her arm which shows that the young man is tightly holding her.

Then suddenly, a flash happened and without anyone seeing Xin Ja making a move, that young man was already sent flying on the wall breaking it into pieces.

Xin Ja glared at the rest of the young officers.

"In my unit… Those who oppressed their power, as a military officer, no matter their background will always end up dead…" he said calmly.

"Miss Walters…" Xin Ja gestured for Samantha to head out of the bar.

The soldiers quickly turn around and helped their comrade.

But the expression of one of them who is their medical officer turned pale.

"Sir… His condition is critical…"

This made the rest of the soldier's heart skip a beat.

"He paid him back for what he did to that guard of the woman…" their leader said with a deep frown.

The high-ranking officers heaved a heavy sigh. Although they did not know what truly happened, they also have clue that this happened because of their own soldiers.

They cannot make a move on that guy as he is probably a C-Rank or maybe even a B-Rank awakened.

…

Samantha Walters showed a grateful smile on her face as she turns around at Xin Ja. The rest of her guards also cupped their hands and thanked him for his help.

They were just so amazed that their wounds were easily healed. They did not expect that the young man is not only powerful but also a healer.

As the group left, the two military officers walked out along with the rest of the junior officers.

"Mister Summers… Can I have a word?" the middle-aged officer said as his companion leads the others away from the area.

Although they are afraid of Xin Ja with what has happened, they still resent him for hurting one of their own.

All of them are glaring at him except for their leader who is showing a curious look on her beautiful face.
