The Geared Immortal

Supervillain

/*unedited*/

The two men with bulging muscles walk forward while grinning at Shin Jiao.

"It seems that you have some strength there. I wonder how strong you really are. Let's play…" said one of the bulky men.

"Butcher, don't bother talking rubbish. We have to finish this as soon as possible and get the target." The other said with a tone of reprimand.

"Hehe… I don't care. When I saw him fighting, I was hype up and really wanted to go all out." Butcher replied, waving his hand to dismiss his companion's words.

Butcher Ling is a mercenary who has experienced a lot of life and death battles. He is known to be ruthless and very capable in battle. He has gained his nickname 'Butcher' because he likes to chop his enemies into pieces. He is a mixed-race of Russian which is his father and Korean which is his mother.

In a normal and peaceful city, he would be considered as a serial murderer. However, in places where violence and war are rampant, his act has gained fame and fortune, and of course enemies.

He and the other guy, who is known as Reaper Long, have been partners for a very long time. Reaper Long likes to use assault rifles in battles and would always leave his enemy full of bullet holes, hence the name 'Reaper'. Reaper Long is an American and has been in the navy seal, but was dismissed because of his destructive and unruly behavior.

Upon facing Shin Jiao Butcher Ling licks his lips and slowly walks towards his prey.

Then suddenly he dashes towards Shin Jiao and from his back took out a large cleaver.

The silver metallic sheen of the cleaver flashes as Butcher swung it towards Shin Jiao's left arm. The action was really fast and accurate that Shin Jiao even scrunch his forehead upon seeing the fast and accurate action of the burly man.

He didn't expect that such a bulky guy can move really fast.

However, he didn't move heedlessly as he accurately assesses the trajectory of the blade. Then with a side step, he dodges the blade and suddenly extended his hand and caught the tip and held it back.

Butcher then found that the weapon he valued too much actually snatched from his hand by his opponent with just a simple move.

He looks at his weapon on Shin Jiao's hand with an incredulous expression.

"What? How did…" he exclaimed, but suddenly realized something.

His eyes turned to the old man, and without a second thought quickly pulled his back up weapon, an Uzi submachine gun.

"Die!" he shouted as he quickly sprayed bullets towards Shin Jiao's direction.

RATATAT!!!

The loud sound of the rapid-fire echoed through the parking space, which frightened all the onlookers making them run in all directions.

Some even got unlucky as they were hit by some stray bullets.

However, it didn't stop there as Butcher continuously fires his weapon as he retreated to take cover. He already has an idea who their enemy is. From his strength and speed, it seems that his enemy is a cultivator just like the old man, Gang Yao.

He met Gang Yao when the Tse family employed him as one of their family mercenary retainers. The strength of Gang Yao is really domineering and almost inhuman. But he has a weakness; he is not bulletproof.

So when he saw Shin Jiao's speed and strength he didn't think twice and quickly fire a shot.

"He's a cultivator! Help me!" shouted Butcher while hiding behind a wall.

Seeing the panic in Butcher's eyes, Reaper Long suddenly had a bad premonition and quickly took out his personally modified AK47 assault rifle from his back. With a quick movement, he turned his sight on Shin Jiao who is dodging from the spray of bullets.

RATATAT!!!

Reaper Long didn't hesitate and quickly fire towards, Shin Jiao.

With his accuracy and battle experience, he can adjust his sight perfectly. So no matter how his target dodges, he is sure that he can accurately hit him.

But the situation didn't turn out as the two expected, this is because no matter how many bullets they waste, they seem to be unable to hit their target. All they can see are the flashes of the ricocheting bullets on the ground and the walls.

Unknown to the two, Shin Jiao was actually stunned at the situation. With his speed and reflexes, it would be easy for him to dodge the bullets, but the two bulky men are really accurate in their shooting. And in such a short time, he has already been hit up to ten times. But of course, his skin which is already that of an infant soul realm is impenetrable by such bullets. Maybe if they use a .50 caliber bullet then it might work and have a chance to wound or even kill him.

Upon seeing the situation the two bulky men felt a bit helpless. They knew how strong cultivators are, as they are inhuman. They only knew one, and the old man is viewed as an immortal by the Tse family. They would only request his help when it comes to very important missions, and the mission this time is very important according to the youngest master of the Tse clan.

Butcher Ling and Reaper Long suddenly move in tandem as they rush towards Shin Jiao while betting all of their skills. The two are now going all out as they assault Shin Jiao who continuously dodges.

But the thing that made the two men and their companions terrified is that Shin Jiao has not moved even more than a meter away from his position.

Upon realizing the futile attempt of the two, they suddenly stopped and hid behind the walls.

"I suggest we stop this. I will not take your lives and I will forget what happened here if you take responsibility for those people you have wounded. If not then don't blame me for being ruthless." Shin Jiao said while standing calmly in the middle.

Everyone was stunned at his calm demeanor. They saw what happened and how the situation was really critical, but it seems that the young man didn't even flinch at the danger.

"Young master, I suggest we retreat. This is someone we cannot provoke." Gang Yao said as he also calmly looks at Shin Jiao.

However, deep inside his heart is beating really fast. He was afraid…

He saw what happened, as a cultivator, he can see with clear eyes that thee bullets couldn't even penetrate the young man's skin as it bounces off like hitting a very sturdy rubber.

This made him think of what his master has told him a few years ago.

"There are people who are not of this world who have might and power to destroy the planet if they desired to…"

"Then why can't I see them master?" he asked in his immature young voice.

"Because they are being suppressed by the god of this world… That's the reason why we can live freely as we can and not worry for those powerful beings in invading or destroying our world… But remember… if you see one, run… run as far as you can."

Upon recalling his old master's words, cold sweat drenched Gang Yao's back and his hands unconsciously began shaking in fear.

With a firm decision in his heart, he resolutely decided to run and never offend the powerful being in front of him. Of course, he would save the young master of the Tse clan first as it was his duty as one of the guardians of the clan.

"No, I won't retreat. I know that you are powerful too Master Yao. I want you to destroy that brat!" Jiayi Tse shouted in anger.

He didn't want to accept that his goal could not be achieved today. He has already requested for the clan guardian's help. If he could not get Shi Anne Li, then he would be a laughing stock in the family. How can he show his face in the clan if that happened then?

He can already see the mocking and jeering look on his older brothers and sisters and also his cousins. This he could not tolerate, he is Jiayi Tse, the youngest master of the Tse clan, and he would not accept any failures.

"Young master Jiayi, there are people whom we should not offend. If not, then our Tse clan would cease to exist in this world, as those people can eliminate us with a flick of their fingers… and such being is what we are facing today." Gang Yao advised.

However, because of the indignation in Jiayi Tse's heart, his judgment and mind are already clouded.

"No! I command you to make your move!"

While the two are arguing, Butcher and Reaper are already on this wit's end. They didn't know what to do next as they could not face the young man head-on or it would spell their doom.

Suddenly, Butcher's attention was interrupted when the elevator door behind him opens.

Ting!

Then his eyes saw two unearthly beauties coming from inside the elevator with their expression full of worry and anxiety.

Susan Tang and Shi Anne Li felt a bit worried upon hearing the gunshots outside. The two actually stopped the elevator from descending, but still decided to continue going down to check on Shin Jiao with worry in their hearts.

It could be said that the two women suddenly had a tacit understanding because they were concerned for the man they both like.

Butcher Ling's eyes lit up upon seeing the beauties. But he has no time to appreciate them as his goal is to take the two women as hostages. He would use the two to escape this situation and plan his next attack.

In his heart, he swore to get a more powerful gun to face the young man.

With that in mind, he quickly moved his feet and dashes towards the two women.
