The Geared Immortal

Chapter 505

/*unedited*/

The destruction of the room and the fainting of many people is a cause for alarm to those who are seeing this event. As of now, three figures have already appeared outside of the manor estate of the Xie family.

"What do you think happened here master?" a middle-aged man wearing a blue cultivator's robe asked.

"Hmm… I can feel a familiar aura… it's… it's a domain aura… but a weak one. A primary domain… Hmmm… is there a world nascent realm in the Xie residence that we didn't know about?" the old man with white beard and hair asked.

"Master, I think I'm familiar with this aura… This is that child genius, Yao Mai… I… I didn't expect that girl to reach such length in her cultivation level… Haha… Master, if I may, I wanted to take her as my own disciple." A woman wearing a veil on her face said while cupping her hand towards the old man.

"Ah, that beauty of hers is causing a lot of trouble everywhere she goes… I heard the 3rd prince is searching for her… If your Ice Phoenix feather sect can cultivate her into a powerhouse, then our Er kingdom would grow further. Maybe we can become the number 1 kingdom in the empire… Haha…"

"Master, with your guidance, we are sure that this would happen." The woman said.

"Haha… You little lass have grown up to have such a glib tongue… I can still remember when you were young hundreds of years ago…"

"Master Gi! Please don't jest… I'm an old woman now… how could you say those things?" the woman said with a blush on her face.

"Your age might be old, but for me, you're still that cute little girl… Haha… you even preserved your youthful appearance. I guess this is what your useless husband has left you…"

"Sigh… Don't remind of that bastard… I was tricked by him and has carried our daughter somewhere… I'm guessing that my daughter would also be a grandmother by now… I wish I can see her again and my great-granddaughter too…" the woman said with a touch of melancholy in her tone.

"Hey, look!" the middle-aged man suddenly interrupted the recollection of the two and pointed at a particular building.

"What! This is… this is a miracle! It's my… It's my junior sister… I had already lost hope… But now…" the woman suddenly became emotional as her figure suddenly vanished and appear just outside of the house.

Then she walked with a quick stride inside.

Her frantic steps didn't halt as she weaves through the people lying on the ground. And soon arrive inside the domain of Yao Mai.

Her appearance immediately shocked the people inside the domain.

"Huh! Fairy Sie! How did you?... I mean… I Minister Yiao, greet your excellency." The minister immediately cupped his hand upon seeing the woman in a veil.

Yao Mai was also shocked because while the woman in under her domain, she can feel her strength.

But the woman didn't bother with anyone and just looks at the two people floating in the air. It is clear that the two have broken through to the nascent realm. It was such a blessing in disguise.

"Junior sister Lanfen… You… you're fine now…" the woman known as Fairy Sie said as she moves forward and approaches the woman who is the mother of Song Xie.

"Please, don't approach yet… Their cultivation level has not yet consolidated, please wait for a few minutes." A voice interrupted her advance.

Behind the two, she noticed a young man standing calmly while observing the two figures floating in the air. The whole room is already in ruins, but it seems that the young man was not even hurt. Then an idea enters her mind, but she dares not believe such a thing. How could a young man reach the domain stage at his age? Plus she could not detect his cultivation level.

She herself is one of the few geniuses who have accidentally comprehended the domain by observing Senior Gi for many times. But now there are two people in front of her that has reached the domain stage. So she was a bit surprised.

Meanwhile, in the air, a slowly shriveling blob is currently shouting as it felt its body slowly dissipating.

"No, this cannot happen… Please forgive me! I didn't mean to do that just now… In truth, I didn't know that it has the ability to trap people… Please don't let me die just like this… Please! Please…"

"Pfft… you won't die. The soul is immortal and has no end. You'll just be recycled and hopefully, in your next life, you will stop being too scheming… in fact, I was planning to help you back then. But you just have to do that… You've just sealed your faith." Shin Jiao said.

"Well, actually there is another way for you to survive…"

"Tell me! Tell me! I will do anything…"

"Get the soul of the person who helped you…"

When Shin Jiao said this, the only people who are still conscious frown. Especially the woman who didn't know what is happening.

"Little Song, who is he talking to?" Cau Sie asked Song Xie who is still in a stupor.

When she heard the voice of the woman, she immediately woke up.

"Aunt Sie! It's you… look, mother and father… they are…"

"I know, I know… but who is that guy and what is he talking about?"

"That is Master Ji… He is the one who helps us get here…"

"Oh, the man who gave the new coordinates of the portal in Si kingdom."

"Yes, that's him. And I asked him to help mother and father… he seems to be able to see the… curse."

"Really, they are really cursed? I wonder why we could not even detect what is happening…"

While this is happening, a figure can be seen slowly backing out from the place. And only Yao Mai noticed this as she is still raising her domain. Although she can already put it down, she just uses the minimum effort just in case something might happen. Hence the stress in her mind is not that much.

"Miss Mai, can you turn off your domain for a bit." Shin Jiao suddenly said.

"Master Ji… that…"

"It's okay…"

With a nod, Yao Mai was about to turn off her domain, but suddenly a figure dashed towards Song Xie and tried to grab her hand.

But how could that person be faster than Cau Sie who is already a 5th level nascent realm expert?

"No! No! I didn't do anything… I didn't do anything, why would you harm me?" suddenly Minister Yiao shouted when he felt something entering his body.

"Who said that it was you?" Shin Jiao said with a smirk.

"What! You… you tricked me!" shouted Minister Yiao.

However, before he can react. He felt his body tremble as he suddenly lost consciousness.

"Hehe… that guy's soul is a bit dark… Yummy!… Thank you for the meal… Hehe…" the blob said after retracting its tentacle from the body of Minister Yiao.

"Is he dead?"

"No, he's just unconscious. But his consciousness will not return anymore… Well, we can say that he is clinically brain dead…" Shin Jiao said nonchalantly.

Then after that, he waves his hand and the blob suddenly flew inside the stone.

"Wait! You said that…" the blob protested.

"Che… You should be happy that I didn't kill you… You still have your uses for me… So I'll just hold on to you for a while." Shin Jiao said with a smile and immediately took the stone and kept it inside his ring.

…

Not long later the couple slowly opens their eyes and find themselves lying on a bed.

Beside them are some of the people they knew, which made them feel a bit surprised.

"Ugh… my… body… my body felt… good. How could this be? What happened?" the man muttered as he turns his sight towards the people with a questioning gaze.

"Yes… me too… How… how did I advance to the nascent realm?" the woman also muttered.

While the two are still in a daze, a young woman and a young girl suddenly dashed towards the two and hugged them while crying.

"Mother, father…" the two said simultaneously while sobbing.

"Oh, my little girls… I never thought that the two of you have grown too beautifully now… mother is sorry for not being there to watch you two grow."

"Mom, you don't have to worry… we are fine. As long as both you and father are here, everything is fine. We love you both…"

"Mommy, you don't have to worry… with me around, no one can bully you again." The young girl said with a proud expression on her cute face.

In truth, Ling Xie is carrying some guilt in her heart. Because she thought that she was very unlucky. Due to her, both of her parents died, and then something happened to her new mother and father who loves her and pampers her the best. She was too sad and carried this guilt while being young.

And now that the two are awake she swore to protect them at the cost of her own life. Because she truly loves both of her 2nd mother and father.

"Hahaha… you little girl… Let mother look at you… you've grown into beauty now." Lanfen Yun said as she lovingly hugs Ling Xie.

"Ahem… I think we should be leaving now and leave the four of you… but before we go. Master Xie, congratulations on your advancement. I hope that you can revive the prestige of the Xie family. The kingdom needs you." The old man said with a genuinely happy smile on his wizen old face.

"Master… Master Gi… Thank you… I promise to visit you one of these days."

"Okay, okay… since you've already woken up, there is no rush. Handle you matters first…" the old man said as he walks out of the room.

The middle-aged man followed behind him, but Cau Sie stayed. She wanted to spend some time with her junior sister before leaving.

While this is happening, Shin Jiao on the side is closing his eyes and slowly consolidate some of the excess Qi coming from the soul essence in his dantian.

"I think my soul essence has absorbed too much…" he muttered as he felt a bit uncomfortable.
