The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1181

(Unedited)

…

Xin Ja takes out some disinfectants in his ring and a few tools, then began to prep the place for an operation. After he scanned Yao Mai Lin's body, he noticed that a few of her internal organs has suffered wounds and some of her bones are not aligned properly.

Plus it seems that there is something wrong with her neck. He feels a bit anxious, at these findings but he forced himself to calm down.

"Senior… Do not give up," he muttered as he began to take out his silver needles and inserted them on parts of her body.

It did not take long before her condition was stabilized and Xin Ja takes out a sharp knife on the side.

There are some parts of her body where he could not use his needles and has to do an operation so that he could align her bones or suture the punctured internal organs.

5 hours later…

Xin Ja emerges from the tent and heaves a heavy sigh. He almost staggered as he tries to keep his balance. He could now feel some of his already fixed bones seem to have suffered some cracks once again.

"She… she is already fine. She just needs to rest for a couple of days before she is fully healed. She would wake up after 2 hours. But you have to monitor her condition properly and she need not take any medicine anymore…" Xin Ja said as he walks back to his room.

Behind him, Yi Terai followed with a worried expression as she would assist him when he staggers.

  The rest of the people outside immediately went inside the tent and saw the beautiful Yao Mai Lin regaining the rosy blush on her face as she lies on the bed.

She a blanket is draped on her body but they could also see that she is clothed properly.

"This… I wonder how that young lad did this?" one of the medical masters muttered while checking the condition of Yao Mai Lin.

"Ugh… Wait a minute… that young lad… is… is he that Xin Ja whom the military is searching for?" suddenly one of the medical masters seemed to have realized something.

Captain Yu nodded his head but did not bother with the three of them. His eyes are glued at the young woman peacefully lying on the bed with her chest rising and falling calmly. In his heart, he is truly grateful that she is fine.

He did not know what it started, but ever since he saw her as an officer cadet, she has already captured his attention. He tried to show indifference towards her, but as time went by, he could not help but always see her face in his mind.

After some time he has not seen her, but then one day, an assignment was given and they were to go and become an envoy to the misty village. A village that gained the attention of the army for being able to produce those giant golems they are calling Mecha.

Those giant things could rival 10th level Ki fighters and are known to have superior defenses. They have protected the misty forest against the invasion from the Glysko kingdom soldiers and have caused the enemy army to halt their offense.

Plus, they also began pushing the enemy army back which is great merit to the kingdom of Jimal.

And so they were sent to negotiate with the misty forest forces.

On their travel, he and Yao Mai Lin began a friendship which made him feel a bit happy. He did not know if she would accept him, so being her friend is the first step.

As Captain Yu glanced at Yao Mai Lin with his concerned eyes, he could not help but clench his fist. In fact, at that time, he could just kill that bastard.

But he dare not do so as he knew that he would cause trouble for his superiors. When that guy joined them he was elated as he thought that the guy would be a great helper. That man is a distant relative to the king and is under the 6th prince, so how could he not feel elated?

However, it seems that his conjecture was wrong. And because of that, he was not able to save the woman that he likes.

A complicated feeling wells up in his heart as he turns his gaze away from Yao Mai Lin.

Suddenly, an idea came to his mind as a sharp glint appears.

He took a quick glance once again and then with a clenched fist left the tent.

As he walks out, two soldiers walk to his side.

"Go back to your post… I want to be alone tonight…" he said as he calmly walks away.

That night, Captain Yu crept inside the workshop and checked the bloodstains on the ground. He then followed it outside and when he arrives at the misty area, he takes out a mask from his pack and put it on.

He knew that in the evening the mist is not just some normal mist. This mist can cause one to faint and that would cause too much trouble for him or anyone if the soldiers find him fainted in the forest.

After donning on the mask, he began to trace the blood on the ground into the deep forest. It has been a while since that man escaped, he did not know if he was able to run out of the forest, but he did not want to give up.

If that guy truly died her, he and his group would not be implicated. He already has a scapegoat. He could only say sorry to the young doctor, but that guy is already a fugitive of the army. If he killed Ra Gaofang, then it would not cause him anything because Captain Yu thinks that someone powerful is backing that guy.

As he went deeper into the forest, he could tell that the blood is getting fainter… it means that Ra Gaofeng's wound and its bleeding seemed to have lessened.

As he enters the deep and dark forest, he could only rely on the mask's strange glyphs and a sight to navigate his environment.

Every now and then he could spot fainted beasts lying on the ground.

Suddenly, he stopped…

This is because right ahead of him, he could hear the sound of fighting.

The forest is filled with mist and this mist could cause fainting. So how could there still be people fighting in this place?

Well, the only answer to that is… those people ahead of him are just like him or stronger than him. Captain Yu is a 10th level Ki fighter. Although he is young, he has already reached the 10th level which is actually amazing for his age.

And so he decided to sneak up and see the situation ahead.

As he sneak slowly, he could then see two strong auras. But one seems to be weaker than the other… however… the one with the weaker aura is the one who is very aggressive in his attacks.

As he drew closer he could not see the images of the two people.

The one with the stronger aura has one of his arms missing, while the other one seems to look like a crazy-looking old man.

"Ra Gaofang? And who is his opponent?" Captain Yu thought while observing.

The small area around the two has lesser mist. And it seems that someone created a small array field in that place to prevent the mist from seeping in.

"Crazy old man! Stop attacking and tell me who you are!" shouted Ra Gaofang.

"How dare you block my path?!"

"Hihihi… Hehe… Hahaha… You have landed on my hands… You will not get away… Hihi… Gaofang… For what your son did to my daughter and you guys did to her… I will kill you all… Kill… kill… kill…" the old man shrieked.

Upon hearing this, the pale-faced Ra Gaofang became annoyed. He did not know what this old man is talking about. But then he could incur that this crazy old guy is talking about taking revenge for what his son did? Well, as a father he could not deny the fact that his son did many atrocious things.

However, he is his son, so of course, he would protect him. For him, what his son did is not that bad.

"You are talking nonsense! My son has died! It should be me who is talking my revenge!" Ra Gaofang shouted.

He suddenly remembers how an ant was able to send him escaping barely with his life due to trickery. And it infuriated him. Although he could not accept this defeat, he has no choice but to recuperate and escape this place first and then come back for his revenge.

However, this annoying old man suddenly pops out of nowhere.

"Hihi… That's right… the bastard died… I know that. Hihi… I saw it too… and now it would be your turn next."

Upon hearing the last words from the crazy old man, the expression on Ra Gaofang's face changes.. His already pale face turned paler.
