The Geared Immortal

Chapter 269 - The Demon’s Invasion 47



Demon\'s infiltration part 6

/*unedited*/ 

In a small village, between the Daemon Forest border town of Light and the Heavenly Crow sect, a busy atmosphere is in the air. Everyone is already starting their day while basking under the golden rays of the great sun.

This small village is called Flowing River village because it is near a long winding river coming from the mountains where the Heavenly Crow sect resides.

Although there is a great battle that is currently happening in the town of Crow between demons and cultivators, the village is peaceful and tranquil as if it is detached from the troubles of the world.

In this village, a handsome young boy name Nei Yu Ji lived in a small dilapidated straw house. He is an orphan that the village chief found in the woods and was adopted. However, as soon as it was discovered that he is unable to cultivate, he was immediately abandoned.

At the age of fifteen, he has already learned how to live alone by himself. As the only mortal in the village full of cultivators, Nei Yu Ji lived a hard life.

But somehow, heaven seems fair to him because one day while playing in the forest, he discovered that he has an uncanny sense of smell, sight, and hearing. Plus his speed is not normal. If he wanted to he can run like the wind.

At first, he suffered a lot from his speed as he would always trip and broke some bones, or sprain his foot while running. That\'s why when the villagers see him wounded after returning to the village, they would always criticize him for being too weak. But it didn\'t take long until his body was able to adapt to his newfound ability.

Nei Yu Ji didn\'t dare tell this to anyone because he didn\'t want to be outcasted more than he is now by his fellow villagers. Hence he would just go out in secret and eat his fill in the forest and returning in his old dilapidated straw hut.

Today was another day for Nei Yu Ji, but he didn\'t expect to encounter some trouble.

As soon as he got out of the door, five boys and a girl stood outside his door.

The girl is someone that Nei Yu Ji admired for a long time, Nayun Mo.

However, he didn\'t expect that she would be the one who would start bullying him. Although he still likes her in secret, Nei Yu Ji decided to keep his distance from her.

But today, Nayun Mo and her gang of admirers looking for him for trouble.

"Hey, Nei Yu Ji! I heard that you came out of the village again yesterday. I thought the village elders told you to not go out of the village because it\'s dangerous."

"Yeah, you\'re always causing us trouble. We\'re here to beat you up so that you would learn your lesson and obey the elders of the village command."

Ever since he was bullied by Nayun Mo, Nei Yu Ji has already a thread of hatred for her in his heart. Thought every time he looks at her, Nei Yu Ji would always sigh helplessly because of his feelings for her. However, what she is doing right now is already pushing his patience to the edge. And his favorable feelings for her within his heart are already dying down.

Suddenly the young boys walk closer towards, Nei Yu Ji and surround him to a corner. He didn\'t fight back because he is actually looking down on them. But if worse comes to worst, he would just escape through the forest.

Suddenly, one of the boys dashed towards him with his fist already coiled to strike.

However, once Nei Yu Ji\'s senses became active, everything became slow. He quickly dodges to the side avoiding the punch.

Seeing that he missed, the young boy shouted and threw out an attack once again.

But as with the first, Nei Yu Ji dodges this attack easily.

"What are you gawking at! Attack him!" Seeing that Nei Yu Ji can easily dodge the attack, Nayun Mo shouted in anger.

She didn\'t know why she would always feel angry whenever he sees Nei Yu Ji\'s face. But she hated it as it would always ruin her day. As someone pampered by the village as a spirit refining realm cultivator at a young age, she looks down on Nei Yu Ji because he is mere mortal trash.

Hearing her command, the rest of the young boys began attacking Nie Yu Ji.

However, they were not able to touch even the tip of this clothes or hair. Then suddenly, he saw an opening and grabs the opportunity to run.

So with all his might, he dashed and slide between a young boy\'s legs and then jumps up and dashed towards the village walls.

Seeing his nimble action, Nayun Mo was also stunned. They could not believe what they just witnessed. Every day, they would make fun of Nei Yu Ji but he would never fight back. So when he shows them his nimble moves, they were all dumbfounded.

 But not for long as they immediately chased after him.

The few figures ran across the forest as they chased after Nie Yu Ji. They were all astonished to find that Nie Yu Ji can run as fast as them, so this made them angrier as they chased him with all their might.

Meanwhile, in the other gate of the village, a small caravan approaches.

When the village guards saw the caravan which looks like merchants, they carefully checked everything before letting them in.

It is common in the village to have these types of merchant caravan to visiting them. Plus the merchant papers look in proper order hence everything went smoothly.

As the line of 4 wagons enters the village, they positioned themselves at the center beside a small simple looking fountain.

From inside a wagon, two sinister-looking eyes peered out of the darkness.

"Keke… humans… simple and ignorant." The figure in the shadows said.

On his hand is a palm-sized creature curled into a ball. Suddenly, the creature stretched forth and a leech-like thing with sharp tubes from its mouth was exposed.

"Let\'s keep them entertained first." The figure said with a grin.

Then the people around the caravan began unpacking their loads. But if one would take a closer look at the people\'s eyes, they would notice that their eyes are dilated and lifeless. And from their backs is a creature sticking with its some of its appendages inserted on everyone\'s body.

Nobody realized that the village has already been infiltrated and is now in danger.

Nei Yu Jin has already been running around the forest in circles followed by the boys and Nayun Mo. He didn\'t even sweat as he calmly ran across the forest, while his chasers didn\'t farewell. Their clothing is already looking like rags with holes and dirt everywhere due to tumbling down or hitting the branches of the trees. Nayun Mo didn\'t fare well either. Her skirt has already been torn and is now looking like a beggar.

Their situation fueled their rage and continues chasing after Nei Yu Jin.

Although they realized that he seems different but their rage clouded their rational thinking at this time.

After an hour, Nayun Mo is already panting heavily along with her army of admirers.

"Nie Yu Ji! Stop! Stop! I won\'t hurt you if you stop…" she shouted.

She didn\'t want to chase him anymore. She wanted to go back to the village and cultivate than waste her time chasing after a waste.

Everyone stopped, except for Nei Yu Ji who suddenly banished after jumping through the bushes.

"Hey! Where are you? Come out! We… I… I just want to talk." She shouted.

"If I get my hands on you, then I will break all your bones, you trash. All you know is to run and run." Nayun Mo thought.

But no one answered her, which made her immediately seethe in rage.

"You… you… trash! If I catch you returning to the village, I will pummel you to the ground. Don\'t ever come back… Trash!!! Wastrel! Scoundrel!" she shouted while stumping her feet like a spoiled little girl.

Suddenly, everyone was stunned when they heard a loud explosion.

Then their eyes immediately turn to the direction of the sound.

"Senior Sister, I think it came from the village."

"We have to go back… I think the village is in trouble."

"What do you know? As long as the village chief is protecting our village it won\'t fall!"

"The strength of the village chief is already in the gold core realm. So he is very powerful and is the more powerful cultivator. He won\'t easily get beaten."

"Alright let\'s go back!"

The boys said as they decided to return to the village. Following the group of boys, Nayun Mo hesitantly left the place while turning her head back at the place where Nie Yu Ji disappears.

"If I catch you, then…" she said while clenching her fist.

She could not accept that mere trash played them.

She could not accept the humiliation.

She could not accept the feeling of her pride being stepped upon by a mere trashy mortal.

But then suddenly she began thinking of the situation and could not help but muse deeply.

"How did he do that? His speed is truly fast, plus I think he didn\'t even break a sweat… No, no… this is impossible, maybe he found something or his shoes are special. If I catch him, I will torture him and get that item." She said with an evil grin on her face.

It didn\'t take for the group to return and saw the village from a distance.

However, instead of walking, everyone stopped on their tracks.

This is because; they just realized that the village gate is in ruins, and that thick black smoke is currently coming out almost everywhere in the village.

Meanwhile, a scream of anguish and fear can be heard every now and then making their small hearts skips a beat.

Right now, the boys and Nayun Mo are showing a mixed emotion on their faces, while tears began to swell at the corner of their eyes.

Then suddenly one of the boys broke out in tears as he ran towards the village gate.

"Mother! Father!" he shouted as he ran frantically.

But it didn\'t take long before that boy stopped and fall to the ground.

That is because in front of him stood a tall and bulky figure with his body riddled in arrows and his whole body is impaled by a long spear with the thickness of a man\'s arm and is made of redwood. All of his innards are scattered on the ground while his crimson blood dyed the ground red.

When Nayun Mo saw the man, she immediately covered her mouth with her trembling hands and tears began flowing like a river from her eyes.

Some words escaped her covered mouth with a muffled sound.

"Ma… Master… master…"
