The Geared Immortal

Chapter 175 - Mistaken Identity Part 13



The Jiao\'s: 5

A handsome cultivator in his 30\'s is currently having a heated discussion against another man. Both seem to be cultivators but their strength is sub-par. Though they are not that strong yet they wear expensive clothing making the people around them look with envious eyes.

"Are you blind? I was the one who got this first." The man wearing a white robe of fine cloth shouted.

"Hah! You\'ve been saying that for hours now. Yet, you never even paid for it. If you cannot afford it, then give it to me!" the handsome man said.

But right from the corner of his eyes, he shifted and saw the figure of Aye Muyan walking towards the shop. So when the man in white robe extended the jade bangle to the handsome man, he actually didn\'t take it and the jade bangle fell on the ground and breaks.

"What the… Is this thing fake?" the man in a blue robe asked with an incredulous look on his face.

"Hey you storekeeper, what\'s the meaning of this?" the man shouted while pointing angrily at the storekeeper.

When Aye Muyan saw this, she suddenly became furious. She already knows who these two are, they are from the Jiao family. Every now and then, they would come to this place and cause some ruckus to her store. Upon seeing this, Aye Muyan feels a little angry and helpless as the same time. Though she wanted to get angry but right now, protecting Shin Jiao is very important. So she stood in front of Shin Jiao showing an angry face.

"Can you two men grow up?!" Aye Muyan shouted.

"Why would you always do this?" She shouted.

"Oh, why if it isn\'t the madam of the Jiao family. I mean the kicked out madam of the Jiao family. Hahaha…" the handsome man said while jeering.

"Your things in here are all fake. You should close down this junk." The man in a blue robe said with sarcasm.

The two are starting to gain more attention from the onlookers. Shin Jiao didn\'t want any more trouble from the two men who didn\'t act their age. So he decided to stop this ruckus. Without a word, Shin Jiao waves his hand and broke two small ores and form them into small balls. Then with a flick of his finger, he sent those two balls to the wind pool point behind the neck of the two.

Because this is a sneak attack the two weren\'t able to notice the tiny flying metal ore. Plus Shin Jiao timed this when the two turn their back and pointed at the store behind them while jeering.

Thud! Thud!

Two figures suddenly fell to the ground already passed out. Everyone was shocked at this scene as they didn\'t expect the two well-known trouble makers of the Jiao family would suffer such humiliation. When the two collapses, their guards immediately rush out from the crowd and angrily turn their gaze towards everyone.

"Who dares hit our master? Come out!" the guard who looks like the leader shouted while taking out his sword.

A pin-drop silence engulfs the area as no one dared say anything. Everyone is looking at each other in the crowd trying to ascertain who knocks the two out.

"Are the Jiao family really this overbearing? They seem to like bullying the weak." A cold voice came out from the crowd.

Then a white-haired young man with a white complexion walks forward.

When the people saw him, everyone showed a distress expression. Right now the person in front of them is one of the princes of Wu. The young man wore an elegant long robe, making him look regal and imposing. The prince is Mingsha Wu, the youngest son of the king of Wu to his first wife. Mingsha Wu is known to detest any act of evil and lawlessness. Though oftentimes he distances himself from others, however, when he sees someone being bullied he would take a step and defend them after ascertaining the situation.

This is because while young he would always be bullied by his elder brothers and sisters. But one of his sisters would always protect him from the others. One day he promised her that if he became strong he would protect her and those people being oppressed by others.

Later on, that older sister of his was sent to marry one of the sons of a high minister of the kingdom. He was against it but has no power to oppose. But then he discovers that the guy his older sister married would always abuse her and would play with other women. His sister would not tell the king and even hide this from her family. In his rage, he stormed the high minister\'s manor and beat the hell out of his sister\'s husband.

When the king knew of this, he was enraged. He demoted the high minister and imprisoned his son. But later on, Mingsha Wu discovers that his sister was wounded deeply both physically and emotionally that her mind became muddled, the guy actually cast a heart\'s spell on his sister just to capture her heart. From then on, he swore to protect his sister. His attitude towards others who like to bully became extreme.

When the people from the Jiao family saw Mingsha Wu walking towards them, they could help themselves but shudder in fright.

Their young lords would always bully madam Shao just to shame her store and extort money from her. They didn\'t expect that they would see the prince in this place. Wu city is too huge and this coincidence is truly their bad luck.

"We greet the prince of Wu!"

No one knows who started it as everyone was immediately awoken from their stupor and the whole crowd of people kneeled in one knee and greeted Mingsha Wu.

"No need for formalities." Mingsha Wu said as he waved his hand.

Everyone stood up and relaxed for a bit. Then they turn their heads towards the guards of the Jiao family and showed a sneer.

"This is their bad luck for showing such a domineering attitude."

"This is their retribution for bullying madam Jiao, everyone knows how kind she is and yet they would do this to an old lady."

"What old lady? Madam Jiao is only in her 40\'s but due to the bullying of the Jiao family and the loss of her son, she became like that in sorrow."

Everyone in the surroundings whispers to each other, but after Mingsha Wu heard this; his eyes gave a fiery look towards the Jiao family guards.

When the guard captain saw this, his heart skips a beat. He knows what the youngest prince of Wu is like when seeing other people bullying others. But what can they do? The two fainted masters of the Jiao family are a rotten bunch. Because their elder brother is the clan head, they would always throw their weight around the family and no one would reprimand them.

"Prince, we seek your forgiveness. My masters are just muddleheaded just now. We would like you to please show magnanimity and forgive them." the guard captain said while cupping his hand and kneeling in one knee.

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao has already ascertained the situation for a bit. He whispered something to his mother\'s ears which made her show a doubtful expression.

"Will that not be too excessive?" Aye Muyan asked in a low voice.

"Trust me, mother. Let them bleed for a bit." Shin Jiao chuckled.

He knows that he should not gain more attention so that he could still hide his presence. Since the start, he already covered his face so as not to attract any attention.

With a nod, Aye Muyan decided to follow Shin Jiao\'s plan.

"Why ask me? I\'m not the one you are bullying. Though I wanted to teach your masters some lesson, however, I guess they already receive their due punishment, hahaha…" Mingsha Wu said while looking at the shameful position of both men on the ground.

Then the gazes of the people turn towards Aye Muyan.

She took a deep breath, she wanted to just let it go, but the time she suffered from their hands are truly numerous. This time she also wanted to bend some anger and frustrations from her heart.

"I wanted to forgive you, but this has happened far too often." Aye Muyan said.

With her words, Mingsha Wu showed a frown. He didn\'t expect that the woman would be this timid to forgive her enemies. In his mind, he now knows why she was always bullied by these clowns. But her new words made him change his mind.

"Leave all your money in here as compensation from all the things you\'ve done." Aye Muyan said in a cold and imposing tone.

Hiss…

The people gasped in disbelief. They know madam Jiao\'s temperament and disposition; she is a very timid lady and would not say such domineering words.

"You heard her. Do it now!" Mingsha Wu said with a smile.

His opinion of the middle-aged looking woman suddenly changes. But his gaze turns towards Shin Jiao and when their eyes met, they did a simple and courteous nod.

"This young man is not simple, interesting very interesting." Mingsha Du muttered to himself.

The guards of the Jiao family didn\'t reach immediately as they didn\'t know if they would follow the command of the prince or not. But suddenly the killing intent from Mingsha Du made everyone tremble and didn\'t hesitate anymore.

They took out all their precious items and give them to Aye Muyan.

Upon receiving and checking the spatial pouch, her face showed a charming smile.

Deep in her heart, she was moved at the number of spirit stones and precious materials they just gained by extorting the bullies.. In her heart, she suddenly has the urge to pray for the recovery of the two and bully them again so that she can get more.
