Chapter 1169: Myrth: 139

(Unedited)

…

The forest is a bit dark and the leaves and the winds scattered the smell of blood in the air. The shadow of the leaves waving looks like a shadow figure which could send shivers running down the spine of those who would dare enter the dark forest.

Xin Ja stood with a dark expression while looking at several mounds on the ground as he buried those who have died in this ambush.

He partially blames himself for their tragedy, but he could not rewind time. He can only offer his prayer and hope for these people who have died.

As he lifted his eyes, a glint of ruthlessness appears in them.

"Since you people want me dead, then I would not cower and hide. Do you want a fight? Then let's battle it out…" he thought as anger has suddenly flooded his head.

Going deeper into the forest, Xin Ja found a cave and set up a camouflage array on its mouth. He then takes out the many stones, crystals, and ore in his inventory.

When he was Shin Jiao, he had seen the many armors and gears that he would wear in battles. In the records, he learned how they function and how strong they were… But the problem is that it was in the lower realms.

Now that he is stronger than Shin Jiao… Xin Ja did not know if he would be able to create an armor that is stronger than those in the records.

But since dangerous time, calls for desperate measures… he could only rely on himself and his gears to offset the level difference between him and his enemies.

Xin Ja has only reached the 2nd level so far and he is nowhere a match to high-ranking officers without using tricks. But on the battlefield, not all tricks would work, so he has to rely on an external force to offset his true strength.

Who cares if it is borrowed strength? At least it was made using his own hands and not something he just found or borrowed.

Xin Ja did not waste his time and quickly immerse himself in creating the gears in the records. His first goal is to create an armor that is strong enough to defend himself against the strength of someone who is as strong as or even stronger than his father.

He has fought with his father before, so he is clear on how strong a 10th level Ki fighter is. So he began to pool all of the knowledge he has and also began refining the ores he took out.

His next goal is to extend the power of his weapons, especially the Ki buster. If he is unable to create a Ki buster that could break the tough natural defense of 10th level Ki fighters, then he would still be defeated even with a powerful piece of armor.

Then he needed a close combat weapon that would also be equal in power to his Ki buster.

All of these needed powerful and rare ores which he clearly does not have enough of. But of course, he could still request it from his dad who is in Ogden town. And so without hesitation, he requested the ores from his father.

Xing Jong became so worried about his son when he received the piece of news that Xin Ja is being hunted by the military. At the same time, he is angry at the higher-ups for what has happened. But Xin Jong did not do anything rash through the advice of Xin Han.

So when he heard that his son is fine, he did not panic anymore and decided to help his son with his request.

…

A week later…

The war continue surging on, this time the kingdom of Glysko did not focus on attacking a certain direction but instead, they spread their forces as they began harassing the rest of the towns. This has caused a great headache to the soldiers of the kingdom of Jimal.

But it seems that this is only a distraction as their main focus of attack is a village near the mountains. This village is a hidden village which is actually a strategic point and a hole in the line of defense of the Kingdom of Jimal's army.

The village was discovered by a squad of Glysko soldiers who stumble upon the location while trying to scout the area.

The whole area is under a gray mist which tends to make those who enter it lost inside the mist. But for some reason, the soldiers from the Glysko kingdom were able to enter it accidentally.

And so while the army of the enemy attacks different parts of the border towns, a large company of more than 1000 soldiers is currently marching towards the hidden village.

At this time, in the village outskirt, an old man is standing above a cliff overlooking the busy village going with their busy life.

At this time a shadow figure suddenly appears behind him.

"Village head… everything is ready…" the figure wearing black clothes said as he bowed.

"Good… if the plan works, then we will be able to eliminate a large number of the soldiers from the Glysko kingdom. They have been oppressing us for so long… It has to stop now. If we contributed in this war, then the kingdom of Jimal might accept us as part of their kingdom." The village head said with a smile.

"Will they really accept us… what if they learned that we are escapees from the kingdom of Glysko?" the man in black asked.

"It's time for us to choose sides… We cannot just hide forever…" the old village head said as he looks at the horizon.

"How about the elders… some of them are against it. They are saying that they wanted to return to the Glysko kingdom. And this is their chance to prove their worth…" the man said with a worried expression.

"Just make sure that they did not do anything stupid…" the village head said.

Suddenly, the village head feels something dangerous coming from behind him. He wanted to activate his Ki but it was too late. A sharp weapon suddenly appears in front of his chest. The weapon is covered with crimson blood and he knew that he has lowered his defenses and that even his trusted guard has betrayed him.

"You… How… how could you…" the village head said as he staggered as he fell kneeling on the ground.

"How could I? Hehehe… How could I not? You stupid old man… We are from the Glysko kingdom! How could we surrender to those barbarians from the Jimal kingdom? Although we were chased out of the kingdom of Glysko, this is our chance to go back!… Now if you want to be a traitor and die, then do not involve the rest of us!" shouted the man as he stood up in front of the village head.

The old man showed a dejected expression on his face blood slowly seeps out of his mouth.

"Boy… you… and the… rest… will… regret this…" the village head said as he slowly fell down on the ground.

While this is happening, a petite figure is watching from behind a tree while covering her mouth. She wanted to go and help the old man but she knew that she is not a match for the man in black.

"Grandfather… How… how could they do this to you?" she muttered in a low voice as tears began pouring out of her eyes.

Meanwhile, the man in black walks to the village head's corpse and then showed a wide sneer on his face.

"I will take good care of Yi Teria… Hehehe…" he said as he stabbed the old man on the ground once again.

He then left the area while checking his surroundings.

The petite young woman slowly walks out from behind the tree. She slowly approached the corpse of the old man on the ground as tears did not stop falling from her eyes. With clenched fists, her eyes turned frosty.

"You dedicate your life for them… and this is how they pay you… I swear in my heart that they will pay for what they did to you grandfather… I Yi Teria will make them all pay!" she said with a clenched fist.

She leaned forward and then grabs the bloody necklace hanging on her grandfather's neck. The necklace is filled with black and white beads and the pendant looks like a bronze trigram.

Although it is filled with blood, Yi Teria did not hesitate to put it on her neck and wear it. Suddenly, she felt something strange… it was strange energy coming from the necklace which made her body seem to grow more powerful.

As she basks in the feeling of euphoria where her strength suddenly grows, she did not notice a figure appearing from behind her.

"So this is where you were at… What happened to… to the village head?" the black figure asked as he walks closer and saw that Yi Teria actually noticed him.

Yi Teria turns around and then glared at the man.

"Yi Gauwan… You're an ingrate!" Yi Teria shouted as she suddenly jumps back while quickly grabbing her dagger and slicing at the figure behind her.

A Ki energy blade flew out of her dagger and hit the figure of Yi Gauwan.

Boom!!!
