Chapter 799: The Valley Of Mortals 1

(Unedited)

…

Shin Jiao and Nariz Gumal are currently looking at the map where the supposed location of the Land of Death is. To their surprise, the location is actually a bit dangerous for many travelers. This is because it is just below a cliff where a shorter path from the town of Goamli to the next town is located.

This path would only take a day for any travelers to take. However, many merchants or travelers have been lost in that place due to beast attacks and them falling to the Land of Death below the small cliff.

And so, another path was made which would take travelers a longer time from Goamli to the next village. But this path is relatively safer for travelers.

No immortal would risk their immortality in the Land of Death. Some even said that wounds would not easily heal in that place. Even when coming close to the borders of that fog, one can feel their immortality ebbing away.

And no immortal would want to waste their hard-earned immortality and cultivation just to take a shorter path.

But all these years, there are still those who would take this path, and many of those are array masters and alchemists.

Their reason for this is that they wanted to know the mysterious secret of this land. How it works and how could it kill immortals and forcefully shatter their soul stones. This mystery has baffled a lot of people that even the saint rulers were not able to solve this secret.

"This is what I have known from my investigation…" Shin Jiao said after explaining things to Nariz Gumal.

The woman was silent as she watches the land area where the Land of Death. She then shifted her gaze to the two who are currently learning about something while sitting on the bed with spectacles covering their eyes.

Shin Jiao has decided to teach those two about basic spells so that they would be of use when the time comes. Although their skills are already good enough, they did not have any long-range attacking ability.

Teaching them a thing or two would not be that bad.

And so Shin Jiao and Nariz Gumal began planning their next destination.

The next day, after Shin Jiao was done with his business, they received some visitors.

The group introduced themselves as people from the Xiao family. Shin Jiao was not surprised as he has met with Ting Xiao after all, but from the tone and the proud look on these people's eyes, Shin Jiao could already tell that there is something amiss about them.

There are only three people who enter the luxurious hotel room of Shin Jiao.

They look at him with disdain as if he is some lowly commoner while they haughtily sat on the sofa. Im Jae casually served the guest some tea, while taking glances at them.

She recognized one of them, the only woman in the group. She is Hua Xiao, the daughter of the grand elder of the Xiao family.

She carried great weight in the family and would always pick a fight with Im Jae. The reason for this is because, in the Xiao family, Hua Xiao was once considered as the most beautiful woman according to the immortal land's standard which is already really high. It could be considered as the most beautiful among all of the goddesses in the Xiao family.

But when Im Jae arrived in the family, Hua Xiao's beauty suddenly paled in comparison. Im Jae truly has outstanding beauty and temperament. But what made Hua Xiao hate her more is when the young master of the Jing family that Hua Xiao fancies offers a marriage proposal to the Xiao's.

This releases all of her anger at once and wanted to vent her anger towards Im Jae. But who would have known that Im Jae and her brother would escape the family because of this proposal? Though she was angered, she was also grateful for the stupidity of Im Jae.

Now, her family sent her along with two elders to meet with a merchant who came from a famous place, the town of Gipard.

In the whole of the human territory, Gipard town has already been considered as the birth of modern artifacts. When the situation in the town recovered, the town became even more prosperous making it the dream place for any artificer and craftsmen.

However, due to circumstances, the leaders began to limit people coming to the town of Gipard.

Now that there is a merchant who came from that place, how could the Xiao not welcome him?

But the Xiao has been in control of Goamli town for far too long so their haughty appearance and demeanor is a normal thing for them.

"Mister Shin… We are here to propose something to you." Hua Xiao said while sitting comfortably on the sofa.

"We want you to give us all of your wares and you will gain our support." She said haughtily as if gaining the support of the Xiao family is the best thing in this world.

Upon hearing her words, Shin Jiao did not react and just casually takes a sip of the tea. Although the woman in front of him is not even on the silver level, the two people beside her are actually lords.

"Miss Hua… Your offer is… It's not a bit tempting for me." Shin Jiao said with a smile.

Hearing his words, the two men beside Hua Xiao creased their brows and showed an unhappy expression.

"Oh… why is that?" she said with a smile.

"Well, you know what I mean…" Shin Jiao casually said.

Hearing his words, the eyes of Hua Xiao turned into slits. She is not sure what he meant by that, but if her conjecture is not wrong, this man named Shin Jiao seems to have discovered that they were contacted by that group who seem to be chasing after them.

Of course, before getting rid of these people, she needed to get the most out of them first. Knowing that these people came from the town of Gipard and from what she discovered yesterday from her uncle, it seems that they are carrying many artifacts.

She saw one of those artifacts and knew that they are of high quality.

"I am not sure of what you mean by that, Master Shin…" she said while playing with the cup in her hand.

"Nothing… I just don't like to cooperate with your group. I think Mr. Ting xiao is an honorable person, but you guys give me a different vibe… eerie…" Shin Jiao said as he acted like his body is shivering.

Hearing his words, the expression of the two men turned grim. They are here to subjugate this merchant if he did not follow their wishes and forcefully take his stuff. But they are also worried that the Chairman of the Merchant Guild would be angry with them, hence they just wanted to put some pressure on this young man.

But who would have known that he could not get a clue and even tell it to their face that they are untrustworthy? As lords, bodyguards, and protectors of the family, how could the two suffer such provocation?

"You just made a bad choice, Mr. Shin…" Hua Xiao said with a sneer.

She then signaled for the two to act.

Suddenly, they saw Shin Jiao taking out a small circular jade in his hand. They then saw him smiling as the room was suddenly enveloped in bright light.

Bam!

Before they knew it, they found themselves crashing to the ground just outside the hotel entrance.

The three were in a sorry state, as anger filled their hearts in humiliation that they just suffered.

"I want that man dead!" shouted Hua Xiao while pointing at the third floor of the hotel.

When the two men were about to move, a person suddenly appears at the hotel entrance. When they saw who that guy was, they immediately stopped.

"Lord Ansen Wine…" the three greeted.

Lord Ansen Wine walks calmly towards the three. Many of the onlookers are hiding in some corners while watching this scene.

"It seems that you have faced some troublesome matters, Miss Hua…" Ansen Wine said while looking at the beautiful Hua Xiao.

Although he is traveling with the beauty Vilma Song, Hua Xiao is different. She is in a different league when it comes to appearance and figure. He could not casually play with Vilma Song because of her background, but the woman in front of him right now is different.

No matter how powerful the Xiao family is, their power could not extend outside the two towns under them. Hence he looks at Hua Xiao as an easy target.

Plus he was able to reach level 82 because of the artifacts he has obtained in the auction. And this boosted his confidence that he would be able to complete his mission.

While looking at the woman, Hua Xiao also noticed the desire on the gaze of Ansen Wine. Though she felt uncomfortable, she did not hate it. The man before him has the strength to back his attitude. If she could entice the man to work with her, then she could gain more.

While they schemed in their minds, Shin Jiao and his companions are now getting ready to leave.
