The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1438

War of the Gods and Demons: Chapter 38

…

Xin Ja felt a bit weird as the colonel seem to be very eager to please him. The fawning smile on that middle-aged man's face made him feel goosebumps on his skin.

After taking a seat on the sofa, Xin Ja was served some snacks and tea.

He did not say anything and just waited. Not long later, before Colonel Saff could say something he suddenly received a call that made his expression change. Then a slightly angry expression appears as he gripped the handle of the phone in his hand tightly.

"Is something wrong, Colonel Sir?" Xin Ja asked after seeing the changes in the expression of the man before him.

"This… It seems that trouble is coming our way…" the colonel muttered as he felt a bit conflicted.

He did not know if he should grab this chance to protect the young man before him, or just surrender him to that person.

He felt confused as to how those people have known that the young man Adam Summers is here in the city. But he is also not that surprised.

Because of the searches for that name which seemed to have been tagged by those different forces, he knew that sooner or later those people will find out about his guess. But he did not expect that the first one to contact him is that person.

Though he is not afraid of that person, he is just a bit concerned about the ways that person does things.

Ruthless like a demon and cunning like a human… many called him a demon in a human's skin.

In fact, after the demons have assimilated with the humans in this world, many discovered them to be better when it comes to following the rules.

As long as the rules estates something, they would really follow it by the letter.

This is the reason why there were too ferocious as an enemy, while likable as an ally.

From the door, a loud bang happened as if the door was kicked open. Then three people waltz inside like they were the owner of the place.

They look around and when their eyes landed on Xin Ja, a strange gleam appears on the leader of the three.

"You… come with me now…" he commanded while pointing at Xin Ja.

With no ounce of respect in his tone and as if he was the one who was in charge of everything, the man just sneered.

Xin Ja looks at the guy and shook his head as he calmly took a sip of the tea.

His action suddenly made the man leading the three turn hostile. He personally went to this place just to get this man who is very important in their plans.

But as someone from a rich and powerful clan, he has always exerted his influence in the army, hence his arrogant attitude.

But who would have thought that someone would ignore him like he is nothing? And this action of that person has hurt his ego.

"So what if you are an important person? You cannot just ignore this master…!" is what the man thought.

"Get him!" he commanded to the two people wearing hoods standing behind him.

As soon as the two moved, they flashed on Xin Ja's left and right sides.

But before they could even touch his clothes, they were both sent flying away.

One was sent tumbling to the ground while being sent out of the door while the other hits the window shattering it into pieces as he landed outside.

Those two are demons following the command of the man.

"You dare resist?! Do you know who I am!?" the man shouted not backing down even after seeing the strength of Xin Ja.

At this time, Xin Ja puts the cup on the table and slowly stood up. A flash of contempt appears in his eyes.

"Young man… It is not worth it to clash with his clan…" Colonel Saff warned.

"I do not care… As long as someone offends me, I always make sure that they learn their lesson…" Xin Ja said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the man showed fear on his face. He knew that he would need to use his trump card if this man fought. And if he killed this guy, then the clan would be displeased with him. But his pride would not let him back down.

"I will warn you in the name of Abernathy clan… Surrender now…" he warned.

"Another idiot who uses his clan's influence to threaten me…" Xin Ja scoffed.

"You would not want to fight inside the room of an officer would you?" suddenly a calm voice interrupted them.

A middle-aged-looking officer walked inside the room and glared at the man.

"Go back and wait for your punishment…" the middle-aged officer said with a warning tone.

The man seems a bit annoyed but then gritted his teeth as he turns back.

But before he could walk out of the room, he felt a slight stinging pain in his right leg before he falls to his knees.

"A dog should learn how to kneel… before leaving." Xin Ja said with a slight smile.

The man is not thoroughly angered as he wanted to stand up and attack Xin Ja. But then suddenly he found that his knee is very painful.

"I think he has learned his lesson…" the middle-aged officer said with an apologetic smile.

"I think he would want revenge… I am going to say this now… I will kill him… if he came after me." Xin Ja said frankly.

The middle-aged officer did not say anything.

Two soldiers escorted the man out as he glared at Xin Ja with hatred. He was really ashamed this time and he swore in his heart that he would take that person's life no matter what.

"Young man… that is the grandson of a Rank-A awakened. You…"

"I do not care about that… Tell me… Sir, what do you come for me for?" asked Xin Ja while waving his hand.

"Hmm… The Abernathy clan would want you to be on our side…" the middle-aged officer gets right to the point.

"What can you offer?" Xin Ja asked.

"Name your price…"

"Can you stop the Y System Incorporated portal testing?" he asked.

When the people in the room heard this, they all showed a suspicious look in their eyes.

"Why?" the middle-aged officer and Colonel Saff suddenly asked simultaneously.

"If the portal opens up far too big… Then every living person on this side of the planet except for the demons will die…" he said while looking at the entrance of the door.

Xin Ja is not afraid to expose this thing and he is also not afraid of anyone in this place.

Though there is a possibility of the plan being executed early that would be to his advantage as he could detect the strong fluctuation and could automatically teleport to that place and stop them.

From the entrance two people are now standing…, General Grain and Rank-A Cohan Vale.

"It's been a long time…, Sir." Xin Ja greeted.

"Hmm… Yeah, I did not expect that as soon as you arrive you would create such trouble for us…" Cohan Vale said with a smile.

"You've been to the other side?" Cohan asked.

"Nope… I've been here the whole time. I was just… cultivating." Xin Ja replied frankly.

Everyone was a bit dumbfounded except for Cohan Vale.

Cultivating for 5 years? That is something that they could not fathom, but Cohan who already has part of his memory recovered knows that what Xin Ja is saying is possible.

"You said about the portal… Why did you say so?" General Grain asked as he walked inside the room while Cohan Vale closes it.

They did not even bother with the middle-aged officer and the other soldiers in the room.

The group then got seated on the sofa.

Xin Ja began explaining to them what he had seen in the lake near the main road.

"You mean that a mysterious lake is a place where there is a portal to connect the two worlds?" Cohan Vale asked with a surprised expression.

If he could, he would have already run out and checked that place out. But hearing that the place is already destroyed and gone, he could not help but calms himself down.

"So the effect of the portal is actually like this… If we go to the other side we would explode, and when those from the other side go here, they would implode… The only ones not affected are the… beasts and the demons…" General Grain sums it all up.

Xin Ja nodded his head in affirmation.

"Then… how about you? Why were you not affected?" the middle-aged officer suddenly asked.

"I am a bit special… I can go to both worlds without suffering any consequence…" Xin Ja said with a smile.

Cohan Vale was thinking deeply for a moment, but then his head lifted, and looks at Xin Ja.

"It's your cultivation… You are cultivating a strange technique that is not like the one we are using, right?" he suddenly asked.

Xin Ja could not help but admire the thinking of Cohan Vale.

As someone who is highly valued by the government and is the number one force in the war against the demons before, he truly has a sharp mind.
