Chapter 113
The old interior and wooden panels of the restaurant made many creaking sounds as a group of people entered its second floor. The people going up are numbering up to 50 with their aura exuding a strong killing intent. All of these people were supposed to be customers of this simple restaurant but then in a blink of an eye, they turned out to be the group of thugs that are plaguing the town.
Though the town's authorities have been trying to find these people, yet all their efforts are wasted as there is a power backing this group up. And now that power is currently standing in front of a young man wearing a simple servant's robe. The young man is looking inconspicuous but then everyone knows that he is not someone to be trifled with. One of their groups has already fallen in his hands, Scarface Fey and his gang. They are all familiar with the ability and strength of Scarface Fey and his crew and is considered as one of the strongest in their circle.
So with this knowledge, everyone wanted to test out the young man's strength and yet at the same time afraid that they would not fairly do well and end up dying like Scarface Fey.
"Young lad, you're very brave to say those bold words. But do you have what it takes to back it up?" Ding Gushan chuckled as he nonchalantly picks some sweets on the table and slowly put it in his mouth.
"I'm quite surprised when my naive little Ya'er told me about you. She foolishly trusted me so much that she blindly told me everything, and upon hearing what you can do, I was truly amazed. With her story and the information I got from the Nian clan, I deduce that you are carrying a legacy with the extreme potential to create wealth. But you are just wasting it while hiding… Now I'll change my condition since you are a very impressive lad, I'll spare you. If you give me the legacy I won't kill you… I'll just wipe your memory clean of this conversation and let you go your own way… What do you say?" Ding Gushan added showing an amiable smile.
He didn't want to attack the young man in front of him as he's not sure whether the legacy is really in him or that he might destroy it in a moment's notice. He discovers from the memories of Scarface Fey and the other guy how fast Shin Jiao's movements are. As a cultivator in the infant soul realm, he himself can barely catch the young man's movements.
So in his opinion, though Shin Jiao might be fast however he still might have a chance if worst comes to worst.
Upon hearing Ding Gushan's condition, Shin Jiao felt a little insulted. He was once a very powerful person. If he only has his cultivation from before he could squish the man into a pulp with just his finger. But of course time has changed, he is just a measly ant in the eyes of the man right now and Shin Jiao wouldn't dare to provoke the man or else he is sure that with a flick of the man's finger he will surely lose his life.
This is where Shin Jiao should tread lightly as he is now playing with his own life. But of course, if worse comes to worse he is not afraid to duke it out with the man even with the cost of his own life. But right now, he still didn't want to do that as he still wants to return, roam this world and grow stronger.
Shin Jiao didn't say anything and just flicked something in the air. Before everyone could react, a smoke suddenly bursts from the small bag of paper. The smoke immediately covered the place in a blink of an eye. It's like a living organism as it covered Shin Jiao's figure.
"What a lousy trick!" the middle-aged man muttered as he immediately scanned the place where Shin Jiao is.
Upon doing so, his complexion turned gloomy. He didn't expect that an ant-like existence was able to escape right in front of his nose. Without a word he immediately spreads his spiritual sense and caught a figure running outside on the streets.
Upon seeing this, the middle-aged man showed a contemptuous sneer.
"Do you think you can escape?" Ding Gushan muttered as he lifted his finger.
This signal made the men surrounding him immediately rushed out of the restaurant and chased after Shin Jiao who is currently running with all his might. He needs to find a safe place to use the teleportation scroll as it would take him around 20 seconds to activate.
But then before he knew it a person suddenly appears beside him and sent him a casual punch which broke through the air making visible ripples.
Boom!!!
Before Shin Jiao knew it, he found himself flying through the air like a cannonball. Then he hit the town's wall while spewing mouthfuls of blood.
Shin Jiao's reaction speed is already superb, but his opponent is not a low-level cultivator. Before he was attacked he clearly saw the spiritual fluctuations on his attacker's body and it's a gold core realm cultivator.
When he looks up he was once again dumbfounded as the one who attacked him is a young woman. He didn't notice is before as the movement of the person was really too fast and his focus was defending.
The young woman is wearing a green body fit cultivator's robe, with red dragon embroidery on its sleeves. The woman's face looks ordinary but her complexion is as white as snow. Although she looks very young however Shin Jiao was amazed and gawked at her cultivation. She is already a middle-stage gold core realm cultivator.
"You're a thief right? With you running that fast and your robe it seems that you've stolen something very important. Hand it over and I'll let you go. If not then, I'll cripple your cultivation and send you to the town's guards." She said with an air of chivalry and righteousness.
Upon hearing this, Shin Jiao was dumbfounded. He is currently being chased by a group of people, how did he just encounter another troublesome fellow? Shin Jiao almost cursed his own luck for being too poor. Because of that punch, Shin Jiao felt that one of his arms was actually fractured. He used his left arm to bear the brunt of the force of the punch. What amazed Shin Jiao is that only his arm was broken and he didn't suffer that much injury. Though he spews a mouth full of blood, however, this is due to him hitting the wall with such a huge force.
"What?! You're still okay after taking my punch? This is interesting… Uncle Yuan, I want him!" the young woman suddenly said with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.
She is looking at Shin Jiao like a new toy that she really wanted to take home.
"Young miss, this is… he is a servant of the Nian clan. We can't just take him with us." An old man's voice suddenly rang out from nowhere and a figure suddenly materializes from behind the young woman.
"You thief, if you come with me I won't give you to the guards." The young woman suddenly flashed a smile.
"Young miss, I am not a thief. I am on an errand to go outside the town and gather some herbs as quickly as I can." Shin Jiao immediately replied.
When he spreads a burst of his absolute sense he saw many familiar people hiding in the shadows. But Shin Jiao didn't saw the middle-aged man who is their leader. The people chasing after him are also showing a fearful expression on their faces, especially when they are looking at the old man behind the young woman.
"Don't worry about that, what can the Nian clan do? If I Wen Kai wanted to get something no one in town can stop me." the young woman said with a tone of indifference in her voice.
"May I remind you of what happened last time when you took that little girl from the Xiong clan mistress. Your master scolded you for the whole day and you were barred from going out of the school for 2 days. Do you want that to happen again?" the old man reminded her with a voice of someone who really cares for the well-being of the young woman.
"Uncle! I'm really interested in his abilities. Look! He just broke a bone after taking my punch. And he is just a first-stage core-forming realm cultivator. How crazy is that? Please uncle, let me have him. I promise I won't let him suffer." She said in a coquettish tone while grabbing one of the old man's hand.
"Sigh… Wen'er, it's not that simple. You know how your father feels about the Nian clan. If possible he didn't want to see any of them. Now you wanted to take this young lad to our manor? What do you think your father would do to him?" the old man refused.
"Umm… that's unfair. Okay, I'll let him go. But I want you to take me to eat something nice today... and also buy me some new clothes okay?" Wen Kai suddenly said with a bit of reluctance in her tone.
She is really curious about who Shin Jiao really is. She thinks that he is not a mortal servant as he is a cultivator and that he is a thief. Maybe he just entered the Nian clan and stole something from them. Then upon having this idea, she suddenly feels that the young man is good.
The enmity between their family and the Nian clan, started when Wei Qi Nian tried to molest her and failed. She is stronger than him and was beaten by her to a pulp. After that day, the Nian clan head started to give pressure to her dad in the sect and this causes the two to have a clash endlessly.
Shin Jiao heaves a sigh of relief when the young woman's interest in him faded. Right now all he wanted to do is to find a place where he can use the teleportation scroll. But then before he can think of anything else he saw another group of people whom he immediately recognized. And like a strike of unlucky circumstance one after another, Shin Jiao immediately cursed his damned luck.
Five men wearing a different colored cultivator's robe with an insignia of the Nian clan are actually coming into the town through the gate. The group immediately spotted Shin Jiao as he is still leaning against the wall with some blood on his mouth.
Before the group could react, Shin Jiao bolted from his position and ran away while holding his left hand. While running he took out a pill from his pouch and put it in his mouth. He then feels the warm power coursing through his body and into his arm.
"Hey! It's him! Go tell the first elder, we'll go and catch him." one of the young men which looks like their leader quickly said as he too took off following Shin Jiao's path.
As the group chases after Shin Jiao, some people in the shadows also trailed after him. Now many people started to chase after his fleeing figure. Shin Jiao choose a crowded place so that he can use some of his skills. He didn't know if it would work on cultivators thought, so Shin Jiao darted towards the market place.
The marketplace is the busiest place in the town. Many people mingle in this place, mortals and cultivators alike. Shin Jiao webbed through the crowd like a loach in the water. His movement was like practiced and he easily integrates himself with the crowd. The people chasing after him was a little dumbfounded at the scene they are seeing in front of them. Though they can use their spiritual sense, still the number of people is truly numerous. So without a choice, the group enters the market area and slowly combs it.
Meanwhile, atop one of the establishments the young woman Wen Kai has her eyes glued at the figure of Shin Jiao. She could not help but be amazed as his figure suddenly melds with the crowd. Even the old man in front of her who is also looking down felt amazed. If he didn't see it, he could not believe that it is true. In just a few moves, Shin Jiao transformed from being a servant of the Nian clan into a blue-robed rogue cultivator wearing two long daggers behind his back.
The way he took the things in those vendors was too smooth that they didn't even notice they already lost a part of their inventory.
"See! Uncle! I told you he is a thief! And a very good one at that… it seems that the Nian clan members are chasing after him. I knew I was right…" Wen Kai said with a hint of excitement in her tone.
"Thief? More like an assassin, or a spy. If we are not up here, I doubt that even I could find him in this crowd. This is truly interesting…" the old man muttered.
Upon hearing the praise of her uncle for Shin Jiao, Wen Kai suddenly displayed a teasing smile.
"I know that look uncle. I know that because of me you are here right? And you are also looking for something?" Wen Kai suddenly asked.
The old man just nods his head without giving her a reply as he continues to sip his tea while his eyes glued to Shin Jiao.
Meanwhile, Shin Jiao has already changed his clothes and seeing that no one was able to follow him, he heaves a sigh of relief. He immediately turns from a corner and disappears from the market place.
When Shin Jiao's figure disappeared, Wen Kai and the old man also suddenly disappear from their seats. The other people continue to comb the market looking for Shin Jiao's traces. But no matter how hard they tried they found no one. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.
...
Meanwhile, in the Nian clan manor, Wei Qi Nian suddenly showed an excited look on his face upon hearing that they have found traces of Shin Jiao. Then he suddenly flashed a sneer on the young woman behind him who is sitting beside a very handsome looking young man.
When the two heard the news about Shin Jiao, their faces are filled with worry. No matter how the clan tried to extract information out of them, they didn't budge. Even Rat Ling who suffered severe punishment didn't open his mouth and told them about Shin Jiao. But because of his cultivation, the clan head decided to just let him go.
But now that they got the news about the young crafter, Jin Nian immediately dispatches their clan elders and experts just to find the young man. They would not let him fall to other people's hands.
Each of them already has designs in their minds as to what to do next when the young man is captured. And for sure, it would not be a good thing for Shin Jiao.
"Get the mortal servant alive. If anything happens to him, I will give that person a severe punishment. I repeat no matter what, get him alive!"
When Jin Nian said this everyone in the clan hall was dumbfounded. They didn't know what the clan head's plan is, but it seems that there is something going on.

And now that power is currently standing in front of a young man wearing a simple servant's robe. The young man is looking inconspicuous but then everyone knows that he is not someone to be trifled with. One of their groups has already fallen in his hands, Scarface Fey and his gang. They are all familiar with the ability and strength of Scarface Fey and his crew and is considered as one of the strongest in their circle.
So with this knowledge, everyone wanted to test out the young man's strength and yet at the same time afraid that they would not fairly do well and end up dying like Scarface Fey.

An old man's voice suddenly rang out from nowhere and a figure suddenly materializes from behind the young woman. "You thief, if you come with me I won't give you to the guards." The young woman suddenly flashed a smile. "Young miss, I am not a thief. I am on an errand to go outside the town and gather some herbs as quickly as I can." Shin Jiao immediately replied. When he spreads a burst of his absolute sense he saw many familiar people hiding in the shadows. But Shin Jiao didn't saw the middle-aged man who is their leader. The people chasing after him are also showing a fearful expression on their faces, especially when they are looking at the old man behind the young woman. "Don't worry about that, what can the Nian clan do? If I Wen Kai wanted to get something no one in town can stop me." the young woman said with a tone of indifference in her voice. "May I remind you of what happened last time when you took that little girl from the Xiong clan mistress. Your master scolded you for the whole day and you were barred from going out of the school for 2 days. Do you want that to happen again?" the old man reminded her with a voice of someone who really cares for the well-being of the young woman. "Uncle! I'm really interested in his abilities. Look! He just broke a bone after taking my punch. And he is just a first-stage core-forming realm cultivator. How crazy is that? Please uncle, let me have him. I promise I won't let him suffer." She said in a coquettish tone while grabbing one of the old man's hand. "Sigh Wen'er, it's not that simple. You know how your father feels about the Nian clan. If possible he didn't want to see any of them. Now you wanted to take this young lad to our manor? What do you think your father would do to him?" the old man refused. "Umm that's unfair. Okay, I'll let him go. But I want you to take me to eat something nice today... and also buy me some new clothes okay?" Wen Kai suddenly said with a bit of reluctance in her tone. She is really curious about who Shin Jiao really is. She thinks that he is not a mortal servant as he is a cultivator and that he is a thief. Maybe he just entered the Nian clan and stole something from them. Then upon having this idea, she suddenly feels that the young man is good. The enmity between their family and the Nian clan, started when Wei Qi Nian tried to molest her and failed. She is stronger than him and was beaten by her to a pulp. After that day, the Nian clan head started to give pressure to her dad in the sect and this causes the two to have a clash endlessly. Shin Jiao heaves a sigh of relief when the young woman's interest in him faded. Right now all he wanted to do is to find a place where he can use the teleportation scroll. But then before he can think of anything else he saw another group of people whom he immediately recognized. And like a strike of unlucky circumstance one after another, Shin Jiao immediately cursed his damned luck. Five men wearing a different colored cultivator's robe with an insignia of the Nian clan are actually coming into the town through the gate. The group immediately spotted Shin Jiao as he is still leaning against the wall with some blood on his mouth. Before the group could react, Shin Jiao bolted from his position and ran away while holding his left hand. While running he took out a pill from his pouch and put it in his mouth. He then feels the warm power coursing through his body and into his arm. "Hey! It's him! Go tell the first elder, we'll go and catch him." one of the young men which looks like their leader quickly said as he too took off following Shin Jiao's path. As the group chases after Shin Jiao, some people in the shadows also trailed after him. Now many people started to chase after his fleeing figure. Shin Jiao choose a crowded place so that he can use some of his skills. He didn't know if it would work on cultivators thought, so Shin Jiao darted towards the market place. The marketplace is the busiest place in the town. Many people mingle in this place, mortals and cultivators alike. Shin Jiao webbed through the crowd like a loach in the water. His movement was like practiced and he easily integrates himself with the crowd. The people chasing after him was a little dumbfounded at the scene they are seeing in front of them. Though they can use their spiritual sense, still the number of people is truly numerous. So without a choice, the group enters the market area and slowly combs it. Meanwhile, atop one of the establishments the young woman Wen Kai has her eyes glued at the figure of Shin Jiao. She could not help but be amazed as his figure suddenly melds with the crowd. Even the old man in front of her who is also looking down felt amazed. If he didn't see it, he could not believe that it is true. In just a few moves, Shin Jiao transformed from being a servant of the Nian clan into a blue-robed rogue cultivator wearing two long daggers behind his back. The way he took the things in those vendors was too smooth that they didn't even notice they already lost a part of their inventory. "See! Uncle! I told you he is a thief! And a very good one at that it seems that the Nian clan members are chasing after him. I knew I was right" Wen Kai said with a hint of excitement in her tone. "Thief? More like an assassin, or a spy. If we are not up here, I doubt that even I could find him in this crowd. This is truly interesting" the old man muttered. Upon hearing the praise of her uncle for Shin Jiao, Wen Kai suddenly displayed a teasing smile. "I know that look uncle. I know that because of me you are here right? And you are also looking for something?" Wen Kai suddenly asked. The old man just nods his head without giving her a reply as he continues to sip his tea while his eyes glued to Shin Jiao. Meanwhile, Shin Jiao has already changed his clothes and seeing that no one was able to follow him, he heaves a sigh of relief. He immediately turns from a corner and disappears from the market place. When Shin Jiao's figure disappeared, Wen Kai and the old man also suddenly disappear from their seats. The other people continue to comb the market looking for Shin Jiao's traces. But no matter how hard they tried they found no one.

Meanwhile, in the Nian clan manor, Wei Qi Nian suddenly showed an excited look on his face upon hearing that they have found traces of Shin Jiao. Then he suddenly flashed a sneer on the young woman behind him who is sitting beside a very handsome looking young man. When the two heard the news about Shin Jiao, their faces are filled with worry. No matter how the clan tried to extract information out of them, they didn't budge. Even Rat Ling who suffered severe punishment didn't open his mouth and told them about Shin Jiao. But because of his cultivation, the clan head decided to just let him go. But now that they got the news about the young crafter, Jin Nian immediately dispatches their clan elders and experts just to find the young man. They would not let him fall to other people's hands. Each of them already has designs in their minds as to what to do next when the young man is captured. And for sure, it would not be a good thing for Shin Jiao. "Get the mortal servant alive. If anything happens to him, I will give that person a severe punishment. I repeat no matter what, get him alive!" When Jin Nian said this everyone in the clan hall was dumbfounded. They didn't know what the clan head's plan is, but it seems that there is something going on.
