The Geared Immortal

Chapter 135 - The Geared Immortal Versus Zombie Cultivator XIII



The Necromancer: Chapter 1

/*unedited*/

It was a very lovely sunny day where the sun golden rays bask the land in its majesty. The lively chirping of the birds echoed throughout the whole forests. In a secluded corner near a small river stream, sat a lonely figure of a woman as she carefully washes some clothes. Not too far from where she sits is a group of young women who would throw her jeering glances as they too wash their clothes.

The lonely young woman has the look of fine beauty. Though she wore simple clothing, yet it accentuates her perfectly curved body. Coupled with her snow-white skin and refined demeanor, she is the dream girl of every boy in town.

But the downside is that she is just a mere mortal, hence though she is beautiful none would dare court her in the village as it would be considered as a wasted effort for the males. Though many have their own design with her and her beauty, though none ever prevails. This is because of her childhood friend, Su Aw.

The young beauty is named Lingling and she has been an orphan ever since her parents disappear a few years ago. She supported herself through hard work and of course with Su Aw's help.

"I really don't like that girl." Suddenly one of the young women in the group wearing a green dress muttered.

"Yeah, I… I mean, why would Su Aw be always beside her? She is just a mere mortal," she added.

"We know that you like Su Aw, that's why you're jealous right?" another young woman wearing red suddenly teased.

"So… I like him because he is kind and good." The girl in green defended.

"It doesn't matter who likes her, the concern is that she is just a mortal. How could any cultivator want to marry such a woman? She would just grow old and die and that man would have wasted his feeling on her." a woman wearing a red dress said as she throws a glance at Lingling.

"Whatever, I just can't bear it when those men would ogle her with those eyes. It really makes my blood boil. Sometimes my master would always reprimand me and make me do more cultivation movements." Another one chimed in.

As the young woman chided and mocked Lingling behind her back, she just sits in that little corner of the river and as if in her own world would just smile every now and then.

Unknown to her a figure stealthily approached her from behind. And suddenly jumped out…

"Wah!!!"

"Yii!!! Su Aw you… You, hateful person!" Lingling shouted as her heart is currently racing as she was totally shocked by what Su Aw did.

Then she hit him with the paddle stick which she uses in washing her clothes.

Unknown to her the water has already seeped through her clothes making them stick to her body. When she stands up to hit Su Aw with the paddle, her beautiful curvy figure was immediately exposed. She didn't notice this but Su Aw upon seeing his childhood friend's beautiful figure almost froze in place. He suddenly found himself unable to remove his eyes on her.

"Lingling is truly beautiful beyond compare." Su Aw thought as a stupid smile suddenly appears on his face.

Upon seeing this, Lingling suddenly had a bad premonition and immediately look down and saw the clothes sticking to her body which even showed the tip of her two mounds.

"Su Aw you jerk!" Lingling shouted as she immediately tried to cover her body with her hands.

She is trying her best to not let her most secretive parts be exposed to the eyes of the rascal in front of her.

Seeing her action Su Aw, immediately turn away and scratched his head shyly. He didn't actually expect to see such a thing today as he only wanted to give her some flowers he picked up while training in the field.

"Hey, Ling! Have you ever thought of going out of this small village? I mean to travel around this vast world?" Su Aw suddenly asks just out of nowhere while his back is against her.

While Su Aw is not looking, Lingling immediately went to get her robe and donned it on her, covering her almost exposed body through the thin fiber of the clothing.

"Hmmm… Why… why would you ask that?" Lingling shyly asked.

When she recalled what happened her face suddenly turned red like a tomato. She did not expect that Su Aw would see her body like that. Although he is her childhood friend, she could deny the fact that Su Aw is one of the strongest men in the village and that he would always show care for her. As a woman, he has already caught her heart, but she is reluctant to show it because of her status as a mere mortal woman.

"Nothing… I… I just wanted to say... would you... would you want to travel with me? I... I wanted to show you the world... because I wanted to be with you always. Without you, by my side, I would rather stay as a mortal than not being with you for eternity." Su Aw said as he slowly turns around.

While walking towards the small creek, he has already made up his mind to say what is in his heart. He has liked Lingling for a very long time, and he didn't care about her status or her family. All he knows is that for the longest time that they were together, he has already learned to like her.

Upon hearing his words, Lingling suddenly felt like her whole world was turned upside down. She didn't think that a cultivator like Su Aw would really fancy her; she always thought that she would just look at him from afar and admire his feats and accomplishments as a cultivator. Then one day when she grows old, she would be happy upon knowing and seeing his mighty self, traverse immortality.

Suddenly tears began to stream down her eyes like broken beads of pearl. No one knows how happy she felt right now, no one except her.

"Lingling, I'm sorry if I hurt you in any way, please don't cry." The caring voice of Su Aw comforted her and he immediately brings her to his embrace.

Lingling was suddenly drowned in his strong arms as if she wanted to melt on them. She wanted to always be held by his love and his strong heartbeat makes her feel that everything is alright in the world.

When Su Aw unconsciously hugs the young woman, he suddenly feels like heaven. The soft body of the maiden in his arms almost made his knees goes weak in delight. He didn't know why but right now, he feels like he could breakthrough anytime soon to the next level of his cultivation.

The surging wave of emotion between the two melded into one making them feel like there are no other people in the world other than themselves.

As the two melted on each other's embrace, they didn't know that a group of women are currently looking at them with an incredulous expression. The whole village knows that the two treated each other as siblings, but they never would have expected that they would end up being a couple.

"Why did he choose that slut? What's so good about her? She is just beautiful, but when she grows old her beauty would vanish. But for us cultivators, our beauty would last for a long time. Why did he choose her?" from the group the young woman in green muttered to herself.

Then a flash of killing intent suddenly appears on her eyes as she looks at the two people oblivious to their surroundings.

"If I cannot have Su Aw, then no one can… I will make sure to get rid of you… you wench." She thought.

This young woman wearing a green dress is Mer Li; she is actually close to Lingling because of Su Aw as she would always follow Su Aw when he is training. So she knows Lingling and can be considered as her friend. But unbeknownst to the two, the person they considered as a friend is actually already plotting something in the dark which would make the lives of the two lovers turn upside-down.

"Hey Mer Li, you're close to Su Aw, right? Why don't you try and talk some sense into him? If he wanted a woman there are many in the village. He should not lower himself and choose a mortal as a wife. This would really not sit well with the masters and the village chief." Suddenly the woman wearing red clothing said as she looks at Mer Li.

Without waiting for a response, she quickly stands up and gathered the clothing she just washed and immediately walks towards the village. In her mind, she wanted to tell this situation so that, they can think of a solution.

"Su Aw is one of the most promising cultivators in the village, this is such a waste." She muttered.

As the group of women walks away, Mer Li turns her gaze back to the couple and threw a poisonous glance at them while she balled her hand into a tight fist and gritted her teeth in jealousy.
