Heroes and Villains: Chapter 9

/*unedited*/

On top of a tall cliff, two figures which blended through the shadows lay flat near its edge. These two figures are Shin Jiao and the young woman Jiyi. After traveling through the woods, Shin Jiao has already found the location of the village but decided to go to a vantage point to observe the situation. And from where he is, he saw and watched what had happened. Unlike other cultivators, Shin Jiao uses technology to spy on his surroundings. With that, he can immediately ascertain which direction he would take and not blindly run and follow traps set up by his enemies.

While on his position, he uses his goggles he carefully watches the situation because until now he still cannot figure out how to kill those zombie cultivators which is his actually causing him a headache. Then the fight between Jing Do and the three zombies suddenly gave Shin Jiao some ideas and hints.

When he saw how those cultivators turn into a zombie, a glint of insight shone through his eyes.

"That seems feasible… if my conjecture is correct then that is their weakness. Damn it! I should have thought about it earlier. It's just hiding in plain sight." Shin Jiao muttered to himself.

"Umm… master Shin, what's wrong? Aren't we going to rescue your friends?" Jiyi who is also lying on the ground beside him suddenly asked.

"Ah, yes we are… and we will, but not now we must observe first." Shin Jiao said.

But suddenly Jiyi turns to the side and accidentally showed her ample bosom which made Shin Jiao suddenly unable to take his eyes off from them. It has been long since he last had a woman as he was way too focused on cultivating and surviving, he has almost forgotten how having a woman feel like. While looking at those white ample rabbits, Shin Jiao could not help himself to think about Qin Lou whom he has given his heart. He is not sure if she would wait for him, or if she is still hoping that he is alive.

But deep in his heart, if Qin Lou could not wait then he is willing to let her go. His heart has already been broken twice, so having it broken the third time made it easier for him to accept it.

Shin Jiao had not noticed it, but when he started to be silent, Jiyi actually turns her head towards him and saw Shin Jiao looking towards her bosom. But what she discovers is that the young man is not ogling her bosom like a lecherous person, but instead, his eyes show melancholy and sadness. Instead of getting angry, she suddenly felt pity.

Then she shifted her body and covers her bosom which made Shin Jiao woke up from his stupor. Jiyi's face right now is beat red out of shyness. She didn't know if she wanted to reprimand him or console him. But when she saw the handsome face of Shin Jiao looking a little pitiful, she wanted to pat his head and say "it's alright".

But then she remembers that he is just someone she just met and saved her.


"Ahhh… So… sorry about that. I… I didn't mean to…" Shin Jiao stuttered while his face suddenly turns red because of feeling ashamed of his own actions.

Before Jiyi could reply their attention was caught by something from the monitor on Shin Jiao's hand. Shin Jiao also noticed it, so he immediately put on his goggles and turns his attention towards the village covered in mist. And there he saw movements from the outer wall of the village. The things he thought were statues are actually moving creatures. Upon closer look now, Shin Jiao can now see vague figures from the Qi undulation of those shadows like beings.

He didn't notice it at first because they were not moving. But now it seems that those creatures are moving towards the village slowly. Then while observing, he suddenly noticed that the figures of Jin Fu and the rest seems to be fake. Even his goggles can't detect whether they are an illusion or real. Yet with his acute sense and observation, he immediately noticed the loop on their movements.

Then he saw the panic on the woman next to the man sitting on a stone throne. But before she could make a move, Shin Jiao was suddenly blinded by a bright light. Then a loud deafening sound almost made the two of them jump up from where they lay.

"What the heck happened? That was like a huge bomb… what… what happened to… Oh no! Shit…" Shin Jiao suddenly felt panicked.

He turns his gaze towards the now ruined arena which is now replaced by a large mushroom cloud. Shin Jiao's heart is beating fast because he didn't want anything to happen to Jin Fu. So he used the monitor and switches it to the camera on his armor.

When he saw that Jin Fu is actually now in the mansion area he heaves a sigh of relief.

"They actually think of this strategy… I guess they felt that they have no chance against this necromancer." Shin Jiao muttered as he continues to observe what's happening in the village.

Then suddenly from the corner of his eyes, he saw three figures slowly escaping the site. They look pitiful and seem to be wounded severely.

"Ah… So there are still some survivors." Shin Jiao said as he turns his gaze to the three figures slowly walking towards the deep forest.

Then his eyes seem to have caught on something as he suddenly focused them on the man being supported by the woman.

"He is the one holding the soul essence. But why is it that his life force and Qi seems to be fading." Shin Jiao thought.

But before he could think anything else, he saw a Dark sinister Qi which seems to be a ghost, slowly comes out of the man without him and the people around him noticing it. With the emergence of the Dark sinister Qi, all the shadows surrounding the town actually moved towards their location.

Shin Jiao become baffled by this situation. He didn't expect that the soul essence has become malevolent. Now another headache is coming his way. He can fight cultivators, but how can he fight a ghost?

With this question, his gaze turns towards Jiyi who is also showing a shocked expression as she watches the monitor.

"Hey, Jiyi… Do you know how to kill ghosts?" Shin Jiao asked with hesitation.

"Umm… ghost are easy to deal with. They're also souls but stronger. So you have to use a stronger fire spell or lightning to destroy one. Or if you can cast holy Qi, then ghost would be afraid of you. But as a balance, holy Qi can only purify ghosts it could not destroy it. Here take this; you can learn some simple fire and holy techniques in this book." Jiyi said as she waved her hand and takes out a scroll for her spatial tool.

"Thank you." Shin Jiao said as he takes the scroll.

Then using his absolute sense, he was able to retrieve the information from the scroll into his mind.

"Ah… so this is level 2 fire and holy techniques…" Shin Jiao muttered after a while.

"Well, let's go… we are going to do some ghost hunting." Shin Jiao said as he carefully stood up.

He also lifted up Jiyi, as both of her hands have been severed.

Seeing her condition, Shin Jiao could not help but sigh. A beautiful young woman was suddenly turned invalid; if he didn't help her then she could just waste her life and slowly accept death. But since she met Shin Jiao, it is her luck. Right now, Shin Jiao is already thinking of a way to create an artificial arm for her since he has already taken her as one of his people. Plus he is really interested in her physique which can hold multiple souls. If he can discover and help her progress, then she would be a great addition to his community the underground base.

"Jiyi we need to move fast this time. I will carry you okay." Shin Jiao said as he looks at her.

Upon hearing that she would be carried by Shin Jiao, Jiyi's face suddenly turned crimson. In this world, physical contact between an unmarried man and woman is strictly prohibited, though there are some who have freedom in doing things, still, Jiyi is a traditional woman. Though she's been living and roaming the world alone, except being held by a man, this would be her first time.

"I'm sorry if it would inconvenience you, but we need to act fast." Shin Jiao explained.

"Master Shin… I'm… I'm okay." Jiyi replied.

Though she feels reluctant just when her eyes saw both of her arms, she suddenly feels a tinge of gloominess in her heart. She knows that Shin Jiao would be the only person who would treat her this way from now on. With her disability, she would be treated like trash in this world. So though she is hesitant, but she just accepted the kind offer.

Shin Jiao didn't know what to say, as he slowly walks closer to her side and carefully grabs her waist.

"I'm going to activate your cloaking." Shin Jiao said beside her ear.

When she feels her hot breath, Jiyi could not help herself and blush. Now her face is as red as a ripe tomato. Shin Jiao didn't notice this and just activated her cloak, and also his. Then the two of them suddenly disappear from where they stood and only the gust of wind is left.
