Chapter 668
(Unedited)
…
Kevin Gart is a tough young man who has been in the immortal land for more than 150 years. He and his brother who has just come to the Pheasant village for more than 20 years have been living a quiet and ordinary life in the village.
In fact, Kevin Gart was considered one of the most trustworthy members of the village. And has gained more merit in the village making him get chosen as a servant after 10 years. He knew that to be chosen one should gain the attention of the protectors and the support of the villagers.
Upon attaining his goal, he left and did not come back for a long time.
But today, he came back with a bunch of protectors and some servants with them. These servants did not pass the selection of the clans and were not chosen hence they have to return to the village and become peasants once again.
As Kevin Gart enters the village bouts of memories flooded his mind. He did not expect that he would be returning to this village after a long time has passed.
He directly went in the direction of his old home. As he alighted from the unicorn beast he is riding he immediately noticed the peaceful surrounding and the familiar feeling.
However, as a protector, he is familiar with the aura in the air. And from that aura, he could tell that his brother which he has left has done many evil things.
This made him frown and suddenly hasten his steps towards the small hut.
As he enters he could immediately feel the figure lying in the bed shivering. He quickly walked towards the bed and carefully scanned the body of that familiar figure. He could sense that the energy in his brother's body is low. It was as if he suffered heavy torture. Kevin is familiar with this aura as he has also joined in and beat up many servants and made them suffer the same fate.
Ever since he became a protector and gained the power enough to fight against those shadow beasts and normal beasts, he has shown his ability and has gained a footing in the clan he has joined.
Seeing his brother like this, he knew that someone has tortured his brother and has inflicted him with a mental demon.
"Little brother… Little brother… what… what happened to you?" Kevin Gart asked as he held his little brother's shoulder.
Hearing that familiar voice, the burly young man which is the bully of the town suddenly felt his body shiver. He then turned his gaze to the familiar figure and then embarrassedly shifted his gaze to the ground.
"Brother… you… you are back…"
"Loi, what happened to you? Who did this to you?" said Kevin Gart in anger.
Loi Gart just kept his head down and did not answer. How could he tell that hellish torture he just experienced? He dare not offend that demon. He knew that even if he could get revenge on that person, his brother would not stay in this place for long. So how could he escape the wrath of that alchemist?
"Tell me, who did this to you?" shouted Kevin as he held his brother's shoulder.
Suddenly, Loi Gart's eyes turned red and flicked his older brother's arms.
"Humph… What can you do about it? You… you left me here alone. You said you will come back. For ten years I have waited for you here. But you did not even send a letter. You left remember… now you want to show your concern?" growled Loi Gart.
In fact, his heart feels helpless in this place. And that helplessness turned into vile actions and then he began to revert back to his old ways on their planet.
"You…" Kevin was not able to say anything.
This is because his brother said was true. After being able to cultivate the universal energy, he became too focused on improving himself hence he forgot about his kin. Plus the competition in the clans is really stiff and dangerous. One wrong move and you will end up in the dungeons. So he dare not be negligent and was very careful.
And now he became a protector which is considered as the next step in gaining power.
And because of that he has gained too much and has already forgotten his past until today.
As he stood up, he heaves a heavy sigh. He felt a bit guilty but he could not do anything for his brother. But if he didn't vent this resentment in his heart, he could not rest easy. He needs to teach that person a lesson.
He needs to show him that he too could torture someone and could hurt them that they would wish they were dead.
Kevin Gart walked out of the hut and rode his stead towards the direction of the group of men who is silently in charge of this Pheasant village.
Inside that hut, those people have already seen the figure of Kevin Gart riding proudly in his stead.
"Sigh… he is here. What should we do?"
"Just tell him the truth. But he could not do anything about this anymore. It seems that the alchemist is already not in the village."
"Then we should just wait for him to die out there. Then he would still come back in this place."
The people in the room just nod their heads and showed a helpless smile on their faces. They should have acted fast that day and stop the alchemist. Before they could form a kind of partnership, their plans have already been foiled.
As the figure of Kevin appear in the door and before he could knock it already opened.
The rest of the people inside showed him a warm welcome.
"Long time no see, Kevin… or should we call you revered protector now." a tall beautiful young man said with a beautiful smile.
His smile made Kevin feel a bit weird.
He clearly knew that this guy is a man, but he could not help and admire the beauty of this person who looks exactly like a goddess.
If not for his rough voice and flat chest, he would really though that this person is a woman.
"Val Opfom, it seems that you're still in this place," Kevin said with a smirk on his handsome face.
"Well, we are here to make sure this village runs smoothly you know…"
Upon hearing that, a sneer appears on Kevin's mouth.
"Run smoothly? You just watch as my brother was tortured by someone… I would really like to punish each of you in this place."
"Humph… Your brother deserves what he got. And I know you know that. You could even feel the thick resentment and dark karma around his hut, now you're telling us to protect someone like that? Humph…" a gruff voice suddenly interrupted Kevin.
Kevin did not say anything. He just looks at that person. He knew that he could not do anything to these people as long as that person is in this place.
"That person taught your brother a lesson, you should be happy about that. Or do you think the law in this place is none existence? I would have done something to your brother a long time ago is not for the respect I have for you… but if you make a move against us, then don't expect me to respect you anymore. Evil should not be tolerated in this place."
Kevin clenched his fist as he knew that what that person said was right. Hence he just turns around and walks towards the door. In his anger, Kevin suddenly punched the wall of the hut.
Boom!
A part of the wall crumbles and this made the rest of the people inside that small hut showed a surprised look on their faces.
"He became stronger now… I fear that the young man would suffer…" that man with a gruff voice muttered.
"Then should we help?"
"No, we cannot. Our job is to make sure those shadow beasts did not destroy this village. Other than that we cannot interfere further."
"As you command, my lord." The rest of the people said as they lower their heads to that person.
Meanwhile, Kevin Gart has already arrived in front of the bungalow and was a bit amazed at the house. He knew how hard it is to use the materials in this world.
Although those trees look weak, yet in truth, they are as strong as steel. And now he is seeing stone crafted in a fashion and many planks of wood on the side with curious workmanship.
"That person seems very capable… but he has offended the wrong person…" Kevin said with a grim expression.
Suddenly, from his waist, he took out his long sword. Then with a wave of his hand, a streak of light appear and cut the house in half.
Bang! Crash!
The house that Shin Jiao practiced his newly created crafting gear was destroyed just like that. Those who are watching from afar gasp in disbelief. Even some of those protectors turn their attention to this place.
One of them rode stead and glance at the area. When she saw the curious workmanship she suddenly frowns.
"What are you doing Protector Gart?" she suddenly said with a stern voice.
When Kevin Gart heard that female voice, his expression turned stiff. However, he immediately recovered and turns to the woman with a fawning look on his face.
I heard that the person in this place has turned into a spy. We must capture him at all cause leader.
The woman's eyes squinted and looked at Kevin with suspicion.
But she didn't ask further and wave her hand.
"Trace that person… if he ran outside, call the hounds." She commanded.
When Kevin Gart heard this a sinister glint appears in his eyes. His heart really wanted to make that guy suffer. This is not a revenge for his brother anymore, but a desire to avenge his pride as a protector. How dare that guy make him lose face in front of his own brother and former friends?
If he didn't vent his resentment in his heart he knew it would affect him in his pursuit of the true Dao of the universe.
As Kevin walks out of the small courtyard, a small figure suddenly jumps inside.
Within the rubbles, that small figure takes out many stones crafted exquisitely as if they are fine marbles.
That small figure suddenly jumps out of the rubble and appears next to the captain of the group.
"Captain, look at this…" the small figure donned in black said as she presented a few items on the woman sitting atop a majestic mount.
She glances at those and at the back of the proud Kevin Gart.
"Interesting… show this to the commander." She commanded.
