Chapter 819 - A Mage’s Pride



Chapter 819

(Unedited)

Around a hundred people are on the ground with muddled expressions on their faces as they did not know what is happening around them. Then they all noticed that they are all inside a forest. A young man in dilapidated clothes extended his hand but there seem to be an invisible wall in front of him.

The man is not the only one that has discovered this as many others like him who are near the barrier have discovered the invisible wall.

"What… what is this? What is happening?" the man said with fear in his eyes.

"I think we are inside some kind of prison…" a woman beside him said while she also extended her hand to the barrier.

"Do you know what kind of magic is this?" the man asked.

"I\'m not sure… If only I still have my power, then I might be able to analyze this thing." She said with a frown.

"Oh, right… you\'re that famous witch living inside the forest. I heard that you\'ve been studying the barrier that kept us from going outside." the man suddenly said with a surprised look in his eyes.

The man has recognized the woman because he suddenly saw the small emblem on her tattered robe.

The woman looks down as she did not want to say anything about it. In fact, getting captured was her shame.

She was once a court mage and upon reaching the Arch-mage realm, she decided to go to the nearest wall that is separating the large kingdom of Xinglo from the outside world of the immortals. She wanted to learn of the secret of the wall and how to open a path to the outside world.

Although she is a court mage she is not privy to the information about a doorway to the outside world unlike Im Ao and Im Jae\'s father. So according to normal knowledge, it is impossible to exit this kingdom because of that invisible wall that looks like a tall cliff but is unscalable.

And so she devoted most of her time to researching about the wall. And with her are some of the mages who decided to assist her for a better cause.

But who would have known that one day they would encounter a horde of beasts in the forest while outside of their base? One by one her, companions died and there are only two of them are left, she and a young man who would always follow her.

She has exhausted her power and became wounded from the beast attacks. Then who would have known that the young man would suddenly push her in the mouth of a beast?

The beast attacks but instead of biting her, it shifted its position, and using its large paw it hit her making her fly to a tree.

A beast was provoked as it looks like the young man attacked it, so without hesitation, it suddenly jumps and snaps the young mage\'s neck into two.

The woman woke up and found herself inside a prison with her wounds already healed. She did not know what had happened. But upon touching the slave collar on her neck she knew that she seems to have been rescued, but was turned into a slave.

As an Arch-mage she has her pride and wanted to protest with this treatment, however, who would have known that the slave trader shop would not bother with her and even isolate her for being too loud.

The woman became desperate and her pride as a powerful mage was crushed. She learned that no matter how powerful she was as a mage, she would still be a mere mortal. Though reaching the Archmage level her lifespan could reach more than 200 years, she is still a mere mortal and would someday die.

She learned of the world outside the Xinglo kingdom, a world where people could live eternally without the fear of death, a world of immortals.

But everything is over; her life would be over since she is now a slave.

But then this phenomenon in front of her seems to have awoken something in her heart. She knew that there is a chance for her to escape, she knew that she could once again gain her powers back if only she can play her cards right.

Suddenly the group of slave\'s attention was caught by the rustling of leaves.

Then from the bushes, four people walked out from the bushes.

Out of the four people, three of them suddenly showed dumbfounded expressions on their faces upon seeing a large group of slaves in front of them.

"Master… what… what if happening?" Im Jae asked with confusion in her beautiful eyes.

"How… how did these slaves get here?" Nariz Gumal also asked upon noticing the slave collars on those in front of them.

"Well, that woman used almost all of her magical power to get these people in here…" Shin Jiao said with a smile on his face.

"So, that\'s why you let her escape? Because… you are grateful to her?" Nariz Gumal asked with a slightly mocking tone.

"Haha… Well, yes, partly… But I want her to be a warning to all the other mage towers. The next time they see us, they would think twice before gaining out wrath…" Shin Jiao said with a smirk.

He then stood in front of the people inside the invisible barrier.

"Alright, listen up!" Shin Jiao shouted gaining the attention of every slave inside the barrier.

"My name is Shin Jiao, and all of you are now under me. I don\'t know how long I will have to stay in this place, but while staying here, I don\'t want to be bothered that much. So all of you will be working under me." He said while looking at the faces of the people inside the barrier.

These are all mages of different strengths and power. He has learned this through the slave shop. If he could get these people to work under him, he would not have to worry about troublesome matters and concentrate on his true goals in coming to this place.

To discover how this place was created, learn what happened to the parents of Im Ao and Im Jae, and find the brother of Nariz Gumal.

These three are his goals in this place. He wanted to finish this before the Heaven and Earth Opening would start in the Immortal Land.

The slaves look at each other with a dismayed expression. They thought that they could escape their fate, but instead, they would still be treated as slaves in the end.

The expressions of the people in front of Shin Jiao did not bother him much. He then turns his gaze to the carriage not too far from them.

"The five of you some out…" Shin Jiao called.

The second carriage door opened and five individuals came out wearing proper cultivator\'s robes. The style of the robes in the Immortal Land varied in each clan territory. In the Long Clan, most immortals wore Eastern-type robes and gowns, just like that in Wuxia movies.

So the attire of the five caught the attention of the slaves inside the barrier.

Shin Jiao and his group are not wearing mage robes but instead the same thing that warriors usually wear in the Xinglo Kingdom. This is one of the reasons why mages would look down on them and mistake them for mere warriors.

As the group of Xiamen Gong walks out, they showed a look of worry in their eyes. They have seen what had happened a while ago. They saw how a large group of people suddenly appear where those slave collars that they were supposed to be wearing were put in a formation.

Shin Jiao looks at the people in front of him and showed a faint smile on his face.

"I will give you only one chance… Will you work for me, or return to the slave trader shop… your choice." Shin Jiao said as he did not bother with them and walk towards the corner of the first carriage.

"You five, since you are a burden here… please help remove the collars of those who wanted to work with us…" Shin Jiao said as he began taking out food ingredients from his dimension.

The five showed reluctance in their faces, especially Ansen Wine. He was a proud warrior who has reached level 82, a lord level in the Immortal Land. So how could he accept being commanded just like a servant?

However, he could not say anything at this point. He knew of his mistakes and that his schemes have put them in danger this time. So he decided to lay low and wait. He would just bide his time and strike in an opportune moment.

Not long later, a few slaves have already stood up and agreed to work for Shin Jiao. One of them is a tall and slender woman. Though she wore tattered clothing, she stood proudly and aloft and carried the pride and dignity of a mage.

When Im Ao and Im Jae noticed the woman, a surprised expression appears on their faces.

"It\'s our teacher! Teacher Jiang!…"
