The Urban Dao Child

Yue Ling shook her head and she and Yue Yun followed the boy in the sky. The trio went back home smiling and laughing. At the Yang Family domain, the atmosphere looked unlike what they had left. The trio came out of the teleportation channel and Yue Ling frowned. She said, "Dao, go back to your room." 

Yang Dao looked at her in confusion but after that, he left with a nod. Yue Yun looked at Yue Ling and said, "Young Miss, do not be too stern." 

Yue Ling nodded and said, "You go, watch over him." 

Yue Yun bowed and left the place to follow Yang Dao who was skipping to his room. He was aware that his protector was following him so he asked, "Granny Yun, who is visiting us? This strong spirit fluctuation seems like a nascent soul practitioner." 

Yue Yun was not surprised, it has been five years since the boy began to cultivate and from the first day only he was able to discern the fluctuations in the spirit energy. She replied, "It is someone from your mother's family." 

Yang Dao paused in his tracks and asked, "Do the two families have strong tension between them?"

Yue Yun sighed and nodded, "Yes." 

Yang Dao said, "I was told that the two families are on good terms. Did they not send a gift on all my birthdays? Also, what is the cause of this tension." 

Yue Yun said, "How about we talk about it inside your room?" 

The boy nodded and walked inside the palace, through the corridors he made his way back to the room. On the way, he noticed something in the eyes of the servants, they gazed at him with some complications. The boy had not minded if the emotion was negative but he did mind the complications. In his view, complications were a bigger problem than negativity. The long things stay complicated the easier it becomes to tip the scale. To regain the balance it will need a lot of effort and time. 

Thus he innately disliked this complicated vibe in life. He frowned as he walked back inside his room. He did not like this situation. Yue Yun could sense his emotions and closed the door of the room.

The room was very big and very luxurious. It was filled with fine wooden furniture, a crystal chandelier hung down the ceiling. A king-size bed, opposite to it lied a sofa set. The boy sat down on a chair and Yue Yun sat down across from him. He asked, "Granny Yue. Tell me now." 

Yue Yun looked at him and said with some hesitation, "Your maternal family is the Yue family. They are located ten light-years away from here. Do you remember the distribution of the family status?" 

Yang Dao nodded and said, "Families who can manage and oversee more than three planets are called medium grade families, the lower ones have more than one planet. The higher-grade families have more than five planets." 

Yue Yun nodded and said, "Above these grades lie another level. This level is not mentioned in the normal books you have read. These families are called Overlords, controlling over more than ten planets. Yue family owns fifteen planets to the date they have established. They are an existence that a lot of people can not even think about. 

Young Miss was the only child of the master of the family, and she met your father on an expedition. Yang Shan killed a few people to save her from the onslaught. The two became friends and gradually fell in love. Master and Mistress agreed to their union but they gave a condition." 

Yue Yun passed and Yang Dao raised his eyebrow, he asked, "What was the condition?" 

The old lady replied in a low voice, "To hand over the child born to them, to take over their family in the stead of young mistress. This child must be their firstborn. It was a dao heart oath. If they did not fulfill it, then their cultivation base will relapse to nothing." 

Yang Dao opened his eyes wide in shock. He did not expect such a thing to have happened. He asked, "My parents probably thought of trying to convince the Yue family to do otherwise, no?" 

Yue Yun shook her head and said, "The reason was that Young Miss could not conceive a child. Later on, Master Yang Shan found a natural herb when he found that your mother was always stiff around children. She wanted her kids. The master explored all the places that he could and finally, he found the rejuvenation lotus. 

The lotus was fought over by a lot of people but in the end, Master managed to get it after almost dying in the process. The mistress then had you after her body was cured. We did not expect the Yue family to come over this quickly. They wanted to take you away when you were born, but the mistress fought hard and managed to take your custody over for sixteen years. However, we did not expect them to come over so quickly." 

Yang Dao sat down on the chair with his eyes closed as he heard all this. His mind was very worked up at the moment. Suddenly just when he was concluding, he heard a loud voice, "You Dare!!!"

This voice belonged to his mother. Yang Dao stood up from his chair and said, "Granny Yue, we are going to the meeting place now." 

Yue Yun was surprised by the shout, she wanted to go out but she did not want to let Yang Dao watch his maternal family fighting over him. She was hesitating when she heard a calm voice, "The more you hide or run away from the problem the bigger it becomes and the more it pursues." 

Yue Yun was still hesitant when Yang Dao erupted with an aura that scared the hell out of her as he asked her coldly, "Will you not take me over?" 

This scene happened once in the past and Yang Dao almost destroyed the practice ground for his level. The reason was him being treated like a treasure by the instructors. He disliked that and somehow erupted with his aura. It has been three years since then. The family had learned to treat him harshly when in training, and gently when at home. 

The boy had learned to tap into the aura condensation and spirit fluctuations. Yue Yun nodded instinctively and said, "Come with me." 

She was a peak golden stage practitioner but this boy in front of her was no ordinary human. She decided to follow his command and the two people left the room. They arrived at the guest hall and could sense a strong pressure radiating from inside the hall. 

Yang Dao did not bother and walked inside the hall. It was as if his body was not bothered by all this pressure. He spotted his grandparents and his family members inside the gathering hall. They all had a bitter look on their faces. The boy scanned the room. He found a guy with an arrogant expression standing in front of his mother, with his gaze pointed at his father. 

Yang Dao spotted a stain of blood at the corner of his father. He raised his eyebrow and walked over. His steady footsteps made a small sound but all the people had already perceived his presence. A few elders of his family wanted to say something but they were all given a gaze by the third ancestor of the family. 

Yue Ling wanted to say something when she heard, "Calm down, Mum." 

The lady fell quiet and by the time she gained her senses, Yang Dao stood between her and the man. She watched her child approach the man in a nascent realm calmly. Her heart was beating so fast as if it will erupt any moment. 

The boy stood a meter away from the man and asked, "Did you attack my father?" 

His calm voice surprised the people in the hall. They did not expect the boy to notice this. The man was also shocked at this, but he raised his chin and replied, "Yes, so wh.." 

He had not completed his words when he felt a suppression unlike never before. The source of this suppression was Yang Dao. He lowered his head to look at the boy in front of him gazing at him with an indifferent gaze. This moment, he could swear, that he doubted if he was even alive. 

The next moment, he sensed every suppression vanish and suddenly the world began to spin around him as he descended into darkness. The people were all shocked to the point that their eyes almost dropped to the floor. 

Yang Dao had cast a wind blade to cut off the head of the man in front of him. Then he looked at a spot in the void and said, "You should not move your pawns recklessly in my home. Do you understand that, Madam Yue?"

His words sent out another wave of a surprise to half the people in the hall. While the other half had sensed someone watching over in secret. Suddenly a peal of laughter broke in the hall, accompanied by claps and a feminine voice said, "My grandson is indeed a daring genius."
