The Urban Dao Child

Yang Dao and the ladies stood in front of a black and golden spaceship. The ship looked like a sword piercing the void. Elder Jing Shui said, "This ship belongs to the heaviest class found in our side of the immortal plane. It is called Singularity. The attack power is so potent that it can erase an army of ascended mortals in one attack. Let's go." 

The ship was floating in the sky and they all needed to fly off in the sky to get on board. The people did not say much, after all, a moment ago they could not even see this ship. Yang Dao asked as he flew on his flying sword, "Elder, how can this ship appear in front of us, out of nowhere?" 

Yue Jing and Athena were curious as well, despite being members of the great overlord families they have never seen such a ship. Jing Shui said, "Martial Brother Sun is the master of this sword. This ship has an array, if he wishes this ship will appear in an instant. How that works, you will have to ask Elder Chime, I have no knowledge of arrays." 

Yang Dao subconsciously mumbled, "Seems like I will have to learn the dao of arrays as well." 

He did not notice the momentary gawking he received from the ladies. After a few minutes, the people all got on board the ship from the hatch door. Elder Jing invited them to take a tour of the metal giant but the boy refused and said, "I will go to cultivate, I do not want to take this ship apart just yet." 

Jing Shui nodded and showed him his room. It was an understatement to call this place a room, it was a house on the ship. However, Yang Dao did not care as he only needed the space big enough that allows him to sit down in a lotus position and cultivate. 

The floor and ceiling of the cultivation area had spirit stones placed inside slots and they were all high-grade spirit stones. Yang Dao closed his eyes and began to focus on condensing his spiritual energy. 

...

While the boy was traveling through the starry sea, a young girl was staring at the moon hanging in the sky. The girl had short white hair, crimson red eyes, and snow-white skin. Her beauty was enough to put the natural wonders to shame. Her temperament was so noble that the people around her did not dare to peek at her face. 

The scenery of beauty standing under the silent night sky was otherworldly, however, the tranquility was destroyed. 

"Yin. Why are you standing here again? Master called for you." a voice sounded from behind the girl. She blinked and turned her gaze to look at the source of disruption. 

She asked in an ethereal yet non-feeling voice, "It has nothing to do with you." 

Then she turned her head and walked away. The person who called her seemed to have not understood her coldness and rude behavior. He quickly followed and caught up with her and with a smiling face, he said, "Why are you always like this? Do you not wish to know me more?" 

Yin did not care and kept walking slowly. In her mind, she thought, 'You come and babble everything, I know what and who you are even if I do not want to.'

The boy who was talking to her was tall and he had white hair like her as well. The only difference was that the man had small horns protruding from his forehead. His eyes were the same and so was the skin. He kept on talking and talking with Yin without caring for her input. 

The two arrived in front of a building and the boy said, "Oh, we arrived at the sect so quickly? Hahaha, time with you always flies away." 

Yin thought, 'Not long enough. If not for me blocking my eardrums with spirit energy, I would have bled to death already.' 

She did not wait to greet this guy and walked inside the sect gates. The disciples who saw her arrival bowed to her slightly while Yin kept walking forward slowly. The boy kept following her like a dog walking behind its master. The people would have normally expressed contempt for such behavior but the identity of this man was very prestigious among their circle and they dared not offend this guy even in their dreams. 

The two walked through a huge area and came to a palace. The building was black and gave off an ominous aura. Yin walked in slowly and the guy followed. The two came to a room where an old man was standing outside the door. The old man said, "The master has called for you, Yin." 

Yin nodded and walked inside the room. The guy wanted to follow inside but the old man's gaze made him freeze and give a goofy smile. 

Inside the room, a middle-aged man sat in the void with his eyes closed. A ring of red marbles was moving around the man like they were attached to strings and the man was the center. Yin came in front of the man and asked, "You called for me?"

The man opened his eyes and said, "Have you been gazing at the stars again?" 

The girl nodded and the man gave her a soft smile. He said, "Time has come. You can go outside to explore the immortal plane. However, you will have to move along with demon forces." 

Yin nodded and asked, "Do I have to fight with humans always?" 

The man shook his head and said, "They only fight those who do not follow the orthodox path of demon cultivators. If you encounter an unorthodox force, do not hesitate in wiping out these scourge of the race." 

Yin nodded and the man said, "Tato will go with you. Okay?" 

The girl nodded. The man said, "If you encounter any trouble that even Tato cannot solve, use the demon decree I have given you, Okay?" 

Yin nodded. Although she did not say much her eyes were brimming with sparkles and that was enough for the man to know that this girl was happier than ever. He smile at her and said, "TATO." 

The old man guarding outside came inside and knelt on the floor, "Master." he said. 

"You will follow Yin on her travels. You must guard her with your life. Do you understand?" said the man. 

Tato bowed his head and said, "The slave understands." 

Yin took two steps forward and said, "Uncle, you take care and do not let that guy follow me. I will kill him this time." 

The man chuckled and said, "Okay, I will make it clear this time. My little princess will not be bothered by him." 

Yin revealed a smile so dazzling that the man almost melted into a puddle of blood. The old slave, Tato, was sed to it but if others were to see the supreme demon, the head of the demon race smiling like this, they would have been shocked or committed suicide thinking this was a dream and the only way to wake up was immense pain. 

Yin left the room to prepare for her journey and the man said, "Tato, do you think it is too much for me to treasure her like this?" 

The old man did not speak and his master sighed as he said, "I order you to express your true opinion." 

Tato raised his head and said, "I do not understand what reason might you have to treat a low-blood like her in such a manner. The grandiose she has is higher than even you in this place. What is going on with your head, Elmo." 

He did not even address the man as Master but directly called his name. Elmo was the head of the demon race. The realm of his cultivation was a mystery to everyone but he was a demon who did not have any enmity with the humans. Elmo heard his slave talking to him like this and said, "Old man when my sister gave birth to this girl after she had a tryst with that commoner a decade ago, I was so enraged that I wished to kill her along with her child. 

When I reached the hiding place, I found that the baby was surrounded by four dark shadows. The aura of these four shadows was so profound that even sensing them gave me a dangerous feeling. I would have died if I had taken action against them. The moment I saw that tiny girl, it was as if I attained the dao itself. 

The four shadows warned me to never harm her or they will make the whole race live in a manner worse than death. I can even swear on my dao heart that at that moment I was scared and for the first time I experienced fear from the depth of my soul. We call her Yin but her full name is Dao Yin. An incarnation of the great dao among us." 

His words shocked the old man to the core. He did not expect it to be such a thing. However, before he could say anything, Elmo said, "Keep it a secret from her and everyone."

Tato said, "Yes, Master."
