The Urban Dao Child

Yang Dao heard the roaring engine sounds coming from the runway. He parked his bike in a derelict corner. He took off his helmet and walked toward the entrance under the shadows. Suddenly, he stopped and smiled. He thought to himself, "Forgot that I can fly."

With that thought, he jumped up and levitated inside the boundaries of the airport. This place was a simple airstrip with a hut serving the purpose of air traffic control. A small plane had the engine running at the end of the airstrip. Yang Dao moved his wind sense and found three hyper humans inside the plane. At first, he planned to confront them but now he had to deal with the guy, who raided his home.

He watched quietly from the shadow as the plane took off from the runaway after reaching the terminal velocity. He took the bow off from his shoulder and knocked an azure arrow on it. Suddenly a thought emerged in his mind.

He thought about how he was so merciless toward these people from the New Dawn. He had no answer in his mind but then his eyes changed into Dao eyes. The pupil started to rotate slowly as his gaze was fixed on the plane getting further in the sky. The plane was made up of lines of light and dark intersecting each other but the people inside had a gray murky shadow. It was as if a blob of smoke.

He finally got the answer to why he was so unbothered with it. These people were not governed by the heavens. Yang Dao had some knowledge about how his judgment worked regarding these things. As the emissary of heavens, the designation he learned about in the sacred realm, he had an affinity toward everything that follows the way of heaven.

He was tolerant enough to see how some people would rely on their talents and breakthrough their limits. However, despite breaking past the limits one did stay under the governance of the heavens. This was the truth that none of the people could defy. If someone becomes so strong that they were not affected by anything under the heavens, the people may get the illusion that the heavens are below them.

What they fail to understand is that heavens were just accommodating them, they reaped the rewards of the trials and tests they prevailed through. Yet once they started to think of themselves like they own the universe and all the beings inside, someone comes and dethrone them.

Putting away these thoughts Yang Dao knocked the arrow on his bow and pulled the string back into a full moon. The next moment a ray of azure flashed through the void. The plane flew like nothing happened until it exploded all of a sudden. The people on the ground heard the loud explosion sound and when they raised their heads to the sky they were shocked.

The hyper-humans were not so easy to kill, they all jumped off the plane without parachutes. Hyper-humans, just as the name suggested, they were far better than normal humans, even a few bits more than the so-called superhumans. These people can land on the ground from a height of three hundred feet unscathed.

Yang Dao did not let them go so easily. He knocked the bow and the arrow condensed.

Zeng...Zeng...Zeng...

Three arrows shot through the void quickly. Nobody, other than elementalists can see the manifestation of the source of energy. All they saw were three people falling from the sky suddenly turned into a blood mist. Some pieces of flesh dropped on the ground as it was too rigid for the wind to evaporate it. These pieces were all augmented with carbonium webbing.

Yang Dao blinked his eyes, returning them to the normal eyes, and put his bow back on his shoulder, and flew out of the airstrip. He got on his bike and asked, "RALF, where is the intruder?"

"Administrator, that person tried to check the house but after he found nothing he left. At this moment that person is heading to the Dao Technologies office. Given how the administrator had Ms. Lisa and Dr. Frieda move to the mansion. I have asked, Miss Yurika and Miss Mary to give the staff an early off for the day. Also, I deduct that, this intruder might be heading to the lab. His purpose might be Neo." said the mechanical voice in his ear.

Yang Dao smiled to see how the program he developed was growing. He asked, "The reasons behind your deductions?"

RALF replied, "The intruder used the computer to search for a few keywords, related to robots, Dao technologies, Neo. Thus, stating his intentions."

"Good work, RALF." said Yang Dao with a smile.

"Much obliged, sir." replied RALF.

Yang Dao called Atsuji Kurogame and said after the call connected, "The three runaways are down. The last guy is heading to the Dao technologies. I am going over to the spot."

Atsuji Kurogame said, "Young Master, I understand why you are in a hurry but the people of the office have gone home already. You do not need to worry." to him the reason Yang Dao was moving so fast was that he was afraid for his employees.

Yang Dao replied calmly, "The reason I am rushing over is to safeguard the work that my employees have done with their hard work. It will take Laohu Bai or any other general level person around fifteen more minutes to get there. The hyper-human will take eight minutes while I will reach there in nine minutes. I will talk to you later."

He disconnected the phone without listening to the other side's opinion. Atsuji Kurogame also sighed and with a wry smile said, "You are forgetting that Feng Yun is right next to your office, Young Master."

Yang Dao was shuttling his motorbike through the traffic at high speeds. At this moment, the hyper-human had already reached the lab space of Dao Technologies. Just as this man wanted to unlock the door, a hand was pressed on his shoulder.

It was as if he was touched by a feather. It would have been nice, but the feather was hot. The hyper-human did not even have the time to react when he sensed his skin evaporate followed by the bones and viscera(organs).

Feng Yun smiled and said, "Such trash is meant to be incinerated."
