The Urban Dao Child

Yang Dao came outside the mansion followed by the two ladies and leopards. They were heading to the gardens where the party was being held and the guests were mingling. As they entered the garden. RALF, who had been following them two steps behind, moved forward and clapped his hands.

There was one thing about the party in higher societies. They were not loud. The clapping sound attracted the attention of all the guests present and RALF said, "May I have your attention please, Ladies and gentlemen."

The people stopped what they were doing and turned to face him. The Steward AI said, "I give you the star of the night. Mister Feng Yang Dao. Please put your hand together and bless him on his birthday."

The crowd cheered. Those who were drinking raised their glasses while some clapped their hands as they all said in unison, "Happy birthday, Young Master Feng."

Yang Dao took a step forward and bowed to the people. He saw that a lot of people were holding their glasses high to show their respect to him, so he waved to a waiter. He picked up a glass of champagne and raised it to the people and said, "Thank you, everyone, for coming over to wish me."

Then he took a sip of the sparkling liquid. For the first time, he tasted the spirit however, he did not react. To keep himself from being embarrassed in front of the guests, the boy had created a layer of source energy inside his mouth and food pipe. The spirit will dissolve as soon as it enters the stomach.

The people felt honored as Yang Dao took a sip of the liquid for him. Feng Yun and Laohu Bai glanced at each other and picked up a glass as well. The two accompanied the boy in exchange for respect. Atsuji Kurogame was the elder and people were not pestering him. However, the old man took the initiative of offering spirit to the people.

Ryu Jinshi, the azure dragon, when was he ever shy of liquor. He started a competition at the side to drink out the hotshots of the party. This list included the cycling club and the young classmates. Maybe because of the powers of Ryu Jinshi, he looked very young, and these guys thought that he was their peer.

Yang Dao was surrounded by lots of girls, however, Kiya, Kylie, Mika, and Selena Costa took it upon themselves to protect their chick from the wild witches. The four women all reached an agreement that they will deal with the incoming traffic and then only will they solve the harem matters.

Yes, they agreed to have a harem around Yang Dao before he even knew about their feelings, as none of them was going to give up. What was left to do now was to decide the designation in the harem.

So tonight they were playing the role of Yang Dao's bodyguard. They even decided to distribute their tasks. Like Kiya would accompany him to dance, then followed by Kylie Dew, Selena Costa will play a music piece with him. Mika will be coming last to have some good food with him.

They met him in this order, thus they worked in this order as well. the other social butterflies had no chance to catch Yang Dao's attention. Many hearts were broken and crushed in the banquet. Feng Yun and Laohu Bai sat down with Atsuji Kurogame and Ryu Jinshi. They were observing the whole scenario with amused smiles.

Atsuji Kurogame said, "Yun, once the young master kissed that girl on impulse, you reminded him of his role as the Dao child. Today, he is maintaining a distance from them because of that day only. He is a young man and born as a mortal, he has needs and desires. Your words have sealed his desires. This suppression is not good. He has learned how to calm himself now and no one can match his temperament. You need to take out some time and talk to him about this. Understood?"

Feng Yun nodded and said, "The reason I stopped him was because of his impulse. If his desires are all in his control, then I do not mind him pursuing them. I will talk to him before he leaves for the sacred realm of Life and death."

The other two also nodded when they heard this. Laohu Bai said, "His control over the elements has advanced to a level we cannot reach until we have ascended. Why is this?"

The control she meant was how Yang Dao could manipulate different sorts of metals, minerals, and gases into the elements he has mastered. They could not understand the reason behind this achievement. As you ascend, the control of your elements will increase. They had never heard of any Dao child to be able to achieve this level when residing in the mortal realm.

Atsuji Kurogame said, "It is because he has achieved an inner equilibrium. He is different from the other Dao children in the past. He is better, but not proud. He is Dao himself. Even after an eternity of comprehending, we will never be aware of all the mysteries of Dao."

The three people nodded. Ryu Jinshi said, "It is time for them to dance. Xiao Yun, Xiao Bai. Go, have a nice time with him. He will be gone for as long as last time."

The girls smiled. They had a stronger bond with Yang Dao and thus they will miss him. The party was organized around a pavilion. Yang Dao would bask in the sun here often during the last six months. This spot was his favorite, so Feng Yun organized the party here only.

The crowd did not go inside the pavilion as they saw a music orchestra occupying half of the pavilion. The pavilion had half of itself covered with tiles while the other half had a glass ceiling. Kiya tugged the boy's sleeve and said, "Can I have this dance with you?"

Yang Dao smiled and was about to say yes, when Feng Yun came to his side and asked, "Kiya, can you do me a favor. He will go out for some stuff again and will be back after a couple of months. So can I have this first dance tonight?" her attitude was polite as one asking for the favor should have.

Kiya was a sensible girl and nodded with a smile. She took a step back, and Feng Yun took Yang Dao's hand as the two people walked to the pavilion. Feng Yun had decided to dance in the unoccupied half. The two people walked up the small steps under the gaze of the guests. Yang Dao placed his left hand on Feng Yun's waist while he supported her left palm high up with his right hand. His left elbow supported Feng Yun's elbow as her hand circled to rest on his left shoulder.

The orchestra started to play the soft music and the two people began dancing to the tune. The music was a classical piece, and they danced with ease and grace. Feng Yun spoke with a slight smile as her feet moved, "Dao, you can stop suppressing your wishes to mingle with women."

There was an incident when Yang Dao and Feng Yun kissed each other. However, that incident was buried in the heart of the two people. Yang Dao read in the chronicles in the sacred realms how the Dao child who fell in love with a familiar spirit got distracted and fell. The result almost led a world to its doom.

After the boy realized the fickleness of this issue, he stopped having any thoughts on this matter. Feng Yun speaking this made him confused. His mind was calm, and he was aware that she was not talking to him about herself. He asked, "What do mean, Sister Yun?"

Feng Yun said, "I am talking about how you can now pursue what you desire as you control your desire." her tone was calm. The two people danced and talked about it for a few minutes before the piece of music ended and the dance came to an end.

Two of them bowed to each other, then the orchestra, and then to the crowd in gratitude for the praise and support. The crowd was applauding the performance. Laohu Bai took the second dance with him, followed by Kylie Dew and Kiya. After that, Yang Dao retired from the dance floor and sat down in front of the piano used by the orchestra. Then he played a beautiful accompaniment to Selena to sing a song.

Afterward, he and Mika had a filling dinner. Turned out the athletic beauty was a fan of food as well. Yang Dao played a lot of party games with the children from the orphanage. Sister Tina prayed for his long life and prosperity before they left. Feng Yun had arranged a luxury bus for their travel. The crowd cleared and Yang Dao took off with the other four, traveling through the sky and they came to the Dao Island to see him off.

This time, Sushi was also following along as Ryu was going to visit her world.
