The Urban Dao Child.

The hand on his shoulder belonged to Feng Yun. She said, "It is okay now Young Master." in a soft voice. 

Yang Dao stopped and opened his eye. The scene turned back to the garden, Laohu Bai and Feng Yun stood behind him while Ryu Jinshi stood in the front. He said, "You did well."

Yang Dao replied in an indifferent voice, "I do not need your approval on anything." he turned to Feng Yun and spoke with a smile, "Can we eat I am hungry."

Feng Yun smiled at him and replied, "Yes, I am hungry as well."

She took his hand and walked inside the house. Laohu Bai said as she watched the two people going inside, "Second, your pride of a dragon is not worthy in front of the Dao Child. You tried to suppress him twice. Let him learn how to harvest source energy and he will break your teeth in all entirety." with that said she also walked inside the house.

Ryu Jishi stood at his place like a statue, but a slight frown on his face was detectable. He was the strongest mercenary in Jewel Nation, to the public. His real identity was soldier king of the nation. A one-man army capable of taking down cities on his own. At this moment, he was looked down on by a kid.

He wanted to go on and fight but he could not. If he even had a blemish big intent of being his usual self it the two ladies will kill him regardless of anything. Just when he was in a dilemma an old voice sounded behind him. 

"Breathe in and Breath out, Ryu. The young master was not wrong. He who represents the Dao does not need anyone's approval. Also, I can sense that the girls are particularly despising you today." this voice belonged to an old man. 

Ryu Jinshi spoke, "When did you come here eldest?"

The elder chuckled and said, "Just when Xiao Bai warned you."

Ryu Jinshi smiled bitterly, "Do not make fun of me eldest. Without facing the fear or the pressure the Young Master needed a push. Now, these guys look at me like that. What do I do?"

The old man said, "What else? Lower down your chin. I have heard from Yun. Young Master is not arrogant when the other people are humble. But if you think you can point at him. That is wrong. Also, with my understanding of your heart. You tried to suppress or shock him did you not?"

Without waiting for the reply, he walked up holding a cane in his arm and said, "Come, the dinner is served, and I smell fried rice and eggs." 

Ryu could not do anything more but follow him inside the house as he thought about some matters. Mainly about how to make the Young Master accept him. 

...

Inside the kitchen, the cooks appointed by Feng Yun watched Yang Dao cook with horrifying expressions. They did not expect the young master to be so efficient in cooking. His speed and action were smooth, all were connected. Soon he was done with fried rice and sauteed boiled eggs. The aroma of the two ordinary dishes was very strong and provoking. 

Yang Dao served five bowls and said to a chef, "Sir can you deliver the two bowls later?"

The chef nodded and the boy smiled at him. Then he placed the bowls in a trolley and pushed them out to the dining area. When he came he saw Feng Yun and Laohu Bai setting up the table with two other men. 

One was the young and tall, Ryu Jinshi. The other one was someone he vaguely remembered. He walked forward while trying to recall how this person was when suddenly the person smiled at him. Yang Dao recalled who he was. He said in surprise, "You are the strategist. Mr. Atsuji Kurogame. The chief officer responsible for the war tactics of the nation and also you are the intelligence and defense minister of the country. I know you."

The old man stood up with his back arched slightly and said, "It is my pleasure to be known by the Young Master."

Yang Dao nodded, He read about this man in the new papers, or seen him on the news channels. He asked with an exclamation, "Wait Kurogame, that means you are the black turtle."

The old man nodded, he said, "Young Master, I apologize to you on the behalf of Ryu just now."

Yang Dao said, "You are an elder to me, you all are but that does not mean, you cannot be wrong. It is good to have pride, otherwise, you will be stepped on. But too much pride and arrogance make you fragile. Your achievements have nothing to do with someone you just met. Neither do you have the right to act like a superior to someone who corrected his error by himself."

He paused and put the three bowls of Fried rice on the table and continued, "The reason I left the room was to think about solving the problem, you helped me. I am grateful for that but did I ask you to help me? Did I cry in front of you? Who made you think that you can look down on me, for something that can happen to anyone? Do you think that just because I am the Dao Child I am impeccable? You are foolish if you think so."

He raised the coldness in his voice at the last sentence. He continued, "The world is Dao, and Dao is the world. Constant change that makes life move forward is prone to flaws and so is Dao. If it were invincible then there would not exist a need for people who fight against the bad or the good. I made a fault I took the pain and humiliation. You made a mistake by looking down on me for something that was out of my control. You three, amongst you, sister Feng Yun is the only one with who I actually feel happy. Sister Bai took a cheap shot at me during a spar. Mr. Jinshi, acted as if I am his slave of sorts. While you Mr. Kurogame, meddled in an issue you did not take part in. Get a life, if you are so lonesome that you need to step in for others."

The boy panted hard as he finished speaking. Feng Yun poured him a glass of water. The other three people looked at each other and sighed. Laohu Bai was about to stand up and say something when Yang Dao put down his glass and said, "Baibai, you did something wrong, you apologized sincerely. That thing finished there. I apologize to have gotten angry and speak too brashly."

Laohu Bai shook her head rapidly and sat on her chair with a relieved expression. Ryu stood up and bowed as he said, "I apologize to you for my rudeness, Young Master. "

Then he kneeled on one knee and said, "Young Master, please forgive me. I am the azure dragon spirit, Ryu Jinshi. I let my arrogance and pride overwhelm me too much. I seek your forgiveness."

Yang Dao sighed, he could sense the sincerity in his voice and said, "Stand up, I forgive you. Also, can you two complete the ceremony?"

Ryu stepped near him and said, "Yes."

Yang Dao stood up from his chair and said, "I accept you..."

The same thing happened with the Old man as well, but Yang dao did not let him get down on his knee. He just forgave him and even apologized for being rude and calling him lonesome. 

Yang Dao was blessed by the source of Azure dragon which made his body gain muscles in an instant and the black turtle source made his mind become sharper. The cooks delivered the two more bowls of fried rice and eggs. After eating everyone wanted to sit together and talk, but they were rattled by Yang Dao's shiny eyes.

He held Feng Yun's hand and said, "Can I get roulette's key? You said I can drive it when all four are together. Please. You cannot say no, sister Yun."

Feng Yun held her forehead in a palm and said, "Young Master, it is late already. You can get it tomorrow."

Yang Dao immediately slumped his shoulders and said in an aggrieved tone, "I knew you would say this. To think my love for you would be wasted like this."

Then he shook his head and walked to his room. Feng Yun was happy when he said, he loved her in a way and also when he scolded the rest but not her. Watching him go back to his room like this made her sad. She said, "Okay, Young master, wait. I will get you the keys but you have to promise not to play too much okay? Be careful while riding."

Yang Dao's eyes shined and he nodded like a chick pecking grain.
