The Urban Dao Child.

After his friends left, Yang Dao was depressed. Unable to go to class affected his mood a lot. The presence of his friends Icarus and Ray in the past few days kept this heavy feeling of being left out at the bay. Tonight, however, watching them all leave the Dao Courtyard mansion. He did not want Feng Yun to be worried over him. So he made an excuse about going back to rest. 

He went inside his room and closed the door. He did not sit down on the bed, but crossed his legs and sat down on the floor. His mind was flooded with a lot of useless thoughts. Controlling his emotions and thoughts, he focused his consciousness over the reason he was denied to attend college. 

The answer came to him. Others were implicated because of him. Why were they implicated? Because he was weak and let down his guard. He let himself flow with the moment and immersed himself in the joy and spur of it. As he ponder3ed over these questions, unconsciously he entered the state of meditation. 

The solution to this problem was for him to get stronger. How to get stronger? Advance to the next level. The wind inside the room moved gently around him. Yang Dao locked his perception to the wind in his lungs. His perception magnified the wind element. Soon, he could 'see' the glowing particles of source energy. 

He did not hurry to assimilate them inside him. He concentrated on the wind outside and increased his perception. Soon, within a kilometer, all the wind followed his command. The boy increased his focus and soon the wind transformed into shiny particles. The particles all looked like glitter scattered in the air. A cerulean glint was clear in them.

The boy focused on the particles both inside and outside. The particles moved slightly, but they did not assimilate with his physique. He recalled he needed to make a vow before he could complete this step. He thought in his mind, 'I swear to never use my powers to harm the innocent, nature, and the weak.'

It may seem that the oath was going to limit him, but actually not. Yang Dao would harm no innocent and nature. As for someone weaker than taking him on. He did not need his powers, his skills were good enough. The boy interacted with the source energy particles. He had already noticed Feng Yun standing outside the door, with food. 

Yang Dao reined in his drool and desire. He focused on the source particles, the particles looked like glitter. They moved towards him with every breath he took, the glitter mixed with his blood and then flowed throughout his whole body. The blood vessels carried them to every single cell of his body, nourishing it.

...

Outside the door, Feng Yun nodded with a smile and walked away with the trolley. The process of nourishment was going to last for a long time. She did not want to disturb his concentration. Also, as the Dao Child became stronger, the familiars will regain some of their sealed powers. She quickly entered her room, after closing the door, she sat down on the ground. 

...

Yang Dao was unaware of all this. He seemed to have cut off from the entire world. The properties of wind uncovered to him as he dwelled on it more. The wind was not only sharp but also blunt. If wind can strengthen fire, then it can also extinguish it. all that matters is the flow and intensity of it. 

(Well before you all go gaga over how the wind can extinguish the fire. Ever heard of creating a vacuum by the change in pressure? The same is what I mentioned here. SMH)

Two things were happening here at one moment. One was the source of energy particles nurturing Yang Dao's body, the second was his mind comprehending the meaning of an element. To become truly stronger, one needed to comprehend the Source meaning of an element. 

The boy was unaware that an azure-colored dragon tattoo was shining between his eyes. 

...

In Crypto nation, Ryu Jinshi was surrounded by a lot of enemies, and bullets were flying around like confetti. His breathing was heavy, he mumbled while he hid behind some cover, "To think these bastards want to outsmart me? Shameful." 

Suddenly, he sensed something deep inside his soul. A grin surfaced on his face. He muttered, "Finally." The next moment he stood up and said in a low voice, "Rage Strom."

His eyes glowed for a second and the wind currently changed, out of nowhere a storm, strong enough to uproot buildings, raged. The strange thing was that this strong circled Ryu Jinshi. At first, he would have killed these people with a weapon or something, but this storm made it easier. 

The whole thing lasted for a minute and then fell silent. The people who surrounded Ryu Jinshi all fell. If someone came to investigate, they will find that the bodies were covered with slash marks all over their bodies. This was the effect of Rage Storm's move. This skill was not to be used often as it would not distinguish between friends or foe. 

Unfortunately for the people who just died, they all had Ryu Jinshi lured to an isolated area. The azure dragon was the epitome of might and raw instinct. Tonight he cleared up every assassin who took on the contract against Yang Dao. This skill helped him deal with the mess without bathing in the blood of these filthy people. 

...

The same thing happened with everyone else. They regained their sealed skills. At this moment they were cheerful. Finally, the one they serve realized his responsibilities. Yang Dao realized he was the Dao Child, and he has a lot of duties towards everyone. He did not want the surrounding people to be implicated and thus he advanced. 

It was midnight when he opened his eyes and saw test his power. He stood up from the ground and walked outside his room. Looking around, he found no one, so the boy went out into the garden. His actions were simple and swift. 

Coming to the garden, under the dim-lit surroundings. The boy practiced. His punches and kicks moved, followed by a small change in the wind flow in the garden. This was the phenomenon caused by Yang Dao becoming an Elemental Contractor. Soon the boy increased the intensity of his practice. A shiny cerulean glove appeared on his hands.

The next thing was Yang Dao vanishing from his place. His speed also became as fast as the wind. The garden echoed with popping sounds. It was the boy throwing punches in the air. His figure would vanish from his spot and then appear some place else. As time passed, his proficiency increased. 

His figure was now fast enough to cast an afterimage that would last for a millisecond. His punches were also sharper and stronger. Suddenly he stopped in his place. In front of him, Feng Yun appeared. He smiled and asked, "Sister Yun, did you see that?"

The girl nodded with a smile and said, "Dao, how about we fight?"

She did not wait for him to reply and attacked with her strength higher than Yang Dao. The boy was surprised, but not unguarded. During his contemplation earlier, he decided to never let down his guard. He dodged the attack at the last moment. Feng Yun kept attacking and Yang Dao kept dodging. He would only attack when he found a suitable opportunity. 

Atsuji Kurogane's source essence blessed him with a better intellect plus his already strong IQ, Feng Yun could not bait him with the openings she revealed. The two people were so immersed in their practice that they even forgot the flow of time. Feng Yun also did not hold back. She would use many attacks, like grappling or clawing at Yang Dao. 

The boy was even more unbridled when he was almost caught by Feng Yun. he bit her thrice, leaving deep impressions on her jade skin. he exploited all the things he could, such as pulling on her hair, biting her. The only thing was that he did not attack her womanly parts. Things would have been awkward. (For them. I would have enjoyed it TBH)

Finally, they stopped when the sun lit up the dark horizon with a shade of ember. Looking at each other, the two started laughing loudly. They were looking like two children who just stopped brawling. Messy hair, dirty clothes, let alone them even the garden was a mess. The grass was missing some patches. 

Feng Yun suddenly said, "Dao, you can go to college starting today. I will talk to your principal. Also, you still might have to go through the detention she mentioned." the boy was stunned but after a second he hugged Feng Yun tightly and in his excitement, he kissed her cheek hard. 

He said, "Sister Yun, you are the best." with that said, he rushed back inside the house to get ready and leave for the college. He did not notice that Feng Yun was blushing as she gazed ahead blankly. 

She mumbled, "He kissed my cheeks..." Well, she has been pretending to be cold and cruel for her entire life. This first kiss on the cheek came too suddenly and it surprised her to the core of her being.
