The Urban Dao Child.

The multiple howls came from a different direction and Thale said, "Why is the prey out in noon? Is it not a strict nocturnal beast?"

Jake said, "Catch up first and then talk. If some other group took out the beast before us, it will make things harder for us." as he rushed forward. 

Thale said, "Senior brother Dwaj, I will catch up later." he also rushed ahead.

Diana and Kai did not know these people so they did not waste time and rushed. Yang Dao was about to move when Dwaj said, "Oye, kid, why are you out here?" 

His tone was condescending. Yang Dao stopped and sensed a vague hostility radiating from the eyes of Dwaj. The boy was about to answer when Alisha said, "He is the prime disciple of the sect master, mind yourself. Do not overstep your limits." 

Her tone was apathetic. Dwaj was surprised and said, "Big Sis, I was away from the sect for too long and did not know about his identity. Can you not be so upset?" 

Alisha did not care for his mellow tone and said, "I am no sister of yours. Also, I am not upset, I do not have emotions for things and people I am not close to. You can scram back to wherever you came from. Young Master, let us go, the team is already quite ahead." 

Yang Dao did not ask anything, he could tell that this was their matter, and quickly he moved his lightweight skills and moved. The speed was not slow and he kept up with Alisha who was unknowingly moving faster than her. 

He did not feel tired but watched Alisha so restless he could not help but say, "Calm down, did you not just say that you do not feel any emotions for him? Why is your spirit flowing so agitated? Do you want your spiritual energy to deviate and cripple yourself?" 

His words immediately woke up Alisha and her mood calmed down. She said, "Young Master, thank you. About this matter..."

The boy nodded and said, "I did not hear anything, and I trust you will tell me when you want to tell me. Just keep that guy away from me, if he annoyed me, I will beat him." 

Dwaj and his group were following him and when they heard these words, they immediately wanted to retort him, however, Alisha turned her head back to look at him with a cold gaze that extinguished the fire of youth raging inside his heart.  They all followed in silence with unwillingness in their hearts.

They quickly caught up with Thale and the rest and found them standing hidden away in the treeline and gazing at the scene in front of them. Yang Dao asked, "Senior brother Thale, what is happening?" 

The others understood that the boy was hinting at the pair of three-headed wolves lying with each other coyly. The appearances of the two wolves were very different. A big dominating black wolf, while beside this wolf lay a white wolf, even though they had three heads, the white wolf looked very pretty. 

Thale said, "They were copulating earlier. Now they seemed to have been refreshed, if we attacked one now, the other one will not sit by. We have to find another three-headed wolf." 

The boy asked, "Why are you looking for this wolf in the first place?" 

Jake said, "The meat of this wolf is particularly liked by the guardian beast of firefly rose. We planned to use this as bait to attract the beast away and take the flower away. It is a grade five herb" 

Yang Dao nodded and asked tentatively, "Can we use the fur of this wolf as well? Like, burn it with some other meat, and attract the snake away?" 

Jake said, "It might be possible, but how can we get the fur? We can use the essence weakening grass but the pressure will still be high. That white wolf is extremely sensitive to smell and they will elope as soon as we light up the grass." 

The boy nodded and they all began to think of a way to deal with the situation. They did not ask Alisha or Dwaj for help. This was their task after all. Suddenly a girl from Dwaj's group said, "Senior Sister Alisha, that kid walked out to the wolves." 

Her voice was low and trembling with shock. She did not expect this kid to be so foolish. They could sense that the boy was in the spirit formation realm, but the beast in front was a golden core realm and two of them. Was this not attracting death? 

Alisha had always been paying attention to Yang Dao and she was aware of his movements, she did not have any intention of interfering as long as the boy was not in grave danger. Thale panicked and said, "Let us go, we need to save him." 

Daina said, "What are you all panicking for? Do you know his skills? He will get the fur of those wolves. You just watch. I do not know how you grew up to be so big. Fluttering like dry leaves under strong winds. I say, Thale, do not lose this lady's face, okay?" 

Expect for Alisha, everyone else was surprised at her haughty speech. Kai said, "Do not joke."

Daina said, "You will see if I am joking or you all are. Watch carefully." 

...

Yang Dao walking out of the treeline had not attracted the attention of the two wolves, so he deliberately stepped on the twigs and dry leaves on the ground making the two of them look at him. 

The couple Spirit Beasts growled and bared their fangs at the boy. Yang Dao smiled and raised his hands slowly. He said, "Hello, Big brother, big sister. Can I ask you something?" as he stopped moving forward. 

The wolves growled as the male stood up looking around at the treeline. They were sitting on a boulder enjoying their quality time and this two-legged beast came barging. He hated the two-legged beasts the most, they would kill beasts and then take away the corpses. They all attacked in groups. Sometimes he even thought if he was a wolf or these two-legged beasts were the wolves. 

Yang Dao understood something and said, "Big brother, my teammates are there." as he pointed in the direction of the group hiding inside the treeline. Thale and everyone placed a hand over their faces in exasperation. Who knew, when the wolf will eat up the kid and charge at them? 

The wolf let out a muffled roar. Yang Dao suddenly said, "Big sister, can you say something to him. We are not malicious, you know. I just came over, because I saw how beautiful you looked. Big brother is also, mighty. I wanted to ask if I can paint you?" 

The boy did not take his usual approach as he was aware that the male wolf was wary of humans. He decided to please the female. Females were fascinating creatures. Regardless of the species, they all loved compliments and praises. They might be awkward to handle them, but they all loved to be praised sincerely. 

The female wolf tilted all three of her heads and let out a purr, making the male wolf look at her in surprise. He did not expect his mate to ask him to stand down. Yang Dao smiled and said, "I will come closer and then sketch you." 

He moved closer slowly and then took out a stool and a canvas from his space ring. He hummed a little tune and began to sketch, his actions not only surprised the wolves but also his group. Daina said, "What are you all gawking at? He can communicate and appease beasts. Humph, bumpkins." 

Daina was young and she did not know that Yang Dao was the abnormal one, the rest were different. They gawked at the scene in front of them in surprise. Dwaj was not different. Alisha was smiling faintly at this scene. 

...

After ten minutes, Yang Dao had painted a scene, where a three-headed black wolf stood watching over the surrounding, with a mighty aura radiating from his eyes, as a white wolf sat beside him, looking gentle and elegant. The two beasts formed complete and beautiful contrast between them. 

The boy did not hurry up to leave and said loudly, "Senior brother Thale, what is the name of that snake guarding that herb?" 

Thale subconsciously replied, "Five colored Boa." 

Yang Dao nodded and said to the wolves, "Big sister, that five-colored Boa seems to have great enmity towards your kin? Is it true?" 

During the past ten minutes, Yang Dao had been humming in front of them and painting calmly, the dao resonance from his body had already increased the degree of familiarity with them. The white wolf nodded and hatred appeared in her eyes. 

Yang Dao said, "Big sister, do you want to kill that beast?" in a surprised tone. 

The white wolf stood up and howled loudly as if showing approval to the boy. Yang Dao said, "How about we team up? I guarantee you will have your vengeance." 

The two wolves glanced at each other. Yang Dao said, "I can swear on my dao heart. If you want me to." 

...

Ten minutes later, Yang Dao walked between a pair of wolves while the rest followed.
