Chapter 360 - Development.
Feng Yun glanced at the golden crow bowing in front of her. She was surprised when she saw this creature. She nodded and turned her focus at Yang Dao. She bowed and said, “Welcome back, Master.”
Yang Dao smiled and said, “Why are you acting so formal with me, Sister Yun?”
He stepped forward and hugged Feng Yun. He asked, “The others, are they behaving?”
The lady was wearing a red jumpsuit and stilettos, looking beautiful. Ever since the day Yang Dao had put eye shadow makeup on her, she had been using it the same way. She felt warm when the boy hugged her, and after hearing her question she said, “Yes, they are repenting sincerely. Xiao Bai does not leave them any other options. In the past few days, she had not had to school them. Otherwise, I would have heard that Ryu broke a few bones because of his mistake.”
Yang Dao imagined the miserable two but he had no emotion on his face. They were being punished, this was natural. He nodded and said as he broke the hug, “This is Amirah. Screen her thoroughly and appoint her the task to infiltrate the crypto nation army to monitor the New Dawn movements.”
Feng Yun nodded and said, “Yes, I will get it done.” as she cast a gaze at Amirah.
The girl shivered at the indifferent gaze and thought, ‘I felt as if I am naked in front of her gaze. Who are these people, and why are they so chill about this grumpy bird?’
Feng Yun said, “Shadow.”
Following her words a person walked out of the terrace gates, dressed in tight-fitting black clothes and a mask. The person was a male or a female, it was difficult to make out. Shadow knelt in font of Feng Yun on one knee and asked, “Lord.”
Feng Yun said, “Take her away, give her rest, food, clothes, training, and conduct a thorough search on her. Then sneak her into the Crypto Army. Understood?”
Shadow nodded and then Feng Yun said, “You can follow her, do not worry, they will not harm you.” she explained to Amirah.
Amirah bowed to her and Yang Dao and then followed Shadow. This shadow guy was not a name, but it was a designation for all the shadow guards around her. After the people left, Feng Yun asked, “Dao, would you like to take some rest?”
The boy nodded and said, “I will go to take a nap now. You would be wanting to talk to Amber, right? Bye.” and then he also went downstairs. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
Feng Yun smiled at his back and then cast a gaze on the golden crow. She asked, “Why is a golden crow here?”
The crow replied, “Umm, I was bored back at home so come out to fly, then that weird rock caught my sight and I got into trouble. Thankfully, his excellency saved me.”
“How did you know that he is the dao child?” asked the phoenix.
The golden crow replied, “I have once seen the previous Dao child of heavens and he had the same aura about himself. Well, his excellency had a much purer aura than the one I saw in the past.”
Feng Yun nodded and said, “What do you plan to do from now on?”
Amber replied, “Can I stay beside his excellency? I will be useful in protecting him and also, be mount for him. I have been in this world for quite a long time and my energy is not too strong now, so I can follow him easily. I can be of aid, Your highness. I can guide him to natural treasure herbs.”
Watching the golden crow trying to convince her, Feng Yun almost laughed out loud. However, she was the flame queen and her expressions were only to be seen by her master. She said, “Good, then you can stay. Do you know how to transform into a piece of jewelry?”
The crow nodded heavily and with a flutter of her wings, she turned into a golden ring with a red ruby-like gem embedded in it. Feng Yun took the ring in her hands and she said, “You are not to make trouble in his personal life or appear in front of him without his command. Also, he does not like such shiny jewelry.”
Amber replied, “As you command, your highness.” and then the ring turned black, but the small ruby-like gem still stayed there.
Feng Yun nodded and walked back to her cabin. Yang Dao was already sitting on the chair and was reading files on a holo-tab. A product developed by Dao Technologies in his absence, this product was based on holographic technology and was a huge hit.
The boy was checking all the progress reports he had missed. He did not even change his clothes and sat on the chair. Feng Yun saw him working right off the bat and shook her head with a wry smile. She said, “Dao, you need to rest a bit.”
The boy did not raise his head and said, “The trip was not very tiring so I am fine, plus, Amber had cast multiple world patterns in there so it was not tiring.”
Feng Yun was shocked at this and cast a glance at the ring in her hands. Then she smiled and said, “You have picked up a treasure this time. Not everyone can see the world patterns, even we the heavenly spirit beasts cannot see them. The Dao Child can but only when he ascends to the throne of the Dao Palace.”
Yang Dao had expected such a thing and asked, “Why do I see, so many reports of infiltration around the reactor site? Is the military so useless after becoming elementals? Or has New Dawn found a way to mass-produce superhumans?”
Feng Yun sighed and said, “The Shadow Guard and special forces have made new discoveries regarding this matter. I hope you change into something better and visit the Crown.”
Yang Dao raised his head with a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
