Chapter 363 - Deterrence.
Yang Dao stated that the old man does not know what true strength is. He waved his hand and the top of the pavilion became dust and fell upon them. Abraham sat in his chair like a mannequin, shocked and scared when he saw this.
The boy turned the whole ceiling into dust with a wave of his hand. What sort of magic was this. He had never seen any elemental pulling this off. Yang Dao evoked the azure feather wings on his back. He was not showing off his strength and thus he needed to do it properly. Casting an image in the premier’s mind. An image so deep and vivid that if the old man even has thought of slacking off or not being just in his dreams, he will never sleep again.
The wings fluttered making his body float in the void. Yang Dao crossed his hands in front of his chest and looked down on the old man. He asked, “You may have seen a lot of level four elementals among the old generation nowadays. However, I stand at the level they can never even dream of.
You might be thinking that I am bluffing but look carefully. As soon as he said this. Three halos entwined with each other appeared over his head. Abraham had the urge to kneel and worship this guy right now. He could sense that the halos were condensed of the source energy and the attributes of the elements as well.
Yang Dao said, “You shall always know that the chair you sit on is not a throne placed in a royal court, but an ordinary seat in an examination hall. You are being tested constantly, only with results can you stay on the chair. Otherwise, you will be replaced by someone new and better. This change will come once you are too old and unable to evolve when you are too tired and need rest.
So why do you cling to this chair so much? I told you that you have the earth element. Despite flying high in the sky a bird will always land on the branches of a tree that is connected to the earth. You came this far with your effort, from nothing to the premier of the country, and one day you will return to that nothing be it after your death or your retirement.
So why do you try to stay? better go out on your own so that you have a chance to enjoy the hard-earned peace. I thought you were a wise man, Premiere Abraham.”
That said, he landed back on earth, and with a wave of his hand, the ceiling was restored. During this whole scene, the cameras were hacked by RALF and provided a false feed. The area was covered by a barrier so that the guards in the surrounding will only think that the scene was serene and calm like usual.
Abraham had his forehead covered in a cold sweat and the same was true for his back as well. He was soaked. Never before has he ever sensed such oppression in his heart and thoughts. The shock in his heart was so big that he did not even have the guts to stand up. He could sense the blood gushing in all of his body.
Yang Dao noticed this and decided to stop before the old man dies of a cardiac arrest. He did not want to be titled as the murderer. On the way here, Amber had told him that he can communicate with her using his thoughts. He did not think that it will come in handy so soon. He thought, ‘Amber, can you use the spirit energy to calm him down?’ ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
Amber replied, “Yes, Lord. But can you get me in direct contact with him?”
Yang Dao walked over and placed his right hand over the old premiere. He said while gazing in the eyes of the latter, “Do your job well, and you may get to stay on the chair for longer.”
This one moment was enough for Amber to pass on a wisp of spirit energy and make the old man calm down. After this was done, Yang Dao retracted his hand and sat down on the chair opposite Abraham.
After a few minutes of silence, the premiere said, “I had lost my sight after I saw how the country has begun to develop and I wanted to enjoy this feeling of progress. Thank you, sir, for correcting my path.”
Yang Dao nodded and said, “Since, the purpose here has been achieved. I will now take my leave. The rest of the world does not need to know what happened here. I hope you understand. Also, do not worry about the cameras, they will never find anything there.”
Abraham had seen his prowess and nodded. After the spirit energy took effect the guy stood up and bowed to Yang Dao, who had already left after finishing his words.
Yang Doa deterred the government from meddling with him. The boy came out of the building with a calm pace and met a few ministers on the way. However, he did not greet them with a smile and even ignored some. The ministers sneered while some were surprised. They rushed back to find Abraham and know what has happened in the meeting.
Yang Dao got into his car and leaned back in the seat as he switched on the auto-pilot mode. The car moved out slowly driving through the city. The boy was not physically tired but mentally exhausted. He did not remember when was the last time he had relaxed.
He had been calm but not relaxed or carefree. He sighed and mumbled, “I miss my days at the orphanage.”
With that he closed his eyes, the car system was so advanced that the seat reclined and an automatic massager was initiated to enhance the comfort of the passenger.. Slowly, Yang Dao drifted off to slumber land while the car made its way to the Dao Courtyard Mansion.
