Chapter 451: Hit.
Xia Jian opened his eyes wide as he heard a familiarly strange voice, his lips quivered uncontrollably as he looked at the man gazing at him with a shocked gaze. The two people were shocked to the core of their hearts. Xia Kun had been struggling within himself, he did not know what it was but the words of the ten-year-old, made his lifelong attitude shaky.
He has been pretending to be malicious for such a long time now that it has become second nature to him. Sometimes in the fit of rage or while going through a strong negative emotion, he committed deeds that he regretted deeply. One of these deeds were cutting of the tongue of his son, Xia Jian.
Xia Jian was six years old when his father, Xia Kun started to train him. One year passed and the boy’s growth did not meet his expectations, so what he did was to put him through an even tougher regime. Xia Jian was after all a child. He complained and threw a tantrum over the harsh treatment.
His question was, “Why can you be not like other parents? Why do you treat me as such? What wrong have I committed?”
Xia Kun did not expect his son to use this tone with him and this flared up his temper, resulting in him using his bare hands to harm the boy. The moment he was finished, he realized what he has done, despite his emotional imbalance, the child in his hands was his own blood and flesh. He recalled how he liked to play with his son, but gradually he lost his sanity, forgetting the emotions inside his heart.
Xia Jain’s voice took down the last shred of doubts and hesitation in his mind. The man did not say anything to his son but rushed in front of Yang Dao. Yue Ling and the rest thought that he was about to attack, but the man did something that surprised them even more than him attacking or Yang Dao’s actions they witnessed today.
Xia Kun, the notorious, fell to his knees and banged his head nine times in front of Yang Dao as he said, “Thank you, Young Master Yang. Thank you for waking me up. All this life, I have always wanted the people to look at me and that desire made me lose it all. today your words have woken me up. I do not know what transpired when I was in doubt but I can tell that only you are capable of doing this miracle.
Lady Yue, I apologize for my actions in the past. Please forgive me. I am ashamed of my deeds. I apologize to each and everyone person present here. Forgive me.”
As he spoke he started to cry. This was shockening. Yang Dao shook his head and said, “Raise your head, Sir Xia. Do not beg for anything, earn it. Earn the forgiveness you seek by your actions. Your talks have always been there and you should know what that did.”
Xia Kun raised his head covered in dirt and said, “You are correct, Young Master Yang. I shall earn it all back. Thank you for your guidance. Thank you.”
He finished speaking and took out a key from his space ring. He snapped the key from the middle and the people heard a loud click. They located the source and found that the collar on the big birds neck broke open. Xia Kun fulfilled his both conditions. He gazed at Yang Dao with some expectation. He wanted to ask for the permission to leave, but the boy was smiling at the big bird.
Yue Yun said, “Leave now.” in her cold voice.
She did not want to give this guy an easy pardon. She could not forgive him at all. Xia Kun was aware that the grievance between the two was not so easy to be dissolved. He nodded and walked back to his son. He did not approach Xia Jian with his hands and said, “In future, get stronger, be a friend that he can look at in times of need. That is how you will be able to pay back the debt of today.”
Xia Jian woke up from these words and nodded. Xia Kun took out a talisman paper from his space ring and used it. The next moment the two people vanished from the place. The Wang family people decided to rush up to Yue Ling and get even more familiar with him. The rest of the people also did the same.
Yang Dao did not pay attention to them and he came to the side of the big bird. A few elders of the family watched his movements. The bird gave him a wary gaze and let out a loud tweet to scare him off.
However, the dao child only smiled and said, “You are hurt, are you not? Here eat this and recover well. This place belongs to my mother, I will tell her to let the people leave you in peace and give you food on time. You can leave when you are fine.”
With that said he took out a spirit fruit and placed it on the ground. The people were shocked. The mistress of the Wang family said, “Ling, your son surely is a spend thrift.”
Yue Ling shook her head and said, “You judged wrong Madam. He is a money grubber, only takes out his treasures to help those in need.”
Mistress Wang was surprised and said, “Ling, what do you think, if we put my grand daughter with your son?”
Yue Ling was surprised about this all of a sudden proposal. She replied, “Madam, Wang Meilin is a good girl and will grow into a talented and big beauty. However, my mother-in-law had put down the word when Dao was born. He will be allowed to choose whom he would want to marry. We cannot decide this for him.”
Madam Wang smiled and said, “Well, Mulan did the same when Shan was born. He did find himself a gem later. So, she is correct. Well, let the time take it’s course.”
Yue Ling nodded and then she entertained a few people in the garden. They all wanted to talk to her about Yang Dao. The boy did shock them with his performance. As a mother, Yue Ling was brimming with pride as the people complimented her son. She was more than happy to talk to these people. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
Yue Yun on theother hand just shook her head and sighed at the scene. The young lady of her household was really gullible when it came to her son and family. She looked at the reason behind this facade and found him to be talking to the big bird.
A few children were trying to approach Yang Dao but they were scared by the big beast. The scene of a four feet high boy talking to a big ten feet bird with tweeting sounds. Yang Dao suddenly heard the footsteps behind him and saw a girl wearing emerald green hanfu. He smiled and said, “Hello.”
The girl had doe eyes and her hair were tied to a similar style like him. She replied with her small mouth, “Hello.”
Her voice was really soft. Yang Dao turned his head back to the bird and made a few more tweeting sounds. The girl asked, “What is your name?”
Yang Dao replied, “Oh forgive my manners, I am Yang Dao. What about you?”
The girl smiled and replied, “Lin Xue.”
Yang Dao nodded and said, “Nice to meet you.”
Lin Xue nodded and said, “What will you do with this bird? Take it back home?”
Yang Dao shook his head, “No, no, it is hurt, that slave collar harms the creatures in a long run. So I had her freed, she will recover here and then fly off in the big sky.”
Lin Xue asked, “How do you know it is a she?” she was curious and surprised.
They were ten year old but their brains were noursihed with spirit energy, making them all smart and intelligent.
Yang Dao replied, “She told me.”
Lin Xue wanted to ask him a lot more but Yue Yun appeared, “Dao, time to go home.”
Yang Dao waved his hand the children and then said something to the bird in a tweeting sound. He said, “Granny Yun, can we make it so the Jing (the bird) can be taken care of here?”
Yue Yun nodded with a smile on her face. Then Yang Dao nodded back to the bird and walked off with Yue Yun. Lin Xue suddenly caught up to him and asked, “Young Master Dao, can we meet in future?”
Yang Dao replied with a smile, “Yes, why not. You all can come to visit me at my domain. Also, call me Dao. We are the same age.”
Yue Yun was a smart lady and she understood that her young master wanted to make friends with all these people so she gave them a token that will allow them to visit the Yang family home planet. This was a standard mode of transportation in this world filled with cultivators.
Lin Xue smiled as she gazed at the token and said, “You can call me, Xue. We are the same age.”
Yang Dao smiled and nodded. Then he rushed to his mother side who was smiling widely at him. He said, “We race to the sky gazing tower.”
He took out his spirit sword and while saying good bye to everyone, he jumped over and flew off. Yue Ling said, “That is not fair.”
Only to hear an Uuuu
