The Urban Dao Child

Yang Dao was guided by the old king to the study room inside the palace. He said, "Lord, this place is isolated from the whole world completely."

The Dao child could sense a slight barrier around the place isolating them from every human interference. Yang Dao asked, "I do not know how to beat around the bush. So, let me be blunt. The current thinking process of this world is flawed to the point where it can trigger self-destruction. I do not know about the mindset people have in the other regions but your fire region can vanish overnight."

The old king was shocked when he heard these words, he asked, "Lord, what do you mean? I do not understand."

Yang Dao sighed and walked to stand in front of a big window in the study room. He gazed at the world outside and said, "You people in the fire region think that you stood tall in the great war that occurred in this world, so you can be arrogant. I want to ask you, would a sane person go out and tell everyone that he is strong because his distant cousin is strong?"

The old king shook his head. Yang Dao said, "Old King..."

He could not complete his words when he was interrupted by the old king, who said, "Lord, my name is Jwal. You do not need to call me the old king."

Yang Dao nodded and said, "Sir Jual, you must be well aware that the people in this region are far from the sanity they need to sustain their lives. They are all arrogant because the fire region stood tall in the war. Let alone the talented people, even the servants in the palace have their eyes on the sky. Do you think given my strength, I could have wiped all of your staff and people? Do you think it is possible?"

Jual fell into thought as he saw this young man in front of him saying that his arrogance will be the cause of his fall. He did not rush to reply but thinking about the last phrase he said, "You are not strong enough to kill us all, but yes, the palace can be razed to the ground."

Yang Dao nodded, he said, "It is indeed true that I cannot kill everyone in this region because I have human emotions and I do not take a human life for granted. However, there are others, who can do it. Shall I call over my attendant for you to see?" he cleverly injected a trace of death law in his voice.

Jual heard these words and his body trembled uncontrollably. His eyes opened wide with pupils dilated to pinpoints. Only now did he realize the horror of the boy in front of him. The law of death affected people when used. It will uncover the darkest fears in your heart and make them amplify by a hundred times.

Yang Dao used this not only to intimidate Jual but also to make him imagine that their blind arrogance can spell the death of the whole region, but because he had heard from Dawn that this guy had been on the battlefield and had suffered a lot before he could finally prevail in that hellish situation.

The death law amplified the horrors of the battlefield in his mind, providing him with a vivid picture of destruction. Yang Dao used the law of life and said, "You may not believe me, but harmony can be achieved easily, but the maintenance is what costs a lot of effort."

Jual relaxed and gradually woke up from the horrible nightmare in his mind. He did not expect the strength of this young man to be so horrible. He was aware that all these scenes of turmoil and agony only surfaced in his brain because of Yang Dao's voice.

He decided to believe in what the young man had just said. He asked, "Lord, how do you plan to deal with the rest of the people. How will correct their heart?"

Yang Dao smiled and said, "Humans are interesting. Once they face death they all come to find a new value in life. Only when they see the benefits of another path do they move towards it."

Jual did not understand what Yang Dao meant to him when he said these words. The boy shook his head and said, "You will know in the future. For, now, you do not retire from the palace. I will need to be by my side."

Jual nodded and said nothing. After a few moments of silence, he asked, "Would you not go to address the people?"

Yang Dao sighed and said, "I am tired from the battle. I will do it in the morning tomorrow. Till then I need to think. You can leave, also, send my attendant here."

Jual nodded and left the room with precipitation on his forehead. He did not wish to see this young man too often. He even thought in his heart that staying away from him was better for his heart. As he came out of the study, he found that Feng Yun was led over by Dawn.

He did not know when was his granddaughter so good with other people. He was not paying attention earlier so he did not know who this beautiful lady was, but just as he was about to ask, Feng Yun cast him a gaze. This gaze made his heart agitated again. It was not excitement but fear. This feeling was similar to what he had seen inside Yang Dao's eyes.

Feng Yun ignored his expressions and after thanking Dawn she went inside. Leaving the two people outside the door of the study room. Inside the room, she saw Yang Dao leaning against the wall and gazing outside from the window. She said, "Thinking about something?" in her soft voice.

Yang Dao nodded and said, "Destruction of their mindset, and create a new one. How will I do it? That is the question."

Feng Yun smiled and said, "If only, it was that easy."

"Easy or not, I will do it. Do not worry." said Yang Dao.. He was all set to destroy the arrogant mindset these people had before he could create anything.
