Chapter 245 - Departure.
Yang Dao sat on the chopper with Feng Yun he laid back in the seat and relaxed. The hard work did tire him. He asked in a low voice, "Where are we going?"
The two leopards sat beside him and placed their heads in his lap. Feng Yun replied, "You are departing on a new adventure with XiaoBai. Dao, be very careful when you go out there. Understand?"
The calm lady sounded unusually concerned and anxious. Yang Dao nodded to her. He asked, "How long I will be gone for? I will need to make arrangements for a lot of things."
Feng Yun said, "You will be gone for a month at the least. Your performance there will decide the actual duration of your trip. Also, you can make the arrangements now. Once the chopper lands, you will have no internet access."
Yang Dao picked up his phone and called Kylie Dew after a long time. The call was answered in an instant. An excited voice sounded from the other side, "Well, how come you recalled to call me, Dao?"
The boy smiled wryly and said, "Actually, I need a favor from you."
Kylie Dew fell quiet and asked after a few moments, "What is it?"
"Can you look after the growth of the AI program I designed in my absence?" his words were like a nuclear missile hitting the target. At this moment, Kylie Dew was shocked, her pupils were dilated to the limit of the human body.
She asked, "What did you just say?"
Yang Dao repeated himself and said, "I have my maid Lisa at home. You only need to go my place once a week only and check the growth rate. I will have your role set as a moderator in the system. How about it can you do it?"
Kylie Dew replied, "I am going right now. Also, can I see the code?" she was obviously in fan girl mode. Yang Dao agreed to her and after disconnecting the call he called Lisa about this. He sent a message to his friends saying that he is going out for a month. Just when he was done with all this he got a call from an unknown number.
He connected the call and found that the caller was a girl. He asked, "May I know who is this?"
The other side spoke, "I am Aina, from the A1 car race. I came third. Do you not remember?"
Yang Dao recalled how the girl just took his number and left. He asked, "Yes, I remember. I did not expect you to call me. So, what's up?" his tone was calm and casual.
The girl said, "I saw your team winning the first prize in the inter university so I decided to call you and congratulate."
The two people exchanged a few plesantries and the girl asked, "When will you be back to race on the circuit?"
Yang Dao thought about it and said, "I don't know but probably when the new season begins. Also, Aina, I need to go, I wish you all the best fro the season."
Aina replied him with a thanks and the two people disconnected the phone. That girl did not call him to suck up to him but was just congratulating her idol for his victory. Feng Yun smiled and said, "We are here."
Yang Dao looked outside the window and found a island surrounded by the sea. The island looked like a sphere with eight cliffs standing around it. Feng Yun smiled and said, "The eight cliffs represent the eight laws of heaven. The island is called gateway. It is completely protected from the satellites and human probes."
Yang Dao nodded as he heard these words. The sylph peeked out from his hair and said, "Master, the elemental fluctuations are very strong here. Unlike the other places. This place is somewhat like my home."
Feng Yun nodded and said, "Little one, you are quite sharp."
Sushi blushed at the compliment and hid in Yang Dao's hair again. The chopper flew closer to the island and Feng Yun said, "The chopper is piloted by my trusted shadow guards. So, it is not a problem. Come let us go."
Yang Dao only understood her meaning when she opened the door and Feng Yun jumped out of the cabin. The boy held the two cubs in his arms and jumped out as well, since he was running low on the source energy. He directly bent the wind to fly to the island. Feng Yun led him to the center of the island.
The pair landed in a clearing. The island was covered in lush green grass, a gentle breeze blowing around. On the four corners of the clearing, four stone platforms were visible. They all had different engravings on them. Yang Dao noticed these engravings and he sensed the four different elements coming from them.
He let the cubs go from his embrace and asked, "What do we do now, Sister Yun?"
Feng Yun smiled and said, "Be patient, let the others come over."
Yang Dao nodded and sat down on the lush grass. He said, "I will take a nap." and laid down on the grass directly. This place made him feel like he was in a paradise. So warm, calm and serene. The felling was flooding his heart and as he laid down, the wind started to brush over him gently, the grass around him became more radiant.
Sushi was flying around suddenly stopped. Her gaze was locked with Yang Dao. The boy was now covered in a dim gloden light. Her tiny body shivered as she asked, "Goddess, is this Dao resonance?"
Feng Yun nodded with a smile. She said, "You seem quite knowledgeable, little one. It is indeed Dao resonance. The one who sleeps in front of us is none other than the Dao Child. This place is the Dao is strongest in the whole world. This is why he is at ease here."
Sushi had knelt down on the ground, and she prostated herself to the boy who slept with a smile on his face. Feng Yun said, "Dao resonance will heal him up. As for the other things related to Dao resonance, you will discover in the future. Now go around and play."
Sushi nodded and flew a distance away but she did not leave like earlier. Yang Dao being the Dao Child was something shockening to her. Soon, three figures appeared in the sky. They were none other than Ryu Jinshi, Laohu Bai, and Atsuji Kurogame. The time of departure was close.
