Chapter 460 - Sparring.
Yang Dao walked out of the room after discussing with his grandparents and came to his room. Steward Jill will be coming over later so she was told. The boy thanked the maid for guiding him through the unfamiliar corridors as he entered his room.
He closed the door as he got inside and the next moment he sat down on the mat in the center of the room and began to cultivate. After a few minutes, he had entered a deep state of meditation and at this moment he found some information hidden inside his head.
This was not the first time he had found something like this hidden in his mind, so he was not surprised, he maintained his calm and explored the information inside his mind. Like the past, as he read the information, it blended with him as if it was a part of him.
Yang Dao was dwelling over the information in his mind, unaware of the things happening outside.
...
Yue Jiren sat inside a dim-lit room, with his gaze lingering outside the window. He said, "Inform Yue Ming, he must be ready to welcome his cousin."
A voice echoed inside the room, "Yes, Lord."
The person did not show the outline of his body from the start to the end. Yue Jiren mumbled, "Ling, your son is just like you, however, I will not go easy on him, but I might spare his life, for the sake of blood ties."
An eery smile surfaced on his face. The temperature inside the room dropped a lot. No one could tell what was going on in his mind. Yue Jiren was not anything like his handsome appearance. If someone got a hold of the things that he was capable of doing for his gains, they will be shocked. They will peg him to be a member of a high-level clan.
The people in the clan were already aware that he will do something ever since he had left the dining hall. However, they did not know what he would do.
...
Jenny looked at her husband's visage and asked, "What do you think Yue Jiren will do?"
Yue Lei Wang was not clueless and naive as he projected. He was very ruthless, but he has been keeping one eye close and one open as he saw all the things going around in the clan. He replied to the lady, "Do not worry, no harm will come to the boy. Even if I do not lend him a hand, he will not suffer. The boy is strong and has a good head over his head."
Jenny nodded and said, "I will send him the dragon charm."
Yue Lei Wang cast her a gaze and nodded. Dragon charm was a protective pendant that Jenny wore on her person all the time. It was a gift the old man had given him.
...
Ryu Jinshi sighed and said, "These unworthy descendants, getting slain for their arrogance and becoming artifacts."
He did not like when the humans would slay dragons, but this was all for the balance of the world. Dragons were extremely strong and sometimes, well mostly, they were arrogant to the point where Ryu Jinshi himself wanted to slay some of his descendants.
Suddenly, he heard a voice from behind, "Master Ryu, Madam Yun asked for your presence in the ministry."
The man stood up from his chair and said, "Okay."
...
Yang Dao sat on the floor with his mind dwelling on a sword art inside his mind. The aura around him was transitioning from sharp to gentle, from swift to slow. This was him cultivating the way of the sword. The sword inside his head was something that synchronized with him almost instantly. The harmony he felt when using his spirit energy to practice this sword was like nothing he had sensed ever before.
Yang Dao was awoken from his meditation when he heard a knocking sound outside. He said, "Come in."
He could sense that his pairing partner has arrived. The door was pushed open and Steward Jill walked inside. She bowed and said, "Young Master, when would you like to start training?"
The boy smiled and said, "Can we do it now?"
Jill smiled and nodded and asked, "Would you like to go to the private cultivation room?"
Yang Dao shook his head and said, "That will be needed later. Today, I would like to get a feel of it." mischievous grin on his face
Jill understood his meaning and nodded. Yang Dao wanted to go and have about with the young ones in the place. The lady said, "Young Master, please follow me. I will take you to the training ground of the clan."
Yang Dao sprang up from the floor and quickly followed her. The two people walked for ten minutes, and finally, the boy found himself in front of the public training field. This place was barren and devoid of human life. He asked, "What is this?"
Jill said, "The youngsters in the clan all have their private cultivation rooms. They do not come out here."
Yang Dao sighed and said, "Very well then, come let us begin."
The two walked to the center of the field. Yang Dao said, "Sister Jill, I am at the top of the spirit gathering realm, but you do not have to hold back. Beat me down, and do it seriously."
Jill was surprised by this request of his but she also respected him for this. not a lot of people had the courage to ask someone who was three major realms ahead of them to not hold back. She nodded and said, "Come."
The next moment, Yang Dao charged at her with a fast speed, he did not reveal his complete strength at the first chance. He charged with just the speed of a first-tier spirit gathering realm. His fists were aimed at the vital points of Jill, but it was all blocked by the lady. She said, "Young Master, you have a sharp instinct, but your blows become too obvious.. Try to mix feints and act more decisively."
