HEAVENLY DAO CHILD Chapter 11: BEGINNING OF THE END (PART 5)

Few minutes later.
Zhu Zhu: 'Strange i do not feel any presence in the house and the lights are off, did something happen.', she tiptoed inside the house.
Suddenly the lights were turned on and a shout came, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!."
A stunned Zhu Zhu looked in shock as the mother son duo appeared before her with a cake with the words "HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE MOST AWESOME AUNT ZHU ZHU."
Tears of happiness formed in her eyes on seeing the cake. "Oh my baby nephew made cake for his aunty let me see let me see it. Wow it is so beautiful, I love it."
Zhu hugged Ryuu lovingly as if he were the most precious priceless treasure and kissed his forehead.
Ryuu "Aunt I have another thing for you let me bring it.", with that he released himself from hisaunt's embrace and ran to get the present.
Zhu Zhu: "Oi Oi sis what is he bringing?"
Song Ya shook her head and with a confused face she replied,"I don't know."
Ryuu: "Here it is aunty open it open it." As he presented a rolled up canvas to Zhu Zhu.
Zhu Zhu's eye widened as she gave soft gasp upon seeing her present, a painting, a crude drawing made by Ryuu depicting her and Xiao Xiao with Ryuu standing in the middle and holding hand with big smile on every one's face, the word's 'MY HAPPY FAMILY', on top of the painting.
Zhu Zhu her heart was overwhelmed with happiness and gave Ryuu a bone crushing hug while repeating "THANK YOU THANK YOU" over and over again.
Song YA: " Wow! my son is a genius he drew such a nice painting we are definitely putting it on a frame, mmmmm where should I hang it."
Zhu Zhu: "Hmp this is going to hang in my room Ryuu gave it to me, showing he loves me more than you, if you want another go get it yourself."
Song Ya with fake tears stated," Wah Wah Ryuu doesn't love me anymore."
Ryuu seeing his mother panicked and hugged her legs as he stated with tears forming in his eyes,"Mama, I love both you and aunty i made another for you but I wanted to give it to you on your birthday."
Song ya: "HEHEHEHE, child don't feel sad I was just teasing.",as she rubbed Ryuu's head lovingly.
Ryuu pouted and said,"Mama meanie."
With that everyone laughed.
Soon it was time for Ryuu to go to sleep, Song Ya tucked his son into bed and went towards courtyard where she found Zhu Zhu waiting for her.
Seeing her sister in all but blood arrive Zhu Zhu took out a wine bottle and two cups, Song Ya sat beside her while Zhu Zhu gave her a cup and then filled both the cups.
"Cheers for a good long life hahahah", stated both the sisters as they gulped down the wine.
Zhu Zhu: "The old monster finally came out of seclusion".
Song Ya choked on the wine she was drinking and sprayed out the entire thing on Zhu Zhu's face, and started panicking.
"Oh god what am I going to do? he will detect Ryuu then they will come to kill him, what will I....."
Zhu Zhu: "Come down Sis, nothing like that going to take place, from what I learnt he declared the bounty on your and Ryuu's head to be abolished, and both of to be welcomed back in to clan."
Song Ya: "Huh, what is that geezer planning, don't tell they are making us lower our guard then kill us."
Zhu Zhu frowned: "My thoughts exactly we have to be cautious, we cannot hide Ryuu from that geezers eyes, even if he really wants us back and is not planning anything nefarious, your brother and sister-in-law would..."
Song Ya stated with a heated glare, " Absolutely not those narrow minded bigoted people will never take my baby from me. I would love to see them try I will break them in half."
Zhu Zhu:"Hahahaha its great to see the fearless old Xiao Xiao back in action, how I miss those days the three of us, you, me and brother Wulan, adventuring together."
Song Ya looked sad on hearing the name of her beloved,"Zhu would he have approved of me raising Ryuu ."
Zhu Zhu snorted on hearing that question,"Approve of you, I can clearly imagine him running around bragging and boring every random strangers to death with 'how awesome my baby boy is'".
Song Ya laughed at that,"Yeah I can also imagine that Ryuu doesn't need to know anyone except us three as his family after all he is our legacy", she finished with a proud smile on her face.

Suddenly they stiffened ,their house went up in flames of explosion.

"JEJEJEJE as expected of 'Shadow Serpent' and 'Asura Xiao' to escape from our sneak attack", an obnoxious voice came to their ears.
"Who are you? you have guts coming after our heads", roared out an angered Zhu Zhu.
"Aw why so angry beauty is someone on your period, Jijiji don't worry lets give you some loving we will show you your place under us"
As they heard the laughter from all the men surrounding them.

"Mama who are these people, they are scary?", came a fearful voice of Ryuu.
Song Ya: "Don't fear baby they are some insects, me and your aunty will squash them in no time"

"Squash us, men show those bitches there proper place, capture them alive the first one to capture them gets the first turn as for the child there are plenty who would love a toy like him, go."

With that the people charged with various talisman, weapon arts, puppetry and many different attacks.

"Devils Saber lunge"
"Chaotic god spear arts"
"God Sealing Talisman"

"Divine Guard's Shield", Song Ya used her technique to block those technique.

"Yai yai so so strong 'Asura Xiao' really is so strong take attack of a hundred immortal as if nothing really so strong."
"Oi you coward why don't you show yourself instead of hiding behind your mom's skirt are we too hot for you to handle", Zhu Zhu mocked.

"As you wish my future pet."

Suddenly a figure became visible with a few more people.
"Blood devil sect's Gu you bastard how dare you show your face not only killed my fiance now you are after my child I will destroy your soul if its the last thing I do".
"Damn brother Gu she sure is the feisty one", stated another man licking his lips eyeing Xiao Xiao lasciviously ,"I would love to break that slut."
Song Ya: " Aren't you Ji San's little brother Ji Yon? Does the Ji clan trying to betray Xia Dynasty by colluding with Blood Devil Sect. How dare you? Vance clan is already coming together with Xia clan to take us back home they won't let you people go scot-free."
Ji Yon laughed loudly, "Us colluding with Blood Devil Sect, hahahaha, little girl our ancestor created the Blood Devil Sect, and don't worry we will take care of you before those dogs arrive."

"Poison Emperor's embrace" a voice suddenly came and very fast moving poisonous cloud suddenly
surrounded everyone.
Zhu Zhu sent a mental message to Xiao Xiao, "Sis don't lose your calm, Ryuu is not strong
enough to withstand a full on fight we have to find a way to retreat or else he will be in grave da....."
Suddenly they heard a voice, "Divine Guard's Shield", a voice they haven't heard in years, world seem to stop around Xiao Xiao, as she was stunned to see hear beloved standing with the enemy.
Zhu Zhu: "Xiao sis snap out of it its a puppet, think about Ryuu..."
Zhu zhu was suddenly sneaked attacked by mental energy stunning her.
"Heavenly Guard's last stance, Final Spear", a spear attack came towards Xiao Xiao, an attack she was familiar with the same attack her love Wulan used to protect them sacrificing his life that was the last time she saw him.
Suddenly she awoke from her dream as she felt Ryuu crying shaking in fear holding her tightly. She knew there was no way she could dodge that attack it was to close Ryuu will die.
She was forced to use her trump card, to protect Ryuu, "Heavenly Guard's last Stand, Sacrificial Divine Shield", with that she ignited her dantian and cultivation and thus protected herself and Ryuu.
Suddenly She saw Zhu zhu standing infront of her with a talisman in her hand she gave a smile towards Ryuu and Xiao Xiao,"Run Sis take my baby nephew, our legacy to safety", with that she used the talisman to teleport them away.
"Damn old man will be pissed I just destroyed one of his master piece, but the bitch ran away".
"Don't worry I have her marked she can't run away the last attack already injured her gravely its matter of time before we tear that bitch apart, lets kill this half dead bitch already, its miracle she is still standing after I used Yama's embrace on her."
Zhu zhu laughs mockingly," Yama's embrace, hahahah to think I Zhu Zhu will die to such a bastard poison hahaha"
Gu:"My my the bitch snapped thinking even her soul won't survive jijijiji, hmmp", Gu frowned.
Zhu Zhu smiled,"I see you noticed i already hijacked the array you were trying to imprison us now you will die here with me"
Ji Yon:"Quickly kill that bitch before she blows her core and kills us".
Zhu Zhu took out the painting the gift Ryuu gave her from her space ring, she caressed it lovingly as she said with sad smile,"Sorry my baby nephew I won't be able to play with you, teach you, see you grow up, but, thank you for coming in our life.", with that Zhu Zhu spirit beast of Xiao Xiao, aunt and godmother of Ryuu, detonated her core killing every living being within that continent.

Millions of miles away a bright light flashed indicating the arrival of Xiao Xiao and Ryuu, suddenly she felt a huge explosion going on in a distance, tear fell through her eyes as she realised the death of her sister. She knew there was no time to rest soon the side effect of her damaged cultivation and soul will show up she will be weakened to the point even a mortal child will kill, she needed to find somewhere safe for her baby boy.

Suddenly the air distorted a few miles from her it spat out a group of people.
"Damn that whore she killed most of us, I had to use that special talisman I found in that ruins all those years ago. "
"Jijijij the heaven's seems to be helping us today look over there."
"hahahah lets slaughter those mongrels."

Xiao Xiao was running in desperation with tears running from her face, 'Why why why heavens is so unfair, what has my child done so wrong please please anyone please save my child.'
Suddenly the side effect of her technique kicked in she fell from the sky she couldn't control her speed and crashed into the ground, Ryuu was thrown off from her grasp hit the ground hard breaking his arm and he wailed in pain, he couldn't understand what happen they were so happy why those meany people came what happened to his mam, where is his aunty, he was scared, his hand was in odd shape and it hurt.
Suddenly he felt a soothing calming sensation and he heard an angelic voice,"Who are you my Child? What happened?"
"Some meany people hurt my mama, please help us", Ryuu wailed out to the lady.
The lady touched his head to comfort him, but she widened her eyes as if She has seen a ghost, but she quickly composed her expression.
"Child what is you name?"
"Ryuu"
The woman smiled at Ryuu then waved her hand as Xiao suddenly appeared beside Ryuu even though she was badly injured herself she quickly went to her child's side,"My baby, forgive mother i dropped you, oh my god your hand is broken."
The woman standing beside them felt as if someone was spying on the child, she broke the contact and gave warning to the spy,"SCRAM!!".
"Child I can help you and your mother but you have to be my student.", Xiao Xiao watched in amazement as the woman, no Goddess would be an appropriated word, for such a beautiful regal looking women, healed her child's arm with a flick of a finger."
Ryuu looked at the woman her eyes showed the same kind of warm as his mama and his aunty, Ryuu felt as if he had known that woman a feeling of happiness and warmth rushed through his body.
"Disciple greets master."

Suddenly an obnoxious voice interupted them,
"Well look over here how the mighty have fallen, jijiji."
"~whistle~ what a beauty damn I can't wait to plough her."
"Are you the one who caused grief to this child and his mother.", asked the lady angrily.
"Yeah we totally did its a shame that other bitch committed suicide, well seems to us we will have to take our frustrations on you, it will be wise to surrender quietly we will fill you up lovingly"
"HAHAHAHA",the others laughed at that.
The woman looked furious and uttered a single word,"DIE", it was as if a heavenly decree, anything outside the circle in which they were died, whether they be trees, animals, insects, humans everyone died.
Ryuu and his mother watched in awe at the sheer magnitude of the lady's power.
The lady looked at the child with motherly gaze and extended her hand towards Ryuu,"Lets go home my disciple".
That was the day when I think back was the day when I lost one of my precious person one of my family, also the day I met her my 'Teacher', one of the strongest being I ever met' and later on one of my family. As the wheels of my fate changed for the better or for the worse.
Ryuu took hold of his teacher's hand and they vanished from that placed.

Many minutes later a flying ship arrived there,

"Grandfather-in-law what could have happened to them", Fang inquired to Yujie.

"This i don't think the Ji clan is strong enough to stop my Divine vision nor Xiao Xiao can kill them like this I think someone very powerful rescued them for what that I don't know."
