Heavenly Dao Child 153 Xegreacium card

Ryuu had a small notepad in his hand and a writing device called 'The Fountain Pen', as he wrote down about various places which are of interests for tourist like him. He loved using this fountain which his teacher gave him on his 15th birthday by his 2nd mistress Nuwa. Since he had first learned to write he had learned it with the help of brush including when he creates any form of array he uses brush and ink from inkpot, but recently he was gifted a set of two almost identical 'pens' one for writing and another for creating the arrays.

His pen contains over 30 carats of diamonds on a solid platinum barrel. It has a two-tone, rhodium-treated, 18KT solid gold nib and is personalized with a picture of a dragon one with red one which was meant for writing and the black one for using while creating arrays.

He fell in love with it while writing not only it is easier and convenient in comparison to brush but also much hassle free but he did not want to voice it to his teachers he did not need any after hours training he shuddered at those dreadful and painful memories.

Ryuu: "Thank Daoist brother when my master send me hear I was flying blind I did not have any idea where I should I go and what to do, I am very lucky that I found you."

Sir Emerick laughed loudly at that, "Hahahahaha, you do not need to mention that brother you are like a guest here and being a good host it is my duty to help you, oh and look we have arrived at your destination and I am afraid I will not be able to accompany you any more I have my on duty to perform."

Ryuu: "Thank you for helping me Daoist brother I am grateful to you for your help in spite of your busy schedule."

Sir Emerick: "It was no problem for me, in fact I am happy to be your help well till then goodbye and good luck."

Ryuu nodded at him as he made his way towads Shangri-la pavilion meanwhile Sir Emerick was greeted by none other than Prince Jarrick the youngest child of Emperor Broderick, "Ah Sir Emerick how have you been? I heard there was a commotion at the font gate today."

Sir Emerick gave a knightly bow as he spoke, 'Good morning Prince Jarrick, I have been good and as for today's commotion it was just an adventuring Daoist who came here for the first time as such I helped him to get gate pass as well as his strange flying ship."

Prince Jarrick looked interested at that the gossipers of the city were working overtime as the new of a strange looking flying ship had spread everywhere as such with great interest he started asking various questions to Sir Emerick.

Meanwhile Ryuu had entered the building as he went towards the receptionist who greeted him with a smile, "Good Morning Sir, my name is Charlotte how may I help you today."

Ryuu: "To you to Charlottle my name is Ryuu and I have some business to conduct with Shangri-la, and oh here is my card."

When Ryuu was leaving Ayindril Maheswara had given him a strange looking small card which was blood red in colour ruby but surprisingly when it was held in sunlight at certain angles it gave of different colour.

Charlotte held the weird looking paper thin card which she had never seen in her life, the card was cold as if it was kept under ice for a long time, as well as it was even lighter than a feather and looked so fragile that it would break under a little bit of pressure, she would have rejected the card were it not for the logo and markings of Shangri-la engraved on it.

She placed the card against a machine know as a card reader, the machine read the array placed on the card with whose help they separated among more frequent customers, normally the card was separated into 5 types, starting from the lowest value Bronze, then Silver, then Gold, then Platinum and ending with a Diamond card.

In her entire life she had never seen this kind of card not only that the Emperor himself is only capable of holding a Gold Tier card.

She sighed thinking this was another phoney and now after verifying that the card is a fake she will have to call the guards and following protocols give this fellow a sound thrashing before handing him over to proper authorities.

Only for not only the card to be accepted but even the head of Shangri-la pavillion's Kitopia branch to come running towards the reception his face filled with anxiety.

As he approached he greeted Ryuu as he spoke with reverence, "Greetings esteemed Daoist are you the owner of the 'Xegreacium Card'?", as he took the card from the receptionist's hands and holding it with extreme care.

Ryuu nodded stiffly as he spoke, "Yes I am."

The person escorted him to the V.I.P. room with utmost reverence to the point Ryuu thought that if given chance the fellow would lick his boots clean.

Ryuu sighed as he understood it was another outrageous things that his teachers might have given to him as he mused, 'Children who are born to rich parents and are given access to various expensive material are often said to be referred to as being 'born with silver spoon in his/her mouth', so what am I then, 'born with platinum spoon in my mouth.'"

Later that day a group of people were present in a private if someone from Kitopia Empire was present they would have easily identified this people as the Emperor and the Empress even their older children were present, Lady Brice as well among others who were their closest friends.

As they were speaking a woman suddenly spoke to the Empress, "Big sister Michelle, what is this rumour about your daughter being enamoured by someone who is this lucky person?"

The Empress now identified as Michele sighed as she spoke, "How would I know sister, she suddenly proclaimed her undying love for someone completely unknown and is being stubborn about it."

Jaelynn scowled at that as she spoke, "You would not understand mother I have yet to see someone as perfect as him, as such I view him as the only man worthy for him."

Hearing her proclamation a sound of creaking was heard as the wine cup held on his hands cracked Broderick cracked as he hissed out, "I would love to meet that no good boy as well before I bash him to death for seducing my daughter.", as his killing intent poured out, while a hooded Ryuu shivered in fear as if his life was immediate danger.

"Old friend, who is this dauntless person? who had the audacity to incur your wrath?", spoke another person in a jovial tone, if Ryuu was here he would have identified him as the head of the Kitopia Branch of Shangri-la who he was conducting business a few hours prior to the current event.

The group present in the garden was some of the most influential people in the entire Empire from the General to Ministers of the Empire including their spouses as well as their children well at least their heirs.

Before he could respond the youngest child of the royal family a thirteen year old Prince Jarrick came barging in, "Mother Father you will not believe how cool looking flying vessel a Daoist came in today."

The Empress sighed sometimes her youngest can be handful as she spoke, "Jarrick behave yourselves you are in front of your seniors."

Jarrick pouted as he spoke, "But mother this Daoist Ryuu's ship was so cool and awesome looking I have never seen such ship like that if only I could get hold....."

He was stopped from speaking by an impatient Jaelynn who shook him hard, "Brother did the ship had ..."

Only to be stopped forcefully by Jordan himself as he spoke in an angry tone, "Sister please calm yourself this is unbecoming of you, and stop embarrassing behaviour and please release our younger brother you are hurting him."

Broderick sighed angrily as he flared his aura as he spoke, "Jaelynn please stop this nonsense and leave now go back to your room you will stay there until I say so and General Vincenzo I want you to send some of your men to hunt him down."

Samuel Duncan the Branch Head of Shangri-la spoke, "Does this Ryuu fellow have crimson hair and heterochromic eyes?"

Jaelynn nodded in confirmation as she spoke, "Yes senior he has."

Before anyone could speak anything Brice spoke happily, "Perfect if you have already met him it will be a lot easier to track him and Jaelynn from what he did to him."

Samuel shook his head negatively as he spoke, "I am afraid it will not be an easy task Lady Brice."

At that Michelle cocked her eyebrow as she asked, "Why is it difficult brother Samuel?"

Samuel took a deep breath as he spoke, "In our Pavilion you all know that there are different cards like gold, silver, etc. many of you know that the highest card is Diamond and usually a lot of conditions need to be fulfilled for one to be granted one, but what others do not know that there is another card known as Xegreacium card, I have seen that card twice in my life time the first one during training and the second time today I never thought I would view it again. This card can be granted by the owner of the Shangri-la in this case the Legendary Empress Antariskh herself, the best part of this card I that I is oul bound to the owner which means it will remain active within 10 feet of the owner and be destroyed on the owner's death."

Vincezo: "Lord Samuel does his person knows 'The Empress' personally."

Samuel nodded as he spoke, "While speaking with him I was able to determine he knows 'The Empress' on personal level."

At that everyone was stunned on hearing that specially the older generation while the younger looked confused.

Jarrick spoke looking extremely confused, "What is so special about this Empress person?"

Samuel: "Many of the younger generation do not know but there are cultivators no monsters lurking amongst us who have immeasurable strength the Empress and her sisters being one no one knows how powerful she is but a few millennia a go a Daofather ranked cultivator belonging to Shangri-la tried to revolt, tried being the key word as he was caught broken into a lifeless husk and anyone suspected of being in leagues with him even if that person was just a simple maid had their entire lineage even if their descendants were a baby were burned alive."

At that all the younger generations had a green face.

Samuel took a deep breath as he spoke, "This Ryuu is not ordinary, junior Jaelynn is right about his otherworldly handsomeness which I a ashamed to admit even managed to shake my heart as such I advise to you all to not look directly at his face. But that is not the scariest thing about him it is his cultivation."

At that everyone gulped hard as Broderick spoke, "Is this Ryuu fellow some cultivating old monster like that 'Empress'?"

Samuel laughed at that as he spoke, "Hardly he is young very young in fact he is only a fifteen years old only."

At that everyone sighed as Michelle spoke, "Please brother do not scare us like that how dangerous can a measly 15 year old be."

Followed after his mother's lead as eh spoke, "Senior I am already a rank 3rd Xiantian, a person who is only a cuple of years older is not much for me."

Samuel just shook his head in exasperation as he spoke, "That it be true if he was only a normal 15 year old but a please show me another 15 year old who he is a Peak Level Void Immortal."

At that everyone was stunned on hearing that some of them dropped their cups as their jaw dropped on hearing about that as a loud shout was heard throughout the beautiful garden, "WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

As Samuel smiled warily as his thoughts went to the meeting he had with Ryuu.
