Heavenly Dao Child 176 Hidden Dragon Obelisk

Tsuji looked at Ryuu incredulously as she spoke sarcastically, "Yeah and I am 2 year old, and the joke of yours is tasteless."

Katsumi: "Why did you shout sister?"

Tsuji: "What are doing here sister I thought you would be with our dear brother and as for me shouting it was because Ryuu is making a bad joke stating he is only 15."

Katsumi rolled her eyes as she spoke, "I felt as if I was a third wheel between them as such I left to join you, and you are right fellow daoist brother it is not nice to lie about your age and here I thought people accused us woman of being trying to hide our age."

Ryuu literally pouted at that as he spoke, "I am telling you I am 15 years only, if only I could prove to you."

Yura: "We could use the 'Hidden Dragon' obelisk to taste Ryuu's claim."

Tsuji: "Hmmm it would work well then let us take a small detour."

Ryuu looked confused at that as he asked them, "What is this 'Hidden Dragon' obelisk thing?"

Tsuji spoke with a smile, "When my ancestor founded our empire, he first started with a small village this very city rests on the ground where the ancient village of Habakar was once present. One day an obelisk fell from the sky and landed near the village, which is currently the center of our city, we do not know how or who created the obelisk but it has strange powers as it seemed to record the cultivation level, age and name of a person, but it is some limitations such as it is firstly only able to hold a hundred names whenever someone better touches it the person whose name is at the lowest is removed another limitation is that it only records the name of a person who is below 45 years of age."

Ryuu was now intrigued at that as he spoke, "Cool then let us go there will the students from your school participate as well Senior Yura."

Yura: "We were planning to as well at the end of our trip but if we are visiting there why not."

They soon reached the tall grey colored obelisk which seemed to have nothing special except names of people written on them.

Ryuu looked at that with interest he could not identify the material used to make the obelisk, 'interesting may be if I move close I might be able to identify the material but if not because of lack of knowledge about various materials I could ask my teacher about it later on.'

It looked like a carnival as a large number of people were present from various walks of life trying their luck on the obelisk a long queue had been formed in front of it as the guards managed the line a fee of 10 low tier spirit stone was required for anyone who were hopeful about putting their name of the obelisk, but unfortunately so far none succeeded even after that everyone just wanted to touch it as a joke.

Ryuu mumbled under his breath, "People have too much free time and money."

Katsumi who was nearest to him just snorted at that.

Yura: "Girls form a line here and Ryuu where do you want to stand?"

Ryuu: "I am well off near the back."

As the queue moved forward only a single person was able to have his name imprinted on the obelisk only to have it erased soon after as all of a sudden a group made their name on the obelisk replacing many previous name holders."

Tsuji just grumbled in frustration causing Ryuu to take a glance at her as he asked, "Is something wrong senior?"

Tsuji sighed in exasperation as she spoke, "Well nothing my sister's name fell to the 15th position. Ryuu do you see that name up there.", Tsuji pointed to a name at the top of the list Nobuyoshi, "That name is my great great grandfather it has been more than a few thousand of years since his name took the first position no one has been able to dethrone him, when he reached a very high realm he just left with his wife since then no one knows where he went."

Ryuu looked at the name which was at the very top, "Nobuyoshi 42yrs. 4th rank Primal Daoist, glowing in gold."

"Ah Yura how have you been?", came a suave voice as man walked towards her dressed in expensive looking clothes.

Yura groaned as she spoke in a tired voice, "What do you want Dong Bao?"

The person named Dong Bao smirked as he spoke, "Why so cold Yura I just came here to say hello to you nothing more."

Yura: "Since you have done so now leave."

Dong Bao gave a sly smile as he spoke, "My you all girls from 'Golden Immortal Fairy' school are such cold hearted."

Suddenly there was huge commotion amongst people as the obelisk gave released a small chime, "Look look the second name on the list has changed, 'Dong Guo, 40yrs., 9th rank Wanxiang adept'."

"Who is he? Who is this heaven defying genius?", "Don't you know he is the son of the Emperor of Aslasan Empire, he is called the 'Dragon of Aslasan', he is literally dragon in human skin."

As the people discussed amongst themselves they parted ways to give way to an black haired person with a permanent scowl on his face, he walked with his chin held high as if it was beneath him to even let alone breathe in the same air as those around him, even the way he let his foot fall it seemed as if the ground should be grateful and honored that he had stepped on it.

To Ryuu it seemed funny he could easily point a half a dozen people who could kill him with a single poke yet this person acted as if he was better than them such arrogance. His sisters have always said to him that, 'It is good to e arrogant if you have power to back it', but this fellow doesn't have anything even if he is acclaimed as a heaven defying genius including himself but if they get killed even before they could realize their full potential it will mean nothing and the current fellow was too eager to anger some powerful senior and have a one way ticket to afterlife.

The person named Dong Guo approached Dong Bao as he spoke, "Bao let us leave."

Dong Bao hurriedly spoke, "Yes your highness but before that let me introduce you to the famous beauty of 'Golden Immortal Fairy' school 'Yura', by then Yura had already turned her head and started moving towards other students standing on the queue as such Guo did not see her visage as he arrogantly spoke, "I do not have time waste on some lowly cultivator so that they may bask at my brilliance."

Dong Bao smiled awkwardly as he spoke, "Yes your Highness let us leave then."

Guo just gave a loud 'Hn' as he started moving.

Ryuu muttered loudly, "Wow from the looks of things it seemed that not only he is suffering from severe case of constipation but is also touched in the head."

At that all those near him started laughing loudly even Yura was snickering at that while Tsuji was loudest of them all.

Suddenly a humongous aura of a 2nd rank Immortal level cultivator fell on their shoulders causing the anyone in their immediate vicinity to all on their knees causing everyone who were of Immortal realm or above to draw their weapons as they pointed towards the transgressor their bloodlust filling up the air.

Ryuu looked nonchalantly even if he did not draw out his sword his muscles were tensed ready to fight at moment's notice, the pressure of Dong Bao's cultivation could have asked any other ordinary peak level Void Immortal to be tremble with fear but such was not the condition for Ryuu he was anything but ordinary he just tilted his head as he looked towards Dong Bao who was shaking with anger as he whispered to himself, 'I hate lackeys.'

Dong Bao: "How dare you cur insult his highness I will kill you today."

Ryuu put up an innocent look as he spoke, "I insulted someone what are talking about, and moreover when did I say something in order to insult someone."

Tsuji spoke in an annoyed tone, "Who do you think you are trying to cause a scene here?", she flared her aura scaring Bao.

Dong Bao: "Please Senior I beg of you to allow me to seek justice on my master's behalf this man over there has insulted my master as such as his retainer I cannot withstand such in justice."

Ryuu: "You really are a good actor whoever you might be but what did say to insult him when I do not even know him and for what reason."

Dong Bao: "How dare you no good liar I heard clearly you called my master is 'constipated' and 'touched in his head'."

Ryuu had an innocent look on his face as he replied back to Dong Bao, "I do not know who your master is but if you mean that fellow lying face down near the sewage then yes he kind of looks such, well if he is your master then I must apologize.", Ryuu stated as he pointed towards some beggar.

Dong Bao was incensed at that as he shouted out, "How dare you twist the truth you, I clearly heard you speaking about his Highness."

Ryuu raised one of his eyebrows as he asked Dong Bao, "Did I state his name?"

Dong Bao was stunned into silence as multiple eyes bored on him with anger he squeaked out low, "No you did not state his name."

Ryuu nodded at that as he spoke, "Yet you accused me calling your master as such, I hope it is not your own way of calling your master as such."

Dong Bao became red with anger and shame before he shouted out, "I did not and my master does not suffer from constipation and is not an airhead."

Ryuu gave a scandalized look as he spoke, "How do you know that? Do not tell me you spy on him when he...…..ewww just ewww I want to vomit.", Ryuu held his hands over his mouth as he acted as if he was suffering from nausea.

The man was now wanted to just die the look of disgust from everyone was too much for him.

Tsuji spoke with a smirk, "Well seems like his master decided to support his claims by doing his business in public, what a shameless group."

Dong Bao turned to look behind to see his master Dong Guo on the ground twitch his eyes rolled up foaming in the mouth and his pants were wet and yellowish, it seemed the combined killing intent and aura of many Immortal level cultivators were too much for him.

He hurriedly picked up his charge and then they made themselves scarce from the scene, as the people involved burst into laughter.

Tsuji howled with laughter as she spoke, "That person was really a colossal idiot he dug his own grave like that how he even reached the Immortal level is beyond my understanding. Yura how did you even meet him."

Yura just shrugged as she spoke, "It seems that I have very bad luck."

Meanwhile an old man was meditating inside dark room he suddenly opened his eyes as he spoke out, "He is alive my great child is alive.", he quickly left his room to give the news to the rest of his family specially to his granddaughter, but the downside was he was unable to pinpoint the exact location only the direction and nothing more before he lost the connection again, he sighed as he mused, 'I hope you are alright child, wherever you are be safe your parents will one day surely bring you back home where you belong to.
