Heavenly Dao Child 234 Naetis Imperial Auction house Part-1

Ryuu followed silently beside his teacher he had seen and learned many wondrous things, things beyond his imaginations things whish made him feel powerless, a person so strong that he might just die if that person opens their eyes and looks at him he does not know what to feel because of it.

Celestia glanced at Ryuu, she could really guess what was really going through his mind as she spoke, "Ryuu there is no need to feel anxious because of it, you are young and you have a long road ahead of you, everyone were once in your position including us and that Baba we met before young and weak but see where we are now, whenever you feel down thing about others in your age group I doubt there are any who have achieved as much as you in cultivation at such a young age as such you should not feel anxious or dejected."

Ryuu nodded at that as he walked silently beside his master while talking in sight around him watching the interaction between various beings, as he spoke with awe, "There are so many people with so many races and people from different culture it is amazing."

Celestia nodded at that as she spoke, "You know you remind me of the time when I first saw people of so many different races, I was speechless to see them."

Soon they reached 'Naetis Imperial Auction house', an auction house named after the planet itself, a place which was created to cater to the needs of cultivators who wished to auction their items specially during the ten thousand years banquet, and currently Celestia accompanied Ryuu as they went towards the auction house, as they reached the house they saw a long line of people waiting outside, and another very short a couple of people who were immediately escorted inside by the employees of the auction house.

As they neared a person from the auction house appeared as he bowed to them as he spoke, "Greetings Your Holiness, your young master, please follow me balcony number 214 has been prepared for you, and your family is already waiting for you."

Celestia nodded at that as they were escorted to the balcony, which was already occupied by Maheswara and his family except Antariskh, as they entered Maheswara smiled at them as he spoke, "So how did the visit Senior Daoist Akhileswara go?", even if it was not asked directly the question was clear did Ryuu pass the test.

Celestia smirked as she spoke, "Well all went well Ryuu was able to speak with 'Baba', as well as I was able to get a prayer bead and prayer mat for him, Ryuu was compatible with a 21Mukhi Rudraksha as such the beads were a gift for him."

Veena smirked as she spoke, "Seems like someone managed to impress 'Baba'."

Celestia nodded as she spoke, "Though I never did ask Ryuu what kind of trial he had to complete but he passed splendidly."

Maheswara smiled as he spoke with pride, "As expected of our disciple, Ryuu."

Sylvana spoke with a smile, "Well Ryuu come and sit beside me, the auction is about to start."

As Ryuu took his seat he spoke solemnly, "I wish big sister was here."

The others glanced at each other as Shamiran spoke, "Sorry Ryuu she had some work to do as such she was unable to arrive here with us."

Ryuu frowned at that as Shamiran suddenly spoke, "I do not understand Ryuu, I thought you would be upset at Antariskh because she scolded you for no reason."

Ryuu looked stunned at that as he spoke, "I do not believe that she did not scold me without reason, I also believe that my conduct was not appropriate, I should not have slept during the meeting, and from what I know about big sister well how should I say, she is a bit of perfectionist and demanding as such I think my behavior might have irked her.", he finished with a shrug.

Veena frowned as she spoke, "But she was the one who dragged you there right you did not even want to be there, and the meetings tend to be boring as such when you got fell asleep it was nothing out of ordinary."

Ryuu: "But still I cannot be upset with her, the work she does tends to be very tiring and extremely boring, enough to be a torture and no matter what she claims to be she will definitely get tired and frustrated you should have prevented her leaving at least she could have been able to unwind a bit, and as for her scolding me I believe it is her frustrations that is piling up."

Celestia: "Oh and what made you thing that her job is 'tiring and frustrating'."

Ryuu: "Well when I was in Aonia I helped with her paperwork it was pure madness, not only that sometimes people are so incompetent that it was infuriating dealing with their messes, as such I believe she might have let loose her frustration on me and I do not blame her if I were in her position I would have killed myself to get away from them. But the most importantly what she said was true as well there are many people who are jealous of you all and I just gave them a chance to harm your honor with my behavior."

Maheswara: "Well enough of the depressing thoughts the auction is about to begin."

Meanwhile back in the palace Antariskh soaked herself in rose milk as she sighed, he parents order were absolute and she knew that they would not budge at their decision she knew it would not only take a miracle but a long time before she will be even allowed to be near him let alone speak with him. She sighed at that she knew that her parents coddle Ryuu a lot as such he behaves like an idiotic manner in regards to many things yet her parents usually coddles him, she admits that she may not have made the right judgment regarding that incident with Ryuu but how was she to know he was suffering from heart demon, she knew she was prideful but she had earned her right to be one, normally no matter what one would say in certain place and certain time if Ryuu did not have either that particular type of Divine body nor was he her parents' student she would not even spare a glance towards him and she could bet her soul it would have the same for her family. They might call her prideful and whatnot but are they not prideful as her, of course they are not only that but at the end of the day in some cases they might even surpass her.

She sighed as she leaned on the stone wall of her bath, 'Oh well I will be leaving within a few minutes I have nothing else to do here.' she sighed for the umpteenth time, today I might have scolded him too much but was she wrong at that NO!, Ryuu has garnered attention of many cultivators and if he were any run of the mill cultivator nobody would have cared about it but what he did was giving more arsenal to Ayindril's enemies they might not be able to harm him physically but what about Ayindril's reputation and most importantly her parents. Since the day he became student of her parents he had practically given up any normal life not only that as more people now know about him he will be always judged by them, not only because he is her parents' student but because many view him as my big brother's legacy, no matter what he would do he would always be criticized because of it as he would have to thrive under his large shadow, if he makes a mistake people will say 'He is making a mockery of Pangu and how he is unworthy to be his legacy, how he is unworthy to be her parents' student or even part of her family' just like today she caught some people criticizing him, and if he did something good 'as expected of him but he could have done much better after all his predecessor Pangu was so much….', just the thought of that made her blood boil in anger and she snapped at him like that, she took out her anger on him unjustly but could she do she cannot make them shut up without triggering a war.

Ryuu was a very hardworking child, his hard work is reflected through his cultivation without which there was no way he would have achieved so much and she would rather suffer damnation before his brother was belittled by someone, and Pangu she grew up with him and she knew him very well and in a way they thought correctly if a 15 year old Pangu were present today he would have done better, he would have plopped his leg on top of a chair and would have been snoring away without any care at least compared to him Ryuu was struggling to stay awake, 'Oh well whatever no matter what ever any would say or want I will never let his growth be hindered by anyone even if it was by my dead brother, I will never allow him to become an imitation of Pangu even if I have to become his enemy.'
