Heavenly Dao Child
/ Heavenly Dao Child 56 Agonizing Thirs
Long Yu just smiled at her, "Miss Kyouki why don't you and your friends do the same. After all not only it would save you all from humiliation but it also would stop me from feeling ashamed to have the likes of as my slave, even it is for a day."
The woman bristled at that, 'this pipsqueak surely has a venomous tongue, and we will see how long he puts up such bravado when not all of his body guards are here.'
As they neared the door Long Yu moved to one side of the wall standing in between Ryofu and Veronica with Ryofu clearly taking the lead whereas the others took the other side of the door as Kyouki led them, a glance passed through each of them and with quick subtle movement Kyouki opened the door but hid quickly behind the wall, as because no sooner she did a few big arrows flew in fast and embedded themselves on the wall, the arrows soon started to leak corrosive gas, Long Yu and his temporary team soon fled from the room.
They ran down a long corridor pendulum axe, pit falls, poison needles and what not as they ran out of the corridor into a desert. Long Yu turned around to see the corridor had vanished and as far as he could see it were sand dunes stretching for miles with no end in sight. 'Where did the corridor with those stupid traps go', he wondered idly.
Helen: "A desert biome this time but which way should we go? "
Long Yu could not help by wonder and finally voiced out his thoughts loudly, "I do not understand at all."
Veronica:"What is it that you do not understand little brother?"
Long Yu:"The Nine Headed Dragon School, should be a powerful school which perished but how does this entire stuff works shouldn't it be destroyed also?"
Ryofu hummed as she replied, "Well to be frank no one knows the whole truth, but the Sect Leader of the school angered some one very powerful, who was powerful enough to just faze through all the arrays of the school and vaporized everyone who was member of the school, the most horrifying part is that the clothes their stuff remained intact and untouched but the people were all turned to ash, even those who were outside of the school was hunted down and killed with no remorse, but it happened so long ago that no one knows the real truth everything is mere speculation, there are even theories suggesting that the school was actually followed the path of Devil while hiding behind the veil of Righteousness and the somehow managed to draw Heaven's and Dao's ire against them causing their demise. These are the most popular ones among many other theories."
Long Yu: "So which one do you prefer?"
Ryofu: "Of course the first one, doesn't it give you shivers thinking to be in presence of someone so strong and maybe one day reaching that level."
Long Yu idly wondered about Ryofu's way of thinking he really wished one day he could meet that person who destroyed the school in such a way. Far away a certain woman sneezed, 'hmmm maybe baby brother is talking about me, well since my job is finished I should go and see what he is up to in those trials, hmm maybe I should groom him to take my place and I will be glorious free from these morons and these tiresome duties, yes yes I will do such thing', as she started cackling loudly, drawing curious and concerned looks from her two other sisters. Meanwhile in a place far far away Long Yu aka Ryuu suddenly felt disturbance in his peaceful life, 'Why do I have a sudden urge to stay away from big sister Antariskh for a long long time.'
Time passed away but they could not find any exit and soon under the scorching sun and heat started taking its toll.
Ayesha collapsed first out of thirst, "Please no more I can take no more, water I need water."
Long Yu did not hesitate as he took out his flask, but only a couple of drops came out, then he tried for milk and orange juice but none came. "Sorry but seems I am out too."
Helen: "What do you mean you are out, that means we have no water to drink are going to die here in this place, no no I refuse to die." her mental state collapsing rapidly. She then pointed towards Ryofu and spoke out accusingly, "You it is because of you witch, you drank the most water because of you we are going to die and I refuse to die before you."
Veronica: "Calm down we should not fight amongst ourselves", only for her to dodge a palm strike from Koyuki, "You shut up and stay out, like being calm will grant us unlimited water, Helen is right it is both Ryofu and Ayesha's fault."
Ayesha: "Excuse me what did you say, care to repeat it harlot."
Long Yu when he heard the word, 'Unlimited', a distant memory rose in his mind, ' Antariskh attached a water bottle with extendable straw, "This bottle is special just send your Ki to it", Ryuu send his Ki suddenly it was filled with various information,
1) First Slot : Water (unlimited)….'
No way how can the water run dry by itself it is impossible something is not right, he quickly activated both 'Divine Eyes' and 'Buddha's Mind' skills of his and were shocked at what he saw they were never in a never inside a desert to begin with but were standing in a room with couple of Nightmare Devil with them, a 2nd rank Zifu Disciple ranked, Nightmare Devil managed to fool them but as it was weak it couldn't move as it used its illusion on them, so it tried to sow discord among them members have them fight each other to death or at the very least injure themselves to the point they won't be able to move then they would attack and devour them.
Long Yu blushed red in shame and embarrassment, the thought that he was fooled by such a weak enemy defeated hurt his pride more importantly it served to remind him an important lesson his masters taught him, 'even an immortal can fall at the hand of a mortal if given proper opportunity', as such he did not waste any time as he used his flying daggers to quickly attack the vitals and with a shriek the Nightmare Devils died. The women suddenly found themselves inside a room having their hands in each other's throat, but at the same time all tiredness, thirst, and hunger vanished completely. They turned to look and saw Long Yu picking some daggers from the corpses of a couple of Nightmare Devil. The women except Veronica blushed with embarrassment and shame at the thought of being rescued by a mere child.
Their attention was brought back to the sound of door opening.
As they left the room quietly Ryofu could not help but ask Long Yu,"How did you see through the illusion?"
Long Yu beckoned her to come near him as if he was trying to tell her some very big secret, Ryofu lowered her head bringing her ear near Long Yu while everyone had their ears strained trying to hear hit, only for Long Yu to shout out, "It is secret!!!!", everyone face faulted at that, Ryofu pounced at him shouting out in anger, "You despicable brat!!!!", as she tried to catch him in order to deliver righteous feminine fury, while the other laughed at the antics of the duo.
The group moved forward only to have their eyes widen as they came across a large room full of ...….....
