Heavenly Dao Child - Chapter 502

Ryuu let out a yawn as he stretched his arms, the feeling of bones popping and muscles tensing and relaxing was refreshing for him, the last few days were hectic for him.

Just because the event had ended that did not mean that he was able to relax, there were much to do, from counting their profits, to check and make note of any unfortunate mistakes that should not be repeated again, but most importantly for Ryuu, it was to make a report detailing everything and sending one copy to next person normally in the chain of command and another to his eldest sister.

“Boss here is you tea.”

As the smell of tea entered Ryuu’s nose a small smile blossomed on his face as he spoke, “Thank you, Yu Wu.”

“Have you finished with your reports boss?”

Ryuu gave a nod as he spoke, “Yes, and I have already sent them.”

“I see.”

“So, what have you decided to do with the bonus, store it or withdraw it now.”

“I would like to store it as I will be able to receive a Deva crystal within little over three and half years time instead of normal four years.”

Ryuu nodded at that as he spoke, “I hope the rest of our employees have decided what they wish to do with their bonus.”

Yu Wu nodded as she spoke, “Yes boss, a few of them are left to submit their forms and by tomorrow you will know how many wish to receive their bonuses now and how many wish to store them .”

Ryuu sipped from his cup while another floated towards Yamamoto, as Ryuu spoke, “Fair enough.”

“So boss what will you do with yours?”

Ryuu sent a confused look towards Yu Wu as he spoke, “My what?”

“Your bonus boss, after all you should also receive bonus as well.”

Ryuu let out a brief chuckle as he spoke, “Oh about that I will receive none since I do not receive any payment as well.”

Yu Wu’s eyes widen as she spoke with disbelief, “You are working for free.”

Ryuu nodded as Yu Wu spoke again, “But why? I know you once told me that you are here to learn with Senior Yamamoto acting as your guide and advisor, but even trainees get paid for their work.”

Ryuu gained a look of disinterest as he spoke, “I see but I do not see why I need to get paid, I have no need for it.”

“But, what about resources for cultivation and since you are already at peak of your realm you would need to use Deva crystals so that you can advance easily by siphoning the energy from it, and advance faster.”

Ryuu looked at her as he spoke with a confused tone, “You would siphon energy of a Deva crystal but why?”

Yu Wu gawked at him for a moment before her jaws tighten as she spoke, “Boss I find your joke a bit distasteful.”

As Ryuu sent a confused look towards as Yamamoto spoke with a chuckle of his own, “Junior Yu Wu there is no need to take offence about what Prince had said, and as his family is very well off as such he never had to resort to such methods nor does he need to earn to provide himself.”

“I see.”

Ryuu gave a sheepish smile as he spoke, “Sorry if I offended you, because of my upbringing I might miss something that was common sense to others.”

As he spoke Ryuu inwardly wanted to kick himself, for a brief moment he had forgotten that their ‘currency’ had other purposes for cultivators instead of only being used to buy stuff, may it was because he never used one like that but he still scolded himself for his thoughtlessness.

Yu Wu blushed slightly as she quickly waved off of Ryuu’s words as she replied back, “There is no need to apologize boss.”

With that Yu Wu left while Ryuu could not help but let out a sigh as he knew that by the end of the day even the lowliest of janitorial staff would know about the latest gossip regarding him.

“Advisor Yamamoto, have you ever used similar tactics to advance your cultivation?”

Yamamoto frowned as he spoke, “I do not recall using such methods to advance my cultivation, they provide a good short boost but in the long run it is a waste.”

Ryuu gave a nod as he spoke, “So true they can use that to invest on other things like medicines, weapons, talisman and many other necessary items.”

As Yamamoto nodded in acknowledgement Ryuu spoke with a frown, “Advisor, when Yu Wu pointed out about money I realized something.”

“What is it Your Highness?”

“I have good number of ‘Peak Grade Deva Crystals’ and a few ‘Yin Stones’, if I want to buy something I doubt anyone would be able to give me any change here.”

“Now that you mention it I am of similar, no I am in even worst situation than you since I do not even have something as low as a Yin Stone.”

Ryuu frowned as he spoke, “This is troubling.”

“Indeed so, but do you have any appointment with a Celestial?”

Ryuu frowned as he spoke, “Not that I know of, Yu Wu would have told me about it, in fact I have a meeting with a Celestial day after tomorrow.”

As Ryuu spoke Yu Wu dashed into the room as she began to speak with a frightened look on her face, “Boss, the sector head has arrived, and he looks incredibly furious.”

Ryuu frowned as he discretely glanced towards Yamamoto who sent a telepathic message to him, ‘In normal scenario he should be your boss, though I wonder why he should be angry with you.’

Ryuu shrugged as he spoke, “Yu Wu, please escort him here and then you may leave.”

Yu Wu did not even properly leave the room when a pained cry came to Ryuu’s eyes, a voice that he was rather familiar with as it was from none other than Yu Wu.

Ryuu did not even have to get up from his chair as a black-haired, hook-nosed person rushed into the room with immense anger on his face.

“You dare insult my good brother’s family, you idiotic dog shit you will come with me and know tow in front of them and beg for mercy, and then I might not cripple you.”

Ryuu raised one of his elegant eyebrows as he spoke, “Do you even know what crime they did?”

“Shut up, you impudent mongrel, I do not care now will you obey like a good little dog that you are or will have to beat you to death.”

“You harmed my deputy.”

“Shut the f.u.c.k up that whore did not stop you from insulting them she should be lucky I did not kill her on the spot, and you how dare you insult I Chen Jian’s good brothers in front of him.”

“Apologize.”

At Ryuu’s calm yet authoritative words Chen Jian was flummoxed as he could not help but ask out loud, “What?”

“I said apologize to my deputy and I might leave you in one piece.”

Chen Jian’s nostril flared as he spoke with righteous anger, “You filth you dare insinuate that I, Chen Jian a Third rank Celestial would lower my head to a Mystic Immortal trash, you have tried my patients, now I deem you as traitor to Shangri-la and I am now going to cripple you.”

With that, he sent a palm attack with an unholy reddish colour light towards Ryuu only for his attack to pass through Ryuu demolishing the chair that was once occupied by Ryuu.

To Chen Jian, it looked as if Ryuu was a mirage that disappeared as soon as he approached him, only for him to be paralyzed as Ryuu’s voice came from his side.

“Advisor Yamamoto, this esteemed Daoist’s actions don’t you think was an extremely treasonous?”

“Yes, you are right Your Highness he is supporting someone who was banned from Shangri-La, banned because they were disruptive, the member of their family tried to steal from us, then their declaration was akin to declaring war on us, so yes I believe this filth’s action extremely treasonous, since he also attacked those under him without a care.”

“Hmm I see, I see.”

Before Chen Jian could react an intense pain erupted from his right hand, and as he turned towards his right side he found Ryuu looking at his severed hand nonchalantly which was held with his right arm in Ryuu’s hands, seeing the sight he quickly pressed his hand to stifle the bleeding as he snarled out, “How dare you attack an employee of Shangri-la?”

“So how much did that Ji Dog shit pay you to whore yourself out to them.”, Ryuu stopped for a moment before he looked towards Chen, who suddenly felt his skull go numb seeing the mismatch eyes looking at him boring into his soul, eyes that suddenly changed shape to becoming cross-shaped as a sudden realization sunk in him.

‘I should not have provoked him.’

He did not have time to react as Ryuu was immediately upon him, swinging his arm like a club so hard that Chen Jian fell on the ground forming a small crater on the floor as a cry of pain erupted from him, while his hand turned into a blood mist.

“I think it is fitting for you to lose your hand for raising it against my deputy.”, as Ryuu spoke his spear suddenly appeared in his hand as stabbed it in his opponent’s Dantian crippling him while he spoke in a mock chiding manner, “Anh ah anh, you should not have tried to move, now what to do with you.”

“My Prince I might have a suggestion.”

“What is it advisor Yamamoto?”

“Simple Your Highness, if you were to take him into custody then its owner might throw tantrum about takings his property without notifying him as such you should sent their property back to them with a few upgrades.”

Ryuu titled his head as he spoke with a curious look on his face, “What ideas do you have advisor?”

As Yamamoto and Ryuu were discussing the next course of action Chen Jian finally lost his consciousness due to shock from the pain from getting his dantian destroyed as well as losing his blood.
