The Urban Dao Child.

Yang Dao sat there holding the phone next to his ear. He was numb as soon as the lady on the call told him about his identity. This storm came a little too suddenly. From the voice alone he was unsure of the lady's age. Then he thought to himself. Don't tell me they are all women? Nah, I am just fantasizing a bit too much.

Yang Dao put down the phone thinking about something but soon it rang again. The boy picked it up with slight listlessness. He spoke after he put the phone next to his ear, "Hello.."

Feng Yun spoke, "Young Master, this is a video call. Why are putting the phone next to your ear?"

Yang Dao snapped and raised the phone to his face. On the screen, a smiling Feng Yun was looking at him. He sighed and said, "Who asked someone to give me a surprise? Sister Yun these acts are not good for the heart okay."

Feng Yun chuckled, she replied, "I apologize for the shock you received Young Master, but she is just like that. I cannot help it."

Yang Dao sighed again, suddenly something came up in his mind, "Sister Yun, tell me all four of you are not girls, right?"

His sudden question surprised Feng Yun, although she did not know his reason she couldn't help but tease him a bit, "Why young master do you despise girls?" this woman even put up a coquettish expression on her face. If some big-shot was to see her this moment, they would probably smash their head against hard rock and kill themselves. 

Yang Dao shook his head and replied, "I don't mind girls, sister Yun. I just want to prepare myself in case they are all as good as you are because then I will be in a tough spot." his face had as 'if you know what I mean.' look.

Obviously, if you are being surrounded by four beautiful women how can you be neutral to them? If you are neutral, you don't like them enough, and if you are not then you are partial. So either you are a stone or a pervert or a hypocrite. Yang Dao didn't want to be either. 

Feng Yun started laughing loudly. Only after some minutes did she calm down, she said, "You don't have to worry about that young master, two of us are women and two are men. You will not be in trouble." 

Yang Doa was thrilled as he has just extracted a valuable piece of information. Feng Yun realized that she has passed on an important point of information. She snorted, "This is the last time you made me tell you anything in this regard, Young Master..."

Yang Dao interrupted her and said, "I know Sister Yun. It was not my intent to make you do that. I only asked you out of curiosity."

Feng Yun sighed helplessly, after all, she understood that it was not his fault but the second familiar's. She asked Yang Dao if the things with the equipment went smoothly. Yang Dao told her everything he had on his mind and then asked whether his direction of advancement was wrong. Feng Yun thought for a little and told him that she will assign two people from her office to come over and help him. The two people are good and their loyalty was higher than the rest. These two people were from the same orphanage as Feng Yun's.

Yang Dao did not need any more information as to what she told him was enough for him to trust the two guys. He asked if the agreement is settled with those big-shots. Feng Yun nodded and told him that things went well and the agreement is signed. Yang Dao nodded and after some casual gossip, the call disconnected. 

Yang Dao fell asleep quite fast. His biological clock rang him up. After some leisurely stretching, he walked inside the washroom to brush his teeth and wash his face. Today he decided to an early visit to the gym. It has been quite some time since he stopped training. 

After changing into a vest and sports lower, he put on his black sports shoes in the cloakroom. Found himself a hand towel and walked out. He went to the kitchen and picked up a bottle of water. He was about to exit the house when he recalled professor Dew staying with him. He picked up the intercom and called for the housekeeping to deliver two sets of nutritious breakfast.

He found a note and wrote 'Going to the gym. Be back later please receive the breakfast. Please give them the tip on the table as well. Thank you.' knowing the efficiency of the housekeeping team, they will bring the breakfast in 30 minutes or so. He stuck the note on the front door while putting the money on the table.

His meticulous actions were sure very good but the thing is he was an effing teenager. He walked out of the house, got inside the elevator came to the ground floor, and at the reception counter he asked the steward, "Excuse me, can you tell me where is the gym?"

The steward was surprised to encounter someone asking him such a question in the morning. He was up all night and then this? What kind of a resident doesn't know where is the gym in a residential complex? Yet he cannot afford to be grumpy, with a standard professional smile he provided Yang Dao with the directions. 

Yang Dao smiled back, thanked the man, and left the building. A lady receptionist walked up at the counter and told the man, "You are relieved, Rob."

Robert was the name of this person, "Thankfully. Still a bit late though, seems like I was fated to encounter a troll." his tone was pitiful. The woman asked, "What troll?"

Robert explained to her the whole event, then the lady said in a regretful tone, "I missed the chance to see Young Master." she sighed and then glared at Robert as she lowered her voice, "Be careful about what you spout, okay? That person wasn't a troll. He is the younger brother of President Feng, the builder of this whole complex, the owner of the Phoenix group. He started living in the top penthouse not long ago. That is why he asked you about the gym. Humph, praise the luck that no one heard you just now or you might be looking for another job." this time her tone was particularly sharp. 

Such was Yang Dao's charm. Robert had a pale face. He was secretly happy to keep his temper in check or things would have been worse. After asking the lady to keep it a secret in exchange for a meal he left the counter. What no one noticed was that in his eyes a cold glint flashed. The man changed his clothes, and made a register entry, and left the residential complex. 

He boarded a cab and headed home. This cab was provided by the phoenix group to pick up and drop the employees as they start or finish their shifts. Robert chatted with the people in the cab normally as if there was nothing wrong with him. He reached home, locked the door, and entered the bedroom. It was a one-bedroom unit, closed the windows, closed the blinds. 

He picked up a book from the shelf in his bedroom and was about to open it when suddenly he was startled by a knock on the door. 

KNOCK KNOCK!!!

Robert calmed down, placed the book back in its place on the shelf as he spoke in a loud voice, "Who is it?"

A silky voice replied, "Hello, I am the new tenant downstairs. I work for the Phoenix group as well. I guess by the cab you came, so I thought about greeting you."

Robert sighed, he moved to the door and said, "I just came back from the shift. Would you mind..." he opened the door as he was speaking.

BANG! 

A gunshot sounded, Robert glanced at the girl in front of him with shocked eyes. The girl spoke to Robert, "Hello Robert a.k.a. Lab Rat of New Dawn." her words increased the shock in the man's eyes. He used his left fist and punched forward. 

The girl chuckled and with the little finger of her right hand parried the punch. She then punched forward and a sonic boom sounded. Fortunately, she had deployed a barrier to isolate the sound. Her fist was already in front of Robert. 

SPLAT!

The girl shook her head as she spoke, "Kaya, have this placed cleaned later. These fickle porcelain melons bursting with such a gentle touch. What is the use of creating them?" with these words she poked Robert's headless body with her finger, making it fall done with a dull thud. 

She walked over the corpse and searched the place. She found the book Robert was holding earlier, as she muttered, "Are they not trained? Why is it always so obvious? Losers." she spoke again, "Kaya, tell my sister about the threat. We go back to camp after this." then she left the place. 

Few steps away from where this girl was standing a figure walked out of the shadows. She sighed, "General why do you always act so recklessly. Anyway, let me call Madam, Feng Yun..."

This girl was Kaya, and the person she addressed as the general was the second familiar spirit. This time they were asked by Feng Yun to clean up the rats in the city. Rats were obviously the spies and informants of NEW DAWN and crypto nation.

These people could be anywhere doing anything from begging to a prominent CEO, their aim? Simple, kill every Elementalist they find. Feng Yun was a person they were suspicious about, after all, such a young tycoon was never seen. Yang Dao was targeted because of his connection with the phoenix.

So this time it was a close call. Or who knows what they will do to him?
