The Urban Dao Child.

Yang Dao asked Jill to wait. This surprised the crowd. The boy said, "His blow was poisonous, we need him to stay alive till it is cured." 

His body was losing strength to even stand up as he spoke. Yue Yun appeared beside him and she held him in her embrace. She gazed at Madam Yue and said, "He is burning up." 

The poison had started to infiltrate his body as soon as it had come in contact with his body. Yue Yun pressed a few acupoints on Yang Dao's body. She sealed the blood circulation in the injured part of his body to prevent the poison to spread. Jill asked the man in her grip, "Where is the antidote?"

The man shivered and replied, "This poison was just produced, the antidote is yet to be procured." 

Jill raised her eyebrow and tightened her grip around the neck of the steward, making the face of the guy turn blue. Madam Yue said, "Let us take him back. The apothecary will be able to solve it." 

Yue Yun carried the dizzy boy in her arms and followed Madam Yue, who led the way. While Jill held onto the neck of the assaulted. She hated these sneaky people. She dragged the man on the ground after sealing his cultivation and the process was as painful as a normal human can imagine. 

The crowd let out a sigh, someone said, "To think that the fight for the family rule has grown to the point where Yue Jiren would ask his subordinates to attack a child as soon as he comes over. Shameful." 

A lot of people nodded in agreement. A few people, among the crowd, shook their heads as they did not agree and accused Yang Dao of enraging the steward. The people countered by saying that these people were cowards, would they have stood silent hearing their parents getting insulted. 

The crowd dispersed but the majority happened to be siding with Yang Dao. The boy had played a gamble here, which he won with some cost to pay. If the boy was so calculative then the other side was not resting under the sun. Yue Jiren had sent out a few more pawns to monitor the situation. 

Two people from the crowd broke away and came to follow each other slowly. The one ahead said, "Did you see the way he neutralized Snake?" 

The other person nodded and said, "That kid is not simple. His reactions and words were all carefully selected. He was deliberately sending us a threat vibe." 

The man in the front nodded, he said, "What do you think will be his next move?" 

The latter person shrugged, "He made a move, now it is our turn." 

The two people then made their way to a luxurious tavern. This was their base of operation. 

...

Meanwhile, Jenny(Madam Yue) had brought the few people to the main mansion of the family. The people did not pay attention to the guards and the lower level staff paying salutes to them. The mansion was like a victorian castle, surrounded by a green garden and high stone walls. 

Jenny said in a sonorous voice, "Get me the apothecary, NOW." 

Her temper was feared by everyone, the maid standing outside the room suddenly picked up a jade talisman and crushed it. This communication jade was a method to call upon the apothecary. As soon as the jade was crushed, an old man appeared out of nowhere. 

The man had closed eyes and his beard was reaching the floor. He bowed his head and said, "I have seen the mistress. Is there anything I am needed for?" 

Jenny said, "My grandson is infected by poison, heal him." 

Her tone left was commanding, everyone became aware that the situation was not simple. The old man nodded and walked over to Yue Yun. He raised his hand and cast a thin layer of spirit thread from his fingers. The thread wrapped around Yang Dao's wrist. The old man took a few seconds and said, "The poison is made from Willow Widow Spider and ruby-crowned viper's poison. We will be needing the galls of these creatures or amputating the hand before the poison spreads to the rest of the body. I apologize these are the only treatments available unless we have some holy detoxification herb." 

Jenny nodded and said, "Yue Yun, take him to the infirmary, Jill you are to guard him, do not move away for even a second." 

With that said, Jenny walked away from the spot and the rest of the people began to complete the tasks assigned to them. Yang Dao was lying on a bed with his eyes closed, his body was shivering and his complexion was pale. Yue Yun sat beside him, putting up cloth on his head dripped with cold water. 

Jill stood at the side and sighed, "Madam Yun, what was he thinking when he did that? Why did he hold back?" 

Yue Yun smiled and said, "He hates being looked down upon. He always does things for a reason. Do not worry, things will fall into place." 

...

In the Yue Family mansion, there was a big hall. This hall was filled with a lot of chairs, donned by the people. They were all talking at the moment. The tension in the room was the indication that they were talking over a serious topic. 

Suddenly, the heavy doors of the meeting hall were slammed open. A loud bang sounded and the people became all turned their heads towards the entrance. They only saw a streaking flash and Yue Jiren let out a wail. 

When the people regained focus again, they saw Jenny holding Yue Jiren from his neck like a slaughtered chicken. Someone shouted, "Misteress Jenny, what are you doing?" 

Jenny did not bother and said, "Yue Jiren, you are not the master of the family, yet. Do not think that you will let your dogs run feral in our lands and we will just let that happen. Also, you scheming snake, stop wailing like an insect being stepped over." 

With that said she flung the guy away like a bag of scum he was. She looked at the highest chair, and said, "A steward under Yue Jiren's command attacked our grandson with poison hand stab. You need to make a call."

The man on the highest chair was her husband. He had always been laid back. That was also the reason that Yue Jiren was forcing him to this level. This man was called, Yue Lei Wang. The reason behind his laid-back attitude was the absence of his treasure, his daughter, Yue Ling. The man had turned faces with his daughter to keep the family together. 

Suddenly, today he sensed the same affection inside his wife that she had once showered on their daughter. His dim eyes became sharp. He asked in a deep voice, "What happened?" 

Jenny recounted every single detail of what had taken place. Yue Jiren had already stood up and did not react to his face. This man had subtle features as if a delicately handmade piece of carving. However, his eyes were that of a beast, radiating an ice-cold gaze. He did not interpret and kept on listening, his confidence came from the laid-back attitude of his uncle, Yue Lei Wang. 

Even when he heard all this, the man did not waver or show any signs of acting upon it. Yue Jiren said, "The steward shall be killed according to the family laws. The medicine must be sought out as to not hurt my nephew's future." 

Yue Lei Wang said, "The steward, who was involved in the attack will be dealt with the family law. As for the medicine procurement. Open the family treasury. Get them to detox the child as soon as possible." 

With that said, he stood up from his chair, and unlike in the past, his back was not dropped nor was his shoulder slacked. He stood in front of the people like a spear. His dominant aura seemed to have woken up from a big sleep. The people inside the hall were all surprised, while some had a big smile on their face, some had silent admiration in their eyes. On the other side, some existed to hate him as he undermined their interests. 

Yue Jiren was also surprised, but he said, "This is not feasible, after all the child is not our family." 

A few people nodded, but Yue Lei Wang countered as he said, "As the leader of the family, your relationship with me is that of a nephew. Are you my family?" 

Yue Jiren nodded and the old man nodded and continued, "Your relationship with Yang Dao is that of a nephew as well. Why is he not family?" 

Yue Jiren had understood what was going on as soon as the old man mentioned the relationships. He wanted to cut his tongue off. The thing was that he had lost his calm when Jenny attacked him in front of so many people. His realm was one minor level lower than her, and Yue Lei Wang was one major realm ahead of him. 

He could only clench his fists as he heard the hidden threat in the voice of his uncle. He could be abandoned by them.. This threat originated from Yang Dao, this made him put the child higher on his kill list.
