57 I just love helping others

Meanwhile back in Vance clan, it had been more than 2 years since they had tried to bring 'Feng' and Xiao Xiao back home but unfortunately they failed miserably. They do not know how they are doing and in what condition they are all they knew that Xiao Xiao and her nephew Feng were injured nothing more noting less. Upon returning empty handed the first thing Salazar did was use one of the clan treasure 'Life tree tablet', which acts the family tree for the main branch of the Vance clan or in other words displays the family or the descendants of the currentPatriarch starting from the founder of the clan.

The tablet was actually a gigantic wall which was placed on an inner most area of the clan compound. The only person who could manipulate it was the current Clan head not even the previous one was allowed, Salazar did not waste any time as he used the tablet and added a new name the name of the third child of Sabine and Fang, an innocent child named Feng whom the persecuted because of their ignorance, his name showed in up on the tree, but unlike before it took him some time as the child was missing and he somehow with great difficulty added the name using the essence of his parents as medium.

He sighed in relief seeing both the names of Xiao Xiao and Feng still glowing meaning they are alive. Two whole years passed since then both the Xia and Vance Clan had spend a huge amount of resources and manpower to find them but to no avail, even the mighty pillar of Xia Dynasty Xia Yujie was stumped no matter how much he tried he could not locate his great grandchild as if he had simply vanished, it made Salazar's heartache thinking of his son and daughter-in-law they were running themselves ragged even a tiniest rumor would made them chase after them trying to find their child and Xiao Xiao to beg for their forgiveness to bring them back home. 'Child wherever you are I hope you are safe with your nephew, I hope to see you again one day maybe you both will be able to forgive us for our sins for all pain we caused you.', as a stray tear appeared on his eyes.

Meanwhile the long lost ostracized child of Vance Clan, Feng aka Ryuu aka Long Yu along with his temporary teammates, were standing in front of a long corridor, on both sides of corridor it was filled with delicious exotic spirit foods, various extremely rare and expensive medicinal pills making everyone drool, but Long Yu quickly wiped out his drool as he knew from personal experience how dangerous the spirit food can be, because unlike any normal food, spirit foods are also called 'food for cultivators', because they are usually reach in Ki, for any cultivator they are highly enticing as they work mostly like medicinal pills to a lesser effect but it has a serious flaw, a person should not consume spirit food made out of ingredients which were more than two ranks above them, Long Yu learned it first hand when he consumed one by mistake he was only a 5th rank Xiantian yet he consumed 1st rank Zifu Disciple ranked spirit food, and within an hour he went down with high fever, indigestion, and not to forget stomach ache, his teacher healed him but those agonizing moments were worst he had suffered in his life he was in no way going to suffer the same fate, he idly noticed that those food items were a couple of realms above their strength a shiver went down and he felt pity for the poor chap who ate it.

Long Yu quickly grabbed Veronica's hand as he dragged her away, "Let us go we have yet to finish the challenge, we cannot waste time here."

This brought the others attention towards him, they themselves were warned by their seniors how dangerous these kind of traps were and yet they could not completely ignore the allure of such trap the swallowed their spit as the moved forward painful.

Medicinal Pills were piled up as a small hill comprising of various kinds of pills, the pills were enticing but no one even Long Yu who had more knowledge of pills failed to properly identify them. Another trap they painfully ignored and passed by.

The next however was different in front of them were exotic looking men and women dressed scantily and provocatively as they tried to entice them with lust as they moved their bodies in alluring manner, the women had difficult time passing by as their cheeks blushed their hearts pounded their eyes started to get clouded with lust as their bodies heated up and their clothes felt tighter they stepped forward to be embraced, to be cared for to be loved they were slowly consumed with lust feeling completely aroused at the sight before them, but they were out of their trance when they heard a small sob as they noticed Long Yu with tear streaming down his eyes, as a distant memory rose up in his mind,

' Xiao Xiao: "Please Ryuu eat up, finish your food.", as she tried to feed Ryuu with a spoon.

A much younger Ryuu pouted at her as he blew a raspberry at her, "I do not want to eat veggies, they are yucky."

Xiao Xiao put a face of pure anger and spoke with a scolding tone, "Ryuu You Will Eat Your Veggies.", Ryuu had tears in his eyes his momma was angry at him and had scolded him.

Xiao Xiao, "Ryuu, do you thing I would let you eat something bad, no my baby I love you too much I would never harm you, but you veggies are good for your health didn't you say you want to be a hero like in those stories, well if you do not eat you will never grow strong."

Ryuu looked towards the spoon full with vegetable, he moved his head forward as he eat the veggies his face looked as if he was suffering from torture making his mother almost feel sorry to the point to never feed him any vegetables."

Zhu Zhu: "Ryuu you do not know how good your life is, there are children younger than you who would gladly give their life to the devil for even a single piece of what you are eating. You should consider yourself lucky and grateful."

Ryuu was stunned at hearing that, it cannot be true right it cannot be true his aunt was just trying to scare him. "You are just lying Aunty, why would someone want to live in such conditions?"

Zhu Zhu gave a sad smile before answering, "There many reasons child many when you grow older you will understand but now you are too young for such thing.", Ryuu pouted cutely at her, Zhu Zhu who just tousled his hair.

Ryuu scrunched up his face as he asked another question to his aunt, "Aunty how do you recognize them."

Zhu Zhu hummed in thought as she replied, "Well ...….." '

Many years later Long Yu went on through the mental check list, as he tried to remember everything,

1) Lack of clothes.

2) Raising their hands as if asking no begging for something.

3) Unable to move due to lack of energy

He tried to remember the other points but he could not remember, 'well it must not be important if I could not remember, but I am a good boy I promised to mom and his aunt he would help those unfortunate people. He quickly wiped out his tears as his eyes shone with determination, he quickly searched his backpack which had almost a year worth of dry food in them and some cooked meet which had been made recently by Tina. He took out as much as possible as he ran towards those males and females as gave some food on their outstretched hands.He kept a small portion of dry food enough to sustain him during his stay in the ruins. He did a very good deed today his mommy would be proud after all 'Ryuu is good boy', he blushed hard before he tried hard to hide from as he felt shy when he found all those people looking at him with dumbfounded confused look on their face.

The exotic male and women were puppets who with help of arrays still functioned and their sole function was to entice any cultivator that walked this way having been programmed to do so in such a way that they behaved and acted like any real person, but they were never were programmed to react as such an event thus an error occurred in their system causing them to stare at Ryuu with soulless eyes causing him to creep out before a thought crossed his mind, 'this poor people it seems nobody ever helped them thus they are acting like that, oh what cruel world', he gave a heavy sigh as he went and grabbed the hands of the closest women standing next to him as his mind was occupied he di not notice then in his haste he had grabbed Kyouki and Ryofu's hands. the poor women who were aroused when grabbed by Long Yu felt as if a lightning surged through them and being forced to run is such a condition as Long Yu dragged them hurriedly through the corridor towards the next room while their teammates raced after them, while a feeling of peace happiness and self satisfaction rose in his big heart, 'It feels great helping someone, and it seems that I just love helping others'.

Meanwhile back in Ayindril, it was chaos nothing more nothing less, Antariskh was literally rolling on the ground laughing her hearts out same could be said for her other sisters, Xiao Xiao was having trouble breathing after laughing so hard, even Ryuu's masters were not spared including the ever serious and stoic Nuwa who had tears appearing on her eyes from laughing hard.

Maheswara somehow managed to wheezed out, "The brat is too innocent and naïve, but that makes him adorable,"

Veena :"So true to think he confused those seductress as beggars, hilarious truly hilarious hahahahaha."

Shamiran: "As hilarious it may seem we have to teach him, or else my adorable baby brother may get taken advantaged by nefarious person."

Sylvana: "So true but let him be a child little longer, let him see the world with his rose tinted eyes a little bit, even if he has glimpsed the cruelty of our world, I would love to have him maintain his innocence a little longer isn't that right Xiao Xiao."

Xiao Xiao smiled and nodded, "So true sister so true."
