"The bastard clan of yours together with the Imperial clan has declared a bounty of a single Ultra Grade Immortal stone on each of our heads. Not only that there are rumours of the old monster of the Imperial clan is going to come out of his seclusion, and you know what it means."
"F****!F*****!..."
"Oi Oi I know its not ideal for us but stop cursing so loudly, what will you do if Ryuu hears you and learns them"
"Grrrrrr, I am so angry right now I don't know what to do if that old fart succeeds in advancing even I would not be able to shield him anymore. Ryuu is his direct descendent he would just sense my child's location in a jiffy".
Song Ya frowned, and then looked towards her sister and with an imploring look she said,
"Sister I don't want you to risk yourself anymore please, you have done enough as it is if they catch you snooping around...."
"HAHAHAHA, catch me a VOID SHADOW SERPENT, even peak Martial Emperor's cannot catch me, you worry too much dear have some faith in me, and you should know that hatch-ling is like a child to me I did rather die than anything happen to him."
"But.."
"No buts, let us go check that little troublemaker and see he hasn't got into any trouble "
"As you wish sister, as you wish"
"I heard the village head has taken a shine to you lately, whats this causing old-man to fall for your womanly charms those cultivators back home will be heartbroken".
Song Ya snorted, "I take a shine to that Houtian brat, only because he is in this backwater place like this, he thinks himself king of the world, a talentless mongrel already in his late seventies and still stuck in Houtian and dares to dream about me its like toad lusting after swan's flesh, if it would have not drawn too much attention I would have killed him already."
"Oi oi I heard one of that insect's brats is a core disciple in some sect"
"hmmph, what sect, even the strongest of that sect has yet to reach the Immortal level, I can easily erase such mongrels just with my presence alone but I do not want those fools from finding me".
"hehe, if you have too much trouble just give me a holler, accidents happen and I am hungry for some juicy morsel."
"HAHAHAHA, of course of course just don't catch something strange from them."
LATER THAT NIGHT
"Abomination,.... A bad omen,.... kill him, ......not my child,....."
"Ryuu Ryuu are you alright why are you crying what happen, child".
Ryuu opened his eyes to look at the worried face of his mother and aunt, he latched himself to his mother and started crying,
"Hush child mother is here, what happened who bullied you tell mommy will make him go away."
"Mom-mom, I saw sum people telling bad thinks abouh me, theu call me bad dewil and many thinks. Theu weve scawy, I saw mom tave me of them. Mom thew won't come here mom I am Scawed."
"hush child mom is here, your aunty is here I won't let anyone harm you"
"Child just tell me who was trying to scare you this super-strong aunty will beat them", Zhu Zhu said while flexing her muscles and making faces to cheer her nephew.
After a few minutes, Ryuu fell asleep once again.
"To think he remembers from that time, he was just a babe"
"Of course he is my child he is bound to be awesome", Song Ya said lovingly looking at the child.
"Have you thought what to say when he grows older, how will you explain that..." gulped on seeing a dangerous look on Song Ya's face, "Ryuu is my child and no one else certainly not my deadbeat family."
"O...ofcourse he is", Zhu Zhu stammered out.
"And as for his memories how much do you remember about your toddler years, Zhu Zhu?"
Zhu Zhu snorted at her question as she spoke, "Nothing, nothing at all."
Song Ya nodded at that with a soft smile as she spoke, "Exactly, the same will happen with Ryuu moreover we are always here trying to keep him from suffering any nightmares."
