Yang Dao did not know for how long has he been unconscious. Over the past few days, he would be able to sense what was happening around him, but he could not interact with the people. His body was immobile.
Since he could not move at all, he decided not to try and let it recover. When the people outside provided him dicine his body was washed over with a comfortable wave of heat. When he opened his eyes, he found himself staring at a white ceiling. He did not move but sensed the people around him.
He could distinguish, Yue Yun from her breath. The other person was Steward Jill. She was standing outside the place so, he figured out that she is there to protect him. His body has been sweating for quite a few hours now and Yue Yun had cleaned it over and over to clean the poison off of him.
Yang Dao titled his head to the side and found that Yue Yun was sleeping while her head rested at the right corner of his bed. He felt warm in his heart. Then he slowly got up to sit. His left hand was injured in the attack earlier, so Yue Yun had sealed the acupoints, they seed to be unlocked now so that the dicine could take effect.
The boy tried to move the hand and sensed so light pain inside. He nodded and quietly got off the bed. However, as soon as his feet touched the floor, he heard a soft voice, "Dao, where are you sneaking off to?"
Yue Yun was not asleep, and even if she was, she could sense the movents of the people around her. She was that vigilant when she was taking care of this child. The boy turned around with a smile and said, "Change of clothes is needed, also, this place is not very colorful. Can we go to a better decoration? I need to heal, this gloominess is bad for my health."
The lady smiled at him and said, "Okay, co."
She stood up and the boy walked over to her side and held her hand. Ever since he was a child, if he was not up to so of his pranks, he would hold onto Yue Yun's hand when moving. The two people walked outside the infirmary and the first person to greet them was Steward Jill.
Steward Jill had silver-blonde hair, slender physique. She had a strong aura about herself. When she saw Yang Dao holding Yue Yun's hand she walked over and bowed her head to him. She said, "Congratulation on your recovery, Young Master."
Yang Dao smiled and replied, "Thank you for your wish and hard work, Sister Jill."
Jill was surprised by his address but when she wanted to refute she saw a sunny smile hanging on his face, however, his eyes were determined to say that if she dared to correct him, he will give her a command that she could not complete. Thus she only replied, "Thank you,"
The boy was then taken to his dwellings. It was a big room, with luxurious colorful, decorations. The furniture was also very elegant and extravagant. Yang Dao looked up at the ceiling and found a ball hanging from it. He asked, "Granny Yue, is that a moon pearl?"
Yue Yun nodded and said, "Yes."
Moon pearl was a stone that glowed with white light, enough to illuminate the room as big as this one. The room also had three big windows to allow wind and light to co in. Yang Dao sat down on a sofa and asked, "So, what now?"
Steward Jill said, "Master is eting with so elders of the family, he asked you to be present in the dining hall for the lunch today."
Yang Dao nodded and stood up from the sofa, and said, "I need to bath properly. Mum told to be on my best behavior."
Yue Yun said, "The bathroom is over there." as she pointed at a door.
Yang Dao nodded and walked inside the bathroom. In a corner there was a toilet section, a few steps ahead, was a big hot spring. The boy took off his clothes and got inside the pool. He sighed as the warm water touched his body. After a few seconds of relaxation, he rubbed his skin to wash off the accumulated dirt.
He mumbled, "This bath is not a simple one. To think it can have a progressive impact on one's cultivation."
He circulated the spirit energy inside his body as he was bathing. The spirit energy passed through his injured arm healing and cleaning it slowly. His wounds had healed completely, but the soreness in his arm will take a couple of days more to go away. He washed his body and then proceeded to his hair.
It took him half an hour to clean himself to the standards set by his mother. Then he dried himself with a towel while using the water manipulation, he left his hair slightly damp. He walked out with the towel draped around his waist.
Yue Yun has taken out an appropriate set of clothes for him. It was a white hanfu, clean and crisp. Yang Dao had his hair loose on his head, after he dressed in the hanfu, Yue Yun helped him with his hair, tied them up in a top knot, leaving a layer to cascade down his back.
She said, "Dao, it is ti."
Yang Dao gazed at himself in the mirror and nodded. The two people walked out of the room and found Steward Jill standing in front of them. The boy asked, "Sister Jill, do you not have to go to my grandmother's side?"
Jill replied to him, "She asked to escort you to the dining hall."
Yang Dao asked, "Is it that dangerous for in this place?"
Jill smiled but did not answer, she led the two people through the winding corridors of the mansion. Yue Yun had spent half her life in this place and was introducing Yang Dao to various aspects of the castle. After a few minutes, they reached the dining hall.. As soon as the trio entered, the soft murmurs ca to a stop.
