"Ye Hao ye hao ye ha..." a lady shouted at the top of her lungs, from the tone of her voice she sounded damn angry, the drama continued, as she repeatedly shouted 'ye hao' name, no response came against her call further infuriating her.
On the street, passer buyer stopped whatever they were doing, and looked at the old man yao residence with great interest, the voice of the woman even louder as the street became quiet.
shattering noise of vase's smashing was heard from the backyard, along with the agonized cry of an old man.
"My... Garden..."
"my...plants..."
The old man had an aggrieved look on his face, as he looked toward where his garden(ex-garden) was, he reacted quickly rushing, upon reaching the garden he got on his knees and immediately sorted his plants from the rubble to prevent further damage, still some roots were damaged. He gently caressed the plants that were damaged, keeping them in his embrace, consoling them with a hug. The plants that he had nurtured for years were gone, it was disheartening, he had watched them grow from seedling to where they were now, he was like their father, their guardian. He failed, to protect them, he growled
"You damn brat... How detestable"
"This is how you repay me" he sounded angry, even more than the woman outside, he stood up, as he gently put down the damaged plants.
After hearing the chaotic noise of the vase's breaking, she made her way like the wind, avoiding all the obstruction blocking her way, she was quite familiar with the house, as she made way, she quickly reached the yard, where an old man in his 80's which should lay on his bad was playing sport with a young boy, the old man quickly caught the boy by his wrist and smacked him. The boy made a faint noise but didn't try escaping again.
She made her way as the old man was lecturing the young child, she gigled as she stood behind him "hehehehe"
It seemed to have sent a shock down his spine as he turned, his body shaking as he meet his mother eye, seeing a devilish smile on her lips.

Ye Hao knew he had messed up when he failed to climb the fence, he was quite desperate and stepped on the plant stand, how could he know that the stand was so weak and would fall.
It was the old man yao, who had suggested to escape through climbing through the fence, he shouldn't have listened to that old goat, !fuck now he seemed to be in trauma.
He had failed his escape, despite taking support he just couldn't cross the fence, as he was thinking, he saw the old man walking toward him. He quickly tried making his run seeing the old yao coming his way, he quickly crossed half the yard, he was quickly making his way out of here, when the old man yao caught up to him and stopped him.
"ahh..."
he screamed as old man yao smacked him hardly on the head, he held his head out, rubbing the spot where old man yao hit as the old man glared and started lecturing him.
"ye hao" a soft voice of his mother called him, which sent a shiver down his spine, he had forgotten about her as the old man chased him, he looked at her and saw a devilish smile on her face. she tightly stretched his ears making him suffer more pain than earlier when old man yao smacked him.
On one side there was old man yao, with his death glare and on the other side his... mother, the woman was quite scary whenever she was angry.

Ye Fe happily watched all drama happen, from the yard as he calmly sipped his tea. He saw his son, trying to make a sneaking escape from his mother, Through the common fence, apparently, the kid hit the vases while trying to cross the fence, 'silly' he thought with amusement, Life gets lot boring with just all day at the shop.
This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.
he blew the wind, as he sipped the tea, 'just the right temperature'. he watched with the whole ordeal with quite satisfaction.
The kid was too much of a slack off, spending all his day unproductively, sleep, food, going to old man yao house and getting dragged by his mother and beaten,
'That kid never learns does he' he sighed.
----
Apparently, the old man yao was quite angry and didn't let him off with a simple apology, he sighed, his mother offered he became a personal errand boy of the old man.
The old thing was not letting off the hook making him do doing odd jobs, that goblin-looking old man it has his fault,
"It was that old man idea in the first place, why was he the bad guy and take the blame"- the answer was simple, his mother was punishing him and that old geezer was playing along,
"old thing, I will make you pay" he cursed that the old man's crooked back become more crooked. His lips curled upward as he imagined an old man.

10 years ago,
A large number of cultivators unexpectantly filled 'Royhad' and its neighboring town, seeing a large number of cultivator gathering it was speculated that it was something grand was happening, a destiny changing treasure was there, nobody knows who spread the rumor's but the story of 'Heaven's Defying Treasure' being birthed was spread, somewhere on 'mount Tilo' cultivator from both large, small sect came, cultivator kept of increasing as the rumor got more popular and wilder than the initial rumor.
Approx 5 months later when people thought that there was no treasure, just nili-wili rumor, some took their leave, but one evening supernatural occurrences started happening, sending massive heaven-shaking shockwave in a periodic manner, the ripple got more powerful and their area of destruction spread from the point of origin. People from over 100 miles could see the sky change color to golden followed by a massive earth devastating earthquake, intent on destroying everything, maybe it was heaven's stoping the birth of 'heaven-defying treasure' but the whole 'mount Tilo' was destroyed from the impact.
Upon the arrival of this 'Heaven's Defying Treasure', a strong suction force emerged from 'mount Tilo' sucking dry all the spiritual energy through the area it passed by, the suction kept going coving more and more area as time passed, for a full day.
After seeing the awe-inspiring might of the treasure and heaven's anger, they wanted it more and more, as the atmosphere settled, cultivators present their went crazy, frenzy in greed wanting to own the treasure. In the battle, several hundred thousand died for the treasure.
The earth-shaking battle took place for half a month before a victor was crowned or ran away with it, nobody knew who that person was or maybe he had killed all those who eyed his treasure.
After the end of the event, all cultivators left, going their separate ways, as the saying goes 'animals die for food, men die for wealth', a major battle took place recorded in history as the Battle of [Fate of Heaven's Treasure]', most cultivators didn't even know what kind of treasure they had risked their lives for, it strong enough to shake the earth and split the mountain in half, a lot of cultivators were killed or injured in this.
A month after the battle of [Fate of Heaven's Treasure] old man Yao, came to the village to live and bought a house next to ours, at that time due to his injury he had a ghoulish complex, old man expression reeked of grief, sorrow. He is nothing like that now though, Maybe the goblin lost his family or lover, nah with his looks he couldn't have a lover right, some said he was a cultivator who was a critical injury during the war, seeing no hope for himself, wanted to simply spend rest of life peacefully.
People had different views showcasing myriad reactions when they heard this rumor, some had a normal reaction, there were people who got excited but they all were horrified no matter how small, living with a cultivator, they knew mortals were no match for cultivators and if he decided to harm them or took a liking to the woman of the town, doing as he please, toying with their life for fun, they were all vary.
Their worry was for nothing as they later came to know him, his personality was upright, he was a nice fellow you could talk and relate to, and the man gave a firm handshake to people he meet.
Making townsmen naturally like the guy and view him in good limelight. He lived an ordinary daily life, peacefully without causing trouble, even though the old man was harmless someone still reported their worries to the village administrator, Old man was inspected for a few months by cultivators of righteous sects.
The old guy was since then awkward and felt he was in quite the dilemma, knowing townsmen were unease around him.
But the problem got solved rather easily when he defeated the mountain fox and saved the ye hao from his demise.
Ye hao still remembered how heroic and the strong crooked old man looked, the moment was quite short, there was no dramatic fight to death. contrary to everyone's expectations,
He meets the charging wolf head-on, wolf after seeing his arrogance opened his jaw big and wide, showing his sharp canines to bite off his arm, for the man's arrogance, his teeth meet his impenetrable metallic hands, instead of the instant kill he expected, a sharp pain radiated from his canines, confusing him, by the time he realized something was wrong.
the old man grabbed him by his throat with his other hand and crushed it to smithereens.
