The Heavenly Dao System-Chapter 46: Darts

Once the alchemist deal was approved, Ye Ling had a bitter face as she was dragged away from the Clan Hall.

Naturally, her father, Binghe also excused himself and decided to resign from his post as punishment. No matter what, it was still his negligence that caused Ye Ling to commit an offense.

Alas, Ye Xuan had already lost enough elders for today and refused his resignation. As if that wasn’t enough, Ye Xuan even threatened that if he left his duty, he would look for Ye Ling instead.

Ye Xuan’s imposing and somewhat furious demeanor today was quite a shocker to everyone.

However, they also understand that his behavior was mostly thanks to Ye Ming and his unpredictable nature.

"What a Clan Meeting we got..." Ye Xuan twitched the corner of his mouth as he leaned back on his chair.

"Wife, are you really going to indulge our son like this?" He gazed at her helplessly and asked softly.

"It’s better this way." Ye Qing Lei calmly responded. "I much rather have our son remain active and confident like this rather than being suppressed. Also, whose fault did you think it was for this to happen?"

Almost immediately, Ye Xuan nodded and raised his hands in surrender. Whenever this particular topic was discussed, he would always end up with the short end of the stick. There was no victory whatsoever for him.

He also blamed himself for pushing his son far too hard.

’Ugh, this is my karma.’ He sighed inwardly and enjoyed the celebratory atmosphere.

The atmosphere gradually lightened once Ye Ming no longer had the imposing demeanor and behaved no differently than the rest of the younger generation.

"Qing Lan, watch me throw this in the mark." Ye Ming held a dart in his hand, his eyes narrowed tightly. A second later, he threw the dart toward the dartboard.

Unfortunately, the dart went wide and completely missed the dartboard, and landed on a nearby wine cup.

The dart struck the cup with a sharp impact, sending a droplet sound echoing through the air. A large splash followed, with some liquid from the cup spilling onto the ground.

Qing Lan had to cover her mouth to suppress her laughter.

"Just laugh if you want to." Ye Ming scratched his head and clicked his tongue.

"Can’t believe the dart could go wide like that." He continued, feeling weird about the outcome. He was positive that the trajectory and angle of his throw were correct.

So how could the dart miss that terribly?

"Young Master, the dart is crafted with special materials to train one’s cultivation. You needed to inject your qi and infuse with the dart when throwing." Qing Lan picked up a dart on the side and explained.

She then infused some of her qi into the dart and threw it toward the dartboard.

Thud!

The dart landed perfectly in the bullseye!

Clap! Clap! Clap!

"Wow, we got a future Olympic dart thrower here." Ye Ming clapped his hands in amazement.

"Olympic?" Confused, Qing Lan didn’t understand the term.

"Ah, don’t worry about it. Just a term for sports that most countries participated in for glory." He waved his hands and brushed the matter aside. It was just a pity that darts weren’t considered an Olympic sport.

Well, dart certainty wasn’t an easy sport to master when precision and calmness were required.

Sometime later, Ye Ming adhered to Qing Lan’s advice and tried to infuse some of his soul power into the dart. After all, he had yet to officially train his qi.

CRACK!

In the blink of an eye, the dartboard cracked and split in half after failing to endure the infused soul power dart.

"..."

Speechless, Ye Ming’s eyes widened in disbelief.

’How strong is my soul power?’ Since he chose to experience everything like some new novelty by opting out from assimilating his memories, he didn’t quite understand the power of his soul.

However, he did believe the dartboard should be crafted with special materials to withstand qi and soul power.

Therefore, he was taken aback by how easily destructible the dartboard was.

"The dartboard is meant to sustain qi and not soul power." Qing Lan suddenly explained. "When the Young Master infused the dart with the soul power. The dart essentially became a deadly weapon to the dartboard."

"I see." Nodding, Ye Ming was kind of bored with the dart throwing anyway. Not to mention, he could sense that the crowd was somewhat wary of him now.

It was the equivalent of being the oddball out that caused the atmosphere to be gloomy. To simplify, it was as if you were partying happily with coworkers, only to be interrupted by your boss who joined the fun.

How could anyone enjoy their time when their boss was watching over them?

"I’m tired, Qing Lan. Create a portal for me to leave." Ye Ming commanded. He wasn’t interested in the celebration much. The whole point of the Clan Meeting was simply to announce his return. And he was certain that he did the job flawlessly.

Almost everyone should have received news by now of his return, especially regarding his ruthless persecution among his fellow clan mates.

It didn’t even matter if one was an elder or not. They were still persecuted and received their due punishment.

Qing Lan also understood that Ye Ming was feeling uncomfortable, so she readily opened a portal for them to leave.

Nobody even bothered to ask why they were leaving early.

The elders were afraid of earning his ire, and Ye Xuan was too mentally exhausted to care about anything anymore.

As for Ye Qing Lei, she merely finished her cup of tea and teleported away.

Ye Xuan noticed his wife left the scene, but there was nothing he could do. As the Clan Leader, it would be inappropriate for him to leave so early and not even converse with his fellow elders.

"Elder Ye Chang, can you come over here?" In the end, Ye Xuan called for Ye Chang and wished to seek after the list that he had given to Ye Ming.

He needed to be mentally prepared for the next time if Ye Ming were to ever suddenly call out another random name.
