The Heavenly Dao System-Chapter 6: Dragon Cleansing Pool

When Ye Ming realized just how spoiled he was in his actual self, he couldn't fathom his past self-decision.

Why in the hell would he want to experience life and give himself the worst background ever?

No connection, no background, and no money.

What kind of life was that?

"Ugh, I am so done with my past self." Ye Ming facepalmed.

"Past self?" Ye Qing Lei became confused by his uttering and wondered if there was still some unknown residual left on his soul during the transfer.

"Let mother take a look." She suggested but proceeded with the inspection anyway.

It was her son— her only son, so how could she possibly afford to be carefree again?

After thorough scanning, Ye Qing Lei confirmed everything was fine with Ye Ming, and she did it at least 5 times, going as far as unleashing her unique technique to eliminate any possible impurities.

"Everything seems fine." She knitted her brows and placed her slender hand on his forehead. "Is your memory or mind still not functioning properly?"

"No, it's functioning properly." Ye Ming gently brushed aside her hand and explained, "It's just that I realized how retarded my decision was to detach my spiritual sea consciousness and experience trash life."

"Don't say it like that." She gently held his hands and put on a solemn expression. "My son is a genius and will always be correct. Just that, don't you ever pull another stunt like this and make your mother sad. For 10,000 years, I have lost my composure and constantly lashed out because of your disappearance."

"I see..." Nodding, Ye Ming was trying to pacify her but then paused himself.

'Wait a second.' His eyes widened in shock. 'How many years did she say?'

He coughed a few times, turned to her, and asked nervously, "How long did you say you lost your composure for?"

"10,000 years." She responded with a straight face. It was so straight that it appeared as if 10,000 years was 1 day to her.

"Okay, got it. Can you leave now so I can start the cleansing crap?" Ye Ming requested, clearly no longer wishing to dabble too much in this conversation.

There were too many surprising elements, and just because he regained his memory, didn't mean he understood it all.

What he experienced was the equivalent of absorbing all knowledge of a textbook, but as to how to apply the knowledge. That remained a mystery.

"Have it your way then." Ye Qing Lei softly sighed and excused herself, along with the other maids. Only Qing Lan remained with Ye Ming in the cleansing pool.

When Ye Qing Lei came out of the pool, she was quickly greeted by Ye Xuan, who had a fawningly affectionate look.

"Wife, you've finally come out of your seclusion. We haven't met or talked for a long time already." He clasped his hands and slowly tried to approach her, only to be met with an invisible wall of pressure.

Naturally, such an invisible wall of pressure was nothing in his eyes, but he still pretended and dared not intrude further.

So what if he was the most powerful man ever?

In front of his wife, he didn't even dare to lift a finger.

After all, it was his wife who had gone through all the difficulty and stayed with him no matter how bottom of the barrel he was.

"Don't call me wife!" Ye Qing Lei spat out.

"The nerve of you to attempt to kill our son. You better scram to your room and think of a way to earn our son's forgiveness. If he doesn't forgive you, then you shouldn't even bother looking for me." She continued.

Having remained in closed-door seclusion for myriad years to avoid the pain of losing her son. The news she received from her subordinates about her son had finally returned, overwhelmed her. Yet not even a minute later, she received news that her son nearly got killed by the aura of Ye Xuan.

How could she not be infuriated?

"I-It was an accident, wife." Ye Xuan stutteringly said. His tone was filled with panic. He wanted to clarify his action.

Alas, Ye Qing Lei's subordinates promptly blocked his path while she continued to fly away.

"Apologies Master Ye Xuan. We are only following orders." The subordinates who blocked him then said apologetically.

Glancing at these subordinates, Ye Xuan wondered if he could disguise himself as one of them to enter her chamber. However, he quickly shook away his thoughts.

Disguise and illusions were nothing but child play in front of her. He would be caught the second he stepped foot in her boundary.

'Damn it, when did a father need to appease his son?' Ye Xuan clicked his tongue, his eyes staring at the pool from afar.

Ye Qing Lei's words were equivalent to the decree of his life. Whatever she said, it could only be fulfilled and not be denied or delayed.

"Isn't it just to earn his forgiveness? Fine, I'll give him my weapon that he wanted for it so badly in the past." Ye Xuan muttered. His favorite weapon when compared to his wife was nothing. Anything could be sacrificed.

"Anyway, you remain here and notify me when my son finishes his cleansing." He then commanded the subordinate and vanished from the scene. The cleansing period would take forever anyway, so rather than waiting idly, he might as well cook up some plan to pacify his wife.

Meanwhile, back inside the Dragon Cleansing Pool, Ye Ming had already stripped his clothes completely, leaving only his boxers.

Behind him was Qing Lan, who carefully placed his clothes on top of a seemingly antique clothes rack resembling the ones used in a dynasty.

"So Qing Lan, does the cleansing hurt?" Ye Ming questioned, his eyes staring at the bubbling liquid that indicated it was quite hot.

"It usually does because it's removing any impurities residual in your body, as well as improving your Dao bones and muscles." Qing Lan replied.

"I see... then I'm not doing it." Ye Ming cleared his throat, put his clothes back on, and was ready to dip. His action startled Qing Lan on the spot.

"Wait, Young Master. You've been bedridden for a long time, so you need to soak in the pool to recover." She cried aloud and hurriedly chased after him.
