The Heavenly Dao System-Chapter 69: We’re Dead

As Ye Ling went into trance mode, her fingers didn’t stop playing the Guqin. In fact, they continued to hasten and soon, the sound was getting stronger.

"What the—" Noticing the change, Ye Ming turned his head and glanced at Ye Ling.

"Enlightenment? Seriously? Does she have some kind of plot armor as well?"

With a single glance, Ye Ming could tell she had stumbled across an enlightenment.

Enlightenment was not something a cultivator could get just because they wanted to. It could happen anywhere and everywhere, but at the same time, it could also never happen.

However, once they did received an enlightenment, it was almost a guarantee that whatever they were enlightened by would improved tremendously.

The only way it would be disrupted or failed was because someone interrupted them.

Looking at her expression and how the music was starting to change in tone, Ye Ming heaved a soft sigh.

"Lan," he called out softly.

In the blink of an eye, Qing Lan arrived next to him. With her cultivation realm, even if Ye Ming muttered very low, she could still hear him loud and clear.

"Lan at your service, Young Master." She bowed and waited for the command. She could sense that Ye Ling was undergoing an enlightenment phase, but she couldn’t be bothered about her.

In fact, she was somewhat dissatisfied with Ye Ling’s actions.

How could she receive enlightenment when she came here to serve her Young Master?

"Cast a concealment barrier for Ye Ling. Since she received an enlightenment, I supposed it could be fate." Ye Ming lightly commanded.

Fate was a funny thing.

He was technically at the end-game level, so fate was actually something he and his parents could control or manipulate.

However, his parents didn’t bother to control fate because it involved too much karma and they didn’t want to change things unrelated to them.

’Whatever, fate can’t control or determine me anyway. But it probably could affect those with me.’ Ye Ming yawned and felt exhausted from overthinking too much.

Sometime later, Qing Lan cast a concealment barrier around Ye Ling while secretly panicking inside.

’Could the Young Master have detected that some people had begun to make a move, so he ordered Ye Ling to be protected?’ She wondered silently.

A while ago, she received an order from Ye Qing Lei that she should be prepared soon.

Her vigilance had heightened up and she knew that with her Universal Overlord Realm, it wouldn’t be enough to deal with the current enemies.

They were people who was friends with the Master for a long time. Their cultivation realm were all around the Celestial Ancestral Realm, which was the 3rd rank in the Eternal Celestial Dimension world.

It was also 5 realms above her, so Qing Lan naturally couldn’t afford to be careless.

"Young Master, should we head inside?" Qing Lan suddenly suggested. They were currently on the deck. It would be hard for Ye Ming to not notice something was amiss when the enemies could easily be spotted.

"Are you suggesting it because enemies are coming for me and you wanted me to hide like a turtle?" Ye Ming inquired.

"Y-You knew?" Startled, Qing Lan gasped in disbelief.

"Oh, so it’s true."

"Eh?"

Amused, Ye Ming explained how he was just testing her earlier. After all, it was too peaceful and he doubted that would last long.

Dumbfounded, Qing Lan didn’t expect to be played like this. She felt aggrieved and ashamed of herself.

Ye Qing Lei wanted her to keep it a secret for as long as possible, but here she was, self-reporting herself without any resistance.

No, it could be said that her Young Master was way too cunning. He appeared frivolous and even sometimes impulsive, but he was secretly a deep scheming person too.

Just as she was about to open her mouth, the flying ship reached the boundary line and hyperteleported.

In the blink of an eye, they were outside the vast world, and Qing Lan’s eyes narrowed coldly.

As for Ye Ming, he was secretly amused by how many people were welcoming his exit.

In front of them were numerous cultivators with their body covered from top to bottom. They were all floating in space and exuded a powerful aura.

"Release the barrier and you may leave!" One of them suddenly demanded.

However, it was just a hoax because multiple cultivators had already begun their attack in trying to shatter the barrier.

The flying ship remained steady despite the onslaught of assault though.

"Are these the retards?" Ye Ming asked aloud in amusement. "You’re actually trying to target me just outside the world my parents created? If you’re not retards, then I don’t know who else can be?"

"We’re not retards. We have been planning this for many years."

"Lan, do you know who that yapper is?" Ye Ming ignored the enemy’s words and asked Qing Lan.

"He should be Duan Fulong," Qing Lan calmly responded. "Duan Fulong is a cultivator at the Celestial Ancestral Realm, and a friend of your father in the past."

"So it’s a former friend in the past." Realization dawned upon Ye Ming. He stood up, clasped his hands behind his back, and began to walk forward.

"Why bother covering yourself from top to bottom now that you’ve been identified? Or could it be your face is very hideous and could not afford to show it?" Ye Ming shouted loudly, his tone contained trace of provocation and insult.

Duan Fulong remained silent, his hands conjuring a powerful Qi.

"Eternal Qi." Qing Lan commented. She recognized the type of Qi and informed Ye Ming before he could even ask.

"Eternal Qi?" Ye Ming exclaimed in shock.

He then quickly hid behind Qing Lan and screamed, "I’m so scared. The Eternal Qi is going to do big damage. Lan, we’re dead."

Qing Lan: ...

Duan Fulong: ...

The two weren’t idiots and could tell that Ye Ming was acting.

Qing Lan was amused by the acting whereas Duan Fulong narrowed his eyes coldly.

He was still a Celestial Ancestral Realm cultivator after all. A mere junior dared to behave so outrageously and disrespectfully was irritating him.
