The Heavenly Dao System-Chapter 25: Take A Break

While Ye Zhongshan made up his mind to let Ye Ming roam wild, Ye Jiantao was concerned.

As a person who cultivated the sword, he believed a person should be calm and collected. At the same time, they must not act wildly, lest the sword would become unrecognizable.

With that mindset, Ye Jiantao was leaning toward Ye Chang's side. Nevertheless, he preferred not to openly say it, given that he was not in a position to correct Ye Ming.

Ye Zhongshan and Ye Jiantao may have opted to keep silent, but Ye Chang hadn't.

The conversation between the two continued, and with no one stopping them, it only became more heated.

"Are you really speaking such a tone to your elder?" Ye Chang exclaimed loudly in disbelief.

"Just what has happened to you? How could you change so much and even behave in such a manner?" He continued, clearly losing his mind at the drastic change of behavior.

In the past, Ye Ming was reserved, and polite, and made sure to keep up with etiquette. Aside from his poor cultivation base, everything he did was perfectly fitted to be the heir and the Young Master of the Ye Clan.

"I didn't change at all though." Ye Ming yawned and replied honestly.

Indeed, the past self was him, but the present him was the authentic one. He said it again and would continue to do so whenever people kept trying to compare him to his past self.

"This is not the behavior befitted of the Ye Clan's heir!" Finally, Ye Chang's face turned beet red, and shouted.

Instantly, the atmosphere turned awkward and silent.

Even Ye Jiantao and Ye Zhongshan twitched their brows slightly at the statement.

What Ye Chang had just uttered was equivalent to stating his intention to depose Ye Ming as the heir.

Although everyone in the room knew that Ye Chang didn't mean his words, it was hard for them to just let the matter go.

After all, if news of this were to spread and people began clamoring the same thing, then it would have been a catastrophe.

Amidst the silence, clapping noises began to echo around the room.

"Wow, as expected of the elder. Quickly talking about deposing me the moment I returned." Ye Ming clapped his hands and praised loudly.

"T-That was not my intention." Ye Chang stuttering replied, his face somewhat pale.

"What I meant was that the Young Master shouldn't behave wildly, lest it would demean your status." He hurriedly corrected, afraid of accidentally being implicated with the serious crime of treason.

"Nice save." In response, Ye Ming raised his hand and gave the latter a thumbs up.

"As expected of a senior. Knowing when to retreat and advance. Being accused of treason meant death, and you wouldn't have wanted to be killed because of an impulsive statement." He continued.

Instantly, Ye Chang found himself losing his balance.

Almost everyone in the office knew he never meant any malicious intent but was still forced to clarify. Yet not only did Ye Ming fail to acknowledge that, he even went as far as provoking him again.

It was truly a frustrating and infuriating event.

"The younger generation has surpassed the older generation." In the end, Ye Chang could only spat that out and attempted to return to his seat.

However, he didn't even get to sit down when his chair was shattered.

"You!" Infuriated, Ye Chang's eyes flared up. He turned around and was about to point at Ye Ming, only to notice the latter didn't even move.

"Huh?" Confused and startled, Ye Chang recalled that Ye Ming had yet to regain his cultivation base. Not to mention, he didn't even detect any residual attack emitting from him.

Instead, he sensed the residual came from Qing Lan.

"Why did you break my chair?" Ye Chang questioned solemnly. It would have been fine if the one who broke his chair was Ye Ming, but a maid?

How could he accept that?

Alas, Ye Chang didn't even get an answer when Ye Ming interrupted.

"Just shut up and find another chair." He rolled his eyes and beckoned for Qing Lan over to massage his shoulders.

"I signaled her to break your chair because I thought that sitting for too long might cloud your mind. But seeing how you can still react decently, I was wrong. You were just a little muddlehead from overworking."

"..."

Speechless, Ye Chang was rendered helpless.

"Clan Leader, is this how you educate your son?" Unable to do anything to Ye Ming, he resorted to calling Ye Xuan out.

"Or is this your intention to strip my position? If so, then just say it aloud. Don't use your son to humiliate me. I'll step down from my position if you want."

"Elder Ye Chang is thinking too much." Ye Xuan smiled bitterly and tried to pacify him. "How could I want you to step down when you have been managing the clan's affair very well?"

"Forget it. I don't want the position anymore." Exhausted, Ye Chang proposed his resignation. He already knew most of the clan members despised him because he always wanted to uphold etiquette and the clan's administration.

Back then, Ye Ming would constantly seek his advice on how to manage and control. He was satisfied that someone actually wished to learn sincerely and hence, he remained in his position.

Now that it appeared the Ye Ming of the past was gone, and even went as far as provoking him repeatedly.

The time was over. His position should be handed over to someone more suitable.

With Ye Chang proposing to resign, Ye Xuan was stunned.

He wanted to reprimand Ye Ming for causing such a mess, but Ye Qing Lei promptly stopped him.

"Stay put and let's see what our son wishes to do" Ye Qing Lei sent him a sound transmission.

Helpless, Ye Xuan could only begrudgingly adhere to her command.

As all eyes turned to Ye Ming, it became apparent that the decision was his.

With all the attention on him, Ye Ming smiled lightly. And to everyone's surprise, Ye Ming stood up and approached Ye Chang.

"Elder Ye Chang has really been suppressed for a long time." He calmly said.

"You've been shackled by your duty for too long. It's time to take a break and relax."
