Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Chapter 408 - 408 | Heading Out Of The Rubble



It has been about fifteen minutes since Xiao Ming woke up and the party of four headed towards the outskirts of the city.

Ye Tian Yun was walking about at the front, while behind him were the quarreling love birds, Yuan Shuchun and Xiao Ming.

​​

And on Xiao Ming's shoulders was the unconscious Jun Xie.

For the last fifteen minutes, Xiao Ming was trying to ask for forgiveness and patch things up with Yuan Shuchun, but it didn't seem like he would get any good result in the near future.

After trying whatever he could, Xiao Ming had no other choice but to sigh and give up for some time.

Suddenly, he grunted and said, "How come Yuan Shuchun woke up this early, but this guy is still unconscious?"

Ye Tian Yun replied, "He was heavily injured on the chest and head."

"Oh?" Xiao Ming was surprised, "Will he be alright?"

Ye Tian Yun gave a light nod, "He should be.'

Then glancing at Yuan Shuchun, he asked, "How did you wake up? I thought it would take at least six to seven hours before any of you two woke up."

Yuan Shuchun replied, "I wasn't heavily hurt, even though I was closest to the explosion. It is mainly because of the defensive artifacts on me."

Ye Tian Yun nodded, "Yeah, Sword Saint Yuan would have definitely given you a lot of them."

Yuan Shuchun shook her head, "Not a lot of them, or else Xiao Ming wouldn't have almost killed me."

"Hey! I told you I am sorry. Can you stop bringing it up, please?" Xiao Ming made a teary expression at her, which she ignored.

After a moment of thought, Xiao Ming said, "I never knew my father-in-law is Sword Saint Yuan Xuming… sigh, I will have to work hard to impress him."

Yuan Shuchun rolled her eyes at his words.

With a mischievous smile, she said, "Well, my father is a Sword Saint, my uncle is the Emperor of Middle Heavens, and my cousin is the most talented cultivator of my generation. So, Xiao Ming, I don't think there's any hope left for you…."

Xiao Ming gulped and secretly glanced at Ye Tian Yun.

The cousin Yuan Shuchun was referring to was precisely Ye Tian Yun.

'This guy… is terrifying.'

He still remembered how helpless he was in front of him.

Even though it all turned out to be an illusion, everything still felt as if it was real and had actually happened.

'Peak Foundation Establishment Realm…'

Xiao Ming could only sigh when thinking about this.

Ye Tian Yun was more than a whole realm above him.

'And now even the Token Of Fate is gone… will I become one of the normal geniuses now?'

Xiao Ming sighed.

But he wasn't disheartened.

Token Of Fate was his only second priority.

The first was walking right beside him,

Yuan Shuchun.

He knew that it won't be easy for things to patch up no matter what he said or did now.

He had betrayed Yuan Shuchun's trust in him.

At first, he would have even steeled his heart and accepted the loss.

But how could he not feel anything when whenever he closed his eyes, only her teary face appeared, begging Ye Tian Yun to spare him.

'I wonder if that was real?'

Xiao Ming didn't dare to ask Yuan SHuchun or Ye Tian Yun to confirm.

He simply wanted to agree that it was true, and now, he would give up anything to be with this girl.

This was love.

And as Ye Tian Yun walked in front of them, he could also understand.

"Ye Tian Yun, have you ever been in love?" Suddenly, WAng Yao asked him.

Ye Tian Yun thought for a moment, and a faint silhouette of a maiden appeared in his mind.

But he immediately shook his head and denied it.

Wang Yao frowned, "Were you a cultivation maniac or what? You should have at least enjoyed your life."

Ye Tian Yun didn't respond.

So Wang Yao continued to poke him, "Ye Tian Yun, how was your relationship with the Eldest Miss of the Great Ling Clan? Didn't you say you both were engaged to each other?"

Ye Tian Yun frowned, 'Shut up, WAng Yao. Don't bring up this topic ever again.'

Wang Yao shrugged, 'I was just curious, dude. There's no need to hide anything between us.'

Ye Tian Yun didn't respond.

Out of all the things in the topic, this was the last topic he would like to talk about.

'Sigh…'

Letting out a sigh, he continued to walk.

Wang Yao frowned at his sigh, "Hm? I am sure you're reminiscing about the past. So tell me, Ye Tian Yun… why did you kill her? Hn?"

Ye Tian Yun frowned, "Shut the fuck up, Wang Yao. It's none of your business."

"Alright, alright, calm down." Wang Yao turned silent once again.

Just then, Ye Tian Yun came to a halt and looked at the frowned.

Yuan Shuchun and Xiao Ming also stopped quarreling when they noticed him.

"What happened, Brother-in-law?" Xiao Ming asked with a curious expression.

Ye Tian Yun frowned, "Someone is coming."

"Hm?" Yuan Shuchun became alert, "Should we hide?"

Ye Tian Yun gave a light nod, and all three of them ran inside a destroyed tavern.

Because there was still a considerable distance between him and the people coming towards them, Ye Tian Yun couldn't assess their strength.

However, he didn't wish to attract any attention from this situation. After all, they were the only survivors of the explosion. This fact was bound to create trouble for them if it got out.

Slowly, the three of them waited for the person to arrive.

"Should we attack if this is an enemy?" Xiao Ming asked.

Yuan Shuchun immediately shook her head, "No. We must keep an as low profile as possible. It would be best if no one notices us."

Ye Tian Yun inwardly nodded at her words.

At least there was someone else too with a brain among them.

Just then, he sensed the people coming towards them.

It was actually just a carriage.

But the aura from it was.. familiar.

Ye Tian Yun smiled when he identified who this was.
