Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

[Ye Tian Long. -2 Star Favourability: Does not wish to get acquainted with you and would prefer to maintain distance. Mainly influenced by his hate towards your father, any interaction you have with Ye Tian Long will worsen the situation.]

'Hmm…''

Ye Tian Yun lightly frowned at the screen and once again put his attention on Ye Tian Long.

He had already considered the scenario that the latter hated the main branch of the Great Ye Clan.

'Let's see if he can be saved.'

Ye Tian Yun nodded at Ye Tian Long and said, "Cousin Long, it's been years since we last met."

Ye Tian Long nodded.

Even though both were part of the main branch and were closely related, they had actually never met each other in their lifetime.

'But I can't just say this is our first meeting… that will only increase our hatred.'

"We have met before?" Ye Tian Long was stumped.

He couldn't recall ever meeting this famous cousin of his.

Ye Tian Yun, however, continued with his act, "Well, this is our first official meeting, but we have encountered each other quite a lot. Hmm… now that I think of it, I am pretty sure you must not have noticed me."

"What do you mean, Crown Prince?"

Ye Tian Yun shook his head and said, "No need to be so formal. You can just call me Cousin Yun."

"Cou-Cousin Yun…"

"Hm, good. Well, as I was saying earlier, we both have actually crossed paths with each other. It's just your attention was on something else."

"Really?" Ye Tian Long frowned, "Please help me recall our last meeting."

Ye Tian Yun lightly smiled, and then looking at the sides to confirm if they were out of other people's hearing range, he slowly whispered, "Great Xiao Clan."

Traces of shock flashed through Ye Tian Long's eye before returning to normal, "What about the Great Xiao Clan, Crown Prin- I mean, Cousin Yun."

Just now, he could have used Spirit Message but chose not to because that would also reveal to Ye Tian Long that the person in front of him had reached the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Upon hearing Ye Tian Long's response, Ye Tian Yun's smile receded.

He had expected these words.

"Cousin Long," Ye Tian Yun leaned forward and slowly whispered, "I want you to invite you to my palace for something."

"Hm?" Ye Tian Long frowned, "What for?"

Ye Tian Yun smiled, "I have something to give you. Just take it as our meeting gift."

Without saying anything else, Ye Tian Yun stood up and left the Second Floor, leaving behind a very confused Ye Tian Long.

…

Getting out of the Imperial Library, Ye Tian Yun didn't stop and headed straight to his palace.

'I wanted to test him, but on second thought, it's best if I let him be. There's no need to make the Great Xiao Clan alert for any reason.'

The Middle Heavens was home to many superpowers. Just like the Great Ye Clan and Great Ling Clan, there was the Great Xiao Clan.

However, unlike the Great Ling Clan, the Great Xiao Clan didn't hide their animosity against the Great Ye Clan.

Even though Emperor Ye ruled the whole realm, there were bound to be few powers who didn't like to be under his rule.

The Great Xiao Clan was one of them.

Why did Ye Tian Yun mention them?

Well, they were one of the reasons why Ye Tian Long hated the Great Ye Clan.

After all, his third uncle, Ye Tian Fan, never blamed or hated the Great Ye Clan, then how could so much hatred form in Ye Tian Long without anyone flaming the anger?

The person who sowed the seeds of hatred in Ye Tian Long's heart was a young lady from Xiao Clan's younger generation.

Ye Tian Yun took a deep breath and shook his head.

'Love can also be a poison.'

…

After about fifteen minutes, Ye Tian Yun was sitting in his room.

He was waiting for Butler Liu to return so he could then try his luck on getting new kinds of Sword Domains.

Butler Liu returned one hour later.

As soon as he knocked on the door, Ye Tian Yun stood up and made him come in.

"Crown Prince, here it is." Butler Liu took out a spatial ring and gave it to Ye Tian Yun.

"This ring contains everything you asked for." 

"Oh, that's great," Ye Tian Yun nodded, "I will now go into closed-door seclusion for a week. And then I plan to head towards the Lower Heavens."

Butler Liu nodded, "I can take you to the Lower Heavens if you want. I am sure you will be able to save a lot of time."

Ye Tian Yun nodded, "That will be great, but we will have to make a careful disguise."

"Indeed," Butler Liu nodded his head, "The whole world's attention will be on you for some time because of the Ling Clan's little stunt."

Ye Tian Yun nodded, "Yes, that's why we will have to be extra careful."

Butler Liu smiled, "Don't worry about that, Crown Prince. I will have everything ready."

Ye Tian smiled, "Alright, that's great. I will start my cultivation then, see you one week later."

Butler Liu smiled and headed outside of the room.

Once outside, he closed the door and then glancing at the guards standing in the hallway, he said, "No one is allowed to approach the Crown Prince lest you disturb his cultivation and court death."

Squinting his eyes slightly, Butler Liu went straight towards Emperor Ye's palace.

As soon as he stood in front of the courtyard, Emperor Ye called him inside, "Come."

Soon, Butler Liu was standing in front of the table where Ye Tian Yun stood earlier in the morning.

"What happened, Brother Liu?" Emperor Ye asked without removing his attention from the papers on the table in front of him.

"Your Majesty," Butler Liu pursed his lips and asked, "What are your plans regarding the Crown Prince's engagement?"
