Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Chapter 527 - 527 | Solution?



Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "I know very well. Also, this won't be my last resort. But I don't want to get to that, that is why I want everyone in this room to support me and help me get to Thunder Valley."

Prime Minister Fang let out a sigh and took his seat.

He then glanced at his sister, Fang Bai, who had been silent all along.

"Sister, what are your thoughts?" He asked.

Fang Bai stared at him for a moment and looked the other way.

She was not planning to interfere.

Prime Minister Fang let out a sigh, and glanced at the other two for their opinion..

Fang Ji spoke first, "This marriage is important for Xiao Chen's future and also important for both clans. I do not want us to break off this engagement. We should try convincing the Gao Clan, but in the end, if nothing comes up, we can only give up on everything."

'Hm?'

Ye Tian Yun was surprised by this response. He had expected Fang Ji to be against everything, but it turned out to be the opposite, and he was actually supporting him!

Suddenly, a prompt appeared above Fang Ji's head.

[Fang Ji. 3 Star Favourability. Is worried about your future, and if afraid of you ruining the Clan's future.](Fang Chen)

Ye Tian Yun pursed his lips.

'This prompt didn't appear earlier….'

Suddenly. Madam Fang's words brought Ye Tian Yun out of his thoughts.

"I agree with Brother-in-law. However, I want this to be the very last option. If nothing comes up, we will have no choice but to break off the marriage. We need to do something to convince the Gao Clan."

Prime Minister Fang Yuan rubbed his forehead, "How could they give up on their ancestral land? I don't see any positive outcome from this mess."

He then glanced at Fang Yunru and asked, "Yun'er, what do you think?"

Fang Yunru was taken aback by this mainly because he was not expecting to have a say in this matter.

"Ah.. uh… I.." He stuttered for a moment before getting hold of himself and then said, "I will support Xiao Chen. No matter what he desires, I will support him as long as it's not against the Clan's best wishes."

Prime Minister Fang smiled, "So, you think breaking off the marriage is for the best wishes of the clan?"

"Uh…" Fang Yunru was speechless. He hadn't thought it through before speaking.

"Yes." Ye Tian Yun spoke at this moment, "I can assure you that it is for the best if we have the Thunder Valley. The Gao Clan doesn't see its real value and only thinks of it as ancestral land."

After a slight pause, he added, "how about we promise them that we will not touch their old village? It's not like the village is spread through the whole Valley, right?"

"Hm," Prime Minister Fang nodded, "I thought of this too, but we need a few more options because it's unlikely that this will be enough to convince them."

"How about you promise them that we won't touch the ancestral building, and Gao Clan doesn't have permanently give away the Thunder Valley to us; rather, we will only take it on lease for a few years."

The person who spoke this time was not Ye Tian Yun.

Rather, to everyone's surprise, it was Fang Bai, Fang Chen's mother.

Ye Tian Yun glanced at her and saw a prompt above her hand.

[Fang Bai. 7 Stars Favourability. You're the most important existence to her. Period.](Fang Chen)

'Woah… this is even higher than Butler Liu….'

Ye Tian Yun was inwardly shocked upon seeing the prompt.

"Anything else we can add?" Prime Minister Fang asked, "I feel like another condition will be enough to help us get this deal."

Madam Fang spoke, "How about we guarantee that Gao Suyin will be the next Madam of the Fang Clan, and Fang Chen will not have any concubine, ever."

Ye Tian Yun immediately shook his head," no. We can't promise that. Nothing is certain in the future; it's better not to make any false promises."

Prime Minister Fang frowned, "Why is it uncertain? You are not confident in yourself?"

"No, that's not the reason," Ye Tian Yun spoke directly, "I am not as interested in becoming the next Clan Head as everything in this room thinks."

"Oh?" Prime Minister Fang scratched his chin, "Are you planning to become a monk? You don't want to get married; you don't want to become Clan Head; you want to live in seclusion… if those are not the signs of becoming an ascetic monk, then what are?"

Ye Tian Yun smiled, "Let's say I have bigger goals. There are many things I have in my mind that I must do, and did you forget what we discussed two days ago?"

The Fang Couple frowned, "Were you serious…?"

"Of course!" Ye Tian Yun nodded, "Why would I joke about that matter?"

"What' matter'?" Fang Bai asked.

The Fang couple turned silent. Fang Bai asked Ye Tian Yun, "Xiao Chen, what are you talking about?"

Ye Tian Yun bit lip, and after a moment of silence, he said, "I will take part in the Grand Spirit Hunt for the position of Young Dragon."

"You what-!" Three shocked expressions appeared in front of Ye Tian Yun.

Fang Bai and Fang Ji were shocked because this came as unexpected news.

And, Fang Yunru, who was shocked because he would participate in the competition, now had to go against his own brother.

'What in the world….'

Ye Tian Yun nodded, "yes. But, I will not marry the Third Princess, not only because she's my cousin, but also because, just like with Gao Suyin, I have no interest in marrying the princess."

"This…"

The three of them looked at him in a shocked expression.

"Xiao Chen…"

After a long moment of silence, Fang Bai spoke, "Do you know how complicated everything now has become? You can't have everything. Either we convince the Gao Clan to give the Thunder Valley, or you take part in the Grand Spirit Hunt."

"You will have to choose one of the two - there is no middle ground."
