Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Peak Master Duan had thought that the commotion caused by the disciple on his peak was most likely to be due to him breaking through the Attainment Realm.

However, for Sect Leader to say that it was the Sword Domain Realm's aura that he had come across in the Seventh Peak seemed quite absurd to him.

"Senior Brother Su, are you sure about this? Not that I doubt you or anything, but even the thought of such a thing is impossible. I mean, since when it has been so easy to achieve Sword Domain? And how is it possible for anyone in Tri-Qi Realms to control the Sword domain? This-this whole situation is impossible."

Sect Leader Su stayed silent for a moment before he replied, "Well, you see, even I don't have an answer to your questions. But I do know for sure that it was Sword Domain. Why? Because my Sword Domain reacted to it. The reaction almost made me reveal my own Sword Doman to that Bastard Xuan; fortunately, I controlled it quickly."

Peak Master Duan still had a confused expression over his face, "But Senior Brother, just how is this even possible? This incident can change the power structure of our whole sect. I am afraid once Grand Elder Xuan knows about that disciple, he will either try to make him join his camp or kill him."

Sect Leader Su gritted his teeth in frustration, "That old son of a bish! He will definitely do this. And whatever he does will go against our sect's well-being."

Peak Master Duan nodded his head in agreement, "However, Senior Brother, even we don't know the identity of that disciple."

This made Sect Leader Su squint his eyes a bit; taking a sip of his wine glass, he said, "Junior Brother, who knows about this incident?"

"Uh… well, the whole Seventh Peak knows about this."

"No, I meant, who knows about the fact that someone broke through the Sword Domain?"

"Elders of my peak know about this."

"What!? Then how are we going to keep this a secret?"

"Don't worry about this, Senior Brother. All the elders who were present at the scene were my most trusted. However, even if this news leaks, I don't see anything to worry about."

"There's nothing to worry about? Junior Brother, don't you understand what will happen if Grand Elder's faction knows about who that disciple is?"

"But they don't. No one does. There are more than five hundred disciples in the Inner Court; finding someone who can control the Sword Domain will be impossible when even an idiot will try to hide that fact to not to risk his own life."

"You do have a valid point. However, the same applies to us, we need to find out who that disciple is, and we need to find out before that bastard's faction."

"Yes, that's true. But how are we going to find this disciple?"

"We don't need to. He will reveal himself soon; in fact, it will be better if he doesn't. I really hope that this disciple has intelligence and talent of the same degree. As long as this disciple doesn't show himself and remains lowkey, he will continue to be a variable in everyone's plans. We just need to make sure that the Xuan's faction doesn't uncover his identity."

Silence prevailed over the room after Sect Leader finished his words. In his opinion, as long as Grand Elder doesn't know about this disciple, he (Grand Elder) will regard this as a variable in his plans, making him restrict his actions around the Seventh Peak.

After a while, Peak Master Duan broke the ice, trying to change the topic, he asked, "Senior Brother, did you get any news about Sister-in-law ever since that letter?"

Sect Leader Su's expression grimaced in pain as the face of the person who he wanted to meet most flashed in front of his eyes. Taking a moment to reply, he sighed and said, "Life is quite unpredictable, even with such cultivation and power, I can't just go and save her. I don't even know if she's alright."

"Five months ago, when you brought that letter all of a sudden, it rekindled the dead hope inside me. This hope helped me pass through the barrier and breakthrough to the Sword Domain. Now, my life is already extended. I don't need anything from the Grand Spirit Hunt, nor do I need to do politics in my own Sect."

"Everything going on is just a funny game to me. The whole world thinks that I am a perverted horny man who screwed lots of women in my younger days and gave birth to many bastards. It's laughable that what the world thinks is exactly the opposite of what I am. Sometimes I hope that these rumors don't reach her, however, who am I kidding? Since she was able to send that letter, she must have known about those rumors."

With a pause, Sect Leader Su raised his head and said, "Junior Brother Duan, what do you think? Does she still love me? Or did she choose to believe in those rumors and have removed me from her heart?"

Peak Master Duan pursed his lips. He didn't know the contents of the letter. However, he did know that his Senior Brother was ready to give up everything for Sister-in-law.

Taking a deep breath, he said, "Senior Brother, there's no point in thinking about little rumors. One day, the Fang Clan will pay the price. However, until then, we can only wait. They have the backing of some big sects, so we can't touch them, and they even know they have spies in our own sect. And I strongly believe that Grand Elder Xuan is one of their henchmen."

Suddenly Peak Master Duan turned silent for a moment; furrowing his eyebrows, he asked, "Senior Brother, did you know that those Fang Clan bastards are so confident that they even sent their kid here to cultivate?"

When the Sect Leader heard these words, his hands unknowingly trembled. The contents of the letter flashed in front of him.

Peak Master Duan didn't notice anything and continued his words, "And Senior Brother, if you had not allowed him in during the Sect Entrance Exam, I would have definitely killed him to deter the Fang Clan. Do they think our sect is a playground?"

"No! Don't you dare touch him!" Sect Leader Su suddenly shouted out loud and dropped a bombshell over Peak Master Duan with his following words, "That boy Fang Chen is my son! My own blood!"
