Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Even the most powerful cultivator Bai Qing'er had ever met, Sect Leader Su, couldn't hide his thoughts and here, she wasn't able to see through a random disciple.

This discovery shocked her. Her second reaction was nervousness. For someone like her, who had relied on her ability for her whole life, to not be able to read someone's mind, made her feel a bit insecure and panicky.

Even though she didn't show her emotions, however, her initial surprise was reflexive and she wasn't able to get control of her emotions and Zheng Xiang had noticed her surprise. But her only thought she was impressed by his lines and continued to flaunt his pick-up skills.

Meanwhile, Ye Tian Yun was still mulling over why the Sect let go of such a talented disciple in his previous life and if should befriend her or not while also thinking why in the world was Zheng Xiang acting so weird.

All of sudden, the three of them heard of a commotion from the entrance. Turning their heads, they found that it was due to a disciple entering the Hall. And from the reaction around him, this disciple was undoubtedly a famous one.

Zheng Xiang, who had now stopped simping over Bai Qing'er, frowned at that guy and said, "Brother Fang, it's the guy we met in the Resource Hall earlier today, Mu Xing."

Ye Tian Yun nodded. However, suddenly a thought flashed in his mind, 'How come Mu Xing's entrance attracted so much reaction, while nobody seemed to even know the girl sitting beside them?'

'This girl is either really good at keeping a low profile or the disciples are yet to know about her true identity.'

And when Ye Tian Yun turned to look at her reaction, he found her staring at him.

She had her eyes squinted with a small frown on her forehead, looking at him as if he was sus.

This surprised him. There was no reason for her to even know him, let alone look at him as if he had harmed her.

'Did she fell in love with me? But I am in Fang Chen's disguise, or was that bastard Fang Chen acquainted with her? Judging from her reaction, it's most likely the latter.'

For a moment he felt a bit regretful, 'Damn it, I shouldn't have killed Fang Chen so easily without getting all the information out of his mouth.'

He moved his eyes brows to non-verbally ask her, 'What are you looking at?'

However, this made Bai Qing'er come back to her senses, she turned her head and looked the other way, clearly ignoring his question.

'Weird girl.'

Ye Tian Yun shook his head and then looked at Mu Xing.

Mu Xing who had just entered the Hall was at the center of the attention and was currently frowning as he stomped forward, lost in his own thoughts.

Being a very dedicated sword cultivator, he was quite indifferent and didn't care much about attention. And now that he had a rival in his sword path, he had willed himself to surpass her and become the best sword cultivator of his generation in the Gracious Sword Sect.

Unknowingly, while he was still lost in his thoughts, he had passed most of the seats and had come to the seats closer to the throne.

Suddenly he came back to his senses when his eyes landed on an otherworldly beauty, however, as soon as he looked at her, she also raised her head and their eyes met.

And for a second, he was met with such intense sword intent that he felt as if his heart stopped beating for a second.

'It's her! It's got to be her!'

Mu Xing suddenly halted and immediately looked away. After some time took the next seat to the empty seat beside Bai Qing'er.

Then he didn't even look at her again, still in shock from the sword intent attack from her.

After Mu Xing chose to leave a seat between him and Bai Qing'er, he unknowingly created an awkward scene in the front row. Because no one was daring enough to sit there unless another top disciple decided to fill the empty seat, which was going to be very unlikely.

Meanwhile, as the top three disciples of the other peaks also began to arrive, there were occasional waves of commotion among the other disciples, especially for the well-known disciples like Xu Peng of the eighth Peak and Qin Feng of the sixth Peak.

Soon the real superstars of the banquet also arrived in the Hall. The first to come was the previous top Outer Court disciple, Hu Xing.

Hu Xing, even though had lost to Xiao Ming in their final confrontation, was still a very well-known figure, even among the already existing Inner Court Disciples. He didn't have the air of arrogance around him as one would expect since Hu Xing had been a Top disciple for a long time. In fact, he seemed a very chilled and easy-going person.

However, Ye Tian Yun knew his true nature. He was one of the people who would do anything to achieve their goals and by anything, Ye Tian Yun meant it.

In his previous life, Hu Xing played a pivotal role during the rise of Fang Chen and Xiao Ming duo, albeit he was their enemy.

And he was the most cunning opponent they had ever faced. Hu Xing may have lacked the heaven-defying talent unlike them, however, what he had were his connections. He knew people. Important people. People of different social circles. People of all classes.

His connections made him a difficult foe. Only when his whole clan was in danger of extinction did he get caught in the web of schemes and was later killed by Fang Chen.

But in Ye Tian Yun's opinion, Fang Chen made a mistake. To kill off someone like Hu Xing was a stupid move. This man knew how to make connections. If he had enough time and there wasn't a clash between him and Xiao Ming, he would have definitely become an even bigger schemer and a greater threat to the God's Legion or Ye Tian Yun himself, depending on where his interests lied.

Even while Fang Chen was only trying to hide his talent and learning to the scheme, Hu Xing was already making connections with the strongest organization in the whole Lower Heavens, the Crimson Pavilion.

And why was he doing all this when his talent in cultivation could have easily given him an easy life? Well, Ye Tian Yun had no answer about this. But he did know that in the whole Gracious Sword Sect, the most difficult enemy wouldn't be Xiao Ming as long as Hu Xing was alive and he also remembered that Fang Chen had offended Hu Xing before he came to the forest where he was later killed by Ye Tian Yun.

So now, Ye Tian Yun, who was in Fang Chen's disguise, and Hu Xing, who once declared Fang Chen as his enemy, were going to be on a rocky start.
