Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Chapter 142 - "Don't Try To Be A Hero."

The Devil Sect.

Every story has an antagonist, and when the God's legion began their conquest to conquer the Lower Heavens, they were met by their counterparts, the Devil Sect. 

If Ye Tian Yun was the main boss of the Middle Heavens, then the Devils Sect was the main boss of the Lower Heavens which God's Legion had to defeat in order to move forward.

The only difference between Ye Tian Yun and Devil Sect was that this sect was very discreet and never had any clear agenda, on the other hand, apart from the feud which happened between Wang Yao and Ye Tian Yun when they first met, Ye Tian Yun was also after the Emblems which were in God's Legion members' possession. 

The Emblems are needed to summon the throne, which will allow its possessor to rule over the Middle Heavens.

But the Devil Sect showed no interest in this. But somehow they got entangled in the God's Legion's conquest and became public enemy number one after their hidden schemes came to light.

Eventually, the Devil Sect was destroyed but its main members were never killed. They just went into hiding.

Ye Tian Yun was never interested in them, thus he never tried to find much, neither did he bother to dig any history. In his opinion, this sect was just a coward which could only win using underhanded measures.

And one of those underhanded measures was the use of Sleeper Cells.

To be honest, whoever came with this method was no less than a genius. 

This method allowed the Devil Sect to enter their enemy's base, and destroy it from within without ever letting anyone else find out.

Ye Tian Yun, in his previous life, may not have been interested in finding out the remaining members of the Devil Sect after their massacre by the God's Legion, but he was very intrigued by the use of Sleeper Cells.

And thus, to no one's surprise, his informants found out about the intricacies of the Sleeper Cells.

How they are trained, how could such a thing even be possible, how they worked, and the most important of all, how to identify them.

Ye Tian Yun got to know answers to all these questions. 

And tonight, when he heard Jun Xie tell him about the existence of the 'Sleeper Cells', all these memories suddenly popped up in his mind.

Earlier the weird feeling which was bugging him due to the shout which he had heard was now gone as the answer behind the shout was laid out in front of him.

And he also knew how to identify the sleeper cells.

Suddenly he looked at Jun Xie's hands and nodded. 'Alright, at least he's not a sleeper cell.'

Jun Xie, who was observing his expression as it turned from calm to surprise, shock, and then enlightenment, couldn't help but frown when he noticed Ye Tian Yun staring at his hands.

He asked, "you done looking? So, where was I, ah yes, the Sleeper Cells. You see, they are like suicidal human bombs which will explo-"

"I know what they are." Ye Tian Yun had a severe expression on his face as he interrupted Jun Xie.

Jun Xie on the other hand was shocked to hear his word, "You know!? What do you mean you know? Do you know about the Sleeper Cells? But how is that possible? Even the elders didn't know what they were. I heard it's classified information, so how is it possible that a normal Young Master of a clan and an Inner Court disciple of an average sect know about these sleeper cells?"

Jun Xie sent a barrage of questions hurling towards Ye Tian Yun who chose to reply none of them.

"Let's go, we need to warn everyone," Ye Tian Yun got up from his seat and was about to head towards the gate on the left of the throne.

"Wait!" Jun Xie blocked him, "First tell me, how in the world do you know about it?"

"Trust me, even if I tell you, it's not gonna be of any use, because for every second you waste, the most chance that we will lose our lives in an hour or two."

Jun Xie pursed his lips. He wanted to know how nobody like Fang Chen knew so many things.

He didn't move aside, but after a pause, he asked, "Do you think anyone will believe you outside? Why should the elders believe you? You're also under suspicion."

Ye Tian Yun smiled, "You don't have to worry about that. There's someone out there who won't let anything happen to me at any cost."

Jun Xie shook his head, "If you're talking about Yuan Shuchun then I must burst that bubble of yours. She ain't gonna help anyone who causes trouble for her."

"Who said I need her help?" Ye Tian Yun smirked. He didn't need to rely on Yuan SHuchun when the person with the most authority won't let anything happen to him. More precisely, he won't let anything happen to Fang Chen.

Jun Xie had no idea who he was talking about, "Well, we just made a pact. And you're literally the only person who knows what I am looking for. So I can't allow you to be foolish and let you think that you will become a hero by saving everyone. No, you will not. Everyone will become wary of you, even Yuan Shuchun, whose league you were desperately trying to join will treat you with suspicion."

"We can do this, you tell me what you want to say to the elders, and I will inform them, and give them a reason like I just remembered this information. This won't bring any suspicion on you, and you will be able to save yourself from a lot of troubles. So, just tell me what is going on in your mind."

Ye Tian Yun gave a slight smile as he replied, "I am not trying to become a hero, I just don't want to die without even knowing what hit me.. And, You're really underestimating the Fang Clan."
