Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Chapter 459 - 459 | One Trial, Two Emblems!

Anything related to the Crown Prince would be a hot topic in the Middle Heavens, especially in this area, mainly because it was close to the Imperial City.

He was currently surrounded and overwhelmed by the people greeting him.

'I still can't get used to this…'

Even though Ye Tian Yun didn't feel anything from the stares full of awe and envy, he wasn't still used to this many people coming to greet him.

'Things will be much more normal in the Imperial City.'

The Imperial City was the capital of the Great Ye Empire; in other words, it was the capital of the whole Middle Heavens.

All major clans resided in the Imperial City, and most of the major sects had their branches there.

The whole situation was like a huge lone tree in the jungle, and the wild animals living were forced to live in harmony under its shade.

The huge lone tree was the Great Ye Clan, and it was covering all the clans and sects.

Unlike the Xin Kingdom and Wu Kingdom of Lower Heavens, things were a bit different in the Middle Heavens.

Here, not only was there one Empire ruling over everything, but the power it held over everyone was also absolute.

Except for a few exceptions like the Grand Alchemy Hall and the Heavenly Oracle Sect, every sect and clan in the Middle Heavens were subjects of the Great Ye Clan.

Even the other great clans were like subsidiaries.

This was only because of one person's existence - Emperor Ye Tian Xuan.

He was dominant, ruthless, and merciless towards the people who tried to play with him.

Even the allies had to be careful when dealing with the Emperor.

It was not that the Emperor was a tyrant; instead, this all came from the fear, respect, and reverence towards the crown.

"Finally, we're out!" Ling Qing'er let out a sigh of relief as the trio started to fly their way towards the Imperial City.

This was the first time she was in such big limelight even though she was not the main character of the situation.

Even then, she couldn't count how many curious eyes had noticed her.

The people at the Ascension Stage were very curious about her identity.

But no one dared to ask the Crown Prince in fear of offending him.

They wanted to know who this unknown girl was and why was she coming with them from the Lower Heavens?

Was she a friend of his? Or maybe more than that…

Many people had a  thought that big news was about to drop on the Imperial City.

There was a high chance that the legendary Crown Prince already had a lover!

They wondered what would be their respective clan's reaction when this news reaches them.

'Our clan has lost a big chance to tie up with the Crown Prince if that girl is really his lover…'

…

Ye Tian Yun, unaware of the thoughts of the people he had just met, was currently heading towards the Imperial City.

This was his home.

Even though he had rarely gone out of his palace when he was young, in his teen years, he had roamed the whole Middle Heavens.

While Lower Heavens was like an unknown battlefield, the Middle Heavens was his playground.

He understood the power structure and complicated relationships between major clans and sects very well.

He even knew about the major events that would shake the whole realm in the coming years.

They were etched in his mind as if it was only yesterday when he had conquered them.

'I wonder when that place will appear?'

A huge nine-floor pagoda formed in Ye Tian Yun's mind.

This was one of the most important places he needed to visit.

The nine-floor pagoda would be a legendary artifact that would play the role of a trial creator.

The trial would change the course of the history of the whole Middle Heavens.

The trial, which would present not one, but two Emblems as a reward.

And one of them would be the Emblem Of Luck.

The artifact that Ye Tian Yun had wielded in his previous life.

Although Ye Tian Yun had already proven his unparalleled talent to the masses, he took things to a whole new level once he got the Emblem Of Luck.

'But that was not enough…'

Ye Tian Yun frowned when he thought about it.

The Emblem of Luck came with a huge price. Ye Tian Yun was forced to betray the only person who had ever come close to his heart.

But even after he got the Emblem of Luck, Wang Yao and the remaining God's Legion were only a step away from him when they confronted Ye Tian Yun.

'If I didn't have the Emblem Of Luck, I am sure my death would have been even more horrific.'

Especially because he wouldn't even stand a chance against the ambush.

'This time, I will take the Emblem Of Luck… without losing anyone.'

Ye Tian Yun promised to himself.

'As for the other Emblem…'

There were two Emblems in the nine-floor pagoda.

'... I won't let it fall into that bastard's hands.'

The Second Emblem was the Emblem of Soul.

A powerful artifact that enhanced a person's spiritual talent and increased their potential so much that even becoming a Ninth Level Alchemist won't seem impossible, no matter how bad the talent was before getting the artifact.

In his previous life, Ye Tian Yun had helped his only friend to take this artifact.

This friend had then gone on to become the most powerful Alchemist the Middle Heavens had ever witnessed.

'I wonder what the outcome would have been if he had been there on the Hundred Realm Refining Stage.'

Ye Tian Yun was confident that the God's Legion would have suffered a terrible defeat even when they ambushed him and came all together, if and only if his friend had been there to keep Ye Tian Yun's back.

'But that bastard chose not to help me…'

Ye Tian Yun felt betrayed.

But suddenly, a thought sprouted in his mind.

'Was this how she felt when I betrayed her?'
