Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Chapter 539 - 539 | The Deal

Tap!

A silhouette jumped and entered the Fang Clan manor.

Looking around, it slowly headed towards the northern part of the manor.

Arriving in an empty courtyard, it slowly entered the main room through the roof window and then quietly landed on the surface, removing the mask.

'Sigh…'

Exhaling a long breath, it laid on the bed.

'Did I do it right?'

The silhouette was none other than our homie Ye Tian Yun.

He had just returned from the Gao Clan and was thinking about Gao Xuan's question before their meeting ended.

'What is your name?'

It was a simple question.

But for some reason, Ye Tian Yun felt this question was very important.

It was just an intuition. But this intuition was very strong.

In the end, Ye Tian Yun chose his response - the truth.

"Ye Tian Yun." He replied.

There was a noticeable surprise in Gao Xuan's eyes, but it didn't last long, and he had resumed his own composure.

"I trust you." Gao Xuan had said, and then Ye Tian Yun left the Gao Clan.

'Trust huh…'

Ye Tian Yun smiled.

He could have chosen to say any name, but he told the truth purely based on intuition.

'Anyway, it's not like there's only one Ye Tian Yun in the whole world.'

Upon closing his eyes, a beautiful face appeared in his mind.

'Gao Suyin…'

He immediately shook his head.

'It's impossible between us.'

…

"He trusts us."

In the Gao Clan, there were many courtyards. However, only two of them were unguarded courtyards.

They belonged to Third Miss Gao Suyin and the Fourth Young Master Gao Xuan.

The reason behind this was unknown, but it was Clan Head Gao Kang's order.

And currently, both of the siblings were standing in the garden in front of the hallway leading to their courtyards.

This was the exact place where Ye Tian Yun and Gao Xuan chatted with each other.

"Why does he trust us?" Gao Suyin asked with a curious expression.

Gao Xuan shrugged, "Don't ask me. We both have the same thoughts."

Gao Suyin nodded, "Yeah."

Just then, a few faint footsteps were heard, and four silhouettes appeared in the courtyard.

"What happened?" Gao Suyin glanced at the four.

"We felt you were in danger."

"Oh?" Gao Suyin smiled, "You came pretty late. If I were really in danger, I would have been long dead."

The Four lowered their gaze, "We were outside the Capital City. I hope things have been well."

Gao Suyin nodded, "Don't worry. It's not easy to kill me."

She then turned towards Gao Xuan and said, "You know what you need to do. Talk to Father very carefully. Wait, should I talk to him personally about this?"

The five others, including Gao Xuan, stared at her without replying.

Gao Suyin let out a sigh, "Haiish… I always forget that I am basically talking to myself."

She shook her head and then gazed at the night sky with a thousand thoughts running through her head.

After about ten minutes, she turned towards Gao Xuan and said, "I will talk to my father about this. I need to convince him to give the Thunder Valley to Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun."

"Will you reveal his identity?" Gao Xuan asked.

Gao Suyin shook her head, "Of course not. I don't have a death wish."

Gao Xuan nodded, "True. But… I noticed one thing."

"What?" Gao Suyin asked.

"The Crown Prince was mesmerized by you, hahaha," Gao Xuan laughed.

Gao Suyin shook her head, "It was just because he was surprised. Thank goodness he came a few minutes later, or things would have been much more complicated."

Then turning towards the four people who had come from outside of Capital City, she said, "You guys go back. If someone sees you, it will bring me endless trouble."

The four of them nodded, "Yes."

Without another word, they jumped up and disappeared into the darkness.

Gao Xuan let out a sigh, "You should consider changing their faces."

Gao Suyin shook her head, "That won't be much fun. Also, it's hard to keep them for long if they have a different face."

Goa Xuan frowned, "Are you having trouble with me?"

If anyone else were here, he would have thought this was a weird and out-of-context question to ask.

But only Gao Suyin knew what this question truly meant.

She shook her head, "Only one person is not much trouble. Go to the tavern and read the manuscript of the encounter about that mysterious person a few days ago. I am now confident that it was Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun in someone's disguise."

Gao Xuan nodded, "I will go right away."

Siu-!

He disappeared.

'Sigh…'

Gao Suyin let out another sigh after everyone had left.

'Token of Reality…'

She pursed her lips.

'I need to increase my cultivation, or else I will go crazy because of this thing.'

She took a deep breath and headed back to her room.

Her room didn't have much decoration and was quite simple.

As she laid on the bed, a face appeared in her mind.

'Ye Tian Yun…'

She immediately shook her head.

'It's impossible between us.'

…

A few kilometers away from Capital City.

In the starry glow of dark night, a group of carriages was slowly heading towards the capital city.

While most of the carriages were filled with goods or people, one carriage only had three people.

If Ye Tian Yun were present, he would have instantly recognized two of the three.

They were Jun Xie and Wu Qingwu.

The people he had been waiting for the last two days.

Both of them were sitting opposite each other.

While Wu Qingwu was cultivating while sitting in a cross-legged lotus position, Jun Xie was focused on a manual in his hand. As for the third person, he was a young man who had joined them midway and hadn't spoken a word.

Just then, they heard a few footsteps and then a slight nudge near the curtains.

"Brother Jun Xie, are you awake?"

Someone called out from outside.

Jun Xie moved his hands and removed the curtains. He smiled at the young man on the other side and asked, "What happened, Brother Fu?"

The young man in front of him was none other than Fu Kai - the one who had taken him and his fellow disciples to the Silver Mist City a few months back.

"Brother Jun, we are about to reach the Capital City in a few minutes. I was wondering if you would like to stay in one of my clan's taverns? It's midnight right now. I don't think this will be the right time to visit the Fang Clan."

Jun Xie nodded, "Thank you, brother Fu, but I have already troubled you quite a lot. I don't wish to burden you anymore."

"Haha, don't put it like that, Brother Jun," Fu Kai laughed, "You have helped a lot along the way. How could I not repay you? And don't worry about implicating Fang Clan into anything." 

"Ah," Jun Xie pursed his lips, "Alright then, I will trouble you for one more night."

"Good," Fu Kai nodded, "I have already sent a guard to arrange a room for you two."

"You already sent him?" Jun Xie laughed, "You knew I would agree."

"Hahaha," Fu Kai laughed along and then glanced at the third person in the carriage, "Brother Feng Yun, I have done the same for you too, hahaha!"

...

A/n: Feng Yun. Ringing any bells?
