Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

'System, why is it that my Sword Intent is still at only one percent?' Didn't you once tell me that it would increase based on the stability of my Sword Intent?'

[Indeed, Host.]

'Then…?'

[Host, the control you feel over your Sword Domain still needs some work - the most important factor would be its practical use.]

'You mean in battle?'

[Yes. As soon as Host uses his Sword Domain in battle, the percentage in the stats would increase.]

Ye Tian Yun then asked, 'But, there should have been at least some increase, right?'

[There is an increase in the percentage. It is just not shown in the stats.]

'Oh, so basically, it's just hidden temporarily? Any reason for that?'

[It is just to not make you overconfident over your control. Because, sometimes, the control one has over his Sword Domain while practicing is much higher than his actual control. Only in a battle would the true situation come out.]

'Hmm, alright. Hopefully, my control doesn't betray me when the time comes. Fainting in between a battle is the last thing I want to experience.'

[Host, if that ever happened, it WILL be the last thing you would experience.]

"..."

Ye Tian Yun didn't say anything and continued to move towards the exit of the Inner Court.

He didn't have any aim in his mind, but he was truly hoping to encounter an idiot or two whose arrogance would be higher than the heavens, and he would then have fun exchanging a few words with them.

'It's been a long time since I last saw Hu Xing… is that guy still training with the Nine Supremes?'

'Jun Xie put Hu Xing into the radar of everyone and dug a nice grave for that guy. Let's see if he can survive the coming months. Hopefully, he doesn't die. His annoyed expression is really good to see. I can understand why Fang Chen was always after this guy.'

'There's also Yuan Shuch-!'

"Dude, move!"

Just as Ye Tian Yun was lost in his thoughts, someone called him out from behind.

Turning around, he found two disciples with their faces half covered.

Confused with their attire, he stepped aside and let them go ahead.

Though both of them looked very familiar, he just couldn't remember where he had seen those two.

Ye Tian Yun followed them just a few steps behind, with a slight frown over his face while trying to think where he had seen these two people.

The distance between both sides increased as the two in front of him hurried towards the chain bridge while Ye Tian Yun moved at a leisurely pace.

Soon, the two were lost in the sea of disciples.

After some time, Ye Tian Yun also reached the chain bridge, his mind still on the silhouette of those two disciples.

'Who were they? And that guy on the left… looked so.. Weird?'

Confused about what had just happened, Ye Tian Yun raised his head to look for the chain bridge - lo and behold - there they were. The two disciples had covered their faces.

'Are they covering their faces so as not to attract attention?'

But looking at the disciples around those two, Ye Tian Yun couldn't help but be amused, 'They are attracting more attention with their faces covered.'

And the funnier part was that they were still waiting for the Chain Bridge even though they came here running, while Ye Tian Yun went at a pretty chill speed.

One of the masked disciples suddenly moved his head towards Ye Tian Yun, seemingly noticing his smirk.

A sharp killing intent struck out!

But the one who got surprised was the masked disciple who released it.

Because the disciple in front of him was unaffected!

'Who is this guy?'

He couldn't understand what had just happened - did a random disciple just remain unaffected from his killing intent? 

Meanwhile, on the other hand, Ye Tian Yun was quite shocked.

Not because of the sudden killing intent attack, but because of the familiar aura.

It wasn't familiar, but he did know which disciples had such auras.

Disciples of the Heaven Oracle Sect.

The masked disciples in front of him were Qin Wentian and Shi Yi!

Ye Tian Yun unknowingly smirked even more, and a tinge of killing intent went straight at the couple in front of him.

The masked couple suddenly raised their head and stared straight at Ye Tian Yun.

The only visible part of their face, their eyes, were filled with horror!

They slowly moved their attention away from Ye Tian Yun; however, their backs were already stretched with cold sweat!

To them, it felt like death was just a step away - smirking at their pitiful state.

While they felt a dreadful fear, Ye Tian Yun, on the other hand, was quite confused.

Why were they here, like this, in disguise?

It's not like they needed to disguise themselves or even try to hide their identity.

'Most probably it's just so they don't attract attention… but where are they going?'

Ye Tian Yun frowned.

These two were important for him to get out of the sect, so it would be best to know if anything were about to go sideways.

And how was he going to know what's going on?

Well, he was simply going to ask them.

Ye Tian Yun stepped forward and came right in front of the two.

As soon as he came close, the two had their backs straightened.

With a curious expression, he asked, "Where are both of you heading?"

The taller disciple, whom Ye Tian Yun had presumed to be Qin Wentian, replied, We...we are heading out."

"Out?" Ye Tian Yun frowned. This was not right. 'They can't go out. Who will I disguise as if not them!'

"Yy-yes." Qin Wentian repeatedly nodded his head. 

He himself was confused with his own 'scared' reaction.

Ye Tian Yun asked again, "Out of the sect? For how long?"

Qin Wentian looked around, and, noticing everyone's eyes on him, he unknowingly gulped and replied, "We-we are going back to our sect."
