Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

As soon as Ye Tian Yun stepped inside the Second Floor Hall, he found he was the last to arrive.

'Did Xiao Ming fly over here?' 

Looking at the back of his target, Ye Tian Yun couldn't help but smirk.

'If only there weren't any other Tokens within the sect, I would have targeted this guy instead of Shu Xian. Then, I would have easily left the sect disguised as him.'

'Sigh, some things just prolong the trouble.'

Ye Tian Yun slowly moved and sat on the seat right beside Yuan Shuchun.

Yuan Shuchun, who had been lost in her thoughts, raised her head and nodded at him.

It was just a simple greeting, and there wasn't any malicious intent.

'She's either really good at hiding her emotions, or she just doesn't care and is planning something bigger.' Ye Tian Yun nodded his head at her as a greeting.

The room once again returned to its calm.

In front of him, Xiao Ming was sitting and staring at a small booklet in his hand.

Ye Tian Yun chose not to say anything and remain silent.

Finally, after a good long time, Yuan Shuchun finally said something, "I told you yesterday about the disciples who would be going with us for the mission."

Xiao Ming and Ye Tian Yun nodded their heads at her.

Yuan Shuchun continued after a slight pause, "Well, at that time, I didn't know about all the members, but now I have the list."

Xiao Ming asked, "So are they from  leagues other than the World League?"

Yuan Shuchun let out a sigh, "I am afraid that is true. They are putting all the critical disciples from the rival leagues together in this mission."

"Don't tell me they are planning something stupid?" Xiao Ming couldn't help but call out.

Yuan Shuchun shrugged, "I have no idea. But anything can happen because I have another bad news. To be honest, I don't know if it's bad or good because I, myself, am quite confused over this."

"Oh? What is it?" Ye Tian Yun asked.

He was interested in anything that annoyed these two people in front of him.

Yuan Shuchun pursed her lips and replied after a moment of silence, "Jiang Chen disappeared."

"Who? The guy who was almost assassinated on the day of the banquet?" Xiao Ming asked while scratching his chin.

Ye Tian Yun didn't show any reaction. However, he was inwardly frowning because he had a hunch where Jiang Chen may have gone.

'Meh, it's not like I need to care about him. I don't think I will even return to this sect once again.'

He didn't need to worry about what trouble Jiang Chen was going to concoct for the sect. Once he reached his goal, he would just focus on the next target.

Yuan Shuchun, in contrast, was very dissatisfied with their reactions, "What's up with you two, huh? Can't you guys be a bit serious? Don't you understand the seriousness of this situation?"

Xiao Ming shrugged, "What could he do? And I think it's pretty stupid of him to go anywhere. In fact, I have a feeling that he was kidnapped."

Yuan Shuchun shook her head, "No, he was not kidnapped. All the higher-ups have come to this conclusion. They have thoroughly searched everything, but nothing came up. Jiang Chen ran away from the sect."

"Maybe he's gone to recover himself?" Ye Tian Yun put forth his guess.

Yuan Shuchun shook her head, "No, if it were any other disciple, I would have agreed with this guess, but not for Jiang Chen."

"Jiang Chen thoroughly understands the capabilities of the sect. He knows there's no better place than here for him to recover in the whole Lower Heavens."

Xiao Ming was quite intrigued; he leaned forward and said, "Whole Lower Heavens? Are you sure you're not bluffing?"

Yuan Suchun shook her head, "Nevermind that, you guys are still not Core Disciples. Maybe in the future, you will understand the meaning of my words."

Xiao Ming was quite shocked by her words; on the other hand, Ye Tian Yun had the urge to roll his eyes.

'She's definitely talking about the Sword Stele where the sect has kept the high-tier Spirit Vein well-hidden.'

But since he was disguised as Shu Xian, he wasn't supposed to know this. 

Instead, he had to pretend a bit shocked, "Senior Sister, is it that serious? Our sect has a hidden treasure or something?"

Yuan Shuchun shook her head, "A treasure can be stolen, but this thing can't be stolen. Only the whole sect's extinction can change the owner of that thing."

"And the extinction of the sect is impossible." Yuan Shuchun slowly shook her head and narrowed her eyes, "I would never let that happen."

Xiao Ming shrugged, "Well, there are old Sect Leaders who haven't shown their face to the public for years, and there's the Gracious Sword and its spirit."

"These are enough to push back almost all the powers in the Lower Heavens."

Ye Tian Yun nodded his head.

He agreed on this fact.

The Gracious Sword Sect wouldn't amount to much when it comes to offense. But even the most powerful organization, the Crimson Pavilion, would have to wreck their brains to get through the defense of this sect.

Yuan Shuchun let out a long sigh, "I called you both here to let you know that both of you need to be alert all the time."

Xiao Ming learned a bit more, "Senior Sister, do you know the contents of this secret mission?"

Yuan Shuchun pursed her lips, "I don't know everything. But I do have a few tidbits about it."

"Oh?" Both Xiao Ming and Ye Tian Yun were quite interested in it.

Yuan Shuchun continued, "Well, I know that this mission is actually related to someone from the Capital City; and it is by the prince, against one of the other princes."

Xiao Ming and Ye Tian Yun were both quite surprised.

"Our sect is going to enter politics!?"
