Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

A new day had begun in the Silver Mist City.

And today, the talk of the town was a certain tavern.

It was said that last night a huge shout rang out from the tavern, and after a few moments, the whole building suddenly blasted, waking up half of the city.

With the rising sun, as the dust settled, people began to arrive at the incident site and discuss the possible reasons behind the incident.

"They didn't find anyone else's body. Only Old Qian's burnt body could be barely identified. Trust me, something like this had never happened in the last fifty years of me, Peng Ji's stay within the city. " One of the bystanders was explaining the incident to the newcomers.

"The others couldn't be identified, or they weren't even found?" Someone asked Peng Ji.

"There were few bodies, one of them was beheaded and spiked on a spear! But it was so burnt that no one could identify the person."

"Damn… who was this cruel?"

"Maybe the person who shouted last night?" Someone quipped.

Peng Ji nodded his head, "Could be. It was said that the shout came from a young man, and Old Qian was just an old tavern owner."

"What if it was from the servants?" 

"This is also a possibility, but it's highly unlikely because all servants were found in the kitchen, and most of them were burnt alive due to the explosion. However, we found three other bodies. One was Old Qian's, another one was a girl's head spiked on a spear, and the last one was a limbless body."

"Unfortunately, we couldn't identify the remaining two." Peng Ji let out a sigh as he finished his words.

The people around him also quieted down.

This was an unfortunate event.

"What do you think could have been the cause?" Someone asked after a long silence.

However, those who had the answer to this question were long dead in the fire.

The others could only speculate.

Slowly after a few hours, people began to leave. This was an incident that didn't affect them, so they didn't care much about it.

However, at a corner of the street, a young man was staring at the burnt building with a blank expression.

The air around him made people suffocate, and they dare not approach this malevolent existence.

Peng Ji, who had been at the center of the attention, had specially kept his eye on the boy.

As the crowd slowly dispersed, Peng Ji got the chance to approach him.

"Boy, you have been standing here for hours. Don't tell me you knew someone from this tavern?" Peng Ji asked as he walked closer to the young man.

The boy, who was in his teen years, glanced at Peng Ji for a moment and then resumed staring at the burnt building.

Peng Ji frowned but didn't get angry. He didn't wish to misunderstand the other party; what if the boy had lost someone close in the explosion? The current reaction was pretty much normal, if that was true.

"Boy, if you had lost someone last night, let me tell you one thing. One of the storms we all must face in our lives is the passing of someone dear to our hearts. I am sorry you are facing this right now, but I know you are strong enough to get through it."

"But if you're admiring the burnt building… then fuck you!"

With that said, Peng Ji turned and left without saying anything else.

The young man glanced at the back of the man, forever etching this silhouette in his mind.

After some time, the young man took a long breath and stood up.

"Ji Yi, a million Devil Sects won't be enough to burn in your remembrance. But for now, let me bury this city with you."

With this promise, the young man disappeared into the crowd.

…

Main Hall, Jia Lei Shan Clan.

The three members of the Devil Sect were currently sitting and staring at the entrance.

The atmosphere was heavy, and silence prevailed through the hall.

After a few minutes, they frowned at the door as a faint tapping of footsteps echoed through the hallway.

Someone was coming.

The person they had been waiting for.

"Greetings, Seniors."

It was Ye Tian Yun, disguised as Shu Xian. He greeted the three of them and entered the hall.

He wasn't surprised by the expressions on the face of the three, and he had already expected this.

The three of them remained silent and stared at Ye Tian Yun.

'Old psychological tricks? So this is how they want to deal with the situation?'

It was clear that the three of them were angry. However, to assert dominance, they were not going to be the first to speak.

But unfortunately, they were sitting in front of Ye Tian Yun.

The guy with no friends… the silence was his companion.

After a long time, seeing no panic on Ye Tian Yun's face, one of them finally gave in.

"Shu Xian, do you know what you did last night?" It was Yin Shan who spoke.

Ye Tian Yun nodded his head, "Yes, Senior."

"Do you think it was right?" Yin Shan asked.

Ye Tian Yun didn't hesitate to answer, "It was the best choice."

"Best choice?" The Elder opened his mouth for the first time, "Weren't you the one who strongly suggested that we should not attract attention?"

Ye Tian Yun nodded his head, "Indeed. We can't let the enemy know about our existence."

"Oh?" Yin Shan sneered, "You don't want anyone to know anything, and then you go and blow the building?"

Ye Tian Yun nodded his head, "Yes. I blew up the building for two reasons - I didn't wish to leave any witnesses, and the second was - I didn't wish for anyone two identify the Heaven Oracle Sect disciples."

"Even though the chances were low that anyone would be able to identify them, we still can't take any risks."

"Then why didn't you blow the building from the start? I saw you go after a girl, and then before I could assess anything, the building blew up."
