Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

"Heavenly Emperor is chained by the constraints?" Ye Tian Yun couldn't make head or tail of what Wang Yao was trying to say.

Wang Yao, however, continued to say, "After becoming the Heavenly Emperor, a new door opened for me. And a whole new goal came before me. However, before I could explore anything or even step out, I was betrayed by my closest ally."

"Closest ally? The God's Legion?" Ye Tian Yun asked.

Wang Yao shook his head, "No, not them. They were just some innocent souls who got trapped in the grand scheme of Heaven."

Ye Tian Yun scratched his chin while saying, "You're trying to sound too mysterious. Let me ask you a simpler question, how is it possible that you're the Previous Host? Aren't you supposed to be from the future? How did you get the system before me then?"

Wang Yao remained silent for a long time before saying, "Ye Tian Yun, do you remember the first time we met?"

Ye Tian Yun nodded his head, "Yeah, I remember it. I came to the Lower Heavens with Butler Liu to take the Great Ling Clan's Princess back to the Middle Heavens."

Wang Yao nodded his head, "Yes, she was staying at my place ever since she was young, and both of us eventually met. I also got to know about your marriage with her, and that was the day when our rivalry began."

Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "Well yeah, but you're half right. I never considered you a rival or an enemy until you assassinated my Butler Liu with the help of your God's Legion. And about the marriage contract, well, that was the most stupid misunderstanding. You thought I was going to get married to your childhood sweetheart, and thus you hated me and eventually considered me an enemy."

Wang Yao nodded, "What was I supposed to do? Was I supposed to sit and watch while you took my Qing'er?"

Ye Tian Yun rolled his eyes, "See, this is the problem with you. To be fair, we were never supposed to be enemies. Simple misunderstandings caused huge changes in the future. Wang Yao, I was not your love rival but instead your brother-in-law."

"What?" Wang Yao was shocked, "How could that be possible?"

Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "Well, this was the truth until you came to the Middle Heavens. If you don't remember, your childhood sweetheart had an elder twin sister. She was the one betrothed to me."

"What…" Wang Yao was confused, "My whole life was a lie!?"

Ye Tian Yun laughed and shook his head, "Not really. As I said, this was true and a fact until you came to the Middle Heavens."

"Hm?" Wang Yao frowned, "What happened after that?"

Ye Tian Yun let out a sigh, "The Eldest Princess of the Great Ling Clan… died."

"Oh…" Wang Yao let out a sigh, "I remember that. Qing'er had lost the happiness in her eyes when we first met in the Middle Heavens. That was indeed because of her Elder Sister's death."

Ye Tian Yun nodded, "And her death then led to some… decisions by the elders of the Great Ling Clan. They decided to change the bride and put the Ling Qing in her Elder Sister's place. And that was when you arrived in the Middle Heavens and heard about this 'new' marriage."

"Also, because the old arrangement wasn't public, no one knew about it. That is why you're clueless."

Wang Yao suddenly laughed, "How fate plays with us is incredible. Ye Tian Yun, tell me, what if the Elder Princess of Ling Clan didn't die… would we have remained enemies?"

Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "I don't know. Maybe we will never know."

Wang Yao let out a long breath and said, "Well, now let me get back to the answer. Just a few days before both you and your butler arrived at the Wang Estate, I encountered something very special."

"Hm?" Ye Tian Yun frowned, "What?"

"The Emblem System."

Ye Tian Yun nodded when he heard this answer.

Wang Yao frowned, "Aren't you surprised?"

"I already knew." Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "But tell me, what happened after that?"

Wang Yao smiled, "With the help of the system, I swiftly improved my cultivation and increased my powers. I also made many friends and formed the God's Legion with my closest friends. With the help of the system, I knew the right people to make friends with, and soon, I had a whole group of friends, each with a Token or Emblem of their own. And they were all very loyal to me."

"Slowly, we conquered the Lower Heavens and then ruled over the Middle Heavens."

"Ye Tian Yun, after your death, I was crowned as the ruler of Middle Heavens, and then we all marched to the Upper Heavens. The final step to becoming the Heavenly Emperor."

"It was at this place where things started to go out of my hand. My closest brother, Shi Yan, betrayed me. I became paranoid. I couldn't help but be alert at all times."

"Honestly, I was quite helpless. It was at this moment, the Emblem System suggested something."

"It suggested that I go back in time and change the past."

"As ridiculous as it sounded, it was possible. The Emblem System told me it would take me to the past, where I will be able to make changes and prepare myself for the Upper Heavens."

"But a few things happened, and you got the Emblem System, forcing me to come here and take the system back from you."

Ye Tian Yun frowned, "But you didn't get the system. What were the 'few things' that made you come here?"

Wang Yao thought for a moment and asked, "First, you tell me, how did the Eldest Princess of Ling Clan die? Her death is the trigger of all this."

Ye Tian Yun closed his eyes and let out a sigh. Recalling the memories that he had forever sealed in his mind, he said, "I… killed her."
