Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

"You don't know…." Ye TIanYun frowned, "So, you can't help me out in this situation?"

Wang Yao shook his head, "I can't help you with the problems which I myself have not encountered, though I can tell you something."

"The white space… it's an opportunity for you."

"An opportunity?" Ye Tian Yun narrowed his eyes.

Wang Yao nodded, "Yeah, look at you. You have reached the Second Realm of Foundation Establishment in less than four months of time. Isn't that crazy?"

Ye Tian Yun nodded, "It is… but this opportunity came at the wrong time."

Wang Yao smiled, "Maybe. Maybe not. You will understand your situation better if you leave the space."

Ye Tian Yun pursed his lips, "Is there a way to get out of here? If I know about it, my mind will be at ease."

Wang Yao thought for a moment and replied, "I think there is. You just have to 'sense' the Emblem Of Time."

"... "

"What?" 

"What do you think I have been doing all this time?" Ye Tian Yun frowned, "Am I not trying to sense the Emblem Of Time?"

Wang Yao laughed, "Yeah, yeah, you are. But my dear Crown Prince Ye, if it's not working even after putting all your hard work, then it's probably the wrong method."

Ye Tian Yun asked, "The wrong method…? Maybe… but I don't know if it's wrong or not… how do I confirm that?"

Wang Yao shrugged, "The answer is sipping tea in front of you."

Ye Tian Yun frowned, "I don't understand one thing…. What exactly is your aim here? Why would you even help me? We both were destined to be enemies of each other, but here you are, acting so friendly and even helping me… what are you after?"

Wang Yao smiled, "Ye Tian Yun, we may have been enemies, but now, all that is in the past. You killed me; you won. Now, all that remains of me is this small part of consciousness, chained to the Emblem Of Time."

"Honestly, I don't have control over anything here. The only thing I can do is talk to you and help you out. Maybe in the future, you can repay this small debt and help me recover? Once you do that, we will go out separate ways."

Ye Tian Yun smirked, "You took everything from me… there won't be any debt between us."

Wang Yao frowned, "Dude, I also gave you a chance to go through rebirth. You're here because of me."

Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "I am here because the System chose me over you."

Wang Yao rolled his eyes, "System is just a scheming piece of crap. Looks, Ye Tian Yun, we both have the same enemy right now - and if we can work together and put down our differences for once, we will be able to beat the Emblem System."

Ye Tian Yun scratched his chin, "Why should I even bother? I am not the hero here. Why should I even bother with the system?"

Wang Yao frowned, "Don't you want to kill the younger me?"

Ye Tian Yun nodded, "Maybe. Maybe not. Both of us have not met yet. We don't have any enmity. If I go there and treat him like a brother, won't the outcome be different?"

Wang Yao shook his head, "That won't happen. You're forgetting that my younger self has the Emblem System now. He's already a lost cause."

"Hm? Why do you think so?" Ye Tian Yun.

Wang Yao replied with a self-mocking laugh, "Ye Tian Yun, ah, Ye Tian Yun. I know myself better than anyone. In fact, if you hadn't killed me today, I would have died anyway."

"What?" Ye Tian Yun asked, "Elaborate."

Wang Yao said while swirling the spoon in his teacup, "You see, originally, I was supposed to kill you today. After that, I would have gone and waited for an opportunity to get the System from my younger self."

"And when I finally confront myself, the younger self, a stupid idiot, would allow the System to take over his body and fight me."

"Because I had killed you a few months ago, the Heavenly Constraints would tighten their grasp over me, making me even weaker. And now, confronting the System, I would be powerless."

"In the end, the System would kill me, and the Emblem Of Time inside me would go to my younger self."

"Oh…." Ye Tian Yun gave it a long thought and asked, "So this is the unknown encounter through which Wang Yao got the System?"

Wang Yao, "Yes, and I never told about it to anyone else because that would reveal the existence of the system."

Ye Tian Yun frowned, "Yes. But there are still a few loopholes in your story… for example, you have already killed me, then how would I reappear once again and fight for the Heavenly Throne?"

Wang Yao frowned, "I may not know the exact answer, but I do have a very strong guess."

Ye Tian Yun stared at him, "Don't you blame it on the Emblem System…."

Wang Yao coughed, "Ahem, who else could do it? Clearly, the System brought you back, erased your memories related to all this, and put you back in the cycle of time."

Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "Doesn't that mean the System is too powerful? Why will it even need to use others?"

Wang Yao smirked, "No, System is not powerful. It's the Host that judges the System's power and limits. And don't forget who was supposed to kill me. It was the System, in Wang Yao's body."

"This meant, technically, there were two owners of the Emblem Of Time - me and the System itself."

"Now, do you know that every holder of Emblem Of Time gets to have unique abilities? Well, most likely, the System had the ability to get you back in the timeline. After all, you still had a use for being the best stepping stone for the young and naive Wang Yao."
