Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

"Who... who are you?" Gao Suyin gulped as she stared at the middle-aged man standing with his hands behind his back.

"That's what I should ask," The middle-aged man spoke. His voice carried a pressure, and the aura around him gave off an air of nobility.

"I am… I am Yin Su." Gao Suyin lied.

"Yin Su?" The middle-aged man smiled, "Or is it… Gao Suyin?"

A flash of shock passed through her expression before she regained her composure and frowned, "Who?"

"Gao Suyin." The middle-aged paused for a moment and continued, "Holder of the Token of Reality."

"You…" This time the shock in her eyes couldn't remain hidden. After a moment of thought, she removed the facade and accepted her identity. Her expression turned serious as a spear appeared in her hands.

With a heavy tone, she asked while taking a fighting stance, "Who are you?"

Her actions amused the middle-aged. "Child, you're a hundred years too early to challenge me. As for my name… you can call me Third Prince Ye."

Gao Suyin frowned, "Third Prince Ye…?"

Is he from the Great Ye Clan? Impossible!

"How are you related to Ye Tian Yun?" She asked with a careful tone and carefully watched the man's expression.

Third Prince Ye's smile receded a little, "How do you know Ye Tian Yun? He's not someone you would have met."

"What is it to you?" Gao Suyin tightened her grip over the spear, "Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun is a well-known figure, who has heard of the Great Ye Clan but hasn't heard of him?"

Third Prince Ye slightly nodded, "Indeed. Anyway, we're not here to introduce ourselves. Tell me, Gao Suyin, how did you enter the Nine Heavens Continent?"

Gao Suyin frowned but remained silent.

Third Prince Ye stared at her, and after a long silence, he spoke again, "Consider this my first and last working, Gao Suyin. Now, tell me how you entered the Nine Heavens Continent and possessed this body?"

"I… don't know." She replied, "I was in a battle, but just then, I woke up to find myself inside someone else's body. It took me a few days before I could get used to this new world, and trust me. I have been looking for ways to get out of this world and go back to Earth."

Third Prince Ye narrowed his eyes, and the pressure Gao Suyin was feeling suddenly increased by a few notches, "How do you possess the Token of Reality then? This is something which belongs to the Nine Heavens Continent."

"The Token of Reality…" Gao Suyin pursed her lips, "It's the reason why I was in the battle. I received it by clearing an S Rank dungeon, but somehow, the major powers on the Earth became aware of its presence and abilities. They did everything they could to snatch it from me, but I somehow always escaped.

In the end, they began to openly attack, which soon led to an all-out war between my guild and them, but in that war—!"

"Wait." The middle-aged interrupted and narrowed his eyes at her, "Are you… the Empress?"

"Hm?" Gao Suyin frowned, "That's a title I haven't heard for a year…."

A smile appeared on Third Prince Ye's face, "This is interesting. Very interesting."

"How do you know me?" She asked, "You must also know a lot about the Earth then. Do you know a way to go back to that planet?"

Third Prince Ye slightly nodded, "There are a few ways. But with your current strength, you don't even have the right to know about them."

Gao Suyin took a deep breath, "Which cultivation realm is enough for that then?"

"Saint."

"Saint Realm…." Gao Suyin nodded as a determined expression formed on her face, "I will get there one day."

The middle-aged man smiled and simply shook his head before asking, "Now, little girl, tell me why are you at this place? With your current strength, you were simply serving yourself to the Burning Wolf King on a silver platter."

Gao Suyin frowned, "It's a Soul Gate. In my last moments on Earth, I was in a dungeon, and then I woke up in the Nine Heavens Continent in someone else's body. Since then, I have been looking for a way to find a Soul Gate to get into a dungeon. Maybe there's a way to  get back to Earth."

Third Prince Ye frowned, "why are you so eager to go back to Earth? Won't you be hunted and killed again?"

Gao Suyin frowned, "That's none of your business."

The Third Prince Ye shrugged, "Fair enough. Well, the reason I came here is that you entered the dungeon. But before I could reach here, your party was full - that meant, no one else could enter the dungeon."

"The minimum criteria for a party is two hunters. I only see you alone… where is the second hunter?"

Gao Suyin pursed her lips, "I don't know."

"You don't know?" Third Prince Ye frowned, "You both were able to kill the Burning Wolf King… I am sure he's at least in the Peak Foundation Establishment Realm. How come he failed to come out? Did the Scorching wolves take him out?"

"I… don't know." Gao Suyin lowered her head. She was now truly worried about Ye Tian Yun's well-being.

'He came in to find me… I hope he's safe….'

Third Prince Ye stared at her for a moment and said, "Let's go in."

"Hm?" as Gao Suyin stood there, the middle-aged man approached and went past her.

As for the buried, which was earlier blocking her, it disappeared as if it never existed.

"This…"

She was confused.

"Why are you not following?" Third Prince Ye paused his steps and then went through the soul gate.

Gao Suyin hesitated for a moment and then stepped towards the Soul Gate, and then, taking a deep breath, she went through it.

There are many questions yet to be answered, especially how this mysterious Third Prince Ye was able to see through her disguise and even knew her identity.

Still, the most important right now for her was Ye Tian Yun's whereabouts.
