Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

...

After entering the underground hall, they first headed towards the array mechanism room, which was on the left of the entrance to this hall.

This was the hall where the three elders had supervised the second round of the Inner Court Entrance Hunt which was to hunt down as many Qi Stealing Moles as possible.

As soon as they entered, Kang Ximin turned towards the young man from earlier and said while gesturing with his hand, "Master Qin, please."

Qin Wentian nodded his head and began to inspect the arrays, with his hands behind his back.

They continued to inspect the mechanisms. Suddenly, his eyes stopped at a red button. With a frown, he asked, "What does this button do?"

Sect Leader Su gulped his saliva before replying, "It… It releases the higher tier Qi Stealing Moles."

Qin Wentian smirked as he shrugged at Kang Ximin, who was staring at Sect Leader Su with his eyes wide open.

"So there\'s a button which can release those high-tier Qi Stealing Moles, and you\'re blaming it on the array going crazy!?" Kang Ximin asked, loudly.

Sect Leader Su shook his head, "That bottom is there doesn\'t mean that it\'s for killing our own disciples. It has its own purpose. The array did go out of control that day."

Kang Ximin turned his head towards Qin Wentian who still had a frown on his face. However, he didn\'t pursue this topic and said, "LEt\'s go to the site where Kang Bai and the high tier Qi Stealing Mole fought."

Sect Leader Su nodded and everyone headed inside the maze where the disciples had once fought the Qi Stealing Moles for their beast cores.

After a few minutes, they had soon arrived at the place where Ye Tian Yun had killed Kang Bai and the high tier Qi Stealing Mole.

Just as they were about to reach the exact spot, Qin Wentian suddenly raised his hand and said, "Everyone stop!"

Sect Leader Su turned towards him with a questioning look on his face, however, Qin Wentian didn\'t reply but stared straight at the broken wall of the maze.

He stepped forward, gesturing with his hand to everyone to remain at their position, he slowly walked towards the broken wall.

With a deep frown on his face, he stared from one corner of the scene to the other.

Pursing his lips he took out a piece of red clothing from his spatial ring and began to scribble some words on it.

Behind him, everyone else was quite confused as to what was going on. 

Sect Leader Su turned towards Kang Ximin with a questioning gaze, who replied with a shrug. 

He himself was quite confused as to what is actually going on in Qin Wentian\'s mind.

On the other hand, after a few minutes, Qin Wentian suddenly stood up and began to pace around from one side to the other.

"Impossible - how could he be here? This is just absurd." He mumbled while continuously shaking his head.

Sect Leader Su asked with a frown, "Who?"

Qin Wentian raised his head and replied, "No, you wouldn\'t know him. Not yet. But why is his aura present here. This is just impossible. Why would he come here?"

Sect Leader said, "Master Qin, if you tell us who you\'re mumbling about, maybe we could be of any help."

Qin Wentian pursed his lips, "Sect LEader Su, tell me, other than the competition which happened here, who else entered this place?"

"No one," Sect LEader Su shook his head, "Only Kang Bai was here after he followed the commotion from the high tier Qi Stealing Mole, and other than him, it was three elders and another core disciple who came to stop the Qi Stealing Mole, but they were too late."

Qin Wentian frowned at the reply, "Who was this core disciple?"

"This core disciple goes by the name Yuan Shuchun."

"What is his cultivation realm?" Qin Wentian asked.

"Yuan Shuchun is in Qi Stabilization Realm, but it\'s a she, not he."

Qin Wentian frowned as he heard the last words from Sect LEader Su, "A girl… that\'s impossible... "

He then began to search for more clues and after a few minutes, shook his head and returned to the group.

"Clan Head Kang, the Gracious Sword Sect is not at fault here, it was Kang Bai\'s own sacrifice that led to this incident."

Everyone was surprised at Qin Wentian\'s judgment. Many wanted to ask how he came to this conclusion, but they didn\'t dare to.

After all, Qin Wentian represented the Heaven Oracle Sect. And no one questions the Heaven Oracle Sect\'s words.

Kang Ximin tightly closed his eyes and pursed his lips. After a few moments, he let out a deep breath and said, "Well, since Master Qin has said it, I have no other choice but to believe in the Gracious Sword Sect."

He then turned towards Sect Leader Su and said, "Brother Su, I hope you can bring me everything that my son has left behind. I would like to take his things back and give him a proper funeral in the clan."

Sect Leader Su nodded with a serious expression and replied, "Yes, Brother Kang, all of nephew Bai\'s belongings are kept carefully with the sect. I will get them for you."

He then gestured to a Core Elder with his hand who then brought out a spatial ring and handed it over to Kang Ximin.

Kang Ximin clenched the ring in his fist and took a deep breath.

A few minutes later, the Kang Clan entourage was heading out of the sect.

The higher-ups of the Gracious sword Sect stared at their back as they left the sect.

Grand Elder Xuan has a big smile on his face. 

When Kang Ximin announced the presence of Qin Wentian from the Heaven Oracle Sect, Grand Elder Xuan had become quite nervous because he knew that there was a huge possibility that the truth might come out and Yuan Shuchun might get into trouble.

Fortunately for him, this meeting turned out to be quite short and went without any major hiccups.

Just as he was lost in his thoughts, Grand Elder Xuan heard, "Wasn\'t this meeting supposed to decide the future of this Kingdom… why do I feel I was expecting too much?"
