Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Ye Tian Yun was surprised, "They are related? Are you sure? There can be hundreds of Yuan Clans in the Lower Heavens." 

He was not surprised to find the connection between Yuan Xuming and Yuan Shuchun; he already knew about it. As a matter of fact, he knew much more than Jun Xie.

What surprised him was the fact that Jun Xie knew about this.

"I am one hundred percent sure. In fact, I even know that Yuan Shuchun is Sword Saint Yuan Xuming\'s daughter."

"And the reason why she\'s in the Gracious Sword Sect is that she\'s on a mission to the two things her father left her here - The Gracious Sword and the Gracious Sword Manual."

"Just like me, she doesn\'t have any interest in the Sect Leader\'s position. However, to get her hands on the treasures, she must become the Sect Leader of the Gracious Sword Sect."

"That is the only way to get close to those two treasures."

Ye Tian Yun narrowed his eyes before giving a slight smile.

\'I didn\'t expect he would know this much.\'

"Your words sound quite far-fetched. Tell me, what makes you so confident about them?" He asked.

Jun Xie slightly frowned.

After a few minutes, he said, "Well, since I have already told you a lot, I won\'t lose anything if I tell you a few more things."

"Do you remember what I did when I came to the banquet last month?" 

Ye Tian Yun scratched his chin, "Other than being annoying? Well, you were flexing your illusion techniques."

Jun Xie nodded, "That\'s it. Now you have the answer."

"Hm?" Ye Tian Yun frowned, "You used an illusion technique to spy on Yuan Shuchun?"

Jun Xie nodded his head with a smug expression.

Ye Tian Yun gave him a look of disdain, "Do you what do we call people like you?"

"What?" 

"Perverts."

"Wha-what? How am I a pervert? I only spied during the meetings."

Ye Tian YUn shrugged, "You\'re just a stalker in my eyes."

"What? Ddue, don\'t joke around like that."

Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "Nevermind, so tell me, how did you spy? Hide yourself in an illusion?"

Jun Xie nodded, "Yeah, it wasn\'t hard. I am surprised Yuan Shuchun never had an anti-illusion setup. With her background and helpers, I am sure she could have easily added one in the meeting rooms."

Ye Tian Yun nodded, "Yeah, anti-illusion arrays are pretty important."

"Hm? You\'re saying that?" Jun Xie gave him a weird look, "Why didn\'t you tell her during all these years when you have been with her."

"Well, honestly, it never crossed anyone\'s mind. So you were there in all the meetings?"

Jun Xie shrugged, "Not all. Just a lot of them."

Ye Tian YUn sighed, "You\'re indeed a stalker."

Jun Xie rolled his eyes back, "If you were in my position, you would have done the same thing."

Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "I would have gone a step further."

Jun Xie frowned, "What do you mean?"

Ye Tian Yun smirked, "I would have killed the enemy."

"Ha-ha, killed the enemy? Yuan Shuchun is a sect disciple. And you\'re underestimating the Gracious Sword Sect\'s power."

"What do you mean?" Ye Tian Yun frowned, "Our sect is just an average sect. No way I would believe that we\'re actually a hidden powerhouse."

Jun Xie shook his head, "Well, not a powerhouse, but you can say that our sect had a pretty complicated structure."

"Only those who have been to the core of the sect\'s power structure know of its real capabilities. To the others, the most they know and are afraid about is the GRacious Sword Sword SPirit."

"That entity is the only thing that most of our enemies are afraid of."

Ye Tian Yun scratched his chin, "Jun Xie, do you know Sect Leader Su\'s cultivation?"

Jun Xie frowned and thought for a moment, "Now that I think about it… Sect Leader Su has never showcased his true cultivation."

"But if we take a guess, Sect Leader Su is most probably in the Nascent Soul Real, one realm higher than the Core Formation Realm."

Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "Could be."

\'Well, it\'s impossible to have Sword Domain in the Nascent Soul Realm. A cultivator needs to be at least in the Half Saint Realm. Only supreme geniuses can achieve Sword Domain before Half Saint Realm.\'

Ye Tian Yun didn\'t consider the fact that he himself had reached the Sword Domain, and his cultivation hadn\'t even crossed the Tri-Qi Realms.

However, considering the struggle he had to face just to stabilize his sword domain, it balanced his advantage.

\'This reminds me… I might get a good chance to use the Sword DOmain… should I use it?\'

Ye Tian Yun couldn\'t help but mull over this question.

If he used his Sword Domain, there was a high chance the news would spread throughout the Lower Heavens.

\'Well, I am already in a disguise. As long as I can keep my real identity hidden, there\'s no need to hold myself back. But I will definitely take a few precautions.\'

He then looked at Jun Xie and thought for a moment.

After making up his mind, he asked, "Jun Xie, will you kill Yuan Shuchun if you get a chance?"

"Hm? What?" Jun Xie was a bit stumped at the sudden question.

"Well, I will-!"

*Bang*\'

Before Jun Xie could reply, both of them suddenly felt a jerk and in the next instant, they could feel the carriage flying in the air!

Without hesitation, Ye Tian Yun took out a sword from his spatial ring and slashed it on the carriage wall.

Clenching Jun Xie\'s collar, he jumped out of the carriage.

To his surprise, he was about fifty feet high in the air!

But this wasn\'t the main worry.

The problem was - as soon as he got out of the carriage, he saw thousands of arrows being launched in the air, heading straight towards them!
