Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

The sun had already gone to sleep a few hours ago, and it was now time for the people who were hiding during the daytime to come out.

Silver Mist City, though a small city, was still pretty bustling even during the night.

Though only at the main marketplace, the alleys and a few other places were dead silent, as people were now asleep with their gates closed.

However, this didn\'t prevent any tramps from roaming the city - or thieves from scavenging a house - this was the best time of the day for them.

But it wasn\'t hard to occasionally find a dead silent street.

Jun Xie and Kai Yang had come across many such streets in the last two hours.

They had left the tavern to mark the arrays on the map.

Trying their best not to appear suspicious and blend themselves into the darkness of the night, both of them were slowly covering each street and marking any array that they could come across.

"This net is getting more complicated after every array I mark on the map." Jun Xie whispered while assessing the new array that they had come across.

The net he was referring to was, of course, the array system across the city.

"How did Heaven Oracle Sect make this System?" Kai Yang couldn\'t help but ask.

To be able to use unknown arrays and control them, this is not something even top sects could do - it needed more than just unlimited resources.

"Heaven Oracle Sect can predict the future, and this array is just a small thing to them." Jun Xie shook his head while replying.

"Do you reckon that there could be an elder from the Heaven Oracle Sect in the City? If there is an elder… wouldn\'t he be in the Half Saint Realm!?" Kai Yang\'s tone became erratic by the time it reached the end.

Jun Xie thought for a moment and shook his head, "Most unlikely. This array system is actually given to Core Disciples of the Heaven Oracle Sect - to protect themselves in case of being surrounded by an unknown enemy.

"Oh?" Kai Yang couldn\'t help but ask, "How do you know so much about the Heaven Oracle Sect? I have never heard about such a thing. Is this common knowledge?"

"Hmm, not common knowledge. But as you get higher in the realm of array mastery, a whole new world will open for you. In terms of Arrays, while the Wu Kingdom dominates the Lower Heavens, the Heaven Oracle Sect dominates the whole world."

"Damn," Kai Yang couldn\'t help but sigh, "No wonder they are the top sect in the whole world."

Jun Xie nodded his head, "It\'s not easy to encounter this array system - so it\'s a huge opportunity for me too. If I get to learn something from it, that would be really helpful for my breakthrough to the next stage."

Kai Yang smiled, "Aren\'t you also an alchemist? To also be an Array Master, your Spirit Sense must be heaven-tier or close!"

Jun Xie shrugged, "Not really a heaven-tier, but it\'s pretty good. One of the things I am quite proud of, honestly."

After a moment of pause, he added, "Alright, we\'re done in this part. Let\'s get to the next street. We need to increase our pace, or it will be hard to mark everything by sunrise."

"Alright," Kai Yang nodded his head and followed him.

However, in the next street, they encountered a man lying on the street side.

"Must be a homeless drunk guy," Jun Xie shook his head as he began to assess the array.

But just as they came closer to the man, he suddenly stood up and snarled at them -

"You bastards! How dare you come back!"

Kai Yang frowned, and just as he was about to land a kick on the man\'s face, his next words stopped him.

"Don\'t you dare show your face back to the clan! The Liu Clan doesn\'t need you."

Kai Yang frowned, "This guy... "

Jun Xie, who had been marking the arrays, suddenly froze.

After a moment of silence, he slowly turned his head to the drunk man, and in a trembling voice, he asked, "Wh-what di-did you say!?"

His words got louder by the end.

"Hm? What happened to you, Brother Jun?" Kai Yang asked in confusion.

Earlier, he only stopped because of the mention of the Liu Clan - that was one of the big clans in the Middle Heavens unless this drunkard was talking about some other Liu Clan.

Jun Xie didn\'t seem to hear his doubts; he walked forward, and putting the map back in the spatial ring, Jun Xie bent his knees and sat on his toes - right in front of the drunk man, who had fallen back on the ground after the earlier outburst.

"Which Liu Clan are you talking about?" Jun Xie asked.

He had his guard up - there was a very high chance that this guy could be a part of the Liu Clan from Middle Heavens - then that would mean he had high cultivation.

It was better to be safe than being sorry.

"Hn?" The drunkard raised his head.

His eyes couldn\'t focus on Jun Xie\'s face.

However, after a few moments, the man suddenly got angry once again, "The Capital City Liu Clan, of course!"

\'Oh, so a random clan.\' Jun Xie let out a sigh and stood up.

He should have expected this.

Putting his hand on the pendant around his neck, he couldn\'t help but let out a sigh.

\'Liu\'

The name he had been living with for his whole life.

\'One day, I will definitely get there.\'

Jun Xie took a long breath and turned around.

\'Hn? Where\'s Kai Yang?\' His mind blanked for a second as he looked around in shock.

"Kai Yang!?" Jun Xie immediately called.

"I will join you in a few minutes, you go ahead."

A voice replied.

It was Kai Yang.

"Hm?" Jun Xie frowned, "What…"

Kai Yang seemed to be running in the southern direction, and his voice lowered as the distance between them seemed to grow.

"Weird guy…" Jun Xie shook his head and resumed marking the arrays.
