Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Ye Tian Yun frowned, "What\'s there to be happy about?"

Prime Minister fang sneered, "Didn\'t you wish to cancel the marriage? Now it\'s done."

Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "I never cared about the marriage. What I want is the Thunder Valley. And even if I get the Thunder Valley, it won\'t be the end of the story. There\'s still a long way to go for me."

Prime Minister Fang let out a sigh, "Xiao Chen, do what you want now. This whole matter has created enough troubles for me."

Ye Tian Yun frowned, "What troubles?"

"To start with, there\'s King Xin. He doesn\'t like the Gao Clan, and with the current situation, he must be aware of us getting close to them, even though he doesn\'t know the reason behind it. Then there\'s the Crown Prince.. That brat is still very young, but he\'s ambitious. He will use this opportunity to strike hard."

Ye Tian Yun frowned, "A few more months, and everything will change."

"Oh?" Prime Minister Fang frowned, "Do what you want. I will be busy for the next few months. Also, focus on cultivation if you want to participate in the Grand Spirit Hunt."

Ye Tian Yun nodded.

…

About ten minutes later, the Fang Couple and Ye Tian Yun came out of the study and headed for the dining hall.

"Big brother!"

As soon as Ye Tian Yun stepped into the room, a cheerful voice called, and a small body ran towards him.

This was Fang Ning, Fang Chen\'s younger sister.

As soon as she reached YeTian YUn, she jumped and gave a tight hug.

But just as she was about to land on Ye Tian Yun, a huge hand appeared in front of her and took a hold of her face.

"Ah!" 

She was left hanging in the air.

"Fang Chen!" 

Madam Fang turned around to see the horrifying scene, "What are you doing!? Is this how you treat your sister!?"

Ye Tian Yun frowned and moved his hand, putting Fang Ning back on the ground.

"Sorry, that was out of instinct."

Fang Ning stood frozen as her eyes slowly began to water up.

Ye Tian Yun frowned but forced his expression to turn normal, and then with a stiff smile, he said, "Sorry… sister, it was my fault."

"Hmph!" Tears began to well up in Fang Ning\'s eyes as she bloated her expression into a pout.

Ye Tian Yun smiled and gave her a pat on her head, headed for the dining table.

The others were speechless by the sudden turn of events.

"Ah, stupid big brother! I will never talk to big brother! Hmph!"

Fang Ning stomped her feet and took her seat on the dining table.

Madam Fang smiled at this.

\'EVen though this lass is angry at her big brother, she will still sit beside him.\'

The dining table was pretty huge, and only the core members of the clan were allowed to sit there.

The core members included the direct members of the clan - the Fang siblings.

This was Ye Tian Yun\'s first time on the dining table with \'family members\', literally.

In the Middle Heavens, Emperor Ye had always been busy, and for some reason, he had given a whole palace to Ye Tian Yun.

Thus, Ye Tian Yun always ate alone at the dining table.

\'I shouldn\'t get too attached.\'

Ye Tian Yun frowned and omitted the unnecessary thoughts.

At the end of the day, he was still a human, and if he got attached to the Fang Clan, he was afraid of drowning in guilt since he was not their son but the one who killed their son.

Ye Tian Yun didn\'t speak and continued on the empty plate.

The food was yet to be served because the remaining four people were yet to arrive in the dining hall.

Just then, faint footsteps were heard, and soon a couple entered the room.

Fang Ji and his wife.

And soon, Fang Yunru also entered.

He remained silent and took a seat.

Fang Ji and Fang Yuan sat beside each other and chatted about political matters.

Madam Fang and Second Madam weren\'t seated at the table. They were rather standing and serving the family members.

The Fang Clan, even though it had a lot of servants, didn\'t have cooks for the core members of the family.

Not that there was someone who could stopping them; rather, the MAdams to Fang Clan preferred to cook the food themselves.

Even Madam Fang, Xin Xue Yan, learned to cook after coming to the Fang Clan.

Click!

Just then, the second door to the hall was pulled open, and the last member of the family entered.

Fang Bai, Fang Chen\'s birth mother.

She didn\'t say anything and simply took her seat.

The remaining breakfast was uneventful, and things only kicked off once everyone was done with their meal.

"Xiao Chen, let\'s go."

Fang Yunru called Ye Tian Yun outside.

Ye Tian Yun smiled and followed him; the others from the table also followed.

Everyone reached the practice grounds in Fang Yunru\'s courtyard.

Ye Tian Yun frowned upon seeing this but didn\'t say anything.

However, Fang Ji had already noticed his expression.

"Xiao Chen, whatever be the outcome, we don\'t want outsiders to know of the result," He said, "No matter what disagreement we have, to the people of the Capital City, the Fang Clan muse stand together."

Ye Tian Yun didn\'t react and stepped on the practice area.

Fang Yunru and he stood in front of each other by fifteen steps.

"Xiao Chen, we will use wooden swords."

Fang Yunru took out a wooden sword and threw it towards Ye Tian Yun.

"Use everything you got," Fang Yunru took a deep breath and formed a fighting stance.

Ye Tian Yun smiled, "If I use everything, it won\'t end well for you. As for this sword," Staring at the sword, he smiled and added, "I don\'t need it."

Fang Yunru frowned, "My father always says there\'s a thin line between confidence and conceited arrogance. Only those who understand the difference reach the peak."

Siu!

Without waiting for any response, Fang Yunru moved and slashed his wooden sword at Ye Tian Yun.

Ye Tian Yun smiled, and just as Fang Yunru was about to reach him, he raised his index finger.

Clang!

A sharp noise resounded, and dust rose from the ground.

Prime Minister Fang frowned upon seeing the scene. He moved his hand, and the dust flew away.

"This…"

All five witnesses were shocked upon seeing the scene.

In front of them, Fang Yunru was trying to push back Ye Tian Yun with his sword. However, Ye Tian Yun was standing carefree with one hand behind his back and the other raised in front of him.

The sound had come from the clash between Fang Yunru\'s sword and Ye Tian Yun\'s hand; to be more precise, it was Ye Tian Yun\'s index finger.

"It\'s futile," Ye Tian Yun smiled and pressed back.

Boom!

Fang Yunru was thrown backward.

He stumbled and balanced himself.

"You…"

He raised his head and stared at Ye Tian Yun in shock.

"Sword Intent!"

The Fang Brothers watching on the sidelines spoke in unison.

\'Sword Intent…\'

Fang Yunru mouthed these words and lowered his sword.

Ye Tian Yun also lowered his finger.

The duel, which was supposed to be one-sided, ended up one-sided, but for the wrong person.

Plop!

Fang Yunru fell on his butt and lowered his head.

Ye Tian Yun frowned.

\'Did this battle give him a big blow?\'

He was not expecting this.

To him, win or lose is a part of life. (Even though he had never lost, except against God\'s Legion, of course.)

"What happened?"

Ye Tian Yun frowned and, in the next instant, appeared in front of Fang Yunru.

"Xiao Chen, when did you learn Sword Intent?" He asked.

Ye Tian Yun smiled, "I was lucky. Now stand up, don\'t be so down. This is not the end of the world."

He moved his hand and raised it in front of him.

Fang Yunru raised his head and stared at the hand.

After a few moments of silence, he took hold of Ye Tian Yun\'s hand and stood up.

"I will step back," Fang Yunru said, "I won\'t interfere in the Grand Spirit Hunt, but you will have to promise me one thing."

Ye Tian Yun asked, "And that is?"

"Teach me Sword Intent."

Ye Tian Yun smiled, "Didn\'t I just say I was lucky?"

Fang Yunru shook his head, "It wasn\'t fully luck. I have reached the Manifestation REalm of Sword Intent, but you\'re clearly at the Attainment Realm. It\'s just a matter of time before you reach the Sword Domain realm."

"That means you will soon become a Sword Saint." Someone added.

It was Fang Bai.

Everyone else had also stepped forward and reached the two of them.

\'Sword Saint…\'

Ye Tian Yun smiled. 

"It\'s still a long journey." He replied.

Fang Bai had a proud expression on her face, "I believe you will achieve it."

"Haha, big brother sure will!" Fang Ning shouted.

She had already forgotten about her anger.

Prime Minister Fang also nodded, "Good, very good."

Fang Ji squinted his eyes at Ye Tian Yun and said, "Xiao Chen, you should have told us about this. I wouldn\'t have doubted you. Anyway, I look forward to seeing Gao Kang\'s regretful expression."

"Yes!" Madam Fang nodded, "How dare he underestimate my son!? Who does he think he is? Hmph! My son isn\'t what he used to be!"

Ye Tian Yun smiled. He didn\'t care about trivial matters.

He had decided to reveal his Sword Intent because he needed Fang Clan to have some confidence in him.

"Xiao Chen, what is your cultivation realm?"

Fang Yunru asked.
