Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

"Plans?" Emperor Ye frowned and looked up, "What plans do I need?"

Butler Liu replied, "Your Majesty, what I meant to ask was - are you planning to cancel the engagement?"

Emperor Ye shook his head.

"We can\'t cancel the engagement. I just gave an excuse to Yun\'er that I will look for an alternative way, but we both know that there is no other way around the situation."

"Ling Guang will not allow engagement between Ye Tian Yun and Ling Qing\'er because of her physique."

"That only leaves us with Ling Feng\'er."

Butler Liu frowned, "Actually while returning from the Ling Clan Manor, Crown Prince informed me that he will have to kill Ling Feng\'er in future if the marriage continues."

"Oh?" Emperor Ye frowned, "Did he say why?"

Butler Liu shook his head, "No, but he said he will have no other option."

"Hm," Emperor Ye thought for a moment and said, "The best thing we can do is try to avoid this on that eventful day. Other than that, there\'s nothing we can do."

Butler Liu let out a sigh, "Also, Crown Prince will soon be heading back to the Lower Heavens."

Emperor Ye nodded, "That was expected. The chances of encountering a Token or an Emblem are pretty high in the Lower Heavens."

Butler Liu frowned, "But Your Majesty, I am afraid if something happens to the Crown Prince, we won\'t be able to go to save him."

Emperor Ye took a deep breath and let out a sigh, "Brother Liu, there are a lot of things that Yun\'er must face on his own. I have never interfered in his cultivation path, and I most likely never will."

"But Your Majesty, what if the Crown Prince\'s life is in danger?" Butler Liu asked, "You won\'t let him die just like that, right?"

Emperor Ye took the seat at the table and leaned back.

"Brother Liu," He said, "I won\'t let him die, don\'t worry about that. He\'s my son; of course, I will be biased towards him. And I think, with his power and intelligence, only an unexpected ambush can take him down. And I won\'t let that happen."

Butler Liu smiled, "I knew it."

Emperor Ye had a serious expression, "There\'s something much more interesting you need to look at."

"Oh?" Butler Liu frowned and stepped forward.

He then began to browse through the papers on the table.

Soon his eyes were wide open in shock as he stared at the papers in front of him.

"Is this true!?" He asked, almost shouting.

Emperor Ye pursed his lips and lightly nodded.

"Damn it!" Butler Liu punched on the wall beside them, "How long do we have?"

Emperor Ye shrugged, "I have no idea. But there\'s a high chance it will happen this month."

Butler Liu frowned, "I planned to drop Ye Tian Yun to his destination in the Lower Heavens one week later."

Emperor Ye frowned, "Why one week later? Tell him to go tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?" Butler Liu thought for a moment and said, "I will inform him immediately."

Emperor Ye nodded his head, "Alright. Oh, this reminds me, what happened to the group you went to call from the Lower Heavens? I think this \'thing\' is very suitable for them."

Butler Liu smiled, "I have already informed Su Ming from the Fifth Battalion."

"Oh? The brat that you saved in the Lower Heavens?" Emperor Ye frowned, "He\'s a Commander now?"

Butler Liu smiled, "That guy is a good leader, and his nature is also good."

Emperor Ye nodded, "That\'s great. What does he do in the Lower Heavens? Is he a reclusive cultivator?"

"Quite the opposite, " Butler Liu smiled, "He\'s actually a Sect Leader of one of the powerful sects called the Gracious Sword Sect."

Emperor Ye smiled, "That\'s good. So, his battalion will be heading to the Upper Heavens this time?"

Butler Liu nodded, "Yes, and I will also personally go with them. From these reports, we can see that ever since the first Emblem appeared in this generation, the enemy has shown too many activity signs."

Emperor Ye nodded, "Yes, that\'s what intrigues me so much. It feels like I am missing some important info here. Those people in the Upper Heavens don\'t need to be worried about the Emblems. Then why is it that they have started to make a move ever since that day?"

"What if it\'s just a coincidence? Or it could be a ruse?" Butler Liu frowned.

Emperor Ye nodded, "I thought of that too, but then don\'t you know what happened in the Heavenly Oracle Sect?"

Butler Liu was surprised, "Don\'t tell me the change of Head Elder was because of those people?"

Emperor Ye nodded, "I am afraid that\'s the truth. I was already quite suspicious of the Heavenly Oracle Sect, but now I am sure they are our hidden enemy."

Butler Liu frowned, "But are we sure about this? You know that it\'s them who gave all the fame to the Crown Prince. Don\'t tell me they have something bad planned about this?"

Emperor Ye shrugged, "I don\'t know yet, but I am pretty sure they don\'t have any good thoughts."

"Should we do something about them?" Butler Liu said, "We can always kill them? The Heavenly Oracle Sect won\'t stand a chance against the Great Ye Corps."

Emperor Ye smirked, "That\'s true, but the Heavenly Oracle Sect is just a pawn in this game. Bringing out our trump card just for them will be an overkill."

"So we should leave them be?"

"No," Emperor Ye shook his head, "Ye Tian Yun will be going to the Lower Heavens, right?"

"Yes," Butler Liu nodded.

Emperor Ye smiled, "I am sure he won\'t return for some time. And once he returns, a huge responsibility will come on his shoulders. I don\'t want those pesky sects to be a nuisance for him. Ask Fifth Battalion Commander Su Ming to go alone and take care of the Heaven Oracle Sect. That kid alone is enough for this."
