Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Everything that transpired in the Royal Courtroom soon became public.

The citizens were shocked by King Xin's decree and the decision to have Crown Prince Xin lead the war on frontlines.

This was no different from sentencing him to death.

War in the cultivation world was not a small deal.

Especially because of the cultivation level differences among the troops.

The atmosphere in the whole kingdom was getting heavier with the passing of each day.

However, for Ye Tian Yun, this news came as a pleasant surprise.

"It feels like I am getting everything served on a silver platter…"

Ye Tian Yun had underestimated the reaction from the Wu Kingdom after getting the news about Wu Qingwu's death.

Even in the reports, Wu Qingwu was mentioned. And Fu Kai must have also confirmed her death when inquired about the details of everything that had happened during the Silver Mist City incident.

What the whole world didn't know was that the trigger of all the chaos that was about to begin was still alive and was now a maid for a Core Disciple in one of the major sects of the Xin Kingdom.

Before heading to meet with the Sect Leader, Ye Tian Yun had suggested to Wu Qingwu not to come with them. He didn't wish for any complication to arise, just in case.

Taking a light breath, Ye Tian Yun stood up from his place and walked out of the cultivation abode.

It had been about ten days since the Silver Mist City incident, and Ye Tian Yun was now waiting for someone's visit.

'Four more days and Butler Liu will arrive. I wonder if Jun Xie will come to me before that, or will he continue to hesitate?'

Ye Tian Yun opened the door of his cultivation abode and walked outside.

His cultivation was now reaching close to the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

"I need to practice my Sword Domain."

This was one of the main priorities Ye Tian Yun had in his mind.

'I hope I get-!"

[[ Disciples of Gracious Sword Sect! ]]

A loud voice entered everyone's ears suddenly, startling them.

Before anyone could react, it came once again.

[[ We are sad to share the news that our beloved [family member] has passed away. Last [day of week], [he/she] left this earth, and with heavy hearts, we will be holding a memorial for [him/her]. Please grace us with your company at [place] on [date] at [time]. ]]

[[ I am your Sect Leader, Su Ming. I have a few things to share with all the cultivators who are part of our great sect. ]]

[[ First of all, representing the whole sect, I am saddened to share the news that our beloved Seventh Peak Master Duan Ming has passed away. About ten days ago, while on an important mission, he left us behind forever. With heavy hearts, we will be holding a memorial for him. Please grace us with a two-minute silence for his sacrifice.]]

The sudden news shocked everyone in the sect except for the very few who were aware of the happening in the Silver Mist City.

Ye Tian Yun pursed his lips and remained still outside his cultivation abode.

He remembered Peak Master Duan's willingness to sacrifice his own life to defend against an attack from Wang Yao.

'Peak Master Duan, we may have started on the wrong page, but you will always be one of my allies, forever.'

After about two minutes, Sect Leader Su's words once again rang throughout the nine peaks.

[[ The Seventh Peak Master Duan will be forever remembered in our hearts for his values and sacrifice for the sect.]]

[[ Now, the next news is about the Grand Spirit Hunt.]]

As soon as the disciples heard the last three words, their ears perked up.

[[ You all may have heard about the rumors of its postponement in the last few days. And there is another rumor going on of war between the Xin Kingdom and the Wu Kingdom.]]

[[ I am here to tell you that both are true to their facts, and both of them are related to each other. The reason why this Grand Spirit Hunt is postponed is because of the War. For the next six months, a lot is about to happen, which will inadvertently change the power structure of the Lower Heavens. In fact, the whole Grand Spirit Hunt might get canceled or postponed even more. We never know.]]

[[ This is why I am announcing that the lockdown on the sect is now lifted from this moment. I want all the disciples to prepare themselves. There is a highly likely chance that our whole sect might get embroiled in the upcoming war, though I will do my best not to let the dirt fall on us and our cultivation not be disturbed.]]

[[ As for the Seventh Peak's new Peak Leader, it will be Elder Cao. He will succeed Peak Master Duan's position.]]

[[ There are few more minor announcements, you can have a look at them on the floor in the Mission Hall.]]

[[Cultivate well.]]

And with that, silence descended once again on the whole Gracious Sword Sect.

But it only lasted for a few seconds before the whole sect was buzzing with disciple's talking and chatting about the sudden news of Seventh Peak Master Duan's unexpected demise and other announcements.

Even the disciples who were cultivating in seclusion came out.

Though most of them had irritated expressions because the Sect Leader's words had shocked them, some were even injured because of the sudden obstruction.

Ye Tian Yun frowned lightly upon hearing the news related to the Grand Spirit Hunt.

'They might cancel the event? No… that won't be good. The Grand Spirit Hunt must happen, or I will lose an Emblem!'

'I need to get to the Capital City first. Only then will I be able to do something about this situation. I will have to join the war anyway. It's just here earlier than expected. It's time to rearrange my priorities and take the first step of my plan.'

'It's time to injure myself.'
