Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Ye Tian Yun frowned, "His trouble? Hmm, what is it?"

Wang Yao remained silent for a moment and said, "Your little brother is the reason why your father died."

Ye Tian Yun\'s heart trembled upon hearing Wang Yao\'s nonchalant words, "Wh… What do you mean? My father will die?"

Wang Yao nodded, "All this happened long after you were dead."

Ye Tian Yun frowned, "Why…? And how is my brother connected to this?"

Wang Yao shrugged, "I don\'t know about that. I just know that your little brother, the Crown Prince of the Heavens, was one of the biggest catalysts in your father\'s death."

Ye Tian Yun frowned and sat down cross-legged on the surface.

After a long silence, he asked, "I just have one question. Was this guy who you\'re claiming to be my little brother… Will he be directly involved in instigating the death of my father? Or was he forced?"

Wang Yao shook his head, "I already told you, I am not aware of the details."

Ye Tian Yun raised his head with a frown and stared at Wang Yao.

"Why are you telling me this?" Ye Tian Yun asked, "Don\'t tell me you\'re worried about my father because there\'s no way I would believe that nonsense."

Wang Yao lightly nodded, and he, too, sat in front of Ye Tian Yun, cross-legged.

"It\'s true that I am indifferent about whatever happens to your father or you." He said, "I am already dead. I can\'t do anything about that. But there are still people in this world whom I care about."

"Uncle and Aunt?" Ye Tian Yun frowned.

"Yes." Wang Yao nodded, "My parents. They are two of the three people who I care about. And your father\'s death heavily affects their survival."

"Oh? How so?"

"Well, Uncle Ye is the strongest person in the Middle Heavens," Wang Yao said, "And my father, no matter what his history is with uncle ye, he still respects the latter a lot. And in the future, on the day Uncle Ye dies, my father also loses his life. In fact, the whole Great Ye Clan is massacred."

"The whole clan…."

"Yes." Wang Yao nodded, "Your butler Liu was already dead. His son Jun Xie hated the world even more after his father\'s death and gave the secret to trespass the Middle Heavens to the people of the Upper Heavens."

"Hm? Jun Xie?" Ye Tian Yun frowned.

"Yeah," Wang Yao replied, "Well, I will come off clean, just so I don\'t feel like I am trying to fool you."

"Hm? What do you mean?"

"Well, the reason I told you all of a sudden about your brother is not because of the deal. Rather, because I wanted to tell you about the death of my uncle and my father."

"You need to stop your brother. The reason why I said he needs your help is that even though he has the status, he doesn\'t have the talent to stand tall with that status."

"Oh?" Ye Tian Yun frowned, "Is he weak?"

"He\'s a mortal." Wang Yao said, "He can\'t cultivate."

"He can\'t cultivate…." Ye Tian Yun\'s eye twitched, "Then why is he the Crown Prince? Also… you didn\'t answer one of my questions earlier… is my mother in the Upper Heavens?"

Wang Yao nodded, "Don\'t ask me anything related to this. I will just say I don\'t know."

"Then why are you nodding?" Ye Tian Yun frowned.

"Take a hint." 

"Hm? Oh… oh! You mean… she\'s there!" Ye Tian Yun\'s eyes widened.

"I don\'t know." Wang Yao said while continuing to nod.

Ye Tian Yun suddenly frowned, "Wait, you said you couldn\'t name my enemy… and now you aren\'t saying anything about my mother. Is… I mean, are both of them… same?"

Wang Yao shook his head, "I don\'t know."

Ye Tian Yun sighed, "Ah, as long as she\'s not the one trying to kill me, it\'s alright."

Wang Yao pursed his lips and didn\'t say anything.

"Anyway, why is my brother the Crown Prince?" Ye Tian Yun asked, "Are there no voices against him?"

"There are." Wang Yao shrugged, "Didn\'t I say he needs your help? Well, the whole world is against him right now."

"Oh?" Ye Tian Yun frowned, "Then why was he part of the conspiracy to kill my father? One possibility I can think of is that he was used as bait to trick and ambush my father…."

Wang Yao shook his head, "That\'s quite unlikely. Your brother lacks cultivation talent but is one of the most intelligent people in the Upper Heavens. That\'s the reason why he\'s still alive, or else he would have long lost his life."

"Very intelligent?" Ye Tian Yun smiled, "At least he\'s not a complete idiot."

Wang Yao shrugged, "So, you gonna help me with this?"

"Hm?"

"I mean," Wang Yao cleared his throat and said, "I want you to save your father; that will definitely save my father\'s life."

Ye Tian Yun remained silent, and after a few moments, he replied, "We will see how the situation is in the future. Whatever happened earlier was in a different timeline, and now it\'s impossible."

"No," Wang Yao shook his head, "Now it means that it can happen early."

"Early?"

"Yeah," Wang Yao nodded, "You aren\'t playing the part which you were supposed to play. Your enemy always has a backup plan. Even just one of its creations, the system, was able to formulate a grand scheme. Do you think they don\'t have a backup plan in case the time-loop broke?"

Ye Tian Yun was surprised, "What? Really?"

Wang Yao nodded, "Of course. Your enemy is not only the strongest in terms of strength, but it\'s also a master of calculative strategies."

Ye Tian Yun frowned, "But… How would he predict this? How would they know what would happen? I guess I need to be more careful now… I don\'t want to end up getting played into their palm like Wang Yao… I mean, the other Wang Yao."

Wang Yao nodded, "Hmm, I know. You definitely don\'t want things to turn out like this."

Ye Tian Yun nodded, and suddenly, a question popped up in his head, "Wasn\'t that Wang Yao alive at that time? He did not do anything in our fathers\' situation?"

Wang Yao shrugged, "Well, he did help, but not the Great Ye Clan."
