Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

In the Capital City of the Xin Kingdom, the most renowned names in the younger generation were of three peoples.

Fang Yunru. Ling Yun. Gao Xuan.

All three of them had prominent backgrounds and huge cultivation potential. But a mountain can only have one tiger, and with the history of their clans, all three of them became rivals from birth.

The three of them competed to become the most talented cultivator of their generation, and they even clashed amongst themselves to gain Princess Xin Xue Qing's attention.

Young Master Gao Xuan and Young Master Ling Yun were even considered love rivals because of the lengths they went to win Princess Xin Xue Qing's heart.

However, this was a piece of year-old news.

Today, the three young masters rarely encountered each other. While Young Master Fang Yunru was busy with his sect, Young Master Ling Yun was busy learning Array Formations.

As for Young Master Gao Xuan, he rarely made an appearance in public.

It was said that after the incident which caused the Second Young Master of Gao Clan, Gao Long to turn into a cripple, the Fourth Young Master, Gao Xuan, had to take the reins and was now busy handling clan matters.

As for the pursuing Princess Xin, there were many other Young Masters of different clans, though very few could be compared to the Three Young Masters.

Fang Yunru was part of the Blazing Dragon Sect, and Ling Yun was part of the Alchemy Hall.

Gao Xuan didn't belong to any sect because of his busy schedule.

While others were only aware of his duties related to the clan, only a trusted few knew his ambition to establish an information network.

He would be working hard to make this dream a possibility if it was a regular day, but today was different.

Things were going downhill exercise his meeting with Ye Tian Yun last night.

The first thing which troubled him was that the array system at the roof was malfunctioning. This was the reason why Ye Tian Yun was even able to enter the room without any prior warning.

And when he told his brother and his Father about the deal, the whole talk ended up in an argument.

Not because he failed to convince his Father, but because of what his Father asked at the end.

"Let's go to the Fang Clan." Clan Head Gao Kang told his SEcond son.

"Right now?" Gao Long asked.

Clan Head Gao Kang shook his head, "No. It's something more important. I got a message from Prime Minister Fang. He wanted to meet me, and I think it's the right time to meet him and fix the bond."

"Fix the bond?" Gao Long frowned, "Father, don't tell me you're still planning to send my sister away?"

Gao Kang pursed his lips, "It's the best decision for her. Also, if you can get well, won't you be here to manage the whole clan?"

Gao Long shook his head and glanced at Gao Xuan; he asked, "Why are you silent? Do you agree with this marriage?"

Gao Xuan closed his eyes and let out a sigh. "I don't have any opinion. Honestly, I don't think this marriage will even work. It might even end up ruining everything. The Fang Clan may seem strong, but they also have a number of enemies, even more than us."

Clan Head Gai Kang frowned, "How is your information network going on?"

"It's… going alright." Gao Xuan asked, "What about it?"

Clan Head Gao let out a sigh, "Will you be able to manage it from anywhere?"

"This…" Gao Xuan pursed his lips, "Father, why are you not giving a good reason behind the marriage? The whole matter just seems to be wasting everyone's time."

Clan Head Gao Kang stared at his sons back and forth, and then after a few more moments of silence, he said, "The Xin Kingdom will go through a big change in the coming months. And I don't want to place all my bets in one faction."

"What do you mean?" Gao Xuan and Gao Long leaned forward to listen carefully.

"My meaning is pretty simple," He exhaled, "This marriage is important for the survival of our clan. Even if Xiao Long receivers, it will take him about five to ten years to handle the whole clan. And don't you know about my injury? We have five years at most. We can't contend against the Xin Clan in Five Years."

The Gao Brothers turned silent.

What their Father just said was indeed true.

Even though Gao Xuan was confident that he would succeed, he wasn't sure how long it would take.

Creating an information network within the city alone took him almost a whole year. Even now, his entire organization was very weak.

Xin Royal Clan is a behemoth that no other clan in the Kingdom can even compare to.

"Father, will this marriage secure our clan's future?" Gao Long asked.

Clan Head Gao Kang closed his eyes, "It's our biggest chance and also the gamble with the highest chance to succeed."

"But Father, didn't brother say that the Sect Leader of the Gracious Sword Sect also has a solution for us?" Gao Long asked.

"Yes, Second Brother, he did," Gao Xuan added, "But for that pill, you will have to visit the Middle Heavens personally, and that can only happen if we have a peak Nascent Soul cultivator with us."

"Ah," Clan Head Gao Kang let out a sigh, "If only I hadn't gotten injured, maybe our clan wouldn't have declined to such a state."

Gao Xuan stepped forward, and then putting his hands around his Father's shoulders, he said, "Don't worry about it, father. We still have hope. If Brother can be cured, things might get back on track before we think."

Clan Head Gao Kang exhaled, "Let's not hurry and head to the Fang Clan right now. We will go there in the evening."

"Also, bring that Mo Da guy.. Let him be an apology gift from us to the Fang Clan."
