Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

After what seemed like a second, but in reality, it was fifteen minutes. Madam Xin couldn't hold herself back, and she jumped into Sect Leader Su's embrace.

This was a reunion after sixteen long years!

"I missed you so much."

She felt a lump in her throat as her eyes became moist.

Excitement, relief, satisfaction, happiness, content, pleasure, elation…

Tens of emotions welled up in her head as Sect Leader Su tightened the embrace.

"Me too. I missed you more with every passing second." Sect Leader Su whispered in her ears, "Your smell, your breath, your heartbeat… I missed your whole existence."

Both of them were unwilling to leave the embrace, but in the end, they had to.

Sect Leader Su moved his hands, and putting his hand on Madam Fang Bai's chin, he raised and leaned forward.

His lips were sweet; her lips were soft and pillowy against his.

It was like opening up their soul, tasting, feeling, and seeing every color of the rainbow in their own sensual way, almost like catching a smile in a bottle, its softness, its sweetness.

It was a passionate kiss.

Parting the lips was harder than separating the embrace, but they had to because by now, they were attracting too much attention.

"I have a lot to say." Madam Fang Bai smiled, "And lots of questions."

Sect Leader Su smiled, "Speak your mind, I have all the time in the world for you."

"Hur hur, still the same sweet talker," Madam Fang Bai lightly punched his chest and then moved to take a seat.

"How have you been these years?" She asked, "Life must have been hard on you."

"Yes," Sect Leader Su didn't hide anything, "But I kept myself distracted with work and cultivation."

"Hm, I heard about your distraction, hmph!" 

"What have you heard?" Sect Leader Su smiled, "Don't tell me you believe in those rumors your brother spread."

"What do you think?"

"You would never." The smile on Sect Leader Su widened, "You would never believe such rumors."

"Hn, that's right. You're lucky to have such a good wife."

"Indeed I am, hahaha."

"Husband," Madam Fang Bai said, "I never believed those rumors because I know you're not such a man. If only we were a bit more talented, maybe we wouldn't have to be separated from each other for long."

"Sigh," Sect Leader Su exhaled, "I don't want to hide anything from you, but I am powerful enough to level the whole country. However, I was bound by my duties and had no choice but to remain low and act indifferent to the whole situation."

"...what?" Madam Fang Bai was surprised, "What is your cultivation now?"

"It's pretty high," Sect Leader Su smiled, "It's higher than Half-Saint."

"Really?" She was surprised, "Then why didn't you visit me? You know I couldn't leave the capital. With your cultivation, was it hard to secretly visit me?"

"I didn't always have the ability." Sect Leader Su said, "Actually, when I returned from the Middle Heavens, I was in a heavily injured state, and my cultivation has regressed back to the Nascent Soul Realm. It was only two months ago that I got the chance to recover my cultivation."

"What… how did you injure yourself?" Madam Fang Bai asked in a worried tone.

"It was related to one of the missions my master gave me. It was supposed to be a normal mission, but someone leaked the information, and we ended up facing the whole Upper Heavens."

"What? How did you get out of that situation!?" Madam Fang Bai's face turned pale.

"It was my master."

"Your master? But isn't he…."

"No, not my master from the sect," Sect Leader Su shook his head, "It's the one from the Middle Heavens."

"Middle Heavens?"

"Yes." He nodded, "That year, your brother supposedly killed me when I tried to meet Fang Chen, but fate had other plans, and I was rescued by one of the most powerful people in the whole Middle Heavens, and he took me under his wing."

"Who is he?" She asked.

"He's an expert surnamed Liu. He's actually from the Upper Heavens, but at that time, he was in the Lower Heavens to find someone."

"Oh?" Madam Fang was intrigued by the story, "Who was he looking for?"

"Empress of the Great Ye Empire."

"Empress Ye?" Madam Fang widened her eyes, "Why was he looking for her? Wait… don't tell me their case is similar to ours…"

"No, no." Sect Leader Su shook his head, "It's quite the opposite. Actually, that man is a very close friend of Emperor Ye Tian Xuan, and in those days, Empress Ye had suddenly disappeared. So he was in the Lower Heavens to look for clues when he encountered me."

"In the end, he found nothing related to the Empress, but he took me to the Middle Heavens. There, he nursed me and helped me reach the cultivation realm I have today.

"After I had recovered, I had two choices, to return or to grow stronger in the Middle Heavens. I chose the obvious. I joined Emperor Ye's army, the Great Ye Corps. And within two years, I became one of the core figures and commander of one of the most powerful battalions."

"Wow…" An expression full of pride formed on Madam Xin's face.

"Hehe, it's nothing to be surprised about," Sect Leader Su smiled, "There are many battalions. I just got lucky.

"Well, anyway, the army was in the Upper Heavens, mainly because there was information that Empress Ye was held captive in the most powerful organization within the Upper Heavens."

"What…. Really? But why?"

"No one knows, but honestly, this was just half true."

"Half true?"

"Yes." Sect Leader Su sighed, "And we found the real truth in my last mission. My battalion's objective was to infiltrate the enemy and find the real truth, but as soon as we reached the objective, we were ambushed by the whole Upper Heavens."

"It was only because of Emperor Ye, Heavenly King Wang, Heavenly King Ling, and General Liu's intervention that we were able to get out of the situation. But the reinforcements came a bit late, and I was quite injured by then."

"Aish… why did you go on such an important mission?" Madam Fang Bai frowned, "And why did Emperor Ye not heal you? What was he doing for the last sixteen years?"
