Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

"It's not his fault." Sect Leader Su shook his head, "It's his grace that I am even alive today. And let me tell you, the person I call master, General Liu, is also from a clan of powerful alchemists. He tried a lot to help me recover, but it took him sixteen years to find a solution to this. The solution is not ready to be implemented, but there's an emergency, and I have been summoned to the Middle Heavens."

"Wait…" Madam Fang Bai frowned, "YOu're going back to the Middle Heavens!? But what about your condition? Why can't they leave you alone? Have you not sacrificed enough?"

Sect Leader Su smiled, "Don't worry, I will be back soon. I will recover, and I will return, and we will stay together, forever."

"But…"

"Aish, why do you worry so much?" Sect Leader Su smiled, "I was thinking of not telling you about this, but in the end, I just wanted to let it all out. As for my condition, don't worry, I can still force my cultivation to return to its peak, although for just a little time. But I think that will be enough to get out of a desperate situation."

"How long will I have?" Madam Fang Bai's eyes watered, "I have just met you, and you're leaving again… can't you stay here for three more weeks?"

"Aish, you…" Sect Leader Su sighed, "I told you, I will be back. Now tell me, what's with Fang Chen? I heard he got injured when returning from the Sect. Is that true?"

"Yes, he did." Madam Fang Bai nodded, "But he has recovered now. And you're not up to date yet. He's actually getting married."

"What!?" Sect Leader Su frowned, "My son's getting married…. And I am the last person to know…."

Taking a deep breath, he asked, "Who decided upon this marriage?"

"It was my brother."

"What?" Sect Leader Su was irked, "Who is he to decide!? He ruined my life, and now he wants to use my son for his own benefit!?"

"No, it's not like that.…"

"Why are you siding with him? Sect Leader Su frowned, "Fang Chen doesn't even know who his real father is… and now he's also getting married. Who will be my Daughter-in-law? She better be a good girl."

"She's a virtuous young lady." Madam Fang Bai smiled, "And my brother is not using Fang Chen. Rather, he's trying to save the whole clan."

Sect Leader Su shook his head, "By ruining my son's life."

"No one is ruining Fang Chen's life. This is all for him." Madam Fang sighed, "Actually, it's King Xin who's the issue here. He's now targeting the Fang Clan."

"Of Course that son of bitch will do that," Sect Leader Su cursed, "He and your brother are the main preparators behind our condition. Actually, it's good. If these two snakes fight each other and die, I won't have to dirty my hands."

"Su Ming!" Madam Fang Bai frowned, "One of them is my brother."

"Sigh, why are you still siding with him?" Sect Leader Su frowned, "He's the reason why your own son doesn't call mother. Why are you still defending that man?"

"My brother had no choice." Madam Fang Bai sighed, "For the last sixteen years… no, from the day my brother supposedly killed you, he has apologized thousand times. And do you know, when you returned alive and became the Sect Leader, my brother wasn't angry; rather, he came to inform me about the truth?"

"It's hard to believe this…." Sect Leader Su shook his head.

Fang Yuan had always hated him. There was no way Fang Yuan would be happy for him.

"I know it is hard to believe," Madam Fang Bai sighed, "But do you think my brother would have left you alone if he didn't wish you to be alive?"

"I have had a fair share of assassination attempts ever since I came back." Fang Yuan sighed, "And they were all sent by Fang Yuan."

Madam Fang Bai sighed, "I wish I could make you see the truth. Even though I have hated my brother, over the years, I have slowly understood his side of the story."

"Alright, I will believe you." Sect Leader Su lied, "But tell me, when is Fang Chen getting married?"

"Three weeks from now."

"Three weeks?" Sect Leader Su frowned,  "Is this the reason why you were asking me if I can stay here for three more weeks?"

"Hm," Madam Fang Bai nodded, "Will you?"

"I can't." Sect Leader Su shook his head, "And trust me, I really wish I could. But right now, the Middle Heavens is my duty and my priority."

"Sigh, at least see you soon before you leave." Madam Fang Bai pursed her lips, "Will you?"

"..."

No reply came.

Confused, Madam Fang Bai raised her head and glanced at her husband, "will you? Hm… what happened?"

To her surprise, Sect Leader Su was looking in a certain direction.

'Two teenagers…'

'Do they know each other?'

She thought and asked, "Who is he?"

Sect Leader Su had his mouth opened in surprise as he continued to stare at the young man.

To be more specific, he was looking at a young boy on the far end of the Garden.

Bewildered by his reaction, Madam Fang Bai nudged Sect Leader Su's arms, bringing him out of his daze, "What happened? Do you know that young man?"

"Yes…" Sect Leader Su nodded, "What is he doing here?"

"I don't know," Madam Fang Bai shrugged, "He might be from some clan, though I don't recognize him. Do you know who he is?"

"Yes…" Sect Leader Su thought for a moment and said, "Let's go; we should greet him."

"What?" Madam Fang Bai frowned, "Greet him? Is he a bigshot? He appears very normal to me."

"No, focus your spiritual sense on them." Sect Leader Su said.

'Focus my Spiritual Sense on them?' Madam Fang Bai frowned for a moment and then did as asked.

Suddenly, something weird happened.

The faces of the two young men began to change.

'It was an illusion!?'

She was surprised. 'Who are these talented young men?'

As the illusion disappeared and her spiritual sense revealed the real faces of the young men, she couldn't help but feel surprised.

'Isn't that…' 

Because Madam Fang Bai recognized one of the young men.

He was the same one who kept glancing at her when she had first arrived at her. And in his eyes, there were no evil intentions, rather, just surprise and curiosity.

"Who are they? How do you know them?" She asked again.

"Well, I know both of them personally." Sect Leader Su replied, "The one on the right is a Core Disciple at my sect and the son of Master Liu, the man to whom I owe my life. His name is Jun Xie."

"And the one beside him…." Sect Leader Su took a deep breath and exhaled, "He's the most talented genius in the Middle Heavens, Son of Emperor Ye, and most likely, the future Heavenly Emperor, Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun!"

"This...." Madam Fang Bai was speechless upon hearing her husband's words.
