Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

  "Brother Fang, did you also notice it?"

Just as Ye Tian Yun was about to get up and head towards Jun Xie, he heard a faint whisper from his right. 

Glancing at the side, he found Zheng Xiang looking at him with a frown.

"What?" Ye Tian Yun asked.

"Don't tell me you didn't notice?" Zheng Xiang was surprised by Ye Tian Yun's response.

"Don't you feel weird about what's happening? Why are they sending back the disciples when there's an assassin hiding outside. They should focus on finding that assassin, rather than caring about us. It's not like we're little kids and will die if left alone." He slowly whispered with a confused tone.

Ye Tian Yun nodded his head, "I think they are either trying to bait the disciples or there's another reason which they are trying to hide."

ZHeng agreed, 'Could be. Let's see what happens."

Ye Tian Yun nodded his head and got up from his seat.

Zheng Xiang couldn't help but ask," Where are you heading?"

Ye Tian Yun pointed at Jun Xie with his eyes, "He will know the answers."

"But why would he tell you about anything?"

"Just wait and watch." Ye Tian Yun gestured at him and moved towards Jun Xie.

…

Jun Xie was sitting on the throne, with his hand on his chin.

He hadn't left the banquet hall with Yuan Shuchun because Grand Elder Li had told him to handle the disciples and be on the lookout for any suspicious disciples.

The Sect was planning to check all the disciples for any unique signs or things, which could help them identify the sleeper cells.

And to make this foolproof, they didn't wish for the disciples to know about it. So they decided to make a ruse of sending them back to the cultivation abodes but in truth, they will check them and send them to the floors above.

The above two floors would be enough to handle the disciples.

And they will keep note of anything weird or out of ordinary things they find among the disciples.

Jun Xie thought that this plan was pretty good. But the only disadvantages they had in this plan was the time limit and the chance that the sleeper cells were conscious of what they were doing.

The time was limited so they had to check all the disciples as soon as possible, and if they failed in this, then there won't be any difference and many disciples, including elders this time, will die. 

The loss will be bigger than when disciples were inside the hall, because this time, there would also be elders present at the scene.

And if the Sleeper Cells were conscious of what was happening, there was a good chance that they would explode themselves as soon as they understood what was going on. So this made the checkpoint place the most vulnerable and dangerous.

Except for these two issues, there wasn't much problem or loophole in the plan that he could find.

Just as he was lost in his thoughts, Jun Xie noticed from the corner of his eye that someone was heading towards him.

He raised his head and saw the last person he wanted to see at this banquet.

Fang Chen.

He pursed his lips and suddenly an idea clicked in his mind.

Before anyone could notice, they were in an illusion that didn't make many changes but focus more on Ye Tian Yun and him. This illusion made both of them talk normally, but surprisingly, not even the closest disciples to them were able to hear what they were talking about.

"You are really good at putting illusions. This sound trap illusion is really good." 

Just as Jun Xie had put the illusion on everyone, he heard Fang Chen's comment on the illusion.

He narrowed his eyes and said, "You are also really good at looking through the illusions. Is this because of your sword talent?"

"Could be." Ye Tian Yun shrugged his shoulders and took out a chair from his spatial ring.

He then put the chair in front of Jun Xie and sat on it with one leg above the other.

Jun Xie raised his eyebrows, and with a light smile, he asked, "Are you not afraid that an elder will come and see through this illusion? Or what if I remove this illusion right now?"

Ye Tian Yun smirked at him as he said, "Elders won't come this soon. And as for you removing the illusion, well you can. It's up to you. I don't really care."

Pursing his lips, Jun Xie asked, "Then let's talk. Tell me, who are you?"

"Fang Chen." Ye Tian Yun shrugged his shoulders, "I won't believe it if you say you don't know about me."

Jun Xie narrowed his eyes at his answer, "Do you really think I am a fool? You're definitely not Fang Chen. Who are you?" He leaned forward with an intimidating expression over his face.

Ye Tian Yun only smiled at his words, "I am Fang Chen. I don't understand why someone would doubt my identity."

"Then how do you know my Clan name?" Jun Xie's expression was severe.

"I know your clan name?" Ye Tian Yun acted cluelessly.

"Don't try to be innocent," Jun Xie still had the serious expression, "Don't forget the only reason why no one knows that you have the Sword Intent is that I didn't reveal it. Just tell how you know or why you associated me with the Liu Clan?"

"Ah, that?" Ye Tian Yun laughed slightly, "You don't have to think much about that. Just know that I mean no harm neither I have any plans to come between your goals." 

Then with a slight pause, he continued, "Just keep your head low. The only reason why I even let you know about my sword intent was that I am interested in what you hold dear."
