Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

Chapter 188 - The Discussion Between Master And Disciple (II)

The tavern in the Purple Lake Town was covered with deep silence.

The projections of the old man at the center of the hall let out a sigh, "Tian'er, you stay in Lower Heavens for some time. It will take me a few days before I can confirm if Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun is in his mansion or not. Meanwhile, you should go to this sect and do thorough research. But don't let the news of your presence get out of the sect."

Qin Wentian asked with a frown, "Should we go in disguise, Master?"

The old man shook his head while replying, "No need for that, no one can recognize you anyway. By now, I think the higher-ups should know who you are, so going in disguise will only be a waste of effort. It would be better if you go and start investigating the situation, just tell those people to keep their mouth shut, or else they will face big trouble."

Qin Wentian nodded his head in affirmation.

The old man continued, "Also, don't tell them about your objective. Just use the excuse of that kid who died, tell them you are here to investigate the situation."

Seeing Qin Wentian nodded his head again, the Old man turned his head and glanced at the other three disciples in the hall for the first time ever since he appeared.

The three disciples were still kneeling, but seeing them, only a frown appeared on the Old Man's face.

"Ji Yi, don't create trouble for your Senior Brother, stay with him and help him with the situation."

All three of them replied, "Yes, Grand Elder."

The old man's frown deepened, this time annoyance could be perceived from his tone, "I was only talking to Ji Yi, why are both of you shouting? Did I call you two?" He was staring at the two disciples who had shown arrogance earlier while having their meal.

The two disciples kneeled even more, almost as if they were laying on the floor, and simultaneously said, "I apologize, Grand Elder."

"Hmph! Both of you come back to the sect. Don't stay any longer in the Lower Heavens. With your arrogance, I am sure you will only cause trouble and hindrance in Tian'er's investigation. Just come back. And let me give you a warning - don't you dare to mention anything that happened in this meeting to anyone. Don't even discuss between each other."

"As you command, Grand Elder." Both of the disciples immediately cupped their fists while still kneeling.

The old man nodded his head and turned towards Qin Wentian, "Tian'er, I will take my leave for now. Arrange this array again after two days. For now, take Ji Yi with you to that sect, investigate that place, and collect any possible clues regarding Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun.

"Yes, Master."

The old man nodded and in the next instant, the projection was dissipated.

Qin Wentian let out a deep breath and fell in a thought.

Ji Yi, the disciple who was told to remain with him, stood up and said, "Senior Brother Qin, what is it that's troubling you? Don't tell me you're intimidated by Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun's presence, haha?"

Qin Wentian let out a small laugh and replied, "Nah Kiddo, it's not that I am intimidated, the truth is, I am quite confused with the situation. This Prince's aura appeared at such a weird place, and that too for seemingly no reason - my confusion is definitely reasonable."

Ji Yi shook his head, "Senior Brother, I don't think someone with a huge background would come here of all places for no reason. There must be something that we are not seeing. Maybe there's someone or something in the sect that could play a huge role in the coming future?"

Qin Wentian nodded his head, "Could be."

Taking a seat at the table, he then looked at the other two disciples who had stood up from kneeling and here stretching their body, to get rid of the fatigue. 

Sensing someone's gaze, both of them looked up and found Qin Wentian staring at them.

Qin Wentian pursed his lips and after a few moments of silence, he said, "Junior brothers, you should head back to the sect. Since Master has commanded, I can't keep you here anymore."

Both of the disciple's faces suddenly turned bright as they happily nodded and one of them said, "We will leave right now, Senior Brother, take care."

Qin Wentian raised his eyebrows in surprise as he saw the two disciples act like they had been freed from prison and were going to live a luxurious life forever.

After a few minutes, both of the disciples had left the tavern. The people standing outside the tavern were surprised to see them suddenly leave.

Before the tavern owner could say anything, those two had already run away from the scene, clearly in a hurry to get back to the Middle Heavens.

The tavern owner could only sigh at his luck and wait outside in silence.

Inside the tavern, Ji Yi almost facepalmed seeing the actions of those two disciples.

He then looked at Qin Wentian and asked, "I still don't understand why you had to bring these two for the mission? Well, never mind, who cares? The important question is, when should we head for the sect?"

Qin Wentian let out a slight laugh and suddenly pulled Ji Yi's hand, making him fall straight on his lap!

His sudden actions startled Ji Yi, who got flustered and tried to stand up but was pushed back on the lap by Qin Wentian.

Letting out a slight smirk, he then gently rubbed the lips of Ji Yi with his thumb and said, "What's the hurry to get to that sect? We don't get much time alone, we should treasure this opportunity."

Ji Yi frowned, "What if someone comes in? What will people say when they see a young man sitting on your lap and you caressing his face with your hands?"

Qin Wentian rolled his eyes, "You? Young man? I don't understand why you want to remain in this disguise? You like acting like a boy or what?"
