Song of Adolescence

Chapter 307 The Real Fallen Snow Villa

This chapter is updated by Novelfree.ml

Within a day, the news about the present Yong'an Prince, the sixth prince of the past who could shake the entire Heavenly Revelations, and his return to Heavenly Revelations spread throughout the entire city. Of course, even if the news didn’t spread, everyone saw him too.

Because he was exactly the same as he was four years ago, riding his horse across the entire city, stirring up all the snow on the ground.

It was as if he was still the same sixth prince, Xiao Se, and nothing had changed at all.

He rode past the Yong'an Prince Residence, which was a newly built mansion. It was much more magnificent and exquisite than the White Prince Residence or the Red Prince Residence. However, the doors were tightly shut, and there were only a few little sparrows on the doorstep, looking a little desolate.

"Yong'an Prince?" Xiao Se snorted coldly. "Fuck that!"

He flicked his horse whip and galloped past the doors of the Prince’s residence without looking back.

Naturally, the others could not ride their horses all over Heavenly Revelations City in such a brazen manner like him. The one thousand Ye Banner Battalion had immediately turned around after they approached the city and apart from Ye Ruoyi, they rode back to Ningzhi Military City. Ye Ruoyi also said her goodbyes to Sikong Qianluo and Xiao Se, and returned to the General's Residence. The one thousand three hundred Brave Tiger Guards rode out and back again non-stop for several days and nights and in the end, none of them even drew their swords. Initially, they were a little despondent but when they caught up to Xiao Se at the gates of Heavenly Revelations City and joined him in that roar, they felt a sense of elation in their hearts. After all, not everyone had the opportunity to draw their sword and yell out loud in front of Heavenly Revelations City. After entering the city, they also returned to their barracks. Lanyue Marquis told Lei Wujie, "You guys head to the west of the city on Wuyi Lane[1]. Look for the largest mansion and Xiao Se will be there."

Lei Wujie scratched his head. "Which way is west? I’m no good with directions…"

Lanyue Marquis choked on a cough. He thought for a moment and said, "That Wuyi Lane…"

Lei Wujie still looked completely lost and he smiled stupidly. "This is the first time I’m in Heavenly Revelations…"

On the other side, Xie Yanshu started sniffing the air. "The buns smell so good. I’m going over there to take a look."

Lanyue Marquis eyed the group of youth from Snow Moon City helplessly, sighed and thought to himself: Can these people really help others to fight for the world? He couldn’t be bothered with them further. He shook his head and rode his horse back to the palace.

One of the disciples from Snow Moon City couldn’t take it anymore and he spoke up, "My home was in Heavenly Revelations. I know where Wuyi Lane is. I’ll take you all there."

"But…" Xie Yanshu objected hesitantly.

"Shut up!" Sikong Qianluo exclaimed, and pointed at the disciple. "You lead the way!"

The disciple was often bullied by Sikong Qianluo in Snow Moon City, so he nodded hurriedly. "Yes, yes!"

"Keep up!" Sikong Qianluo flicked her horse’s reins.

Xie Yanshu approached Lei Wujie and murmured, "I get the feeling that Qianluo-shijie has the qualities of the future citymaster."

Lei Wujie laughed. "When da-shixiong gets here, we’ll see if she dares to be citymaster then. Let's go!"

The group quickly arrived at Wuyi Lane and Sikong Qianluo had intended to ask around for directions to the largest mansion here. But, once they arrived, they realised there was no need to ask. They could tell with one look.

"It should be this mansion." The Snow Moon City disciple who said his home was in Heavenly Revelations pointed at the house.

Lei Wujie was so gobsmacked that his eyes almost fell out. "Fallen… Fallen Snow Villa?"

Of course, this was not the Fallen Snow Villa where he and Xiao Se first met. Just one of the door panels on this Fallen Snow Villa was probably worth more than half of that inn. It's just that the same four characters were clearly written on the plaque above the door.

"Watch the snowfall from the front door, view the mirrored lake from the back. I have a mountain villa, its name is Fallen Snow. It’s the epitome of elegance."

"My mountain villa is probably worth ten of those baskets of luminous pearls!"

Lei Wujie remembered what Xiao Se used to say all the time, and his jaw dropped in shock. "So this fella wasn’t bragging, ah."

A house steward stood respectfully at the door, and two guards armed with blades stood on either side of the steward. Both had grave and stern expressions on their faces while the house steward had a faint smile. He had been waiting many years, and this day had finally arrived.

There was a light sound of horseshoes, and everyone turned their heads to see Xiao Se trotting over on his horse, taking his own sweet time. The house steward took a few steps forward and knelt down heavily, two lines of tears streaming down his face instantly. "Young master, you have suffered outside all these years."

"Not at all. I was also staying in Fallen Snow Villa when I was out there." Xiao Se grinned, jumped off his horse, and helped the old house steward to stand. "Old Xu, you’re the one who has suffered."

"Nonsense." The old steward shook his head and said intently, "Who in this Heavenly Revelations City would dare to bully us?"

Xiao Se nodded and laughed, patting the old steward on his shoulder. "That's right, who would dare to bully us."

"Young master, come home and rest." The old steward hurriedly stepped aside, and the guards beside him also stepped back.

Xiao Se walked a few steps forward until he was at the door leading into the villa. Then, he suddenly turned around and looked at the group of people from Snow Moon City who were still standing there.

Sikong Qianluo and Lei Wujie had the same feeling then, that the Xiao Se in front of them seemed to be a stranger and was no longer the Xiao Se that they were familiar with.

But in the next moment, they came back to themselves and realised it was just a false impression.

Xiao Se reached out a hand and smiled at them. "Why are you still standing there like idiots? All of you, come in. From now on, this will be our home in Heavenly Revelations City."

For three days in a row, there was a lot of excitement in Heavenly Revelations City.

Whether they were the high-ranking officials and the nobility, or merchants and tycoons, or even the people from various religious sects and schools and the commoners, they were all watching this Fallen Snow Villa, looking forward to anything special that might happen.

However, in those three days, this Fallen Snow Villa did not open its front door even once. It was as if the Yong'an Prince who had returned to Heavenly Revelations had vanished, completely unlike his previous style. Could this arrogant and unruly prince have changed his personality after suffering some years outside?

For a time, the rumours spread.

Until the afternoon of the third day, Xiao Se stretched his back and opened his eyes to the sun pouring in.

"Traveling non-stop for several days and nights is really exhausting." Xiao Se rubbed his eyes and stood up.

He put on his clothes, refused the help of his servants, and after taking his time to wash up, he picked up his Wuji staff and walked into the main hall of Fallen Snow Villa.

Like him, Sikong Qianluo and Lei Wujie also made their own preparations quietly and at this time, they walked into the main hall in silence. Neither exchanged a single word.

After they slept through the first day, there was no news.

After they slept through the second day, there was still no news.

Now they had slept through the third day, no matter how tired or exhausted they were, they couldn’t sleep anymore.

No matter what happened, they should know something by now.

A visitor in black was sitting in the main hall drinking tea. There was a spider web embroidered on his sleeve, representing his identity - an agent of Snow Moon City’s spy organisation, Spiderweb.

"Speak," Xiao Se said evenly.

"Tang Lian encountered the assassins from Hidden River. A total of twenty-one assassins. Eight assassins were killed, thirteen were injured."

"That’s not important!" Lei Wujie interrupted him.

"Tang Lian drank the Seven Cups of Starry Night Wine, exhausted all his strength, and died."

"Where’s his body?" Xiao Se forced down the tremor in his heart.

"His body was taken by the envoys sent from Tang Clan."

Sikong Qianluo suddenly felt her legs go weak and she fell to the floor. She sobbed as she murmured, "Da-shixiong… is dead?"
