Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

"Dude, what happened…? Tell me the reason that made him your mortal enemy?" Ye Tian Yun asked again.

Zheng Xiang replied after a long silence, "He tried to get close to her."

"He tried what?" Ye Tian Yun asked in confusion.

Zheng Xiang pursed his lips while replying, "He tried to get close to the one I love."

Ye Tian Yun heard, digested what he had just heard, and then laughed.

Zheng Xiang got annoyed at his laugh, "Why are you laughing?"

Ye Tian Yun barely stopped himself, "Ha-ha, you got worried about her?"

Zheng Xiang nodded his head, "Of course I was worried."

Ye Tian Yun finally stopped, and with the best possible serious voice he could muster, he said, "You don't have to be worried about her. It's that guy who needs to be worried about her."

Zheng Xiang frowned, "Why?"

Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "You will know. But I don't understand one thing, so what if he likes her? Is that the only reason you want to kill him?"

Zheng Xiang nodded his head, "Yeah. How dare he look at my woman with those lustful eyes?"

Ye Tian Yun looked from up to down and said, "You serious, mate? Did you just say you want to kill a guy who looked at the girl you liked?"

Zheng Xiang shook his head, "I - I mean, his behavior wasn't appropriate."

Ye Tian Yun scratched his chin, "If you had said you want to teach him a lesson, it wouldn't have been weird to me, but you want to kill that guy… I am pretty sure you have a syndrome."

"A syndrome?" Zheng Xiang felt offended, "What kind of syndrome?"

Ye Tian Yun rolled his eyes, "Protagonist Syndrome."

"What's that?" he asked.

Ye Tian Yun squinted his eyes for a moment and then gave a long sigh.

This confused Zheng Xiang, "What are you sighing for..? Is it something serious?"

Ye Tian Yun slowly nodded his hyed, "Yeah, it's a bit serious."

"What is it?" He asked in a bit worried tone.

Ye Tian Yun halted his steps and said, "It's a syndrome which makes the victim look for trouble and get offended easily."

Seeing Zheng Xiang listening to him carefully, Ye Tian Yun continued, "This syndrome makes its victims feel as if the world is centered around them and everything they say or do affects everything in the world. Due to this, they also get offended very easily and have a strong interest in wiping out the whole family of their enemies over a small matter."

Zheng Xiang put his hands on his chest, "Isn't this psychopathic?"

Ye Tian Yun nodded, "Yeah, it's also very similar but dangerous than the Young Master Syndrome."

"What's this syndrome?" Zheng Xiang asked.

Ye Tian Yun scratched his chin while replying, "This syndrome is pretty dangerous too. However, this syndrome is the one that courts death and gets death. While the Protagonist Syndrome is the one which also courts death, but it brings death to everyone around him."

Zheng Xiang replied, "Wait, doesn't this make it a good thing? The one with this disease can easily wipe out his enemies."

Ye Tian Yun smirked, "Don't forget that enemies are not the only ones close to him. There are his loved ones too."

Seeing a thoughtful expression appear on Zheng Xiang's face, he continued. "But there's one additional thing that is more important to take note of."

"What's that?"

"As I said that the syndrome you have makes you get offended pretty easily. It also gives you a purpose of motivation."

"It motivates you to grow stronger and gives you a goal. In my opinion, even this point is not good enough to cancel out the cons."

"This syndrome makes a person psychopathic and delusional. It makes them feel that every girl around them is falling for them - when instead, those girls just want to use him."

"It makes them feel that all his loved ones like elders and masters think him as the most talented disciple they have ever met or heard of - when instead, those old fogies just want to use him to achieve their goals, like taking revenge from an old enemy."

Zheng Xiang then asked, "So, what should I do to get away from this?"

Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "Think like a normal person, and act like a normal person."

"Remove any thought of yourself being a genius, and then, think before you act."

"Just take your current situation - from what I have observed ever since the day we first met, you are a very frank and easy-going guy who likes to mess with people you don't like."

"But there has never been an instance where you have acted like how you have just done - you want to kill a person who just looked at the girl you like with lustful eyes."

"I have never been in a relationship, so I may not understand your emotions, but I can judge things pretty well, and my judgment is pretty simple - you're acting like an absolute idiot."

"Why?" Zheng Xiang asked in a confused tone.

Ye Tian Yun pinched air in front of him and said, "One can't just kill a guy over such small reasons."

"First of all, you don't have the cultivation to back it up. Second, you also don't have a background. Third, you don't have the cultivation resources. Fourth, not to mention, you don't have the talent to catch up to that guy. Fifth, you don't have good allies. Sixth, you're weak at it."

Zheng Xiang opened and closed his mouth for few times, but no word came out.

Ye Tian Yun didn't wait for his response anymore and turned around. They were already close to the Elder Hall.

Just as they were about to step in, Zheng Xiang asked, "Brother Fang, have you ever suffered from this syndrome?"

Ye Tian Yun laughed, "Me? Hah! I am not the protagnist. I am just a side character - so the biggest disease I have ever had was the Young Master Syndrome."

Zheng Xiang was surprised, "So you got killed because of that?"
