Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

"What the fuck!" Ye Tian Yun stared at Jun Xie, "Out of all the quotes in history, this is the one you chose."

Jun Xie shrugged, "It was closest to the truth."

Ye Tian Yun frowned with a nod, "Can't deny that."

"See, told ya."

Ye Tian Yun asked, "So, what is it that you're doing which will be more dangerous than suicide?"

After a slight pause, he looked to his left and right and leaned a bit forward and then slowly whispered, "Don't tell me you want to confess your hidden love for Yuan Shuchun in the hope that she will forget Xiao Ming and come to you. And you both will live happily ever after."

Jun Xie facepalmed, "I will be the last person in the whole world to fall in love with her."

"In fact, I would rather jump in the endless ravine than be with her. She's too vicious. You and Xiao Ming haven't seen her true nature."

"Oh?" Ye Tian Yun was a bit surprised by this hidden hate.

"Yeah," Jun Xie nodded. 

It wasn't hard to see how much he disliked Yuan Shuchun. He was literally radiating this hate inside of him.

"Why do you hate her so much? Did she kill your lover or family?" Ye Tian Yun asked.

Jun Xie pursed his lips but remained silent.

Ye Tian Yun could guess his answers, but he wanted to listen from Jun Xie's mouth.

He wanted to know what he thought about the things that happened in the past.

Seeing him remain silent, Ye Tian Yun pushed him a bit more, "Well, weren't you singing songs of our long friendship? Tell me then, what is it that makes you averse to Yuan Shuchun."

Jun Xie frowned and closed his eyes, "Things are much more complicated than you could think. I have my own mission. The Gracious Sword Sect is just a stop for me; I am not interested in the Sect Leader position. It's just that the Nine Supremes needed a face, and I was made into one."

"Oh?" Ye Tian Yun feigned surprise.

He already knew Jun Xie's objective. Thus this revelation didn't come as a surprise to him.

Jun Xie bit his lip with a frown and said, "Shu Xian, do you know I am an orphan?"

'Finally, you're saying it.'

"Yes." Ye TianYun nodded his head.

Shu Xian let out a sigh, "Well, this is actually not true. I do have a family, and my clan is pretty big even in the Middle Heavens."

"Oh?" Ye Tian Yun opened his eyes wide; he couldn't be more surprised.

Jun Xie nodded his head, "Yes, however, for some reason, I was left outside a temple."

And then, putting his hands around his neck, Jun Xie took out a necklace, "This is the only thing I have. The only thing that can take me back to my home."

The necklace wasn't a simple one. 

It was a green jade transparent necklace, and inside it was a letter embedded.

[Liu]

"Liu?" Ye Tian Yun read it, "You're from the Liu Clan, and this clan is somewhere in the Middle Heavens?"

Jun Xie nodded his head, "Yes. I just don't know who they are. There can be thousands of Liu Clans all over the Middle Heavens."

"Why do you want to find them?" Ye Tian Yun asked, "You don't even know them. What if they don't accept you?"

He was getting closer to the answer he wanted to hear.

Jun Xie leaned his head on the carriage, "I don't care if they accept me or not ...  I just - I just want to know why they abandoned me? What is it that made them do this?"

"Oh? And then? What will you do after that?" Ye Tian Yun asked.

Jun Xie shrugged his shoulders, "I never thought beyond that."

Ye Tian Yun scratched his chin, "What if they accept you? Will you stay?"

Jun Xie replied, "As I said, I don't know what I will do."

Ye Tian Yun narrowed his eyes, "What does your heart say? Do you want to return? Will you forgive your parents?"

"I just don't know, man."

"What if there was indeed a valid reason for your parents to abandon you? What if they never abandoned you, but they brought you to safety?"

Jun Xie let out a sigh but didn't reply for a long time.

"I just know," He said, "That abandoning your child is the worst thing a parent can do."

"Even if they did have their reasons, do you know how old I am? I will turn Eighteen in a few months."

Gritting his teeth, he continued, "Eighteen years, goddamn it! Eighteen years! What is it that can stop them for eighteen years? I don't think there is anything that can stop them."

Ye Tian Yun pursed his lips but didn't say anything. 

'Should I tell him?' 

For the first time, he felt like he should reveal the truth.

'But that will only create more trouble for me…' 

He shook his head, 'I won't interfere. I will let him play with his fate, and I will let him go on his own adventure.'

He raised his head and asked, "Jun Xie, what if your parents are… are dead? Did that possibility ever come to your mind?"

Jun Xie pursed his lips, "Possibility? Heh, I believed for fifteen years that they were dead. Until one day… that day everything changed."

"Oh? What happened?" Ye Tian Yu asked.

Jun Xie smiled and raised the necklace in front of him, "You see this? Do you think I had this around my neck for my whole life?"

"You didn't?" This confused Ye Tian Yun.

"Of course not," Jun Xie smiled, "This necklace was given to me by my master."

"This necklace is the only way for me to get to my family. This is my aim, my goal, and my motivation."
