Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

A/n: there's a small typo that I have been doing in the last few chapters. Instead of Gao Xuan, I have been writing Gou Xuan. I have corrected it now. Sorry for the confusion.

...

Ye Tian Yun closed his eyes and appeared in the consciousness space.

As soon as he appeared, Wang Yao opened his eyes and glanced at him.

Currently, Wang Yao was kicking a ball on a wall, both created by him.

He snapped his fingers, and the scenery around them changed.

Ye Tian Yun found himself standing on a boat.

He frowned and looked around, "Must be a boring life to live in someone's consciousness."

Wang Yao shrugged, "Well, I don't have feelings. So if it's boring or not, I don't feel anything. I am just a consciousness. Anyway, why have you come here? What's troubling you now?"

Ye Tian Yun thought for a moment and said, "Nothing much, just came here to check up on you."

He decided not to share his doubts with Wang Yao.

He needed to be on guard against Wang Yao too.

Thinking about that, he asked, "Wang Yao, you once said you could hear my thoughts. But you don't seem to react to them."

Wang Yao let out a sigh, "Actually, I also thought I could hear your thoughts, and I was able to hear them, but just like the strange space you encountered after taking the Emblem Of Time, this ability of mine was also temporary. Now I don't know anything and am just sitting here, passing the time."

"You can hear what is going on outside, though?" Ye Tian Yun asked.

"Yes," Wang Yao nodded his head, "I can hear it, but I don't care much. Listening to kids chattering doesn't really interest me."

"Oh?" Ye Tian Yun frowned, "Then I think you missed an important piece of information today."

"Hm?" Wang Yao couldn't help but ask, "What was it?"

Ye Tian Yun thought for a moment, and then scratching his chin, he replied, "My next target is the Capital City."

"Oh.. Wait- the Xin Kingdom's Capital City?" Wang Yao frowned.

Ye Tian Yun lightly nodded.

"This…" A complicated expression appeared on Wang Yao's face.

Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "Now you know who my next target is. Well, I am simply warning you not to interfere because your words will be useless."

Wang Yao let out a sigh, "Ye Tian Yun, I don't understand why you are missing such an important thing about me. You always forget that now I am just a mere consciousness. No power in the world can bring me back to life. In fact, let me tell you a little spoiler - I will disappear once you pass the battle on the Hundred Realm Refining Stage."

"Hm? What?" Ye Tian Yun was at first surprised at this.

But on second thought, he felt this was quite natural.

"Is it because the Emblem will be gone?" He asked.

Wang Yao unexpectedly shook his head, "No- no, it will be me which will disappear. Oh, and another spoiler alert - If you win the battle of Hundred Realm Refining Stage, you will be able to crown yourself as the Heavenly Emperor. And a consciousness of yours will then stick to the Emblem Of Time, drifting apart in the next generation, to guide the next Emblem Holder."

"Hmm…" Ye Tian Yun thought for a moment and asked, "What if I die before that?"

Wang Yao shrugged, "I will disappear then too. You will take my place here. For now, I would suggest you increase your ability as much as you can. All Tokens and Emblems had upgradable abilities. 

Previously, when the Emblem Of Time first awakened inside me, I could only revert back time by three seconds. But when both of us fought on the Hundred Realm Refining Stage, I had the ability to revert time by one whole minute!"

"One minute!?" Ye Tian Yun was shocked to hear this, "I thought you could only revert back four to five seconds of time."

Wang Yao smiled and shook his head, "No. This was never the case. Head-on, we only fought once. That, too, on that stage. The fights and moves were so fast that one second was making a lot of difference. This was why I never had to use my ability for more than four seconds."

"In fact, no one ever succeeded in forcing me to use the Emblem Of Time to revert more than eight seconds."

This information really came as news to Ye Tian Yun.

He had never thought of this.

"So, are you saying that the ratio of time dilation might increase even more?" Ye Tian Yun couldn't help but exclaim upon thinking this.

Currently, three hours in the Cultivation Space was equivalent to one hour outside.

And if it were possible to increase, then Ye Tian Yun's cultivation speed would increase even more!

'This is… too good.'

"Yes," Wang Yao nodded his head, "This is the most probable answer."

"So, how can we increase these abilities?" Ye Tian Yun asked.

Wang Yao shrugged at this, "You will have to find it yourself. I never found the way. It simply increased on its own."

"It increased on its own?" Ye Tian Yun frowned, "Didn't you have the system?"

Wang Yao nodded his head, "That's what I meant by how it increased on its own. Upon accumulating enough Kill Points, I was able to increase my Emblem's ability level."

"Ah…" Ye Tian Yun let out a breath, "Then it's almost impossible for me to increase. I never understood how the Emblem System even worked."

Wang Yao nodded, "Me neither. But there's something that can help you in this."

"What?" Ye Tian Yun asked.

"Emblem Of Luck."

"Hm?" Ye Tian Yun frowned, "How can that help?"

In his previous life, Emblem Of Luck was in his own possession, but he had never heard of anything like Kill Points.

"Is it because of its power on luck?" Ye Tian Yun made a wild guess.

Wang Yao smiled, "Exactly. Because only that can help you here."

"Oh…" Ye Tian Yun frowned, "I can't get the Emblem Of Luck till next year."

Wang Yao shrugged, "Then you gotta wait till you get it. There's simply no other way."

"Hm… but Wang Yao, tell me, why is that so little known to the public?" Ye Tian Yun couldn't help but ask, "There was no mention of any ability, let alone the fact that they can be upgraded. Even I didn't know this even though I had the Emblem Of Luck."

The information about the Emblems and Tokens should at least be known to the Top clans and sects, but even they are clueless about it.

Wang Yao smiled, "I may not know the exact answer to this, but I do have my own guess. I think it's because of the Emblems and Tokens. Tell me, have you ever had the urge to tell anyone about the ability of your Emblem Of Luck in your previous life?"

Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "No, I don't wish to dig my own grave. If someone knows the ability, then he might use it against me and trick me into an ambush."

Wang Yao nodded his head, "Exactly, and this is the thought that appears in every Emblem or Token holder's mind, no matter how intelligent or dumb that person might be."

"This simple thought has stopped one of the biggest secrets and mysteries behind the Emblems and Tokens - their abilities - to ever become public."
