Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

"What happened?" Heavenly King Ling frowned.

He felt a bit disrespected by Ye Tian Yun\'s reaction.

"Why are you doing this?" The Crown Prince asked.

Heavenly King Ling asked, "What are you talking about?"

Ye Tian Yun pursed his lips and leaned forward, "Uncle Ling, I -"

"Wait!" Heavenly King Ling interrupted him, "I am not your uncle anymore. You should call me Father-in-law."

Ye Tian Yun squinted his eyes.

"What?" Heavenly King Lin smiled, "You don\'t want to?"

Taking a deep breath, Ye Tian Yun calmed himself and said, "Father-in-law. I want to ask you, why did you let the cat out of the bag? What was the need of announcing the engagement  to the whole world?"

"Announcing?" A confused expression appeared on Ling Guang\'s face, "What are you talking about? The Great Ling Clan did not make an announcement."

Ye Tian Yun nodded, "So that\'s how it is… alright... "

Taking a light breath, he leaned back on the couch, "Father-in-law, there\'s no point in acting ignorantly. And I don\'t want to beat any bush. That is why I have asked directly - what does the Ling Clan want?"

Ling Guang remained silent for a moment before bursting into a huge laugh, "Hahahaha! You are quite funny, kid. You forgot the fact that…." He suddenly grew serious with every word, "It\'s my daughter who\'s getting engaged. The whole world must know that it\'s a great occasion for the Great Ling Clan. It\'s a historic event for the Middle Heavens."

Ye Tian Yun pursed his lips and stood up.

"Hm?" Ling Guang frowned, "Are you going back? You have just come here, what\'s the hurry?"

Ye Tian Yun narrowed his eyes and said, "Heavenly King Ling… if you think you can take advantage of the Great Ye Clan, I must remind you that you\'re gravely mistaken here. If the Great Ye Clan can form this engagement, they can also break it!"

"Boy!" Heavenly King Ling stood up.

The aura around him suddenly changed.

He clenched his teeth and said, "boy, keep a lease on your mouth. You might get into trouble for that. And it\'s you who\'s ignorant if you think the Great Ye Clan can do whatever it wants. Go and ask your father why this marriage is even taking place, and try to break this engagement. We will then see the outcome."

Ye Tian Yun turned towards the exit, "Heavenly King Ling, wait for the new then."

Without even waiting for Ling Guang\'s response, Ye Tian Yun headed out.

The shocked Butler Liu also followed behind.

Behind them, Ling Guang sneered.

\'He really thinks this marriage can be broken just like that? Let\'s see your expression when you hear your father\'s words.\'

…

Outside the Ling Manor.

The Great Ling Clan guards had already kicked out the crowd blocking the path, and now the things had returned to normal.

"I will get the carriage."

Butler Liu said and disappeared in the next moment.

Ye Tian Yun stood near the closed gates of the Ling Clan Manor and looked up.

\'The sky is… different today.\'

He then turned around and saw the huge Ling Manor.

The five-floor manor was close to his palace in majesty and stood there like a sleeping tiger.

Suddenly, his eyes landed on one of the curtained windows.

\'Is that…\'

Just then, a strong gust of wind flew by, and the curtain was swept away.

A majestic and breathtaking figure appeared at the window.

Ye Tian Yun\'s eyes widened.

It was her.

She was looking right at him.

But instead of the love-filled eyes that he had expected, there was only unbridled anger in her eyes.

But nothing as such mattered for Ye Tian Yun at this moment.

Because he was currently starring right in her eyes.

"Crown Prince, the carriage is here."

Just then, Butler Liu appeared and interrupted Ye Tian Yun\'s attention.

"Hm, let\'s go." Ye Tian Yun took a deep breath and turned around.

Soon he was in the carriage, heading back to the Imperial Palace amidst the curious eyes of the people and the guards on the street.

…

"What happened!?"

After a few minutes, Madam Ling hurried to the Guest Hall.

Heavenly King Ling was staring at the main gate in deep thought.

"What happened?" She asked again.

Behind her, Ling Qing\'er and Ling Feng\'er also arrived.

Ling Guang glanced at them and shook his head, "Nothing, just my son-in-law throwing a tantrum.."

"Father, is everything alright? Why did Brother-in-law Ye Tian Yun leave so suddenly?" Ling Qing\'er couldn\'t help but ask.

Heavenly King Ling frowned, and after a long silence, he said, "Crown Prince wishes to end this marriage."

"What!?" Madam Ling and Ling Qing\'er shocked voice resounded in the Guest Hall.

However, the most shocked among them was, of course, Ling Feng\'er.

\'What? This was not supposed to happen!\'

She was confused and stumped at her father\'s words.

Why would he reject the marriage?

She had thought of a hundred different possibilities, but this outcome never crossed her mind.

Because the Crown Prince would never break off this engagement on his own. 

\'Doesn\'t he need me for the Emblem Of Luck? Why did he reject the marriage? Did I do anything that changed the future?\'

A thousand questions flashed in her mind, but she had the answer of none.

…

Few miles away from the Great Ling Clan manor.

The Crown Prince\'s carriage was entering the Imperial Palace.

Inside the carriage were ButleR Liu and Crown Prince Ye Tian Yun.

They hadn\'t spoken a word ever since they left the Great Ling Clan.

As the carriage passed through the Imperial Palace Gates, Butler Liu finally asked, "Crown Prince, why do you wish to end this engagement?"

Ye Tian Yun closed his eyes and leaned back on the soft seat of the carriage.

"Butler Liu, there are a lot of things that I wish to accomplish, and marrying Ling Feng\'er was never on the list."

"But why?" 

Ye Tian Yun smiled at this question, "The answer is pretty simple. If this engagement goes forward, there will come a day when I will have to kill her personally."
