Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

"Brother Yun, I\'m going to the Supreme Alchemy Hall!"

"Hmm."

"Don\'t miss me too much, okay? Leave that part to me!"

"..."

"Anyway, I heard you\'re preparing for the Immortal Pavilion Entrance Trial? It\'s still two years, I am sure you will be unstoppable by then."

"Yeah."

"So, Brother Yun, I figured that if I learn Alchemy and Arrays, I will be able to help you a lot in the future! My Master is also very good to me, but I don\'t know how long I will be staying in the Sect."

"Focus on improving yourself, I don\'t want burdens."

"Burden? Me? Hmph! I, Ling Feng\'er, will show you how talented I am! But honestly, Brother Yun, will you miss me?"

"...maybe."

…

Ye Tian Yun frowned as a blurry conversation replayed in his mind. One of the many buried conversations that he didn\'t feel himself to be ready about.

He sighed and jumped up from the tree.

His movements instantly alerted Feng Yun, who had a shocked expression on his face.

Immediately a huge illuminated circle formed behind his back as he took a fighting stance, "Who are you!?"

Ye Tian Yun raised his hands to show he had no bad intention, "I am Fang Chen; we met yesterday."

"Fang Chen?" Ling Feng\'er frowned, "Ah, the guys who bought ten burgers?"

"Um… yeah."

"What are you doing here?"

"Well, I was practicing, and you showed up." Ye Tian Yun replied.

"Hm? Isn\'t it the opposite? I am the one who\'s practicing, and you\'re the one who showed up."

"I was here before you came with Ling Yun. Anyway, that\'s not the point; I am actually more interested in the thing you have behind your back."

"This?" Ling Feng\'er frowned, "Why do you want to know?"

Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "This is the second time I see these. The last time I saw it, I was too young, and to my surprise, I encountered this thing again, so I am curious."

"You encountered someone using these?" Ling Feng\'er narrowed her eyes, "Who?"

"It was a powerful young woman," Ye Tian Yun replied, "But she had an eye patch."

\'Master?\' Ling Feng\'er was a bit taken aback, "You sure?"

"Well, yeah… an eye patch is hard to miss."

"Hmm," Ling Feng\'er light nodded, and then moving her hands, she brought the illuminated circular disc to her side and explained to Ye Tian Yun, "This is called an Offence Array."

"Offense Array…" Ye Tian Yun had an ignorant expression as he asked, "How do they work?"

Ling Feng\'er shrugged, "Well, it\'s in the name - these are Offense Arrays, and you can throw them to attack someone or something."

"I understood that," Ye Tian Yun replied, "I mean, how do they really work?"

Ling Feng\'er thought for a moment and said, "You will have to reach Level 7 Array Mastery to understand the basics to this."

"..Level 7…" Ye Tian Yun\'s eyes twitched. 

The highest level was Level 7. And Ye Tian Yun had never touched a scroll of Arrays, much less reached that level."

Ling Feng\'er smiled, "I have never been a teacher, so I can\'t explain you in simple words. This is the reason why this knowledge is not so common. Without reaching Level 7 in array mastery, it will be impossible for anyone to understand anything about these arrays."

Ye Tian Yun thought for a moment and asked, "What\'s your level?"

"It\'s not enough."

"Hm?" Ye Tian Yn frowned, "What do you mean?"

"Whatever it is, it\'s not enough." Ling Feng\'er then asked, "Anyway, are you planning to practice here? I can go and look for a different place."

"Nah, it\'s alright," Ye Tian Yun replied, "I am just very curious about this Offense Array. Do you mind telling me who taught you? I have never heard of a Level 7 Array Master."

"My master," Ling Feng\'er replied, "She is one of the most powerful Array Masters in the whole world."

"Oh?" Ye Tian Yun thought for a moment and asked, "Most powerful in the world… is she from the Middle HEavens?"

Ling Feng\'er narrowed her eyes, "...No."

"What! Wait, don\'t tell me she\'s… from the Upper Heavens!?" 

"I don\'t know," Ling Feng\'er shrugged.

"Ah," Ye Tian Yun light nodded, "How did you learn so much, so fast? You\'re my age, and you\'re already at Level 7."

Ling Feng\'er shrugged, "Maybe I am very talented."

"You are…" Ye Tian Yun smiled, "Are you from the Upper Heavens?"

"No," Ling Feng\'er shook her head.

"Middle Heavens?"

"Why are you asking so many questions?" Ling Feng\'er frowned, "I don\'t think we know each other very well."

Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "Aren\'t we doing that? You know a lot about me; I am also trying to do that."

"I know a lot about you? Why am I not aware of that?"

Ye Tian Yun smiled, "Tell me what\'s news for you in this: I am Fang Chen, Scion of Fang CLan, Disciple of Gracious Sword Sect, A wastrel who likes to have fun and use his background to suppress others."

"...I guess you have a point."

Ye Tian Yun smiled, "Well then, you\'re Feng Yun. Are you from the Middle Heavens?"

"...Yeah." Ling Feng\'er nodded.

"Oh? Which clan?" Ye Tian Yun couldn\'t help but ask.

"I am not from a significant clan." Ling Feng\'er replied.

"Oh," Ye Tian Yun didn\'t doubt it much. He hadn\'t heard of any Feng Clan among the major clans in the Middle Heavens.

After a moment of thought, Ye Tian Yun asked, "Are you related to the person I met a few years ago? The person who also used these Offense Arrays."

Ling Feng\'er thought for a moment and shook her head, "Not yet."

She meant she wasn\'t related to her Master in this timeline, but Ye Tian Yun didn\'t know of this and thought about it literally.

"Are you trying to say someone from an insignificant clan in the Middle HEavens has become Level 7 Array Master at the age of what… sixteen?" Ye Tian Yun smirked at Ling Feng\'er with an expression of a cat who had caught her prey in her claws.

Ling Feng\'er was unperturbed, "You can believe in what I say or not. It\'s up to you."

Ye Tian Yun smiled, "Alright, I will trust you on this. But I must say, you\'re quite possibly the most talented Array Master in the whole world."

Ling Feng\'er nodded, "True."

"...."
