Wang Yao slightly laughed at this question, "Third Brother, do you know what everyone calls ?"
"Heavenly Emperor Wang Yao, ruler of all that is known." Xiao Ming frowned.
Wang Yao nodded his head, "Indeed, that is true. But is everything known to us?"
"No…" Xiao Ming let out a sigh.
Wang Yao slowly nodded his head, "Indeed. We don't know everything. And one of these things includes the reason behind Ye Tian Yun's rebirth."
"Hm? What do you an?" Xiao Ming frowned, "It wasn't you?"
Wang Yao shook his head, "It wasn't . In fact, why would you even think that I would do such a thing?"
"Even if I stand at the peak, that doesn't an I would drown myself in arrogance so much that I would give my enemy a chance to change everything with the knowledge of the future."
Xiao Ming nodded, "That's true… but we all thought since you are the one who brought us here, and also being the most powerful being, it was you who gave Ye Tian Yun a second chance."
Wang Yao let out a long breath, "Third Brother, I have a few reasons to co here. And one of them includes finding the reason behind Ye Tian Yun's rebirth."
Xiao Ming shrugged, "I don't understand why you even care about it? What if he changes the past? We have already lived our lives, our past selves… though made quite a lot of mistakes… it's now on them."
Wang Yao frowned slightly, "Third Brother, tell , what do you regret? When we first t, I asked you a simple question - what do you desire the most? You replied with one word - power. Do you have it right now? I think you have a lot of it… or you want to be the most powerful?"
Xiao Ming gave a self-mocking laugh, "Power… indeed that was my answer. Big Brother, when we started our quest, I promised you two things - even though I was more powerful than you - the first one was that I would forever follow you and support you. So don't question my loyalty."
"As for regrets, I do have a few." Xiao Ming let out a sigh and stared out of the side window.
…
In the Gracious Sword Sect's Tavern, Yuan Shuchun suddenly stopped and looked at her window.
'What was that? It was as if soone was staring at … but the window is closed…'
'Maybe I am just too tired.' She let out a sigh and resud her cultivation.
…
"Yuan Shuchun?" Wang Yao suddenly laughed, "That girl… I thought you both hated each other, haha."
Xiao Ming frowned and let out a sigh, "Big Brother, it seems as if after all these years, you never understood ."
Wang Yao shrugged, "I never needed to. You are an open book, Xiao Ming. In your younger days, you were arrogant, scheming, and vicious. Now you act like an old man who has lived a life of regret and wishes to change the past."
After a slight pause, Wang Yao replied, "But that's impossible."
Xiao Ming remained silent for a long ti before asking, "Tell , Big brother, if you know the secret behind Ye Tian Yun's rebirth, what will you do? Will you also go back in the past and return to your fourteen-year-old self?"
Wang Yao thought for a mont and replied, "No. I have achieved what I want, and I have no regrets. Unlike you, I don't live in the past. I live in the present and plan for the future."
Xiao Ming slightly nodded and suddenly asked, "Where's everyone else?"
"They have gone back." Wang Yao replied.
"Back? You an, back to our tiline?" Xiao Ming frowned.
Wang Yao nodded his head, "Indeed. They got bored, so they left."
"Is everything still the sa?" Xiao Ming asked.
Wang Yao smiled, "Of course. Do you think I will let Ye Tian Yun succeed?"
"You're planning to kill him? But then, how will you find the truth behind his rebirth?" Xiao Ming was a bit confused,
Wang Yang shrugged, "I am close to the truth. Once I satiate my curiosity, I would only need a flick of my finger, and not even a drop of his blood will remain."
Xiao Ming nodded his head and turned back, "I shall return back too then."
"Hm? Don't you want to see yourself fighting Ye Tian Yun?" Wang Yao asked,
Xiao Ming shook his head, "Even though we only know what Ye Tian Yun sees, I am sure many enemies are lying in wait for the right ti. However, I have already killed Ye Tian Yun. To , this is just an illusion of ti."
Wang Yao smiled at his words but didn't respond much.
He just flicked a finger, and a portal appeared, twisting the space and ti in the room.
Seeing the familiar portal, Xiao Ming took a deep breath and went in. This was the sa portal through which they had co here.
*zip*
After the portal disappeared, Wang Yao stood alone in the hall and let out a sigh.
'Ye Tian Yun… to think we would once again be enemies. I can't imagine the Heavens chose you over .'
'To think you will go through rebirth… so much hassle, I have better plans.'
…
Next morning.
A few miles away from the Silver Mist Mountain.
A caravan slowly turned and faced the Mountain for the first ti.
Though they had seen many mountains, everyone in the caravan was still surprised to see its majesty.
"This mountain stands out a lot." The carriage rider couldn't help but comnt.
The maid who was sitting beside him nodded her head, "This mountain isn't the largest we have ever seen, but it does stand out a lot."
"With every inch, we move closer to the mountain, I feel as if we're walking right into a monster's mouth."
"Should we increase the guard?" An ethereal voice replied to her from inside the carriage.
"We should." The maid nodded her head.
"You heard what she said," The ethereal voice replied, commanding the three guards surrounding the carriage, "Don't lower your guard even though we have almost reached the Ao Ba Clan."
The voice seed quite young, and it was pretty clear that she was the center of this caravan.
