Chapter 3415: Scheming the Crown Prince

~7 min read 1,306 words

"Find him? What does he even matter, if he tells me to go I'll go! I still haven't settled the score for Qin Yuan and Qiang Shi's deaths, is he getting impatient with life?" Ye Liuyun scoffed, curling his lip.

Liao Yaotian quickly made a shushing gesture: "Just keep it in mind; after all this is the Zhao family's domain. Just try to stay away from him!"

Ye Liuyun said nothing more. He had originally intended to check the situation and then return to continue his cultivation, but he was no longer in the mood. After a moment's thought, he went straight to Hao Tai to ask for leave to explore that uninhabited planet.

His Space World was in dire need of resources now. With so many planets, it relied on Ye Ling alone to produce Taixu Divine Crystals, and she couldn't keep up. Everyone's cultivation also required Taixu Divine Crystals, and the Crystal Stones he had looted before were no longer sufficient. He had to find more resources as soon as possible.

Hao Tai, seeing that his realm had broken through, was very pleased, but he immediately hinted to Ye Liuyun: "The Crown Prince has come looking for you; it seems he's taken an interest in your Fire Flame Power and wants to make a deal to purchase that Fire Flame Power.

"If you go away to avoid him, that would be fine. I reckon he won't stay in the army for long. Go ahead, I approve it—give you a two‑month leave!"

"Oh?"

Ye Liuyun understood as well; the so‑called deal was nothing but a ploy to seize his Fire Flame Power.

"Zhao Yuanpei is really courting death! If I don't strike you, you can't wait!" he thought to himself, feeling that if he could lure Zhao Yuanpei away and then eliminate him, that would be ideal.

"Thank you, President!"

Ye Liuyun immediately thanked Hao Tai, then returned to his barracks, quietly summoned Liao Yaotian, and discussed the matter with him via Transmission Voice.

"If this goes wrong, it could be a death sentence!" Liao Yaotian, after understanding, was startled.

"Don't worry, you still don't know my Divine Soul Power? I won't give him a chance to transmit any information!" Ye Liuyun affirmed.

"Alright then! I'll cooperate with you this once!" Liao Yaotian finally agreed. Please download the latest content from the iRead app.

Afterwards, Ye Liuyun called Qi Tianlin and Chen Mo over, instructing them that he was going to the uninhabited planet and that the army's affairs would temporarily be handled by the three of them. He didn't tell them much, fearing the two wouldn't

perform, and would be exposed at that time.

After giving the instructions, he didn't linger and left the barracks at once.

Over at Zhao Yuanpei's side, he had just learned that Ye Liuyun had finished his cultivation, and immediately sent someone to find Ye Liuyun. He had already been impatiently waiting.

With the main army not engaged in battle, his staying in the army was meaningless; Zhen Wu Hou had already urged him to return.

Yet he was deliberately stalling. He coveted Ye Liuyun's unique fire, hoping to trade resources for it. He wouldn't dare tell Zhen Wu Hou about this plan.

He tentatively mentioned it to Hao Tai, but was blocked by Hao Tai. So he had to figure it out on his own.

Moreover, although he called it a trade, he had already prepared to coerce Ye Liuyun with his authority. He hadn't actually gathered sufficient resources, intending to give Ye Liuyun some premium Crystal Stone as a token.

So when he heard Ye Liuyun had finished cultivation, he immediately sent someone to summon Ye Liuyun. As long as Ye Liuyun was called to his residence, Ye Liuyun's resistance would be useless. If Ye Liuyun refused, he would arbitrarily pin some crimes on him to frame him.

He didn't expect that Ye Liuyun would give him no face at all, completely ignore him, and head out of the city for training.

"Damn! A lowly soldier actually dares to ignore the Crown Prince's command!"

Zhao Yuanpei also became angry, immediately went to Ye Liuyun's barracks, vented his anger on his soldiers, and asked where Ye Liuyun had gone. If he could strike Ye Liuyun outside the barracks, he would have no reservations.

"Ah, Crown Prince, what brings you here?" Liao Yaotian, upon seeing Zhao Yuanpei's fierce aura, immediately stepped forward, bowing low to greet him.

Qi Tianlin and Chen Mo, upon seeing Zhao Yuanpei, grew angry, knowing he was certainly looking for trouble, so they remained silent, glaring angrily.

"I'm here to ask you why Ye Liuyun didn't come to see me. Is it that the message I gave you to deliver, you failed to bring?"

Zhao Yuanpei immediately began questioning Liao Yaotian. The previous two times he had come, Liao Yaotian had handled it. Qi Tianlin and Chen Mo would never rush to deal with such a person.

"How could I dare! I did deliver the message, but as you know, he is the Leader; we can't force him to see you, can we?" Liao Yaotian said with a playful grin.

"So, does that mean he is not going to…

"So, does that mean he doesn't consider the Crown Prince worth his attention? Where is he?" Zhao Yuanpei confirmed his suspicion and immediately asked about Ye Liuyun's whereabouts.

"As soon as he stepped out, he went straight to the President to request leave and left the barracks; our lowly rank can't stop him!" Liao Yaotian continued to placate Zhao Yuanpei.

"Enough idle talk, I'm asking you where he went!" Zhao Yuanpei said impatiently.

"Well… our rank isn't high enough to dare ask the Leader where he's gone! Perhaps you should ask the President yourself?" Liao Yaotian deliberately provoked Zhao Yuanpei, knowing Hao Tai would certainly not tell him.

"Are you all courting death? Don't think that because I lack real authority in the army I can't deal with you. If I strike now and slaughter you, what can you do?"

When Zhao Yuanpei heard Liao Yaotian's tone, he felt that Liao seemed to know where Ye Liuyun had gone, and immediately began threatening him.

Beside them, Qi Tianlin and Chen Mo had already silently drawn their weapons. If Zhao Yuanpei dared to act, they would retaliate and not sit idly by.

"Oh dear, how dare we deceive the Crown Prince! Crown Prince, please calm down, calm down!" Liao Yaotian said while handling Zhao Yuanpei, also sending a Transmission Voice to Qi Tianlin and Chen Mo, urging them not to act.

"What? You still dare to strike at me?" Zhao Yuanpei also sensed the murderous intent on Qi Tianlin and Chen Mo.

"Ah, what's going on? We're all comrades, why resort to violence! How about this: I'll play the villain, and I'll tell the Crown Prince…"

Liao Yaotian immediately smoothed things over, seizing the chance to tell Zhao Yuanpei Ye Liuyun's whereabouts.

But Qi Tianlin and Chen Mo, unaware that Ye Liuyun was scheming against Zhao Yuanpei, looked at Liao Yaotian with confusion, not knowing what he was up to.

"Then speak! With the Crown Prince backing you, no one dares to move against you!" Zhao Yuanpei immediately turned to Liao Yaotian.

"Actually, telling the Crown Prince isn't a problem; I was just afraid you wouldn't believe me, thinking I'd deceived you! Our Leader went to that uninhabited planet in the west."

"Liao Yaotian!"

"Brother Tian!"

Qi Tianlin and Chen Mo were both stunned, never expecting Liao Yaotian to actually reveal it. Please download the latest content from the iRead app.

"What?" Zhao Yuanpei was also skeptical. He knew of that uninhabited planet, but with his own strength, he wouldn't dare go there himself.

"You're not lying to me?" Zhao Yuanpei again asked Liao Yaotian for confirmation.
