Chapter 489: Trust

After about half an hour, two men came out from the Crown Prince's room.

Butler Liu and Imperial Head Guard Wei.

The guards in the hallway saluted them as they went past.

Soon, both of them were outside the Imperial Palace.

[[Crown Prince, it's best not to fly for now. Some people will be able to detect that I am the one who's bringing you up.]]

Ye Tian Yun, currently disguised as Wei Guiyin, smiled.

[[You don't have to worry about this, Butler Liu.]]

As he sent the spirit message to Butler Liu, Ye Tian Yun's feet began to rise, and he was soon up in the air.

"This…."

Butler Liu was shocked to see this.

[[Crown Prince, you have reached the Core Formation REalm!]]

Butler Liu couldn't fathom what had just happened.

'Wasn't he in the Third Level of Foundation Establishment!? How did he reach the Core Formation Realm!?'

'It's just been two months!'

Butler Liu could only speechlessly follow behind Ye Tian Yun.

Even though the cultivation difference between them was huge, they could still fly at the same level. The only difference would be the maximum speed possible for both of them was heavens and earth apart.

But that was not even a problem here.

Butler Liu was moving with YeTian Yun pace.

As for Ye Tian Yun, he was at his fastest right now.

Even though the disguise was impeccable, he didn't wish to stay in the spotlight for long.

As long as he reached the Lower Heavens after crossing the Ascension Mountains, he would be able to relax.

He chose to reveal his actual cultivation to Butler Liu because of the chat he had with his father earlier today.

For some reason, he wanted to trust Butler Liu and his Father.

His father, Emperor Ye, trusted Butler Liu a lot, and this trust was very mutual.

The biggest proof of it would be that Emperor Ye knew that Ye tian Yun might have to kill Ling Feng'er in the future.

The only person whom Ye Tian Yun had told this was butler Liu.

Some might get suspicious or angry about this because Butler Liu had revealed what Ye Tian Yun had talked about.

But Ye Tian Yun didn't feel like that.

Instead, this strengthened his trust in Butler Liu even more.

In his previous life, when Jun Xie came to the Middle Heavens after facing many struggles, he decided to go against Ye Tian Yun by helping God's Legion.

It was at that time Butler Liu had to choose between Ye Tian Yun and Jun Xie.

And with a heavy heart, Butler Liu chose to remain loyal to Ye Tian Yun.

Eventually, after a year or so, Butler Liu would die at the hands of the God's Legion in an ambush.

The ambush was actually for Ye Tian Yun, but Butler Liu had switched places with him at the very last moment.

'How could I doubt the loyalty of such a person? Not to forget that the Prompt on his head was still at the Five Stars.'

The only reason why Ye Tian Yun hid his cultivation before was because of his paranoia.

But after today's meeting with Emperor Ye, something in his heart changed.

…

It took them about an hour to reach the Ascension Platform.

Butler Liu's arrival did attract attention from many but it wasn't on the scale on which Ye Tian Yun was greeted by everyone.

After answering some greetings, Butler Liu made his way through the dense fog ahead, Ye Tian Yun in Imperial Head Guard's disguise following him right behind.

Once they passed through the gate, they maintained the normal pace for some time, and after reaching above a secluded forest area, Butler Liu took the helm, and soon both were heading towards the Xin Kingdom's Royal City at lightning speed.

[[Crown Prince, we will stop few miles before reaching the city so you can change your disguise.]]

Butler Liu sent a spirit message.

Ye Tian Yun nodded.

[[That would be for the best.]]

....

Fang Clan, Royal Capital, Xin Kingdom.

One of the top four clans of the Xin Kingdom, the Fang Clan, was known for its political background.

Its Clan Head, Fang Yuan, was the Prime Minister of the Xin Kingdom and commanded a lot of respect and awe from the citizens of the kingdoms.

Other than Clan Head Fang Yuan, the elders of the Fang Clan also had high designated posts in the Xin Kingdom Beaureocracy.

In terms of cultivator strength, too, Fang Clan was one of the top clans in the Kingdom.

It was rumored that Prime Minister Fang, who was very busy with his work as the Prime Minister, was at least in the Nascent Soul Realm.

However, this prestige and strength weren't handed out by the Fang Clan predecessors.

And the main reason why people of Xin Kingdom respected the Fang Clan so much was not because of their current background.

Clan Head Fang Yuan was the one who brought Fang Clan from one of the thousands of normal clans to become the most powerful clan in the Big Fours of the Xin Kingdom.

This fact alone made normal people, mortals or cultivators, feel respect for the Fang Clan. This was not only in the Xin Kingdom, rather the whole Lower Heavens knew about Prime Minister Fang Yuan and the Fang Clan.

However, not everything was perfect in this picture.

While Clan Head Fang Yuan was one of the most well-respected people in the whole Lower Heavens, his son was quite the opposite.

Born with a silver spoon, his son was one of the most arrogant scions of the Royal City, and what made things worse was that his cultivation was also below average.

Young Master Fang was the black sheep of the Fang Clan.

And this person was also the reason why the whole clan was in chaos for the last month.

About two months ago, Young Master Fang Chen had mysteriously disappeared from a tavern after leaving the Gracious Sword Sect.
