Chapter 1785 Eternal Calamity (1)
The terrifying power emanating from the crown immediately subdued everyone facing Yun Tian.
Everyone at the scene wore a bewildered expression. They couldn't comprehend the current situation.
"What…" Yun Tian returned to his senses and looked at the crown covered in dirt. For some reason, he felt a strong connection to it. It was as if he had met a long-lost friend again.
Yun Lintian observed the scene thoughtfully. After witnessing two lifetimes of Yun Tian, he discovered that the crown would react whenever he wanted it to do so.
During Prince Yun Tian's time, Yun Lintian was unaware of the existence of the crown until Yun Tian revealed it at the end. At that moment, Yun Lintian was stunned by the sight of the crown and didn't react.
In Yun Tian's second life, Yun Lintian attempted to touch the crown out of curiosity, and it unexpectedly reacted. And now, as he thought about the crown, it quickly emitted a surge of power.
Based on this conclusion, Yun Lintian believed that he was now a master of the crown. Not Yun Tian.
"But why?" Yun Lintian was confused. "Isn't this supposed to be something that happened in the past? How can I influence anything here? Did I time-travel to the past?"
Time had always been the most powerful and mysterious force in the universe. Although Yun Lintian had read many novels about people who could control time, he didn't believe such a person existed in real life. Otherwise, no one could be his opponent, right?
"What are you doing!?"
A stern female voice resounded at that moment, and a few figures emerged from Yun Lintian's view.
The speaker was a stunning woman in her twenties. Her noble temperament made Yun Lintian guess that she was a descendant of royalty. Behind her stood a group of her personal servants.
"Princess Xia…" Yun Tian said in a low voice. Guilt was evident in his eyes as he quickly put away the crown.
"Princess Xia?… Is she Xia Nongyue?" Yun Lintian immediately made a guess.
He had caught a glimpse of Xia Nongyue before when he retrieved the Moon Garden back to the Azure World. Princess Xia in front of him indeed had a striking resemblance.
Yun Lintian's guess was correct. The woman was none other than Xia Nongyue, the eldest princess of the Xia Kingdom.
Xia Nongyue coldly stared at the middle-aged man who raised his sword and his accomplices. "Are you trying to kill him? How daring you are."
The middle-aged man and the others regained their freedom and quickly knelt down. "We greet Princess Xia. Please forgive us. We have been ordered to do it."
"Who is it?" Xia Nongyue asked coldly.
The middle-aged man hesitated and stayed quiet.
"Are you muted? Did you hear the princess ask you?" A heroic woman standing next to Xia Nongyue spoke coldly. She was Xia Nongyue's personal guard, Lou Lan.
"Let me guess. Is it the Crown Prince?" Xia Nongyue said.
"Yes." The middle-aged man had no choice but to admit it.
Xia Nongyue took a deep breath and turned to look at Yun Tian. Her expression softened as she spoke. "I apologize for causing trouble for you."
Yun Tian hurriedly waved his hand. "No. It was I who caused you trouble. I didn't know that you were a princess."
Xia Nongyue said gently. "If I hadn't concealed my identity, you wouldn't have ended up in this situation. Let me compensate you."
"Everything is fine now. I don't need any compensation." Yun Tian responded as he got up from the ground. He didn't forget to conceal the crown in his robe.
This scene did not escape the middle-aged man's notice. A hint of greed surfaced in his heart. The previously unknown power was undoubtedly caused by the object in Yun Tian's hand.
Lou Lan had also noticed something. She was a practitioner, and her perception was keen. Earlier, she clearly sensed a strong energy around this place. Judging by the middle-aged man's unusual expression, she could tell that Yun Tian possessed a valuable artifact.
As she pondered this, she whispered something to Xia Nongyue.
Yun Lintian witnessed the scene and nodded in approval. This woman's observation was incredibly strong. She could discern everything with a single glance.
Xia Nongyue's expression turned cold. She looked at the middle-aged man and said. "Since you dared to attack my friend, you should accept the consequences."
Swoosh!
Suddenly, Lou Lan and the other female guards behind her rushed out in a flash.
The middle-aged man and his companions turned pale instantly. "You can't kill us! We are the Crown Prince's people…. Arghhhh!"
Lou Lan and the female guards showed no concern and began to massacre everyone. The disparity of strength between the two sides was too great, and within moments, everyone in the middle-aged man's group was killed on the spot.
Yun Tian was stunned by the bloody scene. His heart tightened as he looked at Lou Lan vigilantly. He was not a fool who didn't know about the world. With a great artifact in his hand, it would be unbelievable if Xia Nongyue didn't want to take it.
"You have misunderstood us." Xia Nongyue said after seeing Yun Tian's expression. "We have no intention of stealing your fortune."
Yun Tian didn't let his guard down as he cupped his fists. "Thank you for saving me."
"Are you leaving?" Xia Nongyue posed an obvious question.
"Yes. I cannot stay in the city any longer." Yun Tian responded. "Take care."
Yun Tian turned around decisively and left. More precisely, he was running for his life.
"This guy…" Lou Lan shook her head.
Xia Nongyue stared at Yun Tian's retreating figure for a while, and her expression turned cold. "Let's go back."
Xia Nongyue and her companions turned around and walked in the opposite direction of Yun Tian.
Yun Lintian glanced at them briefly and then quickly followed Yun Tian.
Yun Tian didn't leave the forest right away. He found a secluded cave to hide in and took the opportunity to study the crown.
He found a nearby creek to wash the dirt off the crown.
"What a gorgeous crown. I wonder who the owner is?" Yun Tian muttered to himself as he gazed at the crown.
"Of course. It's you." Yun Lintian spoke to himself.
Buzz—
Suddenly, the crown shone, and Yun Tian was enveloped by a multicolored light directly…
