“This is not a good joke, Wang Yao.” Ye Tian Yun frowned, “I hope you aren’t lying just to get yourself a good deal.”

Wang Yao shrugged, “I ain’t lying. You indeed have a brother.”

Ye Tian Yun stared at him, “It’s impossible. If I really do have a brother, why don’t I know about it? Why did my father never tell me about it? Why does no one in the Middle Heavens know about it?”

Wang Yao shrugged, “Of Course they won’t know. Your brother isn’t in Middle Heavens, and he wasn’t even born in the Middle Heavens. Instead, he’s in the Upper Heavens.”

“Upper Heavens?” Ye Tian Yun frowned, “Why’s he there?”

Wang Yao shrugged, “I can’t tell you why. But he’s there, in flesh and blood.”

Ye Tian Yun shook his head, “It still feels like you’re making up a story. What about my father then? Why did he never tell me about this?”

Wang Yao smiled, “Pretty simple. He isn’t aware that he has another son. If he knew, do you think he wouldn’t have told you?”

Ye Tian Yun frowned, “Is this some fantasy story? How can… how come I never knew about this in my previous life?”

Wang Yao frowned, “Well, in your previous life, there were many things you didn’t know about. You didn’t know about Wang Yao’s true identity; you didn’t know about the Upper Heavens; you didn’t know about the System.”

Ye Tian Yun lightly nodded, “True… but… this is truly unexpected news?”

Wang Yao shrugged, “I just care about the bet; I don’t know what you think or make out of this situation. Anyway, tell me, was this information worth it?”

Ye Tian Yun pursed his lips, “What if, in future, this information turns out to be false?”

Wang Yao frowned, “Dude, it doesn’t matter if I tell you or not. One day you will know for yourself once you reach the Upper Heavens, and that is if you succeed.”

Ye Tian Yun lightly nodded.

“Also,” Wang Yao continued, “Even he isn’t aware of your identity. To the people of Upper Heavens, entering the Middle Heavens is forbidden.”

“Forbidden?”

“Yes,” Wang Yao nodded, “Why do you think your father has enemies in the Upper Heavens, but they never came to the Middle Heavens.”

“Oh? Is it because of this reason?”

“Yes. The people of Upper Heavens are barred from stepping in the Middle and Lower Heavens unless they have the blood of someone from these Heavens, running through their veins.”

“But then… How did Butler Liu come to the Middle Heavens? Is he not from the Upper Heavens?” Ye Tian Yun frowned.

Wang Yao nodded, “He is from the Upper Heavens. And the reason why he’s living in hiding is because of that very reason. His enemies can’t step in the Middle Heavens, so he’s safe.”

Ye Tian Yun frowned, “Really? If he’s so safe, then why did he abandon Jun Xie?”

Wang Yao shrugged, “I have no idea about that. I am not an omniscient being. I only know things which Wang Yao encountered in the previous timeline.”

“Hm, understandable.” Ye Tian Yun lightly nodded his head, “So, you’re saying that no one from the Upper Heavens can enter the Middle Heavens except Butler Liu and my ‘apparent’ younger brother?”

Wang Yao frowned for a moment and shook his head, “There might be three other people, but they won’t show themselves in the Middle Heavens. Those three are important people whom you will know more later.”

Ye Tian Yun sighed, “So many things… how powerful do I need to be to know everything from you?”

Wang Yao scratched his chin, “You will never be powerful enough, but if you can reach the Saint Realm, I will tell you.”

“Saing Realm?” Ye Tian Yun frowned, “You mean, after getting the Heavenly Throne?”

Wang Yao nodded, “Yes. In fact, most of the answers will unravel on their own; you will just have to sit back and watch as everything unfolds.”

Ye Tian Yun pursed his lips, “My brother… What is his name? And does that mean… he’s… with my mother?”

Wang Yao shrugged, “I don’t know about his name.”

“You don’t know?”

“Yeah, and nobody does. He never had a name.” Wang Yao sighed, “However he does have a title, and that’s how everyone refers to him, even… even….”

“Even…?” Ye Tian Yun raised one of his eyebrows and lifted his chin a bit out of curiosity.

Wang Yao shook his head, not revealing anything else.

Ye Tian Yun shrugged, “Alright, no need to say the name, I think he’s the person who shouldn’t be named – the enemy from the Upper Heavens.”

Wang Yao simply blinked and didn’t affirm anything through words.

Ye Tian Yun asked, “What is my brother’s title?”

Wang Yao sighed, “Ah, good that you changed the topic. Next, if I become silent midway through a sentence, just know who I am talking about. Anyway, one of the reasons why I told you information is because this brother of yours needs your help.”

“My help?”

“Yeah,” Wang Yao nodded, “As for his title, it’s the Crown Prince of Heavens.”

“Crown Prince of Heavens…” Ye Tian Yun’s eye twitched, “This… is an interesting title. So, why does this Crown Prince of Heavens need my help?”

“Because… he’s in a predicament and will most probably die by the time you turn twenty-four.”

Ye Tian Yun nodded, “Well, what can I do about that?”

“What do you mean?” Wang Yao asked with a frown, “Your brother needs help… What else can convince you?”

Ye Tian Yun smiled, “Well, let’s be clear on one thing. Even though this person is my brother by blood, I don’t even know his name or face, nor have I ever met him. Five minutes ago, I didn’t even know he existed.”

“And he also doesn’t know that I exist,” Ye Tian Yun shrugged while adding, “Why do you think I should focus my mind on him? There’s no need for me too. Anyway, I am sure if my father knows about this Crown Prince of Heavens, he will definitely do something, so there’s no need to worry.”

Wang Yao pursed his lips, “Well, why don’t you hear what his trouble is? I am sure you will change your mind.”
