Myth Beyond Heaven

”Yang Gouming has visited the Misty Cloud Sect’s camp?” A dignified middle-aged man in white clothes asked while he wiping a long golden spear in his hand with fine linen. His facial features were ninety percent resembled Luo Kun, who was sitting on his side. He was the current patriarch of the Luo clan, Luo Kang.

”Yes, Patriarch. He also brought his children with him.” A butler reported.

”Why did he suddenly visited them?” Luo Kun frowned slightly.

The butler replied, ”He went to visit a young man over there. I don’t know what are they talking about, but it seems their relationship isn’t that simple because I saw Yang Gouming gave that young man a bow.”

Luo Kang’s hand stopped moving, as he was surprised and curious at the same time: ”Who could that be? How could a man getting along with the Misty Cloud Sect’s members?”

The butler shook his head. He failed to get information because the isolation barrier around the Misty Cloud Sect’s camp was too strong.

Meanwhile, Luo Kun suddenly thought of something. He asked, ”What does he look like?”

The butler began to describe Yun Lintian’s appearance.

After Luo Kun listening to the butler’s reply, his eyes immediately turned cold. ”It’s him?”

Luo Kang looked at his son as he asked, ”Who is it?”

Luo Kun quickly narrated about the incident where he met Yun Lintian in the capital city a month ago and how did he send someone to go after him but failed in the end.

Luo Kang said with a tinge of shock after listening to his son’s narration, ”A genius doctor? You mean he is the one who cured Yang Gouming and his children? He could even restore Yang Chen’s damaged Profound Vein?”

Luo Kun nodded his head firmly: ”Definitely! Besides him, nobody dares to help the Yang clan. I admitted that his attainment in medical profound art is extremely high. I never thought that he would appear here once again… But what is the relationship between him and the Misty Cloud Sect?”

Luo Kang had a suspicion about this as well. Just as they were falling into their own thoughts, the tent suddenly opened and Huo Shan immediately walked into the tent uninvited.

Luo Kang looked at Huo Shan with a smile. He said, ”What brings you here, Elder Huo Shan?”

Huo Shan unceremoniously sat opposite Luo Kang and said, ”I came here to ask for your help. I need you to join us to deal with Yun Huanxin.”

Luo Kang’s brows raised slightly: ”How many people over there?”

”Yun Huanxin came alone with her disciples.” Huo Shan answered.

Luo Kang was even more confused at this moment. Although Yun Huanxin’s spatial technique was difficult to handle, it shouldn’t be necessary to mobilize a huge lineup to deal with her.

Seeing Luo Kang’s puzzle expression, Huo Shan said further, ”She already reached Half-step Ruler Profound Realm. I and Elder Ji Yi are not her opponents. We’ve been defeated by her a while ago.” He didn’t tell Luo Kang about Qi Hao’s part for fearing Luo Kang wouldn’t cooperate with him.

Luo Kang didn’t agree right away. Instead, he asked, ”Do you know the identity of the young man who came with Yun Huanxin’s group?”

”He’s Yun Qianxue’s son. Yun Huanxin told us.” Huo Shan replied. He was also curious about this as well. He didn’t know if it was true that Yun Lintian was Yun Qianxue’s son.

Both Luo’s father and son glanced at each other in surprise. Especially Luo Kang, in the past, he was also one of Yun Qianxue’s suitors. How could he not know that the famous Snow Cloud Fairy hated men to the bone? How could it possible for her to have a son?

Luo Kang stabilized his mood and spoke, ”If it is the case, we should take this opportunity to capture him alive. Yun Qianxue definitely compromises with him in our hands.” He intentionally hid Yun Lintian’s capability from Huo Shan so that he could take advantage of this.

”Then I’ll take my leave first.” Huo Shan said and quickly left.

Luo Kang was pondered for a moment. He said to his son, ”Since this young man came here, he definitely participate in the exploration. Try your best to capture him. As for others, just kill them all.”

Hearing this, Luo Kun smiled wickedly in reply.

...

Five days passed by in a blink of an eye. During this period, the news about Yun Lintian’s identity had spread among every camp. Whether it was the Li clan, Hua clan, or Chen clan, they were looking forward to seeing this Snow Cloud Fairy’s son. After all, Yun Qianxue was an extremely famous individual. Her fame had spread throughout the Heavenly Fortune Nation, even a younger generation also heard her name before. In the past, her suitors could easily be lined up across the nation. After knowing she had a son, they were upset and unwilling to accept such a heavy blow. Even though they knew Yun Qianxue would never look at them and becoming her husband was even more impossible, they still wanted to know who was the chosen one that successfully took her down.

Yun Lintian’s group finished their preparation and immediately set off toward the mythical realm’s entrance by walking. When they reached their destination, several groups of people had already waited for them.

The Blazing Sun Mythical Realm could contain only 100 people at the same time, no more or less. The Qi royal clan had given a quota to each top force in the nation. They could bring 10 of their disciples to participate in the Blazing Sun Mythical Realm’s exploration with an exceptional 20 for the Qi royal clan.

Yun Lintian saw many familiar faces such as Luo Kun, Hua Wanru, Ji Yi, and Huo Shan. Aside from them, he saw another two unfamiliar groups of people. They were members of the six major clans, the Chen clan, and the Li clan. Upon seeing Yun Lintian’s group, all of them immediately looked at him attentively. Yun Lintian could feel several Spiritual Senses were rudely swept over his body.

”Hmph!” Yun Huanxin snorted coldly. Her aura burst forth, dispelling their Spiritual Senses completely.

”Haha, don’t be angry, Hall Master Yun. Everyone is just curious about the young master of the Misty Cloud Sect. After all, he is the Snow Cloud Fairy’s son we are talking about.” The Crown Prince, Qi Yuanfeng, stepped forward and said in relax tone. His gaze swept at Yun Lintian as he asked, ”Fifth level of Essence Profound Realm? It seems Young Master Yun’s talent is not good. Are you sure, you want to take part in this exploration?”

With his intelligence, Yun Lintian could guess the identity of Qi Yuanfeng right away. He smiled faintly: ”Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. As for my talent, indeed, it’s not good, but I still want to participate in this.” His voice was calm without a slight agitation after getting insulted by Qi Yuanfeng.

Qi Yuanfeng didn’t say anything further, he only laughed slightly. Seeing Yun Lintian was so calm despite he had verbally insulted him in a direct fashion, Qi Yuanfeng gave him a high evaluation. After all, there weren’t many youths around Yun Lintian’s age who could endure being looking down on like this without the slightest agitation.

In the Luo clan’s group, Luo Kun paid attention to Yun Lintian for all this time. When he saw Qi Yuanfeng trying to test Yun Lintian, he immediately changed his mind and took a step forward. He looked at Yun Lintian and said, ”We meet again, Doctor Yun.”

Luo Kun’s words instantly attracted everyone’s attention. Many of them didn’t know much about Yun Lintian. Naturally, they didn’t know he was the miraculous doctor that appeared in the capital city a month ago.

Yun Lintian glanced at Luo Kun and replied, ”Indeed, we have met again, Young Master Luo. Last time you’ve sent your subordinate to escort me back to the sect. I really appreciate that. May I know if he returned to you safely?”

Luo Kun’s eyes immediately narrowed. His body brimming with anger: ”Did you kill him?”

Everyone present was not stupid. They instantly understood the matter between the two. Luo Kun sent his servant after Yun Lintian, but that servant was killed by Yun Lintian instead. The way Yun Lintian spoke made everyone viewing him in a new light… Escorting you back to the sect? Haha! I’m afraid Luo Kun’s subordinate had probably become a fertilizer under a mango tree somewhere already. Everyone was amused by Yun Lintian’s sarcastic eloquence.

Yun Lintian raised his index finger and moving it side to side, ”No, no. You are asking the wrong question, Young Master Luo. Since when did I say that I kill your subordinate?… From the look of you, I assumed he hasn’t returned to you yet?” He then shrugged his shoulders and spread his arms innocently. ”Before he left, I already gave him some money for his transportation fee. Perhaps he didn’t take a carriage and still on his way back to the city?”

Just as Luo Kun wanted to say something, Yun Lintian suddenly slapped his forehead, ”Aiya, maybe I give him too little… Never mind, I will burn more money for him later.”

Pffttt—

Several people broke into laughter as they couldn’t hold back anymore. At first, they were confused why did Yun Lintian give Luo Kun’s subordinate money since he had already died. Now, they were enlightened — the money in Yun Lintian’s words was referred to joss papers. [1]

Luo Kun trembled in anger. His eyes burning with killing intent. This was the second time he had been toyed with.

Seeing this, Luo Kang took a step forward and said to Yun Huanxin, ”My people died in your Young Master’s hands. How do you want to settle this?”

The surrounding laughter abruptly stopped as they prepared to watch a good show.

Yun Huanxin gave a chuckle: ”Settle? Why don’t you give us compensation instead? You sent someone to kill our Young Master after all.”

Luo Kang stared at Yun Huanxin for a while. He snorted coldly, without saying a word in the end. However, when Luo Kun wanted to continue the conversation, Luo Kang raised his hand to stop him and said, ”You don’t have to say anything. Just make sure he can’t return from the mythical realm.”

Although his voice was not loud, everyone in this place was a profound practitioner. They could hear it clearly. They subconsciously glanced at Yun Huanxin, waiting for her to retort back. Unfortunately, the scene they were expected didn’t happen. Yun Huanxin only smiled faintly and paid no more attention to Luo Kang.

Woosh!

All of a sudden, a tide of profound energy surged out of the mythical realm’s entrance. The stone gate at the center started to rotate at low speed, releasing a white light in the middle space. The original empty space slowly filled with a curtain of white light and finally became stable, with no ripple.

”The entrance has opened. All the participants can go in.” Qi Yuanfeng said loudly while looking at everyone present.

”We will go now. Take care, Third Aunt.” Yun Lintian said to Yun Huanxin.

Yun Huanxin grabbed his hand and said with concern, ”You have to be careful in there. Don’t take the risk, understand?” Her beautiful eyes stared at Yun Lintian’s face as if she wanted to engrave this image into her mind.

Yun Lintian patted her hand and replied with a confident smile, ”Understood.” He then beckoned the other nine senior sisters to follow him into the entrance.

”Good luck. Young Master Yun.” As Yun Lintian walked past Qi Yuanfeng, the latter whispered with a meaningful gaze.

Yun Lintian casually nodded his head in a reply and vanished into the white light curtain along with nine senior sisters.
