Myth Beyond Heaven

Qi Yuanfeng trembled slightly under Lan Ning’s pressure. He took a deep breath and said. ”My apology, Senior Lan. I didn’t mean to be rude, but I happened to see an acquaintance walking with you earlier. I don’t know if Senior Lan would allow me to meet him?”

So he saw it. Lan Ning thought. Her expression turned cold as she said. ”Oh really? I didn’t even know that my servant actually knows you.”

”Servant?” Qi Yuanfeng frowned. ”I…”

Before Qi Yuanfeng could say further, Lan Ning interrupted him. ”You don’t believe me?”

Her words made Qi Yuanfeng struggled immediately and did not know how to reply. He couldn’t say that he didn’t believe her, right?”

Lan Ning smiled coldly and said. ”If you don’t believe me, why don’t you come with me and see?” She paused for a second and said. ”However, if it turns out you didn’t know him, I’ll ask your father for an explanation.”

Qi Yuanfeng’s expression froze and reluctantly said. ”Of course, I believe Senior Lan didn’t lie to me. I will take my leave first. I hope Senior Lan would forgive me for wasting your precious time. I will definitely compensate you.” Following that, he quickly slipped away under Lan Ning’s gaze.

Lan Ning looked at Qi Yuanfeng’s disappearing back for a while before turning around and went upstairs to meet Yun Lintian.

”You can stay here for the time being. I think he won’t dare to come here for a second time. However, if it’s possible, you should leave this city.” Lan Ning said after bringing Yun Lintian back to his room.

Yun Lintian cupped his fits and said. ”Thank you, Senior Lan. I owed you this time.”

Lan Ning waved her hand. ”It’s fine. You helped me before. I naturally have to repay.” Her meaning was obvious. The debt of gratitude between Yun Lintian and her was clear now.

Yun Lintian naturally understood this. He smiled and nodded. ”I know what to do.”

Lan Ning said nothing further and left the room afterward.

Yun Lintian went to lie on the bed and fell into deep thought. He didn’t know what method Lan Ning used to scare Qi Yuanfeng away, but he was certain Qi Yuanfeng wouldn’t give up easily. Now, he didn’t have many choices in his hands. It was either he leaves this city or using Han Bingling’s token to ask for help.

However, whether which choice Yun Lintian chose in the end wasn’t good for him. The first choice, he had to leave this city with an empty hand, and he had no idea about Thunder Valley. Going there without knowing anything was too dangerous. Even though he had plot armor with him, he wasn’t necessarily safe all the time.

As for the second choice, this would make Yun Lintian the center of attention of the powerhouses here. Unless he contacted Han Bingling directly and asked her for help. However, this would make him owe her, which he didn’t wish for.

Yun Lintian had a headache at this moment. He knew that he was too rushed to come here while his strength was too low, but he felt it was worth it if this Thunder Valley really had the lightning element source. By absorbing it, his strength would definitely soar by leaps and bounds, just like when he first absorbed the Sun back then. This was clearly a high risk, high return.

After weighing the pros and cons for a long time, Yun Lintian took the transmission jade out, preparing to contact Han Bingling. However, before he could send a signal, the transmission jade suddenly trembled and glowed in blue light, indicating Han Bingling had contacted him.

”Little brother, are you staying at the Blue Moon inn right now?” Han Bingling’s lazy voice rang out from the other side.

Yun Lintian immediately got up with a frown on his face. How did she know he was here?

”Oh, don’t worry. I didn’t track you on purpose. It was my people who saw you and told me about this.” Han Bingling seemed to know his thoughts and explained.

”Your people? How did they know me?” Yun Lintian asked.

”So, you are really there? Well, I have sent your profile to my trusted people in case you have encountered something, and they can help you in time.” Han Bingling replied.

Han Bingling knew this might anger Yun Lintian, but she needed to do this in order to protect him. Right now, in her opinion, Yun Lintian was one of the keys to fight the Poison Valley. She couldn’t afford to lose him.

Yun Lintian could roughly guess her intention, but he was still dissatisfied. After all, no one liked being stared at by someone all the time.

”You’ve replied to me so timely. I guess you were about to contact me earlier, right? Say, is there anything you want this sister to help you with? Or do you want this sister to go to your place now so that we can have a deep conversation at night?” Han Bingling said playfully.

Yun Lintian was immune to her seductive plays already. He thought for a moment before replying. ”I indeed need your help right now. I want to enter Thunder Valley. Can you give me more detailed information? The one you gave me last time is not enough.”

Yun Lintian recalled the information within the jade slip that Han Bingling gave him. It was too vague, as though she deliberately hiding some parts from him. He also decided not to tell Han Bingling about Qi Yuanfeng. Otherwise, she could trace back and discover he was someone from the Misty Cloud Sect.

On the other side, Han Bingling frowned slightly. She gave him general information last time to prevent him from going there, but she didn’t expect Yun Lintian to still insist on going.

Since Han Bingling couldn’t prevent Yun Lintian from entering the place, she might as well tell him everything he needed to know. ”To enter the Thunder Valley, you need a special item called Thunder Crystal.”
