Myth Beyond Heaven

“Your Blazing Sun Palace has been attacked as well?” Yun Lintian asked.

Yan Yaoting nodded. “To tell you the truth, my Blazing Sun Palace has never let our guard down since ancient times. It’s an instruction from our founder. He said that the invaders from the Abyssal World are lying dormant and waiting for the right time to emerge again.”

He paused for a second and said further. “Besides, they didn’t send any top powerhouses to us. It was like they were testing us somehow.”

“My side as well.” Nantian Xuanyu said. “They aimed at our city and left out the outermost ones. Obviously, their true target is here.”

Earlier, Yun Lintian received a piece of news from his second sister, Murong Xue, that the Divine Thunder Palace and the Myriad Pill Palace were heavily attacked by a group of Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm and Monarch Profound Realm abyssal beasts.

Especially the Divine Thunder Palace. They had to mobilize their trump card, the Thunder Wrath Formation, to drive the enemies away.

As for the Myriad Pill Palace, their foundation was incomparably strong, as there were a lot of Monarch and Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm experts inside. Hence, they easily drove all the enemies away with no problem.

It was just that the Myriad Pill Divine City was currently shrouded by Abyssal Energy mists. It would take a long time to recover from it.

“They hide very deep this time. We couldn’t even detect them.” Nantian Xuanyu said with a trace of worry on her face.

As the saying goes, it is difficult to guard against a hidden arrow. If this continued, she didn’t know when her Divine Phoenix Palace would be attacked the next time.

Yun Lintian nodded slowly. The problem was that the higher level of Abyssal Beasts was, the stronger their concealing ability became. Without the ability like Yun Lintian’s Eyes of Heaven, it was extremely difficult to detect them.

“We have to come up with a new method.” Yun Lintian thought of the possibility of a solution. Perhaps he could invent a device that could detect Abyssal Energy.

He put this matter aside and turned to Yan Yaoting. “Earlier, Palace Master Yan said something about Yang Chen. May I know what it is?”

Yan Yaoting didn’t hide anything. “Presumably, you have already discovered something wrong with him. He came to me a year ago and showed my ancestor’s inheritance in exchange for resources.”

“Honestly, I planned to take away the inheritance from him, but I had no method to achieve it without him dying. The existence inside his body seems to be aware of this point, and I had no choice but compromised him in the end.”

He looked at Yun Lintian and said. “I didn’t know his background before this, but after investing thoroughly, I discovered that he has a relationship with you.”

Yun Lintian nodded slowly and asked. “So, what do you want me to do?”

“I’ll be frank.” Yao Yaoting took a deep breath and said. “I want the inheritance.”

“Why are you so sure that I can do it? Furthermore, you should be aware that he’s the rightful inheritor, right? Not to mention he’s my good brother.” Yun Lintian asked calmly.

Yan Yaoting had already expected this question. “I know. However, he’s no longer your brother. I can see his soul has almost been devoured by that existence.”

Yun Lintian frowned deeply and turned to look at Nantian Xuanyu. “How’s his condition, Palace Master Nantian?”

Nantian Xuanyu replied. “Lord Divine Phoenix didn’t tell me anything, but whatever is inside Yang Chen’s body should be eliminated by her now.”

Yan Yaoting was surprised. It seemed allowing Yang Chen to go to the Southern Continent was the right choice.

Yun Lintian turned to Yan Yaoting and asked. “If he has recovered, are you willing to make him the rightful successor?”

To everyone’s surprise, Yan Yaoting replied without hesitation. “I am willing.”

“Oh?” Yun Lintian was surprised to hear this.

Seeing the doubt in Yun Lintian’s eyes, Yan Yaoting asked. “Would you believe I had never wanted to be in this position?”

Yun Lintian and the others looked at Yan Yaoting thoughtfully without saying a word.

Yan Yaoting smiled wryly. “It’s understandable. To the outside world, I am a ruthless man who is willing to do anything for a benefit. However, no one knows what happened before I came to this current position.”

Yan Yaoting went silent for a while and told everyone about the true successor and the tragic story.

Everyone was surprised after listening to his narration. If it was true, as he said, then Yan Yaoting was really a loyal man. To carry the hope of his young master, he turned himself into a devil and killed all the way to reach his current position.

“So that’s why you want me to explore the Seven Swords Tomb with you?” Yun Lintian slowly nodded his head in an understanding manner.

“Yes.” Yan Yaoting responded. “I want to retrieve young master’s remains and, if possible, to unravel the secret inside.”

Yun Lintian touched his chin and pondered for a while before asking. “Your ancestor is Senior Yan Qi. Am I correct?”

Yan Yaoting’s eyes flashed with surprise. “You… have seen him?”

“Where do you think Yang Chen gets the inheritance from?” Yun Lintian said with a smile.

Yan Yaoting became excited as he hurriedly asked. “Where is he now? Is he still alive?”

Yun Lintian shook his head. “Unfortunately, no.”

Yan Yaoting was disappointed to hear this and sighed in sadness. If Yan Qi was still there, the Blazing Sun Palace would definitely reach a new height with his return. .𝓬ℴ𝓶

“Come with me to the Divine Phoenix Palace.” Yun Lintian said.

Yan Yaoting nodded and said to Nantian Xuanyu. “Alright. I’ll have to trouble you, Palace Master Nantian, and I am very sorry that Yang Chen has caused a problem. It’s all my fault. I’ll try my best to compensate you.”

Nantian Xuanyu waved her hand. “No worry. He didn’t do anything to harm my people.”

Before everyone left, Shen Mingjun walked over and said to Yun Lintian. “Do you have time to talk with me?”

Shen Liqiu frowned in dissatisfaction when she saw her father’s rude behavior. “What’s there to talk about?”

Yun Lintian raised his hand to stop her and said to Shen Mingjun. “We are preparing to go to the Southern Continent. Does Senior want to come with us?”

Before Shen Mingjun could say anything, his wife, Qin Mei, spoke first. “Sure. Let’s go, shall we?”
