Myth Beyond Heaven

“We will bring you there after the banquet.” Shen Mingjun made the decision directly, causing the clan elders behind to frown.

They had a general idea about Yun Lintian, but the clan’s library was a forbidden area exclusive to the clansmen. Throughout clan history, no outsider had ever entered it. No matter how powerful Yun Lintian was, the rules passed down from their ancestor must be abiding strictly.

“Patriarch…” One of the elders, who carried a wooden fan, wanted to say something, but he was interrupted by Shen Mingjun.

“We will talk about it later.” Shen Mingjun said and led everyone to the dining hall.

Yun Lintian could feel the unusual atmosphere and guessed there was internal strife. It seemed the Shen Clan wasn’t as united as he had expected.

After everyone sat down, and the dishes were served, no one talked about the situation outside. They were focusing on general topics instead.

As the banquet went through halfway, a young man with eighty percent resembled Shen Mingjun walked into the dining hall and greeted. “Father, Mother, welcome back.”

“You’re here. Come, take a seat.” Qin Mei smiled gently and beckoned the young man to sit down.

She turned to look at Yun Lintian and said. “This is my son, Qiu’er’s younger brother, Shen Hui.”

She then looked at her son and introduced him. “This is your future brother-in-law. His name is Yun Lintian.”

The young man, Shen Hui, was slightly surprised as he glanced at Yun Lintian. “Brother-in-law? What happens to Brother Lei?”

As he spoke this, many elders in the hall turned to look at Shen Mingjun in unison. These people were the ones that supported the decision back then, and they also stood on Shen Hui’s side.

Shen Mingjun glanced at his son and said indifferently. “He’s not lived up to the standard. Don’t mention him again.”

Shen Hui frowned slightly but didn’t say anything further. He turned to Yun Lintian and cupped his fists. “Please forgive for my rudeness. My name is Shen Hui. Welcome to our clan.”

Shen Hui’s demeanor was calm and seemingly polite, but Yun Lintian could feel the arrogance in his bones. It was as if no one in this hall was worthy for him to personally entertain.

Furthermore, Yun Lintian could see that Shen Hui clearly looked down on him. Perhaps in his mind, Yun Lintian couldn’t even fit in Lei Jun’s shoes.

However, Yun Lintian didn’t care. He had no intention of entertaining this young master either. He politely replied. “Hello. My name is Yun Lintian. Nice to meet you, Young Master Shen.”

A trace of disdain flashed through Shen Hui’s eyes upon seeing Yun Lintian’s polite gesture. In his mind, Yun Lintian must be a soft person.

He paid no attention to Yun Lintian further and turned to look at the people around him. His pupils constricted immediately upon seeing Lin Xinyao, Yun Qianxue, Mu Qiuxue, and Han Bingling.

During the meal, they naturally took their veils off, revealing their celestial countenances.

Shen Hui was immediately captured by their peerless beauty. Especially Lin Xinyao. He had never seen anyone as beautiful as her before.

Without thinking further, he asked. “May I know these ladies are…?”

When he spoke this, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed across Qin Mei and Shen Shuchun’s eyes. They naturally saw through his thoughts at a glance. 𝑜𝘷𝑙.𝘰𝑟𝑔

However, Yun Qianxue and the others didn’t even look at him. They continued to eat elegantly and fed Yun Lintian from time to time.

Seeing this scene, a hint of anger appeared in Shen Hui’s eyes. He was a dignified young master of the Shen Clan, the overlord of Mirage Island. How dare they ignore him?

At this moment, the elder with the wooden fan, Shen Dong, suddenly spoke. “Our young master asked politely, but you didn’t answer him. Don’t you think it’s a bit rude?”

As the words came out, the atmosphere grew intense immediately.

Shen Mingjun frowned and looked at Shen Dong. “They are my guests. How dare you speak like this?”

However, Shen Dong didn’t seem to be afraid of Shen Mingjun. He fanned the wooden fan slightly and said calmly. “It’s because they are the guests. I think they should at least give us faces.”

On the side, Shen Hui was satisfied with Shen Dong’s outright speech. He looked at Yun Lintian slightly, waiting to see his reaction.

A cold glint flashed across Shen Mingjun’s eyes, and before he could say anything, Shen Shuchun had already said. “It seems Second Elder really has no patriarch in his eyes. I really wonder where did you get this confidence from?”

She glanced at a few elders and Shen Hui. “Don’t tell me all of you believe that you can rebel successfully after receiving benefits from the Divine Thunder Palace?”

The expressions of the elders changed slightly. Shen Dong looked at Shen Shuchun and said calmly. “Miss Shen, you shouldn’t slander people without evidence. Besides, I just want them to know that this is our territory, and they should behave as a guest should do. Otherwise, once the news about the guests riding our head in our own territory goes out. How are we going to do?”

“Heh. A bunch of trash. I know all of you will never change.” On the side, Shen Liqiu chuckled coldly. She had been watching all this time and didn’t want to say anything at first. However, this Shen Dong and Shen Hui dared to have an idea about Yun Lintian’s women. They were simply courting death at this point.

“Please pay attention to your words. You are no longer the young miss of our clan.” Shen Dong stared at Shen Liqiu coldly.

At this moment, Yun Lintian put the chopsticks down after feeding Linlin. He glanced at Shen Mingjun and said. “Please forgive me for saying this, Uncle. Although I’m young, I still know a thing or two about ruling people.”

He glanced at Shen Dong and said further. “In my eyes, this elder obviously has an ulterior motive to disrupt the harmony among the clan. If I were you, I would never let such a person slide or let him harm the clan in the long run.”

“Of course,” Yun Lintian paused slightly, and a harmless smile appeared on his face. “If Uncle Shen can’t do it, I don’t mind doing it for you.”

The temperature in the hall dropped sharply as his voice fell…
