Myth Beyond Heaven

Yun Lintian’s brows raised slightly upon hearing the question. Shen Yan didn’t ask where he got the ring from, but who gave him instead. This indicated that she knew something.

“Oops. I seemed to slip my tongue.” Shen Yan covered her mouth, pretending to be surprised.

Yun Lintian took another divine-rank profound art out and placed it on the table. “Tell me.”

Shen Yan laughed and put the book away. “In fact, I’m unsure myself. Why don’t you show me?”

Yun Lintian tapped his finger on the ring, and the golden ring immediately appeared in everyone’s sight.

Xu Chang’s pupils constricted when he saw this. It was because he could feel a trace of a powerful aura inside. It was definitely the aura of a God Emperor. ．

Meanwhile, Shen Yan said to herself. “Sure enough. It should be that person.”

Yun Lintian frowned slightly. “What are you mumbling about?”

Shen Yan went silent momentarily, trying to recollect the information in her mind.

A moment later, she said. “Around four thousand years ago, a peerless woman appeared out of nowhere and rose prominently like a shooting star. No one knew where she came from or what kind of background she had. She basically swept every heavenly genius in the Divine Realm.”

“It took her only a thousand years to reach the Divine Emperor Realm, which was something no one had ever seen before.”

On the side, Xu Chang seemed to realize something. His gaze was fixated on the ring with a nostalgic look on his face. The image of that peerless woman resurfaced in his mind like a movie.

“How is she related to this ring?” Yun Lintian was puzzled.

Shen Yan didn’t seem to hear his question. She said further. “The woman had always covered her face. No one knew how she looked. Even her name was also mysterious. Everyone simply called her Wushuang, which means unparalleled. Just like her unmatched strength.”

Yun Lintian’s eyes widened. Could she be the founder of the Misty Cloud Sect, Yun Wushuang?

“The timing…” Yun Lintian furrowed his brows tightly, pondering over this matter. A moment later, he was certain this peerless woman was Yun Wushuang.

Where did she find him, and why did she deliver him to the Misty Cloud Sect?

Countless questions popped up in Yun Lintian’s mind. He felt like he had almost connected all the dots together, but it was still far away in the end. It was as if there was a layer of mist blocking him from reaching the truth.

Shen Yan looked at him and asked. “You seem to have figured out who she is.”

Yun Lintian asked in doubt. “How did you know that this ring related to her?”

“Our Mystic Auction House had come into contact with her once. I was very young at that time, but I would never forget her unmatched aura for the rest of my life.” Shen Yan’s eyes were full of reverence while speaking this.

“She’s my idol. I wish to be someone like her who makes the world tremble.” Shen Yan said. “Back then, she entrusted our auction house to sell a rare metal known as an invisible metal.”

She pointed at the ring and said. “She had also worn such a ring herself. Judging from the pattern and shape, I am sure it’s hers.”

The frown between Yun Lintian’s brows grew deeper as he asked. “Where is she now?”

Shen Yan shook her head. “No one knows. She somehow mysteriously disappeared a thousand years ago. Some said she encountered a mishap in a secret realm. Others said she was captured by the Heavenly Desolate God Emperor.”

“Puff!” All of a sudden, Shen Yan spat out a mouthful of blood. Her face went pale as a white sheet.

Yun Lintian was shocked and hurriedly grabbed her wrist, injecting his wooden energy into her body.

Shen Yan waved her hand and said. “I’m fine. I forgot that I shouldn’t mention his name.”

Xu Chang heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Shen Yan was fine. “Miss, you shouldn’t continue.”

Yun Lintian retracted his hand and finally realized why Hongyue always stopped him from mentioning those God Emperors’ names.

Shen Yan wiped the bloodstain away with a handkerchief and said. “I have to remind you of this. Don’t mention the God Emperor’s name. Especially those on a hostile side. You will end up worse than what I had just experienced.”

She took a deep breath and asked expectantly. “Since you seem to know her. Can you tell me about her?”

Yun Lintian hesitated briefly and decided to tell her about it. Anyway, she could ask his fourth sister herself later.

“Her name is Yun Wushuang. She is a founder of my sect, Misty Cloud Sect. From what I know, she had disappeared from the lower realm around four thousand years ago.” He said.

“Yun Wushuang… So, her name is really having the words Wushuang.” Shen Yan said to herself. Her eyes gleamed with excitement as she finally knew her idol’s name.

Xu Chang asked curiously. “From your age, you are unlikely to come into contact with her directly. Did she leave the ring behind?”

Yun Lintian shook his head. “I was sent to the sect when I was an infant, and that person left the ring behind.”

“I see.” Xu Chang nodded in an understanding manner. It was as he had expected.

Yun Lintian suddenly said in doubt. “I know I was an infant at that time and had no memory of it. However, after learning about her, I just feel that it’s not her who brought me to the sect.”

Yun Lintian then proceeded to tell the two about what he learned in the Azure World.

Shen Yan frowned deeply. “A mysterious woman who could set up a mythical realm? And it was related to the Beyond Heaven King?”

Xu Chang was no different. He stroked his long beard repeatedly as he expressed his thoughts. “The Beyond Heaven King had long disappeared for more than ten thousand years. How could she have a connection with him?”

He looked at Yun Lintian and said further. “Presumably, the woman was indeed Fairy Yun. It would mean that she came to the Divine Realm, rising to the top and returning to the lower realm to set up everything ahead of time.”

“Three thousand years later, she found you and left you in the sect. Since then, no one had ever seen her again.”

Shen Yan nodded in agreement. “This timing is reasonable.”

She looked at Yun Lintian and said. “Looks like your identity is in the question here.”
