Myth Beyond Heaven

Ning Yue was stunned and subconsciously drew closer to Yun Lintian, looking at him for help. No matter how good the benefit was by becoming Zhi Dazun’s disciple, Ning Yue didn’t want to leave Yun Lintian in the slightest.

Yun Lintian looked at her and said with a smile. “You have to think about it yourself. If you don’t want it, you can say it out loud. No one will hurt you here. Not under my watch.”

“However, you should also think about it carefully before deciding. This is a good opportunity that countless people are yearning for.”

Ning Yue tightened her grip on Yun Lintian’s sleeve. Her eyes started to waver as hesitation was written all over her face after hearing what Yun Lintian said.

However, it didn’t last long before she regained her determination.

Under Zhi Dazun’s expectant gaze, she turned to him and bowed gently. “Thank you, Senior, for offering me a great opportunity. And I’m sorry. I can’t be your disciple.”

Zhi Dazun wasn’t angry. He was merely surprised by her decision. “Perhaps you might not know my ability. How about I show you so you can decide again?”

The young woman beside him looked at Ning Yue strangely, as if she didn’t quite understand why Ning Yue rejected this opportunity.

Zhi Dazun was one of the four great elders of the Divine Alchemy Association. His status was only below the two God Emperors and his elder brother Zhi Yu, who was the Supreme Elder. Any top forces in the Divine Realm would have to show respect to him whenever they see him.

In fact, he didn’t have to come here by himself. If it wasn’t for the fact that the Thousand Calamities Pill was so important to the God Emperor, he wouldn’t have appeared here this time.

Ning Yue mustered her courage and said firmly. “Thank you, Senior. But there’s no need to display your strength because I will never leave my brother.”

Qin Mei, who remained silent for all this time, suddenly said. “Please give up, Senior Zhi. My young miss wanted to take care of this little girl herself, but she also got rejected by her.”

Zhi Wei was shocked. Who was Qin Mei’s young miss? Obviously, it was Shen Yan, a daughter of the current patriarch of the Mystic Auction House and a granddaughter of the Mystic God Emperor. Even she was actually rejected by Ning Yue?

Zhi Dazun frowned slightly and glanced at Yun Lintian. “Although you’re talented, I don’t think you can provide her a better future as we do. Why don’t you give up on her and let her join us? Anyway, you’re also a member of the association… Honestly, I can’t see anything good in letting her stay by your side.”

As his words came out, the temperature in the room seemed to drop significantly.

A cold glint flashed through Yun Lintian’s eyes as he spoke. “Senior. I called you Senior because I respect you as an elder, not because I think you are stronger than me.”

“If my sister said she didn’t want to be your disciple, you should accept it and move on. Be magnanimous as you should. Instead, you think I would delay her future without knowing my actual capability. Don’t you think it’s a bit funny?”

Without giving Zhi Dazun a chance to speak, Yun Lintian said further. “Besides, I had already told her to consider your offer carefully. If it was others, I would tell her to ignore it for sure as it was nothing but a waste of saliva.”

“Perhaps President Zhi didn’t tell you clearly what I could do. And your previous compliment on me was simply a perfunctory word.” Yun Lintian’s eyes turned sharp as he stared straight into Zhi Dazun’s eyes. “You, who have a lofty status, couldn’t even refine a mere Thousand Calamities Pill. By what rights do you think I couldn’t give her a better future?”

“Of course, if you don’t believe that, I can refine it. How about we make a bet? If I lose, we will worship you as our master, but if I win, you will be my assistant, helping me refine a pill. Do you dare?”

Yun Lintian’s series of remarks immediately stunned everyone in the room. Especially the last part. He actually challenged Zhi Dazun! Had he gone crazy?

“How dare you!?” The young woman’s aura erupted as Yun Lintian’s voice fell. Her eyes were terribly cold as she stared at Yun Lintian.

Yun Lintian didn’t seem to disturb by her aura. He glanced at her and thundered. “Get down!”

All of a sudden, the young woman felt as though a vast mountain appeared above her head and pressed her back to her seat with no way to resist.

“You!” The young woman looked at Yun Lintian in horror. She was a genuine Divine Transformation Realm warrior, yet she was completely suppressed by a mere Divine Spirit Realm’s junior. How could it be possible!?

“That’s enough.” Zhi Dazun said coldly, and his aura burst out, blasting Yun Lintian’s oppressive aura away.

At the same time, Qin Mei stepped forward and formed a profound defense around Yun Lintian and Ning Yue, entirely blocking Zhi Dazun’s aura.

She looked at Zhi Dazun and said calmly. “You shouldn’t interfere with their battle.”

Zhi Dazun’s brows raised slightly but he didn’t retract his aura. Although he was a whole realm above Qin Mei’s, if she wanted to break out and bring Yun Lintian and Ning Yue away, he would have no way to stop her. Not to mention the Mystic Auction House wasn’t far away from here.

“Everyone, please raise your hands and talk this out peacefully.” Zhi Wei stepped forward. “Uncle, it’s my fault that I didn’t tell you clearly before. Can you please retract your aura first and listen to me?”

Zhi Dazun glanced at his nephew for a while, and his aura disappeared. 𝓫𝓭𝓸𝓋𝓁．𝓬𝓸𝓂

Qin Mei looked at Yun Lintian and saw the latter nod. She then stepped back and retracted her aura.

Zhi Wei sighed in relief and turned to Zhi Dazun. “Back then, I didn’t tell Uncle Yu in detail because I thought it would be better to see it himself. I didn’t expect Uncle Yu to send you over, Uncle.”

“Vice President Lin, in fact, had successfully refined a Divine King rank pill in the Soul Rejuvenating Pill in front of me.”

“What!?” The young woman exclaimed in shock.
