Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 1947 Proud Dragon (1)

?Dongfang Chen raised his hand to stop his men and donned a smile as he turned around. “My dear sister…”

Suddenly, Dongfang Chen’s smile faltered when he saw the man standing beside Dongfang Xue.

“P-President,” he stammered, forcing a smile.

Dongfang Hao ignored Dongfang Chen and politely addressed Yun Lintian. “You must be our benefactors. Thank you for rescuing my daughter from the pirates.”

Dongfang Chen was bewildered. He stared at Dongfang Hao in disbelief. The respected president of the Far East Trading Group was actually humbling himself in front of these outsiders.

Meanwhile, Dongfang Xue and Fu Yong exchanged shocked glances. They couldn’t understand the situation unfolding before them.

Yun Lintian eyed the newcomer with a hint of confusion. He lowered his spear and cupped his fists. “Junior Yun Lintian greets Senior Dongfang. It was merely a coincidence. The pirates instigated the conflict and attacked me first. I had to protect myself.”

“There’s no need for modesty. My daughter would have been in dire straits without your intervention,” Dongfang Hao said with a smile.

For some reason, a chill ran down Dongfang Chen’s spine. While he was certain Dongfang Hao wouldn’t dare to kill him, anything remained possible.

“President…” Dongfang Chen began, mustering his courage to speak.

However, Dongfang Hao cut him off. “You must be weary from the journey. Why don’t you take some rest first?”

Dongfang Chen swallowed his words. He glanced at Yun Lintian before responding, “Understood. I’ll excuse myself first.”

With that, he turned and walked away, followed closely by Lang Sen and his companions.

“I apologize. I didn’t anticipate his direct arrival,” Dongfang Xue stepped forward and said apologetically.

“It’s no trouble, Miss Dongfang,” Yun Lintian assured her.

“If you hadn’t intervened, Dongfang Chen and his followers would have lost their lives here,” Dongfang Hao stated calmly.

Dongfang Xue and Fu Yong were speechless.

Yun Lintian looked at Dongfang Hao with curiosity. “Senior, do you know me?”

Dongfang Hao shook his head. “I haven’t met you before, but I am acquainted with your master and the Dragon Princess.”

Yun Lintian exchanged a glance with Yun Yi. .

“Let’s continue this conversation inside,” Dongfang Hao gestured and walked towards the courtyard.

“Do you know anything?” Yun Lintian glanced at Yun Yi.

“No idea. Master never mentioned anything about this,” Yun Yi frowned deeply.

“Well, we’ll find out soon,” Yun Lintian replied, following Dongfang Hao into the courtyard without further comment.

It wouldn’t surprise him if Dongfang Hao knew about the Beyond Heaven King, but knowing Long Qingxuan was different. She had never left the Divine Realm and knew almost nothing of the realms beyond. .

It was nearly impossible for her to be known by Dongfang Hao and the people here.

“She should have concealed her aura better,” Zhang Yu said gently.

“It’s already happened. Let’s not dwell on it,” Yun Lintian replied, not blaming Long Qingxuan for unintentionally revealing her dragon’s aura.

“You’ve been quite lenient with her. Are you certain there’s nothing going on between the two of you?” Zhang Yu scrutinized Yun Lintian, searching for hints in his expression.

Yun Lintian remained silent and continued walking.

Dongfang Hao took a seat at a luxurious table, prepared a set of tea, and personally poured cups for everyone.

“Thank you,” Yun Lintian acknowledged, accepting the cup.

Dongfang Hao glanced at Fu Yong, prompting him to leave. Fu Yong swiftly departed and activated an isolation formation before his exit.

“Many years ago, while traveling the Nine Heavens Realm, I crossed paths with Senior Yun. Despite his impressive strength, I was particularly struck by his resourcefulness. In truth, without his aid, I would likely remain trapped within the God Tomb,” Dongfang Hao began.

Yun Lintian was taken aback. He knew the Beyond Heaven King had visited the Nine Heavens Realm but was unaware of a visit to the God Tomb.

As far as he understood, the Beyond Heaven King’s power wouldn’t stand up to the apex figures in the Nine Heavens Realm, particularly someone like Dongfang Hao. How could the Beyond Heaven King have survived surrounded by such powerful beings?

“Due to restrictions and repercussions from the God Tomb, I can’t go into detail,” Dongfang Hao continued. “However, I can tell you he saved countless lives. Many owed their survival to him that day.”

“But after leaving the God Tomb, these same people, consumed by greed, sought to hunt him down. Fortunately, a few individuals, mindful of their debt, aided his escape.”

“You were one of them?” Yun Yi queried bluntly.

Dongfang Hao smiled and replied, “I wouldn’t claim such credit. Compared to what he did for me, assisting his escape barely qualifies as repayment.”

“Then, Senior, how do you know about me and the Dragon Princess?” Yun Lintian inquired directly.

“I didn’t,” Dongfang Hao clarified. “Your master informed me of everything. He said that his successor would someday appear in the Great Expanse alongside the Dragon Princess.”

Yun Lintian furrowed his brow deeply. While he knew the Beyond Heaven King was the God of Fate’s heir, he didn’t believe he could predict events with such precision.

Yun Lintian was currently considered the God of Fate’s inheritor, yet he possessed no divination knowledge. How could the Beyond Heaven King do it? Something was missing here.

“Upon hearing from my daughter about a woman in your group possessing the Azure Dragon God’s aura,” Dongfang Hao explained, casting a glance toward Long Qingxuan’s room, “I knew it was her, especially considering your destination, the Nine Heavens Realm.”

“What else did he tell you, Senior?” Yun Lintian pressed.

“He requested your safe passage to the Nine Heavens Realm and emphasized the importance of staying away from the Dragon God Realm,” Dongfang Hao answered.

“What happened to the Dragon God Realm?” Yun Lintian couldn’t help but ask.

“The Dragon God Realm survived the Primordial War thanks to the protection of the Primordial Azure Dragon God,” Dongfang Hao began, explaining the situation. “However, with the departure of the Dragon God, internal conflict arose.”

“One faction remained fiercely loyal to the Dragon God, while the other believed they should replace the deity,” he continued, his gaze settling on Yun Lintian. “Therefore, the Dragon Princess’ arrival will undoubtedly ignite a bloody conflict.”

“So, it’s a palace conflict, then?” Yun Lintian nodded slowly in understanding.

“The current Dragon God Realm is led by seven dragon gods, with Long Aotian, their leader, proclaiming himself as the new Dragon God,” Dongfang Hao elaborated.

“Believe me, you wouldn’t want to meet him,” Dongfang Hao advised with a hint of seriousness.
