Myth Beyond Heaven

Clang!

A hammer in Fei Mao's hand fell on the ground as he received the news of Yun Lintian's death. His face was pale as a white sheet with disbelief was written all over it.

"Is… is it true, Teacher Tie?" Fei Mao asked in difficulty. His voice was hoarse as he was on the verge of crying.

Tie Shan let out a long sigh and said. "It has been confirmed that he didn't make it out before the mythical realm entrance exploded… Haah… heaven is jealous of a genius."

Thud!

Fei Mao slumped on the ground and started sobbing. He and Yun Lintian might know each other for a short period. He had always regarded Yun Lintian as his good brother. How could he not be sad?

"I should stop him… I…" Fei Mao blamed himself. If he prevented Yun Lintian from going back then, this would not happen at all.

Tie Shan comforted. "This is not your fault… Everyone has their own fate. You cannot interfere with it." Tie Shan let Fei Mao cry for a while and added. "I'll give you a few days of rest. Come back when you are ready."

Tie Shan took a deep look at Fei Mao and prepared to leave. However, Fei Mao suddenly stopped crying and got up from the ground. His eyes turned resolute as he said. "No, Teacher. I won't take a rest."

Tie Shan was surprised and waited for Fei Mao's following sentence.

Fei Mao clenched his fists and said solemnly. "Brother Yun once told me that I will certainly become a top forging master in the future. I don't want to let him down."

An appreciative smile appeared on Tie Shan's face. He patted Fei Mao's shoulder and said. "Good! Do you want to worship me as your master?"

Fei Mao was stunned for a moment and hurriedly knelt, kowtowing three times, and said. "Disciple Fei Mao greets Master."

Nantian Fengyu appeared in her residence that Yun Lintian built for her. She sighed softly and muttered to herself. "I did everything I could now. You should come out and face reality."

A moment later, her expression gradually changed. The earlier cold and domineering temperament had become the usual immature, on the verge of crying.

She threw herself onto the bed and covered her head with a blanket, sobbing loudly. "Wuuuu… Junior brother, why did you leave your Fifth Sister alone?"

On the outside, Murong Xue, Long Feiyan, and Wu Qingcheng glanced at each other and heaved a sigh of relief at the same time. If Divine Phoenix continued to show up, they didn't know how to get along with her further.

Murong Xue looked at Wu Qingcheng and said with a serious expression. "Remember. Don't provoke her again. Otherwise, I could only send your body back to your father."

Wu Qingcheng pouted in dissatisfaction. "You are really good, Second Sister. Did you know about this for all this time?… If I know about this, I won't dare to mess with her even if I have ten lives."

Murong Xue shook her head slightly. "I only heard about it before, but I didn't expect it to be true."

"She is too strong. My grandfather is not her opponent at all." Long Feiyan suddenly said. 

Murong Xue and Wu Qingcheng looked at her in surprise. Long Feiyan had always regarded her grandfather as the strongest person in this world and refused to believe anyone could fight him. It was rare to see her admit it honestly like this. It seemed she was totally convinced by Divine Phoenix now.

Wu Qingcheng glanced at Murong Xue and asked. "Second Sister, what do you think about our junior brother?"

"He's still alive." Murong Xue's answer surprised Wu Qingcheng and Long Feiyan. She seemed to be full of confidence as she spoke.

"Why are you so sure?" Wu Qingcheng asked curiously.

Murong Xue smiled faintly and replied. "I can feel the token I gave him… In fact, I was hurriedly to see Master because I wanted to tell her about this, but I didn't dare to say it in front of Lord Phoenix."

The expressions of Long Feiyan and Wu Qingcheng gradually relaxed upon hearing this. It was good to know Yun Lintian was still alive and kicking.

"Don't be relaxed too soon. We still have the Wang clan's matter waiting for us." Murong Xue gave them a reminder.

A hesitation appeared on Wu Qingcheng's face. It remained like that until she let out a long sigh and said. "Worst case. I can ask my father for help."

Murong Xue's brows raised in surprise as she asked. "I'm surprised that you are willing to do this. Did your brain turn upside down because of Lord Phoenix's attack?"

Wu Qingcheng smiled wryly and said. "It can't be helped. This is the one and only way I can do for us." She changed the topic and asked. "Should we tell Fifth Sister about it?"

Murong Xue thought for a moment and patted Wu Qingcheng's shoulder. "I'll leave this duty to you." Afterward, she turned around and walked toward her residence.

Wu Qingcheng was stunned for a second and turned to look at Long Feiyan as though she was asking for help. 

Long Feiyan gave a rare smile and raised her fist. "Fighting!" Following that, she quickly got into her residence, leaving Wu Qingcheng stood dumbly behind.

While everyone was in sorrow, the person in their concern was currently standing in front of an enormous cave's entrance that was tightly shut by countless ice crystals. 

"This is the Eternal Frozen cave." Principal Tian said calmly. His beard was swayed violently by a fierce blizzard around him. 

"We can't enter?" Yun Lintian looked at the various shaped ice crystals in disappointment. It seemed he had no chance to see Yun Qianxue before leaving.

"Don't worry. If she could enter the cave, it meant she was accepted by the cave guardian. There's no danger for her." Principal Tian said and glanced at Yun Lintian. A surprise appeared on his face upon seeing he was fine without using his profound energy.

Yun Lintian's mind was full of Yun Qianxue's wellbeing at the moment. He was completely unaware of his unusual cold resistance. He didn't need to use profound energy to resist the blizzard at all.

It was at this moment did Principal Tian notice Yun Lintian's strength.. A trace of doubt flashed across his eyes briefly and disappeared in the next moment.
