Chapter 498 - Act Of Kindness
"This is so convenient. Next time, I can simply hide here and watch the outside world." Yun Lintian couldn't help become excited. With this ability, his safety would increase by leaps and bounds. When he faced an omnipotent enemy in the future, he could escape to the Land of Beyond Heaven and wait until the enemy went away.
Yun Ruanyu was amazed by this, but she soon discovered a flaw. She turned to Hongyue and asked. "Could people on the outside detect this?"
Surprisingly, Hongyue shook her head gently and replied. "No... At least no one in this world could."
"What do you mean by that? People in the Divine World could do it?" Yun Lintian asked curiously.
Hongyue smiled and explained. "Of course, there would be someone who could do it. You have no idea how powerful divinities are. They could easily reduce this Azure World into nothingness with just a snap of their fingers. Detecting unusual spiritual connections is not difficult for them… You will understand when you reach that realm."
Hongyue paused for a second and changed the topic. "Let's not talk about this further. Ruanyu, right? Go gather everyone, including those pitiful children. I will give them the first lesson." She then turned to Yun Lintian and waved her hand impatiently. "As for you, just leave already."
Yun Lintian was speechless. He gave the nod to everyone and vanished into the Gate of Beyond Heaven.
Knock! Knock!
As Yun Lintian returned to the guest room, he heard a knocking sound on the door. He quickly deactivated the formation and went to open the door.
"Sorry for disturbing your rest, Brother Mu. I'm here to inform you that my grandfather wants to see you. However, it's fine if you don't want to see him." Yu Xiaoya was standing behind the door and hurriedly said.
Seeing Yun Lintian's puzzled expression, Yu Xiaoya explained further. "There's no urgent matter. Mainly, my grandfather wants to express his gratitude for saving us sisters."
"I see." Yun Lintian thought for a moment and said. "Let's see him." Since he would stay here for a few days, it would be better to get to know people.
A while later, Yun Lintian followed Yu Xiaoya to the living room and saw a white-haired old man sitting calmly on the wooden chair with Yu Lang and Yu Xiaolu on his side. Judging from his breath, his actual age should be more than a hundred years. With his strength of the Spirit Profound Realm's peak, he was definitely the strongest person in this village.
The old man slowly turned to look at Yun Lintian. An amiable smile appeared on his face as he rose to his feet. "Welcome to your Rain Village, Senior Mu. My name is Yu Teng."
Yun Lintian cupped his fists and said. "There's no need to be polite, Grandpa Yu. You are older than me. Please call me by my name directly."
The old man, Yu Teng, shook his head slightly. "I don't dare, I don't dare. In this world, we speak with strength, not by age. It would be inappropriate if I take advantage of my age to call Senior Mu's name directly."
Hearing this, Yu's sisters glanced at each other and lowered their heads in embarrassment. While their father and grandfather called Yun Lintian Senior Mu, they were actually called him Brother Mu. Wouldn't this mean they have higher seniority than their father and grandfather?
Yun Lintian sighed softly. Although he has lived in this world for several years now, he still felt uncomfortable about this kind of seniority. Being called senior by someone who could be his grandfather was too weird.
Yun Lintian smiled and said. "Then, I won't insist further."
"Please sit down, Senior." Yu Teng made an invitation gesture and sat back in his seat after Yun Lintian had sat down. He personally poured a cup of precious tea that he was unwilling to drink before for Yun Lintian and said. "I heard everything about your kind deed. We don't have anything to repay Senior. Please accept this old man's bow."
Following that, Yu Teng stood up and bowed ninety degrees to Yun Lintian.
Yun Lintian hurriedly released profound energy to help Yu Teng up and said. "As I said before, there's no need to be polite, Grandpa Yu. I didn't spend much effort to save Sister Xiaoya and Xiaolu. It's unnecessary to repay anything to me. If you continue to act like this, I'm afraid I have to leave now."
An admiration appeared in Yu Teng's cloudy eyes. He nodded his head firmly. "Understood. I won't mention this again."
Yun Lintian didn't like this kind of restraint atmosphere. He quickly changed the topic. "Grandpa Yu must be the strongest person in this place. Am I correct?"
Yu Teng sat back in his seat and replied. "Yes." He sighed softly and continued. "This old man's strength isn't worth mentioning in front of anyone."
Yu Teng had gone through up and down through hundred years of life. He naturally knew that Spirit Profound Realm practitioner was nothing but a mere ant in this world. The title of the strongest person in the village was too ridiculous.
Yun Lintian could see a trace of worry in Yu Teng's eyes. He understood what the source of his worry was. He looked at Yu Xiaoya and Yu Xiaolu and said. "I planned to give Sister Xiaoya and Xiaolu a profound art earlier, but I was interrupted first. I will give it to you now."
He took out the Blue Spring Art book and placed it in front of Yu Xiaoya. Before Yu Lang and Yu Teng could say anything, Yun Lintian spoke first. "Don't refuse it. Grandpa Yu and Uncle Yu should understand well that your current strength is not enough to protect this village. This place is indeed being protected by Rain Woman currently, but what if she disappeared one day? At that time, this place would be surrounded by countless dangers… Besides, this profound art is not expensive and totally useless to me.. It is better to give to someone who needed it."
