Chapter 500 - The Crisis Of The Village
"However, all the Saints and Monarchs you have encountered until now. None of them possess a conceptual intent." Hongyue said.
"None of them? How did they break through into their current realm, then?" Yun Lintian was a bit confused.
"What they have right now is called a pseudo-conceptual intent," Hongyue answered. "The true conceptual intent would carry the user's emotion and be able to transform it into power. For example, you can use your anger to suppress the enemy or use your sorrow to control the opponent's mind. Didn't you experience it earlier?"
Yun Lintian was enlightened. He didn't expect it would be this complicated. Conceptual intent? This was the first time he heard about it.
Thinking about the experience he went through earlier, Yun Lintian now fully understood why Hongyue was so sure this Rain Woman was standing at the pinnacle of this world.
"I'm curious. Judging from your words, this rain didn't hurt anyone aside from scaring profound beasts away? It doesn't make sense at all. Why would she do this?" Hongyue doubted.
Yun Lintian responded. "How would I know? From the villager's words, it has been like this for more than five hundred years now."
Hongyue went silent for a moment and said. "If you see this person, don't forget to call me. Perhaps there would be a surprise."
"What surprise?" Yun Lintian frowned slightly. "Can you stop your riddles?"
Hongyue laughed slightly as she replied. "I'm busy now. Go away."
Yun Lintian was speechless. He didn't insist on this topic further and looked at the rain, falling into deep thoughts.

The following day, Yun Lintian woke up and went to the backyard to take fresh air. The rain had now stopped, leaving behind an aroma of nature to linger in the air.
It wasn't Yun Lintian alone who came here. At this moment, Yu Xiaoya and Yu Xiaolu were performing a set of punches and kicks under Yu Lang's guidance. Since they got the profound arts from Yun Lintian's last night, they had studied them the entire night and couldn't wait to start training.
Yu Lang saw Yun Lintian coming. He nodded his head with a smile and said. "Good morning, Senior Mu."
Yu Xiaoya and Yu Xiaolu abruptly stopped their actions and turned to greet Yun Lintian.
"How come all of you are up this early?" Yun Lintian said with a smile.
Yu Xiaolu had a relatively cheerful personality. She laughed and said. "It couldn't be helped, Brother Mu. We couldn't wait to start right away."
"It's good, but practice takes time. No need to push yourself too much." Yun Lintian said. He picked a long twig on the ground up and motioned with his chin. "Go on. I'll help you correct it."
Yu Xiaoya and Yu Xiaolu were overjoyed. They hurriedly performed according to the Blue Spring Art.
"You did it wrong here. You need to restrain your shoulder when punching out." Yun Lintian used the twig to tap on Yu Xiaoya's right shoulder, correcting her punching posture.
"I understand now." Yu Xiaoya's eyes lit up when she punched out after the correction. She could feel her movement had become smooth and stronger.
Yun Lintian turned to Yu Xiaolu and helped her adjust her posture.
On the side, Yu Lang looked at the scene gratefully. Although the time he came into contact with Yun Lintian was short, he could see the latter was genuine and did not despise the weak like other practitioners. It was unbelievable that he could meet such a person.
Time passed by quickly. Two hours later, Yu Xiaoya and Yu Xiaolu had made progress and successfully broke through to the tenth level of Foundation Profound Realm from the ninth level. They were so excited and kept bowing to Yun Lintian. At this rate, reaching the Essence Profound Realm wouldn't be a problem at all.
"That's it for today. You have to make sure that your foundation is solid before aiming for the next breakthrough. Otherwise, your power ceiling would be limited. At that time, if you want to go further, it would be extremely difficult. Unless you practice everything all over again from the beginning." Yun Lintian threw the twig away and gave them a warning.
Yu Xiaoya and Yu Xiaolu immediately calmed down from the ecstasy state and nodded their heads solemnly. "Understood."
Suddenly, a young man in his twenties ran to the backyard and hurriedly looked for Yu Lang. "Village Head Yu, several carriages are coming in our village's direction. They should be those people back then."
The expressions of Yu Lang and his two daughters changed slightly upon hearing this.
"Father…" Yu Xiaoya looked at her father worriedly.
Yu Lang waved his hand and said. "You two stay here. Do not come out no matter what happens, understand?"
Yu Xiaoya and Yu Xiaolu reluctantly nodded their heads. "Understood. Be careful, Father."
Yun Lintian listened to their conversation and couldn't help asking out of curiosity. "What happened?"
Yu Lang went silent for a moment and said. "I'm afraid something bad is going to happen to our village soon… Senior Mu, if something really happened, can you please take my daughters away from this place?"
Yun Lintian frowned in confusion. He didn't say anything and spread his Spiritual Sense out. Instantly, he saw seven luxury carriages entering the village. Their postures were extremely arrogant as they galloped into the village at full speed, causing several houses along the path to blow away.
Yu Lang's face became unsightly when he heard breaking and wailing sounds reverberating. Without thinking further, he quickly rushed out of the courtyard and shouted at the group of carriages. "Stop!"
The leading carriage immediately stopped right before Yu Lang's courtyard. A coachman glanced down at Yu Lang and asked coldly. "Long time no see, Village Head Yu."
Yu Lang didn't say anything. He looked over the carriage and saw several villagers knelt on the ground tremblingly. Their faces were full of horror, and they did not dare to look at the group of carriages.
Yu Lang clenched his fists tightly. His eyes turned bloodshot as he stared at the coachman. "Why are you doing this?"
A weird expression appeared on the coachman's face as he said. "Why? Do I need a reason to trample an ant?" He let out a chuckle and continued. "Last time, we didn't do anything to all of you here because someone stopped us. However, this time is different.. You better tell us honestly about Rain Woman."
