Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 602 Three Questions



After the villagers dispersed, the atmosphere inside Guchang’s house became relaxed. Fan was so excited to see his father showing his might once again. “Father, how are you?”

Guchang gave a rare smile as he replied. “I’m good.” He turned to Yun Lintian and asked with a serious expression. “You can tell me. What do you want in return?”

Although Guchang’s strength hadn’t yet fully recovered, he could clearly see Yun Lintian possessed the ability to help him.

Yun Lintian raised three fingers. “I want to ask Senior three questions in return.”

A strange light flashed through Guchang’s eyes. He beckoned with his chin. “Ask away. I will try my best to answer you.”

“The first question I want to ask Senior is. Since no one has ever discovered the Tree of Life. Where did all the rumors come from?” Yun Lintian asked with a weird expression.

Guchang suddenly let out shallow laughter. “I have no idea as well. As far as I know, the rumors have been circulated for more than three thousand years. It was said a group of people had stumbled into a mysterious space that was full of vitality. In the heart of the space, there was a colossus tree that could not see the top of it.”

“One of them was badly injured and accidentally took a sip of the dew on the tree leaf. All of his wounds, including the missing organs, had miraculously recovered. His lifespan increased drastically. It was at that moment did they know the tree in front of them was a peerless treasure.”

Guchang paused for a moment and said further. “Naturally, they had become greedy and tried to take the tree with them. However, before they could start, a mysterious figure appeared to stop them and even tried to kill them. In the end, two out of seven managed to escape from that place with two tree branches as proof. Since then, people around the world never stop looking for it.” 𝗼𝐯𝐥.𝗻𝐭

“I see.” Yun Lintian touched his chin with a thoughtful expression.

From the information he got from Tian Zuo, the Tree of Life was different from other Beyond Heaven Relics. It wasn’t located in the mythical realm like others but rather hiding in plain sight. To be able to stay hidden until now, Yun Lintian didn’t know what kind of method was used.

Yun Lintian had naturally asked Hongyue about this, but she told him that she had no idea about the guardian of the Tree of Life. However, she guessed that the guardian should be divine beings from the Heavenly Wood Clan.

Back then, when Yun Lintian heard this, he went straight to the Library and found a book related to the Heavenly Wood Clan. The appearance of the Heavenly Wood clansmen shocked Yun Lintian greatly as they resembled an elf in the fantasy world.

“That’s why I told you to leave. Don’t waste time here.” Guchang said with a serious expression.

Guchang’s voice brought Yun Lintian out of his contemplation. He smiled faintly and said. “Thank you for your concern, Senior. I want to try for a month, and I will leave afterward.”

Guchang didn’t say anything further. He already gave Yun Lintian a warning. Whether Yun Lintian wanted to continue. It’s up to him.

Yun Lintian thought for a moment and asked. “The second question is. What are the relationships between the nine clans? So that I could avoid trouble.”

Guchang replied with a mocking smile. “Their relationships can be described in one word, chaos… People on other continents always believe that the Nine Profound Beast Clans were living in a harmonious manner, but in fact, they couldn’t wait to kill each other every day.”

Somehow, Yun Lintian could perceive a deep hatred in Guchang’s voice… Perhaps Guchang was a renowned figure in the past? Yun Lintian couldn’t help thinking of the strange runes on Fan’s bones. There must be a bloody plot behind this.

Yun Lintian asked cautiously. “Please forgive me for asking this, Senior. I’ve accidentally seen the strange runes on Senior’s bones earlier. I don’t know what they are?”

“Is this your third question?” Guchang’s face sank slightly.

Yun Lintian shook his head. “If it’s inconvenient, then Senior doesn’t have to answer me.”

Seeing Guchang silent, Yun Lintian decided to change the topic. “My third question is, does Senior know what happened to the Fire Cloud Rat Clan? Before coming here, I’ve studied about the Nine Profound Beast Palace a bit. From what I heard, the Fire Cloud Rat Clan should be ranked in the top three. How did their territory reduce to this point?”

Guchang’s brows raised slightly. “Why are you asking this?… All of your three questions aren’t worth the price at all.”

Yun Lintian replied. casually. “For me, it’s worth it.”

Guchang took a deep look at Yun Lintian and started to explain. “The Fire Cloud Rat Clan was indeed powerful alongside the Sky Qilin Clan. However, thousands of years ago, their sole heir had mysteriously disappeared. As a result, their main lineage suffered heavily and was taken over by the side lineage. Obviously, these people aren’t talented enough compared to the main lineage. They simply sell everything they could in exchange for some useless resources.”

Speaking to this point, a trace of reminiscence appeared in the depth of his eyes. Guchang let out a long sigh. “What a pity.”

Hearing this, Yun Lintian immediately figured out everything. Because of the absence of Little Flame, the Fire Cloud Rat Clan had lost the one and only hope of continuing their domination and was reduced to this point. Yun Lintian didn’t know how Little Flame would feel if he knew this.

Yun Lintian sighed softly and said. “I’ll start treating Senior now. Before that, please take this pill.” He handed a jade bottle to Guchang, and the latter poured a small scarlet pill out before swallowing it without hesitation.

Yun Lintian once again pinned the silver needles on Guchang’s profound entrances and began to expel the Life Eroding Poison bit by bit.
