Myth Beyond Heaven

The scene where Nantian Fengyu hung on Yun Lintian’s body was seen not only by Murong Ziwei and Jun Rumeng but also by Tong Liya and the others, who followed Nantian Fengyu in order to greet her.

“Who is that person?” Xue Lou’er asked in confusion. She couldn’t believe the high and mighty Divine Phoenix True Inheritor actually hugged a man so affectionately in public.

On the side, Situ Yuanzhi frowned deeply. He noticed Tong Liya and Wen Zishan’s weird expressions and seemed to think of something. His expression changed drastically. “Don’t tell me. He is the person who rejected you, Saintess Tong?”

Tong Liya remained silent for a moment and nodded gently. “It’s him.”

“What!?” Xue Lou’er exclaimed in shock. Thinking that she wanted to slap him left and right, her face immediately turned pale. Thankfully, she said in private and hadn’t yet offended Yun Lintian.

“What is his background exactly?” Situ Yuanzhi watched Yun Lintian enter the restaurant with a thoughtful expression. .

At first, he planned to do something on Yun Lintian to gain favor from Tong Liya, but he had to think twice now. Until he could figure out the relationship between Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu, he wouldn’t be stupid enough to offend him.

Wen Zishan was different. He remembered that Nantian Fengyu had gone to the Northern Continent for the past few years. Since she called Yun Lintian a junior brother, this meant Yun Lintian was likely to come from the Northern Continent.

Thinking of this, Wen Zishan turned to Sun Hao and said. “Go prepare a gift.”

Sun Hao was taken aback and then understood his young master’s intention. He quickly went to a treasure pavilion to buy a gift.

Situ Yuanzhi’s eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at Wen Zishan. Without thinking further, he sent a sound transmission to his subordinates, telling them to get a gift for him.

Xue Lou’er was no different. She knew that befriending Yun Lintian was the right decision to make. Anyway, she had no grudge against him from the beginning.

However, Tong Liya was different. It could be said she had offended Yun Lintian previously. It was inappropriate to appear in front of him again. At least, not today.

Standing behind her, Little Hong’s face was pale as paper. Compared to Tong Liya, she had completely offended Yun Lintian. If he wanted to take revenge, it was estimated that the Plum Mountain Sect wouldn’t hesitate to hand her over.

Tong Liya turned around to look at Little Hong and said softly. “Don’t worry. From my observation, he’s not a petty person. You don’t have to be afraid he would get back to you.”

Little Hong bit her lips and lowered her head agitatedly. Even Tong Liya said so. She didn’t feel at ease in the slightest.

Wen Zishan usually didn’t care about Tong Liya, but he felt it was better to help her out. After all, the Plum Mountain Sect and his Eternal Sword Sect had a good relationship.

He said. “You should prepare a gift and come with us, Saintess.”

Tong Liya was slightly surprised to hear this from Wen Zishan. She thought for a moment and said. “Alright.” She turned to Little Hong and told her to pick a good gift.

While the four heavenly geniuses were discussing, Yun Lintian opened a private room and ordered several dishes for Nantian Fengyu.

“Can you tell me now? Why did you have to fake your death? You know? We sisters are worried about you to death.” Nantian Fengyu said while taking a big bite of a grilled chicken drumstick. The previous grievance had long disappeared with the help of delicacies.

“Long story short, I did it to avoid being targeted by Poison Valley.” Yun Lintian replied casually while sipping a tea.

Nantian Fengyu’s brows creased together, and she pouted in dissatisfaction. “Why don’t you tell us? Are you looking down on your sisters?”

Yun Lintian shook his head. “It’s not like that, Fifth Sister. There are many things behind it.”

“You tell me then.” Nantian Fengyu said and took another bite.

Yun Lintian went silent for a moment, organizing the words.

Meanwhile, Mu Qiuxue calmly listened to the conversation on the side. She seemed to connect the dots one by one and had a better understanding of Yun Lintian’s origin.

Yun Lintian said after a short ponder. “Do you know about the Peng clan, Fifth Sister?”

Nantian Fengyu shook her head with an innocent expression. Aside from eating and sleeping, she didn’t seem to care about anything when she was there.

Yun Lintian was speechless. “Basically, the Peng clan is in cahoot with Poison Valley, and I am the one who kept interrupting their plans. Especially the Sky Fall Dragon’s incident. That’s why they put me on the killing list.”

“Principal Tian believes that I am not ready to face them yet. Hence, he came up with this faking death plan and secretly sent me to the Central Continent.”

“What? They actually dared to target you? Unforgivable! Hmph!” Nantian Fengyu got angry upon hearing this, but she didn’t forget to bite the drumstick. “Then why are you appearing here?”

Yun Lintian thought it was no problem to tell Nantian Fengyu. He began to narrate his journey to the Western Continent and the conflict between him and Du Huanfeng.

Bang!

Nantian Fengyu slammed the chicken bone on the plate and said coldly. “Myriad Pill Palace, right? Dares to hurt my Junior Brother. They are simply courting death!”

Yun Lintian’s heart was warmed, seeing Nantian Fengyu’s cute appearance. It felt good being protected sometimes.

He smiled and said. “Don’t worry, Fifth Sister. I can handle this.” He changed the topic. “How are Master and the other sisters?”

“They were fine before I left.” Nantian Fengyu said. She suddenly thought of something and continued. “Right. Starry Hall Master Hong Wuya has unfortunately passed away.”

“What!?” Yun Lintian was shocked. “How could it happen?”

Nantian Fengyu shook her head. “I don’t know much about the detail, but I heard that he was severely injured by the Northern Endless Sea Lord and later got assassinated by someone… I also heard that Palace Master Han has frozen his body. I don’t know what she wants to do.”
