Myth Beyond Heaven

“D… daughter?” Lu Bo trembled as he stared at his daughter, Little Qing, in disbelief. If it wasn’t because he was sane enough, he would think he was dreaming.

“Father.” Little Qing choked up. She stepped forward and plunged herself into Lu Bo’s arms. “I thought I would never have a chance to see you again.”

Lu Bo lifted his trembling hand to pat his daughter’s back. “It’s good that you’re alive. It’s good…”

Tears ran along Lu Bo’s wrinkled cheeks as he spoke.

Yun Lintian and the others watched this touching scene silently. No matter how high your strength was, a family connection would still be the hardest thing to cut off.

Zhou Ya and her daughter, Tang Huifang, wiped the tears from their eyes. They were happy for Lu Bo.

After a while, Lu Bo shifted his gaze to Tang Suyin. His eyes widened open in shock, and he hurriedly said. “Servant Lu Bo greets Eldest Miss. This servant knows that you’re still alive.”

Zhou Ya was startled upon hearing this. She looked at Tang Suyin and did not know what to say. Although she was a daughter-in-law of the Tang Clan, she had never met any Tang Clan descendant. Since Lu Bo called Tang Suyin “Eldest Miss,” she immediately knew her identity.

“Little Girl Zhou Ya greets Eldest Aunt.” Zhou Ya said nervously. “This is my daughter, Tang Huifang.”

Tang Huifang was clever enough. She quickly bowed her head to Tang Suyin. “Hello, grandaunt. My name is Tang Huifang.”

Tang Suyin smiled warmly. “Since we’re a family, there’s no need to be polite.” She looked at Tang Huifang for a moment and said softly. “Your eyes are similar to my brother’s. I don’t have anything to gift you except for this.”

She walked forward and handed a small hairpin with a phoenix shape to Tang Huifang. One could see it was a high-rank protective artifact.

The latter hesitated briefly and politely accepted it. “Thank you, grandaunt.”

“Eldest Miss, may I ask what your next plan is?” Lu Bo asked.

Tang Suyin replied immediately. “I’ve promised Young Master Yun to stay in his sect. Of course, you can choose your own way. The Tang Clan has long disappeared. There’s no need to further treat yourself as the clan’s servant.”

Lu Bo responded firmly. “This servant is born in the Tang Clan, and I will die as the Tang Clan’s person. Please let me serve you.” 𝘦𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝗇𝓔t

“Alright.” Tang Suyin didn’t force him.

Seeing the Tang Clan’s matter had been settled, Nantian Xuanyu looked at Yun Lintian and said. “Please come with me. I have something to tell you about the Northern Continent’s situation.”

Yun Lintian’s expression changed slightly. He opened his hand and said. “Please.”

Nantian Xuanyu led everyone into the inner hall and arranged a seat for them.

She didn’t waste time and went straight to the point. “Before I say anything, please prepare your mind.”

Yun Lintian’s brows raised. “Is the situation serious?”

Since he came out of the Skymist Ancient City, he hadn’t inquired about the situation yet.

Nantian Xuanyu nodded. “The situation is not optimistic. The profound beast horde has completely destroyed all the outer cities around the continent. Even though I’ve sent people to help, it can only delay the situation at most. The number of profound beasts is too large, and there are a lot of Monarch-level ones among them. The Poison Valley is determined to win it this time.”

Yun Lintian frowned deeply. According to his estimation, it shouldn’t be this fast. Although the Frozen Moon Palace was weak, it wasn’t to the point they would lose to a few rounds of the profound beast horde. There must be something behind it.

“The Peng Clan makes trouble?” Yun Lintian spoke out in doubt. This was the only possibility he could think of at the moment.

Nantian Xuanyu nodded. “Indeed. However, there are the White Feather Sect, Violent Gale Sect, and most importantly, the Wang Clan mixing in. Because of them, Palace Master Han’s hands are tied. She has to fight both outside and inside battles at the same time.”

“The Wang Clan?” A cold glint flashed through Yun Lintian’s eyes when he heard this name.

“I must remind you. The Wang Clan is by no means ordinary. The current patriarch’s younger sister is married to the Supreme Elder Xing Guiren of the Star Gazing Palace. To deal with them, you’re bound to face the Star Gazing Palace.” Nantian Xuanyu said in a deep voice.

Surprisingly, Yun Lintian didn’t seem to care. “It doesn’t matter. The grudge between them and me has already formed. Sooner or later, I will eventually face them.”

Nantian Xuanyu was surprised. She didn’t understand why Yun Lintian and the Star Gazing Palace became an enemy.

Tang Suyin was clear on this matter. She took the initiative to explain. “Palace Master Nantian should be aware of Young Master Yun’s background. In fact, Senior Yun Wushuang was suffering under the calculation of the Star Gazing Palace Founder Xing Tengfei in the past.”

Nantian Xuanyu was shocked and turned to Nantian Xiulan.

“So it’s the case. No wonder…” Nantian Xiulan seemed to understand everything now. “Xing Tengfei was a cunning old man. Our First Ancestor had repeatedly reminded me to stay away from the Star Gazing Palace. I didn’t expect him to plot against Senior Yun.”

“This is troublesome. Everyone knows the relationship between them and the Azure Palace is good.” Nantian Xuanyu frowned deeply.

Yun Lintian spoke. “It doesn’t matter. What we should focus on right now is the Poison Valley.” He looked at Nantian Xuanyu and Nantian Xiulan. “Thank you for helping our Northern Continent. I will remember this kindness.”

“Your words are too heavy,” Nantian Xuanyu responded. “Compared to what you did for us, it is nothing. Besides, we obviously can’t help much.”

On the side, Nantian Xiulan expressed her thoughts. “From the Poison Valley’s posture, they are determined to win the Northern Continent. However, I feel like this is not their true goal.”

Under everyone’s questioning gaze, she explained further. “Think about it. Except for the previous Frozen Moon Palace Master, there’s no other Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm expert on the Northern Continent. If the Poison Valley wanted to end the battle quickly, they could have sent a few of them over.”

Yun Lintian and the others nodded their heads in agreement.

Nantian Xiulan thought for a moment and said. “Unless…They are focusing on other places. For example, the weakened Western Continent.”
