Myth Beyond Heaven



Seeing Hao Lie remain silent, Yun Lintian didn't bother to ask further. He turned to Ning Yue and asked. "Are you tired?"

Ning Yue wiped the sweat from her forehead and shook her head slightly, indicating she was fine.

Yun Lintian looked at the small creek in the distance and said. "Let's take a rest over there."

Ning Yue wanted to refuse, but Yun Lintian had already walked toward the creek. She had no choice but to follow him.

Hao Lie didn't say anything. He silently followed them while his mind was seemingly occupied with something.

Yun Lintian took out a table, chairs, and stove, preparing to make a meal. Soon, the table was filled with delicacies, and Yun Lintian beckoned everyone to eat.

After eating for a while, Hao Lie suddenly stopped his movement and said. "I came from the Hao Clan of the capital city."

Yun Lintian put a piece of grilled meat in Ning Yue's bowl and looked at Hao Lie without saying anything.

A self-deprecating smile appeared on Hao Lie's face as he continued. "It may sound good, but I am just an illegitimate son of the current patriarch. My mother is an ordinary servant."

Hao Lie looked at Yun Lintian and asked. "Do you have a strong wine?"

Yun Lintian waved his hand, and a bottle of white wine appeared on the table. 

Hao Lie took the bottle and drank from it directly. The burning sensation spread from his throat into his belly, making him feel refreshed.

"Hah! Good wine!" Hao Lie put the bottle down and wiped the stain out of the corner of his mouth. 

Perhaps because of Ning Yue's presence, Hao Lie's vigilance toward Yun Lintian decreased by several degrees. Coupled with the white wine, he didn't hold anything back anymore.

"As an illegitimate son, I would get bullied every then and there by those people. Although I was angry, I didn't think of taking revenge in the slightest. Anyway, we were in the same clan."

"I endured everything and practiced hard in order to let my mother live more comfortably. My talent might be mediocre, but I could cope by working hard."

"It was until one day. That day was the clan's yearly assessment. My opponent was my half-brother, who was a year older than me. Our talents were not different much, but because he was born to the first wife, he was treated several times better than me."

"With so many resources he was pampered with over the years, his strength was naturally higher than me. However, he had underestimated me greatly as he tried to humiliate me in front of everyone. I seized a chance when he was careless and sent him out of the arena."

"Because of this incident, this half-brother of mine always harbored a malicious intent toward me. In the end, he chose to vent it on my mother instead."

Speaking to this point, Hao Lie's eyes reddened as he tried to hold back tears. "My mother was an ordinary person without profound strength. How could she withstand an attack from a practitioner?"

Ning Yue stopped eating completely and looked at Hao Lie sadly. She could perfectly understand the feeling of losing someone. 

Hao Lie said further with deep hatred. "I wanted to seek justice, but that man didn't even care about my mother. He tossed her body away as if she was a worthless pebble."

"At that moment, I knew it was time for me to leave. As long as I continued to stay there, I would never have peace of mind. I successfully sneaked out but was found out by my half-brother. He sent people to kill me, but I managed to escape with a piece of life."

"So, you ended up here in the end?" Yun Lintian said calmly.

Hao Lie took a few deep breaths and said. "Yes. I was suffering a serious injury at that time, and my strength regressed because of it. I could only enter the sect as a servant."

"The Hao Clan of the capital city. It should be powerful, right?" Yun Lintian asked.

Hao Lie explained with a solemn expression. "The Ancestor of the Hao Clan is an expert at the Divine Transformation Realm. Before I left, I often heard a rumor that he was likely going to break through to the Divine King soon."

"As for that man, he's already at the peak of the Divine Tribulation Realm. And there are other nine elders in the same realm as his."

Yun Lintian's eyebrows raised slightly in surprise. It seemed the capital city was more dangerous than he thought. The strength of the Hao Clan alone was enough to raze this Chu Country into nothingness.

"How many clans are there?" Yun Lintian asked curiously.

"Including the Zhou Royal Clan, there are a total of seven major clans inside the capital city—Hao, Ye, Lou, Ximen, Wu, and Shi." Hao Lie answered. "The Hao Clan ranked fourth among them, and the Ximen Clan is second to the Zhou Royal Clan."

"Between them, the Hao and the Lou Clans are very close to each other as the first wife of that man comes from the Lou Clan."

ƥαṇdα- ηθνε|·ƈθm "I see," Yun Lintian noted in his heart.

Hao Lie looked at Yun Lintian and said. "Although you are strong, you better stay away from them. The water in the capital city runs deep than you thought."

After staying with Yun Lintian for a while, Hao Lie was certain that Yun Lintian should be in the Divine Spirit Realm. Reaching the Divine Spirit Realm at such a young age, Yun Lintian's background should be extremely extraordinary.

Ning Yue also looked at Yun Lintian worriedly. She thought Yun Lintian must have something to do with those people by asking this.

Yun Lintian smiled and said. "Thank you for telling me this, but you don't have to worry. I merely ask for information. I have nothing to do with them."

"That's good." Hao Lie said.

Ning Yue heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

Hao Lie looked at Yun Lintian and asked. "Can you tell me what is hiding here?"

Yun Lintian replied. "I'm not sure myself. There is a powerful isolating and protecting formations over there. It is clearly made to protect something inside. My guess is that it should be a top treasure."

He smiled meaningfully at Hao Lie and said further. "That's why I said this could be your best decision to come here with me."
