Myth Beyond Heaven



Yun Lintian stretched his body and said. "I'll take a good nap for a while. You should take a rest too."

Ning Yue nodded gently and returned to her room. However, she didn't plan to sleep but chose to practice instead. She didn't want to be Yun Lintian's burden.

Yun Lintian naturally saw this. He smiled and lay on the bed, taking a nap. There were many things for him to do later.

"Come in." A majestic voice resounded from the other side of the door. 

Ximen Wu took a deep breath and pushed the door open before walking into the room.

Sitting behind a long table was a middle-aged man with ninety percent resembled Ximen Wu. He was the current patriarch of the Ximen Clan, Ximen Shun.

Ximen Shun didn't raise his head to look at his son but continued to read a book on the table. "Tell me."

Ximen Wu didn't want to stay here. He put the jade box on the table and opened it, showing the Rising Thunder Pills. "I met a powerful alchemist on the way back and invited him over to try out. The earlier commotion caused by him."

Ximen Shun glanced at the pills, and a trace of surprise emerged in the depths of his calm eyes. "I heard that he's very young."

"Yes." Ximen Wu responded. "Uncle Hei had already checked him up. His bone age is only twenty-two."

Ximen Shun raised his head and leaned back slightly. "What's his background?"

"He said to be a disciple of the Profound Pill Sect and was on the way to the Divine Alchemy Association." Ximen Wu didn't hide anything. "I've already sent people over. There should be a result soon."

Ximen Shun tapped his finger on the table for a while and asked. "What about these pills?"

"This is the gift I prepared for grandpa." Ximen Wu replied as a sarcastic smile appeared. "Of course. What could I do if you wanted to snatch it away?"

Ximen Shun didn't care about his son's sarcasm. He looked at the pills briefly and asked. "Do you know what these pills mean?"

Ximen Wu frowned slightly and offered no answer.

"With these pills, your grandfather can definitely step into the Divine King Realm." Ximen Shun said faintly.

"Isn't that good?" Ximen Wu asked in doubt.

"A birth of the Divine King can be both blessing and disaster." Ximen Shun gave his son a meaningful gaze.

Suddenly, Ximen Wu seemed to think of something, and his face turned serious. "You mean…"

Ximen Shun didn't confirm his son's thoughts directly. "How many people know about him?"

"There are Hao Jixin and Ye Jingran. The latter tried to seduce Brother Lin many times. I'm afraid she will come back for him later." Ximen Wu replied.

Ximen Shun pondered for a moment and said. "You should bring him to the association tomorrow. As for these pills, you can bring them to your grandfather now."

"What about the commotion? Everyone should have noticed by now." Ximen Wu asked worriedly.

"Leave it to me." Ximen Shun said and waved his hand dismissively.

Ximen Wu had no choice but to leave with the pills.

After his son left, Ximen Shun summoned Uncle Hel and said. "You have to protect this Lin Tian at all costs."

Uncle Hei's expression became solemn upon hearing this. "Even if…"

"Yes. Even if they have the surname Zhou." Ximen Shun's eyes turned sharp.

Uncle Hei took a deep breath and said. "Understood."

Ximen Shun laid back slightly and muttered to himself. "This should be within your expectation, right?"

No one knew what he was talking about.

In the Ye Clan manor, Ye Jingran sat opposite a dignified middle-aged man. This person was the current patriarch of the Ye Clan, Ye Jianhao.

"I've already got a report. It seems the outside environment cannot temper you anymore." Ye Jianhao said with a trace of disappointment. He loved his second daughter very much, but she couldn't live up to his expectation no matter how hard he tried to teach her.

Ye Jingran frowned slightly. "He is just a bit talented alchemist. Why do you need to be polite?"

"A bit talented?" Ye Jianhao shook his head in an even more disappointed way. "Do you know what happened earlier?"

Ye Jianhao said further before Ye Jingran said anything. "There was a thunderstorm above the Ximen Clan earlier. It wasn't an ordinary thunderstorm, but a pill tribulation from refining the Rising Thunder Pill."

He took a deep look at his daughter and asked. "Do you know what this means?"

Ye Jingran's face gradually turned solemn. Although she was arrogant, she wasn't a complete fool. Obviously, it must be Yun Lintian who successfully refined the pill.

"A young man in his twenties who can refine a Divine Tribulation rank pill. Looking at the entire Heavenhold Realm, there is no such a person." Ye Jianhao said calmly.

His guess was similar to Ximen Shun's in this regard. Yun Lintian was, without a doubt coming from the upper realm. Otherwise, he wouldn't reach this height at such a young age.

Ye Jingran went silent as she realized what mistake she had just committed. Although she showed sincerity in inviting Yun Lintian over, it was clearly not enough.

Seeing this, Ye Jianhao's expression softened slightly. "Forget it. It's not that we urgently needed him. Once he becomes a member of the association, we can ask him to refine a pill for us."

Ye Jingran lowered her head slightly and said. "I'm sorry, father."

Ye Jianhao was slightly surprised to see his daughter admit her mistake. He waved his hand and said. "It's good that you know your mistake. You can go back and focus on the upcoming banquet."

Ye Jingran nodded and walked out.

Ye Jianhao pondered for a moment and said. "If there's a chance, try to invite him over. Using my name directly."

"Understood." A female voice resounded out of nowhere.

***

In the evening, Yun Lintian woke up from a long nap and saw Ning Yue sitting in the living room. 

"What are you doing?" Yun Lintian asked and sat beside her.

Ning Yue replied. "Young Master Ximen came earlier to invite us to a banquet. He wanted to introduce you to the clan."

Yun Lintian didn't seem to be surprised about it. He asked. "Do you want to go?"

Ning Yue hesitated briefly and said. "I do."

Yun Lintian looked at her deeply. This little girl obviously thought about his previous words about having an ally.

"Alright. Let's go."
