Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 1707 Saintess Orchid

Yun Lintian and the others followed Su Shan's lead and soon arrived at a large wooden house.

Su Shan opened the door and shouted. "Wife, I'm back. We have a few guests today."

Soon, a middle-aged woman walked out of the kitchen and smiled at Yun Lintian. "Welcome, everyone. Please take a seat first."

"This is my wife, Ying Shang." Su Shan said with a smile and invited everyone to take a seat.

"Are there any other villages nearby, Uncle Su?" Yun Lintian asked after sitting down.

"Yes. There are more than twenty villages in this area. If you go further north, you will find a city." Su Shan replied.

He paused momentarily to look at Yun Lintian's group before asking. "I suppose that all of you are here for the Divine Preaching."

"Divine Preaching?" Yun Lintian was confused.

Su Shan was surprised and asked. "You didn't come here for that?"

"To be honest, we have been living deep in the mountains all this time. This is our first time venturing out to explore the world. There are many things we don't know about. I hope Uncle Su enlightens me." Yun Lintian quickly stated.

Su Shan looked at the ordinary bird and feral cat on Yun Lintian and nodded in understanding. "So, that's the case. Firstly, do you know the difference between the West and the East?"

Yun Lintian inferred the implications of Su Shan's previous words and made some guesswork. He replied. "As far as I can see, there isn't a single practitioner here. Is this the difference?"

"Yes," Su Shan replied. "The entire world is divided into the West and East. While the West is full of practitioners, we, people in the East, are unable to practice for the rest of our lives."

"Isn't this dangerous?" Li Gen suddenly said. "Any practitioners can easily come here to cause trouble this way."

Su Shan shook his head and explained. "They don't dare to harm us. Otherwise, they will be killed by Saintess Orchid."

"Saintess Orchid?" Yun Lintian was curious.

"Saintess Orchid is revered as a saint among mortals. Her divine presence brings blessings to all of us mortals." Su Shan said with a reverent expression on his face. "It is because of her that we can live in peace."

Yun Lintian asked further. "Is she the one who delivers the Divine Preaching? And what is the Divine Preaching?"

"Yes." Su Shan answered. "On the seventh month of every year, Saintess Orchid will descend from the Orchid Mountain to give us a preaching. Anyone who attends the event will be blessed with her divine power. In the past, there were many people who could attain divinity by listening to her preaching."

Yun Lintian and the others were stunned. Achieving divinity just by listening to someone's preaching? Such a thing was beyond a miracle. However, they knew Su Shan had no reason to fabricate a story.

"If you want to attend the event, you can wait for two days. Our village will go there." Su Shan said with a smile.

"Then we would like to trouble Uncle Su." Yun Lintian said.

He was curious about the so-called Saintess Orchid's identity. From the looks of it, this person didn't seem bad. Otherwise, she wouldn't waste her time preaching to mortals. And whatever her scheme was, ordinary people like Su Shan and the villagers here at least benefited from it.

"No trouble." Su Shan waved his hand dismissively. "Many people, like you, have come here in the past. It is our duty to help you. I'll take everyone to your residence after the meal. You can live here with ease."

"Thank you, Uncle Su." Yun Lintian said politely.

After enjoying a hearty meal, Su Shan led Yun Lintian's group to a spacious house located at the rear of the village. Judging from its appearance, this place seemed to have been specifically designed for hosting guests.

"There are no other travelers here. You can choose your room by yourself." Su Shan said with a smile as he opened the door for everyone. "You can come to me anytime if you need something."

"Understood." Yun Lintian nodded and escorted Su Shan out.

After checking the surroundings and confirming that no one was around, Yun Lintian set up an isolation barrier and gathered everyone.

"What do you think about this?" Yun Lintian asked.

"This place is full of weirdness." Master Bai spoke first. "First, we cannot detect these people through our spiritual senses, but Li Gen and Chen Lin can."

"Secondly, the aura in this place is clearly conducive to practicing. There are hundreds of people here, and it is impossible to have zero talented individuals."

"Lastly, this Saintess Orchid is very suspicious. I have lived for countless years, and this is the first time I have heard of someone who could elevate people to divinity through their preaching. No matter how powerful she is, I don't think it's possible."

The Beyond Heaven King was held as the most powerful being in the Divine Realm, possessing numerous miraculous powers. However, he was unable to grant divinity through mere conversation. Master Bai refused to believe it.

Yun Lintian nodded in agreement and glanced at Li Gen and Chen Lin. "What about you two?"

The husband and wife glanced at each other briefly before Chen Lin spoke. "We feel like we have come home."

"Oh? Can you explain more?" Yun Lintian asked with great interest.

"It's a feeling coming from the depths of our souls." Li Gen explained with a frown. "At first, we thought it was because we had never been to a place so full of vitality like this, but later, we discovered that this feeling of being at home was extremely strong."

Chen Lin echoed. "It feels as though this place is our true home, while our home above is a foreign place."

Yun Lintian touched his chin and said. "Is it possible that your ancestors actually originated from this place, and for some reason, they were sent to the land above?"

"Very likely." Linlin suddenly spoke. "They have a familiar aura."

Linlin's perception was exceptionally keen, and she could see a similarity between Li Gen and the villagers here. Although it was faint, it was definitely the same.

Chen Lin and Li Gen glanced at each other and fell into deep thoughts… If it were true, what had caused their ancestors to end up in the dead land above?
