Myth Beyond Heaven

A while later, Lin Xinyao opened her magnificent eyes. A flash of purple light overflowed out of them, making her look more aloof and filled with mystery. Her temperament seemed to go under earth-shattering transformation. If the previous her was a little girl in her youth, the current her was no different from a mature woman that went through thick and thin for years.

Hongyue looked at her and nodded her head with a satisfied smile. "First-level Heaven Profound Realm. Not bad. If it wasn't because the Divine Moon Mystical Scripture you were practicing is incomplete, you would have entered the Ruler or even the Saint Profound Realm by now."

Lin Xinyao suddenly knelt on one knee and said solemnly. "Junior Lin Xinyao greets the First Princess."

Hongyue waved her hand, gently helping Lin Xinyao up with her power, and said. "You don't have to follow the old regulation. After all, you are not my descendant technically. Besides, I'm no longer the first princess anymore. I am just a mere residual soul."

A sad expression appeared on Lin Xinyao's face. She hesitated briefly and asked. "Is there any way?" 

Hongyue smiled gently. "Thank you for your concern. Although there's a way to preserve my soul and even reconstruct my body, it depends on fate." As she finished her sentence, her gaze inadvertently shifted to Yun Lintian.

Lin Xinyao seemed to understand something and went silent. She slowly turned to look at the unconscious Yun Lintian and stared at him deeply for a long time.

"You don't have to worry about him. He will wake up soon… I think it's time for you to go out now." Hongyue said softly. Seeing Lin Xinyao turn to look at her questioningly, Hongyue added. "He has his own plan. He will leave the Northern Continent after this. You have to help him conceal this from others, including your Master and Lin Zixuan."

Lin Xinyao took a deep breath and nodded her head gently. "I understood." A trace of loss could be seen in her eyes but soon replaced with an unwavering determination.

Hongyue waved her hand, and a white portal immediately appeared before Lin Xinyao. "Go. I wish you good luck."

Lin Xinyao took another deep look at Yun Lintian and turned around, vanishing into the portal.

As soon as Lin Xinyao left, Yun Lintian suddenly opened his eyes and looked confusedly at the familiar yet unfamiliar ceiling. 

"Congratulations. You've passed the test." Hongyue's voice drifted into Yun Lintian's ears, causing him to regain composure.

Yun Lintian slowly pulled himself up into a sitting posture and fell into contemplation. The previous scene kept replaying in his mind. He wasn't sure whether everything he went through earlier was true or false.

He raised his head to look at Hongyue and asked. "Is it true?"

Hongyue curled her lips and returned with a question. "Ask yourself about it. If you think it's true, then it is."

Yun Lintian's brows creased together, thinking over and over again.

Hongyue smiled meaningfully as she said. "You have died once. I hope you will cherish everything you have in this life."

Yun Lintian's pupils shrank slightly. He stared at Hongyue's face and asked uncertainly. "You… Do you know where did Yaoyao go to? Is she still alive somewhere?"

Hongyue pursed her lips and said. "That's the secret of heaven. I cannot tell you about it." She paused for a moment and added. "You have to find the answer yourself."

Yun Lintian opened his mouth and closed it a few times before giving up on asking further. He gathered all the doubts and buried them in his heart.

It was at this moment did Yun Lintian noticed Lin Xinyao was not here. He looked around briefly and asked. "Where did she go?"

"Already left. Aren't you planning to leave the Northern Continent in secret? That's why I sent her away for you. No need to thank me later." Hongyue changed her sitting posture and raised her chin in her hand. 

Yun Lintian nodded and looked at the people from Emperor Hall. "What about these guys?"

"Them?" Hongyue glanced at the unconscious people. "They will die soon."

"Oh." Yun Lintian felt nothing about this. He turned to look at Hongyue and asked. "I should qualify to get The Moon now, right?"

Hongyue laughed slightly and said. "It always belongs to you. All the tests I created are just for my entertainment."

Yun Lintian's mouth twitched slightly. He put this matter aside and asked. "By the way, you haven't told me about your background yet."

"I think you want to know who is behind everything. Am I right?" Hongyue leaned against the throne and said. "I can't answer this question. However, I can only say that the current you are nothing but a pawn of fate. All you need to do right now is increase your strength as fast as you can. When your strength reaches a certain point, everything will be revealed to you bit by bit without seeking for it."

"Also." Hongyue paused for a moment and said. "There's nothing wrong with your current approach. Building a group of people to help you is good. However, I have to remind you of one thing… You have to be ready to lose them at any time. The dangers you are about to face in the future are not something you can handle alone. Some are bound to sacrifice themselves for you."

Yun Lintian's complexion abruptly changed. "What the hell are you talking about? What are the dangers? Can't you just tell me?"

Seeing his anxious appearance, Hongyue laughed and said. "Oh boy. How did you become stupid all of a sudden? Don't you always know that someone is trying to pave the way for you? Of course, the dangers I am talking about are naturally waiting for you on the way."

Yun Lintian forced himself to calm down. He was still affected by the memories earlier, and his brain didn't work properly at the moment.

After taking a few breaths, Yun Lintian raised his head and said.. "I'm ready to take The Moon now."
