Myth Beyond Heaven

​ Huoyun Lingling shook her head. "It's different, Uncle Jie. It wasn't that human's fault back then. His Highness was willing to leave with him on his own."

Huoyun Jie continued to oppose. "You are still young, Little Miss. Humans are known for their deceitful hearts. You cannot trust them no matter what. High Highness had obviously been bewitched by that person. Otherwise, how could he leave us behind?"

Listening to their conversation, Yun Lintian seemed to understand something. Were they talking about Little Flame and Yan Qi?

Yun Lintian remembered that Yan Qi told him Little Flame chose to follow him by his own will. Although he didn't know whether it was true, Yun Lintian believed Yan Qi had no reason to lie. This Huoyun Jie must have misunderstood it and thought it was Yan Qi who deceived Little Flame.

Just as Yun Lintian was about to say something, two fire pillars suddenly appeared beneath his feet. Yun Lintian didn't hesitate to activate the Shadow Step to avoid them. At the same time, he moved his hand gently and sent a ray of deep blue light toward Huoyun Jie.

"Hmph!" Huoyun Jie snorted coldly and stuck his palm shrouded with a burning flame at the incoming deep blue light.

However, his expression changed drastically in the next moment as he realized the deep blue light was far stronger than he had expected. Unfortunately, it was too late for him to retract his palm.

Crackle!

Huoyun Jie's palm collided fiercely with the deep blue light, and his entire arm was instantly covered with extremely chilling frost. No matter how hard he tried to get rid of it, he could not do it in the end.

"Please raise your hand, Senior. This is a misunderstanding." Huoyun Lingling hurriedly turned to Yun Lintian and pleaded.

Yun Lintian glanced at a trace of burning on the hem of his robe and turned to look at Huoyun Lingling. "Don't you think this misunderstanding is a little too far?"

"Move to the side, Little Miss." Huoyun Jie's complexion was unsightly. Yun Lintian's strength was entirely out of his expectation. Before coming here, he heard about Yun Lintian's deeds, but he had never thought it would be this exaggerated.

A Heaven Profound Realm's youth could easily harm a dignified Monarch like him? This was the first time he had seen something like this throughout his thousands of years of experience.

"Old man, I understand why you are so against humans, but you should know that not every human is the same… Let me clarify it. Humans indeed have deceptive hearts. I admitted that I also have it. However, there are many levels of deception. For example, they have to lie in order to protect themselves or lie out of caution. Not every deception aims for a benefit." Yun Lintian said with a serious expression.

"I don't know what kind of humans you have encountered before, but I want to ask you. Are you sure you never lied or deceived anyone throughout your life?… I don't believe it."

"Nonsense! I had never done such a thing." Huoyun Jie retorted.

"It's not true, Uncle Jie. You lied to me several times in the past. Do you want me to say it aloud?" Huoyun Yanyan suddenly interjected.

Huoyun Jie was taken aback and opened his mouth, but no word came out in the end. In order to protect the Huoyun sisters, he had indeed made up many stories to prevent them from going out. To say that he had never done such a thing seemed ridiculous now.

Yun Lintian shrugged his shoulders. "See? That's called a white lie."

Huoyun Jie glared at Yun Lintian fiercely. He wanted to retort, but he felt Yun Lintian would eventually come up with another argument. Hence, he changed the topic. "Then you tell me honestly. Why did you approach Little Miss? What's your purpose?"

Huoyun Lingling and Huoyun Yanyan didn't say anything and looked at Yun Lintian silently, waiting for his explanation.

Yun Lintian smiled faintly as he replied. "I can tell you one or two things… I have indeed just arrived on this continent not long ago. Visiting your clan is one of my many purposes of coming here. Honestly, if it wasn't because of that person, I would never bother with all of you. As for other things, take me to see your clan first, and I will eventually tell you everything later."

He spread his arms carelessly. "Of course, you don't have to take me there. I respect your decision. Otherwise, I would have forced your Little Miss to take me there long ago. Do you think I have so much free time to waste here?"

Hearing this, Huoyun Jie simply couldn't refute it. He had experienced Yun Lintian's horror earlier. With his strength, taking care of the Huoyun sisters was as easy as flipping a hand. There was no need for him to go through all of this if he truly wanted to harm the Fire Cloud Rat Clan.

However, Huoyun Jie couldn't let his guard down because of this. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice. "I will put an ugly word here first. If I find out you have an ulterior motive, I will do everything to kill you."

"You should." Yun Lintian had no problem with it.

"Let's move. I'm afraid those people will come here soon." Huoyun Jie said and waved his hand, bringing the Huoyun sisters away.

Yun Lintian rolled his eyes as he wanted to retort, "Wasn't it because of you delaying us here?". Without thinking further, he quickly flew into the air and followed Huoyun Jie.

Under Huoyun Jie's guidance, they flew for ten hours and arrived at a place where a white mist was everywhere to be seen.

Huoyun Jie halted his movement in the air above the white mist and turned to Yun Lintian. "Make sure to follow me closely. Don't blame me if you lose your life here."

Yun Lintian frowned slightly. He spread his Spiritual Sense out and discovered he could not penetrate the white mist… What the heck was this place?
