Myth Beyond Heaven

"Cough! Cough!" Nantian Lingyan coughed up several mouthfuls of blood, and her body swayed backward.

"Sister Lingyan!" Xue Qianqian and Tong Mi'er hurriedly stepped forward and supported Nantian Lingyan, preventing her from falling to the ground.

Nantian Lingyan opened her mouth and said with difficulty. "Hurry up. Contact Senior Brother Yun."

"Let me." Tong Mi'er said and quickly picked up the transmission jade on Nantian Lingyan's waist.

"Senior Brother Yun, we have a situation here." Tong Mi'er said.

"I'm almost there. All of you quickly set up a formation." A moment later, Yun Lintian's voice resounded from the other side.

"Yes." Tong Mi'er put the transmission jade away and instructed her fellow sisters to set up a protective formation.

Meanwhile, Nantian Lingyan sat on the ground and stuffed a healing pill into her mouth. Because she forcefully opened the Phoenix Domain, her foundation was risky getting damaged. She had to refrain from using any profound energy in the coming days.

While everyone was retaining their vigilance, a spatial rift appeared somewhere above the sea outside of the island, and Yin Xichen's figure shot out of it before the rift closed itself.

The current Yin Xichen was soaked in blood. Several cut wounds could be seen all over his body underneath the torn black robe. The veil on his face fell out, revealing his face that was covered with hideous scars. His eyes were bloody red as he stared in Nantian Lingyan's direction.

"I'll return this pain to you soon…." Yin Xichen said coldly. His voice was hoarse from tiredness after spending everything to survive the tunnel's spatial distortion.

He took a few deep breaths to suppress the anger in his heart and contacted someone through a communication technique.

"Master, I've failed to capture the Divine Phoenix Palace disciples. I am willing to accept the punishment." Yin Xichen said respectfully.

A moment later, an aged voice resounded in his mind. "You are injured?"

"Yes, Master. This lowly slave is ashamed. I was forced to escape by the Phoenix Domain." Yin Xichen replied truthfully.

"Phoenix Domain?… Interesting. You don't have to feel ashamed about it. The Phoenix Domain is not something the current you can handle." The aged voice resounded. "What about the others?"

"I managed to kill the Great Earth Sect's younger generation leader. Unfortunately, he had decisively burnt all of his lifeforces before I could turn him into a sacrifice." Yin Xichen lowered his head further in guilt.

The opposite party went silent for a moment and said. "You've done a good job. Since you're injured, I will send someone to assist you… How about Yin Su?"

A trace of shock appeared in the depth of Yin Xichen's eyes upon hearing this name. He hurriedly said. "Master…"

"I know what you want to say. Although Yin Su is not easy to get along with, his strength is recognizable, and he is the only one available now. You can just give him targets and let him do the job." The aged voice resounded.

Yin Xichen knew that he couldn't say anything now. He responded. "Understood, Master."

After a while, Yin Xichen glanced at the island in the distance and muttered. "I'm afraid we cannot get any sacrifice with that perverted guy."

Swoosh!

All of a sudden, Yun Lintian appeared outside of the newly erected protective formation and glanced at Nantian Lingyan with a frown between his brows.

"Senior Brother Yun!" Xue Qianqian and Tong Mi'er hurriedly greeted him and opened the formation to let him come in.

Yun Lintian walked into the formation and asked. "What happened?"

Xue Qianqian quickly explained. "We've encountered a man in black. He's likely to be the one we are looking for. He possesses a terrifying spatial technique. If it wasn't because of Sister Lingyan using the Phoenix Domain, I'm afraid we would have been long gone by now."

"So it's him…." Yun Lintian frowned deeply. He was wondering how this person knew his movement. As soon as he left, he chose to come here directly, as if he knew him well.

Thinking of this, Yun Lintian couldn't help sweeping his gaze over everyone presented. Although he didn't know there was a traitor in this group, he didn't completely deny the possibility.

"Did Senior Brother Yun meet him before?" Tong Mi'er asked after hearing Yun Lintian's words.

Yun Lintian shook his head. "Situ Chaofeng was killed by a man with a spatial technique. It should be the same person."

"What? Situ Chaofeng got killed?" Xue Qianqian exclaimed in surprise.

In her opinion, aside from Yun Lintian and Nantian Lingyan, Situ Chaofeng was the strongest person among them. Even Wen Yunshan had to be cautious when facing him. Even though Yin Xichen was strong, Situ Chaofeng should have had a high chance of surviving if he wanted to run.

Yun Lintian sighed softly. "He sacrificed himself to let his junior brothers escape. Although I don't like Situ Yuanzhi and Situ Wuyou, Situ Chaofeng's action is admirable. It is my mistake for letting them travel separately."

Xue Qianqian and Tong Mi'er glanced at each other in shock and went silent afterward. They indeed didn't have a good impression of the Great Earth Sect disciples, but Situ Chaofeng's heroic deeds completely changed their previous view of him. Such a person was genuinely worthy of being the leader of the younger generation.

Swoosh!

At this moment, Ding Hui and the other eight Great Earth Sect disciples arrived at the scene with Situ Chaofeng's body in their arms.

Everyone glanced over, looking at Situ Chaofeng's lifeless body in sorrow.

"Come in." Yun Lintian said calmly.

Ding Hui and the others slowly walked into the formation and found a clean place to put Situ Chaofeng's body down.

"You can take care of them." Yun Lintian said to Xue Qianqian and Tong Mi'er before walking toward Nantian Lingyan.

"How is your injury?" Yun Lintian asked.

Nantian Lingyan opened her eyes. Her pale face didn't recover in the slightest, as she said. "I'm better now."

"Let me." Yun Lintian rolled his sleeve up and grabbed Nantian Lingyan's wrist. A moment later, his brows creased together as he said. "Your foundation is unstable. If you leave it like this further, your future would be limited."

Nantian Lingyan was obviously aware of this point, but what could she do? However, she didn't regret it. At least everyone here was safe and sound. It could be said her only regret was that she couldn't take Yin Xichen down.
