Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 851 Family Drama

"Seriously? Isn't your Shen clan powerful? Why would they force you to get married?" Yun Lintian asked in confusion.

"Why not?" A self-deprecating smile appeared on Shen Liqiu's face. "In that old man's eyes, I am nothing but a mere tool. He doesn't mind throwing me away for a petty benefit."

Yun Lintian nodded slightly. It turned out to be a family drama. "Who's your fiance?"

"He's not my fiance." Shen Liqiu's face darkened. "This person is a young master of the Divine Thunder Palace. His name is Lei Jun. Back then, he had visited my Myriad Island and tried to get me through that disgusting old man several times."

A disdainful smile appeared on her face as she continued. "That bastard is not a good thing. He is labeled as a heavenly chosen one, but his strength can't even be compared to mine. And he still has the audacity to force me to be his concubine. Don't you think it's ridiculous?"

"Lei Jun?" A strange light flashed through Yun Lintian's eyes. He didn't expect this person to be this lustful. After all, he seemed to have only Lin Xinyao in his eyes back then.

"You know him?" Shen Liqiu's brows raised slightly as she saw Yun Lintian's strange expression.

Yun Lintian didn't hide it. He nodded. "Well, I had encountered him once. He tried to kill me back then."

Shen Liqiu's eyes brightened up. She patted Yun Lintian's shoulder and said with a smile. "It's really fate. We actually have a common enemy."

"How did you escape from your father?" Yun Lintian asked curiously. Since Shen Liqiu was set to be married to Lei Jun, it shouldn't be possible for her father to let her slip out easily.

"My mother helped me." As Shen Liqiu spoke, a trace of worry appeared on her face. "I don't know how she is now."

Yun Lintian went silent immediately. Undoubtedly, the consequence of helping Shen Liqiu escape was heavy. Perhaps her mother was currently suffering from punishment.

However, Yun Lintian admired Shen Liqiu's mother in his heart. Normally, a wife would follow her husband's decision, but her action this time proved how much she loved and cared for her daughter. This person was worthy of being a mother.

Back to Earth, Yun Lintian had opened an orphanage, and he had seen countless scenes where mothers abandoned their children mercilessly. Some of them didn't even feel anything, as if they were dumping the garbage.

Of course, it applied to fathers too. There were countless irresponsible parents in the world, especially in this Azure World, where family ties seemed to be a superficial thing. This was why Yun Lintian had a good impression of Shen Liqiu's mother.

Shen Liqiu didn't want to continue to think about it further. She changed the topic. "Are you planning to enter the Skymist Ancient City?"

Yun Lintian admitted honestly. "Yes. That's my plan. But it would take a lot of time to adapt to the environment here."

"I'll go with you." Shen Liqiu said without hesitation.

Yun Lintian frowned and said with a serious expression. "I've to warn you that although your physique is strong…."

Before he could finish his sentence, Shen Liqiu interrupted first. "Don't worry about me. I'm not stupid, okay? I will naturally leave if I can't go further."

Yun Lintian stared straight into her eyes and saw an unwavering determination in them. He knew it was impossible to dissuade her now.

Shen Liqiu said further. "However, if we could enter the city, you must share a portion of treasures with me. I want to become stronger and go back to rescue my mother."

Yun Lintian went silent for a moment and nodded. "Fine."

As his voice fell, the expressions of Yun Lintian and Shen Liqiu changed slightly. The surrounding windstorm had abruptly changed its speed, creating terrifying turbulence at least twice stronger than the one Yun Lintian had previously experienced.

Yun Lintian didn't think about it further and said solemnly. "Come behind me."

For fear that Shen Liqiu couldn't withstand the turbulence, Yun Lintian quickly set up a small protective formation around her body. Afterward, he sat down on the ground, preparing to temper his body further.

Shen Liqiu was touched by his gesture, and she knew it wasn't the time to show off. She obediently stood in the formation and stared at Yun Lintian attentively, wanting to see what he was going to do next.

Boom!

The wind turbulence arrived and instantly created several cracks in the barrier. Shen Liqiu's expression changed drastically. The windstorm was far stronger than she had imagined. She couldn't help looking at Yun Lintian worriedly.

However, the scene before her instantly stunned her. After the initial tremble, Yun Lintian managed to sit still in the place without moving an inch. Several cutting wounds appeared on his body, along with blood trailing off. It might look scary, but Shen Liqiu could see the wounds were recovering at an abnormal rate.

What kind of physique is that?… Shen Liqiu was curious. The Shen clan was proficient in the body profound art, and she had seen a lot of heavenly geniuses before. However, none of them could be compared to Yun Lintian.

Her curiosity toward Yun Lintian grew increasingly. She genuinely wanted to know about his background. This was the first time she had this feeling, especially toward a man.

At this moment, unlike before, Yun Lintian felt like thousands of blades were stabbing all over his body. Coupled with the fact his profound energy was extremely low, the state of the wind turbulence was akin to purgatory for him.

Linlin, who was observing Yun Lintian worriedly, couldn't help releasing her power. However, she suddenly heard Yun Lintian say. "No, Linlin. Let big brother face this alone."

As much as Linlin wanted to help, she could only suppress the urge in her heart and firmly locked on Yun Lintian. She wouldn't hesitate to protect him if something bad happened.

Since he couldn't use profound energy to weaken the turbulence, Yun Lintian ruthlessly gave up the defense and let the windstorm hit him fully.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

Blood spurted out in the air and was blown away by the violent windstorm. The scene kept repeating for a long time, making Shen Liqiu unable to stand still…
