Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 990 Morning Rain

The middle-aged man, Jiang Yuanjun, felt uncomfortable hearing this.

He let out a sigh and said. "You know that I don't want to do this, but in order to let our clan survive, sacrificing you is the only choice I have. I don't want to be a sinner who destroys our Jiang Clan's thousands of years legacy… As a member of the Jiang Clan, I believe you will understand my decision one day."

A self-deprecating smile appeared on Jiang Yingyue's beautiful face as she said. "I am always aware that you have never loved me, just like you did to my mother. The family is nothing but a tool for you."

She turned to look at the man who was her father and said with a calm expression. "There are many ways to let this clan continue. You should know that I have a good relationship with the heir of the Long Clan. It's not impossible to ally with them."

Jiang Yuanjun shook his head. "Since you have a good relationship with Long Feiyan, you should know her clan's situation. Once her grandfather falls, they will be surrounded in all directions. At that time, we would be dragged down with them."

"On the contrary, the Wang Clan might be a bit worse in terms of strength, but their foundation is more stable. They are the best choice available."

Jiang Yingyue suddenly laughed. "Hehe. It's not like you don't know their true intention. When the River Transformation Physique appears, this clan will be a breeding farm for them. Is that what you wanted?"

Jiang Yuanjun went silent immediately. Of course, he was well aware of the Wang Clan's ambition, but he truly had no other way. If he didn't join them, they would undoubtedly attack his clan.

Instead of waiting until that day, why didn't he take the initiative to join them? At least, he could call for benefits with this.

Seeing her father remaining silent, Jiang Yingyue was even more disappointed in him. She turned to look at the moon and said. "Leave. I don't want to see you again."

Jiang Yuanjun looked at his daughter for a long time and said softly. "Thank you."

He turned around and left.

Silence returned to the courtyard. Jiang Yingyue kept looking at the moon for a long while and said to herself. "Master, junior brother, please don't come. I don't want anything to happen to both of you."

Unfortunately, her prayer couldn't reach Lin Zixuan and Yun Lintian, and even if it did, they would never give up on her…

After leaving his daughter's courtyard, Jiang Yuanjun's expression returned to its original dignified.

He glanced at an old man who stood on the side and said. "Find out who sent a letter to her. Also, increase your vigilance. Do not let anyone approach her again."

"Yes, patriarch." The old man said and disappeared from the place.

Jiang Yuanjun took one last glance in the courtyard's direction and muttered. "I'm sorry."

With that, he turned around and walked away. Each step he took was heavy, seemingly reflecting the heaviness in his heart.

The following day, Yun Lintian opened his eyes after meditating for the night. He glanced outside through the window and saw it was raining.

At this moment, Yun Qianxue walked into the room with a warm water basin. She put it on the table and asked. "What's your plan today?"

Yun Lintian got up and washed his face before replying. "I plan to walk around the city to observe the layout first."

"I won't go with you. I feel like I am about to break through." Yun Qianxue said softly.

Yun Lintian looked at her with a smile. "Congratulations."

Yun Qianxue smiled and asked. "Breakfast?"

Yun Lintian shook his head slightly. "I will find something on the road."

"Alright. Be careful." Yun Qianxue said and took the basin away.

A while later, Yun Lintian walked out of the restaurant with a paper umbrella. He didn't notify Shen Liqiu and Mu Qiuxue as he wanted to enjoy a rare moment alone.

Although it was raining, the streets were still full of people, and many stalls could be seen on both sides.

The Azure Ancient City was worthy of being the number one city in the world. The city layout was meticulously designed, and Yun Lintian couldn't find any loophole.

Every place and street would fill with a protective and a killing formation. Once a battle broke out, the citizens could go to the nearby formation to avoid a disaster.

At the same time, this layout could prevent people with ulterior motives from committing unscrupulous crimes.

"Hmm?" After walking for an hour, Yun Lintian arrived at a long alley in the city's outer ring. When he looked into the alley, he suddenly saw a small figure leaning against a dirty wall. Judging from her appearance, she was a six or seven-year-old little girl.

Her clothes couldn't be called clothes, as they were tattered beyond words. Her complexion was pale, and her eyes were dull. It was unknown how long she had been staying here.

Through the Eyes of Heaven, Yun Lintian saw an extraordinary talent in her. Her profound was twice larger than her peers, and more than half of her profound entrances had been opened.

Without a doubt, she could be considered a heavenly genius. How could such a good seedling become like this?

Yun Lintian's heart suddenly gave birth to a familiar feeling. It was like someone had arranged for him to meet her today.

Without thinking further, he walked toward her and covered her with his umbrella.

The little girl didn't seem to notice someone standing before her. She continued to stare at the ground dully.

"Do you desire to live on? I can give you a chance." Yun Lintian said calmly.

The girl's dull eyes changed slightly, and her consciousness gradually returned. She raised her head and said in difficulty. "I… want… to live."

"Very good. I don't care about your past. You will be my first disciple from now on." Yun Lintian smiled faintly.

The little girl suddenly regained her strength out of nowhere. She quickly kowtowed and said in a hoarse voice. "Disciple greets her Master."

She had exhausted all of her strength and lay on the ground powerlessly.

Yun Lintian slowly picked her up and said softly while injecting a portion of wood energy into her body. "Since I met you in the morning rain, you shall be called Yun Chenyu[1] from now on."
