Myth Beyond Heaven

"You...!?" Crimson Sword Saint looked at Mystic Saintess in disbelief. If there was anyone among them who was unwilling the most, it must be her. Yet she accepted it readily?

Mystic Saintess turned to look at the two and said. "You two are not unwilling?… Heh. Weilan Jian and Xing Tengfei treated us like dogs, and you are still thinking of returning to them?"

She sneered. "I'd rather stand on Senior Long's side instead of listening to someone that regards my life like a vegetable. Moreover, with Senior Long's reputation, do you really think he would force you to die?"

Crimson Sword Saint and Sunmoon Saint Lord went silent immediately. What Mystic Saintess said was without reason. If it wasn't for Weilan Jian and Xing Tengfei, how could they fall into such a situation?

"Relax your mind." Long Shen looked at Mystic Saintess and said calmly.

"Yes." Mystic Saintess took a deep breath and let down her guard.

A golden light flashed as Long Shen pointed his finger at her. Instantly, Mystic Saintess could see a golden dragon penetrate her mind and go straight to her soul before wrapping around it. A moment later, a golden dragon symbol was branded on her soul, and a sense of intimacy toward Long Shen emerged within her heart.

"Little Girl Hua Xiaohui greets Master Long." Mystic Saintess, whose real name Hua Xiaohui bowed her head toward Long Shen and said respectfully.

Long Shen nodded slightly and shifted his gaze onto the other two.

Crimson Sword Saint and Sunmoon Saint Lord glanced at each other and let out a sigh at the same time. What choice did they have?

"We are willing to accept your Dragon Curse, Senior." Sunmoon Saint Lord said after taking a deep breath.

Long Shen didn't say anything and pointed his finger toward them. Soon, similar golden dragon symbols appeared in their souls.

"We greet Master Long." The two of them bowed their heads toward Long Shen. Their respect for him was coming from the bottom of their hearts.

Long Shen said calmly. "From today onward, I want you to stay here in the Northern Continent and protect this place. However, you don't have to risk your life if you cannot handle the enemy."

The three of them were relieved inwardly and quickly said in unison. "We understand."

Long Shen nodded slightly and took a step forward, disappearing from the place.

Sunmoon Saint Lord stuffed a handful of the healing pills into his mouth and glanced at Hua Xiaohui. "Tell me, are you hiding a trick in your sleeve?"

Since Mystic Saintess was proficient in a soul technique. Perhaps she had a way to get rid of the Dragon Curse.

Hua Xiaohui shook her head and said. "Even if I have one, removing the Dragon Curse is impossible. As you know, a dragon is one of the most powerful creatures among the divine beasts, and its soul can be ranked in the top three. Do you think a mortal like us can do anything to it?"

"So, you are genuinely surrendering to him?" Crimson Sword Saint asked in confusion.

"What else?" Hua Xiaohui rolled her eyes. "Think about it. That Yun Lintian is someone Weilan Jian and Xing Tengfei have to deal with caution. And behind him is Master Long… Perhaps this is the best decision I have ever made in my life."

Sunmoon Saint Lord's eyes narrowed slightly. Before coming here, he had investigated Yun Lintian a bit and roughly understood his situation. He had to admit that Yun Lintian was definitely the most dazzling genius he had ever seen. Such a person would undoubtedly surpass Longevity Monarch in the past.

Therefore, when Hua Xiaohui said this, he was convinced deep down. It was as she spoke. This could be the best decision they had made in their life.

"We should find a place to stay first." Hua Xiaohui looked at the Profound Sky Divine City in the distance and said. "There seems to be a newly built city over there. I haven't been out for a long time. Let's see if the world has changed."

Without waiting for the other two to reply, her figure flashed and disappeared from the place.

Crimson Sword Saint turned to Sunmoon Saint Lord and asked. "Are you really going to stay like this?"

"You can decide by yourself," Sunmoon Saint Lord replied while channeling his profound energy to connect his broken bones. "All I know is that I must stay away from Weilan Jian and Xing Tengfei from now on."

As he finished his sentence, his figure vanished from the place, leaving Crimson Sword Saint standing in the place alone.

A trace of hesitation appeared in Crimson Sword Saint's eyes. He didn't know what he should choose at the moment. In the end, he let out a sigh and followed the two to the city.

***

On the Moon Garden, Long Shen stood outside the pavilion, looking at Qingxuan with respect.

Standing behind were Lu Bo, Tang Suyin, and Yun Ruanyu. They were looking at Long Chen curiously.

A while later, Qingxuan put down the book and raised her head to look at Long Chen. Her lips parted gently. "Five Claws Golden Dragon?… Although it is diluted, its power is more than enough to let you step into the Divine Profound Realm."

She paused for a moment and asked. "How did you get it?"

"Reporting to senior. My older brother found remains of a golden python almost transformed into a golden dragon completely in the ruin called the Golden Mountain." Long Shen didn't dare to hide anything. Although he didn't know the true identity of this woman, he was certain she was the same kind as him—a dragon!

Qingxuan frowned slightly as if she was trying to recall something, but she couldn't come up with one in the end.

"I must say, your older brother was extremely fortunate," Qingxuan said. "Normally, it is impossible for a mortal to refine a dragon's blood, even if it is a diluted one."

"Actually, he had almost lost his life in the process, but for some reason, the violent power of the blood suddenly calmed down. It was as if someone had secretly helped him." Long Shen explained.

"Oh? What could it be?" Qingxuan's interest was piqued.
