Myth Beyond Heaven

After talking with Yun Qianxue for a while, Yun Lintian returned to the outside world and happened to hear a knocking sound on the door.

He went to open and was immediately greeted by Lan Shuiying. "Brother Ye. I've already booked a private room on the fourth floor. Shall we head there now?"

With the private room, the chance of being seen by Qi Yuanfeng would reduce significantly. Yun Lintian didn't think further and accepted Lan Shuiying's arrangement readily. "Let's go there."

Lan Shuiying smiled and led Yun Lintian to the private box on the fourth floor. Along the way, Yun Lintian observed the surroundings and discovered several Ruler Profound practitioners among the crowd.

In small places like Heavenly Fortune Nation, the Ruler Profound practitioner could be regarded as the top existence and could not be seen in public easily. However, Yun Lintian had actually met several of them as though he encountered Essence Profound practitioners here.

A moment later, Yun Lintian and Lan Shuiying arrived at a luxury decorated room with exquisite ice lanterns on the wall. There was an ice table at the center of the room. Yun Lintian saw a middle-aged woman sat behind the table. Seeing her appearance was similar to Lan Shuiying. He guessed this woman should have a blood connection with the latter.

"This is my aunt, Lan Ning." Lan Shuiying introduced. "Aunty, this is Brother Ye Xiu I am talking about."

Yun Lintian greeted politely. "Greetings. Senior Lan."

Lan Ning seized Yun Lintian up and down and nodded with a smile. "Sit."

Yun Lintian went to sit opposite Lan Ning, while Lan Shuiying sat on his right between them.

"Serve the dishes." Lan Ning said softly, and two waitresses immediately entered the room with various dishes.

"I heard you come from the Sky Fall Nation. I wonder if you have something with the Ye clan of the Imperial City?" Lan Ning asked after all the dishes were placed on the table.

Yun Lintian had prepared for this question since he met Lan Ning. He shook his head and said. "I have nothing to do with the Ye clan there."

Lan Ning smiled faintly. "I thought you were one of Ye Wenhai's descendants. He is my junior brother."

Yun Lintian heaved a sigh of relief inwardly. Thankfully, he didn't lie to her. "I come from a small town not worth mentioning."

Lan Ning observed Yun Lintian's expression for all this time and believed he didn't lie to her. She asked further. "I'm curious how did you manage to get past the Spring Wind Nation. After all, there is a profound beast tide there."

Yun Lintian's expression suddenly turned sad and said. "It was my master who protected me."

Hearing this, Lan Ning and Lan Shuiying glanced at each other and said nothing. Since Yun Lintian's master was nowhere to be seen, it meant he didn't make it.

Lan Ning's heart was softened slightly as she comforted. "You have a good master."

Yun Lintian took a deep breath, and a trace of hatred appeared on his face. "My master is a Ruler Profound practitioner. Those profound beasts can't do anything to him. However, who would have thought there is a despicable bastard to take advantage of my master when he fought with the Twin Horns Heaven Profound Beast. In the end, my master sent me away while he fought with the enemy to death."

Before Lan Ning could say anything, Lan Shuiying immediately said with anger. "Who is that person, Brother Ye?"

Lan Ning was silent while staring at Yun Lintian's face. She felt this matter was not simple as it appeared to be. Who knows whether what Yun Lintian said was true? But she believed the hatred on Yun Lintian's face was genuine.

Yun Lintian closed his eyes, trying to 'calm' himself down before saying. "I don't know who he is, but I saw him here earlier today. He dressed in a golden robe with a dragon pattern. I guess his status is now low." He paused for a moment, frowning as if he thought of something, and hurriedly said. "Right, I heard his subordinate called him Your Highness Crown Prince."

"Crown Prince?" Lan Ning frowned slightly and pondering if there was a crown prince of some nations coming here today.

"Aunty Lan. Could this person be Crown Prince Qi?" Lan Shuiying said. She remembered the Crown Prince of the Heavenly Fortune Nation had arrived here yesterday.

"Crown Prince Qi?" Yun Lintian furrowed his brows. "Can you tell me more about him?"

This time, it was Lan Ning who answered. "His name is Qi Yuanfeng, the Crown Prince of the Heavenly Fortune Nation's Qi royal clan… Come to think of it, he is indeed wearing the golden robe with a dragon pattern."

Yun Lintian breathed heavily and said in a deep voice. "Do you know where he lives now?"

"This…" Lan Shuiying did not know whether she should tell Yun Lintian.

"Your master has exchanged his life in order to keep you alive, yet you want to throw your life away like that?" Lan Ning said.

Yun Lintian gritted his teeth and said. "You don't have to worry about me. Just tell me where he lives." If anyone from Earth saw his current acting, they believed he could easily win the Oscar award.

Lan Ning fell into silence while Lan Shuiying kept glancing between Yun Lintian and her aunt.

"Unfortunately, even I tell you, you won't be able to reach him." Lan Ning said softly. "He is the esteemed guest of the Ming clan."

"Ming clan?… One of the four powerful clans here?" Yun Lintian asked in a deep voice.

Lan Ning nodded her head. "If I remembered correctly, Qi royal clan have a good relationship with the Ming clan for several years. The rumors say Qi Yuanfeng was sent to practice under the guidance of the Ming clan's previous patriarch, Ming Chenwu." She stared into Yun Lintian's eyes and said. "I believe you are not stupid. I think you should understand what this means."
