Myth Beyond Heaven

Lynn continued to cry for a while and suddenly raised her head to take a good look at Yun Lintian. A long-lost smile appeared on her face as she touched Yun Lintian's face. "My dear Lintian is still as handsome as ever. Tell me, is this a dream?"

A trace of hesitation appeared on Yun Lintian's face. He held her hand tightly and said. "Yes, you are dreaming."

Yun Lintian felt that he shouldn't give her hope further by saying it was true. He himself also didn't understand the current situation. Was he dreaming? Was this the afterlife?

The smile on Lynn's face grew wider as she spoke. "Then, this must be the best dream I have so far... Can I dream like this forever?"

Yun Lintian had a heartache hearing this. He took a deep breath and shook his head. "No. I'm already gone. You have to let go of your obsession and live a good life. I don't want to see you become like this."

"Let go? Live a good life?" Lynn's smile suddenly receded. Two streaks of tears gradually flowed out once again. She stared straight into Yun Lintian's eyes and said firmly. "I would never let go of this, even in my next life. You will be the only man that I, Lynn Wintercrest, love. You can't tell me to do that."

Lynn suddenly hooked Yun Lintian's neck and imprinted her lips on his. Her action made Yun Lintian stun for a moment. When he came back to his sense, Lynn had already let go of him and take a few steps back.

She smiled at Yun Lintian and picked a piece of broken glass up, pointing the sharp tip at her heart position before saying. "If there's next life, please let me meet you again. I can be anything, whether a flower, bird, or useless grass. As long as I can see you again, I'm already content."

Yun Lintian's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly stepped forward and reached out to stop Lynn. However, his hands turned transparent again, causing him to miss the target.

Seeing his anxious expression, Lynn suddenly smiled contentedly and pushed the broken glass into her heart. Blood quickly gushed out, but Lynn didn't seem to be in pain at all. Her eyes kept staring at Yun Lintian until her body slowly fell backward onto the sofa.

"Why!? Why are you doing this!?" Yun Lintian fell onto his knees beside her. Tears had already flown out of his eyes as he saw Lynn gradually dying.

Lynn smiled at Yun Lintian and uttered weakly. "I'm going to your side soon… Wait… for me."

Her eyes gradually closed as soon as her voice fell. She left this world forever.

"No…" Yun Lintian's mind went blank. His body trembled non-stop as he kept sobbing. Throughout his life, he never thought there would be someone who loved him deeply to this point aside from Xia Yao, and he had let all of them down.

Xia Yao looked at Yun Lintian with a faint smile. The reason she showed this to him was to make him aware and cherish people who loved and cared for him. And it seemed Yun Lintian had realized it now.

Xia Yao stepped forward and said softly. "It's time for me to go now."

Yun Lintian shivered slightly and regained his sense. He hurriedly stood up and grabbed Xia Yao's shoulders. "What do you mean? Where are you going?"

Xia Yao raised her hand to touch his face and said with a smile. "Of course, I have to go to the place where I belong, and you will have to go back too."

Yun Lintian shook his head and grabbed Xia Yao tightly. "I don't want to let you go." His voice was full of pleading and helplessness.

"Don't worry. We will meet again… You can't escape from me, whether it's this life or the next life." Xia Yao chuckled slightly. However, the sorrow in the depth of her eyes could not be hidden from Yun Lintian.

Before Yun Lintian could say anything, Xia Yao got out of Yun Lintian's grasp and turned around, letting her back face him. "Don't forget what you've promised me… Live a good life." Her shoulders trembled slightly, and tears immediately flowed out of her eyes before her figure faded away, disappearing completely.

"No! Don't go! Yaoyao!" Yun Lintian desperately caught Xia Yao, but she had already gone. The surroundings space suddenly turned black. He stood there at a loss, without knowing what to do further.

In the hall, Lin Xinyao's eyes gradually opened. The veil on her face was thoroughly wet with tears, as though she had just gone through a tragic experience.

"Welcome back." Hongyue's voice resounded. She looked at Lin Xinyao with a faint smile.

Lin Xinyao slowly got up from the ground and glanced around briefly. Except for her, Yun Lintian and others hadn't yet woken up. 

"You understand everything now?" Hongyue asked softly.

Lin Xinyao turned her head to look at Hongyue and nodded her head. 

Hongyue suddenly laughed and said. "Hehe. Fate is amazing, isn't it?"

Lin Xinyao did not say anything and stood there silently.

Hongyue put away her smile and said. "Since you understand it now, you should know that your current strength is not enough." Seeing Lin Xinyao nod, Hongyue continued. "Since fate arranged you to be my descendant, it is inappropriate for me to do nothing. I guess I will help you a bit."

Hongyue pointed her finger at Lin Xinyao, and a streak of purple light immediately shot toward the latter and sunk into her forehead.

Lin Xinyao involuntarily closed her eyes and started to digest the information she had just obtained.

Hongyue glanced at Lin Xinyao's abdomen area. More precisely, she looked at the Hidden Moon Seal on Lin Xinyao's body. After thinking for a moment, Hongyue sent another purple light to Lin Xinyao's abdomen area. Instantly, the seal started to transform, and Lin Xinyao's strength gradually rose at a visible rate.

Hongyue nodded her head in satisfaction while muttering. "I can only help you this much.. Whether you can break through the shackles in the future, it depends on yourself."
