Myth Beyond Heaven

"This matter ends here. I don't wish to see this kind of scene again in the future, understand?" Lin You looked at the father and son duo with a solemn expression.

Lin Mucheng knew he was out of play today. He could only accept his mother's reprimand. "Yes, mother. I'll leave first."

Following that, he walked away without looking back, followed by Lin Musong, who gave a fierce glare at Lin Tianyun before leaving.

Lin Qianxue bowed her head ninety degrees and said gratefully. "Thank you, old master, for helping us. And I am sorry for causing trouble. This situation won't happen again in the future."

Lin You stared at Lin Qianxue and Lin Tianyun for a while and let out a soft sigh. "It's been hard for you." She rummaged through her pocket and took a jade bottle out before stuffing it in Lin Qianxue's hand. "Apply this to him."

"This is too precious, old master. I cannot accept it." Lin Qianxue was startled for a second and hurried pushed the jade bottle back to Lin You.

"It's only a few taels. How precious it could be?" Lin You pushed the bottle back. "Take it. Do you want to see him die?"

Lin Qianxue glanced at his son and bit her lips. The wounds on Lin Tianyun's body made her heart ache. "Thank you, old master. I will definitely repay this debt of gratitude."

Lin You smiled faintly. "Go, take him back first."

"Then I'll excuse myself first." Lin Qianxue bowed her head again and quickly carried Lin Tianyun away toward her residence.

Watching the two left, the young lady beside Lin You said softly. "Grandma, you should find a way to send them away as soon as possible. I'm afraid they won't last long in this place."

Hearing this Lin You sighed. "It wasn't that I didn't want to, but she has lost her profound strength completely. Sending her away at this point is no different from killing them. With her appearance, she is destined to be the center of attention wherever she goes… Although staying here is not good, it's several times better than wandering around outside."

Lin You tilted her head to look at her granddaughter and said softly. "Ling'er, I hope you can forgive him one day."

The young lady, Lin Ling'er, responded coldly. "I will never forgive him for what he did to my mother." Afterward, she walked away without caring for Lin You.

Lin You watched her walking away and sighed sadly. "Everything is because of me. If I hadn't spoiled him since he was young, perhaps he wouldn't become such a person…."

***

In a dilapidated wooden hut nearby the backyard, Lin Qianxue placed Lin Tianyun on a bamboo bed and meticulously applied the medicine to his wounds. Her movement was gentle and full of tenderness.

"Yun'er, why did you lose yourself today?" Lin Qianxue asked softly. "Mom told you many times that you should ignore them no matter what. Fortunately, the old master came in time. Otherwise, mom doesn't know what to do anymore."

Lin Tianyun resisted the pain and said in difficulty while staring at his mother's beautiful face. "They said something bad about you. I couldn't ignore it."

Lin Qianxue's hand paused as she looked at her son lovingly. "I know, but as mom said, their words can't hurt me. So, you shouldn't care about them."

Lin Tianyun's lips twitched as if he wanted to say something, but he held back. In the end, he said gently. "I'm sorry, mom. If you hadn't met me, your life wouldn't become like this… Ouch!"

As he spoke halfway, Lin Qianxue suddenly poked at his wound and said angrily. "I don't allow you to say that!"

Lin Tianyun shut his mouth tight but kept staring at his mother's face. He was aware of the background of this peerless woman in front of him.

Lin Qianxue, the former direct disciple and a true successor of the Divine Moon Palace, possessed a brilliant talent that appeared once in one hundred thousand years. With her qualification and ability, she had the right to look down on the whole world.

However, her life entirely changed when she ventured into a secret realm called the Ancient Cloud Divine Realm. She discovered an ancient city within the secret realm. While looking around, she suddenly heard a baby cry carried by the wind. Out of curiosity, she followed the sound and saw a tiny male infant lying on a small altar in the city's center.

For some reason, the moment she saw the infant, her heart was instantly overwhelmed with maternal love, which drove her forward, drawing closer to the infant.

At that moment, a golden light suddenly burst out, enveloping Lin Qianxue, and sucking all of her profound strength away.

When the golden brilliance passed, Lin Qianxue discovered she had become a complete mortal. All of her profound strength had vanished forever, unable to recover no matter how hard she tried to absorb the surrounding profound energy.

While she was at a loss, the infant slowly opened his eyes and looked around curiously. When his gaze landed on Lin Qianxue, he let out a smile that completely melted Lin Qianxue's heart and washed all the sorrows she had away.

At this moment, Lin Qianxue believed exchanging her profound strength with one life was worth it.

Later, when she returned to the Divine Moon Palace, Lin Qianxue explained everything to her master. Under pressure from the palace elders, her master had no choice but to strip her status and let her live in peace somewhere near the palace.

After all of this, Lin Qianxue didn't feel anything much. She poured her heart into raising the baby boy, Lin Tianyun, and taught him how to be a fine man. Unfortunately, Lin Tianyun was born with a disabled profound vein. He was unable to practice and was destined to be a mortal for the rest of his life. Although it was a pity, Lin Qianxue felt this way was also good. She could accompany him throughout her life.

Everything went well until Lin Tianyun reached ten years old. The life of the two completely turned upside down since then….
