Myth Beyond Heaven

"What!? Grandma said that?" In a spacious room, a young man in his teen exclaimed in disbelief after being told by the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man said with a calm expression. "Master also told me that if second young master doesn't want to do it, I need to break your legs and drag you over."

The face of the young man, Sun Geming, was ugly beyond words upon hearing this. He wanted to get angry but immediately forced himself to calm down after thinking of Sun Ling's ruthless method.

"Can you tell me why?" He asked unwillingly.

The middle-aged man shook his head slightly. "I don't know either, but I can guess one or two things. First of all, his background is not ordinary. You might not know this, but he has a half-step Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm expert beside him."

"Secondly, he himself is a genius. He could subdue the sword, which even Elder Qing failed to do it. Just these two points alone, it would be stupid to make an enemy out of him."

Sun Geming's face instantly turned pale. He was totally clueless about this. Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to send people to snatch his sword, even if he had ten lives.

He went silent for a long time and said weakly. "What should I do?"

The middle-aged man sighed softly and said. "Let's apologize to him honestly. I believe he wouldn't do anything to you. After all, your servant was killed by Elder Qing."

Sun Geming gritted his teeth and said unwillingly. "Let's go."

The middle-aged man smiled and left with Sun Geming.

"Qing Xiaoting? Why did she appear there?" In a spacious bedroom, Xing Renshu sat on the bed while asking a beautiful woman who stood at the door. He was preparing to meditate but was interrupted by the news.

Qing Xiaoting was the Star Gazing Palace's monitoring target. Her strength was abnormally high, and her origin was mysterious. It could be said she was a pillar of the Heavenly Sword Palace.

Usually, she rarely left her Plum Blossom Peak. Who would have thought she actually appeared in the city and even killed someone?

"She went to see Lin Yun. The person she killed is a servant of the Sun Clan's Sun Geming." The woman replied.

"Lin Yun… I see. You can go back." Xing Renshu nodded gently and waved his hand dismissively.

After the woman left, Xing Renshu pondered for a moment before taking a hexagon plate with star symbols engraved on both sides. Each symbol represented six paths of heaven and hell.

He placed the plate on a large piece of paper that he spread on the bed before taking out an ancient brush and ink. The moment he dipped the tip of the brush in ink, his aura instantly changed. His friendly and lazy appearance turned into a serious one.

His eyes seemed to turn into a starry sky filled with brilliant stars as his aura surged.

The hexagon plate gradually rotated clockwise while glowing in myriad-colored lights.

At this moment, Xing Renshu's hand began to move his brush, and several characters slowly appeared on the paper.

Bang!

All of a sudden, the hexagon plate exploded into pieces, including paper, brush, and ink.

"Ugh! Cough! Cough!" Xing Renshu was sent flying by the impact and coughed up blood severely. His face turned pale, and his eyes were full of fear.

"Young Master." The woman hurriedly walked into the room and helped him up.

Xing Renshu got up from the ground and waved his hand. "I'm fine. Go out first."

The woman took a glance at the messy scene and left.

Xing Renshu took a deep breath and ran profound energy to calm his injury while thinking about what had just happened.

"What's going on? Why can't I see his fate?" He muttered to himself.

"Young Master, Du Huanfeng sent a dinner invitation here. He said he has something related to Lin Yun's identity to tell you." The woman's voice resounded from the outside.

Xing Renshu's brows raised slightly. "Tell him I will be there on time."

"Understood." The woman replied readily.

"Lin Yun…Who are you?" A strange light flashed through Xing Renshu's eyes as his curiosity toward Yun Lintian grew stronger.

"You are here to give me an apology?" In the living room, Yun Lintian looked at Sun Geming strangely.

"Yes. That person was sent by me to rob your sword." Sun Geming surprisingly being honest.

Yun Lintian chuckled. "Someone forced you to come, right?"

Sun Geming nodded. "It's my grandmother, Sun Ling."

"I see." Yun Lintian took a sip of tea and asked. "Tell me. Would you come here without her forcing you?"

Sun Geming shook his head. "I won't admit that it was me."

Yun Lintian stared at Sun Geming for a while and said with a smile. "Except for your shortsighted and narrowed vision, you are not bad."

Sun Geming frowned slightly and said nothing.

"Go back. I accept this apology. Also, tell your grandmother I will visit her after the assessment." Yun Lintian said with a smile.

"Alright." Sun Geming nodded slightly and left with the middle-aged man.

"What a busy night." Yun Lintian shook his head slightly and prepared to take a rest.

Seeing Sun Geming today meant that the Sun Clan wasn't as bad as he thought. Especially Sun Ling. It was no wonder she could be one of the Heavenly Sword Palace's supreme elders.

The following day, Yun Lintian got up early and walked out of the room to see everyone waiting for him.

"Are you ready?" Yun Lintian asked Yuan Long and his group.

Yuan Long replied with a smile. "We are more than ready."

"Good. Let's have breakfast first." Yun Lintian said and led everyone to the dining hall before heading toward Sky Breaking Avenue on the north side of the city.

When Yun Lintian's group arrived, the avenue was already crowded with a sea of people to the point they couldn't find a way to get in.

"Brother Lin." At this moment, Jian Feng walked over and greeted Yun Lintian.
