Myth Beyond Heaven

After sending Liao Delun to the underworld, Yun Lintian went to Wen Yunshan's side and checked his condition. A moment later, he slowly injected the wood element into Wen Yunshan's body.

The wounds on his body gradually healed at a visible speed. At the same time, Yun Lintian didn't forget to replenish Wen Yunshan's lifeforce in order to treat his damaged foundation.

On the side, Hu An was shocked to the core. He was well aware of how severe Wen Yunshan's injury was. It was impossible to recover within half a year, even with all the top elixirs. Yun Lintian could actually do it within a minute! This was completely beyond Hu An's comprehension.

Swoosh!

At this moment, Nantian Lingyan and the others had arrived at the scene. They looked around briefly and saw some traces of the enemy. Evidently, they were already taken care of by Yun Lintian.

"Fairy Nantian." Hu An hurriedly greeted Nantian Lingyan.

Nantian Lingyan nodded gently. "Thankfully, Senior Brother Yun made the right decision."

When they perceived a tremor earlier, they didn't think it was coming from Wen Yunshan's group, but Yun Lintian was the one who decided to take a look in case the mysterious man in black had appeared once again.

"Ugh…" Wen Yunshan opened his eyes and looked at Yun Lintian in puzzlement. The last thing he could remember was getting humiliated by Liao Delun. How come Yun Lintian appeared here?

"Brother Shan! How are you?" Hu An hurriedly asked.

"What happened?" Wen Yunshan slowly got up to a sitting posture and asked in confusion. At the same time, he realized that his injury was completely recovered. A look of shock appeared on his face as he asked. "Wait. My injury…"

"It's Senior Brother Yun. He rescued us from those Red Skull pirates and healed your injury." Hu An replied admiringly.

Wen Yunshan was stunned and turned to look at Yun Lintian. "Senior Brother Yun…"

"No need to say anything. You had overdrawn your lifeforce. It will take several years to recover. You better save your energy for now so your foundation won't get damaged further." Yun Lintian waved his hand and threw a healing pill bottle to Wen Yunshan. "Take this."

Wen Yunshan reflexly caught the bottle and said sincerely. "Thank you."

Yun Lintian nodded and sent a sound transmission to Hu An and the other eight Eternal Sword Sect disciples. "Don't talk about what you heard earlier, understand?"

Hu An was a quick-witted person. He immediately understood Yun Lintian's intention and repeatedly warned his fellow brothers.

Yun Lintian looked at everyone and said. "From the Red Skull pirates' words, they aim for the monuments at the island's center. We will go there."

Nantian Lingyan and the others naturally had no objection. However, they were slightly puzzled about why the Red Skull pirates aimed for the monuments. What was the purpose? Did they know something that they didn't?

Yun Lintian saw this, but he had no intention of explaining anything. After taking care of Hu An and the others' injuries, he immediately set off toward the island's center.

Somewhere on the island's east side, Liang Gouzhi's group had just killed a few practitioners and were in a good mood. Today's harvest was greater than they had imagined. Whether it was magical plants or artifacts, the amount they obtained was several times higher than robbing people in the past.

"Hehe. We're rich, Boss!" The chubby man laughed heartily as he looked at a pile of treasures before him.

"Hmph! You've already floated just because of this tiny profit?" Liang Gouzhi sneered, but the smile at the corner of his mouth was evident.

The chubby man chuckled. "Hehe. Too bad we are missing some chicks here. Otherwise, it would be perfect."

Liang Gouzhi curled his lips. "Wait until our captain captures those Divine Phoenix Palace girls. We can enjoy them by then."

The chubby man grinned lewdly upon hearing this. "By the way, Boss. Have you contacted Captain yet? He should have won the battle by now."

Hearing this, Liang Gouzhi frowned slightly and looked in the west direction. Earlier, he could clearly perceive that his captain, Liao Delun, was fighting with someone from the Eternal Sword Sect. Since there was no further commotion, the battle should have come to an end now.

Liang Gouzhi thought for a moment and took the transmission jade out. "Congratulations, Captain. You've won the battle again."

However, there was no response from Liao Delun after waiting for a full minute, which produced a bad premonition to appear in Liang Gouzhi's heart.

Seeing this, the chubby man couldn't help saying. "Boss, don't tell me our captain is…."

"Shut up! How could it be possible?" Liang Gouzhi cursed loudly. Even though he said this, he had to admit that there was a high chance his captain was already dead.

Liang Gouzhi hesitated for a long while and made a decision. "Leave. We will leave this place right away."

"What? It's not good, right? We will definitely get punished when we go back." The chubby man was shocked by Liang Gouzhi's decision.

"Idiot! If you want to stay here and wait for your father to kill you, then go ahead. I will leave now!" Liang Gouzhi didn't say anything further and quickly rushed in his ship's direction at full speed.

The chubby man and the others were momentarily stunned. When they came back to their sense, they hurriedly followed their boss behind.

Just as Liang Gouzhi traveled for a few kilometers, he suddenly perceived danger above his head and instinctively avoided to the side.

Boom!

A sharp aura shot out of nowhere and landed on Liang Gouzhi's original position, creating a long, deep crater on the ground.

Liang Gouzhi stabilized himself several meters away and looked at the scene in a cold sweat. If he was a split second slower, he would have been cleaved into half by now.

"Oh? You can avoid my attack?" An immature voice suddenly resounded from the sky, causing Liang Gouzhi to look upward.

What he saw was a ten or eleven-year-old boy clad in black. His face was full of childishness and innocence, but for some reason, his gaze could make a chill run down Liang Gouzhi's spine.

"I won't miss again this time." The boy giggled and waved his tiny hand, sending a sharp air blade toward Liang Gouzhi.
