Myth Beyond Heaven



The scene of a desolate desert emerged in Yun Lintian's mind. At that time, his team had a mission to destroy a mercenary group. 

"Because someone leaked our information, we had to act separately with no way of communication. We were completely isolated from each other and surrounded by the enemy in all directions." Lin Xinyao seemed to return to the past as she spoke.

Yun Lintian smiled and said. "Didn't we survive in the end?"

Lin Xinyao buried her head into his embrace further and said. "I never told you about this. In fact, I was so afraid that I wouldn't have a chance to see you again."

Yun Lintian went silent immediately. Everyone on his team wasn't afraid of death. No matter what kind of circumstance they were in, death was the last thing they would think of.

However, he didn't expect Lin Xinyao to say this. It was the first time in their two lifetimes that Lin Xinyao expressed this side to him.

"This time is the same. I'm afraid that I will never have a chance to see you again once you leave." Lin Xinyao said further. Her voice was filled with worries and fear.

Yun Lintian opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. He must leave for the Divine Realm at the end of the day. It couldn't be changed.

Lin Xinyao bathed in the warm embrace for a long while before parting and looked straight at Yun Lintian's face. "I know it's not something we can change, and I don't wish for it. So, can you promise me to pay attention to your life first? If possible, I want you to restrain your kindness and be selfish for once."

Yun Lintian suddenly leaned forward and kissed her on the lips deeply. The two stayed in that action for a while before parting.

"I promise you. I will be selfish and put my life before everything." Yun Lintian said solemnly.

Lin Xinyao smiled brightly and leaned against his chest. "Remember this moment well and think of it before risking your life. Especially risking your life for others."

"I know." Yun Lintian hugged her tightly while his mind drifted to the night scenery outside. 

He didn't know what kind of trouble he would face up there, but any trouble would definitely be several times more dangerous here. He wasn't even sure whether he could rely on the Land of Beyond Heaven to save his life.

Three months passed by very quickly. The entire world seemed to usher in a new era like a tree turned fresh leaves during this period. 

Since the World Conference, every corner of the world began to thrive. New towns and cities popped up everywhere along the newly built roads. Those people from the mountain areas emerged from seclusion, connecting to the outside world more and more.

If there was anyone who changed the most, it must be ordinary people without profound strength. After Yun Lintian's announcement, their livelihoods improved drastically.

Those worthless crops and herbs in the past had brought huge incomes to them as the demand for food and medicine rose sharply. Not to mention the Morning Rain Pavilion had accepted all the herbs, no matter what grade it was.

This change also brought peace to them. People were no longer becoming a bandit and found themselves a job in various towns and cities. Many of them were also hired by Yun Lingwei to build the infrastructure on every continent, and their incomes were extremely high, enough for them to raise their whole families.

With such a way of living, who would want to become a bandit?

Furthermore, people began to send their children to the Profound Sky Divine Academy. Even though they couldn't get in, they could still join other schools like the Star Gazing Hall and the newly established professional schools that Yun Lintian came up with.

The schools had basically provided everything, whether it was accommodation or food. Their parents could fully entrust the schools to take care of their children.

Inside a tavern of a newly built medium-sized town, several hundreds of kilometers away from the Azure Cloud Divine City, Yun Lintian, Lin Xinyao, Han Bingling, Yun Qianxue, Shen Liqiu, and Mu Qiuxue were sitting around a round table, enjoying simple delicacies while looking at the bustling scene in the dining hall.

During these three months, Yun Lintian leisurely traveled around the world with his people. They didn't care about worldly affairs and simply enjoyed the beautiful scenery.

It could be said this was the most peaceful three months they ever had in their lives.

"I can't believe the world has completely changed in just three months." A middle-aged man with an unkempt beard said while sipping a wine. His eyes were full of emotions as he glanced toward the scenery outside through the window.

Sitting opposite him was a simple middle-aged woman. From the look of it, they seemed to be a husband and wife.

"Yeah. I still feel like it was a dream." She said emotionally while filling her husband's cup.

"Mom, can I eat a cheesecake when we arrive in the city?" A twelve-year-old-looking girl who sat between the two looked at her mother and said expectantly.

The middle-aged woman patted her daughter's head lovingly and said. "Of course. Mom will buy it for you."

"Yay!" The little girl was happy and drank a mouthful of orange juice.

The three of them were originally living in a deep mountain. Their village was a type of dead-end village that couldn't possibly connect to the outside world.

However, since the roads were opened and spread to every corner of the continent, they could finally get rid of poverty and come out to see the world.

This time, they were going to send their daughter to take the Profound Sky Divine Academy exam. 

Han Bingling looked at the lovely family and said softly. "At first, I didn't understand why you wanted to develop the entire world so much, but I can see it clearly now."

The world was originally full of cruelty and chaos. People would kill each other everywhere. However, after Yun Lintian's plan took place, those unnecessary conflicts began to fade bit by bit to the point ordinary people could travel around the world without fear of getting killed like before.

Moreover, the world might look peaceful, but it was without competition. On the contrary, people became more eager to improve themselves as there were too many new competitors coming up each year…This was simply an ideal state.
