Myth Beyond Heaven

“No… Ancestor is… dead?” Inside the Star Gazing Palace, more than a hundred people had utterly shocked expressions when they received the news.

The death of Xing Tengfei, Xing Yongnian, and Xing Renshu was like a tornado, blowing everyone’s mind away.

“Calm down. We have to think of a solution first. Yun Lintian will definitely come here later.” An old man clad in white said. His words carried a majestic aura, which made everyone calm down.

He was the treasury’s guardian, Xing Mu, one of the strongest members. Since Xing Guiren, the former Supreme Elder, died under Xing Chen’s scheme, he had to come out and take over the position.

“We can use the Star Annihilation Formation to deal with him. No matter how powerful he is, I don’t believe he can withstand it.” One of the elders, Xing Ye, said.

“Why are you so sure? Don’t forget that even our Ancestor had to lower his head in front of him. If he could use the formation to deal with Yun Lintian, he would use it long ago when Yun Lintian came here.” Another elder, Xing Yu, said.

At this moment, Song Jia, who deeply hated the Star Gazing Palace, stepped out and said. “I suggest that everyone submit to Sect Master Yun.”

Immediately, all eyes turned to Sun Jia.

“Submit to him? Do you know what you’re talking about, Sun Jia?” Xing Ye glared at Sun Jia coldly.

Facing everyone’s gaze, Sun Jia wasn’t afraid at all. He smiled and said. “Do you all remember that I went to invite Sect Master Yun to the conference last year?”

“What do you mean?” Xing Ye frowned.

“I want to tell all of you that you have no idea what kind of power he possesses.” Sun Jia said calmly. “I caught a glimpse of the Misty Cloud Sect’s power back then. Believe it or not. I can only say that their strength is several times higher than us combined.”

Xing Ye and the others frowned deeply. 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙.𝘯𝑒𝘵

“You’re talking nonsense, Sun Jia. According to the Star Pavilion’s reports, they are nothing but a bunch of Saints. And you said they are stronger than us?” Xing Ye shook his head.

Sun Jia chuckled and said. “I am nothing but an outer elder. I’ve already said what I should say. Everything depends on all of you.”

He paused for a second and said with a meaningful smile. “Don’t forget the Star Pavilion is not the only one that can gather information in this world.”

“Sun Jia, I remember that you are dissatisfied with our palace. Why are you trying to remind us of this?” A middle-aged man, one of the outer elders like Sun Jia, asked.

He heard Sun Jia express his dissatisfaction with the Star Gazing Palace at a banquet. Sun Jia was drunk at that time. He poured all of his bitterness and hatred out unconsciously.

Hence, watching the Star Gazing Palace crumble in Yun Lintian’s hand should be something Sun Jia wished for. Why would he suddenly want to save this place?

Several auras immediately locked onto Sun Jia when his words came out, causing him to tremble.

Xing Ye glared at Sun Jia coldly and said. “What are you trying to achieve?”

“You got me wrong.” Sun Jia said in difficulty. “I indeed hate this place, but what I hate the most is the palace master. Since he is dead now, I naturally don’t want to see this place follow him into the grave. After all, I have been living here for years. I still have some affection for it.”

Everyone looked at Sun Jia’s eyes attentively and discovered the latter didn’t seem to lie. They could only turn to Xing Mu, waiting for his decision.

Xing Mu waved his hand to dissolve the aura around Sun Jia and asked. “Tell me your thought.”

Sun Jia wiped the sweat out of his forehead and replied. “As I said, the only way for the Star Gazing Palace to survive is to surrender to Sect Master Yun.”

“Sect Master Yun is, in fact, not a cruel person like Weilan Jian or Ancestor Xing. Although there’s a grudge between him and us, it’s not that deep. It was Ancestor Xing who had a deep grudge against him. Since he’s already dead, I believe Sect Master Yun will certainly spare us.”

Xing Mu’s eyebrows raised slightly. “It seems you’re confident that the Star Annihilation Formation cannot harm him.”

Sun Jia took a deep look at Xing Mu and said. “With all respect, Elder Mu. Do you really think it can stop Sect Master Yun?”

Xing Mu went silent for a while and shook his head. “As Xing Yu said. Even our Ancestor had to lower his posture in front of Yun Lintian. I couldn’t say I knew him well, but a cautious person like him would never do something he was unsure about. Since he didn’t dare to use the formation to deal with Yun Lintian, it meant he had no confidence at all.”

“Therefore, I don’t think the formation can do anything to Yun Lintian.”

“And it will definitely lead us to hell once we start it.” Sun Jia added.

Sun Jia looked at Xing Ye and asked. “Fourth Elder, have you ever noticed that the information of Yun Lintian from the Star Pavilion was too obvious?”

Xing Ye frowned slightly, recalling the information about Yun Lintian that he got from the Star Pavilion. Suddenly, he discovered that it was like Sun Jia said. Yun Lintian’s information was too transparent. It was as if someone deliberately let the Star Pavilion know it.

“You mean…?” Xing Ye became uncertain.

Sun Jia nodded. “When I traveled between the continent back then, I discovered something strange. There seemed to be a group of people lurking behind me all the time… Not just me, but every Star Pavilion branch had also been watched.”

“The concealing ability of these people was top-notched. I even suspected that they deliberately showed themselves for me to notice. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have detected the abnormality at all.”

Sun Jia took a deep breath and said with a serious expression. “Although I am not sure whether they are Sect Master Yun’s people, they are standing on his side for sure.”

A chill ran down everyone’s spine upon hearing this. If Yun Lintian had truly mastered the information, it meant everyone had been deceiving for all this time. And this included Xing Tengfei and Xing Yongnian.

It was at this moment did they realize what kind of monster they were facing.
