Myth Beyond Heaven

Lin family’s courtyard was located in Greenwood Town, one of the most prosperous towns on the Northern Plateau. At this moment in the backyard, early morning sunlight passed through the thriving wormwood, landing on a sixteen-year-old youth, Lin Tianyun. His rather handsome face was sweaty as he held a relatively giant axe with both hands and struck down a thick log before him.

Bang!

The log was cut into two pieces and fell sideways onto the ground. Lin Tianyun exhaled a long breath and wiped the sweat off his forehead. A tired look could be seen on his face, but his eyes were filled with determination as he had to finish the task within a limited time.

“Bastard! Who told you to take a rest!?” An irritated male voice rang out from a distance as a group of three youths appeared in the backyard.

Hearing this, Lin Tianyun’s face fell, but he didn’t utter a word and started chopping the log.

“Do you want me to teach him a lesson, Young Master Lin?” A skinny boy asked a tall, handsome young man dressed in a luxury white robe, with his face full of flattery. As he spoke, he glared fiercely at Lin Tianyun as if he couldn’t wait to kick the latter.

“That’s right, Young Master Lin. Why don’t you let us teach him a lesson? Perhaps he would become more pleasing in your eyes after getting a few beatings.” Another burly man on the handsome youth’s left side said with a grin. His gaze was firmly fixated on Yun Lintian as if an eagle were looking at its prey.

“No need! He’s just a lowly servant. I don’t want to lower myself to his level.” The handsome youth said arrogantly as he looked at Lin Tianyun through the corner of his eyes. His name was Lin Musong, the second young master of the Lin family.

Of course, Lin Tianyun heard everything, but he chose to ignore them and continued to chop the logs calmly.

Seeing Lin Tianyun ignore them, Lin Musong was dissatisfied in his heart, but his pride didn’t allow him to say anything further. Otherwise, he would become a man who swallowed his own saliva.[1]

He glanced at the two lackeys beside him, and they seemed to understand the meaning.

The skinny youth, Lin Chi, suddenly said. “By the way, Young Master Lin. I heard you’re going to send Lin Qianxue to work in the brothel. Is it true?”

The burly youth, Lin Kang, immediately echoed. “Tsk, tsk, tsk. This Lin Qianxue has a superb figure. Especially her abundant breasts. Tsk, I really want to touch them…Hehe. I am sure she would make a lot of money for us.”

“Mhm.” Lin Musong gave a low hum in reply while observing Lin Tianyun.

As he had expected, Lin Tianyun immediately had a reaction. He stopped his movement and turned to look at Lin Musong’s group with bloodshot eyes. His right hand tightly clenched on the axe hilt, to the point it turned completely white.

“You… What did you just say!? I dare you to say it again!” Lin Tianyun said coldly.

“What? You want to hear it again?… Then listen carefully. I believe that your mother would earn a lot of money with her superb body. Hehe. Maybe I would buy her service lat….” Before Lin Kang could finish his sentence, a shadowy object suddenly passed by his face, accompanied by a strong wind.

Bang!

The giant axe flew past Lin Kang’s cheek and went straight to a thick tree behind, causing the whole tree to tremble.

Lin Musong’s group was startled for a moment, and when they came to their senses, Lin Kang had already screamed while clutching his right ear. “Eh… Ah… Arghh!”

Blood kept gushing through the gaps between his fingers as his face contorted in pain. On the ground beneath him, his fresh ear that had just been cut laid on it peacefully.

Lin Musong and Lin Chi were pale in fright. Especially Lin Musong. As someone who had been pampered throughout his life, he had never been close to death like this before.

Although he was frightened to the core, Lin Musong managed to stand on the ground in the end. This showed he still had some qualities.

He pointed at Yun Lintian and stammered frightfully. “How dare you… you… a murder!” As he spoke, he subconsciously enhanced his voice with profound energy, allowing everyone in the courtyard to hear it clearly.

“You said that again, and the axe won’t miss next time.” Lin Tianyun said coldly. His face was full of ferocity. If it wasn’t because him still having the last bit of consciousness, he would have killed Lin Kang with this strike already.

He turned to look at Lin Musong and said. “And you! Don’t think that because you are the young master of this family, and I won’t dare to do anything!” His chest heaved up and down. Obviously, he was extremely furious. “I don’t care if you want to beat me, but if you dare to touch my mother, I will personally cut your head and feed to wolf out there!”

“You!” Lin Musong was frightened to the core as his legs turned soft. 𝑏𝘦𝘥𝑛𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝑚

“What a big tone! Who gives you the courage to threaten my son?” At this moment, a cold male voice resounded from behind, and a dignified middle-aged man with sharp eyes slowly walked into the backyard.

His hands were calmly placed behind his back as he stared at Lin Tianyun coldly.

Instantly, Lin Tianyun felt horrible pressure pressing down on his whole body. No matter how he tried to resist, it was useless in the end. With a thud, he fell onto his knees while using his arms to force himself to stay in that posture.

Lin Tianyun stubbornly returned a cold stare to the middle-aged man while gritting his teeth. His face was full of deep hatred when he looked at the man.

For some reason, the middle-aged man seemed to see an image of a ferocious beast overlapping with Lin Tianyun. His face grew solemn, and he exerted his strength more. “How dare you look back!?”
