Myth Beyond Heaven

“Not bad. This inn is worth the money.” Looking at a simple yet elegant decoration in a bedroom, Yun Lintian smiled in satisfaction.

Since he left the street, he found an inn nearby to settle in. This inn was called Dreamy Night Inn. The reason Yun Lintian chose this place was mainly because of the decoration. It was aligned with his taste.

Yun Lintian sat on the cotton bed and placed Linlin beside him. He planned to take a good rest for a while and continue to gather information later in the evening.

Knock! Knock!

As Yun Lintian was about to lie down, a knocking sound rang out, confusing him for a moment. He was sure Mu Qiuxue had no business with him at the moment.

He stood up and went to open the door. Immediately, he saw the woman, who had performed a music show on the street earlier, standing in front of his room.

Her pair of captive eyes glued on Yun Lintian’s face for a moment, and she said. “Greetings, Young Master. I’m sorry to disturb your rest, but I really need to know something.”

Yun Lintian frowned slightly. “Miss, we didn’t seem to know each other, right?”

He couldn’t think of any reason for the woman to come here. After all, he had just arrived in this city. What business could she have with him?

The woman’s lips pursed slightly, and she said. “Endless Dream.”

Yun Lintian’s eyes flickered when he heard this. He didn’t expect this woman to be someone from the Endless Dream Dancing Hall, his Second Sister Murong Xue’s background.

“Please come in.” Yun Lintian stepped aside and invited the woman into the room.

The woman didn’t say anything further and sat on a chair without waiting for Yun Lintian to invite her.

Yun Lintian wasn’t stingy. He took out his own top-grade spirit tea and poured a cup for her. “Tell me, why are you here?”

“Good tea!” The woman’s eyes lit up after sipping the tea. She had tasted countless spirit teas before, but none of them could compare to this one. It was the best among the best.

She reluctantly put the cup down and stared at Yun Lintian. “I should be the one who asks the question. Tell me, how did you have Young Miss Murong’s token with you?”

Shit! Second Sister, you harm me!… Yun Lintian couldn’t help lament in his heart. He didn’t expect the disciples from the Endless Dream Dancing Hall could notice the token even though he put it in his Interspatial Ring.

The woman seemed to see through Yun Lintian’s thoughts. She chuckled gently. “You don’t have to worry. Except for the Hall Master, Young Miss Murong, and I, I don’t think anyone can perceive the token’s aura.”

Yun Lintian didn’t feel relieved when he heard this. It would be best if no one couldn’t perceive it.

“Shouldn’t you introduce yourself first? Don’t you think it’s a bit rude?” Yun Lintian took a sip of tea and said calmly.

The woman curled her lips. “My name is Jun Rumeng. Satisfy? Now tell me.”

“Who are you to my Second Sister?” Yun Lintian revealed the relationship directly.

“Your Second Sister?… Are you coming from the Northern Sky Throne Profound Academy?” The woman, Jun Rumeng, was taken aback.

“Otherwise?” Yun Lintian responded.

Jun Rumeng took a deep look at Yun Lintian and said. “No wonder she gave you her personal token. You must be very important to her.”

Yun Lintian frowned but said nothing. 𝒃𝒆𝒅𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝒎

“You don’t know?” Jun Rumeng asked in doubt. “If there’s no mistake, Young Miss Murong will be the next Hall Master in the coming years. Having her token is equivalent to having her as your backup. It means the entire Endless Dream Dancing Hall must be obeyed your command.”

Yun Lintian was surprised to hear this. Although he guessed that Murong Xue’s background was extremely powerful, he didn’t expect her to have such a high status. Furthermore, she actually gave him her personal token. It seemed she was genuinely concerned about him.

“What is your name? You’re really lucky to have her as your senior sister.” Jun Rumeng said in an envious tone.

“Yun Lintian.” Yun Lintian replied. “How long have you been here?”

“Two years. Why?” Jun Rumeng was puzzled. In the next moment, she seemed to think of something. “Are you going to ask me about Heaven Vault Island?”

“Oh? Look like the intelligence network of your dancing hall is quite impressive.” Yun Lintian smiled faintly.

Jun Rumeng said proudly. “Of course. The moment you were invited by Tong Liya, we’ve already kept an eye on you.”

“Good. It is much easier, then.” Yun Lintian nodded. “Why don’t you tell me about Heaven Vault Island and the overall situation here?”

“Why should I?” Jun Rumeng snorted softly.

An exquisite blue plate appeared on Yun Lintian’s hand as he said. “What about I use this?”

“You…” Jun Rumeng was speechless. Yun Lintian actually took the token out for such a trivial matter.

She had no choice but to comply. “Well, Heaven Vault Island appeared around two thousand years ago. It is covered by a thick fog all year round and will open on a full moon day. There’s also a restriction over there. Only below the Saint Profound Realm can enter the place.”

“In there, countless precious plants and materials could be seen everywhere. In addition to not-so-dangerous traps, there are four strange monuments at the island’s center. It remains mysterious even now.”

Jun Rumeng took a sip of tea and continued. “Tong Liya probably told you something already. On the last full moon, the disciples of the four great forces had mysteriously disappeared from the island. One of the Plum Mountain Sect’s disciples managed to send a message back, saying they met a strange person clad in black from head to toe. And that’s the only clue everyone has.”

“The next full moon is a week later. This time, the four forces made an agreement to allow outsiders to get in. That’s why she targeted you.”

Yun Lintian nodded. “It doesn’t matter. I’m not interested in it.”

“Are you sure? According to our information, there are several kinds of Divine-rank treasures over there.” Jun Rumeng curled her lips. She didn’t believe Yun Lintian wasn’t tempted.
