Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 1420 A Clue

?

Without waiting for Yun Lintian to reply, Shen Yan said further. "That's right. It should be normal for a young man like you to take a liking to her. After all, Qin Mei's appearance is top-notch. Who knows how many people drool after her all these years?"

Yun Lintian was silent. Shen Yan's words explained how powerful her status was. Even a genuine Divine King like Qin Mei could be given away like a commodity by a sentence from her. 

It seemed there was a complicated story behind the punishment Shen Yan got. Otherwise, a daughter of the Shen Clan's patriarch wouldn't have been sent to this remote place.

At the same time, Yun Lintian once again felt as if someone was pulling a string in the dark. He didn't think it would appear this peaceful if Shen Yan didn't come here but someone else. Perhaps he would have been surrounded and captured here instead.

Shen Yao continued. "As for taking a neutral stance. Don't you think it's a bit funny to ask me this?… I can tell you that no one in the entire realm doesn't take a side. The neutral stance you said is an absolute joke."

"Besides, leaving Qin Mei by your side stems from my selfishness. I want to form a good relationship with you, the Beyond Heaven King's successor. In the future, I could use your influence to deal with those old bastards in my clan."

Yun Lintian added. "You can also use her to monitor me."

Shen Yan grinned. "Smart!"

Yun Lintian stared at Shen Yan for a while and took a bunch of boxes out. "This should be enough."

Shen Yan's eyes lit up. She quickly opened the boxes to look at the contents before nodding in satisfaction. "It's barely enough."

She closed the boxes and looked at Yun Lintian strangely. "Don't tell me you're really interested in Qin Mei? Tsk. I didn't expect you to be this lustful."

As she spoke, she didn't forget to glance at Ning Yue.

Yun Lintian shrugged. "Only a fool would pass the opportunity to have a Divine King as his guard. Not to mention a beautiful and charming one."

His words made Ning Yue uncomfortable. She suddenly felt that she was nothing but a burden to Yun Lintian.

As if feeling her mood, Shen Yan glanced at Ning Yue again and asked. "Is this your little girlfriend?"

Ning Yue was stunned, not knowing how to respond.

Yun Lintian rolled his eyes at her. "She's my sister… Well, I have something to ask you. Can you help me find her parents?"

Yun Lintian firmly believed that Ning Yue's parents weren't ordinary. They were definitely alive somewhere. It must be related to the secret inside Ning Yue's body that made them leave her behind.

Shen Yan was surprised and seized Ning Yue up and down curiously. She didn't find anything special about her. Why would Yun Lintian care about her so much?

On the side, Xu Chang seemed to catch something from Ning Yue's body. He asked. "Who are her parents?"

"Her father's name is Ning Yunhai, and her mother is Cang Yuhe." Yun Lintian answered and proceeded to tell them about Ning Yue's situation.

Seeing Xu Chang frown, Shen Yan asked in doubt. "What is it, Grandpa Xu?"

Xu Chang was unsure. "The aura inside this little girl's body is very familiar to me. However, it should be impossible for her to appear here."

"What do you mean?" Shen Yan was even more curious. So did Yun Lintian and Ning Yue.

Xu Chang took a deep look at Ning Yue and said. "Her aura is similar to the aura of the Yaoxi Palace."

Shen Yan and Yun Lintian were taken aback. The Yaoxi Palace had long ceased to exist for a long time now, and the whereabouts of the Yaoxi Goddess were still unknown. It was hard to believe that she had appeared in this Heavenhold Realm. Much less had a daughter with an ordinary man. 

After all, everyone in the Divine Realm knew how obsessed she was with the Beyond Heaven King. It was impossible for her to take a random man as her husband.

Yun Lintian's eyes flickered slightly. From Madam Leisure's words, the Yaoxi Palace was full of heaven and earth treasures, and there was a connection with the Tree of Life. Hence, there was a chance that Ning Yue might be related to the Yaoxi Palace.

Yun Lintian seemed to find a breakthrough from this. As long as he could contact the Land of Beyond Heaven, Ning Yue's background would be easily identified.

Ning Yue mustered her courage and asked. "Senior, are my parents still alive?"

Xu Chang replied calmly. "If you truly have a relationship with the Yaoxi Palace, it means your parents are not ordinary people. The chance of them still alive is very high."

Ning Yue lowered her head in disappointment and said. "Thank you, Senior."

"The arrangement of fate is truly something." Shen Yan looked at Yun Lintian and Ning Yue strangely. 

One was the Beyond Heaven King's successor, and the other was likely to have a connection with the Yaoxi Palace. The two of them actually came together by chance… It was too coincidental, right?

Shen Yan nodded slightly and said. "I'll ask around later. However, you shouldn't harbor too much hope. If your parents are really extraordinary people, it must be very difficult to find them."

Ning Yue quickly bowed her head and said. "Thank you, Miss Shen."

"Just call me Sister Shen." Shen Yan suddenly had a good feeling for the little girl. "Do you want to come with me? I can keep you safe and provide you a suitable place to practice. You don't have to run around with him anymore."

Unexpectedly, Ning Yue replied almost instantly. "Thank you, Sister Shen, but I want to go with him."

Shen Yan smiled and said playfully. "Do you know he even used a false name to deceive you?"

Ning Yue replied calmly. "He must have a reason. I don't mind about it. Be it Lin Tian or Yun Lintian. It doesn't matter to me because I know who he truly is."

Yun Lintian was slightly surprised as he felt Ning Yue was different today.

Shen Yan clicked her tongue. "Tsk. What a lovely little girl you are."

She turned to look at Yun Lintian and said. "As the promise. I will leave Qin Mei to you. Treat her gently, you know?"
