Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 763 Overall Situation Of The Southern Continent

Somewhere deep in the sea, a man that was no different from a bag of bones opened his eyes. His pair of gloomy and hollow eyes penetrated the dark sea and gazed in Yun Lintian's direction.

"Who is it? Dared to mess with my work?" His voice was hoarse and dry like he had never had water for ages.

At this moment, an eerie black figure slowly appeared beside him, and he said. "Go. Take a look at it."

The black figure swayed faintly and disappeared from the place.

The man kept staring for a while and closed his eyes, continuing to meditate.

After burning the ship, Yun Lintian flew back to the iron ship, and the young woman stepped forward. "Greetings, Senior. My name is Xu Yudie. Thank you for saving my people and me."

Yun Lintian smiled faintly and said. "No need to be polite. We helped you because we need something from you."

The young woman, Xu Yudie, was taken aback. She didn't expect Yun Lintian to be so straightforward as this. She said. "Please ask away. I will try my best to satisfy Senior's request. If I can't do it, my Gold Coin Trading Group should be able to do it."

The middle-aged man behind her looked at Yun Lintian cautiously. He was afraid Yun Lintian would put in an excessive request.

Yun Lintian waved his hand. "It's nothing big. Don't be nervous. I just want to ask about the Southern Continent. This is the first time we have come to this place."

Xu Yudie was surprised slightly. At first, she thought Yun Lintian and Mu Qiuxue were coming from the Southern Continent. After all, she didn't see any ship nearby. How could Yun Lintian fly across the Endless Sea?

She thought for a moment and said. "How about this, Senior? Two Seniors can come with us. We're heading to the Southern Continent for business. I can slowly tell you about the Southern Continent along the way."

"Quite clever." Yun Lintian chuckled. "Are you looking for a free bodyguard?"

Xu Yudie laughed gently. "I won't hide anything from Senior. I indeed need two seniors' help."

"No wonder you can do a business well." Yun Lintian nodded and asked curiously. "I don't quite understand. Judging from your look, you seem to have high status in the group. Why would you travel without top experts?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man behind was frustrated. He had to admit that his strength was too low. If Yun Lintian and Mu Qiuxue didn't appear, his Young Miss would definitely die here.

Xu Yudie saw this. She patted the middle-aged man's shoulder and said softly. "Don't blame yourself, Uncle Ren. It's my fault for being willful."

The middle-aged man, Ren Haiyang, shook his head. "Don't comfort me, Young Miss. I am indeed weak. I can't even protect you. I will receive a punishment when I go back."

Xu Yudie wanted to say something but held back in the end. She let out a soft sigh. "It's alright. Uncle should go inside to treat your wound first."

Ren Haiyang hesitated briefly and walked into the cabin.

Xu Yudie turned to Yun Lintian and said. "It's because I didn't inform anyone when I came out."

"In other words, you are sneaking out?" The corner of Yun Lintian's mouth curved up as he spoke.

Xu Yudie smiled and said. "Shall we go inside?"

"Lead the way." Yun Lintian opened his hand and followed Xu Yudie into the cabin with Mu Qiuxue.

The cabin's interior naturally couldn't be compared to the Heavenly Cloud Profound Skyship, but it could be considered luxurious enough. Everything was made from expensive materials, whether a chair, table, or other furniture. This showed how wealthy the Gold Coin Trading Group was.

Yun Lintian unceremoniously sat down on the comfortable-looking leather chair and beckoned Mu Qiuxue to sit down beside him.

Ren Haiyang came over to pour cups of tea for them before retreating to the side.

Xu Yudie took a sip of tea and asked. "What do two seniors want to know?"

"Well, you can tell us the overall situation." Yun Lintian said and took a sip. Although the tea couldn't be compared to his own, it was considered top-quality. It seemed Xu Yudie wasn't stingy at all.

"The Southern Continent is the third largest continent after the Western Continent. Its geological position allows the place to a lot of volcanoes and rivers, resulting in abundant minerals. Most of the minerals we are using are usually imported from here." Xu Yudie explained.

"As Seniors might have aware of this, the continent is dominated by the Divine Phoenix Palace. They are located at the continent's center, surrounded by three mountains known as Divine Phoenix Mountain Range."

"Aside from the Divine Phoenix Palace, there are four major forces, namely, Driftsnow Pavilion, Eternal Sword Sect, Great Earth Sect, and Plum Mountain Sect. Plum Mountain Sect has the highest prestige among them, followed by Eternal Sword Sect, Great Earth Sect, and Driftsnow Pavilion."

"These four major forces are basically treating each other as an enemy. Because of the Divine Phoenix Palace's presence, they don't dare to go too as far as fighting to dead."

Xu Yudie paused for a moment and took a leather map out. She pointed at the northern part of the continent and said. "We will soon arrive in this Sunlight Port City. It is one of the biggest cities on the continent."

Yun Lintian nodded thoughtfully. He looked at the map for a while and pointed at a cyclone symbol between the Sunlight Port City and the Great Earth Sect. "What is this place?"

Xu Yudie glanced at it and explained. "This is the most dangerous place called Skymist Ancient City. It was said to be the most prosperous city in the past but later suffered from an unknown violent tempest. The city is now occupied by raging storms. Everyone always chooses to avoid this route."

She looked at Yun Lintian and asked curiously. "Senior wants to go there? I suggest that you should give up. It's too dangerous."
