Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 832 Ancient Tang Clan?

After saying that, Yun Lintian took the jade slip Nantian Xuanyu gave him out and placed it on the table. "You two have already read it once. Did the surname Tang ring a bell to you?"

A trace of astonishment appeared on Guchang and Mu Qiuxue's faces. They clearly remembered a powerful Tang clan of the Skymist Ancient City written on the jade slip.

There were four great clans served under the Skymist Ancient Clan, namely Tang, Sui, Zeng, and Shi clans. It was said each of them could easily rival any of the nine palaces in this era.

Unfortunately, they met the same ending with the Skymist Ancient Clan by the sudden appearance of the violent windstorm.

The Tang clan was arguably the strongest among the four and the richest of all. On their glorious day, they could call the wind and rain on the Southern Continent as they liked. Their prestige was not inferior to the Skymist Ancient Clan in the slightest.

Guchang couldn't help picking the jade slip up and rereading its content to confirm his thought. A moment later, he put it down and said in disbelief. "It's too coincident, right? And they had been disappearing for more than thousands of years. It's hard to believe that their descendants are still alive."

He looked at Yun Lintian and said in doubt. "This could be wrong."

Yun Lintian shrugged. "Of course. This is nothing but purely guessing. I can't recall any powerful force with the surname Tang here except this one… Anyway, we can slowly observe them later."

Guchang nodded and said nothing more.

A while later, Tang Huifang came to tell them the meal was ready and brought everyone to a dining hall.

Upon arriving in the dining hall, Yun Lintian saw a white-haired old man dressed in a gray robe carefully placing several dishes on a large table one by one. His movement was slow but full of tranquility, like a calm lake on a silent night. Yun Lintian and the others could see at a glance that this person was not ordinary.

Seeing Yun Lintian's group coming, the old man raised his head to look at them and said with a kind smile. "Hello, esteemed guests. Please take a seat. The food will be ready soon."

"This is Grandpa Lu Bo. He's our inn's chef." On the side, Tang Huifang introduced the old man. "I can guarantee that the food he made is absolutely delicious."

The old man, Lu Bo, laughed gently and joked. "Your deceiving skill is getting better again, little miss." He turned to Yun Lintian and said. "I don't dare to say that my food is the best, but I can guarantee it won't be horrible."

Yun Lintian smiled faintly and took a seat. He looked at the delicacies on the table and said. "Just the aroma alone, I can see that Senior Lu's culinary skill is top-notch."

Lu Bo smiled kindly. "Just call me Old Lu. Please enjoy the meal. I'll serve a dessert later."

He turned to Tang Huifang and said. "Little miss, I'll go back to the kitchen first."

"Alright." Tang Huifang nodded and watched Lu Bo walking out of the hall.

Yun Lintian, Guchang, and Mu Qiuxue glanced at each other as if they had the same thought in their minds.

Although Lu Bo concealed his aura well, he was, undoubtedly, the Divine Ascending Tribulation expert. And judging by his performance earlier, his love and care for Tang Huifang were genuine. Now, they immediately understood why no one dared to covet this place.

"I hope you enjoy the meal, Sir." Tang Huifang said after pouring tea for everyone.

Yun Lintian suddenly asked. "Can I ask you something?"

"Yes?" Tang Huifang responded.

"How long did Senior Lu stay here?" Yu Lintian asked further.

Tang Huifang didn't know why Yun Lintian asked this, but she still answered truthfully. "I don't know how long. I only know that he's my father's personal chef."

Yun Lintian nodded. "Where is your father?"

A trace of sadness appeared on Tang Huifang's face when she heard this question. She bit her lips and replied. "He has gone missing for five years now."

"I'm sorry." Yun Lintian smiled apologetically. "However, I believe that he will return one day. Don't be sad."

"Mhm!" Tang Huifang nodded heavily.

While Yun Lintian was asking, inside the kitchen, Zhou Ya and Lu Bo stood there and listened attentively to the conversation in the dining hall. When they heard Yun Lintian's question, cold glints immediately flashed through their eyes as they looked at each other.

"Sure enough. They are here for this matter." Zhou Ya said coldly.

Meanwhile, a frown appeared between Lu Bo's brows as he spoke. "I didn't expect they could still find us here after so many years."

Zhou Ya stared coldly in the dining hall direction and asked. "Have you put it in?"

Lu Bo nodded. "Yes. They wouldn't be able to notice it."

"Very good." Zhou Ya calmly stood there, waiting for something to happen.

In the dining hall, Yun Lintian and the others had already started eating. At the first bite, Yun Lintian's expression changed slightly, as though he had discovered something in the food, but he calmly continued.

"Strange. Why do I feel sleepy?" A moment later, Fan stopped his hand and said in doubt as his eyelids began to drop down slightly.

The expressions of Guchang and Mu Qiuxue changed drastically. They hurriedly channeled their profound energy but found out they couldn't do it.

"Poison…" Guchang uttered, and his consciousness started to blur.

Bang!

Guchang and Fan's heads slammed on the table as they lost consciousness.

Meanwhile, Mu Qiuxue gritted her teeth hard, trying to stay awake while looking at the calm Yun Lintian.

"The poison is harmless. Sleep well." Yun Lintian took a sip of tea and said calmly.

Hearing this, Mu Qiuxue slowly leaned against the chair, and her head dropped slightly, losing consciousness.

"This… What's going on?" Tang Huifang stood stupidly on the side. She had no idea what was going on here.

Yun Lintian slowly put the teacup down and said. "Isn't it time to come out, Seniors?"

? As his voice fell, Zhou Ya and Lu Bo slowly walked into the hall. The first thing they did was to put Tang Huifang to sleep and look at Yun Lintian coldly.

"How did you know there's poison in the food?" Zhou Ya asked coldly. "Well, it doesn't matter… Who sent you here?"
