Myth Beyond Heaven

Amidst heavy snow, several horse carriages moved along with the main road, heading toward north. At the leading carriage, Yun Lintian controlling the horse while Yun Huanxin had occasionally thrown a fireball to melt the snow on the path ahead.

"Don't you think it's a bit strange? There are too many profound beasts here." Said Yun Qianxue, who sat beside Yun Lintian.

Yun Lintian also thought the same. "But I found nothing. These profound beasts didn't seem to get any stimulation as I thought."

It had been three days since they left the Black Eagle Bandit camp. Along the way, they had encountered several Essence and Spirit Profound Beasts. It was understandable if the profound beast was desperately trying to find food, but Yun Lintian later found their stomachs were full. This showed that they weren't blindly attacking Yun Lintian's group out of hunger.

Furthermore, from Feng Yu's words, a profound beast rarely appeared near the main road, even during the winter. Yun Lintian tried to figure out the cause behind all of this, but even with his medical skill couldn't find anything out of the profound beast. It was the same as he couldn't find any trace of poison within the wilted crops.

"I think we've bumped into a continent-level conspiracy now." Yun Lintian said with a trace of worry. 

He wasn't an alarmist, but everything he encountered so far had pointed in this direction. Of course, he could hide in the Land of Beyond Heaven if something really happened, but could he hide for the rest of his life? The answer was no. 

Yun Qianxue and Yun Huanxin were also agreed with Yun Lintian. They had lived for many years, and this was the first time they had witnessed something like this. They couldn't imagine how terrifying the person behind all of this was.

Time passed by, the row of carriages gradually entering the Green Leaf Town's territory. Yun Lintian looked ahead through the heavy snow and saw a silhouette of stone walls a hundred meters away. He urged the horse to speed up and arrived in front of a huge stone gate with the words' Welcome to Green Leaf Town' carved on it.

Before the gate, four people in thick fur clothes stood around a fireplace. When they saw Yun Lintian's carriage approaching them, one of them took a step forward and raised his hand to stop Yun Lintian.

"Stop! I am the guard leader. Please tell me your name and your purpose for visiting our Green Leaf Town." The guard leader said.

Yun Lintian got off the carriage with Yun Qianxue and Yun Huanxin. He cupped his fists and said, "Hello, big brother. My name is Ye Xiu, and this is my sisters, Ye Xue and Ye Xin. We happened to meet a bandit group along the way, and we've eliminated them." He then pointed to several carriages behind him. "I've rescued all the captive women and children, and I planned to send them here. After all, their villages have been destroyed already."

The guard leader stared at Yun Lintian for a while and signaled his comrades to check every carriage. 

"Are you Miss Feng?" Suddenly, one of the guards exclaimed in surprise when he saw Feng Yu stepped out of the carriage.

"It's me." Feng Yu nodded her head. 

Yun Lintian was surprised slightly. He thought Feng Yu was an ordinary merchant and didn't expect her to be this influential. Even the guard could recognize her, which means her identity was not ordinary as she told him.

Feng Yu strode forward to Yun Lintian's side and said to the man, "I am Feng Yu, the eldest daughter of Feng Trading Hall." She then showed a small jade token with the word 'Feng' engraved on it to the guard.

The guard leader carefully checked the token and respectfully returned it to Feng Yu. He said with a smile, "It turned out to be Miss Feng… But I wonder how did you appear here along with them?"

Feng Yu explained, "It's a long story. In short, I was robbed by the bandit, and this Young Master Ye saved me. Can we go in now? There are many children here. I am worried they might catch a cold."

"Ah… Yes, please enter." The guard leader hastily stepped aside and made an inviting gesture. 

Feng Yu smiled slightly and turned to Yun Lintian. "Young Master Ye, you can follow me to my house. I will arrange a residence for everyone. What do you think?" There was a trace of excitement in her voice. It seemed she couldn't wait to see her parents again.

Yun Lintian looked at this plump woman in front of him and was admired her inwardly. After going through all the pain, she could still hold herself together and didn't lose her mind. This showed her mentality was extremely strong.

"Then, I'll have to trouble Miss Feng." Yun Lintian accepted her invitation. Since Feng Yu's family was operating the trading hall, finding spirit plant seeds would be more convenient with her helps.

Yun Lintian and the rest went back to the carriage and entered through the town's gate.

What came to Yun Lintian first was a tidied gravel street full of people — some were talking and walking, and some were clearing snow out of the streets. There were several stores and inns on both sides, bustling with customers. 

"Is this place really a town?" Yun Huanxin looked around in surprise because this town was no different from a small city at all.

Yun Lintian and Yun Qianxue were also thought the same. The scale of this town was on par with those small cities. 

"They didn't seem to have a food shortage?" Yun Lintian was puzzled when he saw many stalls were selling food in full swing, as though they never suffered from the poisoning incident.

Feng Yu, who sat inside Yun Lintian's carriage, was confused as well. Before she left this place one month ago, everyone was still discussed how to lower food consumption. However, the scene in front of her says otherwise.

"What's going on?" Feng Yu muttered in puzzlement. She then told Yun Lintian. "Young Master Ye, please turn left ahead. For this matter, I will ask my parents about it."contemporary romance

Yun Lintian nodded and controlled the carriage, heading toward Feng Yu's residence.
