Myth Beyond Heaven-Chapter 41 - Misty Cloud’s Crisis (1)

"Thank you, Junior Brother Yun." Yun Ting broke the silence. She wiped the tears away and smiled sweetly at Yun Lintian.

Actually, Yun Lintian had anticipated the worst scenario before he decided to torture Luo Kun. He knew these brutal actions might cause his senior sisters to fear him, but he still chose to do it with no regret. To him, it was fine if the enemy hurt him directly. However, if it was someone close to him who got hurt. He would do everything to pay back to the enemy several folds. ??

Yang Chen woke up from the state of comprehension and saw the atmosphere wasn't right. He asked in puzzlement, "What's wrong?"

Yang Mengli and Hua Wanru glanced at Yang Chen with complicated emotions. They didn't know how to tell him the incident.

"It's nothing. I just tortured Luo Kun to death earlier, and the scene is too violent, adult-only rating. My actions scare them." Yun Lintian took the initiative to speak up.

Yang Chen nodded his head and asked confusedly, "What is the adult-only rating?"

"Ugh… nothing. I was talking nonsense." Yun Lintian realized he had slipped his tongue and didn't know how to explain this.

Yang Chen didn't linger on this topic further. He looked at everyone and said, "Why are you all scared? Think about it, how many people have died tragically in Luo Kun's hands? Although I didn't see Brother Yun's action, I think it could not be more brutal than what Luo Kun has done to those victims. Don't you think he deserves this?"

Hua's sisters and Yang Mengli looked at each other and nodded their heads. It was true as Yang Chen said. Compared to those victims, what Yun Lintian did to Luo Kun was nothing at all. Luo Kun fully deserved to be tortured like this.

Seeing this, Yun Lintian looked at Yang Chen with gratitude, and he walked toward Yan Qi.

"Wait a minute, Brother Yun." Yang Chen stopped him and said further, "Brother Yun, can you help us locate our people?"

Yun Lintian nodded, "Sure. I'm sorry, I forgot about this." He then showed them Yang Ping, Hua Fei, and the rest's locations to everyone and said while pointing at the map projection, "There is a map here. You can check it."

"Thank you, Brother Yun." Yang Chen said with a smile and got busy contacting Yang Ping via the modified transmission jade that was given by Yun Chan.

"Let's go to the next room." Yan Qi said and led Yun Lintian along with Little Flame to the previous The Sun's room.

Misty Cloud Peak

"You're still as beautiful as ever, Qianxue." Floating in the air, Huo Han crossed his arms looked at Yun Qianxue with desire.

Behind him, there were around thirty elders, all of them were at least the first level of Heaven Profound Realm. On the ground, a thousand disciples were lining up, surrounding the Misty Cloud Peak.

At present, Yun Qianxue stood behind a blue translucent barrier of the sect's Grand Protection Formation, staring at Huo Han with a cold and indifferent expression. She said calmly, without slight anger, "Why don't you call that old thing Huo Yan to come out? What's the point of hiding around like a rat?" She glanced around a group of clouds in the sky and said further, "Qi Qianxing, Ji Muchen. Since both of you are here, why don't you show yourself?"

"We haven't seen each other for several years. It seems Snow Cloud Fairy hasn't changed at all." Ji Muchen emerged from the cloud and said with faint laughter. There were around twenty people who appeared along with him.

Yun Qianxue didn't reply to Ji Muchen as she waiting for Qi Qianxing to come out.

"Are you looking for Your Majesty? Dealing with all of you doesn't need him to come personally. With me here is enough." An old man clad in the Qi clan's attire floated down from the cloud.

"Qi Ximing." Said Yun Ruanyu, who stood beside Yun Qianxue. There was a slight surprise on her face upon seeing this old man because this man was Qi Qianxing's most trusted aide. His strength could not be underestimated, as he was at the first level of Ruler Profound Realm.

Qi Ximing glanced at Yun Ruanyu briefly and shifted to Yun Qianxue. "You better surrender yourself to avoid unnecessary bloodbath… Look at your disciples, do you want them to die pointlessly because of your stubbornness?"

Huo Han added with a smirk, "That's right. Just surrender and become my wife obediently, Qianxue. As for all of your disciples, I will pair them with my disciples. Don't you think it's a perfect ending?"

"Are you finished?" Yun Qianxue responded indifferently.

"Hmm?" Huo Han frowned slightly. He was confused by her indifferent attitude. It was as if she was confident to overcome this battle.

"Do you think this Grand Protection Formation can protect all of you forever? Aren't you too na?ve?" Huo Han said while measuring the barrier carefully.

"Why don't you try then?" Yun Qianxue's replied with a hint of provocation.

At this time, it was Qi Ximing who frowned. He didn't believe Yun Qianxue would be so na?ve to rely on the Grand Protection Formation alone. He looked around and thought of something. "Where is that little girl who likes to play hide and seek? I'll tell you, it's useless to do such a trick in front of me."

Hearing this, Huo Han immediately realized that Yun Meilan was nowhere to be seen. His eyes narrowed with a cold smile and said with contempt. "So this is your trump card? Heh…"

However, Ji Muchen did not think like that. He used his Spiritual Sense to scan the surrounding warily, but he found nothing peculiar which made a frown between his brows grew deeper.

Before coming here, he was aware of the Misty Cloud Sect's long heritage. They might possibly have a hidden trump card that could turn the tide around in a crucial moment. Therefore, Ji Muchen intended to play an onlooker's role in this upcoming battle, but for some reason, he felt extremely uneasy in his heart. It was as if he won't be able to escape from the anticipated danger no matter how cautious he was. f𝘳𝚎𝑒𝚠𝑒𝚋𝘯o𝘃eƖ.co𝓂

"If you want to fight, then fight. What's the point of this nonsense?" Yun Qianxue appeared impatient and drew a long sword made of ice from the sheath along with a deep blue light. It was a Divine rank weapon, Misty Cloud Divine Sword.

The sword was around 100 centimeters in length, deep blue in color. Its cross-guard had the shape of an ice phoenix as the phoenix's wings were stretched out on both sides and its head straight up to the blade. The ice phoenix was so exquisite in details and as vivid as if it came to life.

Ji Muchen and Qi Ximing's eyes lit up when they saw this sword. Especially Ji Muchen, as a sword practitioner, it was his greatest dream to have such a divine sword. His keen perception told him this Misty Cloud Divine Sword was hundred… No! Thousand times stronger than his Profound Sword of Calamity, the inheritance of the Profound Sword Sect. Thinking of this, his eyes immediately filled with greed. No matter what, he had to take this sword away for himself.

Qi Ximing was no exception. As a Ruler Profound Realm's practitioner, he had more experiences than anybody around here. He had seen many Monarch rank treasures before, but none of them could be compared to this Misty Cloud Divine Sword… If I can get this sword, no one in the entire Heavenly Fortune Nation could be his opponent. Maybe even in the entire Northern Continent. He thought.

Yun Qianxue noticed the changes in them and laughed coldly in her heart. She knew what were they thinking about. However, what they didn't know was only the Sect Master of the Misty Cloud Sect can use this sword. Even they could get a hand on it, it would be just a piece of ice stick to them.

Normally, this divine sword was one of the greatest secrets of the Misty Cloud Sect. Except for the sect's founder, all of the previous generation's sect masters never showed it to the outsides. Since this time the sect was facing a grave crisis in its history, Yun Qianxue didn't have to conceal it anymore.

Huo Han's pupils shrank slightly when his gaze landed on the sword. Huo Yan's words appeared in his mind… Could it be this is the relic that Ancestor has looking for?

Thinking of this, Huo Han waved his hand, ordering thirty elders behind him to attack.

Each one of them released a powerful aura, charging at Yun Qianxue and the rest. 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Their attacks collided with the barrier, causing deafening sounds to reverberate throughout the area. Despite that, they could not penetrate the barrier even in the slightest.

"Continue." Huo Han spoke calmly. He wasn't impatient about it. As long as they continued to bombard, sooner or later, the Profound stones on Yun Qianxue's hands would be completely depleted and the barrier would be gone by then.

"Go." Ji Muchen told everyone behind him, and they dashed toward the barrier.

With the addition of the Profound Sword Sect's Elders, the barrier started to shake and there were several small cracks appeared on it. However, they were quickly mended together before the Elders could pry open further.

Huo Han grinned with delight. "You really don't want to consider my suggestion, Qianxue?"

Yun Qianxue didn't bother to reply to him. Her eyes fixated on the barrier attentively and sent a sound transmission to Yun Ruanyu beside her. "How long do we have to wait, Sister Ruanyu?"

Yun Ruanyu replied, "Five minutes. Sister Lingwei is about to succeed."

Yun Qianxue said nothing further. A glint of killing intent flashed across her eyes while gripping the Misty Cloud Divine Sword tightly. If it wasn't because of the plan, she would jump out to kill all of them by now.
