Myth Beyond Heaven-Chapter 73 - Coincidence

"Y… you!" Wu Zuo was paled in fright. He knew what Yun Lintian going to do by imitating his voice was. Without a doubt, he had no chance to live further.

Yun Lintian nodded his head in satisfaction and smiled at Wu Zuo, "Alright, you can go now." Following that, he swiftly cut Wu Zuo's throat with the small knife in his hand.

"Ugh…" Wu Zuo struggled to cover the wound on his neck, but it was futile as his lifeforce gradually left his body. His bloodshot eyes stared at Yun Lintian with fear, horror, and hatred until his last breath.

"What a mess." Yun Lintian looked at the bloodstain on his clothes and said with annoyance. He then took the transmission jade out of Wu Zuo's shoe and stored it away.

Yun Lintian didn't plan to meddle with the Wang clan's business, but it was no harm taking this. In case he could get some information in the near future.

Yun Qianxue stared at Yun Lintian without blinking. Although voice imitation wasn't something out of the ordinary, the way Yun Lintian did it was too strange. He hadn't used any profound technique at all.

Yun Lintian turned to her and was confused. He didn't understand why did Yun Qianxue look at him with that expression.

"What's wrong?" Yun Lintian asked. As far as he knew, voice imitation should be something ordinary. Yun Qianxue shouldn't be surprised by this, right?

"How did you do that?" Yun Qianxue asked back.

"You mean the voice imitation? Well, it's related to my past." Yun Lintian replied vaguely, as though he was unwilling to go through the detail.

Yun Lintian said nothing on this matter further, as she was aware of it. She changed the topic. "What are we going to do now? Are you going to involve with this?"

Yun Lintian shook his head. "I'm not going to meddle with whatever conspiracy behind it. I just prepare for it. In case we encounter the Wang clan in the future." He paused briefly and continued, "I think this Wang clan is trying to overthrow the Tian royal clan. They're probably want to cut the food supply within the Imperial City. Coincidently… Well, maybe it's their deeds as well. This poison incident occurred very timely."

Yun Qianxue followed, "You mean, this Wang clan wants to starve citizens to death and put the pressure on the Tian royal clan? At the same time, they can make a huge profit. Everyone will flock to them for food."

Yun Lintian smiled. "That's right. Not to mention Wang clan's daughter has married into the royal clan. There's a high chance that the crown prince is the main conspirator… Anyway, it's just our guess, and this has nothing to do with us… Let's go."

Yun Lintian brought Yun Qianxue into the building. At this moment, all the captive women and children were squeezed together around a fireplace in the middle. fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

"Done?" Yun Huanxin asked when she saw both of them coming.

Yun Lintian gave the nod in reply. "How many people here?"

Yun Huanxin replied, "There are a total of sixty-three adults and twenty-two children. None of them is a practitioner."

Yun Lintian swept over all the captives and pondered what he should do with them.

Seeing Yun Lintian went silent, the captives were nervous. Suddenly, Yun Ci stood up and said nervously, "Young Master, thank you for helping us. I… I don't know if Young Master has a plan for us?"

Everyone looked at Yun Lintian nervously. They knew if he wanted to do anything to them, they had no power to resist. They could only hope Yun Lintian will let them go.

Yun Lintian looked at Yun Ci with surprise. She was brave enough to ask him the question, showing she didn't fear death.

Yun Huanxin didn't tell him about Yun Ci's incident earlier. Otherwise, Yun Lintian would doubt if she was brave or stupid.

He asked, "What is your name?"

Yun Ci's tense body became relaxed. It seemed Yun Lintian wasn't a bad person. She replied, "My name is Yun Ci from Clear River village."

"Surname Yun?" Yun Lintian was surprised slightly. He didn't expect to meet someone with the same surname as him here. He asked further, "What are you going to do next? Going back to your village?"

Yun Ci shook her head sadly, "There's no village anymore."

"Oh, sorry to hear that." Yun Lintian said apologetically. Thinking about it again, it was impossible for Wu Zuo and his gang to leave the villagers alive.

"What about all of you?" Yun Lintian looked at other captives.

"I… I don't know." One of the captive women said and started sobbing. Everyone in her family was killed by Wu Zuo already. She didn't know what to do with her life from now on.

One by one expressed the exact words. They simply had no idea what to do further. f𝘳ℯℯ𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oν𝑒Ɩ.c𝑜𝙢

Seeing this, Yun Lintian gave an idea. "How about this? I am currently heading to Green Leaf Town. If all of you didn't mind, you could live in the town afterward. Of course, I will give the money to you. There should be a lot of money left behind by the bandits."

"I know where to find it." Suddenly a plump woman raised her hand. She was the one who interacted with the bandits.

Yun Lintian nodded and asked everyone again, "How about it?"

Yun Ci hesitated and pulled her daughter closer. She looked at Yun Lintian and thinking of something.

At this moment, Yun Qianxue walked toward Yun Ci and stared at her face for a while before she asked, "May I know, what's your mother's name?"

Yun Ci looked at Yun Qianxue confusedly and could not see her expression underneath the veil. She answered truthfully, "My mother's name is Yun Xilou."

Hearing Yun Ci's answer, Yun Qianxue's expression underneath the veil abruptly changed into shock.

"Yun Xilou… Don't tell me… No wonder I find her face familiar." Yun Huanxin muttered while staring at Yun Ci's face in astonishment.

Yun Qianxue took a deep breath and asked, "Your father is Mu Weizhi, right?"

Yun Ci's eyes widened open, "Senior, you know my parents?"

Yun Qianxue was silent for a moment before she replied, "Yes, I know them… I know them very well."
