Myth Beyond Heaven

"Who are you talking to, husband?" Yue Xiurong asked curiously as she walked over. Her gaze landed on Lin Zixuan, and her eyes widened in shock. "Sister-in-law?"

"It's me." Lin Zixuan said with teary eyes.

Lin Zixun trembled slightly and quickly stepped forward. He grabbed Lin Zixuan's shoulders and said shakily. "It's really you, big sister."

Lin Zixuan looked at her long-lost younger brother with a warm smile. "It's good that both of you are fine."

"How could anything have happened to us?" Lin Zixun said.

Yue Xiurong couldn't help but ask. "How did you come here, sister-in-law? And where is she...? Did she come with you?"

Seeing their expectant expressions, Lin Zixuan smiled and replied. "She is here. Maybe she will come to see both of you in a while."

Yue Xiurong and Lin Zixun glanced at each other, filled with excitement. They also felt nervous upon learning the news. The two of them had abandoned their daughter and were unsure if Lin Xinyao harbored any resentment towards them.

As if she saw through their worries, Lin Zixuan said gently. "Don't worry. Xinyao is not angry with you two. On the contrary, she understood your helplessness very well."

Yue Xiurong patted her chest in relief and said. "Please come in first, sister-in-law."

Lin Zixuan nodded gently and was about to follow Yue Xiurong into the hut. At that moment, Yun Lintian and Lin Xinyao flew over and landed not far away from them.

Yue Xiurong and Lin Zixun were stunned on the spot, unable to take their eyes off Lin Xinyao, not even for a moment.

Lin Xinyao looked at the two with mixed emotions.

Yun Lintian held her hand and spoke softly. "We greet our father and mother."

Lin Zixun came back to his senses and said tremblingly. "W-Welcome back."

Lin Xinyao took a deep breath and lowered her head. "Father, mother."

Lin Zixun and Yue Xiurong shuddered upon hearing this. They didn't expect Lin Xinyao to be willing to call them like this.

Yue Xiurong couldn't hold it any longer. She rushed forward and lifted her daughter with both arms. Her voice was sobbing the moment she had started to speak. "Thank you for forgiving us. For the past few years, Mother has been feeling guilty towards you..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Lin Xinyao interrupted her with a smile. "No need to say anything, Mother. I fully understand everything. You did it for my own good. It should have been me who is guilty of causing you to lose your status."

Yue Xiurong wiped away her tears and shook her head. "It's not your fault. It was my decision to give birth to you despite knowing the consequences."

Lin Zixuan nudged her younger brother and motioned with her chin.

Lin Zixun regained his composure and said. "It's my fault. Both of you don't have to blame yourselves."

Lin Zixuan shook her head and said. "Alright, alright. Now that all of you have finally reunited, there's no need to dwell on this matter any longer."

"Yes, yes." Lin Zixun hurriedly spoke. "Let go in first."

With that, everyone walked into the hut.

When everyone sat down, Yue Xiurong gently gazed at the jade-shaped symbol on the center of Lin Xinyao's forehead and spoke. "It's been a long time, Mumu."

Buzz—

Suddenly, the symbol shone brightly, revealing the silhouette of a white rabbit. It was none other than Mumu.

Mumu landed on Lin Xinyao's shoulder and looked at her former partner with a smile. "You are looking fine."

Yue Xiurong smiled gently, without saying a word. Since she inherited the title of the Moon Princess, Mumu had naturally become her contracted partner. They had a deep connection after being together for thousands of years.

Unfortunately, when Yue Xiurong decided to give birth to Lin Xinyao, the contract between them was collapsed and Mumu's power had been sealed ever since. Now, Mumu had become Lin Xinyao's partner, and her power gradually recovered in accordance with her master's strength. 

As long as Lin Xinyao reached the peak of the Divine Emperor Realm, Mumu would completely regain her power by then.

A week passed quickly. Yun Lintian spent most of his time with his women and friends during this period and was ready to leave.

At the same time, he took this chance to learn about the Neverending Burning Hell's situation. According to Yue Hua, the place was full of practitioners who had committed hideous crimes and were wanted by top factions in the Divine Realm. Without a doubt, it would be no different from entering a bandit's den.

"I want to go with you." Nantian Fengyu said angrily. "Didn't you tell me that you would bring me along? Hmph! Liar!"

Yun Lintian was now having a headache. After learning about the situation, he didn't want to bring Nantian Fengyu along, but she refused to give up.

"I will take you to the Death Sea later." Yun Lintian tried to persuade her.

"No! I don't believe you anymore. Hmph! Bad junior brother!" Nantian Fengyu pouted angrily.

"You are too weak. We don't have time to take care of you." Yue Chuntao said with a frown.

"So what? I can take care of myself." Nantian Fengyu retorted.

"How about receiving my punch? As long as you can withstand it, you can come with us." Yue Chuntao asked provocatively.

"Bring it on!" Nantian Fengyu snorted, and her entire body was ignited with phoenix flames.

"Don't cry later." Yue Chuntao smirked and prepared to attack.

Yun Lintian quickly stopped them. "Alright, alright. Stop it."

He turned to Nantian Fengyu and said with a serious expression. "You can come with us, Fifth Sister. But you have to stick with me all the time. Understand?"

"Sure!" Nantian Fengyu retracted her flames and responded readily.

Yue Chuntao frowned in dissatisfaction. "I won't take care of her."

"Did I ask you to take care of me?" Nantian Fengyu retorted angrily.

"Hmph!" Yue Chuntao snorted and walked onto the profound ark, unbothered to argue with the little girl any further.

"Take care of yourself." Yun Qianxue said softly.

Yun Lintian nodded and said. "I will come back as soon as possible."

"Have a safe trip, Big Brother Yun." Ning Yue said with reluctance on her face. She wished she could go with him but knew it was impossible.

Yun Lintian patted her head gently and spoke. "Practice well."

"Mhm." Ning Yue responded obediently.

"I'm leaving." Yun Lintian looked at everyone before jumping onto the profound ark with Linlin, Qingqing, and Nantian Fengyu.

He waved his hand to everyone and drove the profound ark away.

"We have to work hard so that we can accompany him in the future." Han Bingling reluctantly shifted her gaze away from the disappearing profound ark.

The women glanced at each other and walked towards their residences. Without having to worry about the sect's affairs, everyone could finally dedicate themselves to training.

After leaving the Moon God Realm, Yun Lintian steered the profound ark towards the north at full speed. Fortunately, the Moon God Realm was located in the eastern part of the Central Divine Region, so it wouldn't take him too long to reach the destination.

"Hmm?" Yun Lintian frowned slightly when he noticed the dark aura in the starry sky. It was thicker than what he had seen in the last week. What was going on?

Yue Chuntao noticed Yun Lintian's expression and made up a lie. "There were some devils wandering around the Eastern Divine Region lately. Their goal seemed to be the Sea of Stars. They wanted to know where it went."

"Really?" Yun Lintian found it strange but couldn't refute it…
