Myth Beyond Heaven

Gui Shen went silent for a long time and let out a sigh. "I didn't expect this."

"You didn't expect this?" Master Bai rolled his eyes. "Are you blind or something? Everyone in the world knows how blindly loyal she is."

"I didn't mean that." Gui Shen shook his head. "Before I left, I told her to find a place to hide and wait for someone with my bloodline to show up. I'm a bit surprised that she came here."

He turned to Lan Qinghe and asked respectfully. "Immortal Master. Can I ask you for a favor one last time? Please bring her here."

Lan Qinghe put the teacup down and waved her hand. The empty space on her right side distorted, revealing a dark, cold seabed.

On the outside, the Kraken discovered a spatial rift behind it. It turned around and wanted to attack the rift. However, a powerful aura suddenly leaked out and wrapped around the Kraken, restraining it on the place.

"Zhang Yu." Gui Shen's voice resounded, causing the struggling Kraken to calm down.

"M…Master?" The Kraken's voice was soft and gentle, contrasting its ferocious appearance.

"It's me." Gui Shen looked at the Kraken, Zhang Yu, with a hint of distress. "Return to your human form and come over."

Zhang Yu didn't hesitate in the slightest and transformed into a beautiful woman dressed in pink. The restraint around her body immediately vanished, allowing her to move freely.

Zhang Yu quickly rushed into the spatial rift and appeared beside the pavilion. She ignored everything and jumped into the lotus pond, running to Gui Shen.

"Master! I finally found you." Zhang Yu cried out while tears streaming down her cheeks. The longing she had accumulated for years poured out like a broken dam.

Gui Shen looked at the crying woman and sighed. "Didn't I tell you to stay away? Why did you come here?"

Zhang Yu wiped the tears off her cheeks and replied. "I didn't believe that something would happen to you. And I was right."

"Open your eyes and take a good look at him." Master Bai interjected.

"Who are you?" Zhang Yu turned to Master Bai and asked coldly.

Master Bai ignored her and said. "Look at him again."

Zhang Yu lowered her head to look at the injured Black Turtle in front of her, and her entire body froze. "This… Master, you…?"

"It's true. My residual soul can stay behind for a period of time because of the help of the Immortal Master here." Gui Shen said calmly.

"No… This is not true… I don't believe it! There must be a way, right!?" Zhang Yu shouted unwillingly.

She turned around and looked at Lan Qinghe. "You must be Immortal Master. Please help my master. I am willing to do anything."

Lan Qinghe calmly enjoyed her tea without saying anything.

"Please…" Zhang Yu was about to say something but was interrupted by Gui Shen.

"That's enough." Gui Shen spoke. "When will you learn to grow up?"

"No, Master. There must be a way." Zhang Yu was still in denial. Her entire body trembled while her eyes darted around, seemingly looking for something to save Gui Shen.

Suddenly, she noticed the Black Turtle's aura from behind. When she saw Yun Lintian's appearance, her face was immediately distorted with hatred. "Yun Tian's successor? How dare you take my Master's bloodline!?"

Her aura surged violently as she pounced towards Yun Lintian in a flash.

Gui Shen didn't expect Zhang Yu to have such a strong reaction, but it was too late for him to do anything.

Master Bai seemed to anticipate this a long time ago. He raised his wing, and a frightening aura blasted towards Zhang Yu.

"Get lost!" Zhang Yu roared as her arms transformed into tentacles, smashing into the oncoming attack.

BOOM!!

A deafening explosion occurred, causing the surrounding space to distort crazily. 

"Ugh!" Zhang Yu was sent flying and crashed into the lotus pond with a bang.

However, she didn't give up and immediately revealed her true form.

"Presumptuous!" Xiao Ju's eyes turned cold when she saw this scene. She could tolerate it when Zhang Yu made the first move, but damaging the lotus pond was unacceptable.

She raised her hand, and a green light immediately shot out, forming a light cage around the Kraken.

Gui Shen's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly stepped forward and bowed his head. "Please spare her, Senior."

Xiao Ju glanced at Gui Shen coldly. "My master is kind enough to help you. Is this how your subordinate repays her kindness?"

"Please forgive us." Gui Shen said. His posture was extremely low. It was unbelievable that the mythological beast like him lowered his stance to this point.

"Let me go! I'll kill him!" Zhang Yu roared crazily. Her eyes were full of murderous intent as she stared at Yun Lintian.

"Shut up!" Gui Shen bellowed. This was the first time he scolded Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu was stunned and regained her senses. She looked at Gui Shen with disbelief. "Master, you… why?"

"How many times did I tell you that everything was my intention?" Gui Shen spoke coldly. "I made a promise with Yun Tian on my own accord. He was not wrong. Let alone his successor, who has nothing to do with this."

Zhang Yu hated the Beyond Heaven King for taking away a part of Gui Shen's blood origin in the past, and he still had the audacity to ask Gui Shen to give all of his blood origin to his successor in the future.

If possible, she would do everything to kill his successor.

In fact, Zhang Yu was aware that Yun Lintian was innocent in this matter, but she couldn't accept it.

She looked at Gui Shen and wanted to say something. "But…" 

"Not enough?" Gui Shen stared at her. His voice was incomparably cold.

Zhang Yu shrank back and returned to her human form. Her head hung down, looking pitiful. Her master had never scolded her like this before, and she felt wronged.

"You have seen how powerful the enemies were with your own eyes, yet you still acted selfishly. Tell me. Do you want to see the entire Divine Realm fall?" Gui Shen said coldly.

"I-I didn't mean it. He's too hateful…" Zhang Yu said in a low voice.

"Kneel!" Gui Shen said harshly and threw Zhang Yu onto the shore.

Zhang Yu shuddered and hurriedly knelt on the ground.

"Listen. You must recognize him as your master." Gui Shen spoke.

"What!? No!"
