Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 494 - Rain Village



While Yun Lintian was thinking, black clouds gradually gathered in the sky, accompanied by blowing wind, seemingly raining soon.

Yun Lintian was surprised and raised his head to look at the sky. The speed of the clouds was usually fast, nothing like a natural phenomenon.

"Oh no. We need to go back now." The woman with the mole exclaimed upon seeing this scene. She hurriedly grabbed a bamboo basket and pulled her sister, preparing to leave.

She looked at Yun Lintian hesitantly and asked cautiously. "Uhm… This brother, do you want to go back with us? I would like to repay your kindness."

Yun Lintian nodded his head without thinking. He had no idea where he was currently, anyway. It was better to follow them.

The woman with the mole smiled. "Please follow us."

At this moment, her younger sister tugged her sleeve and looked at the python's remains as though she wanted to take them away. However, she didn't dare to say it as it belonged to Yun Lintian.

The woman with the mole was embarrassed and did not know what to say at the moment. Judging from Yun Lintian's stance, he didn't seem to want them at all.

Yun Lintian saw through their thoughts and smiled. "I'll give them to you. They are useless for me, anyway… Let me help you."

Afterward, he waved his hand, and the python's remains were separated instantly, transforming into a bunch of material neatly lying on the ground. Yun Lintian took out some ropes, tied all the materials tightly, and said. "Let's go. I'll help you carry them."

The two women were fascinated by Yun Lintian's neat operation. When they regained their sense, they hurriedly bowed down and said sincerely. "Thank you, Brother Mu."

Yun Lintian waved his hand dismissively and picked all the materials up. "Lead the way."

The woman with the mole nodded and quickly led him toward Rain Village.

Along the way, Yun Lintian had learned these two women. They were blood-related siblings. The woman with the mole was Yu Xiaoya, and her younger sister was Yu Xiaolu. Their father was the Rain Village's head. This time, they came out to pick some herbs and dropped by this place to clean themselves.

What surprised Yun Lintian was that the strongest person in the Rain Village actually possessed strength at the peak of the Spirit Profound Realm. It was hard to imagine how they could survive in this place.

After walking for five minutes, Yun Lintian and Yu's siblings arrived at a simple village surrounded by wooden fences. There were roughly fifty households in this place. All the houses were built with ordinary woods. One thing in common among these houses was extended eaves, specially designed for rain.

Drip….

As they passed through the village's entrance, droplets of water gradually fell down and transformed into heavy downpours in the next breath. 

Yu Xiaoya hurriedly brought Yun Lintian to her house, located in the innermost area of the village. This house was considered a large courtyard with a simple garden and a tall ginkgo tree on the side.

"Father, Mother, I'm back." Yu Xiaoya opened the door and shouted. She put the bamboo basket on a small table by the door and turned to Yun Lintian. "Please wait for a moment, Brother Mu. I'll prepare hot water for you."

Yun Lintian shook his head with a smile and said. "No need. I can simply do this." Following that, he released his profound energy to dry himself and Yu's siblings. 

Yu Xiaoya and Yu Xiaolu were slightly surprised and looked at Yun Lintian in amazement. They never knew that profound energy could be used in this way.

Looking at their expressions, Yun Lintian was even more puzzled. This village must be located at an extremely remote place on the continent. Otherwise, they wouldn't be surprised to see this common operation.

"You don't know how to do this?" Yun Lintian asked.

Yu Xiaoya and Yu Xiaolu shook their heads vigorously.

Yun Lintian explained. "When you reach the Essence Profound Realm, you can mobilize your profound energy to heat the air around you and control it to dry yourself."

The expressions of Yu's siblings turned bright and slowly dimmed again. Yu Xiaolu lowered her head and said sadly. "We are not talented enough. I don't think we can break through to the Essence Profound Realm in our lifetimes."

"That's not true." Yun Lintian said. "Your problem isn't about talent but profound art. If you could get a hand on a proper profound art, achieving the Essence Profound Realm, or even the Spirit Profound Realm, is not difficult at all."

"Really?" Yu Xiaolu raised her head to look at Yun Lintian with hope.

"Of course, it's true." Yun Lintian replied with a smile. He pretended to rummage through his inner clothes and took a book out before handing it to Yu Xiaolu. "This is a high-grade mortal rank profound art called Blue Spring Art. It's suitable for both of your Profound Veins."

"This…" Yu Xiaolu was shocked. She didn't expect Yun Lintian to give away a profound art like this. She turned to Yu Xiaoya, waiting for her opinion.

Yu Xiaoya's expression became serious. She stared into Yun Lintian's eyes and said firmly. "Thank you for your kindness, Brother Mu. However, we cannot accept this precious profound art. We haven't repaid the life-saving grace yet, and this is too much for us."

Just as Yun Lintian was about to say something, a middle-aged man in a plain grey robe appeared in the hallway. His sharp gaze swept over Yun Lintian briefly, and his face immediately turned solemn.

"I don't know why Senior comes to our humble village?" The middle-aged man said calmly.

Before Yun Lintian could reply, Yu Xiaoya hurriedly explained. "Father, this is Brother Mu Chen. He saved us from the beast earlier. You can look at the materials in his hands." Seeing her father glancing over the bunch of python's materials, she said further. "I brought him here to repay his kindness. Please do not misunderstand him."

Yun Lintian took this chance to introduce himself. "Hello, uncle. My name is Mu Chen. I happened to see this python try to attack them as I passed by. I know it's difficult to trust me, but I really have no malicious intent.. I just want to ask for direction."
