Myth Beyond Heaven



The Shen Clan members glanced at each other in dismay. Especially the low-rank members who had no idea about Wu Qingcheng's identity. How did she suddenly become a granddaughter of Shen Huang?

Technically, Wu Qingcheng was qualified to compete for the true heir position if she was proven to be Shen Huang's granddaughter. The problem was, what kind of achievement she had? 

Everyone's gaze landed on Shen Huang, waiting for his response. 

Shen Yan recovered from the initial shock and said angrily. "How could you do this to me!?"

Yun Lintian glanced at her and replied in a flat tone. "Had you asked me sincerely, it wouldn't be a problem for me to help you. It would also be fine if you wanted to drag me into this muddy water… But you chose to touch my Fourth Sister instead. Tell me. What should I do? Obediently becomes your dog after all of this?"

Shen Yan opened her mouth, and no word came out in the end. She knew exceptionally well in her heart that she was the last person who should ask Yun Lintian such a stupid question, but she got carried away by the anger. 

"And why should I help you to win the position when I can have my Fourth Sister take it?" Yun Lintian asked further.

Shen Yan's face turned pale. She clenched her fists tightly while staring at Yun Lintian and Wu Qingcheng unwillingly.

"Alas…" On the stand, Xu Chang looked at his young miss with a touch of pity. From the beginning, he had warned her about the consequence of scheming against Yun Lintian, but Shen Yan was too confident in herself that everything was in her control.

How could the Beyond Heaven King's successor be easily manipulated?

At this moment, Shen Yin suddenly chimed in. "Are you the Beyond Heaven King's successor, Yun Lintian?"

"What!?" 

The crowd gasped in shock upon hearing this. The way they looked at Yun Lintian changed entirely because of this. Yun Lintian was the reason they came to this place, and now he was in front of them. It would be a lie if they had zero idea about him.

Yun Lintian slowly turned to look at Shen Yin. "I am… Why? Do you want to capture me? What are you waiting for, then?"

His gaze was calm, but Shen Yin somehow felt a chill running down his spine.

Shen Yin took a deep breath, suppressing the uneasiness in his heart as he replied. "No, no. You're misunderstanding me. I'm merely asking for confirmation."

He paused briefly and continued. "I do not question her qualification, but since the first phase has done, I'm afraid it's too late now. Moreover, she doesn't even manage anything in the past hundred years. Her achievement should be zero, right?"

Yun Lintian suddenly revealed a faint smile as he said. "You're wrong. Her achievement is better than any of you here."I think you should take a look at

Shen Yin frowned and asked in doubt. "Is it? What do you mean?"

Yun Lintian pointed at himself and said. "It's because she invested in me, and I am alone worth more than anything you have earned so far."

Silence descended once again. Shen Yin and the other clan members stared at Yun Lintian blankly. They couldn't believe their ears. What did he just say? He alone was better than anything they had earned?... What a ridiculous statement!

Wu Qingcheng curled her lips and said. "Look at the people outside. Which one of them doesn't come here for my junior brother? It has proven that his value is higher than the three of you combined."

"Patriarch…" Shen Yimu couldn't help looking at Shen Feng, asking him for an opinion. He didn't expect "an illegitimate daughter" of Shen Yifei would choose to do this. Had she gone mad or something?

Shen Feng didn't say anything and calmly looked at the scene folded.

"Are you going to let them go on like this, Brother Shen? I'm afraid your prestige will be damaged because of this," Shan Mujin asked with a faint smile. He naturally knew the existence of Wu Qingcheng through his daughter-in-law. 

Decades ago, Shen Yifei used every means to get into the Azure World in order to find the Beyond Heaven King's legacy. However, she then discovered his legacy wasn't something she could obtain by herself. Hence, she decided to deploy another plan—she found a man to give birth to her child and let the child monitor the Beyond Heaven King's successor for her.

It could be said this was a huge investment she made in her life so far.

Wu Qingcheng and Wu Liwei didn't disappoint her at all. They indeed came to find her in the end. It was just that Shen Yifei didn't want to make her husband, Shan Jinhao, angry. She deliberately pushed the father and daughter away and secretly retrieved the news about Yun Lintian from them.

Fortunately, Shen Yan stepped in and came up with a plan to subdue Yun Lintian. Shen Yifei simply paved the way for her and waited for Yun Lintian to appear… And here he came.

Shen Huang glanced at Wu Qingcheng and said. "You have our Shen Clan's blood in your body. You're qualified to compete for it. And your investment in him is indeed priceless."

"However," Shen Huang's voice grew deeper as he continued. "Whether he could bring benefits to my clan is in doubt. Don't forget that the Shen Clan remains neutral in the Divine Realm. His identity may bring in trouble."

"Remains neutral?" Wu Qingcheng laughed gently. "Since when you're concerned about this? As far as I know, the Shen Clan has never taken this so-called neutral position seriously. In order to make profits, all of you will interfere with the local forces without holding back. And don't tell me that it's not true. You can pick anyone here and ask about it."

"Moreover, aren't you teaching everyone that anything else is not important in front of benefits? Why did you suddenly care about my junior brother's identity and the trouble he could possibly bring in when you know extremely well what he could do?"

The Shen Clan members glanced at each other without a word. Wu Qingcheng's words were not wrong. Everyone here must have done it one or two times in their life. It was just those local forces were too weak to go against the behemoth Mystic Auction House that no one dared to blow the matter up.

Yun Lintian raised his head to look at Shen Huang and said. "Actually, I'm not asking you for an opinion. Whether you agree with me or not, it doesn't matter because all of you have no choice."
