Myth Beyond Heaven

1852  Chess Piece

Yun Lintian thought for a moment and said. "It doesn't seem to make sense to me."

His words immediately captured everyone's attention.

Yun Lintian continued. "First of all, the rumor about the God of Death killing the Creator shouldn't exist in the first place. Although I don't know how powerful the Creator was, it should be impossible to kill him."

"Secondly, the conflicts escalated too quickly. I don't believe that they didn't try to solve it peacefully. It was as if they wanted to fight each other from the beginning."

He paused momentarily to glance at Yu Liling and then continued speaking. "Moreover, you clearly know something about the supposed mission I have to complete, yet you are unaware of the truth behind the conflicts among the primordial gods. Don't you think it's strange, Senior? So, what is my mission? Restoring the Primal Chaos?"

"They are two separate things. I don't need to know the truth behind their conflicts while I know your mission." Yu Liling explained.

"You should have noticed a pattern by now. The emergence of the inheritors of the Primordial Gods is the first sign. History will repeat itself."

"You mean... The Primordial Gods will return, and the war will continue?" Yun Yi asked.

Yu Liling sighed and said. "Very likely. As you can see, they left their legacies behind for an obvious reason."

Yun Lintian frowned even more deeply. "How am I supposed to stop them? They are the inheritors of the Primordial Gods. The gap between us is too large."

He seemed to understand the mission now. It should be none other than preventing another Primordial War.

Yu Liling looked at Yun Lintian and said. "Are you pretending to be ignorant? Your power is something that even the Primordial Gods would do everything to obtain." New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

Yun Lintian was taken aback. He knew the Beyond Heaven King's power was heaven-defying, but he didn't think it was comparable to the Primordial God's. After all, he had never witnessed the true power of Ren Yuan or Yao Huang.

"Does his power belong to any Primordial Gods?" Hongyue quickly asked.

Yu Liling shook her head. "No. I can confidently say that his power did not exist in the Primordial Era. It is brand new. In fact, I'm curious about it, too."

"The first time I saw this power was a million years ago. At that time, a man named Yun Tian came to this forsaken land, and I accidentally witnessed his power."

"The strangest thing about him was that he seemed under the curse. Every time he died, he would undergo reincarnation and return. He was the one who informed me about the mission."

"Unfortunately, despite his efforts, he ended up failing every time. He decided to pass down his legacy because of this."

"However, Yun Tian's appearance gave me a glimmer of hope. I am confident that he will successfully uncover the secret behind everything and restore the glorious era of the Primal Chaos."

Yu Liling looked at Yun Lintian and said with a hint of pity. "I believe you should have been aware of this in your heart. You are nothing but a chess piece he found... Ah. I shouldn't have said that. Forget it. It doesn't matter now."

She was carried away by her emotions and accidentally disclosed some truths.

After hearing this, Hongyue, Yun Yi, and Jin Long quickly turned to look at Yun Lintian. To their surprise, Yun Lintian was unexpectedly calm, with no emotion in his eyes.

Yun Lintian looked at them and said with a faint smile. "Why are you looking at me like that? Although I may sometimes be ignorant, I'm not that foolish."

"When the power awakened, I had already considered this possibility. There are many plots like this in the s I have read before. I wouldn't even be surprised if the Beyond Heaven King appeared one day and took over my body."

"Besides, didn't Senior Lin tell me about it not long ago? Why should I be surprised about it again?"

Hongyue and Yun Yi looked at him with complicated emotions. The more calm Yun Lintian appeared, the more uncomfortable they felt. They were certain they could not accept such a fate if they were in his position.

Meanwhile, Jin Long lowered his head and closed his eyes. He got to know Yun Lintian in a short time, but he always regarded him as a younger brother.

From Yao Huang and Lin Yitong to Yu Liling. Each of them kept confirming that Yun Lintian was a fate bearer, a pawn of destiny. As much as Jin Long didn't want to believe it, he couldn't do anything here.

"Hmph! You are a chess piece. Your whole family is a chess piece." Qingqing suddenly made a fuss. She glared at Yu Liling with dissatisfaction.

Linlin also glanced at Yu Liling with a cold expression. If she were stronger, she would have pounced on her by now.

Meanwhile, Gui Xuan licked his lips and said. "Fish... Delicious."

Yun Lintian comforted Qingqing and Linlin before turning to Yu Liling. "It doesn't matter. Whether I am a chess piece for someone, I have the right to decide for myself. I can even discard this power right now, and I feel no remorse about it at all."

Yu Liling stared at Yun Lintian for a while and said. "Not bad. I thought you would become disillusioned after learning the truth. I hope you can stay strong like this throughout the journey."

Yun Lintian changed the topic. "Since Senior has been here for a long time, do you know where the Beyond Heaven King went? And what happened back then when he ran to this place?"

"He died." Yu Liling replied calmly. "When I saw him, he was already at the end of his rope. There was also another woman next to him. They both fled to the abyss at the deepest part of this place."

"When the enemy caught up to them, he simply blew himself up, allowing the woman to jump into the abyss."

Hongyue's pupils constricted. The woman in Yu Liling's words was undoubtedly Xia Nongyue. She also didn't expect Yun Tian to sacrifice himself in the end… But how could he pass the Beyond Heaven Profound Vein to Yun Lintian if that were the case?

She set aside her doubts and asked. "Did you see someone take my soul away, Senior?"

"This is my first time meeting you. How would I know that?" Yu Liling spoke. "But there was indeed a strange woman at that time."
