Myth Beyond Heaven

The interior of the Tang inn was a bit old, but it was spotless. The decorations reflected a cozy and warm atmosphere, even though they seemed to be there for years.

"Fang'er?" As Yun Lintian's group entered the building, a female voice suddenly resounded. The voice owner was a middle-aged woman with eighty percent resembled Tang Huifang. Her face was full of surprise when she saw Tang Huifang bring guests here.

"Mom!" Tang Huifang greeted the middle-aged woman with a bright smile and hurriedly explained. "Mom, these people are our guests today."

The middle-aged woman, Zhou Ya, quickly walked over and greeted Yun Lintian's group. "Welcome to our Tang inn. My name is Zhou Ya, the innkeeper. May I know why did you choose our place? Please forgive me for being rude, but judging from everyone's dress, I believe you could afford high-end accommodation in the town center area."

"Mom!?" Tang Huifang was shocked. She didn't expect her mother to say something like this.

Zhou Ya ignored her daughter and stared at Yun Lintian calmly, waiting for an explanation.

Yun Lintian could understand her thoughts. After so many years of unsuccessful business, she probably developed an inferior complex and found it hard to believe there would be a customer who wanted to come to this old inn.

Yun Lintian smiled and said. "I have a good impression of this little girl. Moreover, I prefer to stay in a quiet environment. After coming here, I think this place is perfect for us."

Zhou Ya went silent for a moment and said with a smile. "Understood. How many days do you want to stay here?"

"It should be a week." Yun Lintian said. "Do you provide a meal here? We're quite hungry."

"Yes, but we can only provide a simple meal here." Zhou Ya responded.

Yun Lintian nodded. "We will have one."

"Alright." Zhou Ya turned to her daughter and said. "Fang'er, you bring our guests to see the rooms first."

"Yes, mom." Tang Huifang replied with a happy smile and brought Yun Lintian to the second floor.

"These are your rooms, Sir. Please tell me directly if you want anything. I'll try my best to satisfy you." After sending Yun Lintian's group to the rooms, Tang Huifang said.

Yun Lintian looked around the room and nodded in satisfaction. Of course, the furnishings here couldn't be compared to his own, but they were enough.

"Here." Yun Lintian handed a small pouch full of gold coins to Tang Huifang.

Tang Huifang was shocked. She had never seen so many gold coins before and hurriedly said. "Sir, this is too much. It should be one gold coin for a week."

Yun Lintian smiled and stuffed the pouch into Tang Huigan's tiny hand. "Take it. I'm not bad with money. You can use this to improve the facility here, so you can attract customers in the future."

"Sir, this…" Tang Huifang was lost for a word. She couldn't understand why Yun Lintian suddenly wanted to help her. They had clearly known each other a few minutes ago.

"Take it, little sister. Brother Yun is rich. You can hire people to renovate this place later." Fan suddenly said.

Tang Huifang bit her lips, appearing tangled by Yun Lintian's kindness. In the end, she grabbed the pouch tightly and bowed her head. "Thank you, Sir. I'll remember this kindness."

"Go ahead." Yun Lintian said with a smile.

"I'll call you when the meal is ready. Have a good rest, Sir." Tang Huifang said with a serious expression and went away.

At this moment, Mu Qiuxue suddenly waved her hand, creating a sound isolating barrier, and looked at Yun Lintian silently, as if she was waiting for something.

Guchang was also the same. He looked at Yun Lintian strangely, with his arms crossed.

Seeing this scene, Fan was puzzled and asked. "Why are you staring at Brother Yun like that, father, Sister Mu?"

Guchang ignored his stupid son and asked Yun Lintian. "Shouldn't you give us an explanation, Little Brother Yun?"

"What explanation?" Yun Lintian chuckled and invited everyone to sit down before pouring tea for them.

"Although I know you're kind, I don't think you would come here because you want to help that little girl," Guchang said with a meaningful smile.

Yun Lintian leisurely sipped a tea and asked back. "Have Senior noticed something?"

Guchang thought for a moment and shook his head. "Except for her mother's strange vigilance, I can't find anything special about this place."

Meanwhile, Mu Qiuxue said. "There's something strange about Tang Huifang. She's obviously talented but didn't seem to possess any profound strength."

​ Hearing this, Yun Lintian revealed a smile and praised. "As expected from the renowned Snow Maiden Mu." He paused for a second and explained. "The moment I saw Tang Huifang, I immediately discovered a seal within her body. This seal is extremely powerful. It completely blocked her profound vein from absorbing profound energy. I believe it is a work of the Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm expert."

Guchang, Fan, and Mu Qiuxue had astonished expressions on their faces upon hearing this.

Yun Lintian said further. "The question is, why would such a powerhouse do this to her, a ten-year-old little girl? And her mother's earlier action has further confirmed there is something behind this."

Guchang and Mu Qiuxue immediately fell into deep thoughts.

Yun Lintian took a sip of tea and said. "Moreover, this place is indeed remote, but I don't think there's no one coveting this piece of land. After all, this town is really prosperous. An inch of land here is worth more than gold. How could a weak woman and a little girl survive until this day?"

He chuckled softly. "It's not that I am trying to be a busybody, but I can't help being curious about it."

"Maybe her father is powerful?" Fan expressed his thought.

Yun Lintian nodded. "It could be… But since he's that powerful, why couldn't he provide a better living standard for his wife and daughter? Why would he choose to stay here in this shabby place?"

Mu Qiuxue seemed to think of something and expressed her opinion. "Perhaps they are hiding from someone?"

Hearing this, Yun Lintian said with a smile. "Very likely."
