Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 2153 Sun Legion

Yun Lintian nodded slowly. He, in fact, could bring the two out through the Land of Beyond Heaven, but he decided not to mention it. It wasn't a matter of trust; rather, he was worried about unforeseen consequences.

"Senior," Yun Lintian asked with a serious expression, "would this put Qingxuan in a dangerous situation? I might be overprotective, but I don't want her to be used as a pawn."

Shi Xuan bristled, his nostrils flaring. "Pawn? Qingxuan is family! My brother intends to guide her, not use her. Those buffoons of the Dragon Clan have twisted his legacy for far too long. It's time things were rectified."

"Besides," Shi Xuan spoke further, "everything depends on her decision. If she chooses to do nothing, I will respect her choice. Those people will die sooner or later anyway."

Yun Lintian was relieved to hear this. He had been afraid Shi Xuan would force Long Qingxuan to reclaim the Dragon God Clan against her will.

BOOM!!

A deafening explosion erupted suddenly, sending tremors coursing through the entire space.

Tian He and Shi Xuan glanced calmly in the direction of the sound, while Yun Lintian furrowed his brow in concern.

"This aura..." Tian He narrowed his eyes slightly. "It's the War God Zhan You."

"Heh," Shi Xuan scoffed disdainfully. "Don't tell me you suffered at his hands?"

"We fought once," Tian He responded calmly, sparing the details.

"Why not bring him over?" Shi Xuan suggested with a smile.

Tian He shook his head and took a silent sip of wine.

"Who is he, Seniors?" Yun Lintian inquired curiously.

"He was one of the strongest True Gods in the Primordial Era," Shi Xuan replied with contempt. "The Sun God's number one henchman. He claimed to be unrivaled, but in truth, he always avoided truly strong opponents."

"Don't underestimate him," Tian He said gently. "Presently, there are only a handful of people who could be his match."

"What's wrong? He's nothing to me," Shi Xuan curled his lips dismissively. "But truly, I didn't expect him here. Perhaps he seeks to revive the Sun Generals."

"The Sun Generals?" Yun Lintian inquired, curiosity piqued.

"The Primordial Sun God was also known as a War God," Shi Xuan explained patiently, a hint of contempt lingering in his voice.

"He reveled in waging war on those devils during his downtime. His army, the Sun Legion, was considered the strongest then. Zhan You was among the Sun Generals."

"As far as I'm aware, Zhan You was the sole survivor of the Primordial War. Perhaps he desires to resurrect the mighty Sun Legion."

Yun Lintian nodded slowly. "What about the inheritors of the Sun God? Did they also intend to revive the Sun Legion?"

Shi Xuan didn't answer but looked at Tian He.

Tian He took a sip of wine and spoke. "They all died at Zhan You's hands."

Yun Lintian's eyes widened in shock. "Wouldn't that mean the Sun God's inheritance fell into his hands?"

He suddenly thought of Yang Chen, Master Bai, and Ouyang Feng. He hoped they wouldn't encounter a trap Zhan You had laid.

Tian He shook his head. "You've underestimated the Primordial Gods' inheritance. It isn't something Zhan You can control. At most, he might know when the next inheritor appears."

Yun Lintian frowned deeply. Zhan You was clearly another major problem. It was impossible for him to fight both Si Junyi and Zhan You simultaneously. What should he do?

The more he pondered, the more helpless he felt. His father's words about the God Tomb being an unavoidable trap seemed all too accurate now.

The opponents here were all far beyond his reach, but he couldn't simply ignore them. Even if he couldn't stop them, he at least had to try. It was indeed an inescapable trap.

"Just try your best," Tian He said gently, seeing through Yun Lintian's worries. "No one expects you to win every battle. There's no need to pressure yourself."

"Of course, it's better to win," Shi Xuan chuckled.

Their kind words soothed Yun Lintian's nerves. He took a deep breath and said, "Thank you, Seniors. You're right. I've been too afraid of failure."

The scene of the Hell Asura destroying the Bridge of Oblivion and releasing all the souls from the Netherworld flashed through his mind. It was likely his worst recent failure.

Since then, Yun Lintian had unconsciously shouldered more pressure. He didn't want to repeat such a failure.

Tian He placed a reassuring hand on Yun Lintian's shoulder. "The path you walk is fraught with challenges. Failure is inevitable, but what truly defines you is how you rise from it. Learn from your mistakes, refine your skills, and strive to be better."

Yun Lintian nodded, a newfound resolve flickering in his eyes. He wouldn't let fear cripple him any longer. "Thank you for your guidance during this time, Seniors. I won't disappoint you two."

"Even if you can't defeat Zhan You, you must win against the God of Death's inheritor. Your understanding of the Great Law of Death should be on par with, or even exceed, his. With the Great Law of Life at your disposal, losing to him would be a grave mistake." Shi Xuan said in a joking manner, but his eyes held a deadly seriousness.

"Understood," Yun Lintian replied solemnly.

Before this, he might not have been confident against Si Junyi. However, things were different now. While he couldn't truly assess the full extent of his current strength, he held the conviction that he wouldn't lose.

"Good. I'll wait for good news." Shi Xuan spoke, downing a whole jar of wine in one go.

Yun Lintian smiled and drained his cup. Just as he was about to ask another question, Tian He spoke first.

"I know you have many questions swirling in your mind, but this is my limit," he said.

Shi Xuan added, "He could truly die this time. Don't press him further."

"Understood," Yun Lintian responded quickly. "I apologize, Senior."

He understood. Tian He had painstakingly tried to recover his strength over the years. Now, due to him, Tian He suffered a severe injury just to reveal the hidden truths.

"It's nothing," Tian He smiled gently.

Yun Lintian retrieved the best recovery pills in his possession, including the Fruit of Immortality, and asked, "Would these help?"

"Fruit of Immortality?" Shi Xuan was surprised. "Unfortunately, it's too young. It wouldn't be effective on us."

"Thank you," Tian He said calmly as he accepted the gifts. "They are helpful. The power of the Great Law of Life has no effect on us. You don't need to exert yourself."

He gazed at the night sky and said, "It's time for you to leave."
