Myth Beyond Heaven

"Two months ago… Poison in the snow?" Yun Lintian touched his chin and pondered for a moment before he asked further, "How did you know it happen throughout the entire nation?… You have a backer, right?"

Wu Zuo swallowed hard. He wanted to slap himself for slipping his tongue. He took a deep breath and glared at Yun Lintian fearlessly. "Now you understood? My backer is not ordinary. I advise you to let me go immediately."

Yun Lintian was speechless. He often complained about an author of those novels for making a stupid villain character. Now he encountered one by himself and did not know what to say for a moment.

Seeing Yun Lintian went silent, Wu Zuo thought he was scared and pretended to force, "You should run away before my backer arrives here. Otherwise…" He swept over Yun Qianxue and Yun Huanxin with an evil grin.

Smack!

Yun Lintian ruthlessly slapped Wu Zuo's face and said, "Are you stupid? When your backer comes, I would be long gone by then. Even I kill you here, they won't be able to find a single clue."

"You!" Wu Zuo roared angrily. He felt humiliated but powerless to fight back.

"Are you going to tell me or not? I don't want to waste my time here." Yun Lintian crossed his arms and asked.

"No!" Wu Zuo stubbornly refused to answer. However, he immediately regretted it. What was the point of acting tough when his life was in the opponent's hands?

"Very well." Yun Lintian let out a helpless sigh. He turned to Yun Huanxin and said, "Bring them into the building first. What I am going to do next is not suitable for children to see." 

Yun Huanxin nodded and led all the captive women and children into the building, leaving Yun Lintian and Yun Qianxue behind.

Yun Lintian took out a small knife and squatted down to Wu Zuo's level as he lamented, "Why are you stubborn. I'm lazy to do this."

Without warning, Yun Lintian stabbed Wu Zuo's right thigh with the small knife, causing the latter to scream in pain. Yun Lintian then slowly twisted the knife, grinding the wound on Wu Zuo's thigh.

"Ugh!" Wu Zuo groaned painfully. Without his profound strength, his body was no different from an ordinary mortal.

On the side, a strange look appeared on Yun Qianxue's face. She paid attention to Yun Lintian and discovered his heartbeat and expression were absolutely normal without the slightest fluctuation. It was as though he had been doing this for decades.

"Are you going to answer now?" Yun Lintian asked coldly.

Wu Zuo gritted his teeth, unwilling to answer. However, when he saw Yun Lintian aimed the knife at his crotch, he was scared witless and hurriedly said, "I say! I say!" 

Yun Lintian said nothing and stared at Wu Zuo coldly.

Wu Zuo took a deep breath and said, "I am a servant of the Wang clan in the Imperial City. My master is the eldest son of the current patriarch, Wang Jian. I would occasionally report the situation around this place to him. That's why I come to know about it." 

"Wang clan?" Yun Lintian took a note and asked further, "What's the purpose of sending you here?"

Wu Zuo hesitated for a moment before he answered truthfully. "He wants me to rob a merchant caravan from Green Leaf Town along the way toward the Imperial City. Of course, we didn't dare to fight head-on with those official caravans. We only need to create trouble for them from time to time."

Yun Lintian touched his chin, pondering over the matter. He did not quite understand why this Young Master Wang would do this? 

Seeing Yun Lintian fell into deep thought, Wu Zuo started to move his hand, trying to get a transmission jade within his shoe. Suddenly, he felt a chill running down his spine and saw Yun Qianxue stared at him with killing intent. At this moment, he ultimately gave up the idea. In any case, he wasn't their opponent.

Naturally, Wu Zuo's action didn't escape from Yun Lintian's eyes, but he did nothing. Instead, he asked, "Tell me about the general situation within the Imperial City."

This time, Wu Zuo didn't hesitate anymore. "Excluding the Tian royal clan, there are four influential clans in the Imperial City, namely, Wang, Ye, Qin, and Li clan. Among them, our Wang clan has the most influence in the city. Most of the food industry is in our hands. We also connect with the Tian royal clan as our Eldest Young Mistress has married the current Crown Prince."

"As for other clans, they're engaging in various businesses, but their influences are not strong as our Wang clan." Talking to this point, Wu Zuo had a proud expression on his face. Even though he was just a servant, he always treated the Wang clan as his own.

"Controlling food industry? Daughter-in-law of the Tian royal clan?" Yun Lintian seemed to figure out the conspiracy behind it, but it was just his own guess. 

He asked further, "As far as I know, the current ruler of the nation hasn't married anyone. Where is this crown prince comes from?"

Wu Zuo shook his head. "I don't know about it as well. After all, I'm just a lowly servant."

Yun Lintian nodded. He believed Wu Zuo didn't dare to hide anything from him. 

"Alright, I'm done with the question. You can leave now." Yun Lintian said.

Wu Zuo hesitated and probed, "Is it true? I can leave now?"

Yun Lintian nodded his head and then shook his head. "Well, I need you to do something first."

Wu Zuo was elated and hurriedly asked, "You can tell me, I will do it."

"Now, repeat what I said. My name is Wu Zuo. I am a lowly servant of the Wang clan. I love playing with women." Yun Lintian said with a faint smile.

Wu Zuo was puzzled. Why would Yun Lintian want to do this? It wasn't only him. Yun Qianxue was confused as well.

Wu Zuo quickly repeated what Yun Lintian had said earlier. When he finished his sentence, he looked at Yun Lintian with expectation. He couldn't wait to leave this place. 

Yun Lintian coughed slightly to adjust his voice and said, "My name is Wu Zuo. I am a lowly servant of the Wang clan. I love playing with women."

Both Yun Qianxue and Wu Zuo were instantly dumbfounded because Yun Lintian's current voice was exactly the same as Wu Zuo's!
