Myth Beyond Heaven

"Here is Young Master Ye's room. If Young Master Ye wants something, you can contact the reception directly." Lan Shuiying said after arriving at the side-room.

Yun Lintian glanced at the spacious room and said. "Thank you, Miss Lan."

Lan Shuiying smiled faintly and said. "Young Master Ye don't have to be polite. This is what you deserve." She paused for a second and continued. "Also, please call me by my name directly."

Yun Lintian responded. "Then I'll call you Sister Lan, and you can call my name too."

Lan Shuiying said sweetly. "Alright, Brother Ye… If you don't mind, I would like to invite you for dinner. What does Brother Ye think?"

Yun Lintian thought for a moment and accepted her invitation readily. "It's good."

Lan Shuiying smiled with satisfaction and said. "Then, I'll take my leave first. I'll notify Brother Ye when the time comes."

"Understood." Yun Lintian nodded and sent Lan Shuiying away.

The first thing Yun Lintian did was to check the formation around the room. Surprisingly, he discovered the isolation formation here was actually the Saint-level one. Yun Lintian's current knowledge was not enough to modify it, but he still roughly understood the principle behind this formation. 

After carefully checking there wasn't a spy function within the formation, Yun Lintian could put his heart at ease and went to bed, preparing to practice.

Holding Profound Stone, Yun Lintian calmly absorbing profound energy within it while pondering his next move. Qi Yuanfeng's appearance was undoubtedly interrupted his original plan. Now, he could not guarantee whether he would be seen by Qi Yuanfeng when he went out to find information.

Maybe I can use this Lan Shuiying to gather information for me. Yun Lintian thought and felt it was feasible. After making a decision, Yun Lintian was immersed in the practice.

In another room, Lan Shuiying sat across Lan Ning, pouring a cup of tea for both of them while humming happily.

"Why are you in such a good mood? Did you encounter something behind my back?" Lan Ning was curious upon seeing her niece's current appearance.

Lan Shuiying laughed slightly as she replied. "Yes, Aunty Lan. I met someone."

"Oh? Who could it be?" Lan Ning was surprised slightly. How could encounter someone make Lan Shuiying become a good mood? Besides, she shouldn't know anyone here.

Lan Shuiying smiled mysteriously. "Why don't you guess, Aunty Lan?"

Lan Ning chuckled. "You girl. Don't tease Aunty anymore. Just tell me already."

Lan Shuiying didn't continue to hide further. "It's the young man who helped us back then. His name is Ye Xiu. He is staying in the side room right now."

Lan Ning's brows raised in surprise. "How is him?"

Lan Shuiying thought briefly and replied. "He's not a bad person overall. He has a good manner, just like a well-cultivated young master from a top clan. During our interaction, he never relaxed his guard in the slightest. It seems he is extremely cautious when he does things. Despite that, I can see he is extremely confident in himself. Otherwise, he wouldn't easily accept my invitation like this. After all, his strength isn't that high."

Lan Ning nodded her head in satisfaction. She was proud of her niece. Lan Shuiying was only sixteen this year, but she was more mature than her peers. Whether it was her ability to judge or deal with people, all of them were considered high.

"Since you've already figured out. What do you want to do further?" Lan Ning asked.

"I think he's worthy of befriending with." Lan Shuiying replied. "Just as Aunty Lan said before. He could travel alone from the Sky Fall Nation, which has proven that he is not ordinary. Couple with his mannerism, I believe he is different from those trashes in the Imperial City. I don't see why we shouldn't befriend him."

Lan Ning smiled faintly. "Don't you think he is deceiving you?"

Lan Shuiying shook her head. "I don't think so."

"Why are you so confident? You just met him today, after all." Lan Ning asked further.

"It's intuition." Lan Shuiying didn't know how to answer, but she trusted her intuition. She believed Yun Lintian wasn't a bad person and definitely became a great figure in the future.

Lan Ning shook her head slightly, but she didn't blame Lan Shuiying on this. Her niece's judgment ability might be good, but she was still inexperienced. During the time in the Blue Sea Imperial City, Lan Shuiying never dealt with anyone who had a deep mind before. At most, she had dealt with some elders within the clan.

From Lan Ning's analysis, she felt Yun Lintian was a person who had a deep mind. One thing that she agreed with Lan Shuiying was Yun Lintian wasn't a bad person. If so, he would try to take advantage of them as much as he could by now.

Seeing her aunt shook her head, Lan Shuiying pouted and said. "If you don't believe me, you can check on him by yourself. I've invited him for dinner."

Lan Ning laughed. "Fine. I believe you." She then shifted her gaze toward Yun Lintian's room with a thoughtful expression.

"Haaa…" Yun Lintian let out a long breath after completely absorbed profound energy within the Profound Stone in his hand that was now turned into a pile of dust.

Yun Lintian could feel he would soon make another breakthrough with another two or three Profound Stones. However, he didn't want to rush it because he wanted to consolidate his foundation first.

The so-called consolidating foundation was nothing but to familiarize with the newly gained power after breaking through. If the strength of profound practitioners rose too fast, it could lead them to an unstable foundation as they couldn't use their newly gained power properly. It might hurt their bodies by unknowingly overdrawing their power.

More explanation about this matter. It was similar to a magician in a role-playing game trying to use the spell that required more mana points than the magician's maximum mana points. Of course, the magician probably couldn't activate the spell because it was locked by the game. 

However, there wasn't such a restriction in reality. The profound practitioner who wasn't familiar with their current strength might mistakenly execute a profound technique that was surpassed their own power by miles and hurt themselves in the end.
