Myth Beyond Heaven Chapter 1191 Xing Chen’s Resolve

“Where did he go?” Lan Cao said in doubt. Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu had just disappeared from the formation without a trace. This was something he didn’t understand.

“He has many secrets within his body. It’s not something to be surprised by.” Xing Chen said while calmly sipping the tea.

He glanced at the book thoughtfully. “Have you ever thought about why Yun Lintian comes here?”

Lan Cao frowned slightly and replied. “According to the investigation, he always walked through the mythical realms, and whenever he left, the mythical realms would disappear.”

He paused briefly and said in doubt. “Could it be he knows the secrets of those mythical realms?”

Xing Chen said calmly. “Definitely. It’s like these mythical realms are made for him.”

He raised his head slightly and said further. “Honestly. Compared to killing him, I’m more interested in the mystery of this place. Although I don’t know what kind of secret is hiding in this place, it’s definitely something that can change one’s fate forever.”

Lan Cao’s expression changed slightly. “This place is too dangerous, and this map only reveals the first floor. I don’t think it’s a good idea to go deeper.”

Xing Chen glanced at him and asked with a faint smile. “Afraid?”

Seeing Lan Cao go silent, Xing Chen said further. “The higher level one reaches, the more afraid one becomes. What’s the point of walking in the profound path?”

Lan Cao took a deep look at this young man upon hearing this. At first, he thought Xing Chen was an ordinary young master, but after getting along with him for a few years, he knew how deep and resourceful this person’s mind was. It could be said Xing Tengfei might not be as talented as him.

The only downside of Xing Chen was that his talent on the profound path wasn’t good. If it wasn’t because he was born in the Star Gazing Palace, he might not be able to reach the Monarch Profound Realm for the rest of his life.

“My life is in your grandfather’s hands. I have long forgotten the fear of death.” Lan Cao said in a deep voice. “However, my duty is to keep you alive. I don’t want you to take any risk.”

“Keep me alive?” Xing Chen curled his lips. “Let me ask you something. With Yun Lintian’s current strength, do you think we can fight him?”

Lan Cao opened his mouth, and no words came out in the end. The last time, he could severely injure Yun Lintian because he caught him off-guard. Otherwise, with Yun Lintian’s ability to escape as he displayed earlier, it was impossible for him to do it.

What was more? From the last time they met, Yun Lintian’s strength had improved by leaps and bounds. It was uncertain whether he could be Yun Lintian’s opponent.

“I don’t understand.” Lan Cao took a deep look at Xing Chen. “Since you know that we’re not his opponent, why would you choose to come here? According to my understanding of you, you’re not someone who likes to rely on external things like the traps in this place.”

Hearing this, Xing Chen smiled and said. “Because I never think of going back.”

Lan Cao’s pupils shrank as he looked at Xing Chen in astonishment. “You…”

Xing Chen took a sip of tea and said. “To you, I might be young. But to me, I have lived long enough.”

“In this world where the strong rules everything, my strength alone cannot make me to the top. Even if I have a chance to ascend to the Divine Realm, I will end up at the bottom. I have everything today because I am lucky enough to be born in the Star Gazing Palace.”

A splendid light flashed through Xing Chen’s eyes as he said further. “The moment I discovered Yun Lintian, I realized that a son of heaven does exist. Competing with such a person, you will definitely end up losing.”𝒩ew updates 𝒂t n𝒐velbi𝒏(.)com

“However,” Xing Chen stared straight into Lan Cao’s eyes and said. “I don’t think that he’s invincible. On the contrary, his existence gives me an idea of what would happen if I steal his chance?”

“You mean…?” Lan Cao’s brows knitted together.

Xing Chen nodded with a smile. “It’s either me or him who is going to die here. If I win, everything he has will belong to me, but if I lose… Well, I will become his steppingstone. That’s it.”

He chuckled and asked. “Don’t you think this is a good bet?”

Lan Cao looked at the young man in front of him with admiration in his heart. He had to admit that he wasn’t brave enough to gamble like Xing Chen.

He took a deep breath and said. “Let me accompany you to the end. Anyway, my life isn’t mine, to begin with.”

Xing Chen smiled and said. “It’s my pleasure to work with you, Senior Lan.”

Lan Cao shook his head. “It should be my honor instead.”

The two looked at each other for a while and laughed.

“Well, let’s not flattering each other further. We have finished everything here. It’s time for us to try our luck.” Xing Chen put the teacup down and got up. “If he could pass every trap we prepared for him, we would eventually meet him later.”

Lan Cao nodded and got up, following Xing Chen into a dark passage not far away.

“Ugh…” Floating in the Soul Lake, Yun Lintian slowly opened his eyes in a daze. There was still a pain in his head, but it was more lighter than before.

“How are you, My King?” Lauya retracted her hand and asked concernedly.

Yun Lintian slowly tilted his head and said. “I’m fine now… How long did I pass out?”

“Four days,” Lauya replied.

“Four days…?” Yun Lintian was slightly stunned. He then looked at Nantian Fengyu, who was slowly opening her eyes and asked. “Are you okay, Fifth Sister?”

Nantian Fengyu glanced around in a daze and asked. “Where are we now? …Are we in a paradise?”

The breathtaking scenery in this place made her feel unreal. If they were not dead, how could they appear here?
