Myth Beyond Heaven Chapter 235 -Visit Bai Clan

“Correct.” Cai Xuwen confirmed Yun Lintian’s guess.

Yun Lintian said nothing further. Although he was full of curiosity about this Heavenly Sword, this matter was too far from him. What he needed to focus on right now was how to enter the academy and get the recommendation.

As for Wang Jun, Yun Lintian could foresee he would become his enemy if he entered the Moonlight Hall, but Yun Lintian didn’t care much about it. After all, he didn’t even know which hall he could join in the end.

“Is there any place you want to visit? I’ll bring you there.” Cai Xuwen saw that everyone went silent. She tried to change the topic.

Yun Lintian glanced at Yang Chen and saw the latter shaking his head.. He then turned to Cai Xuwen and said. “Thank you, Sister Cai. We plan to leave now.”

“Alright. If you have anything that you want to know, feel free to ask me.” Cai Xuwen responded with a smile and brought everyone back to the carriage.

An hour later, Yun Lintian, Yang Chen, and Bai Yun walked out of the academy and prepared to return to their respective residences.

However, before Yun Lintian could leave, he was pulled back by Bai Yun. “Right, I almost forgot about it. Little Brother Yun. My father has invited you to visit our Bai clan. Do you want to go? If you don’t want to go, I won’t force you.”

“Your father?” Yun Lintian was puzzled. A moment later, he understood Bai Yun’s father probably wanted to make friends with him. He nodded. “I’ll go with Brother Bai then.”

He then turned to Yang Chen. “Do you want to go with us?”

Yang Chen shook his head. “No, Brother Yun. I will return to the inn.”

“Fine.” Yun Lintian gave a light nod and turned to Bai Yun. “Let’s go, Brother Bai.”

Bai Yun arranged another carriage to send Yang Chen back while he and Yun Lintian headed toward the Bai manor.

Several minutes later, the carriage arrived at a simple wooden gate with ‘Bai Manor’ engraved on it. Yun Lintian took a look around and discovered this seemingly simple gate and wall weren’t simple as they appeared to be. He could see a top-level formation specially inscribed on them everywhere. It was truly deserved to be a powerful clan’s residence.

Passing through the gate, Yun Lintian could see many simple wooden buildings neatly arranged on both sides. This wasn’t something he expected, as he thought the residence of a top clan like this should be more grandeur. However, this place was not much different from a small outskirt town. 

“Our clan has totally fifty thousand clansmen. Our strength isn’t inferior to any other clans. The only downside is that we don’t have a strong backer like the Peng clan.” Bai Yun introduced the general situation briefly. 

Yun Lintian could feel a sincerity from Bai Yun as he didn’t hide his clan’s strength and weakness from him. Though it looked like ordinary information, not many people admitted they had a shortcoming. 

A while later, the carriage stopped in front of a big building. It was bigger than any surrounding buildings. Walking into the building, Yun Lintian was even more amazed by the simpleness of this place. There wasn’t any fancy furniture like he thought. All of them were pretty ordinary to the point that Yun Lintian found the furniture in those villages he had been to better.

Bai Yun led Yun Lintian to a spacious hall with a long table in the middle. Sitting at the head of the table were a middle-aged man and a gentle-looking woman. Yun Lintian could recognize right away, these two must be Bai Yun’s parents.

“You’re back.” The gentle-looking woman, Lu Ran, said upon seeing her son. While the middle-aged man, Bai Yunfeng, observed Yun Lintian carefully.

“Father, Mother. This is Brother Yun.” Bai Yun greeted his parents and made an introduced gesture.

Yun Lintian gave a slight bow and greeted. “Greetings Patriarch Bai and Senior Lu.”

A kind smile appeared on Bai Yunfeng’s lips as he responded. “You don’t have to be polite. Just call me Uncle Bai.”

“You can call me Aunty Lu too.” Lu Ran added.

“Uncle Bai, Aunty Lu.” Yun Lintian greeted once again. He felt these two people didn’t have an expert aura at all. They gave off a kind of friendly aura that could make anyone relax when facing them. If it wasn’t because he knew beforehand they were Bai Yun’s parents, Yun Lintian would definitely think they were ordinary people.

“Come, take a seat.” Bai Yunfeng beckoned Yun Lintian to take a seat on his right side and called a servant to serve tea. When Yun Lintian sat down, Bai Yunfeng asked. “I heard you went to visit the academy earlier? What do you think about it?”

Yun Lintian replied truthfully. “I haven’t touched the core of the academy, so I can’t talk about it much. However, my first impression is that it is a good place for a practitioner with a commoner background.”

Bai Yunfeng smiled faintly and changed the topic. “I think you should be already aware why I invite you here today, so uncle will be frank with you. However, before that, can you tell me the connection between you and Palace Master Han? If it’s not convenient, then you don’t have to tell uncle.”

Here comes again. Yun Lintian sighed inwardly. He shook his head. “There’s nothing inconvenient. We’ve coincidently met back then, and I happened to help her with something. Since then, Palace Master Han owed me a favor, and now she has repaid it. If uncle is looking forward to this, I think I have to disappoint you. We are not that close, and I can’t ask her for help all the time.”

Bai Yunfeng stared into Yun Lintian’s eyes for a while and laughed slightly. “What do you think of uncle? I’m not such a person, alright? Though I admitted the connection between you and Palace Master Han indeed makes me want to befriend you, it’s not everything. Uncle believes your own strength alone is worthy enough to make our Bai clan get to know you.”
