Chapter 54: Departure

Yun Lintian and Yun Huanxin arrived at the treasury and saw Yun Lingwei had already removed all the restrictions around the place. Yun Lintian hastily put everything into his interspatial ring and made sure there was nothing left before he, along with Yun Huanxin, and Yun Lingwei, departed from this place.

"Forth Aunt, take these Profound Stones to activate the mist formation too. I want to block their eyes. And you can lower the defense a bit. Let them break the formation in the next five minutes." Yun Lintian took out several middle-grade Profound Stones and handed them to Yun Lingwei.

"Okay." Yun Lingwei was puzzled slightly. She retrieved the Profound Stones and headed to the formation's eyes.

Meanwhile, Yun Lintian and Yun Huanxin went to the healing chamber where the remains of the Misty Cloud Sect's disciples were kept.

Yun Lintian stood in front of them with a solemn expression. A flame of fury ignited within his heart. He swore to let the enemy die with the most pain possible.

"Sisters, I'm sorry. I failed to come back in time. But all of you don't have to worry. I will let the enemy pay the price sooner or later." Yun Lintian bowed ninety degrees to 176 lifeless bodies on the ice beds.

"I'll take everyone to the place. You can rest in peace there." Yun Lintian stored all of them into his interspatial ring and turned to Yun Huanxin. "Let's go. Before we leave this place, I will give them a big gift." A cold glint flashed in his eyes when he said this.

For some reason, Yun Huanxin felt a chill running down her spine at his words. She nodded slightly and brought him to Yun Lingwei.

"We didn't leave anything, right?" Yun Lintian asked.

Yun Huanxin and Yun Lingwei used their Spiritual Sense to check everything one last time and gave Yun Lintian a confirmation.

Yun Lintian sat down in the formation's eyes and adjusted something briefly.

Yun Lingwei's pupils shrank slightly when she saw this. She immediately recognized his action. "Lintian, are you…."

"Yes. I'm going to do that." Yun Lintian admitted nonchalantly. He stood up and looked at Qi Qianxing and the enemy with a murderous aura.

Yun Lingwei swallowed saliva nervously, and she looked at Yun Huanxin as if she wanted to tell her something, but she didn't in the end.

"Let's go." Yun Lintian waved his hand and headed to the transmission formation before vanishing into it with Yun Huanxin and Yun Lingwei.

At this moment, Qi Qianxing frowned upon seeing the Misty Cloud Peak was filled with white mist. He spread his Spiritual Sense out but could not penetrate the barrier.

"All of you, with me." Qi Qianxing realized there was something wrong. He floated to the front of the barrier and condensed profound energy in his right hand before he slammed at the barrier at the same time as others.

Boom!

The barrier shook, and a crack on the barrier instantly spread out like a spiderweb before it crumbled in the next moment.

"Go!" Qi Qianxing ordered, but he stood calmly in the air, did not go inside.

Qi Qianxing's several subordinates speedily went in and checked for a sign of life, but they didn't find any trace. Just as they were about to go back, several red lights shone brightly around the Misty Cloud Peak.

"Run!" One man among them shouted as he perceived a grave danger. However, before he could move, the Misty Cloud Peak immediately exploded in every direction.

Rumble—

Qi Qianxing conjured a protective barrier in front of him with a grimace expression. Now, he was certain all the Misty Cloud Sect's people had already escaped from this place… How could they use the transmission formation with such a large group? Besides, I've already laid a disruptor around here. He thought he had overestimated them already, but in truth, he still underestimated them.

"Your… Majesty." The old man with a white beard appeared among the debris and knelt in front of Qi Qianxing. Among them, only he survived as he was the only Ruler Profound Realm's practitioner.

"Take your time." Qi Qianxing didn't have much feeling seeing his subordinates died before him. The only thing he had on his mind right now was, where did Yun Qianxue and the rest go?

"Contact our people at the borders. No one allows passing." Qi Qianxing sent an order through the sound transmission jade.

***

"Third Aunt, we go north. I think Qi Qianxing was probably closing the borders by now. We need to hurry." Yun Lintian's group appeared in the cave nearby the river.

"North? Understood." Yun Huanxin was curious about it.

Yun Lintian called the silver gate out and said, "Fourth Aunt, you go back first and settle a place for everyone. I'll go back when we left the border."

Yun Lingwei nodded. She examined the silver gate briefly before she entered.

Following that, Yun Huanxin brought Yun Lintian toward the Heavenly Fortune Nations' Northern Border at lightning speed.

In the next thirty minutes, both of them appeared at the border and carefully observed several guards on a wall.

"Can we pass it without them knowing?" Yun Lintian asked.

Yun Huanxin checked the formation around the wall for a while before she gave him a confident nod. "I can use a long spatial leap."

"That's great. Let's go." Yun Lintian heaved a sigh of relief. Truthfully, although he didn't fear Qi Qianxing's pursuit, he still didn't want to leave a trace behind.

Yun Huanxin gathered the Space element for a while before he took Yun Lintian and disappeared from the spot. Later, they reappeared one kilometer away from the wall. No matter what, Qi Qianxing would never imagine there were only two of them leaving the Heavenly Fortune Nation instead of a large group as he expected.

"Are you alright, Third Aunt?" Yun Lintian asked concernedly as he saw Yun Huanxin panted slightly.

Yun Huanxin replied, "I can still do another five jumps. Let's do it." Without waiting for Yun Lintian to respond, she took him away directly.

After checking it was far enough from the border, Yun Lintian found a secluded place called the silver gate, going in with Yun Huanxin.

In the Land of Beyond Heaven, Yun Qianxue sat beside the Profound Spirit Lake with her legs soaking in while others were busy inspecting around.

Yun Lintian arrived beside her. "Mom, why don't you get into the lake? You will recover faster by doing that."

Yun Qianxue tilted her head to look at him with a smile and asked, "Is it done?"

Yun Lintian nodded and confessed to her honestly, "Mom, I've blown the entire Misty Cloud Peak. I hope you will forgive me." He didn't know whether Yun Qianxue would feel sad because of it.

Yun Qianxue's expression didn't change in the slightest. She replied softly, "You are the Sect Master now. You can do everything as you wish."

Yun Lintian hurriedly responded, "Mom, I will return the position to you once you've recovered."

Yun Qianxue didn't reply. She changed the topic. "Why don't you tell me, where is this place?"

Yun Lintian knew she deliberately avoided the topic, but he didn't insist further. "Do you remember the silver necklace around my neck?" Seeing Yun Qianxue nodded, he continued, "I don't know what's going on, but it somehow awakened and became like this."

Yun Qianxue frowned slightly. To her knowledge, there wasn't such a profound artifact that could create a space like this. This silver necklace was something from the higher world.

Seeing she fell into her own thoughts, Yun Lintian said. "Mom, I am going to bury our sisters at the mountain over there. What do you think?"

Yun Qianxue stopped thinking and looked at the lush mountain range behind the dazzling waterfall. She replied. "That's good. Brings mom there too."

Yun Lintian immediately gathered everyone and moved to the mountain range. The mountain wasn't high; it was only around 700 meters, enough to see everything within the Land of Beyond Heaven from the top of it. The scenery around here could be described as breathtakingly beautiful. Countless maple and oak trees were mixing together, giving off a soothing vibe.

Yun Lintian chose a relatively flat land to bury 176 bodies with their name on a gravestone. The atmosphere was solemn, filling with sorrow as several people wept silently. This would be the last time they see their beloved friends and fellow sisters.

After finishing everything, Yun Lintian turned around, facing everyone, and asked, "Do you want revenge?"

Everyone looked at him, and some of them nodded their heads while crying.

"Good! We will work hard from now on, and I will give all of you a higher level profound art. At the bottom of the lake, there are countless high-grade Profound Stones. I will give them to you. All of you will have the same share no matter what level you are currently at." Yun Lintian said.

Seeing everyone silent, Yun Lintian said further, "Today we will take a rest first, and tomorrow I will tell everyone a new rule. Now you can go." He then turned to the Four Hall Masters. "Four aunts, please come with me."

Yun Lintian brought Yun Qianxue, Yun Meilan, and the Four Hall Masters to his villa. When they arrived in the living room, they were immediately attracted by strange furniture.

"Where is this place? And what is this black box?" Yun Lingwei examined the TV with interest as she found it novel.

Yun Lintian smiled and said, "This is my house."

"Your house?" Yun Ruanyu asked in confusion.

Yun Lintian nodded. "More precisely, this is my father's house."

His words instantly dumbfounded everyone.
