《Myth Beyond Heaven 》Chapter 87: Paradise?

"Who could it be?" Wang Jian frowned. Throughout the Sky Fall Nation, there were only two Heaven Profound Formation Masters. One was the Tian royal clan's protector, and another was Elder Su in front of him.
"It shouldn't be that old man Tian Xun. Considering his status, he won't do something like this." Elder Su touched his chin and pondered. Although the killing formation within the Feng manor was not regarded as a high-level one, it was still difficult to destroy. Let alone changing it to their own use. Unless that person was a Ruler Profound Formation Master.
Thinking of this, Elder Su shook his head and thought it was impossible. He hailed from the White Feather Sect, one of the top sects within the Northern Continent. Even in such a place could not find the Ruler Profound Formation Master easily. Hence, he didn't think this kind of top character would appear here in a tiny place and messed with his formation on a whim.
Wang Jian naturally knew about this, too. He pondered briefly and decided. "We should check it out."
Elder Su thought the same and quickly brought Wang Jian, flying out of the hall. If Yun Lintian was here, he would be shocked to the core because the aura that Elder Su had just released was on the first level of Saint Profound Realm!

"Where is this place?" In the spacious hall, a six-year-old little girl looked around curiously. She remembered she lived in the temporary shelter earlier and suddenly fell asleep. Waking up again, she already found herself in this gorgeous hall.
"Ai'er, come here." A middle-aged woman pulled the little girl into her embrace and looking around vigilantly. She just woke up earlier and had no idea about this place.

Upon seeing there was no danger, she hurriedly woke women nearby her up one by one.
"Have you woken already?" Suddenly, a gentle female voice resounded from the entrance, causing everyone to turn their heads and immediately stunned by the incoming woman's appearance. In their eyes, this woman was akin to a fairy in heaven.
"W-who are you?" The middle-aged woman did not relax her vigilance.
The woman smiled. "My name is Yun Qingrou. All of you were brought to this place by the man who saved you."
The middle-aged woman frowned slightly and asked, "Where is this place?… It's not cold at all." When she asked, she suddenly realized this place was warm, as though it was during spring.
Yun Qingrou patiently replied, "This place will be your new home from now on. All of you can live here with peace of mind." Before the middle-aged woman could ask further, Yun Qingrou said, "Come with me. I'll introduce this place to you."
The middle-aged woman hesitated and looked at other women before she mustered her courage and followed Yun Qingrou out of the hall.
Seeing this, everyone didn't hesitate anymore and brought their child to follow suit.
When they stepped out of the hall, the first thing that came to their sights was the beautiful lake with unfinished constructing seven pagodas at the center. This scenery was beautiful beyond words. They never saw any place like this before. If it wasn't because they could still feel the pain, they would have thought they were already dead and this place was a paradise.
Yun Qingrou saw their current expression and couldn't help smiling because they were the same as her when she first came here. She introduced, "This Profound Spirit Lake is called the Misty Lake. The water in the lake is the Profound Spirit Liquid. It could help practitioners improve their bodies and aiding in their practice. You will learn about it later."

Obviously, they had no clue about the usage of the Profound Spirit Liquid as they were ordinary people without qualification to enter the profound ways before.
The middle-aged woman asked uncertainly, "This Miss Yun, where exactly is this place? I don't see any snow here."
Yun Qingrou smiled, "I can't tell you this for the time being, but you will eventually learn about this place later… Follow me. I will bring everyone to the residence area."
The middle-aged woman didn't linger on this topic further, as she feared Yun Qingrou would lose her patience. She hurriedly followed Yun Qingrou behind with her daughter and the rest.
Along the way, the group of women saw various exotic scenery such as Heavenly Sandalwood forest and Serene Bamboo forest. Everything looked ethereal, making them want to stay in this place forever.
Yun Qingrou brought them to the newly built residence near the fertile land that was now full of crops. When the women saw the building, they were curious as they never saw this kind of architecture design before. It looked simple yet pleasing to their eyes.
"This is your residence. There are four bedrooms, two bathrooms, one kitchen, and one living room within one unit. All of you have to divide into a group of four, and you choose any unit as you please." Yun Qingrou explained after bringing them to one of the nearby rooms.
All the women were immediately attracted by the interior. Although it looked strange for them, this place was countless times better than their previous houses.
Yun Qingrou took this time to patiently explain the function of the faucet, toilet, and electricity to everyone.
Everything in this room was novel to them. Especially this water system. Normally, they would have to fetch the water from the river by themselves, but now they could have the water sending to their room directly by just opening the faucet.
In the kitchen, they didn't have to light a fire at all. They could simply place the pan on this induction stove, and the heat would come out a while later. It was too convenient. And the bathroom was a paradise. Which woman doesn't love bathing? With this spacious white marble bathtub, they swore they could lie in this tub for the entire day with no problem.
"How is it?" Yun Qingrou looked at everyone with a smile.
The middle-aged woman had experienced many ups and downs throughout her life, making her cautious to the extreme. She knew there was no free lunch in this world. It was impossible Yun Lintian would give them this treatment simply out of kindness.
She mustered her courage and asked, "What price do we have to pay?"
Her question immediately brought everyone back from an ecstatic state as they looked at Yun Qingrou nervously… That's right, how could they obtain all of this without paying?

Humans are trying their best to explore and clear out wilderness and the dungeons hiding in them to establish new cities. Lords seek for hired hands to do the professional work. Thanks to the setting, the story will show how awful pasts are the norm and how pragmatic people became thanks to that. People exchange their sanity for riches, fame and gods acceptance. Interpersonal relationships change drastically and quickly. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing grim scenes/imparting a feeling of how grim the world is. Writing fight scenes. Showing different mental states. Describing their influence on people during fights, walks or even after successful or failed campaigns.

The challenges for myself with this story: Writing over the top and overdramatic scenarios/scenes Writing in first person. Walking into stereotypical scenarios and making them more dramatic/giving them a twist. Different type of humor.
