《Myth Beyond Heaven 》Chapter 176: Primordial White Tiger God (2)
Advertisement
"That is something humans calling us." The white tiger, Bai Xiaoyun, replied. "Let me introduce myself again. I am the Primordial White Tiger God, Bai Xiaoyun. What you see currently is a mere wisp of a residual soul left behind by me."
Yun Lintian regained his composure and asked. "A residual soul? You mean…."
Bai Xiaoyun understood Yun Lintian's thought and replied. "Yes, I am already dead."
Yun Lintian's mouth opened and closed several times, but no words came out in the end. Countless questions appeared in his mind, but he didn't dare to ask, as it was too rude. He felt disappointed and sorrowful upon knowing she was already dead. After all, he was looking forward to meeting the divine beasts in mythology and never thought he would meet one in this situation.
Bai Xiaoyun naturally saw through Yun Lintian's thoughts. She said softly. "You don't have to be sad for me. I've already lived long enough."
Yun Lintian adjusted his moods and asked. "The previous roar is yours?"
Bai Xiaoyun replied. "Yes. I did it to suppress all the profound beasts in this place." She transformed back into a human form and continued. "As you have guessed, when you took away The Thunder, the barricade in this place will disappear."
Yun Lintian's expression turned serious. "What should I do then?"
Bai Xiaoyun smiled faintly and asked back. "What is your decision?"
Yun Lintian immediately understood. Whether he wanted to let the profound beasts out or leave it like this, the decision was in his hands. If he chose the first choice, people within Thunder City would face a disaster, but he couldn't take the lightning element source away if he chose the second choice.
Bai Xiaoyun said nothing and watched Yun Lintian calmly. At the same time, her mind seemed to drift to the distant memory.

Yun Lintian fell into deep thought for a long time before coming up with a decision. He raised his head to look at Bai Xiaoyun and said. "I'll have to trouble Senior Bai protecting the lightning element source for me first. I'll come back next time."
Bai Xiaoyun didn't seem to surprise by Yun Lintian's decision. She asked curiously. "Are you certain? The Thunder could give you the strength you urgently needed. Are you going to give up for the sake of people who didn't even know you?"
Yun Lintian replied firmly. "Yes. I've decided. In the worst case, I can just stay in the Land of Beyond Heaven and come out a decade later."
Bai Xiaoyun curled her lips. "I didn't expect a cold-blooded killer who used to treat human life as a grass to come with this decision."
Yun Lintian's pupils shrank as he stared at Bai Xiaoyun coldly. However, it only lasted for a second. Since Bai Xiaoyun could see all of his secrets, he wasn't surprised if she could see his past.
Both of them went silent for a period before Bai Xiaoyun broke the silence. "Actually, you don't need to do this. I have a solution for you. However, you need to promise me something first."
Yun Lintian asked. "What is it?"
Bai Xiaoyun took a deep look at Yun Lintian and said. "I want you to take care of my daughter."
"Your daughter?" Yun Lintian was surprised.
Bai Xiaoyun waved her hand, and a small white tiger appeared beside her. The small tiger resembled Bai Xiaoyun's tiger form, but it was a miniature version. It was laid on a comfortable quilt, sleeping soundly.
"This is my daughter. I haven't named her yet." Bai Xiaoyun said softly while caressing the small tiger affectionately.

Yun Lintian looked at the mother-daughter pair and went silent.
Bai Xiaoyun turned to Yun Lintian and asked. "Are you willing?"
Yun Lintian didn't know why she trusted him so much. He asked. "We just met for a short time, right? Why are you so confident I won't mistreat her? Not to mention, you've seen my past."
Bai Xiaoyun laughed slightly. "Of course, I didn't trust you." She pointed at Yun Lintian's forehead, and suddenly, the Beyond Heaven King's Crown flew out from Yun Lintian's body, landing on Bai Xiaoyun's palm. "I trusted this. The Beyond Heaven King's Crown never chooses a wrong person as its master."
Yun Lintian was stunned when he saw the crown landed on Bai Xiaoyun's palm. Although he could still feel the connection between him and the crown, Yun Lintian was still shocked, as someone could actually summon the crown out of his body.
Bai Xiaoyun stroked the crown with a trace of melancholy in her eyes as she replied. "As I said before, you and I have a connection… And it is this."
She looked at the crown for one last time and let it flew back to Yun Lintian. "In the past, the previous Beyond Heaven King helped my White Tiger God Clan from the catastrophe. In order to repay his gratitude, I've been sent to his side to become his companion."
Yun Lintian was surprised and hurriedly asked. "You know the previous Beyond Heaven King? Where is he now? Is he still alive?"
Before, he had speculated that his father might be the previous Beyond Heaven King, and now Bai Xiaoyun said she was his companion. How could he not be excited?
"I know what you think, but I can say that he is not your father. As for your question, it's not the right time for you to know." Bai Xiaoyun replied.
"Not my father?… How…?" Yun Lintian was confused. How could his father have the Gate of Beyond Heaven with him then?
Bai Xiaoyun smiled faintly. "You will understand one day."
Yun Lintian furrowed his brows. What was this bullshit again? Why couldn't she tell him directly? He hated this kind of situation the most.
Bai Xiaoyun didn't care about his mood and asked. "Tell me, are you willing to take care of my daughter?"
Although Yun Lintian was dissatisfied, he did not burst out on the spot, as he understood there might be something preventing Bai Xiaoyun from telling him everything.
He put all the messy thoughts aside, looked at the cute tiger cub, and said. "I promise you."
Wasn't this the pet he was looking for all this time? He would be an idiot if he rejected this. This was not an ordinary pet. It was the legendary White Tiger!

RETURN, A Dark Lord story.
Return, Synopsis In the Triangulum Galaxy, one of a number of galaxies controlled by the Empire of The DARK LORD, JENNA OF CHRISTOS finds herself on the run after she killed a patrolman. Becoming pilot on a pirate craft, several years later she and other pirates are devastated by attacks of the Imperial Legion and are now trying to regroup. Seeking funds that will help them hide out for a time, their leader THURGOD DRISTA and JENNA meet with a PROFESSOR of galactic history who gives them information, a map and an ancient artifact described as a singing stone. He tells them that this could lead them safely to a legendary treasure trove, called THE DARK LORDS HOARD, on the forbidden planet TRILLA. The hoard is supposed to belong to the ruler of the empire who vanished close to one thousand years before and is presumed to be gone. The treasure is believed to be hidden in a tunnel accessible from the planet surface but no one who has gone into the tunnel has ever come out alive or sane. Leaving the pirate hideout immediately after the meeting and avoiding a major attack by the legion, the pirates travel to the galactic rim for supplies and to leave a false trail. With them they take the PROFESSOR and ILISA, a serving girl. However CAPTAIN TRASKA the commander of a Legions task force called Detachment T, has guessed the pirates intentions and tracked them to the rim. The pirates leave on their next leg to TRILLA unaware that CAPTAIN TRASKA with his force of heavy cruisers, is already there and lying in wait for them. Allowing the pirates to land, including an unexpected second pirate ship, CAPTAIN TRASKA sends a force of troopers to capture both craft and their guards. Before they can do this, THURGOD, the PROFESSOR and others, numbering thirteen altogether and led by JENNA entered the tunnel complex. JENNA, warned by ILISA that she must be the one to hold the singing stone, carries it in the hope that it will guide her and her companions past the many dangers in the tunnel. Shortly afterward, VIS VISTRICER the Legions overall commander travels to Trilla in an armoured planetoid, a spacecraft as large as a moon. On his arrival at TRILLA, VIS VISTRICER meets with CAPTAIN TRASKA but before they can do much, they are both surprised by one of the LADIES OF THE CIRCLE who is waiting for the outcome of what is happening in the tunnels. In the tunnels, JENNA leads THURGOD and the rest of party through many dangers and tests. Four are killed in the tunnels but the rest finally come to their goal where, to their surprise, in a cavern they meet the DARK LORD who is alive and very well. He has been waiting for them so he can return to the Empire. JENNA finds out that the patrol officer is alive and that she and many others have been manipulated all this time by the DARK LORD. She also finds out that ILISA, whose real name is JURA, is a member of the CIRCLE OF LADIES and was sent to teach JENNA many years before on her home planet of Christos. The DARK LORD restores and fulfills a promise to release JURA from her service as a LADY. He next has each pirate declare their own fate and takes them to the surfaces of TRILLA. There, at their election, he executes two of the pirates while JENNA is pardoned and some have the death penalty reprieved. The rest will face the courts of the Legion. VIS VISTRICER is raised to the rank of STAR COMMANDER, the highest rank in the Legion while TRASKA becomes a COMMODORE. The DARK LORD returns to Tihab, the administrative centre of the empire. There he takes up his residence in a surprised and disconcerted imperial palace. JENNA is returned by COMMODORE TRASKA to the planet Christos where she is welcomed by the planets rulers and her family, some of whom were aware of some of what was happening.
