《Myth Beyond Heaven 》Chapter 238: Witty Conspiracy
Advertisement
"Really?" Yun Lingwei thought for a while and believed in Yun Lintian's words. She looked at the pile of ashes and volunteered to clean up. However, she was stopped by Yun Lintian.
"Let's wait for a while. Someone is going to show up soon." Yun Lintian said with a mysterious smile. He read a lot of this kind of cliche plot before. The one behind this stupid act would definitely show up here in a while.
Speak of the devil, a familiar figure appeared at the broken door and glanced at the pile of ashes before turning to Yun Lintian. With a righteous tone, he said. "Yun Lintian! You dare to kill people in the divine city. You should pay with your life!"
This person was no other than the classic young master, Peng Xiaowang. Behind him were five Ruler Profound practitioners. It seemed he had learned his lesson last time and brought many bodyguards with him.
"What are you talking about, Young Master Peng? I didn't do anything at all. I don't know why they came in and became like this." Yun Lintian sighed inwardly. He was already fed up with this cliche plot and didn't understand why this idiot Peng Xiaowang still messed with him. Did he believe with his five bodyguards behind him, he could be safe and sound?
"Don't try to act innocent. I have seen it myself. You just killed all of them." Peng Xiaowang said coldly.
Yun Lintian chuckled and said. "So it was you who sent them here. Otherwise, you wouldn't stay around here and watch everything fold like this. Come on, let's stop this farce and fight." He injected profound energy to enhance his voice so that everyone in the streets could hear it.
Upon hearing this, everyone in the crowd looked toward Peng Xiaowang and immediately realized something. After all, Peng Xiaowang had a notorious reputation. Everyone in the divine city knew about it. It was no surprise if he was behind this.

Peng Xiaowang simply did not care about the crowd's opinion. He waved his hand, ordering the five bodyguards to attack.
Instantaneously, a tremendous pressure spread out, covering the entire building. Yun Lintian immediately realized Peng Xiaowang's goal wasn't himself but the building. However, he remained calm and looked at Peng Xiaowang with a weird expression… This idiot Peng Xiaowang didn't know there was a protective barrier here?
One of the five bodyguards suddenly sent a deadly profound light at Yun Lintian. If Yun Lintian avoided it, the entire room behind him would undoubtedly be destroyed. Hence, Yun Lintian simply took the White Dragon spear out, preparing to crash head-on.
Meanwhile, Yun Lingwei snorted coldly and stomped her feet on the ground. A strong aura surged out from the depth of the building and formed into a transparent profound barrier. The pressure from the five bodyguards immediately vanished.
Roar!
A powerful profound aura burst out of Yun Lintian's body as he thrust his spear forward. A virtual fire dragon instantly appeared, coiled around the spear shortly before charging at the incoming profound light.
The fire dragon opened its mouth and quickly devoured all the profound light before returning to Yun Lintian's spear. This scene made the crowd dumbfounded for a while. They didn't expect this Origin Profound little boy to be this powerful. He could actually render the peak Ruler Profound practitioner's attack useless.
"What are you looking for!? Keep attacking!" Peng Xiaowang looked at the profound barrier annoyingly and urged his bodyguards to crush it down. However, no matter how these bodyguards tried to break it, the barrier remained unbreakable.
Yun Lintian looked at Peng Xiaowang and discovered Peng Xiaowang did not seem to be anxious at all. Perhaps, he had other hidden goals for coming here? His mind spun rapidly, and suddenly a particular possibility flashed across his mind.

Without hesitation, he took a transmission jade out and contacted Bai Yun. "Brother Bai, don't come here."
A second later, Bai Yun responded in confusion. "Why, Little Brother Yun?"
A while ago, after hearing a report from his people, Bai Yun quickly rushed toward Yun Lintian's position without thinking. When he heard Yun Lintian's voice, he immediately halted in his tracks and asked back.
"Trust me, you shouldn't come here. If I guess correctly, Peng Xiaowang should act according to someone's instruction. His real goal should be you, not me." Yun Lintian explained briefly. He believed with Bai Yun's intelligence, he could figure out the reason himself.
Bai Yun pondered for a while and realized the possible conspiracy that Yun Lintian had guessed about it. Basically, Peng Xiaowang wanted to lure Bai Yun out and then put the blame for killing people on him. After that, the Peng clan could use this chance to call for a trial. No matter evidence Bai Yun had, he could not escape from the trial, and Yun Lintian, along with Han Bingling, would be dragged into it too.
Thinking of this, Bai Yun quickly turned around and rushed toward the academy with all his might. The only person that could help Yun Lintian in this situation was Han Bingling.
Seeing Bai Yun did not reply, Yun Lintian believed he should understand the conspiracy already. Yun Lintian looked at Peng Xiaowang with a thoughtful expression. He tried to figure out how to get out of this circumstance.
Just as Yun Lintian had guessed, Peng Xiaowang indeed tried to lure Bai Yun out. While watching his bodyguards attack the barrier, he secretly glanced around from time to time to find Bai Yun's figure. However, he soon realized something was amiss, as Bai Yun should have appeared here a long time ago. Where did he go now?
"Come back. Bai Yun won't come anymore." Suddenly, Peng Zheng's voice rang out in Peng Xiaowang's mind, making him startled for a moment.
"We are going to let him go just like that?" Peng Xiaowang was unwilling. Even though they could not get Bai Yun, killing Yun Lintian shouldn't be a problem.
"Idiot. Han Bingling has already left the academy. If you don't want to die, quickly leave!" Peng Zheng's voice rang out again.
"Shit!" Peng Xiaowang was scared witless upon hearing this. He hurriedly turned around and fled without telling his bodyguards.
