Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 2077 Tang Siblings (2)

The silence stretched, broken only by Tang Wei's gasps as he regained his breath. Relief washed over him. He looked at his sister, her face etched with exhaustion but her eyes shining with triumph. Then, his gaze shifted to Han Bingling, who stood beside her, her expression unreadable.

Hesitantly, Tang Wei approached them. "That was… incredible," he stammered, his voice barely a whisper. "The profound law of ice…"

Having stepped into the Lower God Realm, anyone would have grasped one or two fundamental laws. However, grasping them wouldn't equate to fully comprehending them. The power of law Han Bingling displayed was undoubtedly the strongest Tang Wei had ever witnessed.

Meanwhile, Tang Yumei looked curiously at Han Bingling and her companions. She knew they all concealed their auras but couldn't understand how.

"Very powerful," Yun Lintian praised with a smile.

Han Bingling offered a curt nod of acknowledgment, but her eyes remained fixed on the frozen serpent. "It's far from mastered," she said.

"You will soon," Yun Lintian offered encouragement. In his opinion, everyone here just needed a true experience to improve their power.

Tang Wei rose from the ground, dusted off his robe, and looked at the frozen serpent. "What should we do with this guy?… I think its meat would be delicious."

He had eaten many profound beasts but had never tried one on the Lower God level.

"It's all yours," Yun Lintian said with a smile. "Both of you have put in a lot of effort to help everyone. It should be yours to claim."

"Really!?" Tang Wei's eyes lit up.

Tang Yumei quickly interjected. "No, we should split it equally."

Yun Lintian met her gaze for a moment before nodding. "Leave it to me then."

He raised a hand, his palm glowing with a faint green light. As he focused his energy, intricate runes began to appear, swirling around his hand before detaching and flying towards the frozen serpent.

Crackle—

With a crackling sound, the runes embedded themselves in the ice, melting it before silently extinguishing the serpent's life force.

Yun Lintian then made a gentle sweeping motion with his hand, and the serpent was instantly cleaved into several cubic pieces. With another wave, blood, bones, the divine core, and serpent meat all landed neatly on a large table he had materialized.

Tang Yumei and Tang Wei were surprised. Even though the serpent was already frozen, cleanly cutting its body like this was no easy feat. They both immediately realized that Yun Lintian might be the strongest person present.

"I only need the divine core," Han Bingling said.

"No problem," Tang Yumei readily agreed.

Han Bingling waved her hand, pulling the golden divine core towards her. She glanced at it briefly before handing it to Linlin, who perched on Yun Lintian's shoulder. "Here you go, little sister."

"Thank you, Sister Bingling," Linlin chirped sweetly, popping the divine core into her mouth and crunching on it.

Tang Wei and Tang Yumei were astonished by this sight.

"A divine beast…" Tang Yumei murmured, bewildered. She hadn't expected such power to reside in this cute white cat.

Linlin munched contentedly on the divine core like a snack, her gaze flickering curiously between Tang Yumei and Tang Wei.

"Big Brother Yun, let's grill some of that!" Qingqing eyed the serpent meat with a drool-worthy stare.

As Yun Lintian's strength had grown considerably, so had Qingqing's appetite. Directly linked to his power, she now stood at the peak of the Lower God Realm.

Snapping out of his daze, Tang Wei quickly interjected, "Let's cook it!"

He immediately retrieved several pots and pans and set about building a fire, preparing for a grand feast.

"Allow me to lend a hand," Yun Lintian offered, stepping forward and showcasing his culinary expertise.

"What's your name, brother?" Tang Wei inquired as he observed Yun Lintian's skillful grilling technique.

"Yun Lintian," Yun Lintian replied, seeing no point in using an alias here. "These are my wives."

Tang Wei gave him an enthusiastic thumbs up. "You're incredibly strong, Brother Yun!" he exclaimed with envy.

"Are you both natives?" Yun Lintian asked, adding seasoning to the sizzling meat.

"No," Tang Wei shook his head. "We're from the Celestial Realm."

"The Celestial Realm?" Yun Lintian was surprised. "That's quite a distance. What brings you here?"

"The God Tomb, obviously," Tang Wei replied. "Our Master forced us to come."

Yun Lintian raised an eyebrow slightly. "This is a dangerous place, even for Peak Lower Gods like yourselves. Why would your Master send you on this mission?"

Ever the cautious one, Tang Yumei interjected before her brother could reveal any more secrets. "Let's not discuss this here," she said, her gaze darting nervously around the clearing. "We can explain everything after the meal."

Yun Lintian nodded in agreement and continued cooking.

The scent of grilled serpent meat filled the air, a tantalizing aroma that piqued everyone's curiosity. Unable to resist any longer, Qingqing darted towards the makeshift grill, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.

Yun Lintian chuckled and expertly flipped the meat with a practiced hand. "Alright," he conceded, "let's enjoy the meal."

As the group settled around the table, a sense of camaraderie began to form. Despite their initial apprehension, Tang Wei and Tang Yumei couldn't help but be drawn to Yun Lintian's easygoing nature and the playful banter between his wives.

Linlin, perched on Yun Lintian's shoulder, observed the scene with her large, intelligent eyes, occasionally letting out a soft purr when Yun Lintian scratched behind her ears.

At this moment, Xun Lang and the other practitioners who had fled earlier returned. They gaped in astonishment at the aromatic grilled meat on the table, undoubtedly the meat of the ferocious serpent they had encountered.

The colossal serpent, once a terrifying force of nature, was now reduced to a pile of steaming meat, ready to be devoured.

Tang Wei noticed them and waved a hand dismissively. "Come, everyone. Let's eat together," he said with a carefree smile.

Tang Yumei rolled her eyes at her brother's impulsiveness and apologized to Yun Lintian's group. "Sorry about that. My brother can be stupid sometimes."

Yun Lintian chuckled. "No worries. It's a rare thing to see someone with such a pure heart."

"What are you talking about, Sis?" Tang Wei looked at his sister in confusion.

Tang Yumei, too lazy to explain, continued eating silently.

Xun Lang and the other practitioners were mortified but couldn't resist the temptation of Lower God meat. Ultimately, unable to overcome their shamelessness, they stepped forward and joined the table…
