Myth Beyond Heaven

Yun Lintian and Yun Qianxue stabilized themselves on the ground and looked at each other with serious expressions.

Yun Qianxue shook her wrist slightly to get rid of the numbness and said. "Although your reaction is good, it isn't enough for a high-level battle. I can see that you are relying on your body's instinct to react instead of using Spiritual Sense to anticipate the situation beforehand."

Yun Lintian nodded his head as he also agreed with Yun Qianxue's statement. Before this, Yun Lintian always relied on his instinct and body movement when fighting. The addition of Spiritual Sense had allowed him to have a 'third eye' that could see everything around him. It was supposed to make him stronger, but Yun Lintian could not adapt to it for the time being.

Yun Qianxue said. "Next, you don't have to make a counterattack. I want you to focus on using your Spiritual Sense and avoid my attack. Are you ready?"

Yun Lintian took a deep breath and replied. "Let's begin."

Yun Qianxue's figure immediately vanished once again. This time, Yun Lintian used his Spiritual Sense to lock on her and successfully avoided her first attack. However, he failed to dodge a small ice pike that appeared on his blind spot.

Yun Lintian groaned slightly after being sent to the air by the ice pike. When he landed on the ground, Yun Qianxue had already placed her sword on his neck.

"You are too focused on me and completely unaware of the surrounding situation. This is not the right way to use Spiritual Sense. Come on, try it again." Yun Qianxue retracted her sword and retreated into the distance.

Yun Lintian smiled wryly as he felt stupid somehow. He didn't expect it would be this difficult to use Spiritual Sense. It was entirely a world apart from the he had read before. He adjusted his mood and gave the nod to Yun Qianxue, indicating he was ready.

The battle between the two went on for several hours. During this period, Yun Lintian was beaten down by Yun Qianxue several times, but he also gained an insight into how to use Spiritual Sense. He believed it wouldn't take him too long before he could master it.

"Hah…" Yun Lintian was lying on the ground tiredly, drenching in sweats. It could be said this was the first time he practiced this hard since he came to this world. Though he was tired, he felt a sense of fulfillment. He hadn't felt like this for a long time now.

"Here, take some water." Yun Qianxue arrived beside Yun Lintian and handed him a glass of water.

Yun Lintian tilted his head slightly to look at her. Contrasted to him, Yun Qianxue's current appearance was still flawless as ever. There wasn't even a single drop of sweat on her beautiful face. Her long white hair was swayed freely against the breeze, revealing her white-snow neck, looking extremely allure.

Yun Lintian changed to a sitting posture and received the glass of water from Yun Qianxue. He gulped it down in one go and let out a satisfied sigh. 

"We will continue tomorrow." Yun Qianxue said softly. Her eyes were full of tenderness at this moment, entirely different from the 'strict coach' mode earlier.

Yun Lintian nodded and said. "Thank you."

"Still saying this? Are you treating me as an outsider?" Yun Qianxue pouted like a young girl.

Yun Lintian laughed and suddenly grabbed her hand. "I want to take a bath. Do you want to go with me?"

Yun Qianxue was startled for a second. Why was he so bold now? Even dared to say this? Should I accept his invitation? Wait a moment, would it be too fast? Several questions appeared in her mind, and her heart began to beat like a drum.

Before Yun Qianxue could react, Yun Lintian stood up and suddenly dragged her to the edge of the battle platform before jumping down into the lake. It was only at this moment, Yun Qianxue understood what he meant.

Boom!

The two of them immediately summered into the lake, causing water to splash high in the air.

"What are they doing?" On a small pavilion nearby the platform, Yun Huanxin sat leisurely and said.

"What else? They are flirting." Said Yun Lingwei, who sat opposite Yun Huanxin. She stuffed a newly made cookie into her mouth while giving some to Linlin.

"Oh." Yun Huanxin was enlightened and took a sip of spirit tea, looking at the two splashed water on each other.

Linlin stared at Yun Lintian and Yun Qianxue attentively. She suddenly felt the crisis, as though Yun Qianxue would snatch Yun Lintian's love from her. She quickly jumped off the pavilion and dived into the lake, moving toward Yun Lintian.

"Ah? Linlin?" Yun Lingwei was startled when she saw Linlin's action, but she did not intend to stop her. During this short period, she constantly coaxed Linlin with her pastries and finally made Linlin relax her vigilance. But she could feel Linlin was extremely dependent on Yun Lintian, no matter how she tried to coax her. Hence, she would never stop Linlin when it came to Yun Lintian's issue.

Yun Lintian and Yun Qianxue were engaged in a childish play for a while before floating leisurely on the lake's surface.

"Big Brother Yun." While looking at the clear sky, Yun Lintian heard Linlin's voice, making him turn around and saw Linlin was struggling in the water.

Yun Lintian hurriedly swam toward Linlin and held her in his arm. "Why are you coming here?" He asked concernedly. Linlin had been slumbered for who knows how many years. Her current body was similar to a baby who started learning how to walk.

"I want to play with Big Brother Yun." Linlin replied and blinked her innocent eyes at him.

Yun Lintian could not resist the overloaded cuteness and kissed Linlin's fluffy cheek before asking. "What do you want to play? Big brother will play with you."

"I want to swim." Linlin answered and took a peek at Yun Qianxue.

Yun Qianxue noticed this. She gave a gentle smile back at Linlin and prepared to get off of the lake.. She understood why Linlin was hostile toward her and never thought she would have a tiny tiger as her love rival one day.
