Myth Beyond Heaven-Chapter 1090 Suspicion
The white light disappeared, and everyone in Yun Lintian's group found themselves standing in a simple hall with four men waiting for them.
"Welcome to the Boundless City. Follow me." One of the four men, who had a bulky build stepped forward and said to Yun Lintian.
Yun Lintian and the others didn't say anything and followed the four men out.
Soon, they were led to another spacious hall with a long table in the center. A middle-aged man with a calm expression was sitting there, looking at Yun Lintian's group while nodding slightly.
"Please take a seat." The middle-aged man said and beckoned everyone to sit down. "My name is Dong Linwu. The deputy leader of the Nether Flame Group."
Yun Lintian and the others sat down and waited for Dong Linwu.
"I have long heard about you. Look like the rumor is not exaggerated at all." Dong Linwu said calmly. He said this because his intuition told him that Yun Lintian was extremely dangerous, and he was always right when it came to this.
Yun Lintian smiled and asked. "I wonder when I can go to the Central Ruins?"
"You have to wait for the competition ends." Dong Linwu replied. "This cannot be helped. It's a rule, after all."
He said further after a slight pause. "I have arranged a place for everyone. You can rest here with peace of mind. If you're bored, you can go to the arena later. The winners will be your opponents in ruins. There's no harm in getting to know them first."
Dong Linwu glanced at the four men and said further. "These four will go with you. Oh, please don't misunderstand us. We are not monitoring you or something. They have entered the ruins a few times, and we believe they can provide you accurate information than us… It's also fine if you don't want them."
The four men looked at Yun Lintian calmly, but a trace of disdain could be seen in the depths of their eyes. Especially the bulky man. This person was openly looking down on Yun Lintian's group from the beginning until now.
"Then we don't need their help." Yun Lintian replied instantly.
"Arrogant." The bulky man snorted coldly. "I want to see how long you can survive inside."
Yun Lintian looked at him with a faint smile. "Whether I am arrogant or not, it has nothing to do with you. On the contrary, if you're really that good, your leader won't have to come to me in the first place."
The four men's eyes flashed with anger upon hearing this. They were about to say something but were interrupted by Dong Linwu first.
"It's settled." Dong Linwu said and clapped his hands. Immediately, two female servants walked in and stood on the side.
"They will bring everyone to your room."
Yun Lintian nodded and followed the servants out without giving the four men a second glance.
Watching them leave, the bulky man's face darkened as he said. "Vice-leader, I don't understand why we have to flatter them like this. What's more, those rumors are the rumors, after all. No one knows the truth."
His name was Tao Zhen, a top expert of the Nether Flame Group.
"Zuo Jinlan has confirmed it already during this period. And I can feel a threat from him as well. Moreover, don't you think the man in the gray robe looks familiar?" Dong Linwu said calmly.
The bulky man, Tao Zhen, frowned slightly, and suddenly, his eyes widened in shock. "He's…"
Dong Linwu nodded. "I just got the news that something was going on inside the Divine Thunder Palace."
Zuo Jinlan suspected Lei Zhenxiang's identity when she first saw him. After a round of investigation, she was certain he was the Divine Thunder Palace Mater, Lei Zhenxiang. 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨m
Meanwhile, Dong Linwu had met Lei Zhenxiang before, but the latter probably couldn't remember or see him. Such a person actually followed a young man named Yun Lintian. This could explain a lot of things.
Dong Linwu glanced at Tao Zhen and said with a serious expression. "So, you should restrain your temper. At least you have to wait until everything is done."
"I understand." Tao Zhen took a deep breath and said.
"I hope so." Dong Linwu said and got up, walking out of the hall.

"He looks familiar. I think I have seen him somewhere before." After arriving at the room Dong Linwu prepared for everyone, Lei Zhenxiang spoke in doubt.
"Honestly, I have never heard about a group called Nether Flame before. They must have another name in the outside world." Lei Feifei expressed her thoughts.
Her Black Wings Group was famous and had a wide range of connections. If the Nether Flame Group was that powerful, she must have heard about them, but this was her first time hearing this name.
"They should be a newly established group. I had never heard about them during my visit a hundred years ago." Qin Wuji said. "The Boundless Desert Emperor has existed for thousands of years from what I know, but this is the first time I heard about the so-called competition."
He was puzzled as he spoke. "And I only know now there is such a place called Central Ruins. There wasn't anything about it back then. No matter how I think of it, this matter is too strange."
Gong Yanhong frowned slightly and said. "Could it be the so-called Boundless Desert Emperor encountering a mishap inside the Central Ruins, and he wants people to help him get out? Anyway, only he can reach that place."
Yun Lintian had also thought about this before, but he denied it. He didn't think someone who could control this place stuck inside the ruins. It was more like he was waiting for someone to find him.
During this period, Yun Lintian talked with Lauya and Hongyue about the possibility of The Earth giving birth to a spirit body like Qingqing, but both denied it confidently. As for what reason, they didn't tell him directly. ƒ𝚛𝐞𝚎𝑤𝘦𝚋𝓷o𝚟e𝘭.c𝐨𝙢
This meant this emperor was a person who had nothing to do with The Earth in the first place. Perhaps he was just a lucky guy.
