The Supreme Being Against Heaven

Huangfu Dynasty – Meteor City, Moon-Viewing City

A cold wind howled fiercely as heavy snow fell, covering the Tan family residence, which was bustling with people and beautifully decorated with lanterns and ribbons.

Since the heavens have allowed me to be reborn and return to the day of my wedding, I, Tan Yun, will never allow the tragedy to repeat itself!

Liu Ruyan, Situ Jiannan—one day I will destroy both of your families!

Dressed in his groom’s attire, Tan Yun stared firmly at the snow-white sky. His eyes were wide with hatred as memories of the past flashed through his mind.

Three days earlier, on the day of his wedding to Liu Ruyan, the daughter of the Liu family, the heads of the Liu and Situ families had bribed the Tan family’s steward in order to seize the Tan family’s wealth. They secretly poisoned the wine at the wedding banquet, causing Tan Yun’s father and grandfather to die. After that, they massacred 308 members of the Tan family!

Before dying, Tan Yun saw his fiancée Liu Ruyan in her bridal dress standing intimately beside Situ Jiannan, the young master of the Situ family, like lovers.

Only then did he realize that Liu Ruyan and Situ Jiannan had been secretly involved with each other for a long time.

“Tan Yun… my mission has been completed. The rest of this life depends on you to take revenge yourself.”

Suddenly, a faint voice echoed within Tan Yun’s mind.

“Who’s there?!”

Tan Yun was extremely startled.

“I am in your Spirit Pool. Come in, and we’ll talk.”

The faint voice echoed in his mind once again.

Shivering slightly, Tan Yun closed his eyes and entered meditation. His consciousness soon arrived at the Spirit Pool located between his eyebrows.

The Spirit Pool was the place where cultivators stored the spiritual energy of heaven and earth—it was the very foundation of a cultivator’s life.

The moment Tan Yun arrived there, his pupils shrank sharply.

In the center of the Spirit Pool floated a jade-green rhombus-shaped sphere.

It was about the size of a fist and emitted a faint glow.

Tan Yun stared at it. A strange feeling like a bloodline connection suddenly surged in his heart, and the vigilance in his eyes gradually turned into confusion.

“Who are you? Why are you here?”

“I am you, and you are me. Unfortunately, I do not have much time left, so I cannot explain everything one by one.”

The voice from inside the sphere became even weaker.

“I am willing to turn into ashes to return your eternal memories!”

“Remember… you must take revenge!”

The moment the voice finished speaking, Tan Yun felt as if his head were about to split apart. A vast torrent of fragmented memories flooded into his mind before gradually forming countless continuous scenes.

In those scenes, he saw all of his past lives—ten thousand reincarnations!

In every single reincarnation, his family had been brutally massacred!

Throughout endless time, among all his relatives and loved ones, not a single person had ever survived.

And the origin of all this… came from a cruel curse placed on him in his first life.

In his first life, he was the Primordial God, a supreme being whose power shook the heavens and countless realms. However, the Supreme God of Chaos and the Supreme God of Origin joined forces to kill him and then cursed him to reincarnate endlessly.

Their goal was to completely destroy his powerful soul through countless cycles of rebirth.

The emerald sphere in his Spirit Pool was actually the foundation of the Primordial God Realm—the Heart of Primordial Chaos.

The man who had just spoken was actually a fragment of divine consciousness that Tan Yun had refined and placed within the Heart of Primordial Chaos in his first life.

It was this fragment of divine consciousness that carried the Heart of Primordial Chaos, broke through the barriers of heaven and the myriad worlds, fell from the River of Stars of the Purgatory Realm, and arrived in the mortal world—allowing him to be reborn on this crucial day.

“Haha… eternal reincarnation… forcing my family to be exterminated in every lifetime!”

After laughing bitterly, Tan Yun’s gaze turned sharp like an unsheathed sword as he declared resolutely:

“Supreme God of Chaos! Supreme God of Origin! I, Tan Yun, will ascend the Nine Heavens of the Immortal Realm and step into the Divine Realm—and when that day comes, I will make both of you die miserably!”

After obtaining the memories of countless reincarnations, Tan Yun also gained the knowledge from his first life: alchemy, formations, weapon forging, talisman crafting, and countless other heavenly arts.

He swore that in this final life, he would return to the Divine Realm to claim his revenge!

He would trample those traitorous immortals and gods beneath his feet and slaughter them all!

But the most urgent matter now was to resolve the crisis threatening the Tan family’s destruction.

“Brother Tan Yun, why are you standing here? Your godmother asked me to come find you. She told you to return to the VIP hall to finish the wedding ceremony.”

A girl’s voice as gentle as spring rain sounded.

A beautiful young woman in a pink dress hurried toward him.

Her eyes sparkled, her teeth were white and neat, her skin was as pale as snow, and her long black hair flowed gracefully over her shoulders. She was breathtakingly beautiful, like a fairy descending from heaven.

She was Nangong Yuqin, Tan Yun’s sworn younger sister.

She had been abandoned in Moon-Viewing City as an infant and later adopted by Feng Jingru, Tan Yun’s mother.

From a young age, she was obedient and sensible. Not only was she naturally beautiful, but she also possessed astonishing talent in cultivation.

At only ten years old, she had already reached the third level of the Spirit Embryo Realm.

Because of this, Feng Jingru officially adopted her as a daughter.

By the age of fifteen, she had already reached the sixth level of the Spirit Embryo Realm and was recognized as one of the three geniuses of Moon-Viewing City, alongside Liu Ruyan and Situ Jiannan.

As for Tan Yun, although he was already sixteen, his cultivation remained at only the third level of the Spirit Embryo Realm, making him the famous “waste” of Moon-Viewing City.

“Alright… I’ll go back now…”

Tan Yun had just turned around when his voice suddenly stopped.

He looked at Nangong Yuqin.

Suddenly, an indescribable sadness surged in his heart like a tide of sorrow.

A scene from his previous life suddenly surfaced in his memory.

At sunset, when the sky was dyed blood-red, on a steep cliff, a powerful sword light slashed toward him.

At that moment, a girl with the exact same face as Nangong Yuqin pushed him away!

But the price she paid… was her life.

Her crimson blood dimmed the final light of the setting sun.

When the memory faded, Tan Yun’s eyes turned red.

He looked at Nangong Yuqin with deep tenderness, his heart filled with joy at meeting her again in this life.

He silently vowed in his heart:

“Yuqin… in this life, I will never betray you!”

Nangong Yuqin’s face instantly flushed red, and her heart began to race under Tan Yun’s deep gaze.

At that moment, she suddenly felt…

Tan Yun had changed.

In her memory, although Tan Yun was the young master of the Tan family, he was treated as a useless waste by the entire city and always looked depressed and inferior.

But today, she could no longer sense any trace of inferiority from him.

“Yuqin, later during the wedding ceremony between me and Liu Ruyan, you don’t need to attend. Go buy the most beautiful bridal dress in the city for me.”

Tan Yun suddenly seemed to recall something, his expression firm.

“Ah… alright.”

Nangong Yuqin looked at him in confusion before smiling sweetly. Then she quickly rushed out of the mansion, leaving only a few faint afterimages behind.

Tears filled her beautiful eyes.

In truth, she loved Tan Yun deeply.

But she knew that their statuses were as different as heaven and earth.

And she—born as a servant girl—was not worthy of him.

The spacious VIP hall was packed with people.

In Moon-Viewing City, there were three great families: the Situ family, the Tan family, and the Liu family.

Today was a joyous occasion for the Tan family, so almost every important figure in the city had come to attend.

Even Bai Qiusheng, the most respected alchemist in the city, was seated among the guests.

At the head table sat Tan Yun’s parents, his grandfather, and Liu Boyi, his future father-in-law.

Seeing that Tan Yun had not yet returned, the four of them could only smile awkwardly.

The bride, Liu Ruyan, stood elegantly at the entrance of the hall, her face hidden beneath a bridal veil.

“Tan Feng, it’s time. Go bring Yun’er here immediately.”

The old patriarch Tan said while glancing at Tan Feng, his face slightly pale.

“Father, please calm down. I’ll go right now…”

But before Tan Feng could finish speaking, Tan Yun stepped into the hall.

“Grandfather, Father, I’m back.”

“Yun’er, you’re already this old. Why are you still behaving so immaturely?”

Feng Jingru scolded him before turning to the steward Tan Zizhong, who was holding a jug of fine wine.

“Steward, begin the wedding ceremony.”

“Yes, Madam!”

Just as Tan Zizhong finished speaking, Tan Yun’s voice rang out like thunder, shocking everyone present.

“Steward—stop!”

Ignoring Liu Ruyan completely, Tan Yun declared firmly:

“Today, there will be no marriage between me and Liu Ruyan. And there never will be in the future!”

As he spoke, he pulled out the engagement contract from his robe and tore it apart in front of everyone!

“What’s going on?! Young Master Tan actually canceled the engagement in public!”

“This is basically slapping Patriarch Liu in the face!”

“Yes! What’s happening? Miss Liu is a heaven-blessed beauty—why would he think she’s unworthy?”

“Shh… keep your voice down…”

Amid the murmurs of over a hundred clan leaders, Liu Boyi suddenly stood up and shouted angrily at Old Master Tan.

“Tan Changchun! In what way is my daughter unworthy of your useless grandson?! Your Tan family has gone too far!”

“Patriarch Liu, please calm down.”

Old Master Tan quickly stood up to apologize, his body trembling slightly as he glared at Tan Yun.

“You unfilial brat! Are you trying to anger me to death?! If you don’t explain yourself clearly, I’ll break your legs myself!”

“You unfilial son! I’ll beat you to death!”

Tan Feng rushed forward and raised his palm to slap Tan Yun.

“I only have one son—stop!”

Feng Jingru rushed over like a shadow and shielded Tan Yun.

“Madam, you’re still protecting this unfilial brat at a time like this?!”

Tan Feng’s hand froze above her head, his face red with anger.

“Father, husband, please calm down and listen to Yun’er’s explanation first!”

With tears in her eyes, Feng Jingru urged Tan Yun:

“Yun’er, hurry and explain to your father, your grandfather, and Patriarch Liu!”

“No explanation is necessary!”

Liu Boyi roared, his voice echoing through the hall.

“Does your Tan family think the Liu family has no backing? For today’s humiliation, your Tan family will pay the price!”

“Guards!”

Naturally, Liu Boyi had no intention of giving the Tan family a chance to explain.

Although he was furious that Tan Yun publicly canceled the engagement, humiliating both his daughter and the Liu family, it was also the perfect opportunity to eliminate the Tan family!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Suddenly, 500 Liu family guards who had been hiding around the Tan mansion rushed in with swords, instantly surrounding the VIP hall.

Among them, more than 200 were actually soldiers of the Situ family in disguise.

“How dare you behave arrogantly inside the Tan family!”

At that moment, a sharp shout rang out.

Two hundred Tan family guards holding spears rushed in to confront the enemy without fear.

“I, the head of the Situ family, cannot stand by any longer!”

Situ Tianlun, the patriarch of the Situ family, stood up and walked to Liu Boyi’s side.

“Old Master Tan, you are digging your own grave!”

At once, both men unleashed their auras.

The terrifying power of the Eighth Level of the Nascent Soul Realm spread throughout the hall, along with undisguised killing intent.

“Father… please seek justice for me… sob…”

Liu Ruyan lifted her veil, pretending to cry as she ran to Liu Boyi’s side.

“I don’t want to live anymore… sob…”

“Hahaha! Keep acting—keep acting!”

Tan Yun laughed wildly as he stared at Liu Ruyan.

Then he swept his gaze across the clan leaders who were glaring at him angrily.

“Don’t you want to know why I canceled the engagement?”

“Fine. I’ll tell you!”

His right hand suddenly turned into a claw as he spun around and grabbed Tan Zizhong, the steward, by the mouth!

With his left hand, he seized the wine jug and forcefully poured it into the steward’s mouth while shouting:

“You treacherous old dog! You accepted Liu Boyi’s bribe and poisoned the wine, planning to kill my father and grandfather during the wedding toast!”

“N-No… Young Master… I know I was wrong…”

Tan Zizhong begged for mercy in terror as Tan Yun forced the entire jug of poisoned wine down his throat.

“Pfft!”

His eyes rolled back, white foam poured from his mouth, and black poisonous blood spurted out.

He died instantly.
