The Supreme Being Against Heaven
Chapter Summary
She let Mu Mengyi temporarily forget the pain of her fallen dynasty, and also allowed Zhong Wu Shiyao to forget the suffering of being abandoned by her biological parents, as well as the grief of losing her adoptive parents. His lips moved silently, yet the killing intent in his voice rang clearly in Tan Yun’s ears— “Tan Yun… among the 600,000 disciples of the inner sect, who doesn’t know you’re trash?” “A toad relying on Shen Qingqiu’s reputation, only becoming a servant of the Alchemy lineage…...
Xue Ziyan was like a miraculous elixir, allowing people to forget their sorrow and pain for a moment.
She let Mu Mengyi temporarily forget the pain of her fallen dynasty,
and also allowed Zhong Wu Shiyao to forget the suffering of being abandoned by her biological parents, as well as the grief of losing her adoptive parents.
The 3 young women chased and played among the flowers.
Their beauty surpassed every blossom—so much so that even tens of thousands of flowers faded in comparison.
“Which one of you is Junior Sister Mu Mengyi?”
Suddenly, a gentle male voice descended from the sky.
The 3 stopped playing and looked up.
They saw a spirit boat flying from the distant horizon, arriving above Tan Yun’s head in the blink of an eye.
Tan Yun looked up and saw a young man in white standing on the boat.
The word “Beast” was clearly embroidered on his chest—he was a disciple of the Beast Soul lineage of the inner sect.
The young man stood with his hands behind his back, his demeanor refined like a scholar.
Yet, deep within his eyes was an unmistakable arrogance.
Mu Mengyi’s smile faded, returning to her usual cold composure.
“I am Mu Mengyi. May I ask what business Senior Brother has?”
When the man in white saw her face clearly, a flash of astonishment appeared in his eyes.
He then guided the spirit boat down, landing gracefully on the grass, and stepped forward with a polite smile.
“My name is Bai Xu, a direct disciple of the Chief of the Beast Soul lineage of the inner sect.”
“Our master has 3 core disciples. Now that you, as the final closed-door disciple, have arrived, I am your Senior Brother.”
Mu Mengyi smiled politely.
“Mengyi greets Senior Brother. May I ask what matter brings you here?”
Bai Xu smiled.
“Junior Sister, our Beast Soul lineage is located to the northwest, 600,000 li away from here. The journey is extremely far, and Master was worried you wouldn’t arrive within 10 days.”
“So he ordered me to bring a mid-grade spirit boat specifically to pick you up.”
“I see…” Mu Mengyi glanced at Tan Yun with a hint of reluctance before saying,
“Thank you, Senior Brother, but I can make it there within 10 days on my own. There is no need to trouble you.”
“Haha, you’re being too polite,” Bai Xu laughed. “You are my Junior Sister. There’s no need to be so formal with me in the future.”
After speaking, he glanced at Tan Yun, his eyes filled with deep disdain.
A mere servant disciple from the medicinal garden of the Alchemy lineage—how dare he involve himself with his Junior Sister?
“Thank you, Senior Brother, but I don’t wish to return yet,” Mu Mengyi said politely.
“When the 10 days are up, Tan Yun will personally escort me.”
Bai Xu suppressed his displeasure, maintaining a troubled expression.
“Junior Sister, this is Master’s order. I hope you won’t make things difficult for me.”
Mu Mengyi sighed softly and walked toward Tan Yun.
Standing on her toes, she gently kissed his forehead, her eyes filled with reluctance.
“Tan Yun, I’ll go with Senior Brother first.”
“Whoever settles down first can go find the other. Alright?”
“Alright.” Tan Yun wrapped an arm around her slender waist and whispered something in her ear.
Mu Mengyi’s face flushed slightly as she pushed him away.
“You bad man…”
She composed herself before turning to Bai Xu.
“Senior Brother, let’s go.”
“Please,” Bai Xu said with a slight bow.
Mu Mengyi leapt onto the spirit boat.
However… before Bai Xu boarded, he turned his back to her and cast a cold glance at Tan Yun.
His lips moved silently, yet the killing intent in his voice rang clearly in Tan Yun’s ears—
“Tan Yun… among the 600,000 disciples of the inner sect, who doesn’t know you’re trash?”
“A toad relying on Shen Qingqiu’s reputation, only becoming a servant of the Alchemy lineage… what right do you have to stand beside my Junior Sister?”
“I’ll give you a kind warning—if you dare to overreach again, I will make you disappear from this world forever!”
As his words ended, Bai Xu controlled the spirit boat and shot toward the western horizon, disappearing in an instant.
“Hmph… you dare threaten me?”
Tan Yun sneered inwardly, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.
“Bai Xu… I’ll remember you!”
“Tan Yun, what’s wrong? Why does your expression look so bad?”
Zhong Wu Shiyao frowned slightly, her face showing displeasure.
“Did Bai Xu say something to you?”
“It’s nothing—just a mad dog,” Tan Yun replied with a faint smile, his eyes filled with disdain.
“I’d say it’s more than a mad dog—it’s a beast in human skin!”
Xue Ziyan said angrily.
“I noticed it—he kept staring at Sister Mu with those lecherous eyes! If he dares make a move, I won’t even need brother-in-law to act—I’ll deal with him myself!”
Just as Tan Yun was about to respond—
Suddenly!
The space behind him trembled slightly.
An old man, about 90 years old, appeared out of thin air above the grass, letting out a soft chuckle.
“My dear disciple, who are you planning to deal with?”
Xue Ziyan immediately turned around. Upon recognizing him, she quickly knelt and saluted.
“Disciple Ziyan greets Master! Master, why are you here?”
The newcomer… was the Elder of the Five Elements lineage.
“Ziyan, you are my direct disciple. There’s no need to kneel anymore,”
he said gently, before continuing,
“I went to handle some matters in the outer sect and happened to run into you. Since we’ve met, come back with me.”
“Yes, Master,” Xue Ziyan stood up with a small smile, though a hint of reluctance showed in her eyes as she looked at Tan Yun.
“Brother-in-law, I’m leaving first—don’t forget to think about me!”
Tan Yun smiled and nodded.
“Alright, I’ll think of you every day.”
“That’s more like it!” Xue Ziyan laughed, then walked to stand beside the elder.
“Disciple Tan Yun and Zhong Wu Shiyao greet Elder,”
the two cupped their fists in salute, but did not kneel since they were not of the same lineage.
“Mhm, no need for formalities,”
the Five Elements Elder said, looking at Zhong Wu Shiyao with appreciation.
“Child, I’ve always had high expectations for you. Don’t disappoint me.”
“Thank you, Elder,” Zhong Wu Shiyao replied calmly.
Then he turned to Tan Yun, shaking his head slightly as he spoke in an encouraging tone:
“Tan Yun, although you possess a trash soul, do not be discouraged. As long as you are alive, there is always hope.”
“Being a menial disciple may not be honorable in the Huangfu Sect, but after 60 years, you will be allowed to return home.”
“At that time, at the very least, you will still be considered someone of status in your hometown.”
Hearing this, Tan Yun immediately recalled how he had once begged this man to help Xue Ziyan—only to be coldly refused.
His dissatisfaction toward the old man deepened further.
“Thank you for your concern, Elder. I will do my best,” Tan Yun replied flatly.
“Mhm.”
The elder smiled.
But at the same time, a cold voice transmitted directly into Tan Yun’s ears—
“Tan Yun, you have offended many people. As an elder, I advise you—know your place.”
“From now on… do not step into my Five Elements lineage. And even more so, do not approach Ziyan.”
“I do not wish for her to be dragged into the troubles caused by your enemies!”
His icy tone carried unquestionable authority—
“If you dare take even 1 step closer… don’t blame me for showing no mercy!”
