The Supreme Being Against Heaven
Chapter Summary
“Young Mistress… have you advanced from a Saint-level top alchemy master to a Low-level Top Alchemy Master already?” “Mm.” Sect Master Bingqing nodded slightly, her gaze icy. She persuaded him to let me train in the Huangfu Sect Alchemy Lineage 60 years ago, hoping I would avenge my father!” “30 years ago, I did not disappoint my mother and became the head of the internal alchemy lineage…” As she spoke, Sect Master Bingqing could not contain her emotions, shaking her head in sorrow, crying aloud...
The eyes of Sect Master Bingqing shone with confidence.
“Could it be that I, a top alchemy master, would fail to detect the Memory-Erasing Pill that Lu Wu just swallowed?”
“What!” Shen Qingfeng and Shen Qingxiu exclaimed in shock, eyes wide.
“Young Mistress… have you advanced from a Saint-level top alchemy master to a Low-level Top Alchemy Master already?”
“Mm.” Sect Master Bingqing nodded slightly, her gaze icy.
“I advanced just yesterday, at 7–9 AM. Had it not been today, I would have been completely deceived by Lu Wu.”
“Lu Wu’s father is the 4th Elder of the Xian Alchemy Sect. I still cannot touch him; if I did, I would certainly make him bleed right here!”
“We must find a way to eliminate this villain!”
Shen Qingfeng immediately nodded in agreement.
The two hurriedly knelt before Young Mistress Bingqing with joy:
“Underlings congratulate you, Young Mistress, on advancing to a Low-level Top Alchemy Master!”
“Rise.”
After they stood, Sect Master Bingqing spoke respectfully:
“Young Mistress, according to our alchemy lineage’s advancement system, you are now a Low-level Top Alchemy Master. Why not report to Jia Mengtang of the Xian Sect? Then you could become an Elder of the alchemy lineage of the sect as well!”
Hearing this, Sect Master Bingqing seemed to remember something. Her beautiful eyes glistened red with tears.
“Qingfeng, Qingxiu… even though I am not yet 80 years old, I know how that event unfolded.”
The words “80 years ago” made Shen Qingfeng and Shen Qingxiu furious; their faces twisted, hands shaking as if their bodies aged decades.
“Young Mistress… when did you just realize this?”
“30 years ago, I became the head of the internal alchemy lineage. My mother told me this before her final breath.”
As Sect Master Bingqing spoke, tears streamed down her face.
“My mother held my hand and said that my father had once been the Grand Elder of the Alchemy Lineage of the Huangfu Sacred Sect, and his alchemy skills surpassed all others in the lineage!”
“But… but! My father was slandered by Gongsun Yangchun, the former 2nd Elder of the Dan Lineage of the Sacred Sect, causing his cultivation to be destroyed, and he was expelled from the Huangfu Sect.”
“And Gongsun Yangchun seized the position and became the head of the alchemy lineage instead!”
Sect Master Bingqing bit her lip until it bled, her vision blurred by tears.
“As a child, I did not understand why my parents argued about whether I should join the Huangfu Sect when I grew up.”
“My mother only told me the truth before her last breath.”
“Because my father loved me, he did not want me to seek revenge, only wishing for me to live a peaceful life.”
“But my mother was different… she loved my father deeply and could not bear the injustice done to him. She persuaded him to let me train in the Huangfu Sect Alchemy Lineage 60 years ago, hoping I would avenge my father!”
“30 years ago, I did not disappoint my mother and became the head of the internal alchemy lineage…”
As she spoke, Sect Master Bingqing could not contain her emotions, shaking her head in sorrow, crying aloud:
“But when I returned home and wanted to tell my mother the good news, she was critically ill. That was when she revealed everything to me.”
“That night, before her final breath, she could not speak anymore, but I will never forget the look in her eyes…”
Sect Master Bingqing shook her shoulders repeatedly, heart aching as if torn apart.
“Qingfeng… do you know? My mother’s eyes told me just two words—‘Revenge!’”
Shen Qingfeng and Shen Qingxiu could no longer hold back and wept freely.
Sect Master Bingqing closed her eyes, letting clear tears flow over her eyelids, reflecting on her beautiful face full of vengeance.
“Thus, for the past 30 years, ever since I became the head, I have studied the alchemy lineage with all my dedication, all for a single purpose… to become an Elder of the alchemy lineage of the Xian Sect after advancing to a Top Alchemy Master!”
“I have sworn for 30 years to slowly advance through the internal alchemy lineage, then to the Xian Sect, and eventually the Sacred Sect, to reclaim the position of Head of the Alchemy Lineage from my father, and bring shame upon Gongsun Yangchun until he wishes to die!”
“But now… just as I am about to become an Elder of the alchemy lineage of the Xian Sect, the Rebirth Jade Grass dies! No matter what, I must find a way to overcome this crisis and succeed in entering the Xian Sect’s alchemy lineage!”
After speaking, Sect Master Bingqing took a deep breath.
“Qingfeng, Qingxiu… I am tired and wish to be alone for a while. You two may leave.”
“Understood, Young Mistress.”
After Shen Qingfeng and Shen Qingxiu left, Sect Master Bingqing knelt down, crying in pain.
“Mother… I am so terrified. I cannot escape this crisis. If Jia Mengtang’s condition worsens and someone comes seeking the Rebirth Jade Grass, what will I do?”
“Mother… I asked my father two days ago. He said there is no other celestial medicine to replace the Rebirth Jade Grass in making the Jia Rebirth Elixir.”
“Mother… if you are watching over me from heaven, please protect me! I must not fall victim to this… otherwise, I will never be able to avenge!”
Shen Suping’s voice echoed through the Bingqing Palace for a long time, spreading despair and pain throughout.
…
Time passed: 5 days.
The ice-capped mountain looked like a fairy tale.
Sect Master Bingqing bowed deeply to a ninety-year-old man:
“Suping did not realize that the 3rd Elder had arrived, so I could not welcome you properly. Please forgive me.”
The elderly man had a ruddy face and fluffy white hair. He was Zhou Wiyun, the 3rd Elder of the Dan Lineage of the Xian Sect.
Zhou Wiyun’s lecherous eyes appraised Bingqing’s slender figure. He swallowed, then chuckled softly:
“Suping, let this old man have a chance! I will cherish you like the ultimate treasure.”
With that, he opened his arms to embrace Sect Master Bingqing.
“Fwu!”
Sect Master Bingqing sprang backward 3 zhang (approx. 9 meters), her gaze icy toward Zhou Wiyun.
“3rd Elder, please compose yourself. If you behave like this, I will have Jia Mengtang administer justice!”
“Hmph!” Zhou Wiyun’s old face darkened.
“Suping… this old man has been with countless women, but you are the only one. If you don’t know your limits, you will regret it later!”
“3rd Elder, if there is nothing else, I shall take my leave.”
Sect Master Bingqing spun and walked into Bingqing Palace.
“What a cute girl… with such a personality, this old man likes her very much! Hahaha!”
Zhou Wiyun laughed, then floated into the air, swooping over the Xian Ice-clear Mountain, and shouted loudly:
“Head Shen, obey this old man’s orders!”
Sect Master Bingqing’s face remained pale and icy. She turned, bowed, and said:
“The subordinate is ready.”
“Jia Mengtang’s condition has worsened. After discussion, the Xian Sect alchemy elders decided to begin preparing the Soul Summoning Elixir internally within 1 month,” Zhou Wiyun announced confidently.
“Therefore, you have 1 month to prepare the following ingredients:
7th-grade alchemy – Ice Orchid Petals of Turtle Breath
9th-grade alchemy – Spirit Stone Ghost Lotus
3,000-year-old Lava Spirit Herb”
“Oh yes… and the five Rebirth Jade Grass flowers I ordered to be planted previously. This old man will come to collect them in 1 month. If the herbs are not ready and the preparation of the Jia Mengtang Elixir is delayed, even a hundred lives will not survive!”
Before finishing his words, Zhou Wiyun floated through the air and disappeared in an instant.
Only Sect Master Bingqing remained, hopeless, walking alone into Bingqing Palace amidst the emptiness…
