The Supreme Being Against Heaven
Chapter Summary
“Senior Sister Zhong Wu…” “This matter is between me and Tan Yun.” “Please do not interfere!” “Hm?” After stopping his fleeing steps, Tan Yun turned back to look at Ye Tian standing before Zhong Wu Siyao, whose expression had suddenly become unusually serious. “Senior Sister Zhong Wu is right.” “Under normal circumstances, even if there were 10 of me, I still wouldn’t be your match.” “But now you are seriously injured…” “What do I have to fear!” Zhong Wu Siyao’s expression did not change. “Fine!...
Ye Tian’s sword slashed down from the sky, firmly locking onto Tan Yun as its target!
The immense pressure made Tan Yun feel as if he were bound in chains—unable to escape and unable to dodge!
“Roar!”
Tan Yun let out a low roar like a ferocious beast. He instantly activated the Primordial Divine Step and swung his sword upward to block the attack!
“Clang!”
The two swords collided. The deafening sound of metal clashing rang out as sparks scattered everywhere!
Ye Tian, who was hovering low in the air, was pushed back several feet by the recoil.
Meanwhile, as Tan Yun was falling toward the ground, his pupils suddenly contracted!
Because—
a tiny crack, almost impossible to see, had appeared on the high-grade spirit weapon flying sword in his hand!
Normally, even though a high-grade spirit weapon was 1 level inferior to a top-grade spirit weapon,
a top-grade spirit weapon would never be able to crack a high-grade spirit weapon with just 1 strike!
Unless there was only 1 condition—
the wielder of the sword was strong enough!
“Hahaha! Break for me!”
Ye Tian roared with killing intent, suddenly gripping his sword with 2 hands.
His body shot downward like lightning, slashing toward Tan Yun’s head!
Tan Yun was alarmed. He quickly raised his sword to block while twisting his head aside,
hoping to avoid the fate of having his sword shattered and himself killed!
“CLANG… SLASH!”
Everything happened exactly as Ye Tian expected!
The giant sword in his hand shattered Tan Yun’s long sword into pieces!
Then it dragged a pitch-black streak of sword light and slashed toward Tan Yun’s head again!
“Shhk!”
Tan Yun desperately dodged to the left!
Blood splattered into the air!
Although he avoided the fate of having his head split in half,
the razor-sharp black blade sliced across the bone of his right shoulder!
A long strip of flesh from his right arm was cut away!
Revealing a section of white bone!
Even though the pain in his right arm was so intense it was almost unbearable,
Tan Yun completely forgot about the important announcement that the Chief Outer Sect Elder would make in 1 hour!
In his mind, there was only 1 belief—
he had to escape alive, no matter what!
And after escaping…
he would return for revenge!
At the same time, Tan Yun felt extremely unwilling to accept this outcome.
If he had a top-grade spirit weapon as well,
perhaps… he might have had a chance to fight Ye Tian to the very end!
After falling from the air,
Tan Yun used the Primordial Divine Step and fled like a madman!
His figure flickered and vanished again and again.
Every time he reappeared, he was already 15 zhang away!
His speed was pushed to its absolute limit!
“Tan Yun! Stop struggling! You can’t escape!”
Ye Tian landed on the ground and began chasing like a crazed demon!
His 3-meter tall body overflowed with spiritual power!
Despite his large size, he was as agile as an ape.
Every time he leaped forward, he could move 16 zhang!
After chasing for 200 feet,
Ye Tian appeared behind Tan Yun at a distance of only 30 feet.
Tan Yun’s face twisted fiercely.
He had been forced into a dead end!
He even considered burning his soul to fight Ye Tian to the death!
If Tan Yun still had even the slightest hope of defending himself,
he would never choose to use such a method!
He had far too many enemies!
Once he burned his soul,
for at least 1 full month, he would be unable to recover!
If enemies attacked during that time,
the only thing waiting for him would be—
death!
Even a Level 1 Nascent Beast
could easily kill him!
But when faced with death,
he had no other choice!
Just as Tan Yun was about to use that secret technique—
suddenly!
A figure in white rushed over at incredible speed!
Along with a cold female voice filled with killing intent.
“Ye Tian!”
“Tan Yun is my friend!”
“If you don’t stop now… don’t blame me for showing you no mercy!”
“Zhong Wu Siyao!”
Ye Tian’s expression changed drastically the moment he recognized the newcomer!
He immediately stopped in his tracks.
His gaze fixed on the girl in white standing in front of him, shielding Tan Yun behind her.
Within his eyes,
there was an unmistakable trace of wariness.
Ye Tian spoke with restrained irritation.
“Senior Sister Zhong Wu…”
“This matter is between me and Tan Yun.”
“Please do not interfere!”
“Hm?”
After stopping his fleeing steps, Tan Yun turned back to look at Ye Tian standing before Zhong Wu Siyao, whose expression had suddenly become unusually serious.
A doubt rose in his heart.
Could it be that she had an extraordinary background?
Or perhaps… her strength was even greater than Ye Tian’s?
As Tan Yun pondered, he looked at Zhong Wu Siyao’s slender back.
Suddenly, he felt a surge of warmth rising from the depths of his heart.
Then he noticed—
beneath her feet, a pool of blood was slowly spreading.
And the blood continued to flow more and more!
Without needing to think much, Tan Yun immediately understood.
Zhong Wu Siyao, whose body was covered in wounds and whose spiritual power in her spiritual pool was reduced to only 1/10,
had rushed over despite knowing she was not Ye Tian’s match.
Along the way, her wounds had torn open again,
so blood kept flowing down both of her legs without stopping!
And he knew even more clearly—
the reason Zhong Wu Siyao acted as if she did not fear Ye Tian
was to save his life!
Ye Tian snorted coldly.
“Hmph… show you no mercy?”
Then he looked at Zhong Wu Siyao’s pale face before his gaze stopped on the bloodstain beneath her feet.
His heart suddenly sank.
His gaze grew colder and colder.
“Senior Sister Zhong Wu is right.”
“Under normal circumstances, even if there were 10 of me, I still wouldn’t be your match.”
“But now you are seriously injured…”
“What do I have to fear!”
Zhong Wu Siyao’s expression did not change.
She did not reveal the slightest emotion.
She spoke coldly,
“Is that so?”
“Then… go ahead and try.”
Seeing Zhong Wu Siyao standing in front, protecting Tan Yun,
Ye Tian suddenly hesitated.
He was not certain whether Zhong Wu Siyao was truly seriously injured!
Zhong Wu Siyao glanced at him coldly.
“What? Not daring to make a move?”
“If you don’t dare… then get lost!”
Ye Tian looked at Tan Yun standing behind her.
His fists clenched tightly, producing cracking sounds.
In the end, he loosened his fists, took a deep breath, and said,
“Senior Sister Zhong Wu.”
“The reason I won’t make a move against you today is not because I’m afraid of you.”
“It’s because Senior Brother Linghu Changkong has always admired you.”
“He once instructed me that no matter the situation, I must never become your enemy.”
“I hope you understand.”
The moment Zhong Wu Siyao heard the name Linghu Changkong, a trace of disgust flashed through her eyes.
She snorted softly.
“Hmph…”
“According to what you said, should I go thank Linghu Changkong then?”
After speaking, she no longer paid attention to Ye Tian.
She immediately turned around.
When she saw Tan Yun’s injured right arm, her expression filled with worry.
Her voice softened.
“Sorry I came late… that’s why you got injured.”
“Fortunately, you’re still alright now.”
“Let’s go back.”
Tan Yun nodded slightly.
“Mm.”
Then he walked to Zhong Wu Siyao’s side.
The two walked side by side, heading toward the teleportation array that was 300 feet away.
Behind them,
Ye Tian stared at Tan Yun’s back with blazing fury in his eyes.
He roared like a maddened bear.
“Tan Yun!”
“Remember this well!”
“This time you were just lucky!”
“Next time… I will kill you!”
Tan Yun suddenly stopped walking.
Then he turned around,
narrowing his eyes at Ye Tian.
His voice was firm.
“Fine!”
“I’ll give you the chance!”
“According to the sect’s rules, if disciples have a grudge that cannot be resolved—”
“they may ascend the Life-and-Death Arena to settle it until one dies!”
“I challenge you!”
“In 3 months, we will settle this in a life-and-death battle!”
“And tell Linghu Changkong as well.”
“Don’t come bother me again until then!”
Hearing this, Ye Tian laughed coldly.
“Don’t think I don’t know your plan.”
“With your talent, in 3 months, there’s a high chance you will break through to Level 9.”
“At that time, I’m afraid I won’t be your match anymore!”
“You’re truly cunning—keep dreaming!”
Then he spoke in a harsh tone.
“But I can accept the challenge in 1 month!”
“1 month is enough time for you to heal your injuries!”
“I’ll give you 1 month only!”
“Even 1 day more is unacceptable!”
“If you don’t agree, forget it!”
“Junior Brother Tan, don’t agree!”
Before Tan Yun could speak, Zhong Wu Siyao hurriedly stopped him.
Tan Yun smiled faintly.
“Thank you for your concern, Senior Sister.”
“I know what I’m doing.”
Then he turned to look at Ye Tian.
“I can agree.”
“But you must promise that Linghu Changkong will not trouble me again for the entire 1 month!”
Ye Tian was so pleased he could barely hide it.
“Deal!”
“I promise!”
Deep inside, he was secretly overjoyed.
This way, he could go back and report to Senior Brother Linghu!
In his mind,
1 month would only be enough for Tan Yun to recover from his injuries.
As for breaking through to Level 9…
even if someone beat him to death,
he would never believe it!
