The Supreme Being Against Heaven
Chapter Summary
… Several hours later— Tan Yun and the two women arrived at “Huangfu Trading City.” They visited various shops, purchasing over 100 types of pills, magical weapons, and talismans suitable for cultivators in the “Spirit Embryo Realm” and the “Nascent Soul Realm.” After that, the three headed to the outer sect to meet Elder Shen Qingqiu. “Shiyao,” Mu Mengyi said softly, holding her hand, “you must never tell anyone about this.” “And also… over 3 years ago, after you took care of Tan Yun, he once t...

Although Mu Mengyi felt a trace of hesitation about sharing Tan Yun with another woman, when she thought of Zhong Wu Shiyao’s painful past and her gentle nature…
In the end—she smiled.
“I’ve said it before. A man as outstanding as you will surely be admired by many women in the future.”
“But… you must always have a place for me in your heart.”
“As for Shiyao…”
Mu Mengyi stood up and took Zhong Wu Shiyao’s hand, who had been lowering her head the whole time.
“I truly like having a younger sister like you.”
“Thank you, Sister Mu, for accepting me.”
Zhong Wu Shiyao looked at her gratefully, and soon the two began chatting warmly, growing closer.
At last—
they both turned to look at Tan Yun and said in unison:
“From now on, no more women! If there are any—our permission comes first!”
“Uh…” Tan Yun rolled his eyes helplessly.
“Sister Mu, don’t you notice anything different about me?”
Zhong Wu Shiyao held Mu Mengyi’s hand, smiling playfully.
“I think there is…” Mu Mengyi frowned slightly.
“But I can’t quite tell what’s different…”
Suddenly—
she froze.
She stared at Zhong Wu Shiyao in disbelief, her voice trembling:
“What… what happened? It’s been over 2 years—how do you look even younger now?”
“You look just like when we were in the outer sect… like you’re only 16 or 17 years old!”
Mu Mengyi was completely shocked.
“Hurry and tell me—what did you do?” she asked, both envious and curious.
Tan Yun then took out 1 “Supreme Youth-Preserving Pill” and handed it to her, explaining everything that had happened in the Eternal Land.
Strangely—
After hearing about Tan Yun’s unmatched pill-refining skills, Mu Mengyi didn’t show even the slightest shock.
There was only… deeper admiration and love in her eyes.
She glanced at Zhong Wu Shiyao, then turned to Tan Yun, as if she wanted to say something—
But Tan Yun spoke first:
“There are too many people here. Once we leave the sect, I’ll tell her about my identity.”
“My identity?” Zhong Wu Shiyao asked, puzzled.
She remembered—
Over 3 years ago, during the trial at the Fallen God Valley, after Tan Yun saved Xue Ziyan and was severely injured, she was the one who took care of him.
And afterward—
he gave her the “Nine Heavens Divine Sword Canon.”
Since then, she had always felt… that Tan Yun carried a secret no one else knew.
Meanwhile, Mu Mengyi took the Supreme Youth-Preserving Pill.
Not long after—
She returned to the appearance she had when she first met Tan Yun in Falling Star City… a stunning young woman in red.
…
Several hours later—
Tan Yun and the two women arrived at “Huangfu Trading City.”
They visited various shops, purchasing over 100 types of pills, magical weapons, and talismans suitable for cultivators in the “Spirit Embryo Realm” and the “Nascent Soul Realm.”
After that, the three headed to the outer sect to meet Elder Shen Qingqiu.
Since Mu Mengyi had acknowledged him as her grandfather, he naturally became Tan Yun’s “grandfather” as well.
When Shen Qingqiu saw the three of them—
his smile never faded.
Especially when he noticed Mu Mengyi had reached the “Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul Realm,” he was overjoyed.
After talking for about 1 hour—
A disciple came to report that Shen Suping wanted to see him.
Seeing that Shen Qingqiu had matters to attend to in the inner sect’s pill lineage, Tan Yun said he would first take the two women back to his hometown.
Shen Qingqiu then escorted the three out of the “Huangfu Secret Realm.”
Watching them leave, he muttered to himself with a smile:
“That brat… he’s already taken my granddaughter, and now he’s winning over Shiyao too.”
It was clear—
he had seen through the relationship between the three of them completely.
…
Tan Yun and the two women boarded the spirit boat
and headed toward the outer regions of the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range.
Along the way—
Mu Mengyi told Zhong Wu Shiyao about Tan Yun’s “countless cycles of reincarnation.”
When she heard it—
Zhong Wu Shiyao’s beautiful eyes filled with shock,
and when she thought about everything he had endured…
her heart ached deeply.
“Shiyao,” Mu Mengyi said softly, holding her hand,
“you must never tell anyone about this.”
“And also… over 3 years ago, after you took care of Tan Yun, he once told me…”
“That he had always liked you.”
“But because he needed revenge, and couldn’t give you a peaceful life, he kept those feelings buried in his heart.”
Hearing this—
Zhong Wu Shiyao looked at Tan Yun and asked softly:
“Is what Sister Mu said… true?”
“Mm.” Tan Yun nodded.
In the next instant—
Zhong Wu Shiyao stepped forward, hugged him tightly, and said in a playful, teasing tone:
“I knew it! A beauty like me—how could you not like me? Hmph~”
…
The spirit boat carried the 3 of them soaring through the sky.
Tan Yun had planned to “talk about life” with the two girls—
but was firmly rejected.
They insisted:
“You can touch us… only on our wedding night!”
Tan Yun was left speechless,
but he still respected their decision.
With 2 girls together, shyness was only natural.
As for that kind of thing… he’d deal with it one at a time later.
Thinking of this—
a sly smile curled on his lips.
“You pervert…”
“You shameless wolf…”
Their teasing, half-shy voices echoed across the boat from time to time.
Seeing how united the two of them were,
he knew there was no way his “plan” would succeed.
So Tan Yun moved to the other side of the boat,
letting his thoughts drift toward future plans.
First—return home to visit his family.
Then go back to the sect, appear as Shen Suping’s “master,” and head to Bingqing Immortal Mountain to check whether the “fire seeds” given by Tantai Zhongde had been entrusted to Shen Suping.
Next—bring Shen Suping back home to treat her father’s illness.
And finally—
participate in the grand competition of the 9 inner sect lineages
to secure a spot in the Eternal Land.
And search for the remaining Primordial Divine Swords of other elements…
…
Several hours later—
night slowly descended.
Within the Huangfu Sacred Sect—
on Dream Immortal Mountain.
For half a day,
the Beast Soul Lineage Master had yet to receive news that his beloved son had “crippled Tan Yun.”
Suspicious—
he personally went to Mu Mengyi’s immortal mountain.
And the moment he saw—
Wu Feixiang’s body, tortured until his tendons were torn and bones pulled out…
the rage in his chest nearly exploded!
When he discovered that his son’s “spiritual pool” had been destroyed—
his vision went dark!
Tears streamed down his face as he woke his son.
“My son…”
“Father…” Wu Feixiang’s voice was weak.
“Waaah…”
“Who did this to you? Tell me—who reduced you to this state?!”
“Father… Tan Yun… kill him… avenge me… waaah…”
When the Beast Soul Lineage Master saw that
even “that part” of his son had been destroyed—
he threw his head back and roared!
“TAN YUN! YOU BASTARD! HOW DARE YOU DO THIS TO MY WU FAMILY!”
“I’LL KILL YOU! I SWEAR I’LL KILL YOU!!”
His heart felt like it was being torn apart.
He had never imagined—
that Tan Yun would be so ruthless… as to leave his son without descendants!
After settling his son—
the Beast Soul Lineage Master rushed straight toward the Pill Lineage, killing intent surging into the heavens!
He stormed into Bingqing Palace, confronted Shen Suping, and demanded that she hand Tan Yun over!
But—
did he really think it would be that easy?
Thinking of the honor Tan Yun had brought to the sect,
Shen Suping looked at him coldly—
and directly ordered him to be “thrown out” of the Pill Lineage!
The Beast Soul Lineage Master was so furious he nearly fainted,
leaving behind threats before departing empty-handed!
…
After he left—
Shen Qingqiu went up to Bingqing Immortal Mountain
to ask why she had summoned him.
Shen Suping thanked him
for introducing Tan Yun to her.
Originally, she had planned to visit him personally in the outer sect,
but feared missing him if her master came looking—
so she had someone summon him instead, even preparing to restore his name to the clan.
However—
when Shen Suping heard from Shen Qingqiu that
Tan Yun had taken 2 women back to his hometown—
her expression changed instantly!
“This is bad!”
she said anxiously.
“Tan Yun has too many enemies… what if he’s ambushed on the way?”
