The Supreme Being Against Heaven

--Translated by likesnovel--

Over the next **3 days**—

The Tan Family held an extremely lively grand banquet.

News of Tan Yun’s return spread throughout **Wangyue Town**.

Leaders of hundreds of families in the city
came bearing precious gifts—without even needing an invitation.

Each of them warmly called Tan Yun “nephew,”
as if they were his close relatives.

Moreover—

Many families even tried to form **marriage alliances**,
offering their unmarried daughters to him.

However—

The moment they saw **Mu Mengyi** and **Zhong Wu Shiyao**,
the 2 peerless beauties who could topple nations—

And learned they were already the Tan Family’s future daughters-in-law—

Everyone immediately backed off!

Because in their eyes—

“Their own daughters… couldn’t even compare!”

And they believed—

Tan Yun would have **no interest at all**.

What they didn’t know was—

Tan Yun… was not a playboy.

No matter how beautiful a woman was,
he would not be easily moved.

The woman who could truly win his heart—

Had to be someone who had gone through **life-and-death trials** with him,
someone kind-hearted and strong in virtue.

He… never chose love based on appearance alone.

---

During these **3 days**—

Tan Yun handed over all the pills and treasures
he had purchased from the Huangfu Sacred Sect to Feng Jingru.

This included high-grade pills like **Helingtai** and **Taihun**.

Feng Jingru, Tan Feng, and Tan Changchun
were overjoyed beyond words!

Because with these pills—

They now had a chance to break through to the **Nascent Soul Realm**,
and extend their lifespan in the near future!

Moreover—

Many of the pills could also be distributed
to the family guards to strengthen overall power.

Of course—

Tan Yun also gave **3 Supreme Youth-Preserving Pills**
to his father, mother, and grandfather.

The results—

Were astonishing!

Feng Jingru—

Her white hair completely disappeared,
and the wrinkles on her face faded away.

From a **40-year-old woman**—
she now looked like she was in her **30s**!

Tan Feng—

From a man nearing **50**,
he became a middle-aged man who looked **10 years younger**!

As for Tan Changchun—

He burst into laughter before swallowing the pill.

From a **90-year-old elder**—
he transformed into a man who looked around **60**!

The atmosphere in the family was filled with joy…

But no matter what—

“Parting” would eventually come.

---

Under the moonlight—

The Tan Family Estate was brightly lit.

Feng Jingru, Tan Feng, Tan Changchun,
along with all the servants and guards—

Came out to see Tan Yun off.

“A mother’s thread… sewing clothes for her son who travels far.”

Before leaving—

Feng Jingru personally sewed clothes for him with great care,
afraid he might return late.

She stuffed several sets of clothes into Tan Yun’s hands,
her eyes brimming with tears.

“Take good care of yourself. Don’t make your mother worry.”

Thud!

Tan Yun dropped to his knees,
nodding firmly.

“Mother, Father, Grandfather—please rest assured. I will take care of myself!”

“Good.”

Feng Jingru helped him up,

Then reminded him seriously—

“Don’t let Shiyao and Mengyi suffer because of you.”

“Having 2 such good girls by your side is your blessing!”

“And you are not allowed to flirt with other women. Do you understand?”

“I understand!”
Tan Yun replied immediately.

“That’s more like it.”
Feng Jingru smiled in satisfaction.

Then she looked at the 2 young women,
her eyes filled with expectation.

“You’re about to leave… can you call me ‘Mother’?”

Mu Mengyi blushed slightly,
then nodded shyly.

“Mother, Father, Grandfather… please take good care of yourselves. We’ll come back to visit.”

Zhong Wu Shiyao pressed her lips together and said sweetly—

“Mother, don’t worry. Sister Mengyi and I will take good care of Tan Yun.”

“Good… good… good!”

Feng Jingru smiled happily,
pulling both girls closer.

Then she said lovingly—

“If that Tan Yun dares to bully you—”

“Remember, come tell Mother!”

“I’ll deal with him… I’ll even break his legs if I have to!”

The two girls nodded, their faces glowing with happiness.

“Father, Mother, Grandfather… we’ll be taking our leave now,” Tan Yun said, cupping his fists in respect.

He then turned toward the guards of the Tan family and spoke, word by word, firm and resolute:

“Protect the Tan family well. I… will never treat you unfairly in the future!”

More than **100 guards** roared in unison, their voices like thunder:

“Young Master, rest assured—we understand!”

The steward immediately shouted:

“Repeat what the Young Master said! Louder!”

In an instant—

A deafening roar shook the air:

“Whoever dares offend the Tan family—
even if they flee to the ends of the earth, they will be slain!”

The declaration echoed across Wangyue City, shaking the hearts of **hundreds of clan leaders** and **hundreds of thousands of townspeople** who had come to see Tan Yun off.

But just then—

A cold, mocking laugh rang out from the sky.

“Hahaha! A mere backwater family dares speak so arrogantly?”

“Today, I’ll wipe out the Tan family—let’s see how you plan to kill me!”

As the voice faded—

A **60-year-old** man stood atop a flying sword, hovering above the Tan residence.

His gaze was icy, looking down at everyone as if they were prey.

“**Spirit Refinement Realm, 9th level!**” Tan Yun exclaimed, his expression changing instantly.

“Da Hei! Protect the family!”

“ROAR!!”

A thunderous lion’s roar shook the heavens.

The Golden Dragon Lion burst out from the spirit beast pouch, transforming into its massive **100-zhang** form!

Its golden wings spread wide, shielding everyone in the Tan family beneath it.

“Hm? A **Level 3 spirit beast in its growth stage?**” The old man showed a hint of surprise.

Tan Yun stared at him with extreme vigilance.

“Who are you?! Why are you targeting my Tan family?!”

“Who I am doesn’t matter,” the old man replied coldly.

“You only need to know—I'm the one who will exterminate your entire family!”

In the next instant—

He raised his sword and pointed it toward the sky!

A gigantic sword qi, stretching **hundreds of zhang**, condensed in midair!

Seeing this—

The clan leaders and townspeople outside panicked and fled in chaos.

No one had expected—

Such a terrifying expert… to target the Tan family!

At that moment—

Tan Yun’s heart burned with urgency!

If he were alone—

He could immediately command the Golden Dragon Lion to fight!

But now—

It had to protect everyone.

If even one strike got through—

The Tan family would be wiped out in an instant!

Whoosh!

Tan Yun grabbed Mu Mengyi and Zhong Wu Shiyao, leaping onto the lion’s back.

“Da Hei! Get everyone out of here!”

“Trying to run?” the old man sneered. “Dream on!”

But just as he was about to strike—

A voice suddenly echoed from the sky, filled with disdain:

“With me here… a mere **9th-level Spirit Refinement ant** like you dares touch the Tan family?”

The old man’s face instantly turned pale.

“Y-you… who are you?!”

“The one who will kill you.”

As the words fell—

A streak of white light shot down from the sky!

Slash!

It swept across the old man’s neck in an instant!

“Y—”

Before he could finish—

Blood sprayed into the air!

His head separated from his body!

The headless corpse crashed to the ground before the Golden Dragon Lion.

Silence.

The entire courtyard fell into dead silence.

Tan Yun cupped his fists and looked up respectfully.

“Thank you, Senior, for your help! May I know your name?”

A ripple distorted the space before him.

Then—

A **90+ year-old** man appeared out of thin air.

Tan Yun couldn’t see through his cultivation at all.

But one thing was certain—

He was at least at the **Great Perfection of the Spirit Refinement Realm**… or even higher!

At the same time—

Tan Yun felt that this old man… looked strangely familiar.

Suddenly—

Something clicked in his mind!

He quickly bowed and said:

“Could it be… that you are Elder De’s elder brother?”

Tan Yun knew—

Tantai Zhongde had an older brother,

the one who managed the **Huangfu Auction House** in the sect’s trading city.

And the old man before him—

bore an uncanny resemblance to Tantai Zhongde!
