The Supreme Being Against Heaven

At the same time…

### Wind Thunder Lineage

The Wind Thunder Daoist Master looked at Du Chaojun and Gu Yishan in front of him. He let out a long sigh before speaking slowly.

“Remember this carefully. Tomorrow’s matches—if you encounter Tan Yun, Mu Mengyi, Ke Xinyi, Kang Siyuan, Jun Buping, Xiao Qingxuan, Shangguan Bingbing, or Huangfu Tingfeng… immediately choose to surrender.”

“Eh…” Du Chaojun scratched his round head, muttering in dissatisfaction. “Master… shouldn’t we at least try fighting first? If we don’t try, how would we know the outcome?”

“You talk too much!” the Daoist Master snapped, glaring at him. “If you stayed silent, no one would think you were mute!”

“Do you understand what I’m saying?”

He continued in a stern voice.

“Do you see it? In this competition, Tan Yun, Mu Mengyi, Ke Xinyi, and Kang Siyuan are all ‘dark horses.’ Their strength far exceeds yours!”

“Especially Kang Siyuan and Tan Yun… those two are extremely dangerous…”

### Beast Soul Lineage

Shi Changqing and Murong Hong summoned Chen Song.

“Greetings, Sect Master. Greetings, Grand Elder.” Chen Song knelt respectfully.

“Rise,” Shi Changqing said, helping him up. “We have already discussed this with your grandfather.”

“Tomorrow, if you encounter Lu Ren, Gu Yishan, or Sizhi Yanyan… fight with full strength.”

“But if you meet anyone else—withdraw immediately.”

Chen Song paused slightly, then lowered his head.

“This disciple… obeys.”

“Good.” Shi Changqing nodded and turned to leave.

After the soundproof barrier closed, Chen Song spoke in a low voice.

“Grandfather… I have disappointed you.”

“I wanted to avenge my brother… to kill Tan Yun and Mu Mengyi. But I know very well—I am not their match.”

Murong Hong remained silent for a moment before speaking with a deep gaze.

“This is not your fault.”

“Your brother once had feelings for Mu Mengyi when he was still in the outer sect, but in the end, he died at the hands of Tan Yun… and that cursed pair.”

“This grudge… will one day be settled in the Eternal Immortal Domain.”

“Of course, unless they die tomorrow on the Dragon Taming Platform first.”

### Five-Spirit Unity Lineage

“I object!”

Sizhi Yanyan glared at her master, clearly displeased.

“Besides my brother-in-law, even Sister Mengyi, I don’t think I would lose to. As for the others… those weaklings don’t scare me at all!”

“You are being ridiculous!” the Five Spirits Master trembled in anger.

“Sizhi Yanyan! I am doing this for your own good, do you not understand?!”

“Tan Yun has already killed the grandson of the Holy Soul Elder, along with three of his disciples!”

“Especially Kang Siyuan—he is extremely ruthless!”

“If you encounter those people, do you really think you will survive?!”

“I will say it again—forget about ranking in the top 8!”

“If you persist tomorrow, I will expel you from the sect!”

After speaking, the Five Spirits Master vanished from the soundproof barrier.

Sizhi Yanyan stood there stunned for a moment before muttering unhappily.

“Sigh… he never lets people finish speaking…”

She turned and walked toward the Danmei disciples.

At that moment, “Da Niao,” who was boasting to the Alchemy Herb Garden disciples, saw her approaching and quickly greeted her.

“Sis Yanyan! You’re here! Are you here to see Brother Tan—”

*Smack! Smack! Smack!*

Sizhi Yanyan placed her hands on her hips and glared at him.

“Sis? Who are you calling sis!”

“I took a high-grade Youth Rejuvenation Pill from my brother-in-law two days ago. I’m at my most beautiful age right now!”

“And you still dare call me sis?!”

Da Niao quickly smiled awkwardly.

“Sis Yanyan… I… I—”

“Still calling me that?!”

“S-sorry! Senior Sister Yanyan! I spoke wrongly!”

“Hmph!”

Sizhi Yanyan turned away and asked coldly:

“Where are my sister and brother-in-law?”

Da Niao swallowed nervously before replying carefully.

“They… were summoned by the Sect Master…”

On another side of the mountain peak, inside a soundproof barrier…

Shen Qingfeng, Shen Qingqiu, and Shen Wende stood respectfully behind. At the front was Shen Subing.

In front of her stood Tan Yun and Mu Mengyi, standing side by side.

Shen Subing looked at the two of them, her brows slightly furrowed, before speaking calmly.

“Today, you’ve all seen how the peak experts from each lineage fight.”

“I’ll ask you directly… are you confident you can win?”

She paused slightly, then continued.

“Speak honestly. I already considered this beforehand. If you can win, that would naturally be best. If not, it doesn’t matter.”

“You are the hope of my Alchemy Lineage. I do not want you to lose anything just for the sake of competing for the Dragon Taming Rankings top 8. Do you understand?”

Upon hearing this, Mu Mengyi bowed slightly and replied firmly:

“Disciple understands. My heart… aside from Tan Yun, I fear no one.”

Tan Yun added calmly:

“Reporting to Sect Master, I already said two days ago—I will take the championship, and I will accomplish it.”

“Even if it’s not me in the end… I believe Mu Mengyi will stand at the very top instead.”

Shen Subing nodded slowly, a look of satisfaction appearing in her eyes.

“Good… since you have such confidence, I will await your performance tomorrow.”

After the two left, Shen Subing exchanged a few more words with Shen Qingfeng before boarding a spirit energy flying vessel, which shot into the sky and left the Dragon Taming Peak without anyone knowing its destination.

Under the soft moonlight, in a quiet grassland…

Tan Yun, Mu Mengyi, and Xue Ziyan sat on the grass, gazing up at the vast moon and starry sky.

Not long after, Zhong Wushiyao in a snow-white dress walked over gracefully and sat down on Tan Yun’s right side.

The four of them chatted casually. The atmosphere was relaxed, and the laughter of the three girls rang out like birds singing in the night.

Suddenly, Mu Mengyi noticed that Tan Yun was quietly staring at the sky. She leaned against his chest and spoke softly, meaningfully.

“I know… what you’re thinking.”

“I believe that one day… you will succeed in your revenge.”

At that moment, Zhong Wushiyao looked up at the stars, her eyes filled with firm killing intent.

“Tan Yun, I’ve decided. From now on, I will cultivate with full focus.”

“I will temporarily stop refining artifacts. I must become stronger as quickly as possible so I can help you and Sister Mu… take revenge together.”

“Alright,” Tan Yun replied in a low voice. His gaze remained fixed on the sky, his hand clenching slightly, bones creaking faintly.

In his heart… were the shadows of countless cycles of fallen lives.

Suddenly, Xue Ziyan frowned slightly and spoke up in suspicion.

“Wait… you three are hiding something from me, aren’t you?”

Mu Mengyi and Zhong Wushiyao turned at the same time and replied in unison:

“No.”

“No? Do you think I’m stupid? I can tell something’s off right away!” Xue Ziyan said, slightly pouting. “Do you all see me as an outsider?!”

“Brother-in-law… what are you hiding from me? If you don’t tell me, I won’t talk to you anymore!”

Hearing this, Tan Yun, who had been looking at the sky, immediately turned back. The killing intent in his eyes vanished completely as he replied calmly:

“There really isn’t anything.”

“Brother-in-law, are you really not telling me?” Xue Ziyan smiled faintly, a cunning glint flashing in her eyes.

“Then I’ll remind you a little.”

She walked behind Tan Yun and quickly wrote on his back with her slender fingers:

“You three… are definitely hiding something from me.”

“If you don’t tell me, I’ll go tell Sister Mu and Sister Shi Yao… that you harassed me!”

When Tan Yun read those words in his mind, he froze for a moment.

He still remembered clearly—

that day, when he had correctly guessed her identity, her soft and delicate body had been pressed against his back, and he had recognized her from that familiar “size”…

And now, she was actually using that against him.

This… was clearly blackmail.
