The Supreme Being Against Heaven
Chapter Summary
"Alright, I'll send someone to escort you out of the Huangfu Secret Realm right away." (Ya Wen Romance) After Tang Xinying ordered someone to send the old man away, she gazed at the starry sky with admiration in her eyes. "Tang Xinying, Princess of the Tang Dynasty!" "Hmph, besides you, how many others are like me, lurking in the Huangfu Holy Sect, for that divine sword, for the treasure within the Fallen God Canyon!" At this point, Murong Shishi's smile grew even colder, her beautiful eyes fill...
"Alright, I'll send someone to escort you out of the Huangfu Secret Realm right away." (Ya Wen Romance)
After Tang Xinying ordered someone to send the old man away, she gazed at the starry sky with admiration in her eyes. "My father was farsighted. Before my Tang family had even destroyed the Mu Feng Holy Dynasty, he arranged for me to be placed in the Huangfu Holy Dynasty."
"One day, my Tang family will take back everything we have lost!"
...
At the same time, all the elders of the Immortal Sect's Pill Lineage learned that Pang Tong and thirty-nine other disciples had committed suicide at the Time-Space Dojo that day!
The thirty-nine disciples were the disciples of the Fourth Elder Lu Yi, the Second Elder, the Third Elder, the Sixth Elder, the Ninth Elder, and the Sixteenth Elder.
The six elders were furious and summoned their respective subordinates (deacons) overnight. They informed Han Yong, the deacon of the Discipline Hall, of the news and ordered their subordinates to thoroughly investigate the matter!
Upon learning this, Han Yong immediately went to the Time-Space Dojo to examine the bodies of the thirty-nine victims, hoping to find some clues...
The next day, early morning.
Immortal Sect Veins, Murong Immortal Valley, Murong Immortal Palace.
Golden sunlight shone outside the palace onto a woman of unparalleled beauty.
The woman wore a floor-length pink dress that was as thin as a cicada's wing, which outlined her tall and charming figure in a way that was both visible and hidden, and her waist was so cinched that it seemed impossible to wrap one's hand around it.
She was like an angel whose wings had been broken and who had fallen to earth. For some reason, a hint of desolation often lingered in her beautiful eyes.
The woman in the pink dress was none other than Murong Shishi, formerly the chief disciple of the inner sect's weapon-making branch, and now the eighteenth elder of the immortal sect's weapon-making branch. (Elegant Romance)
"Whoosh!"
A ghostly figure descended from the sky, transforming into an old woman who bowed to Murong Shishi and said, "Miss, this old servant has something to report."
"Yes, come in." Murong Shishi turned and entered the Immortal Palace. The ninety-year-old woman followed closely behind and hurriedly set up a soundproof barrier.
“Miss, according to this old servant’s investigation, last night, the Holy Master of the Tang Dynasty’s Guardian, disguised as Tang Xinying’s servant, entered the Huangfu Holy Sect, and left the sect at midnight.”
The old woman's cloudy eyes gleamed with a sharp light: "This old servant guesses that, most likely, the Holy Master of the Court came to find Tang Xinying because it was related to the divine sword that the ancestor of the Huangfu Holy Sect obtained in the Abyss of the Burial Gods!"
Upon hearing this, Murong Shishi frowned, fell into a brief silence, and then nodded slightly. "Yes, I understand. You may leave."
"This old servant takes his leave." Before the old woman finished speaking, she vanished without a trace, like a wisp of smoke.
Murong Shishi smiled coldly, her lips curving upwards. "Tang Xinying, Princess of the Tang Dynasty!"
"Hmph, besides you, how many others are like me, lurking in the Huangfu Holy Sect, for that divine sword, for the treasure within the Fallen God Canyon!"
At this point, Murong Shishi's smile grew even colder, her beautiful eyes filled with undisguised killing intent, "All the treasures of the Huangfu Holy Sect will belong to my Murong family!"
"Only if my Murong family obtains everything from the Huangfu Holy Sect will we have a chance to return to the sight of everyone on the Heavenly Punishment Continent and make everyone grovel and submit before my Murong family!"
"My Murong family will one day restore its former glory!"
From Murong Shishi's words, it's not hard to imagine that her family was a powerful family in ancient times.
As she said, as Huangfu Shengzong gradually declined from its peak, how many elders, chief disciples, and even reclusive old cultivators in the sect have joined Huangfu Shengzong not to strengthen it, but to wait for the day when they will divide it up?
In Murong Shishi's view, the current Huangfu Holy Sect is infiltrated by spies from the Divine Soul Immortal Palace, the Eternal Immortal Sect, the Four Great Holy Dynasties, and hidden families!
The fickle nature of human hearts and the unpredictability of life perfectly describe the current state of Emperor Huangfu Shengzong!
...
Another day has passed in the blink of an eye.
At the entrance to the Immortal Sect's Artifact Vein Mountain.
After explaining his reason for entering the artifact vein to the two disciples guarding the mountain gate and registering his information, the two disciples opened the artifact vein secret realm and put Tan Yun inside.
Of course, before entering the Artifact Vein Secret Realm, Tan Yun had politely inquired about which elder Zhong Wu Shiyao was under and where the Immortal Valley where she cultivated was located.
Tan Yun piloted his spirit boat and flew for three hours through the breathtaking scenery of the secret realm. After identifying Zhongwu Shiyao's Immortal Valley, he piloted his spirit boat and landed outside the valley.
After shouting, they discovered that Zhong Wushiyao was not there.
At this moment, in a fairy valley opposite Zhongwu Shiyao Fairy Valley, a green figure flashed out and transformed into Gongsun Ruoxi, who was wearing a green dress.
She hasn't changed much in the past three years; she remains a natural beauty without makeup. Because of her natural beauty, she is hailed as one of the nine beauties and is highly admired by male disciples in the immortal sect's cultivation lineage!
At that moment, her beautiful eyes widened as she stared at the familiar figure beside Mu Mengyi. She rubbed her eyes sharply, and when she realized she wasn't seeing things, a hint of longing flashed in her eyes. She then pursed her lips and softly murmured, "Tan Yun, is that you?"
Upon hearing this, Tan Yun slowly turned around, looked at Gongsun Ruoxi, who was already at the second level of the Soul Refining Realm, and a look of amazement flashed in his eyes. He then smiled and said, "Senior Sister Gongsun, it's been a long time."
"It really is you!" Gongsun Ruoxi's beautiful figure flashed by, accompanied by a unique feminine fragrance, and appeared in front of Tan Yun. She was overjoyed and said, "You're not dead, that's wonderful! My... my junior sister Shiyao will be so happy to know you're back!"
"Tan Yun, what exactly happened? When did you return? And how did you leave the Eternal Land?"
After asking the question, Gongsun Ruoxi stepped forward and took Mu Mengyi's right arm, showing a close friendship.
Indeed, after the trials of the Eternal Land, Gongsun Ruoxi became close friends with Mu Mengyi, Xue Ziyan, Huangfu Tingfeng, Ke Xinyi, Jun Buping, Shangguan Bingbing, Lu Ren, Baili Longtian, and Xiao Qingxuan.
They got together quite a few times during those three years.
Subsequently, Tan Yun told Gongsun Ruoxi that after he left the Abyss of Burial Gods, the time tunnel had already closed. So he hid inside, avoiding the beast tide, before returning to his sect with the trial disciples of the Eternal Land.
Upon hearing this, Gongsun Ruoxi smiled and said, "You must be here to find Shiyao, right? She was just summoned to the Murong Immortal Palace by her master. Why don't you wait for her in my Immortal Valley first, and I'll go find her and bring her back right away."
Tan Yun immediately agreed, and so he and Mu Mengyi followed Gongsun Ruoxi into her fairy valley.
After arranging for the two to sit in a grand hall, Gongsun Ruoxi smiled and said, "Tan Yun's return is wonderful news! I'll send someone to invite Ziyan, Bingbing, Qingxuan, and Huangfu Tingfeng over to welcome Tan Yun back!"
Before Tan Yun could speak, Gongsun Ruoxi happily ran out of the pavilion, walked straight out of the Immortal Valley, summoned ten junior brothers, gave each of them ten thousand mid-grade spirit stones, and asked them to go and inform Xue Ziyan and the others.
She then went to Murong Xian Palace in person to find Zhong Wu Shi Yao...
