The Supreme Being Against Heaven
Chapter Summary
Zhong Wu Shiyao looked at Murong Shishi apologetically and said, "Master, I know you love me very much and I know you are good to me, but I cannot agree to this." "Shiyao, Tan Yun has been dead for so long. "You have to give your teacher a reason, don't you?" Zhong Wushiyao said with a sorrowful expression, "Because Tan Yun said at my parents' graves that he was my parents' son-in-law." "And there's this too." Zhong Wushiyao gently raised her right hand, looking at the emerald green jade bracele...
After Gongsun Ruoxi left, Mu Mengyi extended a slender finger and drew a circle on Tan Yun's chest, saying thoughtfully, "My woman's sixth sense tells me that Senior Sister Gongsun has feelings for you."
Tan Yun chuckled, "Nonsense, stop joking..."
An hour later, at Murong Xian Palace.
Inside the main hall, Murong Shishi held Zhong Wushiyao's hand and said sincerely, "Shiyao, how have you thought about the matter I asked you to consider?"
Half a year ago, Murong Shishi told Zhongwu Shiyao that she had a younger brother who was not only handsome but also exceptionally talented, and she wanted to match Zhongwu Shiyao with her brother.
The Murong family was once a powerful force in the ancient Tianfa Continent. Although they have declined, they are still an ancient family today, and their power is not much weaker than that of the four great holy dynasties.
She greatly favored Zhong Wu Shiyao, which is why she wanted Shiyao to become the young mistress of the Murong family.
Of course, Murong Shishi also only told Zhong Wushiyao about her family background and did not allow Shiyao to reveal it to anyone.
Zhong Wu Shiyao looked at Murong Shishi apologetically and said, "Master, I know you love me very much and I know you are good to me, but I cannot agree to this."
"Shiyao, Tan Yun has been dead for so long. Why would you refuse your teacher for someone who is no longer here?" Murong Shishi asked, puzzled. "You have to give your teacher a reason, don't you?"
Zhong Wushiyao said with a sorrowful expression, "Because Tan Yun said at my parents' graves that he was my parents' son-in-law."
"And there's this too." Zhong Wushiyao gently raised her right hand, looking at the emerald green jade bracelet on her fair wrist, a tear sliding down her beautiful eyes. "This is the Tan family's heirloom jade bracelet, given to me by Tan Yun's mother."
"Although Tan Yun and I haven't officially married yet, from the moment I put on the jade bracelet, I've considered myself a daughter-in-law of the Tan family. Ya Wen, right?"
“Master, the most important reason why I cannot agree to your request is not these things. It is because I truly love him and there is no room for anyone else in my heart. So, please forgive me, Master. I do not want to marry your brother, nor do I want to marry anyone else.”
Upon hearing this, Murong Shishi let out a deep sigh of relief, raised her hand to wipe away the tears on Zhong Wushiyao's face, and said softly, "Yes, I understand. I will no longer force you from now on."
"Thank you for your understanding, Master." Zhong Wu Shiyao's eyes were filled with gratitude. "You are always so kind to your disciple."
"You are my only disciple, so of course I treat you well." Murong Shishi smiled gently. "Later, the chief elder will be looking for Master and the other elders to discuss our weapon-crafting competition, which takes place once every ten years in about twenty days. I have to go there now, so you should go back and focus on your cultivation. Remember to go to our weapon-crafting competition's space-time arena to watch it on the day of the competition."
"Yes, disciple has remembered," Zhongwu Shiyao said obediently.
Afterwards, Murong Shishi led Zhong Wushiyao out of the palace.
She still harbored the idea of bringing Shiyao and her brother together. She simply couldn't believe that Tan Yun's charm was so great that Shiyao would rather live a lonely life than marry anyone else!
As soon as Murong Shishi and Zhongwu Shiyao stepped out of the Immortal Palace, they saw Gongsun Ruoxi flying down in front of them on her sword.
"Disciple greets Master," Gongsun Ruoxi bowed.
"Hmm." Murong Shishi smiled lightly, "Ruoxi, is there something you need from your teacher?"
"Reporting to Master, I am looking for Junior Sister Zhong Wu," Gongsun Ruoxi replied.
"Oh, then you all go ahead. I'll head over to the chief disciple first." With that, Murong Shishi leaped into the sky on her flying sword. As she ascended to a thousand feet, Gongsun Ruoxi's joyful voice reached her ears below:
"Junior Sister Zhongwu, your senior sister has brought you fantastic news! Tan Yun is not dead, he has returned, and he is waiting for you in my Immortal Valley!"
Suddenly, Murong Shishi's delicate body trembled. She looked down and saw Zhongwu Shiyao, overjoyed and weeping, stepping on a flying sword and flying away from Murong Immortal Palace with Gongsun Ruoxi!
"Tan Yun is still alive!" Murong Shishi was shocked!
Shocked and filled with doubt, she stepped onto her flying sword and disappeared into the horizon...
An hour later, inside Gongsun Ruoxi's Immortal Valley Pavilion, Zhongwu Shiyao and Tan Yun embraced tightly.
Upon their reunion, Zhong Wushiyao abandoned her reserve, stood on tiptoe, and kissed Tan Yun's lips while shedding tears.
Tan Yun responded passionately, kissing Zhong Wushiyao until she was breathless before finally letting go of her…
Three days later, the seasons changed.
Baili Longtian and Xiao Qingxuan; Jun Buping and Shangguan Bingbing; Huangfu Tingfeng and Ke Xinyi, three couples, entered Gongsun Ruoxi's Immortal Valley hand in hand.
Xue Ziyan and Lu Ren, the吐槽君 (tucaojun, a nickname for Lu Ren, a person who criticizes others), followed alone behind the six people.
A day ago, when Gongsun Ruoxi sent someone to invite them over for a chat, all eight of them were in seclusion. When they heard that Tan Yun had returned alive, they rushed over excitedly!
"Brother-in-law! I missed you so much!" Xue Ziyan ignored the stares of others and hugged Tan Yun tightly. "Brother-in-law, have you missed me?"
"I think about it all the time," Tan Yun said with a smile.
"Tch~ That's a bit fake!" After leaving Tan Yun's embrace, Xue Ziyan chattered away with Mu Mengyi, Zhong Wushiyao, and Gongsun Ruoxi.
"Brother, it's good to see you back!"
"Brother, welcome back!"
"..."
Lu Ren, Jun Buping, and Baili Longtian gathered together and gave Tan Yun a bear hug!
Then, Huangfu Tingfeng gave Tan Yun another big hug and said happily, "It's good that you're alive! While you were gone, the brothers missed you terribly! Now that's all right, the clouds have parted and the fog has lifted, let's drink to our hearts' content today!"
"Alright!" Tan Yunlang laughed, then looked at Huangfu Tingfeng and Ke Xinyi and said, "I just saw you two coming hand in hand. Brother Huangfu, you'd better treat Senior Sister Ke well!"
"Of course!" Huangfu Tingfeng gazed at Ke Xinyi with deep affection.
At this moment, Ke Xinyi gracefully approached Tan Yun and gently hugged him, saying, "Welcome back, my savior."
"From now on, we're all on the same side, so let's not bring up these past events." Tan Yun smiled slightly.
"Mmm." After Ke Xinyi left Tan Yun, Shangguan Bingbing and Xiao Qingxuan each gave Tan Yun a light hug, expressing their friendship with him in this way!
Gongsun Ruoxi had already prepared a banquet. After the twelve people took their seats, they enjoyed themselves immensely and had a very pleasant conversation!
The friendship between the twelve people quickly blossomed!
All night long, the Valley of Immortals was filled with the sounds of laughter from the crowd...
That night, Tan Yun, Jun Buping, Lu Ren, Huangfu Tingfeng, and Baili Longtian truly drank themselves into oblivion!
The next day, early morning.
Tan Yun vaguely heard a series of shouts entering his ears:
"Tan Yun, we know you're in there, get out here!"
"Tan Yun, if you're going to be a coward, then don't come out! Bah!"
"Come out, you son of a bitch..."
