Amongst Cultivators, I Stand Above All



Shangguan Yun'er's black hair was scattered in all directions, and her face was deathly pale, like a glass doll that would shatter at any moment.

After an unknown period of time, a small maid outside the door said, "Sister Little Yue, Lord Little Ya said that everything is ready, you…"

At this time, Little Yue came back to her senses and stood up. Little Yue called two maids in and said, "Come with me to help Young Miss put on her clothes."

The two maids immediately went forward to help.

...

When Shangguan Yun'er opened her eyes, she realized that she was not in the bedroom.

The room was filled with runes, the floor, the walls, and even the ceiling.

Shangguan Yun'er had been to this house before…

Shangguan Yun'er sat up, and Little Yue immediately went forward to help her. Little Yue said, "Young Miss, you're awake."

Little Yue's voice was filled with joy. Shangguan Yun'er nodded. However, the room was filled with symbols, causing Shangguan Yun'er's eyes to become deep and serene.

After a long time, Shangguan Yun'er closed her eyes again. She sighed and said, "Little Yue, there's no need."

"Young Miss, what do you mean?" Little Yue asked.

Shangguan Yun'er seemed to have been drained of all her strength. She leaned into Little Yue's arms and said, "My fate is like this, why do I need to trouble people's lives?"

Shangguan Yun'er knew that her mother had died early, and Shangguan Yun'er was congenitally deficient. She would not have lived past 30.

...

That year, Shangguan Yun'er was muddleheaded. Shangguan Yun'er would be unconscious for 10 hours every day.

Shangguan Yun'er knew that she was about to die, but her father seemed to be extremely busy. She had not seen her father for half a month.

Finally, one day, she opened her eyes and saw her father beside her.

Shangguan Yun'er clearly remembered that her father's complexion was very good that day, and the exhaustion from before was also gone.

"Yun'er, you're saved now, you don't have to die. As long as you survive, I will pay any price…" Shangguan Patriarch said that day.

As Shangguan Patriarch spoke, his eyes became moist. This was the first time Shangguan Yun'er had seen her father cry.

Shangguan Yun'er was also very happy. It seemed like there was a way for her to survive.

However, Shangguan Yun'er would never have thought that she had survived because she obtained another person's heart.

Shangguan Patriarch said that as long as she had this heart, Shangguan Yun'er could live to at least 200 years old.

Shangguan Yun'er had been trapped in the mansion since she was young. Her mind was very simple and could not accept the exchange of other people's lives for her own.

Shangguan Patriarch said that the owner of this heart had a profound cultivation. Therefore, even if he did not have a heart, he would not die.

When Shangguan Yun'er heard this, the shackles on her body seemed to have been suddenly unlocked.

Only after a long time did Shangguan Yun'er realize that this matter was not that simple.

...

That day, Shangguan Yun'er was in a room like this. The red flowing symbols were the blood of many cultivators and their vitality.

Now that Shangguan Yun'er was in such a room again, the surrounding runes did not light up.

Little Yue's eyes widened when she heard Shangguan Yun'er's words. She said in shock, "Young Miss, why do you say that? You are the honorable noble lady Miss Shangguan, you must live."

Shangguan Yun'er laughed lightly. With her pale face, she suddenly felt a sense of sorrow.

"What noble lady? I'm just a mortal," said Shangguan Yun'er.

Little Yue supported Shangguan Yun'er. Little Yue's face was pale as she said, "Young Miss."

Shangguan Yuer was stunned for a moment. Little Yue continued, "You're the honorable Miss Shangguan. Your life is the most important. Do you know how many people will die with you if anything happens to you? If you die, everyone in the Shangguan Residence will die with you."

"I'm not in charge of life, and neither am I in charge of death," said Shangguan Yun'er helplessly.

At this moment, Little Ya walked in and said, "Everything is ready."

Just as Little Yue nodded, the guard ran over in a panic with a strange expression. The guard said, "The Young Master… is back."

"He's back?" Little Yue said with a gloomy face. "Why did he come back at this time? Does he really think that he can come and go as you please in the Shangguan Residence?"

The guard said with a strange expression, "But... The Young Master brought the Old Master back."

The guard did not know what else to say. 

Little Yue and Little Ya were stunned. They said in unison, "What?"

The guard was under great pressure from the two of them. The guard said, "It's true. He's already in. Something seems to have happened to Old Master."

Hearing this, Shangguan Yun'er started to cough. Little Yue quickly checked on Shangguan Yun'er. She must make sure nothing happened to Shangguan Yun'er.
