My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty

Gu Lan's words caused Mu Yuyan to show a look of confusion.

But in the end, Mu Yuyan swallowed the words she was about to say.

Since Gu Lan had already spoken, saying anything more would be pointless.

Mu Yuyan instinctively tried to get up, but Gu Lan had already picked her up in his arms.

"No need."

With that, Gu Lan took a step forward and instantly turned into a blur, vanishing without pause.

His speed was incredibly fast, and there was no hesitation.

Xuan Feng instinctively wanted to follow, but the moment he took a step, Gu Lan's voice rang in his ear.

"I advise you not to follow me, or I won't show any mercy."

Hearing these words, Xuan Feng shook his head and smiled.

Since Gu Lan had already made it clear, he naturally had no more words to say.

As he watched Gu Lan's figure receding, he gave a faint smile and muttered,

"Don't worry, we will meet sooner or later."

Inside the Lava Clan's great hall, Lava God was meditating with his eyes closed when Chi Yang rushed in, flustered.

Seeing Chi Yang's anxiety, Lava God furrowed his brows in confusion.

"What's the matter? Why the hurry?"

"The Evil God you mentioned couldn't enter the Land of Ruin. Another powerful being stopped him."

Upon hearing this, Lava God's expression darkened immediately, and a killing intent flashed in his eyes.

"How could that be?"

His voice was cold, and Chi Yang dared not speak further. He simply nodded.

The truth was that the Evil God had failed to enter.

Lava God was deeply shocked. After all, not many in the Immortal Realm had the power to block the Evil God.

Unless the opposing force was greater than his own, only then could there be any hope.

Otherwise, it would be impossible.

"Do you know who the opponent is?"

When this question was asked, Chi Yang shook his head.

"All I know is that he wore a black robe and could manipulate the so-called Chaos energy."

Hearing this, Lava God was a little shocked.

In the entire Immortal Realm, only a few beings could wield such a power.

From what he knew, the only one who might be capable of this was the Light God.

But the Light God hadn't appeared for hundreds of years, and no one knew his current state.

But from Chi Yang's description, it didn't quite fit the Light God's style. It seemed more like Dark God Xuan Feng.

"Lava God, what should we do next?"

Chi Yang asked cautiously, and Lava God seemed to contemplate before replying,

"These matters are beyond what you can involve yourself in. I will make the decision."

Whether the information was true or false, they had to check it out.

Otherwise, no one would know the final outcome.

After some consideration, a beam of golden light shot out from Lava God's hand.

He wouldn't reveal himself, but he was sure someone else would be interested.

The power surged outward, and within moments, a figure appeared in the sky.

Blood Qi surged from around, and the Blood God stepped forward.

The Blood God's face was cold, his eyes flashing with intense killing intent.

"Weren't you just saying this place wasn't welcome to me?"

"Why then, have you suddenly summoned me here?"

The look he had given him earlier had been very dismissive.

Now, he was curious why he was being called here.

Lava God noticed the Blood God and stepped forward.

"Don't be so angry. I believe you'll be interested in what I have to say."

"Is that so? Then, tell me."

The Blood God responded unfriendly, not even sparing a glance.

As a god, how could he lower his dignity?

Since this guy had been rude first, he had no intention of giving him any respect.

He could tell the reason for the anger but didn't care about it.

"Don't you want to see the legendary Chaos energy?"

These words caused the Blood God to tremble involuntarily, turning his head around.

"Chaos energy?"

"Where is it!"

Although he had been pursuing the Great Path qi, the Chaos energy was also incredibly potent, and he was naturally interested.

Seeing his reaction, Lava God spoke slowly.

"According to reports from my clan, the one who wields this energy is likely the Dark God."

"Impossible, that weakling?"

Though the Blood God had been sealed for nearly a thousand years, he knew very well the strength of the Dark God.

He would believe anyone who wielded this power, but not this person.

"I know you don't believe it, and I don't believe it either, but the fact is the fact."

Lava God hadn't received solid information, but he said this to get the Blood God to investigate.

If they could get a satisfactory answer, the trip would not have been in vain.

"If you're afraid, you don't have to go. Just pretend I never said anything."

This statement made the Blood God pause.

"Afraid?"

"I just want to see what that weakling can do."

After saying this, the Blood God didn't hesitate for a moment. In an instant, he turned into a blur and vanished.

His speed was incredible, and in a flash, he was tens of thousands of feet away.

Watching him go, Lava God smiled coldly, his aura retracting.

Just now, he had feared that the Blood God might refuse.

But unexpectedly, with that one sentence, he had been sent off.

The Blood God's strength was not weak, and even if there was danger, he was confident that he could escape unharmed.

---

Gu Lan's speed was swift, and he didn't stop.

Before long, he and Mu Yuyan had already left the Immortal Realm.

At the palace of the Jing Nation, Gu Simu was anxiously waiting.

At that moment, she noticed the figure in the sky.

As soon as she saw it, Gu Simu rushed toward it, leaping up to the clouds.

Upon seeing Gu Lan, Gu Simu finally relaxed, a faint smile appearing on her face.

"Father, where have you been for so long?"

The anger on Gu Lan's face had long disappeared. Facing Gu Simu's question, he smiled faintly.

"I went to take care of some matters."

Gu Lan didn't explain further, as there were some things Gu Simu was better off not knowing.

On the way, Gu Lan explained the events to Mu Yuyan.

Mu Yuyan felt very guilty, not realizing that her situation had caused Gu Lan so much trouble.

But every time she tried to speak, Gu Lan would interrupt her.

Soon, the three of them descended to the clouds.

Zhongren, Ding True Man, and the others greeted Gu Lan without hesitation, bowing deeply.

"Greetings, my lord."

"Greetings, Master."

They showed deep respect, and Gu Lan only waved his hand lightly.

"No need for such formalities."

"You've worked hard this time."

While the words were polite, Zhongren, Ding True Man, and the others felt undeserving.

During Gu Lan's absence, there had been no danger.

As everyone stood in hesitation, a massive surge of soul energy suddenly emerged from Gu Lan's hand.

Seeing this power, the others were puzzled, their faces filled with confusion.

They didn't know what Gu Lan meant or what he was about to do.

While they were still pondering, the soul power suddenly burst forth from Gu Lan's hand, instantly enveloping them.

Under this power, their auras grew several times stronger.

The power was immense, and they were all deeply shocked.

Though their levels hadn't changed, their strength had greatly increased.
