My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty

In the Gengtian World, Gu Lan landed on a mountain peak, holding the ice-encased Mu Yuyan.

The sun hung low in the west, casting a slanting light.

A gentle breeze blew, rustling the leaves.

As the evening glow descended, the ice enveloping Mu Yuyan turned into white mist, dispersing into the air.

She slowly opened her eyes and saw Gu Lan right in front of her.

"D..Darling!"

Mu Yuyan's eyes filled with joy as she immediately opened her arms to embrace Gu Lan.

"Honey... be gentle, it hurts a bit!"

Gu Lan smiled, turning to the side and cradling her head in front of him. His pale face showed no color, yet he wore a doting smile.

Seeing Mu Yuyan awake safely, he finally felt relieved.

Gu Lan pressed his forehead against hers, leaning on his wife, and his tense consciousness immediately fell into a deep sleep.

He had forcibly awakened from his comprehension of the Heavenly Dao and had consecutively cast summoning spells to call forth numerous Confucian sages. His spirit and divine power had been drained to the limit.

Not a single drop was left!

Now, as he slept, it resembled the self-protection mechanism of an ordinary person after sustaining a severe injury.

The difference was that while Gu Lan's consciousness had fallen asleep, he was also continuously recovering himself.

After breaking through to the God Realm, Gu Lan's body had transformed into a divine body; as long as his physical form hadn't completely perished and his spirit was intact, he could continually recover his divine power and spirit consumption.

However, the stronger the divine power, the longer the recovery time required.

Before falling into sleep, Gu Lan used his last bit of strength to summon the Azure Lotus of Merits.

At this moment, the Azure Lotus of Merits was spinning continuously, emanating transformative power to help Gu Lan restore his strength.

Seeing the changes in Gu Lan, Mu Yuyan understood everything.

She knew that Gu Lan had just blocked all the attacks for her, which caused such immense consumption, and he didn't even have time to say anything to her before falling into sleep.

"Darling, before you wake up, I will definitely stay by your side!"

"I want to be the first person you see when you awaken!"

Mu Yuyan gently kissed Gu Lan's forehead.

Then, she wrapped one arm around Gu Lan and raised the other slightly, frost forming at her fingertips, snowflakes blooming.

The blossoming snowflakes began to spin and rise, instantly lowering the temperature of the surrounding air.

Countless frost began to gather, producing numerous snowflakes that spread like vines at a visible speed.

In an instant, the mountain peak transformed into an ice peak, with countless birds and beasts frozen before they could escape, their vital signs completely frozen.

A world of ice and snow was formed.

Mu Yuyan opened up a cave on the pale mountain peak, embracing Gu Lan as they flew into the cave on the Azure Lotus of Merits.

"Bright Clan has been defeated; the Divine Son has escaped!"

"The leader of the Lanyan Royal School and the Empress of Jing Nation fought in the void, protecting billions of beings in the Gengtian World!"

After the Divine Son Arthur self-destructed the Azure Lotus of Merits in the void, news of the Lanyan Royal School's victory over the Bright Clan spread instantaneously throughout the Six Realms.

The various clans of the Six Realms were overjoyed, especially those who had been oppressed by the Bright Clan, all celebrating with great festivities.

Even the Beast Clan and Ghost Clan, as former great houses of the Immortal Realm, were no exception, holding various celebratory events.

The entire cultivation world in the Six Realms seemed to have fallen into a frenzy of celebration.

Yet behind the celebrations lay countless undercurrents, surging and howling!

"Rumors should not be taken seriously! I heard that the leader of the Lanyan Royal School, Gu Lan, suffered severe injuries to both his soul and body after fighting Divine Son Arthur, nearly dying in battle."

"Now, the Empress of Jing Nation is protecting Gu Lan's body, sealing him somewhere in the Gengtian World, seemingly waiting for him to awaken. But I think Gu Lan has almost no chance to recover!"

"Think about it, Gu Lan's opponent is Divine Son Arthur, the strongest in the Six Realms! Arthur self-destructed the Supreme Treasure of Merits; such terrifying power, I doubt even Arthur could withstand it. Gu Lan's strength is slightly weaker than Arthur's; how could he endure it?"

"Right, don't you agree?"

"Ah... yes, yes!"

Within the nine heavens of the Immortal Realm, cultivators in various markets and black markets were discussing the battle in the Gengtian World.

There were all kinds of versions of rumors, each claiming to be eyewitness accounts.

In fact, many of them had not even reached the Imperial Realm; they lacked the qualifications to tear apart the void, let alone stand within it.

Yet strangely, it was these people's words and rumors that spread the fastest and widest within the cultivation world.

It seemed as if an invisible hand was stirring everything.

Behind the seemingly festive atmosphere, countless forces opened their greedy eyes, fixating on the large cake left behind after the Bright Clan's defeat.

Everyone wanted a piece of this cake.

At this time, in the Chengtian World, the Lanyan Royal School and Nine Heavens Alliance had only managed to hold the Bright Clan's Sacred Mountain and Bright Temple.

Even Cloudy Sky City, once belonging to Luo Ying, had been forcibly taken by various forces under different pretenses.

"That woman Luo Ying has already joined the Jing Nation; how dare she still want to occupy Cloudy Sky City? It's simply a delusion!"

"Cloudy Sky City is the second-largest dojo in the Chengtian World, and the Lanyan Royal School has already occupied the first dojo, Bright Clan's Sacred Mountain. They absolutely cannot take Cloudy Sky City as well!"

Within Cloudy Sky City, countless cultivators stood on the once-great statue, where a handsome young cultivator was passionately giving a speech.

The young cultivator was Zhan Tu, the newly appointed Holy Son of the Beast Clan. At a young age, he had already reached the Imperial Realm, and was generous and charismatic, often traveling and gaining the adoration of low-tier cultivators from various forces.

In a short time, Zhan Tu gathered many like-minded individuals, establishing a new alliance called the Anti-Heaven League.

This alliance ostensibly opposed the Bright Clan but actually opposed any powerful force.

Naturally, their greatest opposition was against the Lanyan Royal School, the most prominent and powerful entity.

Whether intentional or not, this alliance quickly grew after its establishment in the Six Realms.

Many forces that had once allied with the Lanyan Royal School had not made any public statements.

It seemed they were neither supportive nor opposed.

"Fellow cultivators, we are now the Anti-Heaven League! We have the support of the major forces of the Six Realms and countless Divine Realm experts; we need not fear the Lanyan Royal School!"

"Indeed! The Lanyan Royal School has contributed much to the Six Realms, but they have received what they deserve; they cannot continue to be greedy!"

"The Six Realms have already produced one Bright Clan; we cannot allow a second!"

"The strength of the Lanyan Royal School must be weakened!"

Zhan Tu shouted passionately on the platform, his voice enhanced by secret methods, carrying a compelling power.

The low-tier cultivators below were stirred up and began to raise their arms in unison, shouting:

"Weaken the Lanyan Royal School!"

"Weaken the Lanyan Royal School!"
