My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty
Chapter 751 - 751: Helpless Intervention

With a cold voice, the words were spoken, and the two men's vital energy surged instantly. Countless golden rays flashed out, and the vast palace was immediately illuminated.

Looking at the aura surrounding these two individuals, Gu Lan's face darkened, and killing intent immediately flashed in his eyes. He hadn't intended to make a move, but now that these two had noticed him, not taking action might mean he would lose his chance to seize the treasures.

"Come out quickly! How dare you act so recklessly in my Upper God Clan? Are you seeking death!"

Upon hearing the angry bellow, Gu Lan's face turned grim. He had just taken a step when two dark shadows suddenly flashed from afar.

The two figures were cloaked in black robes, their faces indistinct. However, their power was undeniably strong.

"How dare you come to my Upper God Clan? I'll show you the consequences!"

"What's so special about Upper God Clan? A bunch of weaklings! If it weren't for the four-layered formation outside, I would have wiped you all out already!"

These two men were equally unyielding. Their vital energy surged, and gusts of wind rose beneath their feet.

Seeing the aura emanating from them, Gu Lan was startled. No wonder their power felt familiar—it was from the Cloud Clan!

However, he found it strange. Why would the Cloud Clan be here? Could they be after the treasures as well? But that didn't make sense. The Cloud Clan had a high standing in the Immortal Realm. Their clan possessed many treasures, so they shouldn't be so easily swayed by such trivial items.

"Could there be another motive?" Gu Lan muttered to himself, his gaze now fixed on the four men.

Since they hadn't spotted him, there was no need for him to reveal himself. He breathed a sigh of relief, but then he suddenly realized, if these four men made a move, things would get even more troublesome. If the hundreds of strong warriors inside were alerted, his plan would be ruined.

The four men's strength was about the same, but while the two men from Upper God Clan were furious, they hadn't acted immediately.

"Having infiltrated my Upper God Clan, today will be your last day!"

They didn't act, but that didn't mean they wouldn't call for reinforcements. One of them gathered his energy, and a golden light flashed from his hand.

At that moment, however, a sword light descended from the distance.

"Chi!"

With a sharp, ear-piercing tearing sound, the golden light shattered.

The person who had used his energy staggered back two steps. After steadying himself, a fiery rage ignited in his eyes.

"Even more help? What is Upper God Clan to you!"

His voice was filled with fury as he glared into the distance.

Gu Lan stepped forward with his sword drawn, a faint smile on his face.

"Don't misunderstand. I'm not with them, but the four of you might have to lie here for a while!"

Upon hearing this, the four men froze. Before they could react, Gu Lan became a blur of motion, his figure flickering in front of them.

With a series of sharp sounds, all four men fell to their knees. When they looked up again, their faces were pale, and blood was trickling from the corners of their mouths.

They could no longer move, and their auras had been suppressed.

"Who are you, to act so recklessly in my Upper God Clan?"

Gu Lan's expression was cold as he sheathed his Hongmeng Sword, revealing the Linglong Pagoda.

"Why so many questions? If you'd shut up, you might have lived!"

As for the two men from the Cloud Clan, Gu Lan didn't even spare them a glance.

He injected his energy into the Linglong Pagoda, and golden light flickered. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of treasures had been absorbed into the pagoda.

"These are the treasures of my Upper God Clan, and how dare you..."

The two men from the Upper God Clan were furious, their eyes burning with rage.

These were their clan's treasures. How could they let Gu Lan take them?

They struggled to stand, but it was to no avail.

"Return the treasures of Upper God Clan!"

Veins bulged on their foreheads, and their bodies began to tremble slightly as they tried to push back against Gu Lan.

But Gu Lan wasn't about to give them a chance. With a cold expression, he walked over to the two men, pressing his hand down on their bodies.

With a thunderous boom, the ground shattered beneath them, and their knees were drenched in blood.

"Don't say anything more. I'm not joking with you!"

Gu Lan was really speechless. How could these two have no sense at all?

The difference in strength was already this great, and they still didn't realize it?

The two men's expressions were still grim, but they had no opportunity to speak again.

Gu Lan ignored them, his gaze shifting back to the Linglong Pagoda.

As he watched the treasures continuously enter the pagoda, a smile crept onto his face.

...

After a few moments, he finally withdrew the Linglong Pagoda, and the treasures within the palace were all cleared out.

He didn't hurry to leave. Instead, he turned his attention to the two men from the Cloud Clan.

"Are you two coming with me, or are you staying here?"

After speaking, he waved his hand, releasing them from their restraints.

As for the two men from the Upper God Clan, he knocked them unconscious to avoid any future trouble once he left.

The two men from the Cloud Clan exchanged glances, but Gu Lan paid them no mind, instead walking toward the exit.

"If you want to live, follow me. Otherwise, you'll die here!"

Though Gu Lan didn't know how they had entered, he was sure that leaving would not be easy.

His voice was calm, and whether they chose to follow him or not was up to them.

The two men from the Cloud Clan looked at each other, seemingly making a decision, and hurriedly followed Gu Lan.

The fact that Gu Lan could suppress the four of them with just a single move was enough to show his power.

Following him, they had a chance to survive.

Under Gu Lan's lead, they soon stepped out of the palace.

The guards outside were still present, and they seemed even more vigilant than before.

Gu Lan furrowed his brows slightly, and his aura immediately suppressed to a minimal level.

He didn't want to linger here, but as he took a few steps forward, he overheard some murmurs.

"I heard the young Lord has set off with twelve soldiers. I wonder if they'll succeed this time!"

"Don't worry. With the young Lord's strength, he will definitely return safely!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Lan retracted his steps, his face darkening.

He had thought the young Lord would take his time, but he hadn't expected him to arrive so promptly.

Without a doubt, the young Lord was heading to the Lanyan Royal School.

Gu Lan's eyes flickered. He then turned towards the guards.

"Ah, what a pity we can't fight. We can only wait here."

"Don't worry about the young Lord. With him leading, what need is there for us..."

Before they could finish their conversation, both of them suddenly felt a cold chill.

The two men's power wasn't as great as Gu Lan's, but they could sense danger.

As they turned around, two sword lights were already at their foreheads.

Gu Lan's sudden appearance startled them, and their faces turned ashen.

"Who are you?"

"You don't need to know who I am. You'll answer what I ask!"

The two men had intended to retort, but Gu Lan's cold expression and the sword lights pressing forward made them falter.

"I'm not joking with you. If you don't want to die, just do as I say!"
