My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty -
Chapter 773 - 773: The Oddity of the Immortal Realm
Under the combined efforts of hundreds of powerful warriors, Arthur slowly regained consciousness. Dragging his severely injured body, Arthur stumbled forward, his eyes filled with an overwhelming murderous intent. He never expected to be defeated so completely. Had it not been for him using his trump card at the last moment, he would have already been a corpse under Gu Lan's sword.
The Bright Clan warriors below watched with silence, none daring to speak as they saw the expression on Arthur's face. They all understood that now was not the time to say anything—any misstep would lead to death.
"This humiliation... I will reclaim it sooner or later!" Arthur snarled, his expression twisted in anger. He cast a cold, piercing gaze over the group of warriors below him.
"You need to go and find the Reincarnate Clan!" he ordered sharply.
Upon hearing this, the Bright Clan warriors froze, their eyes wide in shock.
"Divine Son, we must carefully plan this out!" one of them said hesitantly. The Reincarnate Clan was a unique group in the Immortal Realm. There were only a handful of members—just dozens—but their power was extraordinarily terrifying.
"Go and find them," Arthur commanded, his voice cold as ice. "Tell them that as long as they help me kill Gu Lan, they can ask for anything in return!"
His words left no room for debate. The kneeling warriors immediately understood, and without a word, they withdrew to carry out his orders.
Meanwhile, within the Lanyan Royal School's palace, only Gu Lan remained. Though he had not sustained any serious injuries, he had expended a significant amount of energy. In the brief time since, he had absorbed over a hundred Spirit Fruits. As he suppressed the aura within him, a figure appeared in the distance.
It was a member of the Blood Clan, but not Xue Lengyan. This person was dressed in a black robe, with a faint aura of blood emanating from his body. He walked forward and, stopping several dozen yards away from Gu Lan, knelt respectfully on one knee.
Gu Lan raised an eyebrow, confused by the gesture. "There's no need for this. You are not my subordinate. Why this formal greeting?"
The Blood Clan member bowed his head and replied respectfully, "You saved the life of our young Lord. This is a gesture of gratitude. I have come to inform you of something."
Gu Lan's curiosity piqued at the mention of something important. "What is it that you wish to tell me?"
The Blood Clan member hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Our clan has received word that Arthur has sent people to seek out the Reincarnate Clan."
At these words, Gu Lan's confusion deepened. He had never heard of the Reincarnate Clan. "Who are they? What's their background?"
The Blood Clan member's eyes darkened as he explained, "They are an anomaly in the Immortal Realm. There are only a handful of them, but their power is terrifying. Once they reach the peak of their cultivation, they reincarnate to begin anew, retaining all their previous memories and cultivation. They have been doing this for thousands of years."
Gu Lan's face grew serious as he processed this information. The Reincarnate Clan was a rare and mysterious group, and now, Arthur had sent for them. This was clearly no small matter.
"I've said what I needed to say. I must take my leave now." The Blood Clan member bowed once more, then stood and began to leave.
Gu Lan didn't say anything further. He glanced into the distance, his expression darkening. "Interesting. Looks like I'll have to take a look myself."
Arthur had clearly sought out the Reincarnate Clan because he needed their power. Gu Lan wasn't about to let him get ahead. He needed to find them first—if they were useful, he would take advantage of them. If not, they would die. He couldn't afford to let anyone threaten his life, especially not these mysterious and potentially dangerous individuals.
With that thought, Gu Lan's energy surged, and he leapt into the sky, soaring toward his destination. But before he could get far, a figure suddenly appeared in the distance.
Mu Yuyan arrived, her expression filled with concern. "Where are you going?"
Gu Lan smiled faintly upon seeing her. "To take care of some trouble."
"I'll go with you," Mu Yuyan insisted, her voice firm.
Gu Lan had anticipated this. Before he could protest, she spoke again. "No, you can't go. You have something more important to do."
Before she could ask any questions, Gu Lan took out several precious pills, each radiating a potent energy.
Mu Yuyan looked puzzled, unsure of what he meant. Before she could speak, Gu Lan explained, "Our daughter were injured earlier. You have to help her recover."
Hearing his words, Mu Yuyan's face softened with concern, and she immediately took the pills. "Then you...?"
"Don't worry, I won't be in any danger," Gu Lan reassured her, his voice calm. He released his aura once more and leapt into the air, disappearing into the distance.
Hours passed before Gu Lan finally saw several figures in the distance. As the group of Bright Clan warriors sped toward their destination, Gu Lan couldn't help but sneer. He had initially planned to find them himself, but it seemed he wouldn't need to. These warriors would lead him straight to the Reincarnate Clan.
Soon, the Bright Clan members stopped in a dark corner of the Star Realm. They seemed hesitant to move forward, their expressions tense.
Gu Lan watched from a distance, puzzled. They had arrived at this location—why weren't they proceeding?
Just then, a shadow flashed from the distance, moving so quickly that Gu Lan couldn't track it at first. The figure appeared in front of the Bright Clan warriors in an instant. Gu Lan's brow furrowed—this person's speed was impressive, and he had failed to notice them earlier.
"You, from the Bright Clan, what business do you have with my Reincarnate Clan?" The figure's voice was cold and filled with authority. The air around them seemed to grow heavy with pressure.
The Bright Clan warriors, who had been standing tall before, now found themselves bowing under the weight of the power emanating from this person. Though they didn't kneel, their bodies trembled slightly in fear.
"We are here under the orders of the Divine Son, Arthur," one of the Bright Clan warriors spoke with difficulty, his forehead beading with sweat. "We seek an audience with you."
The mysterious figure's face twisted into a cruel smile. "Arthur... What does he want from us?"
The warrior stammered, "The Divine Son wishes for your assistance. He will grant any request you have in exchange for help in killing Gu Lan."
The figure's expression turned mocking. "The things you seek, Bright Clan, are not things we desire." His cold tone made it clear that he had no interest in negotiating.
The Bright Clan warriors were at a loss for words. They hadn't expected to be so swiftly rebuffed.
"Leave now, or die!" the figure ordered, his voice dark with murderous intent.
The other members of the Reincarnate Clan stood behind him, exuding an ominous aura. Their energy was palpable, and the pressure on the Bright Clan members intensified.
"Come out, friend in the shadows," the figure added, his gaze suddenly shifting toward Gu Lan's position.
Gu Lan froze for a moment, surprised that he had been detected. However, he didn't hesitate. He stepped out from the shadows, moving toward the group. "Impressive," he said, his tone emotionless. "You were able to sense me. Not bad."
The figure's eyes narrowed. Gu Lan's presence was imposing, and the tension in the air grew even thicker.
