My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty
Chapter 801 - 801: The Hostility of Hongmeng Sword

Gu Lan's aura was immense, darkening the entire sky to a gloomy shade.

But even so, the young Lord Xuanyuan still wore a look of disdain, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

"This is your last chance: submit to me, or die!"

With his icy voice, Gu Lan smiled helplessly.

"Do you think you have the right to say that?"

The arrogance of this guy made Gu Lan feel deeply uncomfortable.

With a cold voice, Gu Lan raised his hand and struck with a sword.

The harsh sound of the sword's cry echoed through the heavens, and the entire sky was engulfed by the sword's light.

Facing the incoming attack, young Lord Xuanyuan was indifferent, still wearing a look of contempt.

In his eyes, this power was not enough to harm him.

Just as the sword light was about to strike, he raised his hand and delivered a palm strike.

But he had greatly underestimated Gu Lan. These sword shadows were merely a decoy.

Suddenly, he felt a chill at his back.

Before he could turn around, Gu Lan's sword slashed from behind him.

The sound of the sword rang out, and he was knocked back tens of thousands of feet by the force of the strike.

A deep sword mark was left on his body, and his aura had dissipated.

Regaining his stance, his face darkened, and his eyes filled with fierce malice.

"Damn it, you actually managed to injure me! Today, you will pay the price!"

Gu Lan paid no heed to his roar.

The fact that this guy could block his sword wasn't due to his strength.

This man's protective treasure was formidable; if not for that, he would have died long ago!

Young Lord Xuanyuan's face twisted with fury, and his aura reappeared.

At the same time, a seven-foot sword manifested in his hand.

Upon seeing it, Gu Lan was taken aback. This was probably the legendary Xuanyuan Sword!

The power in the sword was immense, and it contained a terrifying aura.

"Not bad, you even brought out the Xuanyuan Clan's heirloom."

Young Lord Xuanyuan didn't waste time speaking further. His face was cold as he charged forward.

His aura didn't weaken in the slightest, and his eyes had turned a blood-red color.

In just a few breaths, the two of them were engaged in a fierce battle in the void.

However, as soon as Gu Lan's sword clashed with the Xuanyuan Sword, he sensed something was wrong.

This wasn't the true power of the Xuanyuan Sword. Though strong, the aura was quite different.

But he was puzzled. He could still sense a trace of the Xuanyuan Sword's aura within this weapon.

Gu Lan knew now wasn't the time to think about it.

His face darkened, and a cold light gleamed in his eyes.

Just as the man was about to get close, Gu Lan struck with his sword again.

He initially thought he would just push the man back, but Hongmeng Sword suddenly surged with a layer of blood-red light.

"Screech!"

With a sharp, tearing sound, the sword light in the sky was shattered.

The sword in young Lord Xuanyuan's hand was split in half.

"Boom!"

With an explosion, young Lord Xuanyuan was sent flying thousands of feet away.

After stabilizing himself, he looked in shock at the broken sword in his hand.

Gu Lan was somewhat stunned. When did Hongmeng Sword become this powerful?

Just as he was confused, Hongmeng Sword let out a sharp cry.

The bloodthirsty aura did not dissipate; in fact, it grew stronger.

Gu Lan felt a strong hostility from Hongmeng Sword towards the sword in the distance.

Though he didn't know exactly what had happened, he could feel that Hongmeng Sword was extremely hostile toward that weapon.

"You... how do you have such power!"

Young Lord Xuanyuan's expression darkened, his eyes now filled with murderous intent.

At the sound of his voice, Gu Lan gave a cold smile.

"This is none of your business."

Gu Lan wasn't in the mood to entertain him, flicking his hand as his true qi surged out again.

"Young Lord Xuanyuan, do you still want to continue?"

Upon hearing these cold words, young Lord Xuanyuan's face darkened further, and his expression became grave.

He knew that if he continued fighting, he would not leave unscathed.

He took two steps back and then leaped away, disappearing.

"Wait for it! I will make you pay for this, sooner or later!"

Letting him go was an unavoidable choice for Gu Lan.

He couldn't simply kill him; that would create even more trouble.

Young Lord Xuanyuan had said the harshest words, but ran the fastest.

He moved with astonishing speed, vanishing without a trace in an instant.

Unable to sense his aura, Gu Lan's face remained cold as he withdrew his energy.

As soon as Gu Lan retracted his aura, Ding True Man walked over.

His expression was a little dark, and there was still a murderous look in his eyes.

"Master, why let him go? Keeping him alive will only cause more trouble!"

"Let him go, there may still be a chance for reconciliation. If I kill him, there will be no room left for negotiation!"

Gu Lan was naturally careful, considering the implications of everything.

He couldn't act rashly. Ding True Man understood this as well, so he refrained from saying more.

Once Gu Lan had left, Ding True Man also withdrew his energy.

Though the Blood Clan was far from here, everything happening was within Xue Lengyan's sight.

She had long predicted this outcome, and she knew what would happen next!

Seeing the Xuanyuan Clan members flee in disgrace, Xue Lengyan smiled coldly and descended from the sky.

Not long after, Xue Lengyan reached the Royal School, but she didn't rush to approach. Instead, she stopped high in the air, looking down with a smile on her face.

As a member of the Immortal Realm, this was her first time visiting this place.

While Xue Lengyan was leisurely observing the surroundings, Gu Lan's voice suddenly reached her ears.

"Since you're already here, why hesitate?"

At Gu Lan's words, Xue Lengyan finally retracted her gaze and jumped down from the sky.

Her speed was impressive, and in no time, she had arrived at the Royal School.

Gu Lan wasn't cold toward her, but neither was he warm.

He glanced at her briefly before speaking slowly.

"I wonder, what brings you here?"

In response to Gu Lan's question, Xue Lengyan smiled faintly.

"The Xuanyuan Clan won't let this go, I'm just here to warn you."

"Also, I have something to discuss with you."

Upon hearing this, Gu Lan smiled faintly.

"You think I don't know what you're up to?"

Those people have their eyes on the Lanyan Royal School, and Xue Lengyan is no different.

She claimed to cooperate with him, but her real aim was the Lanyan Royal School.

"Master Gu is quite perceptive, so I won't say much more."

"I do have other intentions, but they are not related to this."

"I don't care much about the Destiny of Lanyan Royal School."

Her words made Gu Lan frown.

"If it's not for that, then what is it for?"

"Now I'm curious, what exactly brings you here? Our cooperation has already ended!"

"I can't answer you now, but you'll have a chance to know later."

Xue Lengyan chose to remain silent, her real reasons tied to the previous Blood Clan patriarch.
