My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty
Chapter 805 - 805: Just a Clone

Young Lord Xuanyuan wore a dissatisfied expression, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

He didn't care at all about the life or death of the Grand Elder; his only concern was his reputation.

If they were to retreat now, what would the clan think of him?

Hearing his cold voice, the Second Elder's expression shifted slightly.

A brief flash of cold light flickered in his eyes, but it was only for an instant.

"Young Lord, I have a plan!"

The Second Elder's sudden words made Young Lord Xuanyuan look at him in confusion.

"Mm?"

He snorted lightly, and the Second Elder hurriedly explained.

"Although we can't do much to Gu Lan, there are plenty of people connected to him!"

He didn't finish his sentence, but his meaning was clear.

Though they couldn't defeat Gu Lan directly, they could go after his connections.

Eventually, Gu Lan would become a lamb ready for slaughter.

"Our Xuanyuan Clan is not to be treated like this!"

Young Lord Xuanyuan said coldly, but the Second Elder remained unmoved.

Since he had spoken, he knew the temperament of Young Lord Xuanyuan well.

"If we don't do this, young Lord, your reputation will be lost!"

Those words struck Young Lord Xuanyuan's heart directly, and the reluctance on his face began to change.

Killing intent poured from his eyes, and his expression turned much colder.

"Then I'll trouble the Second Elder to handle this personally!"

"Rest assured, Young Lord. I guarantee that nothing will go wrong. But I'll need the assistance of the Shadow Guardians."

This time, Young Lord Xuanyuan didn't refuse, agreeing quickly.

His true qi stirred, and with a cold wave of his hand, ten shadows appeared behind him.

"Follow the Second Elder's orders!"

With his command, the Shadow Guardians bowed respectfully.

Here, only absolute obedience was allowed; no one questioned.

The Second Elder bowed respectfully and then led the ten Shadow Guardians away.

He was heading to the Jing Nation's Imperial Palace, but he had other purposes as well.

At the Lanyan Royal School, Gu Lan's face was dark, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

Seeing his expression, Gu Simu quickly walked over.

"Father, if they dare come again, let's make sure they never return!"

Gu Simu's hatred for them was not small.

She had wanted to chase them earlier, but was stopped by Gu Lan.

And she knew that with the kind of people they were, they wouldn't give up easily.

"You girl, don't be so hasty!"

Gu Lan, in the end, was still worried about her safety.

The Xuanyuan Clan was one of the Upper Three Clans, far from the same as the people they had dealt with before.

Gu Simu was displeased but did not speak further.

Gu Lan turned to Ding True Man and said,

"Leave this place to you. I need to return to the Jing Nation Imperial Palace."

The people of the Xuanyuan Clan, he had to be cautious with.

With Ding True Man here, even if there was danger, he could handle it.

But at the Jing Nation Imperial Palace, things might not be so easy.

Those Dao soldiers were not weak, and more importantly, there were those lurking in the shadows.

Though Gu Lan had only made one move so far, he could feel it.

Those people were powerful, stronger than the so-called Dao soldiers, and their movement was highly unusual.

He hadn't yet figured out how to flush them out of the shadows.

Let alone the Zhongren and others guarding the Imperial Palace.

Once they met, Zhongren and the others would undoubtedly perish!

"Master, don't worry. I'll take care of everything here. Nothing will go wrong."

Ding True Man bowed respectfully to Gu Lan. When he looked up again, Gu Lan had already disappeared.

Watching Gu Lan speed away, Gu Simu quickly followed him.

She was the Young Lord, and Ding True Man couldn't stop her.

---

In the sky, Gu Lan's speed was incredible. In the blink of an eye, he was tens of thousands of meters away.

In just a few breaths, he arrived at the Jing Nation Imperial Palace.

He didn't rush in; instead, he stopped directly in the sky.

His gaze swept around, and with a single glance, he could see tens of thousands of miles away.

After surveying the area, Gu Lan's face darkened.

Strong warriors had indeed infiltrated, but their aura was strange.

Their power fluctuated, appearing and disappearing, so he hadn't been able to sense them clearly.

What was more troubling was that he couldn't even spot their figures.

Killing intent flashed in his eyes, and Gu Lan descended from the air.

These people would move sooner or later, it was just a matter of time.

So he would wait for them here!

As soon as he stepped into the Imperial Palace, Gu Lan suppressed his aura completely.

He had put in a lot of effort to create this false impression.

When Mu Yuyan saw him approaching, she quickly walked over.

But before she could speak, Gu Lan gently smiled and shook his head.

This action made Mu Yuyan slightly confused, and a hint of doubt appeared on her face.

But before she could say anything, Gu Lan walked in.

With a flick of his finger, true qi instantly gathered.

Gradually, a figure appeared beside Mu Yuyan.

As the figure fully materialized, Mu Yuyan's eyes widened.

The person looked exactly like her, even the aura was nearly identical.

"What is the meaning of this?"

Mu Yuyan asked in confusion, and Gu Lan smiled faintly.

"You'll understand soon. For the next few days, let her stand in for you in the Imperial Palace. You come with me to the training grounds!"

Mu Yuyan didn't fully understand, but she didn't refuse.

Since it was Gu Lan's decision, it must have had its reasons.

However, just as they were about to leave, Gu Simu suddenly walked in.

Seeing two figures that looked exactly like Mu Yuyan, Gu Simu was stunned.

"Father, why are there two of Mother?"

Gu Simu was utterly confused because the two looked identical, even their aura was the same.

"You girl, I almost forgot about you!"

Though Gu Simu's strength was considerable, preparations had to be made.

He was certain that if Xuanyuan used insidious means, he would go after people close to him.

Gu Lan's aura shifted again, and the same power was unleashed.

A figure began to form once again.

Seeing this figure appear beside him, Gu Simu's eyes widened, filled with disbelief.

"Father, this…?"

"It's just a clone."

Gu Lan said plainly, then withdrew his power and solemnly told her,

"For the next few days, you must not show yourself!"

Hearing this, Gu Simu was filled with doubt.

She still had her own strength and could handle some troubles.

But before she could speak, she noticed a change in Gu Lan's expression.

He became extremely serious, and his eyes held a faint shadow.

At this moment, Gu Simu didn't know what to say. Finally, she swallowed her words.

"Don't worry, Father."

This was the first time she had seen Gu Lan with such a look.

It was clear that this time, the trouble was not small.

After a brief familiarization, Gu Simu left.

Gu Lan and Mu Yuyan did not stay either and directly headed to the training grounds.

As soon as they stopped, Gu Lan unleashed his true qi without holding back.

The qi spread out, and golden light shone around them.

Seeing this, Mu Yuyan was filled with confusion.

"What exactly is going on? You need to explain it to me first."

After her question, Gu Lan finally relaxed his aura a little.

"Strong warriors are lying in ambush outside the palace. Their power is not weak!"
