My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty
Chapter 841 - 841: Ancient God Clan Secret Place

Originally, Gu Lan had no expectations of this guy, and he dismissed his words as nonsense.

But to Gu Lan's surprise, Shadow spoke thoughtfully.

"I've heard of it before. They say this thing can cleanse the body of all corrupting energy!"

With this statement, Gu Lan's interest was piqued.

"Do you know where it is?"

Upon hearing this, Shadow shook his head.

The hope that Gu Lan had just kindled was immediately dashed, and he let out a helpless sigh.

"But I remember, the previous Lord of the Xuanyuan Clan came here once. What a pity!"

As he said this, Shadow couldn't help but sigh.

"He actually came here!"

Gu Lan was also somewhat surprised. Had he known, he wouldn't have killed that guy.

But that wasn't for him to decide; the body back then was no longer under his control!

When he killed the Lord of the Xuanyuan Clan, he was still somewhat conscious, but he was extremely weak by then!

Gu Lan didn't linger on this matter; he redirected his energy and moved forward.

Since he didn't know where the place was, he could only go search for it now.

Only by finding the item would he have a slim chance of survival.

He could feel that the seal within his body wouldn't last much longer.

If he didn't hurry, the Blood Demon would appear at any moment.

Just as he moved a hundred feet forward, Shadow followed him.

But this time, Shadow kept his distance, not daring to approach him as he did before.

Gu Lan didn't care. What this guy did was no concern of his!

This time, Gu Lan slowed his pace considerably, releasing his true energy as he moved.

He didn't know how much time had passed before he stopped in a section of the void.

Descending from the air, Gu Lan and Shadow entered a secret place.

The moment they stepped in, the sight before them froze them in place.

Before them lay what seemed to be a paradise, and in addition to that, the true energy in the air was exceptionally dense!

"I didn't expect the Ancient God Clan to have a place like this!"

Gu Lan was also somewhat shocked, his eyes scanning the surroundings.

He thought the Ancient God Clan's territory would be very remote, but he never imagined it would contain such a secret place.

"Let's split up. If you find the Mind-Clearing Spring, notify me immediately!"

He came here only for the Mind-Clearing Spring. He wasn't interested in anything else.

After leaving these words, he leapt into the air.

He transformed into a blur and disappeared.

Shadow was stunned.

"You're not from my Wizard Clan, I won't obey you!"

But as soon as he said this, he regretted it.

A sword light had unknowingly pressed against his back.

"It's not too late to take those words back!"

Feeling the chill behind him, he forced a smile on his face.

"I was just joking, don't take it so seriously!"

Under Gu Lan's strong pressure, he had no choice but to obey.

He shot Gu Lan an unwilling glance, then activated his cultivation.

Though he didn't want to listen to Gu Lan, what other choice did he have?

If he didn't, it would be a dead end!

Inside this secret place, Gu Lan's speed was incredibly fast.

But after a long while, he still hadn't found the so-called Mind-Clearing Spring!

He stopped at a cliff and spoke coldly, "Could it not be here?"

Even if the Mind-Clearing Spring wasn't here, there should be other things.

After all, the true energy here was extremely powerful, so something else might be nurtured.

Since he had come this far, he naturally couldn't leave empty-handed.

While Gu Lan was feeling the energy around him, a strange aura suddenly caught his attention.

His face darkened, and he immediately summoned the Hongmeng Sword.

"Is there someone else here?"

With confusion on his face, Gu Lan quickly advanced.

Gu Lan's speed was astonishing, and in an instant, he arrived at a dense forest.

The power he had sensed earlier came from this direction, and Gu Lan's face darkened as his gaze swept quickly around.

At that moment, he saw a shadow.

This person's speed was so fast that even Gu Lan couldn't clearly see them!

Gu Lan's face grew darker, and he swung his hand, releasing a sword strike!

"Chi!"

A sharp sword cry rang out, and a sword light shot toward the distance.

But to his surprise, his strike failed to harm the person, nor did it stop them!

Gu Lan was somewhat puzzled.

Though his power had been somewhat drained, it shouldn't have been this ineffective.

His expression grew darker as he sped forward.

In this forest, Gu Lan wouldn't be affected by the terrain.

Not long after, he noticed a shadow in the distance.

Without a word, he raised his hand and struck.

The sword cry rang out, and a single sword strike sent the figure flying a hundred feet away.

But when he saw the person's face, Gu Lan was completely dumbfounded.

"How is it you?"

Gu Lan was shocked; the one who took his strike was none other than Shadow.

Shadow, too, looked innocent and surprised. He hadn't expected to be struck by Gu Lan for no reason!

"Master Gu, what are you doing here?"

Though he was displeased, he couldn't show it and asked Gu Lan with confusion.

Gu Lan's face darkened slightly as he replied,

"I saw a figure just now!"

Upon hearing this, Shadow's eyes widened.

"You saw them too? I followed that figure here!"

Shadow had also been led to this place by a black shadow.

But when he arrived here, he could no longer sense their presence.

After that, he was struck by Gu Lan's sword!

Upon hearing this, Gu Lan's face darkened further.

"It seems someone did this on purpose!"

"The Ancient God Clan's people have been sealed away, how could they still be...?"

As Shadow spoke, he cautiously scanned his surroundings, fear creeping onto his face.

If anyone from the Ancient God Clan were still alive, it would be troublesome.

He had witnessed the power of the Ancient God Clan's experts before, and their strength was terrifying.

"What does it matter if they're alive? We'll just kill them!"

Gu Lan's expression was cold as he waved the Hongmeng Sword, causing countless sword lights to flicker in the air.

"If they don't come out, I'll destroy this place!"

Gu Lan's voice was icily cold, and there was an unmistakable killing intent in his eyes.

The movement of the mysterious figure was strange, and he didn't know where they had gone.

Now, he had no choice but to use this method to force them out.

When Shadow saw the aura Gu Lan emitted, his face tightened, and he quickly ducked aside.

At this moment, a layer of blood energy gradually appeared around Gu Lan.

He felt that it was better not to confront this power head-on; he couldn't withstand it!

As Gu Lan's icy voice echoed, two black shadows suddenly flashed out from the distance.

At the same moment, sword lights descended from the heavens.

But to Gu Lan's surprise, the two figures dodged with incredible ease.

The sword lights were terrifying, yet the two figures were completely unaffected.

...

After a few breaths, the sword lights dissipated, and the two black figures were completely unharmed.

Gu Lan's face darkened, his eyes flashing with cold light.

These two figures dodging his attack was indeed unexpected!

"Interesting!"

Gu Lan coldly murmured, no longer intending to strike. He sheathed the Hongmeng Sword.

"I wonder who you two are?"
