My Evil Imperial Wife is Too Arrogant

A month later, Lou Mu Yan and the others arrived at a deep-sea area, and the flying magic tool stopped at sea level.

The red-haired elderly man led them out of the flying magic tool. Right now, there were some people sitting cross-legged on the sea’s surface. Judging from their clothes, they weren’t from the same clan.

“Elder Huo is here!” An elegant middle-aged man walked over with a chuckle.

When the red-haired elderly man saw the person, a smile appeared on his face, “Greetings Palace Envoy Luo!”

Then he turned to Lou Mu Yan and party and introduced: “This is Palace Envoy Luo from the Su Immortal Palace, and he is also the leader of our mission to the small spiritual world.”

“Greetings Palace Envoy Luo!”

The elegant man smiled gracefully and nodded, then said to the red-haired elderly man: “There are still a few clans who haven’t arrived yet. Elder Huo can take the pupils of Peng Ying Island to rest for a while.”

“Sure!”

After Palace Envoy Luo finished speaking, he met another wave of newly arrived clans and forces.

The red-haired elderly man had Lou Mu Yan and the others rest separately, then went to chat with some old friends.

“This time, Su Immortal Place actually sent an envoy to compete for the resources in this small spiritual world. It seems that this mission isn’t so simple, but it’s also an opportunity for us.”

After the red-haired elderly man left, the people who were more familiar with each other on Peng Ying Island also started whispering.

“The Su Immortal Palace is under the direst control of the Great Immortal Venerable, and is also the largest force in the Ling Su Immortal Realm. The small spiritual world that even they would fancy is absolutely not ordinary.”

“Right, no one from Su Immortal Palace showed up at the ancient small secret realms the last few times. This time, not only is Palace Envoy Luo taking the lead, but I also saw that genius from the Su Immortal Palace following him.”

“What, that Lou Mu Lan is here too? Where?”

The handsome young man wearing white brocade clothes over at Su Immortal Palace is Lou Mu Lan.”

“So he’s Lou Mu Lan. He’s indeed a very talented person. As expected of the most outstanding genius among the younger generation of direct bloodline pupils of Su Immortal Palace.”

“He has already reached Intermediate Immortal before fifty. I heard that he’s only one step away from Immortal Venerable¹. Such talent is one and only across the entire Ling Su Immortal Realm.”

“Not only is he extremely talented in cultivation, but he’s also a grade 13 advanced-level alchemist, with a transcendent status in Su Immortal Palace.”

“He’s also a direct bloodline descendant of Great Immortal Venerable Ling Su. His status in Su Immortal Palace is very noble. Don’t offend him after entering the small spiritual world.”

“…”

Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu originally weren’t paying attention to the person they were talking about, but they were startled when they heard the name mentioned by the several people.

Lou Mu Yan looked in the direction the man was pointing to and saw a man in white with a cool temperament and elegant figure sitting cross-legged not far away.

When she saw the man’s handsome face, Lou Mu Yan’s eyes revealed a bit of surprise.

Ming Xiu was also rather surprised.

“His appearance is actually sixty to seventy percent similar to that of Eldest Brother.” Lou Mu Yan furrowed her brows, “Even his name is very similar to ours. Could it be that he’s a member of the Lou Clan’s main family as Grandpa said?”

“It’s possible. Let’s take a closer look after entering the small spiritual world.” Ming Xiu felt that the genius of the Su Immortal Palace named Lou Mu Lan should have something to do with Lou Mu Yan.

At this moment, Lou Mu Lan, who was not far away, raised his head and looked in the direction of Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu. There was a hint of surprise in his eyes, but he quickly covered it up and returned to calmness.

After half a day, all the clans and forces participating in this expedition to the small spiritual world had arrived.

Palace Envoy Luo landed in mid-air and looked at the people below, saying: “Now that everyone has arrived, and the time is also the best, we will open up a stable channel for you and others to enter the small spiritual world, but it is expected that this channel can only last half a year at most.

“So you must come out within half a year, otherwise the small spiritual interface will collapse on its own and you may never be able to come out.”

“Yes!”

Palace Envoy Luo didn’t say anything more and looked at the Honoured Venerable strength people who came together with each clan.

Those who were present at Honoured Venerable cultivation base poured their celestial energy into an array compass tossed out by Palace Envoy Luo.

The array compass emitted a dazzling light and flew into the deep sea and disappeared.

After a cup of tea’s time, there was a sudden [rumble] sound between the heaven and the earth. Everyone watched as the deep sea below was split in half by the array compass, the sea water rolled apart, and a road under the sea loomed.

“Go, the end of the road is the entrance to the small spiritual world.” Palace Envoy Luo said to everyone.

“Yes!”

The pupils who were about to enter the small spiritual world turned into steams of light and flew towards the end of the road.

There was a white vortex at the end of the road, and Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu flew into it without hesitation.

As soon as they entered the small spiritual world, a strong celestial force spread around them, refreshing their minds.

After being introduced to the small spiritual world, the people from various clans and forces didn’t disperse. They were all concentrated at the entrance.

Looking around, there were green undulating mountains ahead, and there were a few beast roars from time to time.

“Let’s go!” People from each clan and force formed their own camps, or formed small teams, or acted alone, and left quickly and vigilantly.

Lou Mu Yan two and those from Peng Ying Island on this mission weren’t familiar with each other. Those people divided into several teams and greeted each other before leaving in different directions.

“Let’s choose a direction to go.” Ming Xiu said, holding Lou Mu Yan’s hand.

This was a newly discovered small spiritual world that had not been developed and no cultivators had ever been here before. Therefore, there was no such thing as a map and routes. One could only rely on their own feelings to find spiritual herbs and spiritual items for the mission.

There were more than thirty varieties of spiritual herbs and spiritual items for this mission. As long as they found five of them and turned them in, they could complete the mission. If one said it was hard, yes it was, but if one said it was easy, it was too.

Lou Mu Yan looked around, pointed to a thorny path that seemed to be relatively remote, and said: “Let’s take this path, there are the fewest people there.”

“Sure!” The two chose a path and flew along the lush forest.

After the two left, a group of people appeared at the entrance.

A middle-aged man noticed the man in white in front of him looking thoughtfully towards a remote thorny path. He took a step forward and asked: “Your Highness, which way should we go?”

The handsome man in white had an indifferent expression. Red flashed between his brows. After a moment, he pointed to a green and dense forest in the middle and said: “There’s something we need to find deep in this mountain forest.”

He retracted his gaze and glanced towards the mountain forest, “Let’s go.”

More then a dozen cultivators behind him immediately followed.

After Lou Mu Lan and his party left, more than thirty people hiding not far away came out of the vortex.

One of the men with dark patterns on his face walked to the front, turned to a young man wearing dark green clothes who stood with his hands behind his back, and asked in a hoarse voice: “Young Lord, Lou Mu Lan and the others are heading in that direction, should we follow now?”

The young man’s eyes revealed a bit of amusement and he said with a faint smile: “Follow, we must kill him this time.”

Their main mission in entering the small spiritual world this time was to kill Lou Mu Lan—finding spiritual herbs and spiritual items was secondary.

“Yes!”

¹author used 仙尊 instead of 尊者 like before, so I also changed it a bit. Same thing pretty sure, since that’s what’s above Intermediate Immortal.
