My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty

Bright Temple exerted significant effort in sealing extraterrestrial entities. The locations where gods, immortals, and demons sealed extraterrestrial entities all bore the unique light-sealing marks left by Bright Temple.

With these light-sealing marks in place, it became exceedingly difficult for extraterrestrial entities to break free from their confines.

Even in the Immortal Realm, where Bright Temple remained vigilant in its duties, sending reinforcements to strengthen the seals at various intervals, extraterrestrial entities still managed to slip through over the years.

Some of the seal points in the Immortal Realm had not been affected by any battles or natural disasters, yet they mysteriously showed signs of loosening, allowing a few extraterrestrial entities to escape.

Listening intently, Gu Lan sensed that something was amiss. He inquired about the timing of the loosening of the Immortal Realm seals and found it suspiciously close to the ascension of the current Immortal Realm deity...

This revelation sparked intrigue. "Senior Feng Yang, there's something peculiar," Gu Lan began, his tone grave.

"The loosening of the Immortal Realm seals, and the emergence of extraterrestrial entities... with the governance of the divine progeny by Bright Temple, known for their unique restraint over extraterrestrial entities, one would expect some action from them, wouldn't you?"

Upon hearing Gu Lan's query, Emperor Feng Yang's expression grew solemn. He did not respond to Gu Lan's question because, despite the periodic reinforcement of the seals by Bright Temple, no further actions had been taken.

Despite the ongoing reinforcement, the seals were becoming increasingly unstable. As the ruler of the Immortal Realm, Emperor Feng Yang bore the responsibility of safeguarding it and harbored suspicions about Bright Temple. Your journey continues on My Virtual Library Empire

However, lacking evidence, no one could challenge Bright Temple, nor dared to.

After a moment of silence, Emperor Feng Yang steered the conversation away from this topic and praised Gu Lan's mastery of formations, shifting the focus to the improvements of the Sanxing Peak formation.

Gu Lan, understanding the implications, joined in the discussion earnestly, discussing how to enhance the Sanxing Peak formation.

He showed particular interest in the Celestial Starry Formation's incomplete array, recognizing its potential to fortify the defenses of the Jing Nation.

Meanwhile, Gu Xiaoqi found herself intrigued by the notion of extraterrestrial entities. Watching the dark figures etched into the stone, she pondered when she could capture one with her master and perhaps roast it for a peculiar delicacy.

It resembled an octopus, she mused, perhaps with a surprisingly palatable flavor. She entertained the thought of preserving it until the next encounter with Zhe Liang and Zhongren, as well as the little demon in her master's household...

As Gu Lan and the others delved into discussions about formations, it all seemed like an enigma to Gu Xiaoqi. Unable to comprehend a single word, she felt inclined to doze off.

Instead, she gravitated toward Mu Yuyan and Feng Ruoxue, observing their conversation about Gu Lan with curiosity, her dark eyes darting around with various peculiar thoughts.

Feng Ruoxue, uncertain of her role in Mu Yuyan's presence—whether as a friend, elder, or something else—usually found herself listening while Mu Yuyan spoke eloquently, making her, an ancient being with vast knowledge, feel somewhat awkward.

Eventually, Feng Ruoxue found herself probing into Gu Lan's affairs, prompted not by her own curiosity but by Mu Yuyan's frequent mentions of him, which stirred an inexplicable feeling within her.

"I... when I first met the gentleman, I did not know he was a cultivator. I simply thought of him as an ordinary scholar, much like scholars across the realm, a scholar with a heart for the world, a scholar who cares for the people..."

In front of Feng Ruoxue, Mu Yuyan remained poised. As she recounted her past encounters with Gu Lan, her eyes were filled with warmth and happiness.

Watching Mu Yuyan's blissful demeanor, Feng Ruoxue felt a myriad of emotions but found herself speechless.

Observing the two's interaction, Gu Xiaoqi's mind conjured various scenes reminiscent of classic storytelling tropes. Watching the drama unfold was more enjoyable than listening to ancient texts.

On the other side, upon hearing Gu Lan's suggestions for improving the Sanxing Peak formation, especially learning that the refinement would increase the concentration of star power around Sanxing Peak by fifty percent, Emperor Feng Yang was delighted.

The formation of a blessed land was not achieved overnight; it required massive investments of resources.

Even upgrading a small world required treasures like the Heart of the World, let alone the naturally blessed land like Sanxing Peak, which demanded even more terrifying resources.

Gu Lan's modest improvements to the formations resulted in significant enhancements for the Sanxing Peak, leaving Emperor Feng Yang deeply grateful.

This further affirmed his decision to befriend Gu Lan, echoing the prophecy of his old friend, the Star Picking Pavilion's master, regarding Gu Lan's significance.

"Friend Gu, if you wish to obtain the Exterminate Evil Order, there is naturally no issue," Emperor Feng Yang declared.

"I have already instructed for the highest-grade Exterminate Evil Orders to be sent immediately. With high-grade Exterminate Evil Orders, cultivators can mobilize a significant portion of the Immortal Realm's power and resources regarding extraterrestrial entities matters, which concern the safety of the Six Realms. If you have any needs, do not hesitate to ask."

Upon hearing Gu Lan's desire to apply for an Exterminate Evil Order, Emperor Feng Yang promptly arranged for the highest-grade Exterminate Evil Order to be delivered.

He also learned of Gu Lan's intention to visit the Demon Realm. Thus, Emperor Feng Yang retrieved a golden token from his storage artifact, bearing the inscription "Heaven Emperor Personally Arrives!"

"This is my Heaven Emperor Edict. With this token, Friend Gu can move freely within the Immortal Realm without hindrance from any faction. Even in the Demon Realm, this token will provide security for most territories," Emperor Feng Yang explained.

"The few old monsters in the Demon Realm will also have to give me some face. Friend Gu, please do not refuse... Your improvements to the Sanxing Peak formation have already placed me in your debt. If you do not accept this token of appreciation, I fear I may not be able to ask for your help in the future."

Upon hearing Emperor Feng Yang's earnest plea, Gu Lan accepted the Heaven Emperor Edict. With this token, he could indeed avoid much trouble.

Emperor Feng Yang's reputation resounded not only in the Immortal Realm but also in the Demon Realm, where it was established through tangible achievements.

The top cultivators of the Demon Realm might be rebellious, but they respected strength. Several of the Demon Realm's top experts had been subdued by Emperor Feng Yang.

Of course, Gu Lan could also subdue them himself, but that would not only cause friction but also ruin the elegance of enjoying mountains and waters with his wife.

Accepting the token, Gu Lan approached Mu Yuyan. At this moment, Feng Ruoxue, after listening to the Empress's slightly affectionate recounting, once again changed her impression of Gu Lan.

She couldn't help but glance at Gu Lan with renewed interest. Suddenly, at his waist, Cloud Clan Goddess caught sight of a very familiar object.
