My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty Chapter 896: The Emergence of the Divine King Hall

Chapter 896: The Ergence of the Divine King Hall

Just as hesitation flickered across their faces, Arthur roared,

“What are you waiting for? Attack!”

These n were his subordinates—how could they be intimidated by Gu Lan?

Gu Lan, however, had no interest in these hundred so-called powerhouses. He couldn’t even be bothered to waste words on them. As they approached, his voice carried a hint of impatience.

“Girl, didn’t you want to fight? Now’s your chance.”

Gu Simu had been debating whether she should take action. Hearing this, her eyes instantly brightened.

The Hamr of Evergreen Pine materialized in her hands as she stepped forward in an instant, arriving beside Gu Lan.

“Don’t worry, Father. Not a single one of them will walk away alive!”

She swung the hamr, unleashing an overwhelming force that shook the heavens.

With just one strike, the entire battlefield trembled.

The hundred approaching warriors were forced back, and the weaker ones perished on the spot.

Initially, Gu Simu hadn’t expected her power to be so overwhelming.

But after that successful blow, her strength surged even further.

“A bunch of fools courting death. Let’s end this now.”

Her attacks beca even more ferocious, and the Hamr of Evergreen Pine radiated an unstoppable force.

While she engaged those warriors, Gu Lan made his move.

His Hongng Sword trembled, and in a flash, he struck toward Arthur’s face.

Arthur’s expression changed drastically. Without hesitation, he turned and retreated.

The hundred warriors were already as good as dead. He had to save himself first.

Despite his swift retreat, he was still injured by Gu Lan.

In just a few monts, his strength had diminished significantly.

His body trembled as he staggered backward, his face dark with humiliation.

Gu Lan did not intend to kill him right away. Instead, he looked at him coldly, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

“It’s been so long. Where is the one supporting you?”

“If they refuse to show themselves, then I’ll just send you on your way now.”

Gu Lan had already lost patience. He raised his sword and struck.

Just as the blade was about to land, a golden light suddenly descended from the heavens.

Boom!

A deafening explosion rang out, and Gu Lan was forced back two steps.

He shifted his gaze and saw a new figure standing beside Arthur.

A man clad in golden armor, gripping a long spear.

“A mber of the Divine King Hall dares to interfere?”

Gu Lan narrowed his eyes. The newcor was indeed strong.

“Since you’ve shown yourself, I won’t overstay my welco. Farewell!”

With those words, Gu Lan took a step back and disappeared.

At the sa ti, he pulled Gu Simu away with him.

There was no need to continue this fight. The Divine King Hall’s forces were formidable.

He had no intention of clashing with them head-on right now.

Besides, they hadn’t completely fallen out yet, so it was better to withdraw early.

In the blink of an eye, Gu Lan and Gu Simu had retreated thousands of miles.

After confirming they weren’t being pursued, Gu Lan finally ca to a stop.

“Father, with our strength, we could have killed that guy. Why retreat?”

Indeed, they could have won. But there was no guarantee of avoiding unexpected complications.

“It’s not the right ti to fight them yet. Let’s leave this place first.”

Gu Simu didn’t fully understand but chose not to argue.

They left swiftly, disappearing into the distance.

However, the mont they departed, a shadowy figure erged from the darkness.

Dressed in white robes, the man had a strange, eerie smile on his face.

“So you are Gu Lan? Impressive power.”

“We will et again very soon.”

At that very mont, Gu Lan felt an unusual gaze upon him.

He turned sharply, but there was nothing there.

A deep frown settled on his face, a sense of unease creeping in.

He hadn’t seen the person, but he knew for sure—their paths would cross again.

anwhile, in the Grand Hall of the Lava Clan…

Chi Yang sat with a dark expression, murderous intent flickering in his eyes.

Although they had slain many Wizard Clan warriors, their own side had suffered losses as well.

Even worse, one of their clan’s powerful warriors had been killed by Gu Lan.

Bang!

He slamd his palm on the stone table, roaring furiously,

“I will make them all pay!”

At that mont, a figure stepped into the hall.

“Why such rage?”

The voice instantly made Chi Yang restrain his fury.

“Grand Elder?”

“I heard there’s been so conflict with the Wizard Clan lately. I ca to see for myself.”

Hearing this, Chi Yang relayed everything that had happened without omission.

“Interesting… It seems we’ve underestimated them.”

“If the Wizard Clan is so eager to eliminate threats, why not use them to our advantage?”

Chi Yang frowned in confusion.

“What do you an, Elder?”

The Lava Clan Grand Elder chuckled, his expression unreadable.

“If they can make a move, so can you.”

“Send so strong warriors… and eliminate a couple of key figures in Jing Nation’s Imperial Palace.”

Though he didn’t elaborate, his aning was clear.

Chi Yang quickly understood, nodding firmly.

“Thank you for your guidance, Grand Elder!”

Rather than wasting ti in direct conflict with the Wizard Clan, why not push Gu Lan into action first?

If they could kill soone important and fra the Wizard Clan for it, the problem would solve itself.

“I’ll handle this personally,” Chi Yang declared.

To ensure success, he wouldn’t entrust this task to anyone else.

With that, he activated his energy, took a step into the void, and disappeared.

His speed was incredible, but the Lava Clan Grand Elder still had his concerns.

With a flick of his fingers, two shadowy figures erged behind him.

“Follow the young lord. Ensure nothing happens to him.”

“Yes, Elder!”

The two warriors bowed before vanishing into the night.

Their speed was equally terrifying.

—

At that mont, Gu Lan and Gu Simu had returned to the imperial palace.

Before Gu Simu could even speak, Gu Lan turned to her.

“Girl, I need you to take care of sothing for .”

Hearing this, Gu Simu tilted her head in confusion.

Gu Lan waved his hand, sending a golden light into her mind.

She paused for a mont, then quickly nodded.

“Father, don’t worry! As long as I’m here, nothing will go wrong!”

The task he entrusted her wasn’t difficult—it was to protect Mu Yuyan.

The Lava Clan and the Wizard Clan had temporarily halted their war, but no one knew what their next move would be.

Gu Lan had to be prepared. He couldn’t afford to let them take advantage of the situation.

His biggest concern at the mont wasn’t Mo Xuan—it was Chi Yang, who was already on his way.

—

Chi Yang moved swiftly, arriving at the Human World in no ti.

Floating in the sky, he gazed toward the distance.

Within monts, his eyes locked onto the Jing Nation’s Imperial Palace.

But instead of acting imdiately, he suppressed his aura and waited.
