My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty

Chapter 151 Dragon Clan's Gift; Millennium Night Pearl

In the night, a vigorous voice echoed, resounding over the capital of the Great Jing!

"Consecrator, may I have a conversation with you?"

"I am Long Shi, representing the entire Dragon Clan to express our gratitude!"

Dragon Sovereign spoke!

His words were mixed with majestic dragon might, shaking the hearts of the people and cultivators in the capital!

"He's here to find our Consecrator... But who is Long Shi? Does this old man have the qualifications to approach the number one figure in the Great Jing?"

"Bro, the Dragon Sovereign in the East Sea is named Long Shi! Are you really ignorant or pretending to be?"

"Oh, then he has some qualifications, cough..."

"Dragon Sovereign hasn't shown up in the East Sea for hundreds of years. Why would he suddenly come to the capital of the Great Jing, saying he's here to thank our Consecrator?"

"I don't know, these things between the powerhouses are not what we should be concerned about. But it seems that Dragon Sovereign wants to curry favor with our Consecrator, and we can sleep soundly tonight!"

...

The spirits of the people were uplifted!

The gaze towards the Dragon Clan was filled with friendliness.

And the powerful figures of the Dragon Clan looked down at the people of the Great Jing with gentle eyes, without the usual arrogance of divine beasts.

In the next moment, the space behind the Dragon Clan slightly distorted, and Gu Lan's upright figure slowly appeared. His clothes fluttered, and his aura was transcendent!

Seeing his appearance, the people in the capital, after a moment of stunned silence, immediately fell into excitement and fervor!

"It's Consecrator! Oh my, I thought he wouldn't show up. I didn't expect him to actually come!"

"Unfortunately, it's too far to see his face. But according to those apprentice who came back from Heaven Mountain, Consecrator has quite a distinguished demeanor!"

"We can't see his face, but witnessing this conversation with the Dragon Sovereign is an honor! Those who decided to sleep early tonight will regret it!"

...

In the sky above, the moonlight was ethereal.

Gu Lan, with a polite greeting, said, "Senior Dragon Sovereign."

Long Shi, feeling Gu Lan's aura up close, narrowed his pupils again. "Initially, Hanyi told me that your age is only in the twenties, and I didn't believe it... but now it seems that I, an old man, have been too narrow-minded!"

"Dragon Sovereign is joking. It's just luck..."

Just got luck with a system... Gu Lan smiled blandly.

"With your identity and cultivation, it seems that Qin'er's news is almost certain..."

Experience more content on empire

Taking a deep breath, Long Shi whispered to his granddaughter by his side, "Present the gift to Consecrator!"

Ao Hanyi nodded lightly, and ripples emerged in the space as she stepped forward to Gu Lan, presenting a spatial Spirit Ring.

"Sir, this is the gift from our Dragon Clan. The ring contains treasures from the East Sea. We hope you like it!"

Long Shi laughed loudly.

Most of the items inside were precious treasures beneficial for cultivation, as well as many spiritual weapons from the East Sea. Gu Lan glanced roughly. Although the ring was small, its richness surpassed many large sects in the Great Jing!

I wonder if there's a 'Fixed Ocean Divine Needle' in the East Sea of this world... Gu Lan took the ring and let his thoughts wander.

At this moment, Ao Hanyi did not withdraw. Instead, she took out a night pearl as brilliant as the stars and spoke slowly:

"Sir, this millennium night pearl is a gift that Hanyi wanted to give you. Thank you for informing my aunt Hanyi's news. It already possesses some spirituality. Speaking of which, its function is somewhat related to the Tianji Pavilion behind you..."

Night Pearl!

Women all love jewelry; the Lady should like this... Gu Lan's heart stirred, without being overly courteous.

"It's better to accept with respect than to decline. Many thanks, Miss Hanyi."

Gu Lan smiled and waved his sleeve. Both the Night Pearl and the Spirit Ring were received into the space of the system.

Ao Hanyi wanted to explain the origin and function of the Millennium Night Pearl, but seeing him accept them so readily, she laughed and then gracefully retreated behind Dragon Sovereign.

"By accepting our Dragon Clan's goodwill, I can rest assured!"

Dragon Sovereign said with a slow smile. This time, he personally came from the East Sea, primarily due to the Demon God City and the Immortal Cliff. However, the biggest reason was his concern that, without his intervention, Gu Lan might think the Dragon Clan was not sincere enough.

"Senior, you worry too much. I have always been easy to talk to."

Gu Lan also knew that the Dragon Clan's heavy courtesy was not merely a response to the news of the Immortal Cliff. There was a clear intention to establish a connection with him.

Gu Lan's straightforwardness also gave Dragon Sovereign enough face.

Dragon Sovereign's face reddened with a smile. "In that case, I won't delay you any longer. We also have important matters to attend to... If you have time in the future, we sincerely hope that you can visit our East Sea!"

"Sure."

Gu Lan nodded. The two then bid farewell.

Dragon Sovereign, along with his attendants, bowed together. The sound of whistling winds and soaring clouds echoed in the sky. The people squinted their eyes as they saw a massive shadow moving toward the west on the clouds.

What disappeared along with it was the figure they revered as divine in green clothes.

Once they realized Gu Lan was gone, the people couldn't help but sigh.

"That was too short. I thought Dragon Sovereign and Consecrator would have a lengthy discussion!"

"Yeah, yeah! My engraved stone only recorded a few breaths of time. Well, it should be enough..."

"Oh my! Did you guys notice? East Sea Dragon Sovereign not only gave gifts, but when he left, he also bowed, obviously acknowledging our Consecrator as a superior!"

"No need to say, I've said it before. Even in front of Dragon Sovereign, he only has a little qualification when facing our number one figure in the Great Jing!"

"Uh, Dragon Sovereign might not have gone far."

"That, that... what I meant is, after today, the relationship between the Great Jing and the Dragon Clan is an alliance. I don't think there's a need to distinguish who is higher or lower! Haha..."

...

Gu Lan naturally had no knowledge of the admiration and excitement of the people in the capital when he appeared. At this moment, after entering the backyard of the Residence, he quietly pushed open the door of the bedroom and walked slowly to the side of Mu Yuyan, who was sitting quietly by the window.

"Hmm? Master Gu..."

Mu Yuyan noticed Gu Lan and immediately snapped out of her thoughts. The slight furrow between her delicate eyebrows eased, and the gentle expression replaced the previous one in her beautiful eyes.

"Madam, is something bothering you tonight?"

Gu Lan, concerned about the night chill, gently closed the window with a thought and draped a snow-white fox fur robe over Mu Yuyan.

"I..."

Mu Yuyan's rosy lips opened slightly. She hadn't expected Gu Lan to be so observant and notice her unusual mood so quickly. It was mainly because they knew each other too well.

She was momentarily speechless.

"This thing was presented by the Dragon Clan just now. I thought girls should like it, so consider it the first gift I give to my wife!"

Gu Lan took out the Millennium Night Pearl, dazzling and radiant, reflecting Mu Yuyan's peerless beauty even more brightly and enchantingly.

Speaking of which, Gu Lan felt a bit guilty. When they fell in love at first sight, they didn't go through the usual courtship rituals. They simply agreed on a lifetime commitment.

During the more than a year in Langzhou, Mu Yuyan had handmade many gifts for him, but he had never expressed his feelings in return.

In the past, in another lifetime, they might have broken up a hundred times over such neglect.

"Thank you."

Mu Yuyan's bright eyes sparkled. Her fair and jade-like hand lifted the Night Pearl, feeling the slight coolness on the surface. A warm sensation filled her heart, alleviating some of the turbulent emotions.

"If you encounter anything unpleasant, talk to me. Don't keep it to yourself."

Gu Lan looked seriously into her eyes, his fingertips gliding over her silky green hair.

"Okay."

Mu Yuyan glanced back and responded with a slightly complicated expression. When it came to sharing concerns with court officials, the female Emperor felt it was only natural. However, when it came to Gu Lan, she suddenly felt reluctant...
