My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty-Chapter 320: Is the High Price Purchase Fake?

"The Celestial Observing Disk can detect the hidden marks I planted, that’s only natural."

"But clearly, before entering Tianqi City today, the celestial phenomena over Tianqi City had already been concealed by the secret arts of our Elder of the Laboring Gate."

"Even if the Celestial Observing Disk is powerful, predictions about celestial phenomena made in a day should be incorrect."

"How did your Star Picking Pavilion manage to uncover my plans?" Yunlu asked, unwilling to accept the truth.

Sheng Xuzi glanced at Yunlu with a hint of mockery in his eyes.

"The Celestial Observing Disk may make mistakes, but with the guidance of my predecessors, it is absolutely infallible."

"Your petty tricks, trying to deceive the discerning eye of our elders, are simply wishful thinking."

"Although these cultivators are not yet formal disciples of my Star Picking Pavilion, they are not something your Divine Grace Sect can easily meddle with."

"Tell me, how does the Divine Grace Sect intend to take responsibility for this matter?"

"The disciples of my Star Picking Pavilion are very precious. If you dare to send assassins from the Divine Grace Sect, you must be prepared to pay the corresponding price."

As Sheng Xuzi spoke, he secretly rejoiced. He knew that the Divine Grace Sect’s intention to act against the cultivators was guided by Gu Lan.

If it weren’t for Gu Lan, he would have made a grave mistake this time! If the Divine Grace Sect succeeded and planted three spies within the Star Picking Pavilion, he couldn’t even imagine the consequences!

Upon hearing this, Yunlu hated Sheng Xuzi and his flattering senior deeply. His gaze suddenly fell on Gu Lan beside Sheng Xuzi, and he coldly spoke:

"The senior you mentioned, could it be this person?"

Sheng Xuzi was taken aback by Yunlu’s words, about to cover up for Gu Lan.

"Yes, it’s me," Gu Lan admitted calmly, stepping forward with a sudden surge of aura, causing the surrounding elders and patriarchs to tremble!

"These two have a connection with me, bring them into the city first," Gu Lan said as he approached the master and disciple.

The Immortal King of the Star Picking Pavilion naturally dared not to be negligent. Whether it was Sheng Xuzi’s attitude towards Gu Lan or Gu Lan’s overwhelming cultivation at this moment, they were enough to make them extremely cautious.

This was also the result Gu Lan wanted. Normally, he kept his cultivation hidden to avoid attracting unnecessary attention, but now it was time to show it, to intimidate other sects...

After all, there were also unsavory characters among these sects.

Before Gu Lan even approached, Yunlu was already drenched in sweat from the pressure, his mind and body filled with twice the fear, forcing him to speak hastily:

"Sheng Xuzi, I surrender."

"What compensation does the Star Picking Pavilion want, feel free to ask!"

Upon hearing Yunlu’s surrender, Sheng Xuzi became happy, his smile becoming more amiable. After receiving a nod of approval from Gu Lan, he boldly proposed a hefty compensation.

Many of the resources were specialties of the Divine Grace Sect’s territory, which Sheng Xuzi had been eyeing for a long time. Today, he had the opportunity to take advantage of it, so he naturally wouldn’t be polite...

Of course, it wasn’t necessary to ask for so much, but he still had to set aside a portion to offer to Gu Lan proactively.

Sheng Xuzi’s business principle was that money must be given respectfully! Seniors might decline, but he couldn’t refrain from giving!

Upon hearing the specific compensation, Yunlu’s expression became even uglier, but he gritted his teeth and agreed.

He asked Sheng Xuzi to remove some of the restrictions on him, and his subordinates delivered the compensation resources.

Soon, people from the Divine Grace Sect arrived by flying boat.

Just now, a powerful Emperor Realm expert forcibly abducted Yunlu, and since the dead servants of the Divine Grace Sect only followed Yunlu’s orders, most Divine Grace Sect disciples were unaware of what had happened.

Only now, after receiving the message, did they understand what had occurred.

"Let’s go!"

After receiving compensation, Yunlu immediately chose to return to the Divine Grace Sect.

He only wanted to use the Heart of the World immediately to advance the Divine Grace Sect’s small world, thus becoming a second-rate power in the Immortal Realm.

At that time, even if he couldn’t take revenge, the sect could redeem its honor! As for that guy... sigh! It’s better to stay away from him in the future!

Yunlu gritted his teeth, recalling Gu Lan’s disdainful demeanor, feeling as if his thoughts were completely blocked. He felt that as long as the other party didn’t die, he wouldn’t be able to break through to the Emperor Realm.

"A Confucian and Daoist cultivator whose strength I can’t even fathom..."

Yunlu began to contemplate how to deal with Gu Lan. Direct confrontation was basically impossible.

Even if they were of the same cultivation level, even if his physique was one in a million, Yunlu didn’t think he could confront a Confucian cultivator head-on.

With the Star Picking Pavilion protecting him, it was impossible to take his life for the time being. So, he could only find a way to disgust him...

Yunlu’s face contorted into a cold smirk as he thought of a plan. Unable to directly attack Gu Lan himself, perhaps targeting the woman beside him would suffice?

With a wave of his hand, he intended to return to his sect and make preparations!

The flying boat swiftly traversed the sky, arriving at the boundary of the Divine Grace Sect’s small world before dawn.

At this moment, the Sect Master of the Divine Grace Sect waited at the gate. Yunlu was the Sect Master’s final disciple and also his favorite.

Welcoming back his beloved disciple who returned with the Heart of the World, he naturally came to greet him, especially after hearing about the incident where an Emperor Realm expert had abducted Yunlu. He felt it necessary to show concern.

The darkness on Yunlu’s face was somewhat diluted. Despite the twists and turns of this journey, the acquisition of the Heart of the World had finally been accomplished.

As long as this task was completed, the minor mistakes he had made would be of no consequence.

"Yunlu, Immortal King!"

"I, I have something important to report!"

Just as Yunlu was about to fly off to share his joy with his master, one of his subordinates, an appraiser, hurried over.

"If you have something to say, spit it out, why are you panicking?"

Yunlu frowned and reprimanded the appraiser.

After hesitating for a long time, the appraiser finally took out the Heart of the World that he had been guarding all along.

At this moment, the appearance of the Heart of the World had changed slightly. From a seed brimming with vitality, it had turned into a somewhat diminished and less vibrant seed.

"What’s going on here!"

Yunlu became anxious, directly shaping his true energy into a large hand, lifting the appraiser by the collar with a fierce and menacing gaze.

"Give me a reasonable explanation, or you can go to your death!"

"This Heart of the World... it might be fake."

"It seems like we’ve been... deceived by the Star Picking Pavilion..."

The appraiser spoke reluctantly, his eyes filled with fear.

At that moment, the gaze of the Divine Grace Sect’s Sect Master towards Yunlu turned icy cold, and Yunlu himself felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his entire being losing its vitality.

"What did you say? How could this be fake?!"
