My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty-Chapter 628 - The Subtle Use of Curses
628: The Subtle Use of Curses
628: The Subtle Use of Curses
For safety, Mu Yuyan had almost activated all the ice and snow Rule Power, freezing the entire mountain peak.
Thus, no matter how Daidai the little bookboy tried to hold an umbrella, he ultimately could not withstand such fierce wind and snow.
At first, Gu Simu would brush off the snow from her body, but after a day of this, she grew lazy and stopped.
Anyway, she wasn’t afraid of the cold; hiding in the snow allowed her to protect her father and mother.
Moreover, being completely buried in the snow with only her eyes exposed felt like a game of hide-and-seek, which she found quite amusing.
As she watched the snowflakes dance, suddenly a familiar figure appeared before her.
“Daddy!”
One of the little ‘snowmen’ immediately ran over, startling one of the little ‘snowmen’ with golden eyes.
As the ‘snowman’ moved, the snowflakes fell away, transforming into a graceful and beautiful girl.
Gu Simu reverted to her originally beautiful appearance and dove into Gu Lan’s arms.
“Daddy, Mumu misses you and Mommy so much, every day!
Why did you only come out now?
Boo…”
She clung to her father, expressing the longing and grievances of these past years.
Whenever she felt sad, Gu Simu would take out a Spirit Fruit to soothe her wounded heart, but she found that her hiding place for the Spirit Fruits was now completely empty.
She reached in, but her hands were empty.
Gu Simu cried even harder.
She cried like a child.
Even at this moment, she was still considered young.
In terms of the longevity of the cultivation world, where lives span thousands of years, she truly was just a child.
Of course, her cultivation level and combat power were far beyond those of an ordinary child.
Gu Simu’s title as the little demon king of the Six Realms had already spread widely.
“Mumu, don’t cry!
Daddy promises you that such things will never happen again!”
“Look at this!”
Gu Lan patted his daughter’s head, and a crystal-clear Spirit Fruit appeared in his hand, red and exceptionally tempting.
In his eyes, no matter how old his daughter was, she would always be a child.
When a child cried, they needed to be comforted.
He was more than familiar with the best way to cheer his daughter up.
Upon seeing the Spirit Fruit, Gu Simu’s eyes immediately lit up, and her tears stopped instantly.
Her hands were nearly as fast as her eyes; almost the moment she saw the Spirit Fruit, she snatched it into her hands at lightning speed.
Then, in a few bites, she turned a God-Tier Spirit Fruit into a pit.
“Hehe!”
After finishing, Gu Simu couldn’t help but smile widely, completely different from the sorrowful girl just moments before.
The world of the gluttonous girl was that simple and joyful.
Gu Lan showed a gentle smile and patted Gu Simu’s head.
He took out more Spirit Fruits.
“There are plenty of Spirit Fruits; eat as many as you want.”
“Mumu, while you eat, tell Daddy what has happened in the Six Realms these past years.”
“Okay!”
Gu Simu took the Spirit Fruits and smiled broadly.
In the wind and snow, Gu Simu, now only a head shorter than Gu Lan, began eating the Spirit Fruits and telling stories.
Naturally, she wouldn’t talk about the various factions in the Six Realms vying for resources; instead, she recounted the story of a group of white-eyed wolves trying to bully Lanyan Royal School but failing.
Listening quietly, Gu Lan did not interrupt.
He had a rough idea of the developments among the various factions in the Six Realms over the years.
Although it was within his expectations that the factions would become restless, he was still surprised by how far they had gone.
Especially the Beast Clan and Ghost Clan, who seemed to have undergone some changes within their ranks, shifting from being friendly with Lanyan Royal School to a hostile state.
This feeling raised a slight alert in Gu Lan.
He sensed that someone was manipulating this situation.
Even though these two great powers had lost some strength in the battle against Bright Clan, they were still among the top forces in the Six Realms.
To manipulate the two major Immortal Realm Seven Great Houses was no simple feat.
In the past, only Bright Clan Divine Son Arthur could accomplish such things.
However, Gu Lan was certain that the person behind this was not Arthur.
In this confrontation, Arthur had been injured, and his condition was more serious than Gu Lan’s; he could only retreat to the outer domain to recuperate, and it would be a while before he could return to the Six Realms.
“If it’s not Arthur, then who could it be?”
Just as Gu Lan was deep in thought, he suddenly looked up.
“Who!”
Gu Lan’s gaze instantly turned cold as he felt a sense of being spied upon.
He scanned the surroundings, only to find a vast expanse of snow and ice, with not a single figure in sight.
Gu Lan furrowed his brow; he was not just using his eyes to search but had also employed his eye technique.
In almost an instant, he had thoroughly checked Icebound Mountain inside and out.
He did not miss any cultivator here, yet he still did not sense the presence that had just been spying on him.
“Something’s not right!”
“Even if one were to tear through the void, they wouldn’t escape this quickly; there must be traces left behind!”
Gu Lan calmed down and conducted another search of Icebound Mountain.
This time, his attention was focused on the inconspicuous ice moss.
This moss, which grew in the snowy world, was found everywhere in Icebound Mountain and was one of the few ice-type plants in this icy terrain.
However, the ice moss itself was of no value, just like ordinary moss, so no one paid it any attention.
Gu Lan had seen this ice moss before in the Snow Clan Sacred Mountain.
But the ice moss in Icebound Mountain was a bit different; its vitality was exceedingly vigorous.
If it weren’t for Gu Lan having comprehended the Rule Power of Life, he would have terrifyingly overlooked this detail.
“Since you left a tail behind, it’s my fault for finding you!”
A killing intent surged in Gu Lan’s eyes.
The other party dared to spy on him here and did not even dare to show themselves; it was highly likely they were enemies, not friends.
At such a moment, he certainly wouldn’t show mercy.
“Mumu, today Daddy will teach you a new divine technique, one that can help you catch someone!”
“Mumu, watch carefully; this is the power of curses!”
Gu Lan raised his hand, and countless black patterns began to coalesce in his palm, resembling little black tadpoles.
Gu Simu, while munching on the Spirit Fruit, watched her father’s actions.
Aside from disliking reading, writing, drawing, and music…
she liked almost everything else unrelated to studying, and she had great talent for it.
The black tadpoles in Gu Lan’s hand seemed to come alive, starting to spread into the air.
The little Suan Ni, watching from the side, was immediately scared and hid behind Gu Simu.
It wasn’t that it was timid; even against enemies far stronger than itself, Fierce Beast Suan Ni would fight to the death.
But little Suan Ni was instinctively afraid; it sensed that these little black tadpoles were very dangerous.
Not only little Suan Ni, even the Mountain Back Puppet, which was usually fearless, felt fear.
