My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty-Chapter 326: Guardian of the Tomb

As Mu Yuyan spoke, the icy chill emanating from her became even more pronounced. A faint glimmer of ice-blue snowflake mark appeared on her brow.

The moment the snowflake mark emerged, the temperature within the entire array space plummeted, and even the evil spirits could feel a chilling sensation piercing deep into their souls.

The transformation upon Mu Yuyan was not yet complete; she was enveloped in swirling ice and snow, her garments billowing around her.

The iridescent fairy skirt shifted in tune with her aura, transitioning from red to blue, resembling a garment crafted from azure ice crystals.

Transformed into an ice and snow fairy, coupled with her innate imperial aura, she exuded a presence that commanded all beings to submit.

She gazed upon the assembly of evil spirits and softly inquired, "Do you also wish to become my subjects?"

"Chirp chirp!"

Hearing Mu Yuyan’s voice, these evil spirits became even more excited!

Gu Lan was utterly baffled! Subjects? What in the world?

However, it seemed that some of the larger evil spirits could comprehend Mu Yuyan’s words.

Mimicking the manner of Human Clan subjects bowing to their monarch, some of the larger evil spirits clumsily prostrated themselves before Mu Yuyan.

It was evident that it was their first time kneeling, as their posture was far from neat.

On the sidelines, Gu Lan was left dumbfounded. He couldn’t understand the language of the evil spirits but could comprehend Mu Yuyan’s words.

"Madam seems to be expanding her dominion in the Immortal Realm!"

"And her transformation is truly breathtaking. It seems that the predecessor of the Snow Clan’s holy maiden was also exceptionally beautiful. Coupled with these special effects... hmm, this surpasses that thing from a previous life by tens of thousands of times, doesn’t it?"

"Her cultivation even seems to have improved after the transformation, impressive..."

Gu Lan thought with delight. He could discern that the changes in Mu Yuyan were due to the inheritance of the Snow Clan’s holy maiden, but he was unaware of the connection between the Snow Clan’s holy maiden inheritance and these evil spirits.

Just as the larger evil spirits were kneeling before Mu Yuyan, the other evil spirits behind suddenly parted like a tide, allowing a giant malevolent spirit the size of a small mountain to step into the array.

This colossal malevolent spirit exuded a formidable aura, slightly inferior to Mu Yuyan’s, and its strength reached the Emperor Realm! However, the colossal malevolent spirit seemed unsettled, exhibiting a mix of excitement and fear.

Gu Lan silently observed it, puzzled by its intentions.

The Hongmeng Sword suspended beside him trembled slightly, emitting a faint hum.

This place was very close to the Spirit Gathering Immortal Valley, surrounded by deathly qi. If the colossal malevolent spirit were to go berserk, it might disrupt the surrounding array formations. Thus, Gu Lan merely intercepted it.

Sensing Gu Lan’s subtle chill, the colossal malevolent spirit shuddered, its demeanor displaying some fear. Malevolent spirits were born from deathly qi and were most sensitive to souls.

In its perception, Gu Lan possessed an incredibly powerful and terrifying soul, akin to a top-tier malevolent spirit capable of devouring it at any moment.

After all, in the eyes of evil spirits, larger evil spirits devouring smaller ones was a common occurrence.

The smaller evil spirits feared being consumed by the larger ones. It, as the evil spirit king of this realm, also feared being devoured by Gu Lan.

At this moment, the evil spirit king turned to Mu Yuyan, restraining the impulse to flee and opening its blood-stained maw to speak: "I... I mean no harm!"

Despite its fearsome appearance, the voice of the evil spirit king sounded delicate, like that of a child. Unlike the usual gibberish of evil spirits, it spoke the language of the Human Clan.

Finally, a malevolent spirit that spoke human language!

Gu Lan was somewhat pleased, and his gaze towards the evil spirit king softened slightly.

However, this glance terrified the evil spirit king, thinking Gu Lan intended to devour it.

Malevolent spirits often regarded the gaze directed at them by predators as somewhat kind!

The evil spirit king trembled and took a step back, its blood-red pupils, akin to lanterns, filled with fear.

"Please... spare me! I am not an ordinary malevolent spirit; I am the guardian of this realm. I am protecting the master of the tomb!"

Seemingly recalling its duty, the evil spirit king summoned a hint of courage.

As if reminded of something, its colossal body bowed before Mu Yuyan.

"We pay homage to the holy master!"

With a bow from the evil spirit king, the other evil spirits followed suit in unison, bowing down.

In the vast array of space, evil spirits of all sizes bowed before two Human Clan cultivators, a scene that seemed discordant in every aspect.

However, upon hearing the title of "holy master", Gu Lan understood the reason behind it and sheathed the Hongmeng Sword.

"Why are you all stationed here?" Mu Yuyan raised her hand, gesturing for the evil spirits to rise, while new memories flooded her mind.

These evil spirits before her were once guardians of the Snow Clan in the Immortal Realm.

However, why they were now guarding the remnants of immortal spirits in the Spirit Gathering Immortal Valley remained a mystery, something that needed clarification.

"We are guardians of the tomb, tasked with preserving the aura of the tomb master..." The evil spirit king explained.

"I have been slumbering for a long time. If it weren’t for sensing the aura of Mu Yuyan, I would have remained asleep. Thus, I am deeply grateful to Mu Yuyan. However, my slumber lasted too long, and I have forgotten many things, even the identity of the tomb master. As a guardian of the tomb, I only need to remember my duty.

I usually guard silently, concealing the tomb master’s aura with the malevolent spirit’s aura, only appearing when the array formation is under attack."

Listening quietly, Gu Lan finally understood why Chen Feng had been attacked by evil spirits upon entering the Spirit Gathering Immortal Valley.

That fellow was just unlucky, banging his head against the array a few times, attracting a malevolent spirit, nearly being devoured by it.

Likewise, the Blissful Immortal Palace’s lord and his companion were surrounded by evil spirits because their reckless attacks disrupted the array formation of the Spirit Gathering Immortal Valley.

The "holy master" mentioned by the evil spirit king referred to the Snow Clan’s holy maiden or holy son of previous generations.

"Although I do not know when the holy master experienced his trials, I can faintly sense that the holy master now possesses the aura of an emperor. By bestowing a strand of dragon aura, the holy master can assist me in breaking free from my shackles and prolonging my lifespan! I implore... the holy master to accept me as a servant!"

As the evil spirit king spoke, its words became increasingly fluent, and its posture of kneeling became more skilled. It did not beat around the bush, directly stating its greatest desire.

"Agreed," Mu Yuyan nodded.

"Monarchs of the mortal realm possess the aura of emperors; the stronger the nation, the richer the emperor’s aura. With a strand of emperor’s dragon aura, I gain a servant of Emperor Realm. It’s an incredibly profitable deal!"

Even Gu Lan, standing by, couldn’t help but envy his wife’s Destiny.

Moreover, the evil spirit king was originally a guardian spirit of the Snow Clan, always loyal to the Snow Clan’s holy maiden, and possessed formidable strength.

With such a powerful being offering itself, there was no reason not to accept it into her ranks.

Seeing Mu Yuyan’s agreement, the evil spirit king was overjoyed, and a contract formation spontaneously formed on its forehead.

"The holy master only needs to send a strand of the emperor’s dragon aura into the formation to complete the contract. With the contract established, I will forever remain loyal to my master!"

With respectful obeisance, the evil spirit king knelt, and without hesitation, Mu Yuyan pointed her finger, sending a strand of the emperor’s dragon aura into the contract formation.

With the contract completed, Mu Yuyan felt a connection between herself and the evil spirit king. In her perception, the evil spirit king was exceedingly loyal.

At the same time, she gained the power to determine its life and death with a single thought.

"Thank you, my master!"
