My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty-Chapter 361: Immortal Demon Alliance
Outside the Treasure Pavilion.
"Integrate!"
Gu Xiaoqi spewed phoenix flames, while Gu Lan assisted in controlling the flames, refining one piece of bodily material after another.
Simultaneously refining, they gradually condensed the materials into a humanoid form.
On the side, the two Demon Clan princesses and the steward of the Treasure Pavilion were all dumbfounded. They had never seen anyone refine materials like this—without using an alchemical cauldron or borrowing earthly fire, just using the pure power of phoenix flames to completely refine these extremely precious materials, without a trace of impurities visible!
Such control over power was something that even the strongest artifact refiners in the Demon Realm would feel inferior to upon seeing.
You see, phoenix fire is one of the most domineering flames in the world. The fact that it could be used to refine materials so steadily far exceeded their cognitive limits.
If Gu Xiaoqi knew their thoughts, she would surely roll her eyes at them. When she was in the mortal realm, she could control phoenix fire well enough to cook, let alone refining these high-end materials.
Moreover, with Gu Lan watching beside her, there was basically no chance of any problems arising.
"Friend Gu, if you manage to get the materials, please come and visit the Demon Palace of No Start..."
Just as Gu Lan was about to completely refine the bodily materials, a voice transmission arrived through the Heaven Emperor’s command from Feng Yang Emperor.
Upon hearing the message, Gu Lan learned of the existence of a magic pool within the Demon Palace of No Start.
Immediately, after finishing the refining of the last material, he took his group and headed straight for the Demon Palace of No Start.
Before long, everyone appeared before a magic pool.
The Demon King of No Start and Feng Yang Emperor were on the side, activating the magic pool to its maximum extent.
Seeing this, Gu Lan knew there was no time to be polite. He took out the bronze magic coffin and released the weakened soul of Chiyang Saint Sovereign.
As soon as the soul emerged from the magic coffin, the energy from the magic pool quickly enveloped it.
Nourished by the energy of the magic pool, the soul of Chiyang Saint Sovereign regained some of its vitality.
Seizing this opportunity, Gu Lan placed the newly refined body into the magic pool and slowly guided the soul of Chiyang Saint Sovereign to merge into it.
This process lasted for a stick of incense’s worth of time before the soul of Chiyang Saint Sovereign and the new body merged into one.
However, it would take another seven days for them to completely integrate.
Once the integration was complete, Chiyang Saint Sovereign would be able to awaken, possibly even advancing further in cultivation.
After all, whether it was the bodily materials or this magic pool from this place, both were extremely precious.
Especially with the two Heaven Emperor realm individuals stimulating the energy of the magic pool, it was also a significant opportunity for Chiyang Saint Sovereign.
"Thank you both!"
After completing everything, Gu Lan immediately thanked Feng Yang Emperor and the Demon King of No Start.
At the same time, he made a mental note of this favor.
Once the soul of Chiyang Saint Sovereign stabilized, he planned to resolve the issue of the seal point in the Demon God Prison as soon as possible.
"Young friend, you’re too polite!"
"It’s just a small favor, no need to take it to heart," replied Demon King of No Start politely, though his gaze remained fixed on the bronze magic coffin that Gu Lan had not put away.
"Is the Demon King interested in this magic coffin?" Gu Lan saw this and didn’t intend to conceal anything. Seeing Demon King of No Start nod approvingly, he briefly recounted the process of suppressing the Initial Demon in the Initial Demon City.
Upon learning that the Initial Demon had escaped from the Demon God Prison and secretly went to the Lower Realm, a hint of killing intent flashed in Demon King of No Start’s eyes. The former Initial Demon Emperor hadn’t done anything good in the Demon Realm, and at that time, Demon King of No Start had quite a grudge against him.
Back then, various issues arose in the Demon Realm, and Demon King of No Start had important matters to handle, so he had no choice but to seal the Initial Demon in the Demon God Prison. Otherwise, Demon King of No Start wouldn’t have allowed him to live to this day.
Upon hearing that Gu Lan had already dealt with the Initial Demon’s Demonic Soul, Demon King of No Start also thanked him sincerely.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Feng Yang Emperor asked about the extraterrestrial entities in the Demon God Prison. From Gu Lan’s words, he deduced that all the creatures in the Demon God Prison had been infected with Evil Infection. Such widespread Evil Infection clearly indicated that extraterrestrial entities had broken the seal.
Such a situation was outrageous—Bright Temple’s guards had chosen to conceal it. Even the seal points in the Demon Realm, right under the nose of the City of No Start, were treated this way by Bright Temple.

Thinking about how severe the situation might be at the seal points of other small worlds, Feng Yang Emperor dared not imagine...
Gu Lan naturally didn’t conceal any of these details. He even mentioned the incidents of killing several Bright Temple angels one by one. After all, everyone didn’t have a good impression of the Bright Clan, so mentioning it now allowed him to observe if anyone was speaking with a forked tongue.
"Young friend, you have shown great righteousness. Please accept my bow!" Upon hearing of Gu Lan’s exploits, Feng Yang Emperor was initially surprised but then stood up and bowed respectfully to Gu Lan.
On the side, Demon King of No Start hadn’t expected Gu Lan to have such courage. He was slightly stunned for a moment, but his gaze soon became resolute.
"As for the angels, young friend, there’s no need to worry!"
"This matter is entirely Bright Temple’s fault. With such a situation at the seal points causing a large-scale Evil Infection among the Demon Clan, if Bright Temple doesn’t give an explanation to us in Demon Realm, I, Nostart, will be the first to refuse!" The appearance of Evil Infection on such a scale at the seal points had truly touched a nerve with Demon King of No Start.

He couldn’t imagine the potential harm to Demon Realm if the seal of the Demon God Prison were to be broken and those Demon Clan Demon Emperors infected with Evil Infection were to regain their former strength.
Gu Lan hadn’t expected that even after he openly clashed with Bright Temple, both Feng Yang Emperor and Demon King of No Start were still willing to stand by his side. The three continued discussing the matters concerning the seal points and the extraterrestrial entities.
Finally, Demon King of No Start proposed forming the Immortal Demon Alliance to jointly resist the oppression of Bright Temple. Even without Gu Lan’s presence, he would have eventually formed an alliance with Feng Yang Emperor, albeit gradually and cautiously.
Now with Gu Lan, Demon King of No Start was less concerned and directly invited Gu Lan to join the Immortal Demon Alliance, even suggesting Gu Lan become the leader of this alliance.
While Gu Lan wasn’t particularly concerned about opposing Bright Temple—since he already had some grievances with them—assuming the role of leader of the Immortal Demon Alliance felt a bit too ostentatious. Killing a few members of Bright Temple might provoke retaliation, but they wouldn’t necessarily focus all their attention on him.
However, as the leader of the alliance, that dynamic would change.
Gu Lan wasn’t afraid for himself; he possessed the Divine Space Ring, which allowed him to move freely across the Six Realms. His concern lay in Bright Temple’s lack of restraint, potentially escalating conflicts to involve not just him, but also drawing attention to the mortal realm and the Jing Nation, which would spell real trouble.
"It might indeed be inappropriate for Friend Gu to take on the role of leader," Feng Yang Emperor conceded. "Friend Gu is neither from the Immortal Realm nor from Demon Realm. We have no reason to expose him directly to Bright Temple’s wrath."
"However, I hope Friend Gu won’t refuse this position of vice leader," Feng Yang Emperor continued. Unlike the leader, the vice leader wouldn’t attract as much attention nor wield as much power. Yet, having such a position would still be very convenient for carrying out actions.
