My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty

Chapter 101 Strange Phenomenon in the Endless Sea; Terror of Ferocious Beasts!

Destiny was actively boosting for a full quarter of an hour.

Gu Lan lay quietly on the smooth large round stone, enjoying the pleasure of fleecing her own maidservant.

Finally, Destiny had approached the peak of the yellow-grade, just a step away from advancing to the purple-grade, marking a significant step towards becoming a qualified "hanger."

Gu Lan nodded in satisfaction. At this moment, the feeling of emptiness in her stomach became more pronounced.

While the little phoenix had feasted all day and was full, Gu Lan was still hungry. Unfortunately, Destiny couldn't serve as a meal. Gu Lan glanced at Lin Tan'er, leaped up from the stone, and smiled faintly, "Take your time sorting things out, little girl. I need to find something to eat!"

"Eh!" Lin Tan'er suddenly stopped him.

Gu Lan was puzzled for a moment but then thought that maybe this girl was also hungry.

"Don't you have anything to eat? Do you want me to bring you some?" Gu Lan asked.

Lin Tan'er hesitated, shook her head, and whispered, "No, I... today I caught some common wild game. It's in the woods behind..."

"If you don't mind, I can cook it for you... I often cook for my young master; it won't be bad!" Lin Tan'er felt uneasy, having gained such a significant advantage without any effort.

Gu Lan was momentarily stunned. He intended to refuse, but subconsciously thought of Lin Tan'er's seemingly decent cooking skills.

Since she had been taking care of the family's meals since being sheltered in Langzhou City, besides the meals made by the lady herself, almost all the family's meals were prepared by her. Discover more content at empire

"Well... okay!" Gu Lan reluctantly agreed.

"Then...brother, come with me," Lin Tan'er changed her wording, indicating that she had gained some trust in the "stranger" in front of her.

Together with the maidservant, they entered a small grove. Gu Lan casually found a tree to lie under.

Lin Tan'er silently lit a fire and skillfully roasted the wild game she had caught—a large Nurture Realm rabbit.

Before long, a fragrant aroma filled the air, and golden oil dripped down from the plump rabbit meat.

"This is for you," Lin Tan'er tore off a rabbit leg.

Gu Lan took it, not polite at all, and started eating heartily. Suddenly, seeing the cumin seasoning on the rabbit leg, a faint smile appeared on her lips. "Little girl, this seasoning is so fragrant. Is it your exclusive secret recipe?"

"It was made by my young master," Lin Tan'er replied truthfully.

"Oh!~ Then your young master must be an extraordinary person to make such delicious food!" Gu Lan's eyes lit up, praising with a smile.

"Yes, indeed!" Lin Tan'er nodded, smiling and fully endorsing this view.

When they were almost done eating, Lin Tan'er's eyes reflected the crackling campfire. After hesitating for a moment, she asked, "Big brother, I still don't know your name?"

"But today, I need to be careful. As the Secret Realm is about to close, this small world feels increasingly unsustainable. I need to restrain myself a bit; otherwise, it would be troublesome if it collapses!"

Gu Lan flew on his sword in the sky, muttering to himself. The collapse of this small world was no joke; it could involve entering the chaotic flow of time, where all creatures inside would be annihilated in chaos.

"By the way! I wonder where that dead puppet I saw before has gone?"

Suddenly, Gu Lan remembered the pale face he saw when entering the Secret Realm. Despite intentionally scanning the area as he approached, he still found no trace of the death energy, leaving him with an unexplained sense of unease.

"In the original work, the dead puppet was a masterpiece of the Corpse Puppet Sect, affiliated with the Blaze Sun Empire. I wonder why it entered the Secret Realm and who directed it..."

Gu Lan frowned, contemplating. Suddenly, roars interrupted his thoughts.

"Roar!"

"Howl!~"

"Neigh!"

Looking closely, Gu Lan was stunned, and his steps came to a halt. It wasn't because the edge of the Endless Sea was in front of him, but in the sky above the edge, dozens of beasts at least at the pinnacle of the Immortal Stage were hovering and swirling!

Silver Moon Demon Wolf King, Demon poison Vultures, Terrifying Blood Ape...

Each of them was a king of demonic beasts dominating a region in the mountains. Simultaneously gathering here, they formed a spectacular scene, resembling small mountains.

If there were ordinary cultivators nearby witnessing this, they would probably be scared out of their wits. Gu Lan took in a sharp breath, his eyes showing confusion.

"These overlords usually have a strong sense of territory and would fight each other when they meet. Why are they gathering here simultaneously?"

Gu Lan couldn't comprehend, so he took out the Phoenix Egg. Phoenixes were ancient divine beasts, surely knowing more than he did.

"Master, is it mealtime?"

Feeling many powerful bloodthirsty auras around, the Little Phoenix excitedly said, "Wow! Master has prepared so much blood food; I'm sure to hatch after eating today!"

Gu Lan: "..."

This horrifying spectacle, covering the sky and earth. You'd probably get shaken to bits just entering it!

"Don't be in a hurry to eat; help me listen to what these guys are doing. Why do I feel like they are roaring towards the Endless Sea with all their might?"

"What does this roar mean?"

Gu Lan recalled the strange tone of the Deputy Dean before. Looking at this hair-raising scene, he always felt that it was not just a simple gathering of demonic beasts!

The Little Phoenix listened carefully for a moment.

However, it answered him with unprecedented seriousness, "Master, I hear... they're fearing."
