Xuanyuan Yun's footsteps were steady and powerful, the frequency of each step wasn't any slower. Xiao Lan raised her gaze to look at Xuanyuan Yun.

This man was too faceless. He was cold, indifferent, and dark. After hearing his footsteps today, she had come to a conclusion. He was simply harsh to the point that it made one's hair stand on end.

However … She didn't understand why he was so stubborn about her feelings. If it was according to his temperament, then this would be a complete failure.

With a gust of wind, the floating belt beside Xiao Lan started to hover around the two of them like duckweed.

So beautiful.

Xiao Lan stretched out his arm to caress the ribbons dancing in the air. As the smooth silk cloth streaked past her fingers, Xiao Lan's voice was deep and heavy. "Xuanyuan, it would be too late if you let go now."

Hearing that, Xuanyuan Yun who was walking steadily forward immediately stopped in his tracks, his long and narrow pitch black eyes dark as ink.

"You Lanyi, why must you run then?"

No matter what you want in this world, as long as you speak, This King will find it for you. As the regent's consort, you have an untouchable throne, you have luxurious things This King truly does not understand. As such, you must leave.

Xiao Lan's floating fingers froze in mid air, as she stared blankly at Xuanyuan Yun.

Yes, he couldn't give her peace of mind!

Anya …

She had personally retrieved the remains of her brother's body, buried her family with her, and saved her dozens of times from danger. Now, she was trapped in his palace, covered in blood.

Could it be that she wanted to be that selfish and treacherous villain? How could she be able to peacefully live a life as sweet as the honey he gave her?

After that, he let her Anya drain her blood by herself. She could not stay in the dark tomb with an ice-cold expression on her face. It was impossible for her to do so!

A moment later, Xiao Lan's eyes were like dark clouds, "Xuanyuan, you're really not going to let go?"

Xuanyuan Wentian said as he watched Xiao Lan's emotions churn. The corner of his mouth slowly formed into a faint smile as his firm voice seemed to pierce through a person's soul.

"Not letting go."

Fine, Xiao Lan said as she stared fixedly at Xuanyuan Wentian. If they aren't letting go, then they will just wait for the thousand years separating them and never see each other again!

"Up to you."

After she finished speaking, Xiao Lan grabbed the ribbon that fluttered in the air and didn't say anything else.

Xuanyuan Wentian's dark eyes instantly narrowed into a slit. He would definitely find out why she wanted to leave him.

They were thousands of meters away from the main temple hall. The distance was not too far, so neither of them spoke.

When the people on both sides of the road saw Xuanyuan Yun's figure carrying Xiao Lan, they instantly went silent.

This!

What was going on?!

Didn't the Regent promise the empress dowager would divorce her?

What was happening now?

Did the Regent bring Lan Yi to the main hall of the Divine Buddha?

And it was carried by him!

The temple was originally a peaceful and quiet place, but right now, it could already be said to be deathly still.

Xuanyuan Hongxi was a first rank official of the imperial court, and the empress dowager, Meng, was already waiting in the main hall. She only needed to wait for Xuanyuan Yun to arrive before they could both pay their respects to the Buddha.

Right at this moment, a small palace maid ran into the main hall in a panic. Gao Yuan, who was standing in front of the door, quickly ran up and scolded her with a pale face.

"You dog slave, are you crazy, don't you want the head on your neck? When and where are we? Are you rushing here to die?"

The little palace maid looked towards Gao Yuan with a trembling body. He had been with Gao Yuan for several years and knew more about the matters of the royal family than anyone else. It was because of this that he was so panicked.

"That's not it, Eunuch Gao, the Regent is here …"

"Since the Regent came, he came. His highness would have come already, what are you panicking for." If it wasn't for the fact that he wasn't in a suitable place, Gao Yuan really wanted to go up and give him a ruthless kick.

"No, the Regent came with the Regent's Consort …"

"What?!"

Gao Yuan was shocked.

Why did the Regent bring "Cantonese" with him...

Yesterday, he had seen the truth from the empress dowager's cabinet. In order for the regent to stop "Ulan Yi", the empress dowager had pulled out a knife and placed it on her neck.

Now, after a night had passed, the Regent had actually brought the princess, who should have been retired, to the main hall of the temple. Everyone should know what this meant.

Soon, the sound of many footsteps came from behind the two of them.

"What did you just say?" Xuanyuan Hongxi's voice was both low and cold.

The servant quickly kneeled on the ground: "Just now, this servant said … The Regent came with... "Regent Consort, we came together …"

"Nonsense!" the empress dowager's voice suddenly rose.

The small palace man instantly trembled.

The killing intent around the empress dowager's body had already covered the skies. Everyone silently retreated a step, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.

Xuanyuan Hong Xi looked at the Meng family with a deep gaze that no one could understand.

"Empress Dowager, please don't be angry. The Regent has brought with him Lan Yi. It might be possible that she wants to divorce his wife in public."

Hearing this, the Meng Clan's expression somewhat eased up.

At this time, several hundred steps below the main hall, Xuanyuan Yun slowly walked up with Xiao Lan in his embrace.

Everyone looked over.

When the empress dowager saw the clothes Xiao Lan was wearing, her entire body no longer radiated a frightening baleful aura. It was simply an earth-shattering fury!

Wife?

Wife!

Xuanyuan Wentian was not here to divorce his wife!

He had brought Waves with him to kowtow to Lord Buddha!

Xiao Lan had been silently staying in Xuanyuan Wentian's embrace. As Xuanyuan Yun stepped into the higher levels, she felt a wave of killing intent that covered the sky.

Xiao Lan looked at Xuanyuan Yun with clear eyes. "Are you really going to break all ties with the empress dowager?"

Xuanyuan Wentian's footsteps were still the same as he said in a low voice, "Whether this duke's wangfei is crippled or not, this king will have the final say. Even the empress dowager has no right to interfere."

Hearing this, Xiao Lan's fingertips stiffened.

This man was truly domineering.

Now, he was even more impudent on the topic of relationships.

Just as they stepped onto the final step of the platform, the blazing sun, which was originally covered by a large cloud, suddenly started to shine brightly from the crack in the cloud. For a moment, the light illuminated the entire buddhist hall.

This strange scene caused everyone to be stunned on the spot. After a while, they slowly raised their heads to look at the blinding sunlight.

There was only one person among them who did not raise his head. That was the empress dowager, Madam Meng. At this moment, even the blazing sunlight could not illuminate the deepest depths of her heart!

Her son had gone against her.

Her son, after agreeing to her, had gone against her!

No, she was not. She was her!

This was the woman who had displaced the people a hundred years ago, the woman who had caused the flames of war to fly in the sky, the woman who had caused millions of people to bleed like rivers. She had returned!

Blue Butterfly!

She's back!
