Ye Luan stared at Gu Ruoyun icily with a hint of contempt in her eyes. She obviously does not hold her in high regard.

　　“I’d love to see how you’re capable of razing the Dragon Moon Empire to the ground.”

　　Gu Ruoyun glanced at Ye Luan aloofly before she slowly raised her hand…

　　Boom!

　　Powerful energy exploded into her surroundings and enveloped her like a hurricane. The hurricane ripped rocks and bricks from the ground while nearby trees whirled into the sky. At that moment, it seemed almost as if the entire world was collapsing from that woman’s power.

　　Ye Luan gritted her teeth and commanded, “All of you, attack! Take that woman down!”

　　“Yes, Princess.”

　　The powerful cultivators of the Empire moved to stop Gu Ruoyun when they heard this.

　　However, before they could get near to Gu Ruoyun, they were hit by a powerful energy. That energy slammed into their chests and caused their bodies to fly away with a thud.

　　None of them had even managed to touch the corner of Gu Ruoyun’s robes!

　　The hurricane continued to rage around them and began to suck the roof tiles above their heads into the air. The people in the houses were terrified and quickly rushed out to stare in shock at the woman in green beneath the wild winds.

　　Ye Luan began to feel frightened and she roared angrily, “Stop it this instant!”

　　Wham!

　　Ye Luan then attempted to rush towards Gu Ruoyun to stop her but who would have thought that the woman would shoot her an indifferent glare…

　　This one look caused Ye Luan to lose control and fly out of the way. She spat out a mouthful of blood as her face was drained of color.

　　“I’ll give you one last chance, where’s Yu’er?”

　　Gu Ruoyun asked coldly as she stared at Ye Luan who was on the ground in a domineering manner.

　　Ye Luan clenched her jaw and did not reply.

　　She refused to hand Xia Linyu over no matter what!

　　“His Imperial Highness has arrived!”

　　A loud, gruff voice rang out through the palace.

　　The crowd of onlookers then saw Ye Qin, who was dressed in bright yellow robes, rushing over. His handsome face was full of panic and when he saw the trouble-making Gu Ruoyun, he sped up and immediately walked towards the woman.

　　“My Lady, may We ask if anyone in the Dragon Moon Empire has offended you? Tell Us and We shall grant you justice!”

　　Ye Qin took a deep breath.

　　He understands that Gu Ruoyun has great power. Hence, he could only use soft persuasion at a time like this.

　　Gu Ruoyun swept her gaze towards him. “I’m here to bring Yu’er home. Since you’re insisting on keeping Yu’er inside, I can only burn the Dragon Moon Empire to the ground.”

　　Yu’er?

　　Ye Qin was shocked. “Do you mean Xia Linyu? May We ask how you are related to him?”

　　“I’m his older sister.”

　　Gu Ruoyun replied indifferently and her voice was tranquil and calm. However, the murderous intent thickened within her being, causing them all to shiver.

　　Ye Qin laughed bitterly as he stared accusingly at Ye Luan who had fallen onto the ground.

　　He had long asked her to investigate Xia Linyu’s past but in the end, his sister had not agreed to their matrimony and had stormed right in!

　　Besides, this woman’s power was superior to theirs and she was likely to have attained a rank above a Martial Saint. Only a member of the First City would have such power.

　　“My Lady, are you from the First City?”

　　He thought for a moment before asking that question.

　　Gu Ruoyun nodded. “That’s right, I’m from the First City. You will now hand Yu’er over. Otherwise, I will make the Dragon Moon Empire disappear from this world!”
