Chapter 168 One Year Later
After Gu Yan finished speaking, her smile vanished, and she turned into a golden streak, flying away into the distance. Dugu Xun, momentarily stunned, entered the palace and saw the large crater in the ground and the little boy climbing out of it. Standing at the edge of the crater, he stared at the adorable boy and said coolly:
"You've angered Zirong. What did you do?"
"I didn't do anything!" Dugu Yun said, looking aggrieved.
"Confess honestly." Dugu Xun grabbed his grandfather with one hand.
"Let go!"
Dugu Yun quickly broke free, jumped to the ground, and crossed his arms: "I just said he should keep me company tonight, and he actually hit me! How vicious!"
boom!
As soon as Dugu Yun finished speaking, Dugu Xun punched him into the ground, creating another large crater.

Gu Yan returned to his residence, and before he even went inside, he saw Jiang Shuo standing at his door. Jiang Shuo had seen Gu Yan come out and quickly returned to the palace to wait for him here.
"Cousin Ayan, where did you go?" Jiang Shuo asked with a smile.
"Let's take a walk," Gu Yan said.
"Taking a walk? Where did you go for a walk?"
"Just taking a walk."
After Gu Yan finished speaking, she went into her room and closed the door, leaving Jiang Shuo outside.
Jiang Shuo: "..."
What on earth did he do with Dugu Xun just now? I really want to know! He's his cousin! How could he be so close to an outsider, even closer to him than his own cousin? How despicable! How despicable! That despicable Dugu Xun!!
Jiang Shuo was in a fit of impotent rage.

Although Dugu Yeli disliked Dugu Yun in every way, he still released him on the day of Dugu Xun's coronation ceremony, allowing him to participate in the ceremony.
The appearance of Dugu Yun caused fear among all the civil and military officials of the Tianyin Empire, who were afraid that this oddball would cause a major incident during the coronation ceremony. Fortunately, such a thing did not happen. However, Dugu Yun's face was very sour throughout the entire process.
He wore my displeasure on his face.
Except for Jiang Huan, all the other Spirit Emperors came.
Princess Mingyue of the Tianxing Empire also arrived. Her eyes were fixed on Gu Yan, filled with resentment, as if she were looking at a heartless person.
However, she wasn't the only one staring intently at Gu Yan. When Gu Yan appeared, all eyes were on him, making him even more of a focus of attention than the main character, Dugu Xun.
As soon as the coronation ceremony ended, Jiang Shuo clamored to go back, he was so eager to return home.
"Grandfather, Grandmother, let's go back quickly. Didn't you see the way Dugu Xun looked at my cousin? That guy is plotting against my cousin, but my cousin doesn't suspect him at all. What if my cousin is bewitched if we stay here any longer?" Jiang Shuo said excitedly.
Jiang Xi, holding a cup of tea, said, "It's not that serious, is it?"
"What do you mean there isn't? Look at him, every time my cousin appears, his eyes are glued to him. And that Dugu Yun too, that weirdo is also eyeing my cousin. This place is a den of dragons and tigers. My cousin is young and naive. What if he falls for it?" Jiang Shuo put his hands on the table. He wanted to pack Gu Yan up and take her away right now.
Jiang Qian and Jiang Xi exchanged a glance and agreed that Jiang Shuo's words made sense. The father and son's eyes were indeed not innocent, and those girls from the Tianyin royal family were also staring at Yan'er with a sly look. They should set off to return to their country as soon as possible.
"Alright, we'll go back tomorrow," Jiang Qian said.
Jiang Shuo asked, "Can we leave now?"
He didn't want Ayan to stay here for even a second longer.
Jiang Qian: "..."
And so, the next day, Gu Yan went back with her maternal grandparents.
However, after returning to the Tianyang Empire, Dugu Xun sent Gu Yan gifts every few days. These gifts ranged from rare treasures to exotic flowers and herbs; soon, the entire Yulan Continent knew that the new emperor of Tianyin was in love with the Peerless King.
Jiang Shuo was even angrier.

Five hundred years later.
Inside the secret chamber, a peerless young man in white sat on a futon, his eyes closed, his hands forming a mudra placed on his dantian, his whole body surrounded by five-colored radiance.
There was no wind in the secret chamber, yet his jet-black hair seemed to be blown by the wind, dancing gently. An ancient golden totem appeared between his brows, and his divine sense was already millions of miles above the ground.
Gu Yan's primordial spirit left his body, glanced down at the mountains and rivers below from high above, and then flew directly out of the atmosphere into the starry sky. Five hundred years later, Gu Yan was already in the Tribulation Transcending stage. He claimed to be in the early stage of the Spirit Saint realm (equivalent to the early stage of the Mahayana stage), but in reality, he was already in the Tribulation Transcending stage.
In the dark, cold starry sky, enormous celestial bodies float, along with numerous rocks, dust, and other substances. Looking at Yunlan Realm from the starry sky, it is a beautiful planet.
Yunlan Realm, also known as Yunlan Realm Star, consists of three massive landmasses, with the sea covering sixty percent of the land. The green earth and blue ocean intertwine, resembling a gem with a gradient of blue and green.
This wasn't the first time Gu Yan had looked at Yunlan Star like this, but every time she gazed at it from the starry sky, she still found it incredibly beautiful.
Perhaps because he was born in the Cloud Realm, this was his home planet. His gaze then turned to other parts of the starry sky, to the burning giant stars and planets of different colors. He extended his divine sense to its limit, but still failed to detect any other life.
Perhaps this region is truly inhabited only by life on Yunlan Star.
When he becomes stronger, he will explore the more distant starry sky, the myriad realms, and countless living beings; he yearns for a wider world.
Gu Yan's spirit returned to her body, she opened her eyes, and the radiant light on her body disappeared.
Five hundred years later, his appearance hadn't changed much; he still looked like he was seventeen or eighteen years old. Only his temperament had become more ethereal. Anyone who saw him would sincerely marvel at his beauty.
Gu Yan stood up and walked out of the secret room.

In the bright spring sunshine, a girl dressed in red with her hair in two buns is playing with a majestic snow shadow tiger in the garden.
The Snow Shadow Tiger was two zhang tall. The girl held a colorful embroidered ball in her hand. She smiled and threw the ball away. The Snow Shadow Tiger quickly ran after the ball and then picked it up in its mouth.
The white-clad youth appeared, and the surrounding maids and servants all had their eyes light up.
"Your Highness, the Peerless King!"
So handsome! His Highness the Peerless King is also incredibly beautiful!
"Cousin!" Jiang Miao's eyes lit up when she saw Gu Yan.
"Awoo~"
The Snow Shadow Tiger had already thrown the ball and pounced on Gu Yan. Its massive body looked like it could flatten her. Just as it got close, Gu Yan clapped her hand, and it transformed back into a cub, which she then cradled in her arms. The Snow Shadow Tiger whined and howled affectionately at Gu Yan.
Jiang Miao watched as her cousin hugged this guy and was incredibly envious.
She longed to be held like that by her cousin; she felt a mixture of envy, jealousy, and resentment.
