The Immortal Dynasty of Victorious Snow, the City of Wind and Snow.
An elderly man with a composed demeanor and a woman who still possessed a charming appearance sat facing each other.
Both of them had impressive backgrounds: the old man was Lan Xian, the patriarch of the Lan family, and the woman was the emperor of the Shengxue Immortal Dynasty.
At this moment, the two chatted happily, reminiscing about the past.
Looking at the magnificent palace and the beautiful and charming Empress Shengxue, Lan Xian sighed:
"Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, it has been a thousand years since you, Shengxue, ascended the throne."
A single sentence stirred up Gongsun Shengxue's past memories, and she nodded.
"Yes, time flies, a thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye, and so much time has passed since that incident."
She suddenly smiled and asked Lan Xian, "Have you ever regretted what happened back then?"
Lan Xianlu shook her head without hesitation.
"There's nothing to regret. She hates evil and would never let us off if she knew what we did."
All we're doing is trying to protect ourselves.
Besides, if she hadn't died, neither of us would have the bright future we have today.
Gongsun Shengxue agreed wholeheartedly and nodded slightly.
"That's true. In fact, we have to thank that Soul-Devouring Evil Emperor. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been injured, and we wouldn't have had a chance at all."
Lan Xian nodded. "This is her fate, and also our destiny."
Then he recalled the scene of his battle with the Crimson Heaven Immortal Emperor, and said with lingering reluctance:
"I must say that the Crimson Sky Immortal Emperor is truly extraordinary. Even though he was hit by the Soul Devouring Evil Emperor's methods and was seriously injured, he still managed to kill you and me."
Gongsun Shengxue felt a wave of fear when she thought back to the scene of her desperate struggle.
"Her power is beyond doubt, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to mobilize so many Immortal Emperors to take action."
"So what? In the end, she died and her spirit vanished. Now that I've become emperor, your Lan family's future is bright."
Lan Xian smiled brightly, "Shengxue is right. No matter how strong she is, we will be the final victors."
Gongsun Shengxue then brought up another matter.
"Ever since the death of the Crimson Heaven Immortal Emperor, a group led by Azure Sky Wing has remained skeptical and has been relentlessly pursuing this matter. Have you heard anything from them recently?"
Lan Xian got angry as soon as he heard the name Cang Tianyi, and said angrily:
"I've never seen such a stubborn person. He's been holding onto this matter for so many years. He's unworthy of being called a Celestial Emperor!"
Gongsun Shengxue gently reminded him:
“Cang Tianyi is different. His worship of the Crimson Sky Immortal Emperor is deep in his bones, and he remains loyal to this day.”
Even though he was an Immortal Emperor, he had no intention of expanding his territory and always stayed by the side of the Crimson Sky Immortal Emperor.
He's been keeping an eye on our movements, both overtly and covertly, all these years. If he finds out anything, he'll definitely fight us to the death.
Lan Xian frowned, his composed expression turning cold and fierce, and he said with murderous intent:
"Hmph, I've disliked him for a long time. Even if he doesn't come looking for us, we'll have to come looking for him sooner or later. I feel like there will be trouble if we don't deal with him."
All these years, you and I have been recovering from our injuries, which allowed him to keep jumping around for so long.
Now that we've both recovered from our injuries, it's time to settle things with him.
If we join forces and find an opportunity to strike, we will surely ensure that he never returns.
Shengxue, what do you think?
Gongsun Shengxue smiled slightly and nodded her head.
"Brother Lan is right. We had no choice but to spoil him before. Now that our injuries have healed, it's time to settle things."
However, Cang Tianyi is no simple man; killing him will likely not be easy.
Lan Xian said with a worried look, "That's true. It's easy for you and me to defeat him together, but it's quite difficult to kill him."
Then he hesitated and said:
"Only you and I know what happened back then; neither of us will tell you."
How could he be so sure that the death of the Crimson Heaven Immortal Emperor was suspicious? Do you think he might have some kind of clue?
Gongsun Shengxue shook her head. "Probably not. If he knew it was us, he would have attacked us long ago, given his personality. He wouldn't have endured it until now."
She recalled the scene of the Crimson Heaven Immortal Emperor's deathbed, "Before she died, she threw the Crimson Heaven Immortal Sword away. Could he have found it?"
Lan Xian nodded and guessed:
"It's possible; if that's the case, it makes sense."
It's strange, really. She's a dying woman, and instead of holding back against us, she threw her sword away. What was she trying to do?
Gongsun Shengxue said quietly, "Perhaps there is some secret hidden in that sword."
Lan Xian didn't take it seriously. "What secret could it possibly have? It's just a celestial sword, and a broken one at that."
“That makes sense. Let’s not talk about these things anymore.” Gongsun Shengxue smiled and changed the subject. “Xi’er and Qiu Ning’s wedding will be held soon. This is a grand event for both our families.”
Lan Xian smiled and said, "Yes, this matter should be handled in a grand and beautiful manner."
"Of course." Gongsun Shengxue gazed in the direction of Shuanglan City. "Xi'er and Qiu Ning went back to your Lan family. I wonder how they are doing now?"
Lan Xian said proudly, "Although my Frost Ripple City is not as good as Snowstorm City, its safety is absolutely guaranteed. In all these years, no one has ever dared to run wild in Frost Ripple City."
Gongsun Shengxue didn't think he was bragging; it was just the truth.
Just then, Lan Xian's expression changed drastically, his eyes wide with anger.
Gongsun Shengxue, unaware of what had happened, asked in confusion, "What's wrong? What could have made you like this? Could it be that Cangtianyi went to Shuanglan City to cause trouble?"
Lan Xian suppressed his anger. "Lan Xiang is dead. He died in Shuanglan City."
Gongsun Shengxue raised an eyebrow. "How could this be? Who would be so bold?"
Lan Xian shook his head, "They appeared suddenly, I don't know who they are."
Gongsun Shengxue was about to ask another question when Lan Xian seemed to have been stimulated by something.
