The faces of all the southern barbarians changed.

Lan Yan said sternly, "Quickly, come with me to the yamen."

Realizing something, the group of southern barbarians hurriedly followed Lan Yan.

Meanwhile, the waiter of Longfu Inn was standing anxiously outside the yamen, pacing back and forth, but unable to get in.

He turned around a few more times, then looked at Xue Fengjun, who was guarding the gate, with a pleading expression, and said, "Brothers, I really have something to say. Princess Anguo is the head of my Mu family business. I have important business to discuss with her."

The two Snow Phoenix soldiers also looked troubled. "But His Highness the Crown Prince and Princess Anguo instructed that no one should be disturbed, no matter who comes. Why don't you wait a little longer?"

The waiter looked anxious, but he had no choice but to continue pacing.

Just then, a group of figures rushed over, each one looking menacing.

The waiter turned around upon hearing the noise and saw that it was that group of southern barbarians who had actually come here. His face immediately darkened.

He said to the two soldiers named Xuefeng, "My lords, they are barbarians from the south. They captured our Mu family business people and humiliated them in every way. I came here to find the head of the family for this very reason."

Their return here now can't be good news.

Upon hearing this, the two Snow Phoenix soldiers immediately became alert. Their sharp gazes locked onto the approaching Southern Barbarians, and their expressions turned murderous.

"Hey, is that the innkeeper's waiter? What's he doing here?"

A southerner said.

Lan Yan frowned, glanced at the waiter, strode to the front of the yamen, and without saying a word, walked in with a sullen face.

The two Xuefeng soldiers' faces turned cold, and they raised their guns to block her.

Lan Yan glanced at the two men and recognized that their attire was not that of ordinary yamen runners; her expression darkened further.

"Make way, I am Lan Yan, the High Priest of the Southern Barbarians, and I have come here to see Zhou Shichang."

Lan Yan was confident that Zhou Shichang, having been afflicted by the Heart-Eating Gu, was still under their control.

Moreover, there are puppet soldiers and nine-headed gu in the yamen, so even if Ying Yufu and the others get in, they will not get away with it.

Xue Fengjun looked at her and sneered, "Without a visiting card or official documents, you are not allowed to enter."

Lan Yan's face turned ugly again.

"How dare you! Who are you? How dare you stop High Priest Lan Yan and High Priest Xuan Feng? Do you know that this is Yunzhou, not the imperial city?"

Lan Lie stepped forward and said sternly.

The two Snow Phoenix soldiers laughed in anger, "So you know this is Yunzhou, not your Southern Barbarians?"

"You..." Lan Lie's voice faltered.

Just then, another Xuefeng soldier strode out from inside.

He glanced around with cold eyes, his gaze settling on the faces of the southern barbarians, and said, "Princess Anguo, let them in."

The two Snow Phoenix soldiers immediately put away their guns and stared coldly at the Southern Barbarians.

Lan Yan frowned for a moment, then her face turned mocking.

Lan Lie went even further, saying, "High Priest, Ying Yufu and the others must have been beaten so badly by the puppet soldiers that they were powerless to fight back and couldn't escape. They want us to come in and save them."

A sharp glint flashed in Lan Yan's eyes. "Let's go in and have a good look at how the Crown Prince of Beixuan will kneel down and beg for mercy."

With that, Lan Yan sneered and strode inside.

They suffered huge losses on this trip to Beixuan, but being able to turn the tide here, they are determined to make Beixuan pay the price.

When the waiter saw them go in, he hurriedly followed them in.

At this moment, the back gate was open, and as soon as Lan Yan and the others entered, they saw that Ying Yufu and the others were surrounded by a dense swarm of nine-headed Gu.

A cold smile immediately appeared on Lan Yan's lips as she raised her voice and said, "Princess Anguo, Your Highness Crown Prince of Beixuan, how have you been?"

Ying Yufu had extraordinary hearing; she had already heard Lan Yan and the others talking to Xue Fengjun when they were outside the mansion.

Although she was surprised that they arrived in Yunzhou so quickly, since they dared to show themselves now, she didn't mind letting them watch their Southern Barbarian Nine-Headed Gu turn to ashes.

Ying Yufu also raised the corners of her lips meaningfully: "Indeed, I have been well."

Lan Yan and the others looked at the group of puppet soldiers who seemed to be frozen in place, and it was very strange that they were not moving at all.

She didn't think too much about it, assuming it was an order from one of their own to halt the attack.

"Princess Anguo, if you are afraid, why don't you just give in and beg for mercy?" Lan Yan said with a smile.

Ying Yufu looked at her coldly.

The Crown Prince, Wushuang, Shangguan Fei, and the others all stared at them with murderous intent.

"Do you know that this is the territory of Yunzhou, and the place is under the jurisdiction of the Yunzhou government?"

You barbarians from the South have the audacity to use Gu to control my officials from the North Xuan, and you even use my Yunzhou government as a Gu-refining ground, killing my people from the North Xuan to feed on your Gu.

"High Priest Lan Yan, High Priest Xuan Feng, don't you have anything to say about this matter?"

Ying Yufu looked at them with some curiosity.

Lan Yan laughed: "Princess Anguo, I thought you were a smart person. When you were in the capital, your Northern Xuan was powerful and forced my Southern Barbarians to retreat step by step. You even took away three cities on my border."

Now, in Yunzhou, regardless of whose territory it is, Yunzhou is truly under the control of my Southern Barbarians. You have all experienced the taste of being at the mercy of others, haven't you?

"It seems you have absolutely no intention of reflecting on your actions," Ying Yufu said in a flat tone.

Lan Yan looked at her and said, "Princess Anguo is a goddess with supernatural abilities. If you can be used by my Southern Barbarians, I promise you that your status in the Southern Barbarians will be second only to my Southern Barbarians' Chosen One."

Ying Yufu's expression turned slightly strange: "The chosen one you mentioned, could it be Ying Hengzhi?"

Lan Yan, no longer afraid of revealing Ying Hengzhi's identity, directly admitted, "That's right, exactly."

Ying Yufu's expression became even stranger: "Whether she is a chosen one or a harbinger of doom, High Priest Lan Yan will know after she has judged her."

Lan Yan's expression darkened.

She stared coldly at Ying Yufu and said, "It seems Princess Anguo is unwilling to submit to my Southern Barbarians?"

"Are you barbarians worthy?" Ying Yufu retorted.

Lan Yan sneered, "Fine, since that's how it is, then don't blame me for making you, this goddess, perish here."

After saying that, she put her finger to her lips and whistled to control the Nine-Headed Gu.

However, when the silencing sound was emitted, the nine-headed Gu on the ground did not react at all.

Lan Yan and the other southern barbarians finally realized that something was wrong. Lan Yan looked at Ying Yufu and suddenly discovered that she was holding a nine-headed phoenix hairpin in her hand.

"That's... the alignment of nine stars!" Lan Yan exclaimed in surprise.

Ying Yufu smiled slightly: "That's right, it is indeed the alignment of the nine stars."

Lan Yan's face darkened. "You think the alignment of the nine stars can kill the Nine-Headed Gu?"

At most, it's just restraint.

Ying Yufu looked at the nine-headed Gu on the ground, which were feeding on humans and had ferocious faces. They were struggling to wriggle, but could not get any closer.

Such restraint is only a matter of time.

When the time comes, they will resume their activity.

The Gu jade on the Nine Stars Alignment was, after all, damaged.

Ying Yufu smiled slightly and looked at Lan Yan, "The alignment of the nine stars cannot completely kill them, but fire can."

Lan Yan was taken aback, then a smile appeared on her lips.

The group of southern barbarians laughed even more arrogantly.

Ying Yufu also laughed. The Nine-Headed Gu could not be killed by ordinary fire, otherwise why would the puppet soldiers not reject water and fire?

Ying Yufu looked at the Southern Barbarians who were laughing uncontrollably and couldn't help but laugh as well. The next moment, she threw the earth fire she had bought out.

The fire spread rapidly, like sparks meeting hot oil, and the Nine-Headed Gu emitted a piercing shriek.
