My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty

The Dragon God has awakened!

The Primordial Demon God, the leader of all, has awakened!

All the members of the Demon Clan were filled with astonishment; they understood what this meant. The Demon Gods in the Demon Clan sacred ground were merely remnants of souls, with only one chance to awaken. Each time a Demon God awoke, the Demon Realm would plunge into catastrophe. It has been ten thousand years since the last awakening. That last event led to the ancient Sealing Demon Battle, which ultimately forced the Dragon Clan into seclusion. While that battle did not directly affect the Demon Realm, it resulted in significant losses for the Dragon Clan, the most powerful among the Demon Clans.

Now, the awakening of the Dragon God heralded yet another impending calamity. The various strong members of the Demon Clan, recalling the recent war drums sounded by the Dragon Clan and the traces of extraterrestrial entities, felt increasingly heavy-hearted.

"Everyone, calm down! Let me first receive the guidance of the Dragon God."

"There are countless talented members of the Demon Clan in the sacred ground receiving their inheritances. We must not act recklessly at this time!"

The first to be alarmed was the Dragon Clan Elder, who involuntarily radiated an aura of true dragons. He spoke to stabilize the situation, immediately ordering the Dragon Clan soldiers to go on high alert and not allow anyone to enter or exit the sacred ground of the Demon Clan carelessly.

He had opened the Demon Clan sacred ground, fully aware that extraterrestrial entities were returning and had already set their sights on the Demon Realm. With a calamity looming over the Demon Realm, consolidating the strength of all the Demon Clans to prevent the extraterrestrial entities from picking them off one by one was the best course of action. Now that the Dragon God had awakened and bestowed guidance, it might just be the means to help the Demon Realm avert disaster.

The Dragon Clan Elder also thought of Gu Xiaoqi and Zhe Liang. With the Divine Phoenix and Zhuyan bloodlines about to manifest, his confidence grew even stronger.

At this moment, a beam of golden light shot out from the sacred ground of the Demon Clan.

"The guidance of the Dragon God has arrived!"

The Dragon Clan Elder calmed his mind, preparing to receive the guidance. But to his surprise, the golden light did not land on him; instead, it circled around him and flew out directly.

"The guidance of the Dragon Clan didn't fall on the Dragon Clan Elder. Who else could qualify for the Dragon God's guidance?"

Everyone in the various Demon Clans was dumbfounded. Even the Dragon Clan soldiers looked puzzled. Only the Dragon Clan Elder's eyes widened in shock and delight.

No one understood better than him what it meant to receive the guidance of the Dragon Clan. The person who received this guidance would lead the Dragon Clan towards greater hope!

He was already old; if the guidance fell on him, it would mean there was no one in the Dragon Clan who could go further than he had. But the fact that the guidance did not land on him indicated that someone else in the Dragon Clan could indeed surpass him.

"Could it be Qin'er?" the Dragon Clan Elder speculated.

In recent years, the only one he had high hopes for in the Dragon Clan was Ao Qin'er. Unfortunately, due to her soul's issues, her cultivation had slowed down after reaching the sixth rank of the Imperial Realm. The Dragon Clan Elder had tried many methods but could not resolve Ao Qin'er's soul problem. Now that the Dragon God had awakened and bestowed guidance, could it be because of Qin'er?

As he pondered, the Dragon Clan Elder led the Dragon Clan soldiers to follow the Dragon God's guidance. Soon, they saw Gu Lan and his companions, the golden light of the Dragon God's guidance quietly hovering in front of Gu Lan.

"Daddy, what is this thing?" Gu Simu curiously gazed at the golden light in front of her father.

For some reason, she felt that the golden light was very familiar and warm.

"This is an inheritance, and also a responsibility…" Gu Lan stared at the Dragon God's guidance, his mind filled with various information. He hadn't expected that the remnant soul of the Dragon God in the sacred ground of the Demon Clan would choose him. Was it because of his high cultivation?

With his powerful spiritual senses, Gu Lan could see through the cultivation of all the Demon Clan members present. Except for the Dragon Clan Elder, who was at the peak of the Main God Realm, the other Demon Clan members were at most at the early stages of the Main God Realm, with many only having Divine Realm Supreme cultivation. This was still the peak strength gathered from the entire Demon Realm, and to be honest, it paled in comparison to the Immortal Realm.

One must know that major powers in the Immortal Realm usually have at least one Main God Realm powerhouse overseeing them. Accepting the Dragon God's guidance would allow him to obtain the inheritance of the Dragon Clan while also taking on the responsibility of protecting the Dragon Clan.

After pondering for a moment, Gu Lan decided to accept it. First of all, he had always had a favorable impression of the Dragon Clan. Plus, he possessed the Dragon Yang body; obtaining the inheritance within the Dragon God's guidance would enhance his strength significantly. His daughter also had the Dragon Phoenix body and might also be able to accept this inheritance. In short, the benefits outweighed the drawbacks.

"Come on!" Gu Lan reached out to grasp the Dragon Clan guidance, and a radiant golden light erupted around him.

It was the purest aura of true dragons, almost on par with a real dragon.

Seeing this scene, Luo Yue was equally shocked. He had anticipated Gu Lan's exceptional strength, but he hadn't expected him to possess such a pure aura of true dragons, even able to receive the Dragon Clan's guidance. The other Demon Clan members were even more bewildered. To their eyes, Gu Lan was clearly a member of the Human Clan; how could he possess such a powerful true dragon aura?

The surprise in the Dragon Clan Elder's eyes grew more evident. Among all present, only he was at the peak of the Main God Realm and could discern Gu Lan's true cultivation level. Whether Gu Lan was of the Dragon Clan or the Human Clan didn't matter. The fact that he could elicit the Dragon God's guidance indicated that he was the one destined to lead the Dragon Clan.

In ancient times, the Dragon Clan and the Human Clan were quite close; Human Clan emperors often cultivated the techniques of the true dragon clan and inherited their legacy. Gu Lan was powerful, and naturally, the Dragon Clan Elder was more than happy to accept this outcome.

The inheritance within the Dragon God's guidance was not complicated. It contained a record of various techniques of the true dragon clan and a memory of the ancient Dragon God and the other nine Demon Gods establishing the sacred ground of the Demon Clan.

With Gu Lan's current strength, he quickly absorbed all the inheritance and memories. When he opened his eyes again, the Dragon Clan Elder had already brought a group of Dragon Clan soldiers to stand respectfully before him.

"Greetings, Dragon Ruler!"

The Dragon Clan Elder took the lead in bowing. Other Dragon Clan members, seeing this, did not dare to delay and followed suit.

"Dragon Ruler" was the highest title within the Dragon Clan, denoting its leader.

"There's no need for such formality," Gu Lan raised his hand, signaling the Dragon Clan Elder and the soldiers to rise.

At the same time, he accepted the title of Dragon Ruler with composure.

His gaze then fell upon a red figure among the Dragon Clan soldiers—Ao Qin'er, clad in red armor.

Seeing her, he was already certain that she was the other half of Ao Qin'er's soul, as well as her complete physical form. The bloodline on Ao Qin'er matched that of the East Sea Dragon Sovereign; there could be no mistake.

If the Dragon Sovereign knew that his daughter's cultivation was higher than his, he wouldn't know whether to feel more happy or sad.

As Gu Lan contemplated this, his gaze returned to the Dragon Clan Elder.

"By accepting the guidance of the Dragon God, I can temporarily take on the responsibilities of the Dragon Ruler and lead the Dragon Clan through this calamity. However, after the calamity, I still hope the Dragon Clan can select another person as the new Dragon Ruler." Gu Lan communicated to the Dragon Clan Elder.
