My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty

The ancient Fierce Beast ruler, the Nine-Winged Dragon, who even the Ancient Dragon Clan could not provoke, had chosen to submit to a human!

The Fire Clan Divine Realm elder couldn't fathom why this was happening. But the reality was in front of him, and no amount of puzzling could change it.

"The headmaster is so impressive!" one of the Lanyan Royal School disciples exclaimed.

"With an ancient Fierce Beast as a mount, he is truly a role model for us!" another said.

"Master, I want to learn this too!" a third disciple chimed in.

The disciples of Lanyan Royal School were ecstatic. Chen Feng's eyes sparkled with excitement, wishing he could immediately go to Gu Lan and offer his services, eager to learn from him.

Others from various factions stood in stunned silence. Not only were they dumbfounded, but even the Divine Realm elders were so shocked that they momentarily forgot to continue their preparations for subsequent techniques.

"Everyone, please cease your actions," Gu Lan's voice rang out clearly.

"The Nine-Winged Dragon has been subdued by me. I will take it back to our sect and discipline it properly to ensure it won't cause any more trouble."

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere shifted dramatically. Although many had suspected such a turn of events, it was only when Gu Lan confirmed it that the situation became undeniable.

To subdue the Nine-Winged Dragon in such a brief moment—wasn't that a bit exaggerated? Had the Lanyan Royal School's headmaster become this powerful?

Many people reflected on their initial estimations of Gu Lan's strength. They had thought they had overestimated him, only to realize they had underestimated him instead.

This feeling was reminiscent of their impressions of the Lanyan Royal School's performance in the Great Competition of All Clans—it matched the overwhelming impression left by Gu Lan.

"It's true, like father, like son. With such a formidable headmaster, it makes sense that the disciples are so exceptional."

"Lanyan Royal School is amazing!"

"The headmaster of Lanyan Royal School is amazing!"

Everyone secretly admired Gu Lan, and many openly cheered. For many factions, the Nine-Winged Dragon was a Fierce Beast and a threat to their lives. With Gu Lan subduing it, he had indirectly saved their lives, and they felt a sense of gratitude.

Especially for those who participated in the final group battle, their gratitude toward Lanyan Royal School's disciples and Gu Lan was immense.

Seeing this, even the Fire Clan elder, who had been fuming, lost his urge to seize the Nine-Winged Dragon. He wanted to tear Gu Lan apart and erase Lanyan Royal School from the Six Realms, but he knew he couldn't do that. The Nine-Winged Dragon was growing stronger by the moment, and Gu Lan, who had subdued it, was not someone he could easily contend with.

With a cold snort, he chose to leave. Out of sight, out of mind—he feared his envy might drive him to act rashly.

"Congratulations, my friend, on acquiring such a guardian mythical creature for your sect!" the Cloud Clan's Divine Realm elder was the first to come forward with congratulations.

"Congratulations!" echoed the Ghost Clan's Divine Realm elder and the Beast Clan's Divine Realm elder.

The Beast Clan elder, despite his initial reluctance, had no choice but to admire Gu Lan. He had never respected anyone before, but at this moment, he felt genuine respect for Gu Lan. Leading an Earthly Realm force to this level could not be attributed to mere destiny or talent.

Making an enemy of such a person was less desirable than becoming friends with him. The Beast Clan needed the Nine-Winged Dragon's bloodline but didn't necessarily need it immediately. The Dragon Clan's infatuation with the bloodline meant that maintaining a good relationship with Lanyan Royal School could still yield opportunities in the future, even if it wasn't the purest form.

The Beast Clan elder's magnanimity was somewhat surprising to Gu Lan, but not entirely unexpected. The seven great Houses of the Immortal Realm had endured for so many years, indicating that their dominance wasn't solely based on brute force.

Gu Lan accepted the goodwill from the Beast Clan and acknowledged that this would be beneficial if conflicts with the Bright Clan arose in the future.

"If the opportunity arises, Mr. Gu, please visit us at the Beast Clan!" the Beast Clan elder said. "Our doors are always open for you!"

Despite his still-recovering state, the elder smiled warmly. Gu Lan, regardless of the elder's sincerity, acknowledged the gesture politely.

Watching this, the Thunder Clan's Divine Realm elder snorted and walked toward the direction the Fire Clan elder had taken.

"Mr. Gu, be cautious of the Fire Clan and Thunder Clan. Their tempers and cultivation methods are equally fiery, and they never forget a grudge."

"The Lanyan Royal School has taken their prestige and snatched their opportunities in the Great Competition of All Clans. They might not act immediately, but they won't give up easily."

"If you need assistance in the future, send this token to the Beast Clan. We will definitely help you if we can," the Beast Clan elder handed Gu Lan a unique beast token.

The sincerity of the gesture was evident, and both Gu Lan and the Ghost Clan elder were surprised by its significance.

"Thank you," Gu Lan said, accepting the token.

He looked at the Nine-Winged Dragon and understood the Beast Clan's intentions. The Nine-Winged Dragon had been subdued, and now Lanyan Royal School was leading the points chart, needing only to win the final Realm Ruler battle to achieve ultimate victory.

"With Mr. Gu's strength, winning the final Realm Ruler battle should not be too difficult."

"However, if we encounter each other again, do not hold back. We should fight with all our might."

The Beast Clan elder said this with a graceful exit, followed closely by the Ghost Clan elder.

After their departure, another major Immortal Realm faction's Divine Realm elder came forward to congratulate and discuss alliances with Lanyan Royal School. Their enthusiasm was even greater, and they proposed forming an alliance.

At this point, the hidden master of the God's Reign Sect could no longer stay silent. He came forward to join Gu Lan, identifying God's Reign Sect as an ally of Lanyan Royal School.

Seeing this, the Divine Realm elder expressed some regret but still wanted to explore cooperation with Lanyan Royal School and left a token as well.

"I'm glad I acted early; otherwise, the God's Reign Sect wouldn't be able to compete for Lanyan Royal School now," the master of God's Reign Sect said.

"Mr. Gu, once the Great Competition of All Clans ends, Lanyan Royal School will become renowned throughout the Six Realms. Don't forget God's Reign Sect. We can still collaborate as brothers."

"As long as you're willing, your disciples are welcome to come to the 33rd Sky of Divine Realm for training anytime."

The master of God's Reign Sect joked. Gu Lan smiled and shook his head, not pursuing the topic further. However, he assured that he would not forget his promise and would prioritize cooperation with God's Reign Sect, regardless of where Lanyan Royal School's final sect residence might be.
