Chapter 2050 Star Moon Pavilion Compet.i.tion 5
The Second Prince?
What was his purpose for being here?
While Gu Chaoyan had defeated the Second Prince in the compet.i.tion at the Starry Crescent Pavilion, it was just a normal contest. He had simply lost, and it seemed unlikely that he would openly demand the Golden Rolls, right?
If he expected the Yan Family to give it to him, he would be sorely disappointed.
Yet, Gu Chaoyan couldn"t simply leave. She made the decision to stay and observe the situation alongside Madame Yan and the others.
They made their way to the hall, with Gu Chaoyan following closely behind.
The Second Prince had initially intended to relay a message through Madame Yan about meeting Gu Chaoyan. However, he unexpectedly encountered her while she was accompanying Madame Yan, saving him time and effort.
After exchanging greetings, the Second Prince turned his attention to Gu Chaoyan.
Regarding today"s compet.i.tion…
He was almost certain that Gu Chaoyan surpa.s.sed him in strength. Furthermore, he had personally investigated her cultivation level after the compet.i.tion, discovering that she had reached the peak of the Martial King realm.
He hadn"t antic.i.p.ated that the Yan Family harbored such an exceptional Martial King among them.
Moreover…
Gu Chaoyan wasn"t the only one who had reached the peak of the Martial King realm. She displayed a level of agility and flexibility that surpa.s.sed others at the same level. However, he couldn"t help but wonder about her mysterious teacher"s origins.
The Second Prince"s original plan had been to dismantle Yan Wuji and the entire Yan Family, using their resources to aid in his cultivation.
But today was different.
His plans underwent yet another change.
Yan Wuji still possessed his spiritual roots and cultivation. With the Yan Family acquiring the Golden Rolls, Yan Wuji was bound to enter the Supreme Sect and had the potential to join their ranks.
As a result, the Second Prince realized he could no longer interfere with Yan Wuji.
If Yan Wuji proved untouchable, the next best course of action would be to win the Yan Family over to his side. Additionally, the Second Prince held a particular interest in Gu Chaoyan.
He saw the potential value she could bring.
"What brings you here, Second Prince? The Old Master is currently away from the mansion," Madame Yan stated, making it clear that she intended to keep the Second Prince at a distance.
Madame Yan knew all too well who had caused harm to Yan Wuji.
She had no desire to have any dealings with the Second Prince.
"Don"t worry, I am not here for Old Master Yan. I am here for Lady Chaoyan," Yan Zhengchu clarified. "Lady Chaoyan defeated me today, proving herself as a formidable cultivator. I had a chance encounter with her at the Dragon"s Vein and had a conversation. There is still some time before the Supreme Sect examination, and I would like to extend an invitation to Lady Chaoyan to visit the Dragon"s Vein with me."
"…."
Yan Zhengchu turned to Gu Chaoyan and asked, "What are your thoughts, Lady Chaoyan? When we were all teleported out, none of us obtained the inheritance power. It remains within the Dragon"s Vein, and people from other continents will undoubtedly target us. If we don"t act, we will no longer have control over our own fate."
Madame Yan was surprised by what Yan Zhengchu said.
The others thought that the inheritance was still in the dragon vein, but Chaoyan already had it.
What was going on with him right now?
Did she want to be on the same side as Chaoyan?
With eyes upon Gu Chaoyan…
Gu Chaoyan shook her head slightly. "I am not going to the dragon vein any more. You can go there yourself."
Yan Zhengchu was a little surprised.
He nodded and did not force her any more.
