Chapter 2212 - 2212: The Zhuo Family’s Destruction 6
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“That woman has already made it clear that she won’t grant you access to the Supreme Sect,” Madame Zhuo said anxiously. “You need to resolve this issue with your brother promptly, or we’ll suffer grave consequences.”
Zhuo Yuanming’s plump face contorted with anger. That same woman had humiliated him at the Star Moon Pavilion, and now she was obstructing his entry into the Supreme Sect. He needed to devise a strategy to handle her and the Yan Family.
“Zhuo Yuanbai? He’s incapable,” a cold voice interjected, belonging to Gu Chaoyan.
As soon as those words were spoken, Gu Chaoyan and Madame Yan materialized at the Zhuo Family residence, catching them off guard.
The Zhuo Family was a prominent n.o.ble clan within the Shenyou Dynasty, heavily fortified against intrusion. Yet somehow, someone had infiltrated their premises and eavesdropped on their conversation, sending shockwaves through the household.
The Zhuo Family members were visibly shaken. Despite their unseasoned servants and Zhuo Yuanming’s status as an accomplished figure among the younger generation of the Shenyou Dynasty, they had failed to detect the intrusion. This Zhuo Family woman was clearly highly skilled, having recently attained the status of an inner sect disciple within the Supreme Sect.
If she decided to target the Zhuo Family, they would find themselves in a precarious situation.
“The only constant in life is change, and fortune’s wheel keeps turning,” Old Master remarked with a stern expression. He was irked by the condescension he’d received from these two women and was eager to retort.
Gu Chaoyan scoffed, “Change is the only constant, and fortune’s wheel turns indeed. However, I doubt Zhuo Yuanbai will ever get another chance. He’s already dead—what opportunities are there left to discuss?” Gu Chaoyan’s words cut straight to the point.
Dead?
Dead?
The Zhuo Family were totally shocked.
How could that be?
Yuanbai kept in touch with his family a few days ago. How could that be possible?
“Not just Zhuo Yuanbai, but none of you will escape today. Your family’s malevolence begs the question of your very existence,” Gu Chaoyan narrowed her eyes, emanating a lethal aura.
It was only at this moment that the Zhuo Family realized something must have transpired between Zhuo Yuanbai and Gu Chaoyan within the Supreme Sect. She had come to confront them about it.
Madame Zhuo acted swiftly, shouting, “Yuanming, run! We must avenge the
Zhuo Family and exterminate the Yan Family!”
Zhuo Yuanming was on the verge of fleeing, but Gu Chaoyan wasn’t about to grant him that opportunity. In a single, swift motion, she struck him down, ending his escape attempt.
The Zhuo Family’s reaction was just as Gu Chaoyan had antic.i.p.ated—they were determined to exact revenge and held the Yan Family solely responsible. If given the chance in the future, they would not spare the Yan Family.
“Your desires are in vain,” Gu Chaoyan said to Madame Zhuo, gesturing towards Zhuo Yuanming’s lifeless body.
Madame Zhuo gazed at Gu Chaoyan in despair and attempted to charge forward, but Gu Chaoyan raised her white jade sword and dispatched them all.
The Zhuo Family appeared insignificant in her eyes, daring to entertain the idea of the Yan Family’s annihilation.
With the Zhuo Family dealt with, only a handful of servants and guards remained, all of them on their knees before Gu Chaoyan..
