“Misunderstanding, it’s a misunderstanding! Everyone, stop!” pleaded the members of the Jin family, rus.h.i.+ng to diffuse the situation.
“Misunderstanding?” Gu Chaoyan raised her eyebrows. “As a Demon Clan member, I have been detained and whipped by your people. Is that a misunderstanding? How about I put the bracelet on your anklet and whip you a few times to see if you still consider it a misunderstanding?”
Protests arose among the Jin Family members upon hearing a woman speak.
The elder of the Jin family restrained them. “Don’t act hastily.”
“The ancient city of the demon race has never bothered with such matters. Today’s anomaly suggests an unusual event in the ancient city of the demon race. This woman bears a striking resemblance to the Clan Leader of the Demon Clan. If our Jin Clan mishandles this situation, our clan might face the risk of extermination. This Dao Child of the Demon Clan is already exceptionally formidable,” the elder of the Jin Clan advised.
The Jin family had already suffered considerable losses and couldn’t afford another setback.
“This predicament is the fault of the Jin family. We will make amends and pledge not to mistreat them in the future. As compensation, each person will receive 50 kilograms of black iron and 50 kilograms of Spirit Stones. Lord Demon, do you find this acceptable?” the Jin family proposed, adopting a conciliatory tone.
Gu Chaoyan glanced at the Demon Clan members, who appeared content and nodded in agreement.
Satisfied with the resolution, Gu Chaoyan decided to let the Jin family off.
Given that the Demon Clan couldn’t swiftly regain its former glory, maintaining a low profile allowed ordinary Demon Clan members to lead better lives.
With the matter resolved, Gu Chaoyan chose to depart.
It must be acknowledged that it was truly invigorating.
Following this incident, the two Elders of the Demon Race exchanged glances.
Their reason for not intervening earlier was a test for their Clan Leader, a.s.sessing how she
intended to address the current predicament of the Demon Clan.
Firstly, they aimed to scrutinize her approach.
Secondly, they sought insights into the Demon Clan’s future actions based on her decisions.
The Clan Leader displayed little change. She remained flamboyant, refusing to back down in both her cultivation and handling the Demon Clan’s affairs. She pressed forward steadily without retreat.
“Clan Leader, it appears to be our Clan Leader. She remains unchanged, but her cultivation seems less robust. I wonder if she has encountered cultivation difficulties,” remarked the First Elder in agreement.
Another Elder concurred, “We can ascertain this directly after the Clan Leader of the Human Clan’s birthday.”
“The Clan Leader is indeed the Clan Leader. We’ve endured our frustration for centuries. Today, we feel truly invigorated. Life is genuinely refres.h.i.+ng with the Clan Leader around.” The elated Elder expressed his contentment.
The First Elder nodded.
Today, the Demon Clan was undeniably jubilant.
News of the Clan Leader of the Demon Clan’s return was bound to spread.
They could officially confirm this matter on the Clan Leader of the Human Clan’s birthday.
The two Elders were in high spirits.
However, the most joyous person was undoubtedly the Dao Child of the Demon Clan.
He could finally take action.
Moreover…
His sister had forgiven him.
The Dao Child of the Demon Clan happily approached Gu Chaoyan and inquired, “Sister, are you pleased with what I did today? I refrained from killing those loathsome humans, leaving some room for them, just as you did.”
