Chapter 2502: Demon Clan 34
Editor: Henyee Translations
The following day, Gu Chaoyan chose a favorable moment and announced her intention to go for a walk. She brought the Dragonman along, and no one volunteered to accompany them. Seizing this opportunity, she felt a sense of relief, realizing that escaping in this manner might be relatively easy.
Unfamiliar with the illusions in this realm, Gu Chaoyan cautiously explored her surroundings. Seeing that the coast was clear, she planned her route.
Finally venturing away from the immediate vicinity, she let out a sigh of relief, believing she could navigate the area freely. Taking out her white jade sword, she intended to employ Sword Kinesis Flight.
However, after a brief attempt at flying, she was abruptly knocked back, and both she and the Dragonman tumbled to the ground. Bewildered, they looked around, finding nothing amiss.
“What’s happening? Did I b.u.mp into something?” Gu Chaoyan grumbled.
Searching the skies, she couldn’t identify any obstacles.
“Sister, are you okay?” The Dao Child of Demon Clan hurried over, expressing concern.
Gu Chaoyan discreetly hid the Dragonman.
“I’m fine. Just a little mishap,” she replied calmly.
The Dao Child of Demon Clan wore a skeptical expression, having witnessed his sister’s fall.
“Sister, haven’t you remembered? There’s a devil wall in the devil city, even if it’s not the ancient city of the demon race. You b.u.mped into the devil wall. Don’t you recall? Maybe you forgot because you’ve been gone for too long?” The Dao Child of Demon Clan inquired, sensing that his sister shouldn’t have forgotten this detail, yet here they were.
Gu Chaoyan offered an awkward smile.
There was a devil wall in the Demon Clan City? Was it possible that her attempt to escape wouldn’t be as straightforward as she had thought?
“Why are you here? Didn’t I say I wanted to take some time for myself?” Gu Chaoyan questioned.
The Dao Child of Demon Clan seemed a bit apprehensive, sensing that he might have made a mistake. He quickly responded, “Sister, I came because I had something to discuss with you. I didn’t mean to follow or bother you.”
A hint of fear showed in the Dao Child of Demon Clan’s expression. He was worried that his actions might upset his sister. If she became unhappy and distanced herself from him, it would deeply sadden him.
There was a tinge of distress in the Dao Child of Demon Clan’s look.
Gu Chaoyan felt a profound sense of helplessness.
It wasn’t about anything else; it was the resemblance between the two brothers. Despite their differing personalities, their true natures were remarkably similar.
Their reliance on her would create a burden, making it challenging for her to break free.
Gu Chaoyan released a sigh, accepting the situation.
She felt that she was really about to get frustrated.
She yearned to escape, but the ties that bound her were unyielding. There was someone here she couldn’t bring herself to let go of.
A throbbing headache settled over Gu Chaoyan.
Upon her return, the Dao Child of Demon Clan, First Elder, and others encircled her.
“Clan Leader, we’re planning to return to the Demon Clan’s ancient city tomorrow. Initially, the idea was for everyone to relocate together, but after today’s discussion, it was decided that the elders and the Dao Child of Demon Clan will return first. Once the Demon Clan’s ancient city is restored, the entire clan will follow,” explained the Dao Child of Demon Clan.
The eagerness to witness the revival of the Demon Clan’s ancient city compelled them to expedite their departure, rather than lingering in their current location.
Gu Chaoyan felt a surge of irritation.
Tomorrow?
Did that mean she had no opportunity to escape? Would she be compelled to go to the Demon Clan’s ancient city, where her true ident.i.ty would inevitably be exposed?
A sense of frustration enveloped Gu Chaoyan, uncertain of how things had taken this unfortunate turn.
Her mood soured.
However…
