Chapter 2705: Sky Sect 31

Editor: Henyee Translations

Although the Heaven Emperor was very dissatisfied with the Sect Leader of Xing Sect’s evil deeds, he only offered a few words of comfort. As for what to do, he would have to take it slow in the future.

Gu Chaoyan nodded, thinking that what Heaven said made sense.

It was just an old man who was a little long-winded. He just put one ear in and out and didn’t take it to heart. Actually, it didn’t have much of an impact.

Gu Chaoyan smiled. “You are right.”

“…”

“Don’t worry, we are doing well. You, on the other hand, need to train well. If there is nothing important, don’t show up here all the time. It is not good to be caught, it will affect you.” Gu Chaoyan said.

Heaven was really not bad.

He had only eaten a little of her food, but he was so dedicated to bringing them to the banquet. Even now, he still cared about them so much.

That was why Gu Chaoyan had to protect him.

The Heaven Emperor still wanted to retort, but in the end, he stopped and nodded obediently.

From his perspective, he relished the amusement of adopting the role of the Heaven Emperor before Gu Chaoyan, fully aware that no repercussions would touch him within the Sky Sect. He had the freedom to act as he pleased.

However, Gu Chaoyan and Lin Xue perceived him differently. To them, he was merely an inconspicuous disciple donned in green attire—an existence with a lowly status. Without careful consideration, his future could easily be jeopardized. This perspective fueled their genuine concern.

There was no need for him to say anything.

He also nodded. “Don’t worry, I’ll go back first. If there’s anything, I’ll look for you again.”

He went back.

Engaging with them had become a challenge; the carefree days of playing at the back of the mountain were a distant memory. The Heaven Emperor regretted his hastiness, realizing that his impulsive decision had disrupted the ease they once shared. He should have approached things more deliberately.

Meanwhile, Gu Chaoyan and Lin Xue were engrossed in their tasks, unaffected by the Heaven Emperor’s return.

Coincidentally, the Sect Leader of Xing Sect arrived with a genuine purpose this time. However, the Heaven Emperor, already in a sour mood, frowned upon learning that the Sect Leader was mistreating Gu Chaoyan. His opinion of the Xing Sect leader soured even more, and he found himself caring less about any consequences that might befall him.

With a cold expression, the Heaven Emperor inquired, “What’s the matter? How does a modest sect like yours find itself entangled in so many affairs?”

The Sect Leader of Xing Sect hesitated, sensing that his urgency may have been misguided. Nonetheless, since he was already there, admitting that everything was fine might be worse.

Summoning courage, he explained, “It’s about Xiaoyun, who used to oversee your attire. She’s been put on hold now. According to our past practices, she should serve as a maid in your palace. The decision was abrupt back then, and we never finalized it. Now, with time passed, I thought it best to address the matter.”

The Heaven Emperor looked at the Sect Leader of Xing Sect.

He did not notice the person in front at all.

The Sect Leader of Xing Sect was right.

However, he looked down on some of the people he liked.

Letting her come to his palace was better saved.

Still.

He could arrange for someone to stay in the palace.

“Since that’s the case, let her continue to be in charge of the original matters. There’s no need for her to be a maid in my palace.”
