Chapter 2732: Flower Sect 3
Editor:Â Henyee Translations
Gu Chaoyan nodded seriously.
She had come with the Heaven Emperor, and she was also from the Sky Sect. There was no mistake.
The few of them snorted.
Their disdain for individuals from the Sky Sect had originated with Feng Leâs actions. Feng Le, a woman from the Sky Sect, had infamously seized the Phoenix Flower from their Flower Sect, shattering their hopes of their father ascending to the position of Sect Leaderâa prospect that had been anticipated for a millennium. The ensuing bitterness lingered, even after Feng Leâs demise. The mere sight of Sky Sect members stirred resentment within them.
âWhatâs your connection to Feng Le? Are you her sister?â the groupâs leader queried bluntly.
Gu Chaoyan furrowed her brow.
She disliked the direct interrogation. Despite her amnesia, she remained astute enough to discern their underlying emotions.
While ignorance might have been plausible if they harbored ulterior motives, their blatant animosity was unmistakable.
She shook her head. âI have no knowledge of any Feng Le.â
This revelation elicited mild surprise from the group. Did this mean she had no ties to Feng Le?
Their uncertainty left them momentarily at a loss.
If her connection to Feng Le were affirmed, they would reclaim their sense of pride. However, if not, they were uncertain how to proceed.
Gu Chaoyan did not want to talk with them. They hated her so much, yet they still wanted to talk with her. Gu Chaoyan could not understand what was going on.
If they didnât want to leave, they could just leave.
âLin Xue, letâs go somewhere else.â Gu Chaoyan subconsciously went to the person closest to her.
Lin Xue nodded knowingly.
She was acutely aware of the confrontational intent behind the groupâs presence. With Gu Chaoyanâs amnesia leaving her vulnerable, they saw her as an easy target, especially given their subordinate status and modest cultivation levels. Knowing the Heaven Emperorâs directive to protect Gu Chaoyan, Lin Xue deemed it prudent to withdraw.
Huailan echoed her sentiment with a relieved sigh.
As they began to depart, the group voiced their discontent.
But Gu Chaoyan halted, turning to face them, silently prompting the woman to continue.
âThen who are you? Whatâs your connection to the Heaven Emperor? His fiancĂ©e, perhaps?â the woman inquired.
Gu Chaoyan shook her head definitively, confident in the negative answer.
Such a relationship had never been mentioned by the Heaven Emperor.
The group found themselves at an impasse.
If Gu Chaoyan wasnât linked to Feng Le and wasnât the Heaven Emperorâs fiancĂ©e, what role did she hold to warrant her presence at the Flower Sectâs gathering?
âCould you be⊠the Heaven Emperorâs younger sister?â they conjectured.
This seemed the most plausible explanation.
In that moment, many who had previously harbored animosity towards Gu Chaoyan found a newfound appreciation for her.
âIf she truly is his sister, then fostering a favorable relationship with her is imperative! Itâs the key to securing a marriage with the Heaven Emperor of the Sky Sect!â
Despite Gu Chaoyanâs lack of association with Feng Le, they harbored no intentions of absolving her of accountability.
Their desire for retribution against the Sky Sect for past grievances remained steadfast.
âDo you recall the events from over a millennium ago? Feng Le, from your Sky Sect, pilfered our Flower Sectâs prized Phoenix Flower. Now, as a member of the Sky Sect yourself, how can you possibly abstain from attempting the same?â The woman leading the group practically wore her scheme on her sleeve.
