Chapter 2504: Demon Clan 36
Editor: Henyee Translations
Whether it was the Dao Child of the Demon Clan or the First Elder, their expressions remained unchanged. Just as they entered, their gaze held a hopeful focus on the path ahead.
Gu Chaoyan felt a growing sense of confusion.
Since entering the Demon Clan’s ancient city, nothing seemed to have shifted.
Wasn’t this peculiar?
Had they not noticed anything amiss?
Gu Chaoyan grappled with her uncertainty.
Observing her scanning the surroundings upon entering the ancient city, the Dao Child of the Demon Clan voiced concern, “Sister, it’s been a while since you returned. Are you unfamiliar with the ancient city, or have you not witnessed its appearance since its decline?”
“Back then, even we were taken aback by the state of the Demon Clan’s ancient city.”
“Fortunately, Sister’s return marks the conclusion. The desolation of the Demon Clan’s ancient city is truly disheartening,” remarked the Dao Child of the Demon Clan.
Even the once-childish demeanor of the Dao Child underwent a subtle transformation upon entering the Demon Clan’s ancient city. Their anticipation for change in the ancient city was evident.
Gu Chaoyan forced a smile, choosing not to respond.
While everyone hoped for a transformation in the ancient city, Gu Chaoyan harbored doubts about her ability to effect any change.
Disappointment might await them.
Upon entering the central city of the Demon Clan’s ancient city from the outer regions, they discovered a darkness that surpassed other areas. Black clouds shrouded the central city.
They ascended the stairs crafted from black clouds, progressing step by step.
Upon reaching the entrance of the central city, two stone-crafted Demon Clan beasts stood guard, their imposing presence seeming to suppress the heart of the city.
Gu Chaoyan was taken aback.
The demonic visage of the Demon Clan beast appeared excessively ferocious, resembling a Rakshasa.
As an impostor Clan Leader of the Demon Clan, she felt an added weight of guilt upon entering the central city. This guilty conscience heightened her apprehension when confronted by the menacing demon beast.
They hastened their pace, advancing directly into the city.
Only then did a semblance of ease settle over her.
“Clan Leader, please take your seat on the throne,” commanded the First Elder with authority.
Gu Chaoyan cast a glance toward the distant black throne.
Her expression soured; the throne of the Demon Clan City felt like a deliberate trap for her.
The Clan Leader’s throne hovered above, requiring her to traverse the air to reach it.
In contrast, the throne in this Demon Clan ancient city differed.
Though distant, it had stairs leading upward, fashioned from Demon Clan beasts. To ascend, she merely needed to step onto these stairs.
Was this a deliberate choice by these individuals?
Gu Chaoyan pivoted, fixing a stern gaze on the First Elder.
Her eyes held a hint of reproach.
The First Elder found themselves inexplicably stared at, uncertain of their perceived transgression.
Ever since he entered the Demon Clan’s ancient city, everything had been proceeding smoothly. Furthermore, he had shown utmost respect for the Clan Leader. Why, then, was the Clan Leader casting such a scrutinizing gaze upon him?
The First Elder found himself filled with doubt.
In the meantime, Gu Chaoyan had already taken her seat on the Clan Leader’s throne.
Acknowledging the need to address pressing matters, the First Elder spoke, “Clan Leader, by sitting on the throne, you will soon awaken the ancient city of the Demon Clan.”
Upon hearing the prospect of the Demon Clan’s ancient city revival, a wave of excitement swept through the onlookers.
“What?”
Finally grasping the situation, Gu Chaoyan’s understanding dawned.
