Chapter 2485: Demon Clan 17

Gu Chaoyan playfully slapped it again, opting not to press for further answers.

Given the Dragonman’s youth, there were certain things his father chose not to disclose, and she respected that decision.

Though uncertain about how to express it…

However…

As long as she took care of him.

In these past few days, the Dao Child of the Demon Clan visited daily and exhibited great care.

The Human Clan’s Clan Leader’s birthday celebration was approaching, and it was almost time for them to depart.

In the past, the Clan Leader of the Human Clan would not have dared to invite the Clan Leader of the Demon Clan to participate in such trivial affairs.

But things had changed.

Not only was the Clan Leader of the Demon Clan attending personally, but the First Elder and another elder were accompanying him. Similarly, the Dao Child of the Demon Clan was also part of the group.

The Dao Child of the Demon Clan’s elder brother remained in the Demon Clan City to oversee matters.

The First Elder and the other Elder were there to test her, and Gu Chaoyan was well aware of it.

She was prepared to handle whatever challenges arose.

The journey passed in silence.

Beyond the Demon Clan City’s territory, encounters with others became more frequent. Typically, when people recognized them as members of the Demon Clan, they instinctively steered clear.

As for those who directly confronted them, they showed no inclination to avoid the Demon Clan. On the contrary, they brazenly faced them head-on.

The Demon Clan came to a halt.

Outside, the angry voice of the Dao Child of the Demon Clan resonated. “This is outrageous! Are they bullying our Demon Clan just because we have no one left? Watch how I break their bones!”

Gu Chaoyan remained oblivious to the commotion outside, assuming it was a mere case of someone refusing to yield.

In the current circumstances, the Demon Clan could afford to yield.

“We are only heading to the Human Clan’s Clan Leader’s birthday celebration; there’s no need to engage in conflict on the way with anyone,” Gu Chaoyan stated, descending from her position.

Upon her descent, she witnessed the unfolding scene.

The opposing group confronted them directly, showing no signs of yielding. To make matters worse, they were beating the Demon Clan members who were carrying items for them, despite being aware that they belonged to the Demon Clan. These members refrained from using their cultivation and stood with covered bodies, bearing numerous wounds.

These humans had subjected them to chains, treating them as if they were slaves!

“When did we, the demons, fall to this state!” angrily exclaimed the Dao Child of the Demon Clan. Though murderous intent glinted in his eyes, he refrained from direct assault, instead awaiting Gu Chaoyan’s command.

“Why haven’t you taken action?” Gu Chaoyan inquired of the Demon Clan members.

Considering their capabilities, they could have resisted.

“Clan Leader, a century ago, the Demon Clan City established a rule to refrain from intervening in external matters. Without the Clan Leader’s authority, the Demon Clan City is rendered powerless,” explained the Dao Child of the Demon Clan. Despite his anger, he dared not violate the city’s rules; after all, he was the Dao Child of the Demon Clan.

The First Elder and the other elders remained silent on the matter.

Gu Chaoyan understood that they were awaiting her decision.

Surveying the situation with the Demon Clan, discomfort surged within her. Regardless of the city’s rules, she couldn’t simply stand idly by!

Gu Chaoyan snatched the whip from the man’s hand and aimed it at the face of the human.
