Ms. Doctor Divine

Hearing the reason, Gu Chaoyan looked helpless.

Alright…

It was actually because of this.

The moment Gu Chaoyan displayed a look of disdain, she suddenly realized that it might actually be a desirable job!

In a place like the Sky Sect, one’s status depended on their elevation. Those in the clouds held the highest status, while those in the Xing Sect had to gaze upward to catch a glimpse.

Given her current circumstances, aspiring to reach the clouds seemed like an unattainable dream.

God knew the amount of effort required to ascend to the clouds.

However, the prospect changed if the task involved cleaning for the Heaven Emperor. It offered the chance to see the Emperor monthly, providing Gu Chaoyan with an opportunity to question him whenever she pleased.

It sounded like a fantastic opportunity.

She believed it was possible. Entirely possible.

“How can I become the one washing the Heaven Emperor’s clothes?” Gu Chaoyan earnestly inquired from Dao Seeking.

Her question carried a serious tone, while others viewed it as nothing more than wishful thinking.

The person who spoke to her couldn’t help but burst into laughter. She then remarked, “Both of us aiming for that job? It’s simply a fool’s dream!”

“…”

“Those selected to wash the Heaven Emperor’s clothes are individuals of talent and experience, recognized by the Sect Leader of Xing Sect. You and I are tasked with laundering the garments of ordinary new disciples, tasks considered beneath the Sect Leader’s notice. Don’t harbor illusions about washing the Heaven Emperor’s clothes.”

The speaker acknowledged it was too late to approach Xiaoyun now. Attempting to do so would likely result in not even getting a glimpse. Since a chance to chat was rare, engaging in conversation here seemed like a reasonable idea.

She continued chatting with Gu Chaoyan.

Earning the recognition of the Sect Leader of Xing Sect?

Gu Chaoyan’s thoughts dwelled on how the Sect Leader perceived her. Yet, considering the Sect Leader’s apparent disdain, she dismissed any hope of genuine appreciation.

Upon her arrival at the Sky Sect, she had swiftly ascended. The Sect Leader of Xing Sect must have witnessed this. Undoubtedly, he looked down on her from the very beginning.

She pondered if there was any alternative path.

Gaining the recognition of the Sect Leader of Xing Sect appeared to be a formidable challenge.

Gu Chaoyan felt a bit frustrated.

As for the one called Xiaoyun, she got swept away by the crowd at that moment. Left alone were only the two of them, and they decided not to follow the commotion.

Gu Chaoyan gazed up at the clouds. Despite both being part of the Sky Sect, the Xing Sect felt like a world apart.

Attaining recognition from the Heaven Emperor and washing his clothes seemed challenging. Instead, she contemplated sneaking into the clouds to catch a glimpse during a quiet moment. Perhaps she might come across someone.

With her decision made, Gu Chaoyan felt a sudden enlightenment and regained her composure.

“What’s your plan?” the person asked, furrowing her brows as she observed Gu Chaoyan.

“I’m thinking of sneaking into the clouds, maybe catch a glimpse of the Heaven Emperor. But keep it between us,” Gu Chaoyan confessed openly. Grateful for the person’s previous kindness, she found it only fair to share her intentions.

“I know the way. Shall we go together?” the person whispered.

Their eyes met, expressing mutual understanding.

With their minds made up, they nodded in agreement.
