Chapter 2693 - 2694: Sky Sect 20
“Hey, why are you just standing there? Let’s go; time is of the essence. We might just meet the person you’re looking for,” the Heaven Emperor urged Gu Chaoyan.
Gu Chaoyan shook off her initial stupor and cast a clear-eyed gaze at the Heaven Emperor.
Contrary to Lin Xue’s perception, she wasn’t as stunningly beautiful.
Today, they were clad in green attire, making it quite challenging for them to identify the Heaven Emperor.
Yet, there were advantages to this situation. It provided an opportunity to gain insights into the Sky Sect’s dynamics and the overall situation.
In the future, she would be better prepared to seek out the Heaven Emperor and question him.
After some contemplation, Gu Chaoyan developed a rough idea and direction.
The three of them cautiously made their way out of the back mountain.
Even though they wore green attire, the back mountain belonged to Xing Sect, and many individuals recognized Gu Chaoyan and Lin Xue. Any recognition would jeopardize their plans, so they needed to exercise caution. Once beyond Xing Sect’s territory, they could act more freely.
The trio proceeded with care.
It wasn’t until they left the Xing Sect that the trio collectively sighed in relief, exchanging smug smiles.
“Let’s proceed. We’ll be at the banquet soon. Today, many people are present, representing almost every sect,” the Heaven Emperor informed.
Gu Chaoyan and Lin Xue nodded in agreement.
As they walked, the Heaven Emperor intermittently pointed out their location.
Gu Chaoyan, in turn, carefully observed and noted down their surroundings.
Upon reaching the midpoint of the mountain, the Heaven Emperor halted. “This is the banquet venue. Due to many individuals lacking the qualifications to ascend to the clouds, the banquet is held here, halfway up the mountain.”
“Not everyone is qualified to enter the clouds? The Heaven Emperor seems to think highly of himself, imposing such a foolish rule,” Gu Chaoyan couldn’t help but voice her discontent.
The Sky Sect appeared rife with class divisions, and it irked Gu Chaoyan.
Inwardly, she pondered on this.
As for the Heaven Emperor beside her…
He paid little attention to Gu Chaoyan’s words. To him, it was quite simple.
Wasn’t this rule established by that foolish person in the past? Now, here she was, unknowingly scolding herself.
The Heaven Emperor felt no anger or pressure; he simply relished her dissatisfaction.
“Is the Heaven Emperor here?” someone inquired quietly to the person beside him.
“There doesn’t seem to be any today. In the past, they would arrive early. It’s strange today,” the person responded discreetly.
Gu Chaoyan and Lin Xue overheard the conversation.
Both were displeased.
The Heaven Emperor wasn’t present?
They had come for the Heaven Emperor. If he wasn’t there, what was the point?
“Where did the Heaven Emperor go?” Lin Xue questioned the Heaven Emperor at her side.
Since their arrival, Lin Xue had developed an unusual trust in him. She even found herself subconsciously seeking information about the Heaven Emperor.
‘Where did he go?’
Of course, he was right by your side. That’s why he didn’t make an appearance.
But he obviously couldn’t answer like that.
“I’m not from the clouds, how would I know?”
