Chapter 2695: Sky Sect 21

Editor: Henyee Translations

His answer was perfunctory, but it made sense.

True.

The Celestial Thearch’s demeanor didn’t suggest he knew the Heaven Emperor’s whereabouts. Even those in the clouds seemed clueless, let alone him.

Lin Xue didn’t dwell on it too much; she simply lowered her head in disappointment and dismissed the thought.

The Heaven Emperor felt a bit puzzled.

He understood Gu Chaoyan’s desire to meet him, but Lin Xue’s intent eluded him.

He had no recollection of Lin Xue in his memory; she didn’t seem to exist at all. Why harbor such a fixation on him?

No matter how hard he pondered, he couldn’t fathom it.

The Celestial Thearch asked out of curiosity, “Why do you want to see the Heaven Emperor?”

Lin Xue shot him a glance.

She had no intention of saying anything at all. “Why are you asking this? You’re not the Heaven Emperor.”

‘That’s me.’

The Heaven Emperor thought to himself.

However, he could not expose his identity now.

He was also a little curious, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

“At the very least, I’m on your side. Can’t you just tell me?” the Heaven Emperor continued.

Lin Xue ignored him.

Gu Chaoyan smiled at him. “You are a man, why are you gossiping?”

The Heaven Emperor had no choice but to shut up.

It seemed he would have to wait a long, long time to uncover the reason.

He resigned himself to closing the door on his curiosity.

Just as the trio engaged in conversation.

The Sect Leader of Xing Sect, upon spotting a familiar figure, erupted in anger. “You two, instead of staying in the back mountain, you’ve come here to cause trouble!”

Gu Chaoyan and Lin Xue were startled at the familiar voice.

How unlucky to be caught so easily?

If caught again, not only would she face consequences within the back mountain, but she might also be expelled from Xing Sect entirely. Without a place in Xing Sect, she’d have no chance at all. Lin Xue’s eyes reflected her disappointment.

Gu Chaoyan exchanged a glance with her.

Instantly, they shared a tacit understanding.

Run!

When the time came, they would just deny it.

Neither of them looked back. Without another word, they bolted.

The Sect Leader of Xing Sect wasn’t inclined to let them off easily. He had long harbored dissatisfaction with them and saw an opportunity to potentially expel them from the Xing Sect.

He pursued them hastily.

In contrast, the Heaven Emperor didn’t rush to follow. Instead, he turned around and fixed a stern gaze on the Sect Leader of Xing Sect.

The Sect Leader of Xing Sect was startled. None of the Sect Leaders knew where the Heaven Emperor had disappeared to, and they were still searching for him. Why was he here, clad in this robe, and with those two?

The Heaven Emperor warned the Sect Leader to cease the pursuit with a look.

Only then did he turn around and give chase.

His mood was somewhat soured. What should have been a positive event had been marred by the Sect Leader of Xing Sect’s interference. There were certain things he now had to reveal.

This typically sluggish Sect Leader of Xing Sect, for some unknown reason, displayed unexpected agility. He excelled where he shouldn’t and failed where he should have succeeded.

Honestly…

The Heaven Emperor was infuriated.

The Sect Leader of Xing Sect stood utterly bewildered. He didn’t know how to proceed or what to do next.

Meanwhile, the Heaven Emperor caught up with a composed expression. When they reached a less crowded area, he cautioned, “Stop running. There’s no one chasing you.”
