Chapter 2698: Sky Sect 24

Editor: Henyee Translations

The Heaven Emperor couldn’t help but roll his eyes at the Sect Leader of Xing Sect. It was no wonder this elder held onto his position despite his age and cultivation level.

Furthermore, it seemed that the Xing Sect had become the repository for talents overlooked by other sects.

Had it not been for the Sect Leader’s honesty, the Heaven Emperor might have considered replacing him.

How exasperating.

If not for her, as the Heaven Emperor, he wouldn’t have bothered conversing with the Sect Leader of Xing Sect.

Despite the clear instructions given, it seemed the Sect Leader still struggled to grasp the meaning.

The Heaven Emperor found it rather vexing.

“Don’t inquire too much, Gu Chaoyan, and keep her in the dark about this. Regard it as your own decision. Also, refrain from mentioning anything inappropriate in her presence, especially my identity. Do you comprehend?” The Heaven Emperor addressed the Sect Leader of Xing Sect sternly, an air of displeasure evident.

The Sect Leader of Xing Sect was taken aback. The Heaven Emperor rarely displayed such a temper.

The words sounded like a distinct dissatisfaction with him.

Retaining his position as the Sect Leader of Xing Sect was crucial. Losing it would strip him of any status within the Sky Sect.

With a worried expression, the Sect Leader hastily nodded. “Yes, yes, yes. I understand what needs to be done. You can count on me.”

The Heaven Emperor’s expression lightened slightly, showing a bit more satisfaction with the Sect Leader of Xing Sect.

If he couldn’t comprehend, there was little else to be done.

“Go,” commanded the Heaven Emperor.

The Sect Leader of Xing Sect smiled and promptly accepted the order.

He hurried back to the Xing Sect, ready to set the next steps in motion.

In a place like the Xing Sect, the Heaven Emperor could replace him as the Sect Leader with just a word. Here, in the mortal realm, he didn’t have to worry about opposition.

Therefore, he had to do a good job in the negative karma and not make any mistakes. In that case, there would be no problem.

Although Xiaoyun was good, the Heaven Emperor didn’t like her, so he could only change her.

Though the Heaven Emperor had initially requested Gu Chaoyan, the person accompanying her had a long-standing connection with the Celestial Thearch, indicating the Heaven Emperor’s fondness for her.

Hence, not only Gu Chaoyan but also this individual needed to be arranged.

Instructing someone to summon Xiaoyun, the Heaven Emperor also sent word for Gu Chaoyan and Lin Xue to join.

Xiaoyun arrived promptly, exuding a joyful demeanor.

Closely notified, she wasted no time in making her way to the gathering.

The Sect Leader of Xing Sect regarded her with a hint of regret in his eyes.

Xiaoyun was undeniably competent. Her cultivation prowess was noteworthy, and her meticulous work had maintained a flawless record since she took charge of the Heaven Emperor’s attire.

Given a choice, he would prefer not to make a change.

But the Heaven Emperor desired it.

Despite the rationale behind it, the Sect Leader of Xing Sect couldn’t voice it.

“Xiaoyun, you’ve been overseeing the Heaven Emperor’s clothing for quite some time now,” the Sect Leader remarked.

“Yes, a full year,” Xiaoyun replied joyfully, interpreting the Sect Leader’s summons as a positive development.

Her predecessor had held the position for a decade before she got the opportunity to work in the Heaven Emperor’s palace.

Now, after a year, the Sect Leader was proactively seeking her out.

It seemed the heavenly realm acknowledged her efforts, indicating a chance to continue serving the Heaven Emperor.

If it was true.
