Even if she miraculously avoided harm from the miasma, restoring the ancient city of the Demon n to its original state proved an insurmountable challenge. Sooner orter, her true identity would be unveiled.
And when that moment arrived…
The entire Demon n would show her no mercy.
The thought weighed heavily on Gu Chaoyan, intensifying her difort.
Every passing moment in this realm felt like a relentless trial, each fraught with unimaginable terror.<div>
Despite the Dao Child of Demon n’s attempts to uplift her spirits, Gu Chaoyan found it impossible to summon a smile.
The Dao Child of Demon n med himself endlessly, striving to devise ways to bring happiness to his troubled sister.
Upon their return to the Demon n City,
The First Elder weed her with utmost respect.
Yet, Gu Chaoyan couldn’t find it in herself to smile.
She almost preferred the skepticism!
The other Elders, along with the residents of the Demon n City, made a grand spectacle, joyously weing their n Leader back to the city.
This time…
They had truly acknowledged her.
Every step felt like a struggle for Gu Chaoyan.
Ahead loomed the throne of the n Leader of the Demon n—a path she had to ascend again, knowing each ascent depleted a substantial amount of her energy.
Maintaining an expressionless demeanor, Gu Chaoyan fought to conceal her emotions.<div>
She advanced step by step toward the n Leader’s throne.
With each step, she projected an image of calm dominance, disguising the trembling in her legs.
Unbeknownst to those watching, Gu Chaoyan grappled with her own unease.
Finally, she let out a sigh of relief.
From her elevated position, overlooking the Demon n City, she exuded an air of undeniable authority.
Following her lead, the First Elder and the Demon n members bowed in reverence to their n Leader.
Gu Chaoyan executed the ceremony as per her own spection.
Upon itspletion, the First Elder eagerly inquired, “n Leader, when do we n to return to the Demon n’s ancient city?”
As expected, the recurring question resurfaced.
No wonder the Dao Child of the Demon n had expressed concerns.
Return to the Demon n’s ancient city?
Risk exposure to the toxic miasma?<div>
Or openly admit that she was not the true n Leader of the Demon n?
She resisted providing a direct answer.
Perplexed, the First Elder gazed up at the n Leader.
Gu Chaoyan, appearing reluctant, offered a tentative response, “As soon as possible.”
The First Elder beamed with approval. “Yes!”
With that, the matter seemed resolved.
Wearing a troubled expression, Gu Chaoyan descended from the n Leader’s throne.
This time, she left the assembly behind, turning away to depart.
On the contrary, the First Elder and the others appeared unperturbed.
It was a characteristic trait of the n Leader to be assertive.
He directed everyone to disperse and make preparations for the return to the Demon n’s ancient city.
Once Gu Chaoyan departed, she secluded herself in a room and summoned the Dragonman. “Consider how we can escape.”<div>
“Why would you suddenly want to flee when you’re doing well as the n Leader of the Demon n?” The Dragonman, content with its indulgent lifestyle, munched on Spirit Stones, showing ack of understanding.
“This is no jest. They’re heading back to the ancient city of the Demon n. I am not the authentic n Leader of the Demon n. Going back means certain death,” Gu Chaoyan asserted gravely. “Not only due to the demon n miasma, but the ancient city of the Demon n is also intrinsically linked to the n Leader. Only the true n Leader can resurrect the ancient city, and I cannot fulfill that role.”
The Dragonman grappled with the dilemma.
Indeed, this deception posed considerable challenges.
“Why not im you want to take a stroll these few days, and we can use that as an opportunity to escape?”
