Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Dao Child of the Demon Clan found himself in a state of confusion.
Gu Chaoyan pointed accusingly at him and declared, “He claimed that it didn’t suit me, so he removed it. Save your efforts, it’s not worth your time.”
The necklace in question was undeniably formidable.
Initially disappointed and somewhat sorrowful, the Dao Child of the Demon Clan’s mood took a swift downturn upon learning that his brother’s critique had prompted the removal. He erupted in frustration, exclaiming, “Brother!”
Silence followed.
“This is unforgivable! Don’t expect me to show you any respect in the future!” The Dao Child of the Demon Clan expressed his displeasure openly.
“I did say it looked good,” the Dao Child of the Demon Clan clarified. He found himself torn between his younger brother’s demands and the expectations of the Clan Leader, who had a tendency to blame him for various matters. In the end, he conceded; after all, the Clan Leader was a good sister.
The Dao Child of the Demon Clan sighed in resignation.
“It’s because of you. Instead of merely saying it looks good, you should have praised me. Since you failed to do so, I naturally deemed it unsatisfactory. You only have yourself to blame. You must convince me that this necklace is praiseworthy, or you’ll face consequences,” bluntly declared the Dao Child of the Demon Clan.
As for the necklace in question, he genuinely believed it lacked aesthetic appeal. How could he possibly offer praise?
His elder brother within the Demon Clan pondered inwardly.
“Clan Leader, he genuinely put in considerable effort to locate this necklace. He meticulously selected the best one after another, and such unique pieces are rather scarce, so…” The Dao Child of the Demon Clan made an earnest attempt to convey the necklace’s merit.
He was willing to acknowledge the meticulous effort but hesitated to commend its visual appeal.
“It’s indeed subpar. Save your efforts in the future. If you have spare time, focus more on matters within the clan. That’s what truly matters,” remarked the Dao Child of the Demon Clan.
He rose, offered a bow to Gu Chaoyan, and promptly departed.
He left without any apparent joy.
How could the Dao Child of the Demon Clan be content? He felt responsible for his meticulously prepared gift being cast aside.
Anxiously, the Dao Child of the Demon Clan hurriedly pursued him.
Meanwhile, Gu Chaoyan finally regained her composure.
In that moment, she extracted the Dragonman from her arms. “Why didn’t you inform me that the Dao Child of the Demon Clan’s two brothers look identical? We almost encountered a perilous situation. Fortunately, he didn’t suspect anything. Otherwise, both of us might have met our end in the Demon Clan!”
The Dragonman recoiled.
It wasn’t that it chose to withhold the information; its father had never mentioned that the Dao Child of the Demon Clan’s brothers were identical. How could it have known?
Its father had shared the details more as a story, leaving out certain crucial facts.
“He didn’t become suspicious. Moreover, these two individuals appear to acknowledge you as the Clan Leader now. That’s a positive outcome,” the Dragonman attempted to console.
‘A positive outcome?’
Whether it was genuinely positive remained uncertain.
The immediate concern, however, was not the upcoming birthday celebration of the Human Clan’s Clan Leader. They were bound to encounter numerous clan members, and the risk of exposure was substantial. With her cultivation level, escaping would be impossible if the truth came to light.
Gu Chaoyan wore a melancholic expression, unmoved by the Dragonman’s attempt at rea.s.surance.
On the side of the Dao Child of the Demon Clan:
One pursued the other, seeking an explanation.
The Dao Child of the Demon Clan encountered a few Elders.
“How is she?”
“The Clan Leader remains unchanged. Her personality shows little alteration—almost identical to before.”
