Chapter 2505: Demon Clan 37
Editor: Henyee Translations
The First Elder’s explanation clarified that the revival of the ancient city of the demons wasn’t triggered solely by Gu Chaoyan’s presence within its confines. Instead, it hinged on the Clan Leader of the Demon Clan taking her seat on the throne in the central city and orchestrating the revival.
Understanding this, Gu Chaoyan realized why the onlookers maintained calm expressions—apparently, the designated time for the revival had not yet arrived.
Now…
Seated on the throne, she no longer felt the same ease as before. Discomfort pervaded her, contemplating the consequences of failing to resurrect the Demon Clan’s ancient city.
Wouldn’t that expose her true identity?
Wearing a forced smile, Gu Chaoyan projected an air of unhappiness.
Time elapsed.
Initial anticipation among the crowd transformed into surprise.
“Why is there no movement?” inquired the First Elder with curiosity.
“Perhaps the ruins of the ancient city of the Demon Clan have endured for too long and require additional time,” suggested the Dao Child of the Demon Clan.
The First Elder found the suggestion plausible.
The ancient city had languished in ruins, an unprecedented state for the Demon Clan over ten thousand years.
None of the previous Clan Leaders had vanished for a thousand years; this marked an unprecedented occurrence.
In the end, what was inscribed in history books remained confined to the pages, and the true unfolding required firsthand experience.
The wait continued, stretching into an awkward passage of time.
Eventually, even Gu Chaoyan began to feel a twinge of embarrassment, prompting her to consider offering an explanation.
Abruptly, in the blink of an eye, the entire Demon Clan ancient city burst into brightness.
The ancient flowers within the central city gradually unfurled, shedding their withered appearance.
Bit by bit, the ancient city of the Demon Clan underwent a remarkable recovery.
Witnessing this, the Demon Clan members wore gratified smiles, elated at the long-awaited return of their ancient city.
In stark contrast, Gu Chaoyan appeared utterly shocked and bewildered.
What was happening?
She wasn’t the true Clan Leader of the Demon Clan. How could her mere presence revive the ancient city?
If she failed, it would be expected. If she succeeded, it struck fear into Gu Chaoyan’s heart.
Having never set foot in the second world, how could she claim the mantle of the Clan Leader of the Demon Clan?
The confusion deepened, leaving Gu Chaoyan yearning for someone to rescue her.
“Sister, come over quickly!” the Dao Child of the Demon Clan shouted with excitement.
Uncertain of how she descended from the throne, Gu Chaoyan followed the Dao Child of the Demon Clan.
The Dao Child of the Demon Clan pointed towards something not far away and said, “Sister, look, the emperor flower of the devil race has also bloomed. This is your favorite. After the ancient city of the devil race completely withered, I was very worried that this flower would never bloom again. I didn’t expect it to all revive.”
“Wow, I think there’s a new sprout next to it.”
Gu Chaoyan found it difficult to summon a smile at the sight of the enormous black flower.
It wouldn’t be appropriate to remain silent about such flowers.
Even though they were beautiful, she couldn’t muster the mood to appreciate them at the moment.
After all…
Fear consumed her now.
Was she truly the Clan Leader of the Demon Clan?
Gu Chaoyan harbored doubts.
She knew deep down that she definitely couldn’t be.
However…
She had the power to revive the ancient city of the Demon Clan.
This capability seemed to indicate otherwise.
“Sister, is allowing the ancient demon city to recover too taxing on your abilities? Perhaps you should go and rest first?” The Dao Child of the Demon Clan noticed her uneasy expression and expressed concern.
