Chapter 2685: Sky Sect 11

In the Xing Sect, their primary responsibility was cleaning. As long as they excelled in their assigned tasks, they had the freedom to organize their own schedules. With this flexibility, the two of them aimed to swiftly complete their duties and discreetly slip away to the clouds during the remaining time.
With a silent understanding between them, they agreed upon a specific time and location for their venture.
Returning peacefully at that moment, they decided to patiently wait until the next day to carry out their plan together.
Gu Chaoyan laid down when she got home.
As for the others, they should have returned from Little Yun’s place. Their faces were filled with envy.
At this moment, they were discussing. “If only I could make it to the Heaven Emperor’s laundry mountain one day. That would be the only one in the Xing Sect.”
“Not to mention the Heaven Emperor, even for the other people in the clouds would do.”
“We don’t know how long we’ll have to work on this.”
Hearing the voices, Gu Chaoyan found herself at a loss for words.
To outsiders, gaining entry into the Sky Sect was considered an unparalleled honor and a coveted achievement for many. However, within the Sky Sect, there existed various hierarchical levels.
In places like the Xing Sect, the original aspirations of many were shattered by a lifestyle that deterred higher cultivation pursuits. Instead, they aimed to become individuals tasked with washing clothes for more powerful figures, transforming into entities envied by everyone in the Xing Sect. Nevertheless, even if one could wash clothes for the Heaven Emperor, it didn’t guarantee security. If the Sect Leader of Xing Sect decided to look down on them one day, such a position could easily be taken away.
Gu Chaoyan released a sigh of relief, pondering her plans for the following day.
As the sun rose, Gu Chaoyan and those she had made plans with the day before gathered to freshen up together. The earlier they completed their morning routine, the sooner they could slip away.
When the female official in charge of them saw this situation, she was more or less relieved.
After all, she knew that diligence could make up for her lack of intelligence, and diligence could make up for her stupidity.
With Gu Chaoyan’s arrival in the Sky Sect, she found herself perceived as nothing more than a fool by the residents.
Helpless and unable to prove herself, Gu Chaoyan had no option but to accept her assigned role.
Once their morning routines were complete, Gu Chaoyan and the man rendezvoused at the designated meeting place. Smiling at each other, they proceeded.
“The rules in the Sky Sect are stringent. Each sect has its designated attire, and ascending without the authority token is a challenging feat for those lower down the hierarchy. Yet, for us, it’s remarkably simple,” she remarked, producing two plain white garments—one for herself and one for Gu Chaoyan. They adorned the shirts, and she added with a mysterious smile, “I took these. In the Sky Sect, only the elite wear plain clothes, and since we don’t have any, no one will suspect us in these.”
Gu Chaoyan couldn’t help but laugh. The acquaintance she had made proved advantageous, saving her the trouble of devising her own plan.
The two stealthily ascended, encountering almost no obstacles along the way.
As they neared the clouds, providing a chance to meet the Celestial Thearch, Gu Chaoyan inquired, “What brings you here?”
“Seeking someone differs from your desire to meet the Heaven Emperor. I have important matters to attend to,” she replied solemnly.
Curious, Gu Chaoyan asked, “What kind of business do you have?”
