Gu Chaoyan gazed at the Dao Child of the Demon Clan with a complex expression.
Unlike others, the Dao Child of the Demon Clan treated the Clan Leader of the Demon Clan with genuine sincerity, doing everything for her welfare.
Gu Chaoyan knew him to be different, a man of integrity without impurities.
Although she was unaware of the events that transpired between the Dao Child of the Demon Clan and the Clan Leader of the Demon Clan in the distant past, Gu Chaoyan couldn’t help but feel a twinge of guilt at this moment.
Driven by that guilt, she averted her eyes.
Just as she was about to speak, the individual she had dispatched returned precisely at that moment. He spoke softly, “Clan Leader, it’s no longer possible for us to leave. There’s a barrier around the residence of the Clan Leader of the Human Clan, and there are numerous guards outside. We can only enter and not exit. The Human Clan hasn’t provided any explanation.”
“His actions are quite deceitful. I suspect this birthday celebration is more than it seems; the Clan Leader of the Human Clan likely has ulterior motives.”
Gu Chaoyan was accompanied by individuals from the ancient city of the Demon Clan, accustomed to witnessing much of the world. Through keen observation, they could deduce the unfolding situation.
“How dare they!” exclaimed the Dao Child of the Demon Clan, expressing his discontent.
At this point, the First Elder and the others also grasped the essence of what seemed to have occurred. They approached and inquired, “Is something amiss?”
Gu Chaoyan nodded.
Indeed, something was amiss.
“I fear that the Human Tribe Leader’s birthday isn’t as simple as it appears. Let’s proceed with caution,” cautioned Gu Chaoyan.
She then discreetly instructed the individual in a hushed tone to relay to the Clan Leader of the Bone Clan that no further details should be divulged.
With these arrangements in place, Gu Chaoyan regained her composure.
The birthday celebration for the Clan Leader of the Human Clan continued seamlessly.
Well-wishes were exchanged amicably.
The Clan Leader of the Human Clan took the opportunity to share the joyous news of the return of the Clan Leader of the Demon Clan, expressing his profound sense of fortune.
Time swiftly passed.
As the event drew to a close, it was time for the guests to depart.
Seated in his place, the Clan Leader of the Human Clan made no move. He simply observed the departing guests with an inscrutable smile on his face.
“Let’s go.”
Their ability to leave or not hinged on the capabilities they possessed.
Soon, the guests discovered that a barrier had been erected around the residence of the Clan Leader of the Human Clan. This barrier hadn’t been present when they arrived, indicating it was established during the birthday celebration. Its sudden appearance restricted their departure. What did this signify?
The Clan Leader of the Blood Clan reacted vehemently, returning in anger. “Clan Leader of the Human Clan, what is the meaning of this? We came to celebrate your birthday, and you set up a barrier to keep us from leaving?”
“Clan Leader of the Blood Clan, calm yourself. While this barrier indeed exists, if you possess the ability, you can naturally break through it. If you can’t…”
“Then, what’s the purpose of leaving?”
“What are you implying?”
“If you lack the ability to breach it, then stay.” The Clan Leader of the Human Clan wore a sinister smile, dripping with a thirst for blood.
“You seek our lives?” The Clan Leader of the Blood Clan finally grasped the sinister truth.
This purported birthday celebration was nothing more than a cunning ambush—a treacherous ploy against the various clans!
Throughout the years, the Human Clan had harbored ambitions within the Second World, aiming to supplant the erstwhile Demon Clan. Many considered the Clan Leader of the Human Clan’s apprehensions to be mere paranoia.
Now, it appeared…
