They were pletely unaware of the events that had unfolded, but it was apparent that the Zhuo Family must have provoked the Yan Family in some way, prompting such drastic action. Otherwise, the Yan Family would not have resorted to such measures.
Though they were not members of the Zhuo Family by blood, they were in the employ of the Zhuo Family. If any harm befell them, they would not survive either. After all, people yearned to preserve their lives, not to lose them.
She gazed at the individuals now kneeling before her.
Gu Chaoyan hadn’t intended to get entangled in their affairs. These people had no affiliation with the Zhuo Family, let alone any motive for seeking vengeance on their behalf.
However…
In light of their witnessing her actions, she felt pelled to clarify certain matters. “I am the one who aided you today. The Yan Family’s actions were not unprovoked; Zhuo Yuanbai of the Zhuo Family’s devious machinations led to Yan Wuji’s demise. I seek revenge, nothing more. You are innocent; just depart.”
With these words, Gu Chaoyan departed, acpanying Madame Yan using her Sword Kinesis Flight.
The Zhuo Family’s matter had been resolved, but Yan Wuji was gone.
Madame Yan couldn’t help but feel sorrow, but..
From Gu Chaoyan’s perspective, things weren’t as dire as she had anticipated.
Madame Yan was now expecting again, and the Zhuo Family had been avenged. Madame Yan displayed a more forgiving nature than Gu Chaoyan had anticipated. Hopefully, Yan Wuji’s legacy wouldn’t linger with the Yan Family for too long.
With the Zhuo Family settled, Gu Chaoyan needed to return to her origins.
However, before departing…
Gu Chaoyan left a collection of pills for the Yan Family.
“Madame Yan, these are the pills you should begin taking. They are
foundational pills, beneficial not only for your health but also for the child’s
well-being. Once the child reaches two years of age, they can consume one pill
per week to aid in their cultivation. This sword is of medium-grade quality and
will serve them until adulthood. Lastly, here’s an array charm to be used in
times of danger in the future.”
“There are numerous matters to attend to at the school, so I’ll hold onto them for the time being,” Gu Chaoyan explained as she stowed away the items.
If not for the events in Xuhai City, she could have taken things more leisurely.
However, the current situation demanded her attention, and she couldn’t predict what the future held. Thus, this was the best course of action.
Before departing, Gu Chaoyan remained concerned. After some thought, she decided to set up an additional enchantment for the Yan Family’s protection.
Then, she handed over an authority token.
“If you encounter any insurmountable issues, simply crush this authority token. I’ll return once I sense it,” Gu Chaoyan emphasized.
“Is something wrong?” Madame Yan inquired with a worried expression. If that were the case, why was it so grave? Very few sect disciples faced accidents during missions, but Wuji did. There were numerous disciples who might face such risks. Madame Yan couldn’t help but worry about potential implications.
That’s why Gu Chaoyan was taking this matter so seriously.
Gu Chaoyan was pleasantly surprised by Madame Yan’s perceptiveness. However, she didn’t want to burden them excessively. She shook her head gently. “I’m perfectly fine.”
“It’s just that opportunities for me to leave the school are rare, so I want to ensure that everything proceeds smoothly.”
“That’s reassuring,” Madame Yan sighed in relief.
With a smile, Gu Chaoyan didn’t linger any longer. “I must be on my way now..”
