Chapter 2047 Star Moon Pavilion Compet.i.tion 2

"What? Are you too scared to face me? Playing dumb won't save you. Let me make it clear, if you don't step on that stage today, not only will you lose, but you'll also have to kneel down and call me grandpa," warned Zhuo Yuanming, noticing Gu Chaoyan's lack of movement.

Gu Chaoyan simply rolled her eyes in response.

Without hesitation, she declared, "Who said I didn't want to step on that stage?"

And with those words

She gracefully ascended the stage, taking flight.

"Let me give it a try," Gu Chaoyan stated coldly.

"It's you," Yan Zhengchu exclaimed, a hint of recognition in his eyes. "In that case, go ahead and give it a shot."

Yan Zhengchu vividly remembered the woman from the previous gathering at the dragon vein. Among the crowd, she stood out as the one who had snacks in her possession, making her quite memorable.

He had come close to purchasing snacks for her during that encounter.

However

The journey to the dragon vein turned out to be an odd experience.

The dragon vein had initially appeared to test them, and they had successfully pa.s.sed the test. Yet, inexplicably, the dragon vein reneged on its promise and teleported them back abruptly.

He was aware that everyone else had been transported back as well, with none of them obtaining the dragon vein's inheritance.

Later on, he sent people to the dragon vein, and the entrance could not be entered any more.

But he arranged for his men to stand guard there.

But he was very surprised.

This girl was representing the Yan Family.

Yan Zhengchu briefly pondered these thoughts but didn't dwell on them for long. He was pressed for time, having numerous other tasks to attend to after obtaining the fragment of the Golden Rolls.

"Make your move," Yan Zhengchu calmly instructed as he channeled his spiritual energy toward Gu Chaoyan.

Instead of directly engaging with his energy, Gu Chaoyan swiftly evaded his attacks with her agile footwork.

Since her breakthrough, she had become lighter and faster. Before Yan Zhengchu could fully perceive her movements, she had deftly dodged his strikes.

Although Gu Chaoyan was deliberately suppressing her cultivation to the level of a Martial Sage, there remained a considerable gap between a Martial Sage and a Third Heaven Martial King.

Gu Chaoyan continued to evade Yan Zhengchu's attacks, drawing comments from spectators who considered her luck to be the reason behind her successful dodges. Individuals like Zhuo Yuanming repeatedly urged her not to flee.

After a few dodges, Gu Chaoyan abruptly changed her strategy. Instead of evading, she launched a direct attack, utilizing her spiritual power. Caught off guard, Yan Zhengchu failed to dodge in time. Overwhelmed by her spiritual prowess, he was knocked backward. However, Gu Chaoyan restrained her strength, ensuring Yan Zhengchu didn't suffer too much embarra.s.sment. He managed to stay on his feet after leaving the arena.

The Yan Family's honor had been reclaimed, but Gu Chaoyan understood that it wasn't the right time for the Yan Family to bask in the limelight.

Gu Chaoyan emerged victorious, and Yan Zhengchu was forced to leave the stage.

Onlookers displayed a variety of expressions as they witnessed the outcome.

The servants of the Yan Family, initially resigned to their impending loss, couldn't bear to watch. However, as they peeked through their fingers, they turned pale with astonishment. They had already mentally prepared themselves to witness the Yan Family being ridiculed, but Gu Chaoyan's victory left them rubbing their eyes in disbelief, doubting if it was all a hallucination.

Then, they erupted into exuberant celebration, their voices echoing, "The Yan Family has triumphed! The Yan Family has triumphed!"

Zhuo Yuanming's face turned an ashen shade as he struggled to comprehend Gu Chaoyan's unexpected victory.

A few of Zhuo Yuanming's friends, who had always harbored trepidation towards the Zhuo Family's influence, found themselves at a loss. Uncertain of how to respond, they hesitated in their actions.

However, there were others who harbored no fear or intimidation in the face of the Zhuo Family.
