Gu Chaoyan recognized the voice immediately, a deep-rooted familiarity that sent shivers down her spine. This was the same woman who had assaulted Huaijin.

Pei Yueling, the daughter of the Grand Unity’s leader, had some ominous connection to the vanishing disciples, and Gu Chaoyan’s expression remained impassive as she eavesdropped on their conversation.

“Why couldn’t you wait?” Gu Chaoyan’s voice dripped with exasperation. “Did you not consider the repercussions of your actions here on Wuyuan Island? The noise you’ve created is enough to draw unwanted attention. Capturing those disciples was already risky, but now this spectacle? Grow some discretion! If you jeopardize our operations, don’t expect any sympathy from me.” Pei Yueling snapped, her irritation palpable. “I spent all of yesterday cleaning up your mess. How do you intend to rectify it today?”

The two culprits exchanged nervous glances, clearly intimidated by Pei Yueling’s wrath. They quickly explained, “We were on the verge of a crucial breakthrough, so close to giving up. That’s why we took this risk, Senior Sister. Please, spare us. We won’t engage in such actions from now on. And we’ve ensured today’s operation was discreet; no one will discover it.”

Pei Yueling remained silent for a moment, contemplating their words. “It certainly stirred up quite the commotion, yet remains unresolved,” they added with an attempt at flattery.

Only then did Pei Yueling’s anger begin to dissipate, though her disapproval remained evident. She had not anticipated such audacity from the two without her consent, a fact that still irked her. Observing their changed demeanor, she found some satisfaction in their newfound humility.

“In the future, exercise caution,” Pei Yueling emphasized as she departed, “You must handle things discreetly to avoid drawing attention. With so many schools and Elder Men on Wuyuan Island, the old cuttlefish might catch wind of something. ”

Gu Chaoyan, Di Hongyun, and the Head of the Undead Race exchanged uneasy glances.

The mention of the “Old Cuttlefish” referred to them, not the old squid, and the weight of that realization hung heavily upon them.

They waited in silence until everyone had left before cautiously returning.

Their endeavor had yielded valuable information. They now knew that two disciples from the Moon Sect had been posing as Senior Sisters from the Grand Unity Sect. This indicated they were associated with the Grand Unity Sect, and if they were infiltrating the Moon Sect, it boded ill for the sect’s future.

Upon their return to their quarters, Di Hongyun, who had been uncharacteristically silent, suddenly erupted in frustration. “You, you stopped me! If you hadn’t, those two Junior Brothers wouldn’t have died! What a cold and ruthless woman!”

“Idiot!” The Head of the Undead Race intervened, his tone stern. “Even if you had intervened, you wouldn’t have been able to stop them. You would have jeopardized all of us and achieved nothing. Those two were elite Paragon Warriors, while we three lack martial prowess. Do you not grasp that? We were powerless to halt them!”

Di Hongyun.

“If she hadn’t stopped you, you would have ruined everything.”

“Now is not the time for blind loyalty,” she lectured with utmost seriousness..
