Chapter 2205: Zhuo Yuanbai’s Evil Act 1
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Chaoyan firmly grasped Zhuo Yuanbai’s arm, her grip unyielding.
She held onto Zhuo Yuanbai, not out of enmity, but due to a strange sensation of her own essence emanating from him. It was perplexing. The only plausible explanation was that Zhuo Yuanbai possessed something left by Yan Wuji.
“What are you doing?” Zhuo Yuanbai exclaimed, his voice echoing loudly.
“How dare you!” Gu Chaoyan retorted, her voice laced with anger. “I’m an inner sect disciple, and you, an outer sect disciple, should address me as Senior
Sister. How dare you!”
Zhuo Yuanbai hesitated but complied reluctantly.
“Now, hand it over!” Gu Chaoyan demanded, her gaze fixed intently on him.

“Give me Yan Wuji’s belongings,” Gu Chaoyan stated, her eyes narrowing dangerously. Zhuo Yuanbai panicked, yet he responded with a hint of confidence, “No.’
“Remember, everything I gave to Yan Wuji carries my magical essence,” Gu Chaoyan warned, determined not to let him off the hook.
Zhuo Yuanbai’s mood darkened.
Gu Chaoyan was an inner sect disciple, and the chasm between inner and outer sect members was substantial.
Inner sect disciples were skilled at conserving energy.
“Why bother giving them to him? He lacks the expertise to use them, so he entrusted them to me,” Zhuo Yuanbai admitted openly, surprising everyone present.
She retrieved the items from her storage space. Aside from the magical essence and the charm, everything else remained intact.
“He gave them to you?” Yan Wuji was no fool to hand them directly to Zhuo
Yuanbai.
Unless…
“Where is he?” Gu Chaoyan inquired. Follow current on novel-online.com
“Yan Wuji is no more,” Yan Zhengchu replied as he emerged from the shadows.
“He’s dead, and whose fault is that? He was too foolish to harness those artifacts. Since he couldn’t fathom their use and couldn’t protect himself, he might as well have handed them over to me. I’d have made good use of at least one,” Zhuo Yuanbai retorted.
It was true.
He acknowledged it.
Originally, he had schemed to discreetly claim those items and act as though nothing had transpired.
But now that he had been exposed, what did it matter?
Zhuo Yuanbai was merely an outer sect disciple of the Supreme Sect, but he was still a part of it. They shouldn’t be pitted against each other. Even if it were a competition, they were supposed to step into the ring, and he had successfully avoided that.
Even if Gu Chaoyan had uncovered something, she couldn’t take any action against him, could she?
That’s why he confessed to the truth.
Zhuo Yuanbai had tried to conceal the truth.
Yet Gu Chaoyan grasped the underlying message clearly – he had taken Yan Wuji’s identity and used it to preserve his own life, while Yan Wuji hadn’t.The most update n0vels are published on Novᴇ(l)Fɪre .ɴᴇt

Yan Wuji was the Yan Family’s last hope.
But Zhuo Yuanbai was truly exasperating!
He was convinced that Gu Chaoyan wouldn’t dare to do anything to him.
However, she was Gu Chaoyan, and there was nothing beyond her capabilities.
Gu Chaoyan stashed away the evidence.
Zhuo Yuanbai had no choice but to acknowledge that those possessions were not his own.
He had to come to terms with it.
His life was saved.
After Gu Chaoyan put away the stuff, she used the power of inheritance and struck at Zhuo Yuanbai directly. That strike almost killed Zhuo Yuanbai.
Zhuo Yuanbai looked at Gu Chaoyan in disbelief.
She was really going to do that to him?
“Surprised, huh?”
