Chapter 2699: Sky Sect 25

Editor: Henyee Translations

That would indeed be marvelous.

Managing the Heaven Emperor’s attire in the Xing Sect was vastly different from serving the Heaven Emperor directly in the celestial realm.

During that time, not only the Xing Sect members but also a portion of the Sky Sect would seek to gain her favor.

Contemplating the immense prestige that awaited her, Xiaoyun’s spirits soared, and her smile deepened.

The Sect Leader of Xing Sect found it hard to witness her joy.

Nevertheless, he had no alternative. Helplessly, he suggested, “After a year of service, you might be feeling a bit weary. How about this? I’ll assign you to another role.”

Xiaoyun nodded, maintaining her cheerful demeanor.

“The Xing Sect currently lacks a female official. How about taking on that responsibility for the time being? I’ll make further arrangements for you afterward,” proposed the Sect Leader of Xing Sect, revealing a hint of reluctance.

Xiaoyun’s smile suddenly froze.

What?

Chief female official of Xing Sect?

It sounded nice, but what was going on?

That was a worse position than now.

How was this better? It was simply worse.

Typically, those tasked with the Heaven Emperor’s attire would eventually serve directly in the celestial realm. The timing of this transition was a matter of inevitability. She could wait for it to happen.

But what was the purpose of her return?

Did they expect her to age away in this lackluster Xing Sect?

“Sect Leader, shouldn’t the female official overseeing the Heaven Emperor’s attire eventually work for the Heaven Emperor in the celestial realm? Why am I back in the Xing Sect?” Xiaoyun expressed her grievance. Advocating for herself, she questioned, “What’s the issue here? Have I done something wrong? How could you treat me like this, Sect Leader?”

The Sect Leader of Xing Sect was utterly flabbergasted.

How had he overlooked this crucial detail in front of the Heaven Emperor? The Heaven Emperor wanted to replace the current female official overseeing his attire, meaning the incumbent would need a new assignment. Ordinarily, she would be relocated to the celestial palace.

The Heaven Emperor hadn’t broached the topic, nor had he anticipated it.

Had it been mentioned, it would have been a straightforward resolution.

The Sect Leader of Xing Sect felt a twinge of embarrassment. This matter was clearly his responsibility.

Surveying Xiaoyun’s aggrieved expression, guilt gnawed at him.

“Regarding this matter, Xiaoyun, I’ll need your patience for a few days. I’ll find the right moment to discuss the prospect of you working in the Heaven Emperor’s palace. It will be sorted out in due time. Don’t worry too much,” the Sect Leader of Xing Sect assured. He planned to bring up the topic when the time was right. Given the Heaven Emperor’s current displeasure with him, it wasn’t wise to exacerbate matters by raising issues related to a female official.

To Xiaoyun, these assurances held little hope. She remained unaware of any complications in her position.

“Go back and rest for now. Regarding the matter of your assignment to the Heaven Emperor Palace, await my updates. Don’t dwell on it too much for now,” the Sect Leader of Xing Sect urged, feeling uneasy as he ushered her away.

Xiaoyun ran out while crying.

She happened to run into Gu Chaoyan and Lin Xue. She glared at them and ran off in tears.

“What’s going on?” Lin Xue asked in confusion.

Gu Chaoyan shook her head. She had no idea.

They couldn’t even defend themselves.

With the Sect Leader of Xing Sect summoning them, it could only mean one thing—he intended to investigate the issue.

They had previously decided to deny everything, regardless of the circumstances.

Anxious, the two of them entered the situation.

The Sect Leader of Xing Sect hastily put on a forced smile.

It was impossible for him to genuinely smile at them.

Yet, given the Heaven Emperor’s commendation, he felt compelled to feign laughter.
