Ch. 325Holding the Fort
Bai Ge used his newly revealed Dou Sheng strength to stop Ancient Clan elders from interfering with Xiao Yan and Xun Er, while Gu Yao secretly threatened to kill Xiao Yan. Xun Er brought Xiao Yan and his companions to her secluded home, then led them to the Ancient Clan’s coming-of-age ceremony, where they faced no obstruction.
- Bai Ge rebounded the Dou Zun elders’ pressure, declared his Dou Sheng rank, and forced Gu Dao to reprimand Gu Qian and send him away.
- Gu Yao told a silver-robed man that he would kill Xiao Yan if Xiao Yan refused to leave Xun Er, and Xun Er sensed Gu Yao’s killing intent from afar.
- Xun Er led Bai Ge, Xiao Yan, and their companions to her bamboo house, where Ling Ying explained how she had repeatedly suppressed proposals to seize the Xiao Clan.
- Xun Er and Xiao Yan prepared to attend the coming-of-age ceremony, accompanied by Bai Ge, Qian Renxue, and the others.
- Xun Er’s group arrived at the ceremony square and took the central seats without anyone challenging them.
