The atmosphere among the members of the Demon Clan was jubilant.
Gu Chaoyan chose to depart abruptly.
It was exasperating.
No one granted her the opportunity to make a hasty escape.
She yearned to distance herself from the Demon Clan and its people.
Yet, the Demon Clan members perceived her departure as a routine occurrence, in line with the Clan Leader's customary behavior.
Frustration overwhelmed Gu Chaoyan to the point where she contemplated leaping from the Clan Leader's quarters.
Meanwhile, the Dragonman, having failed in his escape attempt, remained remarkably composed.
"Leave it to fate. We'll deal with the situation as it comes," the Dragonman advised, adopting a philosophical tone, acknowledging the futility of escape.
The method to breach the Demon Clan's defenses remained elusive.
Escape seemed improbable and risked raising suspicions.
Perhaps it was better to abandon the endeavor altogether.
