Chapter 222: Chapter 222: Secondary Options



Even though he used suspicious means to make her a disciple, it didn\'t change the fact that in the eyes of the system, she was one.

He knew that he was already caught up in a lot of mess and didn\'t have time to pay attention to them, but with the constantly changing scenario, he could feel that it was getting more complicated.

Although only a few months had passed since he accepted a disciple, which was no different than a few days for a cultivator with a long life span, he realized that he couldn\'t let it keep happening.

He needed them to become stronger, at least someone like Zia. He was already planning to make his first disciple grow during this trip to the Western Continent.

Zia looked at the pill in her hand. She felt quite surprised that Eren was actually willing to hand her the pill for free when it could easily be sold to the Alchemist Association for sky high price.

She gazed at him, feeling grateful. However, she didn\'t let it show on her face. Subconsciously, she had already started accepting herself as his disciple.

His skills were definitely much higher than her. He was also more considerate than she had thought before, treating her actually like a good master would.

"Is there something on my face?" Eren asked, noticing the strange gaze of Zia.

It wasn\'t the first time he had seen a gaze like this, which really made him wonder why so many women were looking at him with a similar gaze recently.

Zia turned her face to the other side and stopped looking at him, whispering something under her breath.

"Thank you, Master."

Even as she thanked Eren, her voice was so low that it was impossible to hear what she was saying. It was as if she was mumbling to herself.

....

The Core Region of the Sect was larger than an ordinary city of this world. Still, it didn\'t take long for Eren to reach the center of the area, catching a glimpse of the Sect Master\'s Palace.

The closer he came to the Palace, the more suppressed he felt.

In the end, he had no choice but to release his own aura to surround his body and protect himself. He only kept the aura limited to himself to counter the powerful auras that were spread near the palace.

"It seems the other Great Elders are also here," he said, guessing the source of these strong suppressive auras.

"The Sect Master has gone missing. It makes sense for them to come and check themselves," Zia replied. She herself came here to check.

If it was actually true that Feng Yu was killed, then this was truly a disastrous development for the sect. Not only did it leave them vulnerable to foreign attacks, but it could also ignite a brutal conflict for the position of the next sect master.

Even without an overload, the sect was still the strongest existence in the Eastern Continent. Even in this situation, it wasn\'t unlikely for Great Elders within the sect to think of their own benefits.

Eren landed in front of the Palace, which was just as heavily guarded.

The Leader of Core Guards was already standing outside, his complexion pale. There was a wound on the right side of his face, which was still bleeding.

Eren looked at the Captain of the Guards who didn\'t try to stop him, noticing the presence of Elder Zia next to him.

"Why don\'t you take a healing pill for that wound?" Eren asked the man. "Though it\'s quite impressive that you survived facing the person that even the Sect Master failed."

"I would advise you to watch your words carefully, Elder Ren. Don\'t talk about the Sect Master if you don\'t know anything!" The man\'s expression darkened.

He didn\'t like the fact that Eren had already come to the conclusion that the Sect Master had failed and died.

"He didn\'t face the culprit. Do you really think he would have survived if that happened?" Zia lazily responded, looking down on the Captain of the Guards.

"He didn\'t? Then this wound on his face?" Eren was taken aback. If it wasn\'t done by the person who managed to sneak into the core region, then there was only one explanation left for him.

"Is this the work of the Great Elders?" Eren asked, but the Captain of the Guards didn\'t reply.

"I see." The silence of this man was the answer Eren needed to confirm his assumption.

As the Guards had failed to protect the sect master or even notice the intruders, it wasn\'t surprising that he ended up in this situation. It wasn\'t easy to face the Great Elder\'s wrath.

What was more surprising was that he was left alive with only this much punishment for his failure?

Eren tossed a healing pill towards the Captain of the Guards which could allow him to heal.

The Captain of the Guards tossed the healing pill back at Eren, not even thinking about consuming it.

"He doesn\'t want to heal. If you healed him, it would be worse for him as seeing him unharmed while the sect master is missing might flare up their anger again," Zia reminded Eren, who had underestimated the Great Elders that had gathered inside the Palace.

Eren didn\'t respond, but he realized that there was some truth to her words. He kept the healing pill back and went past the man, taking his first step inside the Sect Master\'s Palace.

[You have triggered secondary options]

[Please select the options carefully]

As his feet touched the floor inside the palace, notifications appeared in his head. This was the first time he had seen a warning under the notification.

He also didn\'t understand why this was called the secondary option? It felt out of place.

His thoughts were already in a mess when he saw the changes in the notification, but the moment he read the first option, his pupils trembled.
