Chapter 69: Even if you were


    "Are we heading to the Southern Continent now?"


    "That was the n, but there is one more ce we need to stop at before that," replied Eren.


    Curiosity piqued, Xiu Ying asked, "And where would that be?"


    Eren''s expression turned serious as he revealed, "Someone attempted to harm my dear disciple. As a Master, I cannot let them go."


    Xiu Ying nodded in understanding, no further questions needed. The implication behind Eren''s words was crystal clear to her.


    They were going back to the City they came from. To have a small meeting with the Prince of this Kingdom.


    It would have been different if the Prince was under their control when he tried to kill her. It would be clear that he did not want to do that.


    But the Prince did this on his own, without Xiu Ying''s maniption.


    As this thought had already appeared in his head, Eren wanted to make it so that this could never be a threat to his Disciple.


    The Phoenix turned in the sky, taking the opposite direction from Zhao Yanmei.


    Only after getting far from sight, the Phoenix came under the clouds.


    "I did not want to make my presence known, but I''ll let it be. I want them to know what happens when one touches a disciple of my sect!"


    The citizens of the city watched the surroundings turn brighter and warmer.


    They looked around in confusion. Why did it suddenly be so hot?


    It was only when they heard a powerful screech from the sky, they looked above and saw a burning creature flying towards them.


    The creature had mes around its wings and looked frightening and beautiful at the same time.


    The citizens of the city watched in awe and fear as the fiery creature descended from the sky.


    The intense heat emanating from its wings caused the air around them to shimmer.


    Eren and Xiu Ying stood on the back of the Phoenix, their eyes fixed on the city below.


    Eren''s voice echoed with authority as he addressed the startled crowd.


    "I am the Elder Ren from the Great Demon Sect. Someone here tried to kill a disciple of the Sect! I havee to eradicate the person responsible as well as the City!"


    "Those who have nothing to do with it, leave right now! This will be thest mercy I show!"


    "An Elder from the Great Demon Sect?!"


    The citizens of the city still remembered the stories they had heard.


    Thest time someone offended the Great Demon Sect, this city was destroyed. Was the newly created city going to be destroyed as well?


    None of them wanted to stay here if that was the case.


    Instead of ming Eren, they med the person who was responsible for it! If anything, they felt like Eren was too kind.


    Thest time an Elder was offended here, she did not just kill the culprit but everyone else as well. So many innocents had died that day.


    Compared to that, Eren was a saint.


    "Are youing out or should Ie in myself?"


    Erennded in front of the City Lord''s Mansion, helped by the Phoenix mes.


    Inside the mansion, the Crown Prince was shivering.


    He had heard the deration of Eren. He was nning to escape after hiding himself amongst the servants. But before he could do that, the person was already outside the Mansion?


    He did not expect an Elder of the Great Demon Sect to be here.


    The Crown Prince was scared. He felt like heart was going to jump out of his chest.


    ''Just why did I have to listen to the foolish son of my Master!''


    He red at his Junior Brother but he couldn''t do anything now. None of them expected an Elder to be here.


    "Go talk to him. I will try to contact my father. He wille here to save me! Just keep him busy!"


    "If Masteres, we might survive." The Crown Prince nodded.


    The Sect Master of the Asura Sect was strong. Even if he wasn''t as strong as the Great Demon Sect Master or the Great Elders, but he could definitely put up a fight against an ordinary Elder.


    As long as his master was here, he was certain that they were going to be fine.


    "I hope he is willing to listen."


    The Crown Prince was filled with fear, but he still put on a false facade as he stepped out of the room.


    He quickly left the mansion, finding Eren standing there.


    He could not see Eren''s face behind his mask, but he could see the Phoenix in the sky.


    Only a powerful person could have a beast like that in their control.


    "Elder Ren, I heard your deration. Could there be a misunderstanding? Only a fool would dare attack a disciple of your sect."


    "I agree with that." Eren nodded. "The one who tried was definitely a fool. And that fool needs to pay with his life."


    He stepped towards the Crown Prince.


    The Crown Prince stepped back subconsciously. "I-i will definitely help you investigate this matter. The Kingdom is with you."


    "As the Crown Prince, it is my promise to you that we will find the culprit!"


    "Oh, don''t worry. I already found that person."


    "E-Elder Ren, why do I feel like you are talking about me? I would never do something like that! I''m a disciple of the Asura Sect Master. I would never do something so low."


    He tried to im his innocence while also reminding Eren about his identity.


    He was not like his foolish brother. He wasn''t just the Crown Prince. He was also a Personal Disciple of the Asura Sect Master.


    Targeting him was no different than targeting the Sect Master of Asura Sect.


    "Even if you were a disciple of the Lord of Heaven, you would still die today for attempting to kill my disciple!"


    Eren reached out his hand, the Phoenix mes wrapping around his arm.


    Death momentarily shed before the Crown Prince''s eyes. He was standing in the same ce as his brother did when he died due to schemes.


    It was as if karma was striking him back. He closed his eyes, scared for his life.


    "How dare you try to touch my disciple?!"


    As Eren was about to touch the Crown Prince, the void split open in the sky.
