My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!

Chapter 117: Chapter 117: Uninvited Guest

Feng Yu was sitting in her room, looking at a portrait.

The portrait depicted a middle aged man sitting on a chair. Next to him, there was a beautiful woman. And in the woman's lap, there was a little girl who didn't look any older than ten years of age.

The portrait looked like a true family picture, even though it was drawn by an artist. For quite some time, she gazed at the portrait.

It was only after she heard a knock on the door, she shifted her attention. She kept the portrait in her storage ring.

"You can come in."

As soon as she finished speaking, a person appeared in her room out of thin air.

"Did you find what I asked?" Feng Yu asked.

"I believe it was in the coastal city of the Southern Continent," a woman's voice came in response.

"Did you find his trace then?" Feng Yu questioned the hooded figure.

"If only..." The hooded figure briefly paused before explaining further. "The Coastal City has been destroyed. With the destruction, all the traces are gone."

"Was it Mist?"

"It wasn't her. The Sea Dragons have been very chaotic recently. They attacked the Coastal City and tried to kill their way into the continent. The entire city was destroyed along with a few more."

"Did they lose their mind? Why would they try something like that?"

"Unfortunately, I haven't been able to gather more information because of that. But something big must have happened."

"It was only when Mist made an appearance that the invasion appeared to have stopped and the Sea Dragons retreated."

"Hmm? She got involved personally? What about Astral and his other subordinates? Did she need to get involved personally?"

"Astral died around the same time that aura was felt across the Continents. I believe she came to check herself, only to come across the Sea Dragons."

"I see."

Feng Yu stood up and walked over to the window, looking at the beautiful night sky.

"I thought Mist was involved with him. But it seems that he targeted her first. After hiding for so long, is he finally trying to come to light again?"

The beautiful moon in the sky was hidden behind the dark clouds, making it impossible for her to see it.

....

....

"Just what kind of messed up life did this guy live?" Eren rubbed his temple, trying to make sense of the situation.

He looked at his reflection in the window glass. This was the face he always believed belonged to him. However, only now did he realize that it didn't belong to him.

He used the Ring of Merger, given to him by Devourer. The ring started shining, and his looks again started transforming, returning to his real face.

His hair turned darker, and his face also became slender. His physique did not change much, but he looked like an entirely different person.

He touched his cheeks. This was the real Ren. There were no more illusions that even fooled him.

"It seems I can only use two looks with this ring. One is the original, and the other is the fake that everyone already knows me as."

He looked a little disappointed after testing the ring. He had thought that he might be able to change into more looks. But there was only one look that he could use.

He could either look like the 'Elder Ren', or reveal his true self which was an even bigger enemy to the people.

Considering his safety, he ultimately decided to revert to his disguised appearance, as it provided him with the greatest level of security.

Moreover, he didn't hold any particular preference towards either appearance, as neither truly reflected his true self. After all, he wasn't an existence from this world.

He turned back towards his room and started cleaning all the traces of blood that were on the floor.

Only after cleaning up, he told Celeste that she could stop guarding now. It didn't matter who came now as he left no evidence behind.

"I will take a shower and then we will go and check up on my disciple. It has been a long time since I met her. I haven't taught her a single thing. I wonder if she is already considering me a scammer."

He entered the shower and started cleaning his body. There were a lot of questions in his mind, but for now, he buried them in the back of his head.

He only had two priorities for now. The first was to retrieve his system by completing the option he had selected. Even if it was an impossible choice, he had to make the Great Elder his disciple.

As for his second priority, it was to be a good teacher. He could not give up control of his identity and his life. If possible, he wanted to properly teach a disciple.

He needed to create his own force. He couldn't always be in the sect after all.

Only after retrieving his system could he even think about the Hero Academy and the thing he had to retrieve.

"If only the Great Elder was naive like my second disciple, I might have been able to fool her into becoming my disciple."

"I can't force her. I can't bluff her either. That leaves only one option. Although she is a character that I know the least, but with her characteristics, this plan might just work."

After cleaning the blood off his body, he stepped out of the water. Drops of water trickled down his skin, falling on the floor.

After drying himself, he dressed in a new and cleaner attire before stepping into the main room.

"With how fast I've been destroying my clothes, this is my last pair of clothes. When I'm free, I should buy myself more."

He rubbed his long hair with a towel while stepping out of the bathroom, only to notice that Celeste was flying right in front of her face, waving her hand hysterically, trying to tell him something.

With a frown on his face, Eren looked past Celeste and noticed another woman sitting there on his bed.

His face went blank at the sight of the woman who had managed to get past the barrier enacted by Xiu Ying. She was sitting right in his room.

This person was none other than the Master of this Sect, and the Overlord of the Eastern Continent Feng Yu.

"Did you have fun killing them?" Feng Yu asked.
