Chapter 194: Chapter 194: I love him
....
"Do you have something to say to me?"
Sect Master Fang Yu was sitting on the higher throne, her head tilted to the side as she observed Xiu Ying with eyes that were filled with coldness like always.
"I have a lot of things to say to you. It depends on your desire to listen," Xiu Ying lazily said as she flew closer to Feng Yu, leaving only a short distance between them.
She walked behind Feng Yu and wrapped her arms around the sect master.
If it was someone else, they would have thought twice before touching the Sect Master. However, Xiu Ying was quite close to the Sect Master.
Although Feng Yu had sometimes threatened to kill Xiu Ying when she ignored her instructions, she never actually hurt her. The most she did was force her to stay at home for a few months.
The Sect Master didn't have many friends, especially because of her personality. Although she didn't show it, Xiu Ying knew Feng Yu the longest.
She always treated Feng Yu like a friend, at least when they were alone. Still, she also knew Feng Yu's personality and tried to be careful around her, always knowing her red line and remembering to never cross it.
"You seem to be in a good mood," Feng Yu said, removing Xiu Ying's arms from her shoulder. "Did you find the author of those annoying books that you love so much?"
"Even better..." Xiu Ying smiled. Although she was somewhat irritated because of the appearance of Zhang Wei, she was still happy every time she thought about Eren.
"Does this have something to do with your secret trip with Ren?" Feng Yu asked, already guessing a few things.
Just like Xiu Ying knew her the longest, she also knew the Great Elder well enough. She was also the only person in the sect who knew the past of Xiu Ying, as well as her link with the spirits.
Feng Yu's father was the previous sect master of the Great Demon Sect. It was her father who found Xiu Ying left in a destroyed city blaming herself.
He brought the little girl to the Sect, and allowed her to become a member of the sect after realizing that she had quite a talent for cultivation.
That's also when Feng Yu met Xiu Ying. Both of them had known each other since childhood.
It wasn't wrong to say that Xiu Ying was one of the few people in the sect who remembered what Feng Yu used to be like before losing her emotions or before becoming an Overlord.
"That is right." Xiu Ying smiled brightly. "I am in love with him."
Her smile was hidden behind the veil that she often wore, but even the veil also couldn't hide her charm when she smiled.
She didn't hide the fact that she loved Eren. Although she didn't tell her how it happened.
Feng Yu grew silent.
She hadn't thought that someone like Xiu Ying would actually fall in love with someone. Because of her looks and charming physique, it was often the men falling for her.
"What about him?" she asked after quite some time.
"Of course he loves me too. Why won't he?!" Xiu Ying asked, but for a moment, her eyes revealed a strange obsession that went unnoticed.
"And it has nothing to do with your charm?" Feng Yu asked.
This was the most complicated thing with Xiu Ying. It was hard for her to find a person who truly loved her, and wasn't just affected by her charm.
"He is unaffected by my charm," Xiu Ying answered.
"He is?" Feng Yu revealed a slight surprise.
This was also one of the reasons she went to see Eren the moment he had returned. She wanted to see if he was affected by Xiu Ying's charm because he was away for so long with her.
She made it seem like she simply went there to assign him another mission, but she simply could have assigned this mission to anyone. She just used that as an excuse to test Eren.
When she met Eren, she was able to see that he had clear eyes and his mind also appeared to be unaffected.
She had seen many people who were affected by Xiu Ying's charm, but Eren didn't look like them.
That's when she thought that it might be because Xiu Ying was careful and followed her advice to never reveal her veil in presence of another men.
"That's right. He saw me without Veil. But he was unaffected. Don't you think that it means we are made for each other?" Xiu Ying smiled as she talked about her lover with Feng Yu.
She didn't break her promise with Eren either, and didn't tell her anything about them entering the Southern Continent or fighting the Sea Dragons.
She also didn't tell her about Eren being a spy as she believed him when he said that he didn't mean any harm to the Great Demon Sect.
If anything, he killed people from the Academy for her! Why would she even doubt him? Between the Academy and the Sect, he had proven his loyalty when he killed Aster.
"I see. In that case, I won't intervene in your matters." Feng Yu kept her words short and didn't pry much into Xiu Ying's matters.
There were also a few things about Eren that she didn't tell Xiu Ying after all.
"Anyways, I called you here to tell you something." She changed the topic, and stopped talking about Eren.
Xiu Ying pouted, as if she was upset. She wanted to talk more about Eren and tell Feng Yu how amazing he was.
"The person who killed my father... I believe 'he' has returned," Feng Yu said.
Xiu Ying who had been in a playful mood until now turned absolutely serious.
"The person who killed Uncle?" Heavy killing intent flashed in her eyes.
Feng Yu's father had saved her. He had also treated her like a family. He was the reason she was even alive, otherwise she might have long killed herself over the guild of her family's death being due to her wish.
She was as hurt as Feng Yu when she had heard that he was killed. Unfortunately, no matter how hard they tried, they failed to find that person.
After all this time, that person was back?
