Chapter 41: Destined to be the greatest
As Eren had managed to deflect Xiu Ying's charm last time, he wasn't affected by it anymore. But still, even without the charm, the woman was enough to make him feel certain emotions.
"I came here to ask for your help," Eren said as he lightly tried to push the woman away as he didn't want to lose himself at this place.
Unfortunately, he wasn't strong enough to push her away. Although the woman looked weak and relied on charm, it didn't mean that she was weak.
Even without her uncontrollable charm, she was still strong enough to create a path of blood in her wake.
"Even if you want my life, I am willing," Xiu Ying said with a determined voice.
"I don't want your life. I just want you to accompany me as I will be leaving the Sect for a few days."
After unsuccessfully trying to create some distance, Eren finally gave up and let her stay in his embrace.
Hearing his words, Xiu Ying's eyes lit up. In her eyes, didn't this mean he was asking her to come on a date with him?
"Just the two of us?" she asked, trying hard to control her happiness.
"There's no one else I can ask," Eren replied. "It's really important for me. And it can't be no one else but you."
Xiu Ying's heart skipped a beat thanks to Eren's words. The love in her heart flared even more as she wondered if he was going to ask her to marry him on this trip.
At this moment, she didn't care if she was under house arrest. For her, accompanying him was more important than anything else.
"When are we leaving?" she asked.
"If you will be kind enough to release me, then right now." Eren placed his hand on Xiu Ying's shoulder, trying to push her away.
This time, she didn't offer any resistance and listened to him like a good girl.
"I will start preparing right away!"
....
Only ten minutes had passed before Xiu Ying returned. She had gathered everything in her storage ring that she believed they might need on a long trip.
She also thought of a way to leave the Sect without getting detected.
She also created a clone of her which was going to stay inside the room in the house arrest. It was to make sure that no one in the sect could know that she was missing.
"This is?" Eren held a small blue crystal in his hand that Xiu Ying had given him, wondering what this was.
"This is something that will take us out of the Sect, without getting detected." Xiu Ying smiled as she placed her hand in Eren's hand.
Eren was surprised at her words. He was wondering how he was going to leave the Core Region without getting detected, but it looked like there was no need for it.
It made her feel slightly awkward. The option asked him to help her escape. But wasn't it more like her helping him escape?
In the first place, did she even need help? She could have left anytime she wanted. The only reason she stayed behind was because she wanted to.
It was clear that Xiu Ying was more capable than he thought. If it was her, Eren was certain that they could kill the dragon. With her help, he could actually use the Memory Fragment.
She activated the crystal.
Both of them found themselves enveloped in a veil of undetectable spatial energy within the confines of the courtyard.
Eren sensed an abrupt shift in their surroundings, as the familiar sights and sounds of the Sect gradually faded away, replaced by an entirely different scenery.
Although they were no longer within the sect, they had not ventured too far from its vicinity.
In the distance, atop a mountain that appeared nearly insurmountable to an ordinary person, the Sect still remained visible.
It was said that this mountain range was the tallest in the entire world.
The ease with which they had departed from the Sect left Eren feeling somewhat surreal. However, he could still sense the presence of the Phoenix, albeit in the far distance.
With a command, he beckoned the Phoenix to leave the sect and join him.
Meanwhile, within the Mountain Range of the sect, the Phoenix took to the sky, soaring gracefully amongst the clouds.
It flew at a speed that even Eren had not previously experienced.
Typically, the Phoenix would regulate her speed while carrying Eren, ensuring his safety above all else. However, when it came to reuniting with her master, she unleashed her full speed without reservation.
In no time, the Phoenix arrived at the remote location where Eren eagerly awaited her.
Extending his hand towards the Great Elder, Eren invited her to join him.
With a beautiful smile adorning her face, the Great Elder accepted his gesture, and both of them landed on the Phoenix's back, marking the commencement of their extraordinary journey together.
....
"Junior Brother, this is a dangerous mission. Are you sure you want to take it? Even many seniors haven't managed to complete this mission!"
Back in the sect, the Main Character Ye Liang had finished taking the mission.
The moment the fellow Disciples under his master came to know of the mission he selected, they grew slightly worried.
As they had the same master, they were like brothers. They didn't want to lose the youngest and become a laughingstock in the sect.
"I believe I can complete it." Ye Liang smiled innocently.
Contrary to his outward smile, deep inside his heart, he was quite serious.
'With the help of my System, I'm destined to be the greatest in this world. How can you compare me with the standards of others?'
'So what if they failed? I will succeed! And I will get the reward from the system! No one can stand in my path!'
'I will become stronger by completing the normal missions. And when I'm strong enough, I'll finish the Main Scenario and kill Elder Ren!'
He folded the mission paper and kept it in his pocket and he departed as well.
