Chapter 65: She is my daughter! What else?
The young girl looked at Eren's back and frowned.
She felt like she found that person a bit familiar. This back... It was similar to one she saw when she was leaving the hotel.
'It can't be. That man was too weak. It's impossible for him to fly and get here so fast.'
She didn't want to believe that the person in front of her was the same person that she had looked down on.
Fortunately, his hair color was different, which further convinced her that he wasn't the same person.
"I don't know who you are, but since you like to interfere in other people's matters, how about you stay here forever?"
Xiu Ying played her role well. Or rather, she played her role to perfection... A bit too much.
Before Eren could react, he saw Xiu Ying wave her hand lightly. It was only a weak attack for Xiu Ying. But for Eren, it was something that could kill him.
'Did she get too much in her character? She's actually attacking?!'
Eren's back was covered in cold sweat. Fortunately, her attack missed him by a hair's breadth.
'This woman... She is definitely putting up an act. But a little mistake, and my Bracelet of Protection would have activated! It would have been such a waste!'
Even the girl behind Eren was shocked. The attack looked effortless, but it was so destructive that a ten feet deep ravine was created in the ground that stretched for over a mile.
This mysterious woman possessed powers that were beyond comprehension.
That single attack of hers was strong enough to destroy a city. But she doesn't understand. How could someone as strong as her miss? Something didn't seem right.
"H-how did you change the trajectory of my attack?" Xiu Ying exclaimed in shock. "It should be impossible!"
Eren's expressions were worth seeing as he looked at Xiu Ying put up an act to make him look strong. Fortunately, the girl behind him couldn't see his face.
The young girl had her face lit up, as if she had a revelation.
'So he's the reason she missed? To think that he was able to deflect such a powerful attack? Just how strong is he?'
She didn't know how she came across such strong people. Just that woman alone was too strong for her, but this man was even more incomprehensible.
Was it her luck that the man just happened to be here to save her? She had the worst luck all her life, but this time she felt that her luck was too good. She might actually survive.
Cough~
"You are too weak." Eren folded his arms around his chest, a small smirk playing on his lips. "But don't worry, with a little training, you can become stronger too."
"You can kill me, but you can't embarrass me!" Xiu Ying raged as her figure disappeared.
The young girl couldn't even see her figure. But by the time Xiu Ying came into her view, it was too late.
She saw Xiu Ying appear right behind Eren. She attacked Eren, as if wanting to rip a hole in his back to claw his heart out.
Eren was too slow. He was still confused. Where did Xiu Ying disappear to?
"Argh!"
It was only when he heard a pained groan behind him that he turned around, nothing Xiu Ying flying back, coughing blood.
Eren's lips twitched, but he tried his hardest to control his reaction. It had truly turned into a one woman show.
He knew that hadn't actually attacked him. If she did, his Pendant of Protection would have activated. So this was all an act.
He knew the truth, but the young girl had been fooled.
She saw Xiu Ying attack the mysterious man, but before she could touch him, she was sent flying.
She didn't know if even an Elder in her sect could survive such a fast attack. But this mysterious man hurt her without even moving? Did that mean he was stronger than an Elder in her sect?
Was this the true peak of strength that she had been craving for? What was strength? Was it the ability to beat others up? No. It was when you were so strong that every enemy appeared like an ant before you.
This was exactly what she saw. She didn't even see what skill he used. It looked like he didn't do anything at all, but that was what was truly extraordinary about him.
She wanted to learn. She wanted to become as strong as this man.
She couldn't see that man's face, but she could see his deep eyes behind that mask, which were still truly calm.
Xiu Ying stood up, wiping the blood off her lips.
"How are you so strong? Even a Great Elder of the Great Demon Sect shouldn't be this strong! Only the Sect Master of that Sect should be this strong! What is your identity?"
In the girl's eyes, Eren was still perfectly calm. But only he knew how hard it was for him to keep his expressions under control as he heard Xiu Ying utter such nonsense.
Even he was feeling slightly embarrassed at this point, but he couldn't give up now.
He could only sell all his shame in the black market to not break character.
"Sect Master of Great Demon Sect? Are you talking about that little brat Feng Yu?"
He could only imagine how the Sect Master was going to react if she ever heard his words. But who was going to tell her? In her absence, he could use her name any way he wanted!
"Little brat? What is your relationship with her?!" Xiu Ying played along.
"She is my daughter. What else? Who do you think taught her everything she knows?"
He kept talking nonsense and created a backstory for the mysterious expert that he was playing.
"Don't tell me you really thought that she is the strongest in the Eastern Continent just because you kids love these titles and us old people don't show up.
