My Beautiful Disciples, I’m really not the Main Character!Chapter 110: Chapter 110: Manners
“You appear to know that ‘witch’ a lot,” the little girl replied, placing special emphasis on one particular word.
“If only. She was only rarely mentioned.”
Eren scratched the back of his head. Great Elder Zia was a character of importance, but still she was rarely mentioned in the novel.
She was so rare that her looks weren’t even described in the novel, as if the author did not care about her at all. Only her name was mentioned a few times.
“Rarely mentioned?” The girl frowned, as if trying to remember something. However, no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t seem to get an answer.
“Who even are you?” she asked.
“Little girl, did you forget what I said? Now isn’t the time for you to talk. Go down the mountain and approach the Alchemy Hall if you need something. That witch won’t help you even if you begged her.”
Eren kept looking back and forth between the girl and the courtyard. She had come here to take help from the Great Elder, but he also didn’t want the little girl to get in trouble, especially since it could affect him.
Great Elder Zia was a moody person. If her mood was soiled because of this little girl, she could reject him as well. Hence, he had to send this girl away.
“If the Alchemy Hall gives you trouble, tell them that Elder Ren sent you. They should help you as much as they can.”
“Elder Ren, huh.” The girl observed Eren from top to bottom. “I seem to have heard about you. The newest addition to the sect that Feng Yu brought with her.”
“Cough, what did you say?”
Hearing the girl, Eren couldn’t help but cough as he swallowed his previous words. The little girl was calling the Sect Master by her name? Was this girl a little slow?
As a disciple, not only was she in a place where she was not supposed to be, but she was also talking about the Sect Master like that? Did she not realize what danger she was in?
He opened his mouth to tell the girl to be careful with his words. However, before he could utter a single word, he heard the sound of the door opening.
Reacting quickly, he hid the girl behind him. He wasn’t sure if Great Elder Zia had come out. Fortunately, the girl’s small figure was hidden behind him.
“It’s you,” he sighed in relief at the sight of Xiu Ying. Fortunately, the owner of this house hadn’t stepped out.
“Did she agree to help me?” he asked.
Xiu Ying shook her head. “She is not home. We can either wait or try to find her in the Alchemy Hall. I really hope she hasn’t gone out of the sect.”
“Out of the sect?”
Eren had thought that he could get help for his Phoenix. But if the woman was out of the Sect, it was quite bad. Did he have no other choice but to wait if he couldn’t find her in the sect?
“We will try the Alchemy Hall then,” Eren nodded, trying to be optimistic.
“Little girl, since we are going to the Alchemy Sect, do you want to come with us as well?” he turned around to address the little girl.

“Who are you talking to?” Xiu Ying asked, still unable to see the person behind Eren.
“Ah, you probably don’t know her. It’s a disciple, who shouldn’t be here in the first place.” Eren looked back at Xiu Ying as he stepped aside.
Eren still did not realize that he was misunderstanding something. In the novel he read, Great Elder Zia wasn’t mentioned much, but one thing was clearly mentioned about her.
It was said that every so often, disciples and even some Elders approached her courtyard, hoping to plead for her help. In mine of the cases did they get help.
The disciples who tried it were either banned from the Alchemy Hall, or demoted. As for the Elders, they were punished by the Alchemy Hall in the form of reduced access to pills.
Eren had remembered that part of the novel and thought it was a similar situation. He as an Elder was here, unauthorized. And this girl, as a disciple was also here, turning that part of the novel into reality.
“This…”
As soon as Eren stepped aside, Xiu Ying was left stunned. She opened her lips to explain, but a voice appeared in her head that only she could hear.
“If you tell him anything, he won’t get my help.”
“Why didn’t you tell him your real identity?” Xiu Ying used a mental transmission to ask the girl in return.
She did not want to hide anything from Eren, as it felt like she was fooling him. But he needed her help. For his own benefit, she could only listen to the girl as even she could not force her to do things.
Both of them had the same position as the Great Elder, and none of them could force the other.
She did not understand why this girl was hiding her identity from Eren.
Although she looked like a little girl, she was actually even older than Xiu Ying. She was the person that Eren was looking for. She was the greatest Alchemist in the sect, as well as a beastmaster.
She was also a member of the Intercontinental Alchemist Organization, and her position was not lower either.
If one looked from the point of importance, Zia was more important than Xiu Ying.
“Should I ask you why you brought someone to my house without my permission? Also, if I’m not wrong, weren’t you supposed to be under house arrest because of him?”
“This has nothing to do with you. I came to you for help, and if you help me, I will give you what you have been after for a long time.”
Xiu Ying and Zia kept talking amongst each other through their thoughts.
“Spirit herb? I don’t need it anymore. I already found it,” Zia replied in her thoughts. However, as soon as she finished, she felt someone’s hand on her head.
“Where are your manners? Pay respect to a Great Elder.”
Before she could even react, Eren pushed her head down, making her lower her head to Xiu Ying.
Xiu Ying’s jaws almost dropped.
