My Beautiful Disciples, I’m really not the Main Character!Chapter 136: Chapter 136: They are here!
….
The Asura Sect was one of the most prominent sects after the Great Demon Sect. Although it wasn’t comparable in strength to the Demon Sect, it still held significant influence in its region.
This was especially true since it was located on the opposite end of the Continent, farthest from the Great Demon Sect.
When Feng Yu ascended to the position of Sect Master and became the Overlord of the Eastern Continent, she personally eradicated all the sects in the province where her sect was based, establishing absolute dominance.
She even destroyed many prominent sects that were once said to possess strength comparable to the Great Demon Sect.
The sects in other provinces of the Eastern Continent thought that this was the end. Many were preparing to disband before the Demoness came for them.
Fortunately for them, Feng Yu stopped her onslaught. She allowed the other sects to exist. No one knew why she let the other sects exist.
Some thought that it was because she thought they were too insignificant and too far away to affect the workings of her sect. Others thought it was because of other reasons. But no one knew the truth.
Even though she didn’t eradicate the sects in other provinces, but still, from that moment onwards, the Demon Sect held absolute dominance in the Eastern Continent.
The other sects managed to survive. They believed this would always be the case, but none realized that their time was nearing its end as the Battle Ship of the Great Demon Sect was currently flying towards the Asura Sect.
The Asura Sect had grown quite strong throughout the years. It had even managed to surpass their strength in the past. That’s why, the Asura Sect Master thought that he could take the Demon Sect down if he worked with others.
Unfortunately, the Asura Sect wasn’t in a good situation now. The Asura Sect Master had suddenly died with his son. It was said that the person who did it was none other than a Great Demon Sect Elder.
Initially, many Great Elders of the Asura Sect were worried that the Great Demon Sect had discovered their plan. They fully expected to be attacked and activated the Sect Protection Formation in advance.
Unfortunately, nothing happened in the following weeks. Keeping the Sect Protection Formation running continuously also exhausted a lot of their resources instead.
In the end, they concluded that the Demon Sect was unaware of their plans. Their suspicions were confirmed when they heard from those who escaped the city where the Sect Master had died.
According to the survivors, the person who killed the Sect Master was Elder Ren from the Great Demon Sect. The reason for the killing was that the Sect Master’s son had attempted to harm a disciple of the Demon Sect.
“Our Sect Master died at the hands of a mere elder of that sect. Do we still think we can do anything to that sect?” one of the Great Elders asked during an important meeting regarding the future of the Sect.
It was also the meeting where the new Sect Leader was to be selected.
“I always knew this was a foolish plan. It’s impossible to bring down the Demon Sect. Instead, we would only harm ourselves by poking a poisonous snake’s den.”
“We should forget that we ever planned anything like this and start fresh. We should focus on our Sect and expand our influence in our own area.”
“There’s nothing embarrassing about accepting that we are inferior to the Demon Sect.”
“That is right. The Sect Master was too obsessed with his father’s death. It’s good that he died; otherwise, he might have dragged the entire sect down with him.” Ɯ∀∟ƎᎷⱣ¥Ʀ.ϲՕƜ
One after another, the Great Elders agreed with each other. It was also because they were scared.
When the Sect Master was alive, they couldn’t do anything about it since he was the strongest cultivator in the sect. Now, they had an opportunity to decide for their own survival.
Their loyalty was less towards the sect master and more towards themselves, hence they didn’t even think about revenge.
“We won’t leak this, but what about the other Sect Masters?” Suddenly, a Great Elder asked. They weren’t the only ones who knew about this plan after all.
The Sect Master had discussed this plan with the Sect Masters of the other sects as well.
“I am certain that the other Sect Masters won’t talk about it either. They are guilty of the same sin after all. So we shouldn’t worry about it.”
“Just to be safe, how about we assassinate the Sect Masters of the other Sects that were in contact with our Sect Master?”
“It’s not easy. It might instead backfire on us. Let’s not talk about it for now. We are here to select the next leader of our Sect.
To select the new Sect Master, I have thought of a method.”
“What method?”
“We-”
Thud~
The Great Elders were discussing the next master of the Asura Sect when the door opened with a thud.
A middle aged man rushed inside, his face void of any blood as if he had seen a ghost. He was truly frightened.
“Elder Wei, have you forgotten manners? How dare you enter without asking for permission?”
“G-Great Elder, it’s not the time for that! They are here! They are really here!” The middle aged man paused to catch his breath, his hands trembling with fear.
The Great Elders exchanged glances before turning their attention back to Elder Wei.
“What do you mean ‘they are here’? Who is here?” one of the Great Elders asked, trying to calm the agitated man.
Elder Wei took a deep breath and exclaimed, “The Great Demon Sect! Their Celestial Battleship has been seen only a few hundred miles away from our Sect! And their destination… It’s our Sect!”
“What?!” All the Great Elders stood up, their faces losing all color.
The sound of chairs falling filled the room.
