My Beautiful Disciples, I’m really not the Main Character!Chapter 52: Chapter 52: The Celebration
“I think we should rest in the next city.”
Xiu Ying peeked at Eren’s map. Although she knew all the maps of this continent, this map looked more elaborate.
It didn’t just contain the map of the Eastern Continent, but it showed all four continents, including the Sea around them.
She didn’t know where one could find such an elaborate map. But she didn’t ask.
“I was thinking the same thing.”
Eren agreed with Xiu Ying. For the last three days, they had been flying without a break. They had been sleeping on the back of the Phoenix.
Xiu Ying was strong, so she didn’t feel anything about it. But Eren could feel his back hurting.
He wanted to sleep on a proper bed.
He had never thought he was going to miss the small house at the edge of the cliff in the sect, but even that appeared heavenly to him now.
“Let me see, the next city…”
“It should be Qiling.”
Hearing the name, Eren was slightly surprised. Even he had heard the name of the city.
It was the capital of one of the many kingdoms in the Eastern Continent. But that wasn’t why it was famous.
Instead, it was famous because of Elder Zhang Wei from the Great Demon Sect.
It was one of the cities that had offended Zhang Wei. And in return, she had killed every living being in this city, including all the Nobles of the Kingdom.
Even the Crown Prince of the Kingdom was killed in that incident.
Even after all that, the Kingdom didn’t retaliate. Or rather, they couldn’t retaliate unless they wanted to be wiped out completely by Zhang Wei.
That was an incident which was mentioned in the novel when talking about Zhang Wei.
There was also another small thing mentioned along with the incident. It was that this was all the scheme of the Second Prince.
The Second Prince wanted the Crown Prince out of his way, hence he sent his people to offend Zhang Wei when she was in the city.
At that time, the Crown Prince was also in the city.
When Zhang Wei destroyed the entire city in anger, the Crown Prince also died. After that, the Second Prince became the crown prince, achieving his goals.
Even now, Zhang Wei didn’t know that she was used as a pawn by the Second Prince.
Eren could only imagine what she was going to do when she found out about it. One thing was certain. The day she found out, this Kingdom was going to stop existing.
‘Looks like they rebuilt the city, but it wasn’t mentioned in the novel.’
Eren closed the map, making up his mind about resting the night in the city.
“You should wear this mask if we’re going to stay in the city.”
Eren gave a full face mask to Xiu Ying,
“I can use the veil.” Xiu Ying took the mask, but she didn’t understand why she had to wear the mask.
With the veil alone, she could control her charm from affecting other people’s minds. ϺѴᒪƎƜƤႸᏒ.СОМ
“With the veil, you can prevent your charm spell. But even with that, you look so beautiful, how can one not fall for you?”
“You…”
Xiu Ying lowered her head, not knowing how to respond. She felt extremely happy when Eren complimented her.
Eren didn’t tell her that he had another reason. They had run away secretly. He couldn’t let anyone recognise them.
Even with the Veil, the Great Elder was easy to recognise due to her identity. And even if she wasn’t recognised, if someone offended her, things could get troublesome.
It was better to keep her identity hidden than to flaunt it and attract trouble.
Unlike the Great Elder, Eren wasn’t famous outside the sect. Not many people had seen what he looked like.
Even if they recognised him, so what? He had officially left the sect to gather some ingredients. He didn’t run away.
….
“Make sure there are no problems! The Crown Prince will be coming here today!”
“I will kill you myself if there are any problems!”
All the guards in the city of Qiling were extra vigilant. Even the City Lord was extra strict, not wanting anything to go wrong.
The Crown Prince was coming to the city of Qilin. The last time a crown prince came, the entire city was destroyed because someone offended people they shouldn’t.
This time, the City Lord didn’t want anything to go wrong. The security around the city was strengthened.
Every new person entering the city was checked thoroughly and most of them were sent back, not allowed entry.
The sales of alcohol were also banned for the next two days.
The City Lord even ordered a city-wide clean-up to ensure everything was in pristine condition for the Crown Prince’s visit.
“Your Highness, may I ask why we are going to the city of Qiling just to celebrate your birthday? There are so many better cities in the Kingdom.”
“Haha, that place is important to me. That’s the place which allowed me to become the crown prince.”
“What better place than Qiling where my dear brother died, to celebrate my birthday.”
The Crown Prince was in a good mood as he looked at the scenery outside, taking a sip from the glass of wine.
“Did you receive the response to the invitations we have sent?”
“Who would dare deny an invitation from the Crown Prince who is a Personal Disciple of the Asura Sect Master.”
“Amongst all the sects under the Great Demon Sect, the Asura Sect is the strongest. So most of the people accepted the invitation right away.”
“The Head Disciples from all ten sects will be here.”
“Anyone from the Great Demon Sect?”
“This… I’m afraid those people are too arrogant. Even for the Personal Disciple of Asura Sect Master, they didn’t accept the invitation.”
“I suppose that’s to be expected. Even an Inner Disciple of the Great Demon Sect holds more importance than the Head Disciples of the ten major sects under the Great Demon Sect.”
The Crown Prince didn’t show it, but he felt quite frustrated that he was looked down on.
