My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!

Chapter 63: Stronger Villain

"It's been so long. At this rate, she will soon reach the next City. Are they coming or not?"

Eren had been following his potential disciple for a long time, waiting for her to be attacked so he could become her knight in shining Armor.

"They are coming."

Xiu Ying suddenly stated, sending multiple cultivators flying towards their direction.

Eren was about to curse the Crown Prince for not taking it seriously, but when he heard Xiu Ying, he almost bit his tongue.

A powerful cultivator could sense people coming from faraway. He was just complaining about them while Xiu Ying had already noticed them.

He sneakily looked at Xiu Ying, wondering if she was suspicious about her true strength. He had basically given her a hint that he wasn't actually as strong as an Elder was supposed to be.

Fortunately, she didn't seem to notice.

....

"There she is!"

The City Lord was flying, followed by the Guards from the city.

Every Guard he brought with him was his personal guard, but only a few people knew that they actually worked for the Crown Prince.

No matter how fast a horse was, it couldn't move faster than a powerful cultivator.

Before long, the City Lord reached the girl, who was slightly surprised to find him there.

"What are you doing here?"

She stopped the horse, seeing the City Lord block her path. She could notice that she was slowly being surrounded by the Guards that came with him.

There were six realms of cultivation in the Eastern Continent that people knew about. The weakest was the Body Refining Realm. Then came the Spirit Refining Realm, Soul Refining Realm, Core Refining Realm, Earth Refining Realm and lastly the Heaven Refining Realm.

There were only four people that had reached the Heaven Refining Realm. They were the four overlords.

She was still only in the Spirit Refining Realm, but the Guards that came with the City Lord were all in the Soul Refining Realm. Meanwhile, the City Lord was already touching the threshold of the Core Refining Realm.

Only people in the Soul Refining Realm could fly. She still hadn't reached that realm.

She could fight people who were stronger than her. But there were just too many people and they were all strong.

"I assume you are here to target me? Have you thought of the consequences?"

She got down from the horse, talking directly to the City Lord.

"You attacked someone who you shouldn't have," the City Lord sternly stated. "I brought you as a guest, but you did something like that. You can only blame yourself for acting too arrogant!"

....

"Are you going to help her now?"

High in the sky, Xiu Ying and Eren were looking at the scene taking place on the ground.

Xiu Ying was wondering when Eren was going down to help her.

"If I go now, it won't be that effective. Moreover, I also want her to know that being weak doesn't mean one should be insulted. Because for someone, she would also be weak."

"I will think of this as a lesson for her. A Master won't interfere when a disciple is trying to learn a lesson."

Eren sat patiently, looking forward to the battle. He also wanted to see just how strong this disciple of his actually was.

She was faced with people much stronger than her. He was curious to see if she could actually take some of them down.

The City Lord commanded his guards to take down the woman. He personally didn't want to join the battle if he didn't need to as he still played cautiously.

Over twenty guards, all having a higher cultivation than the woman attacked her together, not giving her any chance.

The girl drew her sword, fighting back.

"Urgh, are all the Inner Disciples in the Sect this strong?"

High in the sky, Eren frowned.

Not only was the girl not being pushed back, but she was also able to take down the guards one after another.

It didn't look like she was fighting people stronger than her. Instead, it was as if she was fighting on a level playing field.

Even when facing so many guards, she was still holding her ground. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Eren watched the skills being used by the woman that he had only read about in books.

This was the first time he had seen someone use battle skills like this. Even in the selection trials, people had used some skills but they were the most basic ones.

The woman used proper sword skills, each sword leaving a deep mark on her surroundings.

"Won't she just win at this rate?"

Eren looked at Xiu Ying.

He had made such preparation to teach that girl a lesson and make her worship him as her master. But he was starting to worry if the girl even needed him in the first place.

She was much stronger than the participants in the sect selection trials. Although she still couldn't defeat his Phoenix, he wasn't certain if even he could defeat her.

He didn't have any pendant for speed. All he had was defense and strength. Strength could block a fist, but it couldn't block a sword. And his shield also had limited use.

As per skills, she was definitely talented enough. She deserved that arrogance.

"If she is so talented, why isn't she an Elder's Disciple?"

"She seems very average. I expected more from her."

"That's average?"

Eren looked surprised by the words she used. If this girl was considered average amongst the Sect Disciples, then how strong were the other Inner Disciples?

How strong were the Core Disciples? He thought Elders were strong enough to walk this continent freely, but he  believed he had underestimated the Sect.

Not just the Elders, more even a Core Disciple was enough to bring a Kingdom to ruins.

"I can't wait any longer. If she wins, I won't have anything to do. I need a stronger villain."

He gave another mask to Xiu Ying.

"You will be the Villain. You need to put up a play with me."
