Chapter 262: Chapter 262: Master, when can I have you?
It was as if he was wearing really thick clothes and wrapping his arms around his chest.
"Do you have a cold?" she asked, trying to step closer.
"I am fine. Don\'t approach me," Eren told her, narrowing his eyes. He even covered his surroundings with the Sword Emperor\'s Aura to prevent anyone from getting close.
Even though Zia was trustworthy, he still couldn\'t let anyone else in on the secret.
"What did you come to inform me?" he asked while Zia came to a sudden halt, looking at him with confusion. She didn\'t understand why he was behaving like that.
At first, she thought that he wanted to be alone because he was sad about Feng Yu\'s death as the two were strangely close. But something felt out of place.
"Yu Lin has woken up. I thought you would want to know about it. She has succeeded," Zia told Eren, talking about his first disciple who had entered enlightenment while comprehending the skills given by him.
A few days had passed but she was finally awake. As Eren was busy with the task, he had momentarily forgotten about it.
Eren\'s face lit up. He had already expected her to succeed as it was impossible to fail enlightenment after entering it. It was only a matter of time. Still, he was happy that it worked.
He hadn\'t taught her many things, but whatever he taught her, she absorbed it well. He even felt a little proud of his disciple
At the same time, he also felt disappointed in himself. If his hands hadn\'t wrapped around Feng Yu\'s slender body, he would have facepalmed himself.
No matter how many times he thought about focusing on his disciples, one thing or another kept happening to him that prevented him from focusing entirely on them
He wanted to go to her right away, but he knew that if he left the palace, he was going to lose the protection of the formation.
The entire sect was covered in formations but they weren\'t as strong as they were in this place. Moreover, with the Ancestral Elders being offended, it was dangerous for anyone to be close to him.
Despite that, he had already planned to leave and bring his disciple here. Now that he was a sect master, he was going to stay with his disciple, giving as much time as possible to her.
"I will bring her here later. You can tell her to pack her things," he told Zia. "I will arrange a room for her here."
"This place? But a disciple isn\'t allowed to stay in the Core Region according to the rules. It still applies, even if it\'s the sect master\'s disciple," Zia informed Eren, realizing that he might not have known about all the rules yet.
He had just taken the position and it probably wasn\'t a good idea to break the rules and give an opportunity to those who opposed him.
"I will take care of the rules. You can leave for now," Eren didn\'t pay much attention to her concern.
For Yu Lin\'s safety, he had to bring her here. This was the safest place for her. Now that he had offended the Ancestral Elders, he was sure that they were going to go after his people.
The only person that the Sect knew to be close to him was Yu Lin. They didn\'t know about his other two disciples or his relationship with Xiu Ying. Moreover, Xiu Ying wasn\'t here in the first place so it was fine.
For now, his priority was saving Yu Lin. Breaking the rules didn\'t matter as he was the sect master. Moreover, he could bring her here secretly without having anyone know.
As for giving others an opportunity, it didn\'t matter. He was sure that today nothing was going to happen, but tomorrow or the day after that, the sect was going to encounter a great storm, for which he had to prepare.
Zia rubbed her forehead. "Fine. I\'ll tell her."
She turned around and prepared to leave, letting Eren sigh in relief. His hands that had wrapped firmly around Feng Yu started loosening.
As Zia was about to leave the hall, she suddenly stopped and turned around. Eren had a bad feeling about this. Before he could say anything, Zia spoke.
"Master, when can I have you for myself?"
Hearing her words, Eren\'s jaws almost dropped. He could feel Feng Yu glaring up at him, her words truly sounding misleading.
\'Master? All for herself? Just what kind of perverted acts are they playing with each other? He already has Xiu Ying and still he has the gall to have roleplay with other women?\' Feng Yu thought..
Eren could feel her punching his waist. He could already imagine what Feng Yu was thinking about it.
There was no way Feng Yu was going to think that Zia was actually Eren\'s disciples. Hence, her thoughts only went in the entire opposite direction.
"Leave," Eren said, trying to control his voice even as he was being pinched sharply.
Zia didn\'t question him any further. She was just curious when he was going to teach her alchemy, but it looked like he wasn\'t in the mood yet.
She didn\'t keep her thoughts to herself and said it out loud.
"Looks like Master isn\'t in the mood for it," she sighed as she turned and left, closing the door behind her.
By now, Eren didn\'t even know how he could recover from her words. He wasn\'t in the mood? Couldn\'t that woman be more clear? Or better yet, couldn\'t she leave silently?
As soon as the door closed, Feng Yu pushed Eren back.
"It seems like \'Master\' truly isn\'t in the mood," she sarcastically said while glaring at Eren, who could only scratch the back of his head.
