Even though the room was dark, Eren was able to see her movements. The only thing he couldn\'t see was what she had hidden.

He wondered what she was hiding. Through a mental transmission, he told Yelen to check what the little girl was hiding from him. He didn\'t want to do it himself and appear like a suspicious master.

"How was your sleep?" Eren asked, not questioning her about the thing she had hidden.

"It was good. But Master, isn\'t this the Sect Master\'s Palace? Are we really allowed to be here?" Yu Lin asked, looking at Eren in confusion.

Although she was new to the sect, she knew quite a few things that ordinary disciples weren\'t supposed to know.

At first, she didn\'t know where she had appeared, but after seeing the purity of Qi in this place and the materials with which this entire place was made, she could only come to one conclusion:

This was the Sect Master\'s Palace. Let alone her, even her master as an Elder shouldn\'t have been allowed to stay here.

She really wondered why her master took such a great risk to bring her here. She had heard about the Sect Master\'s disappearance but not her death. Had something happened outside? She wondered.

"I\'m the Sect Master. Where else will I stay?" Eren asked, flashing his ring proudly.

He did not make up any stories about how the Sect Master was dead, as it was a lie that was soon going to be exposed.

He was also temporarily in this position from what it appeared. There was no point in lying about it, but he didn\'t tell her the truth either.

He was vague, only saying that due to certain circumstances, he had become the Sect Master.

"There are people outside who might target you because of me, so I had no choice but to bring you here. But you don\'t have to worry. After a few days, we will go back home."

"Is it dangerous for you?" Yu Lin asked, as if thinking of something deeply. "Do you need help?"

"You little brat, do you have so little trust in your master?" Eren asked, flicking her forehead lightly. Even if he needed help, there was nothing Yu Lin could do at the moment.

In any case, he didn\'t want to drag her into this mess, knowing full well what kind of background this seemingly ordinary girl had.

"She is hiding a small portrait." While Eren finished speaking, Yelen returned and told her what she saw behind Yu Lin.

\'Is it the portrait of her mother? No wonder she was hiding it,\' Eren thought, not thinking much about it. At least that was the case until Yelen stated her next words.

"It\'s a portrait of you, standing next to a woman. And that woman isn\'t her but looks quite similar to her. It is most probably her mother," Yelen clarified, properly explaining what she saw.

Hearing her words, Eren was at a loss for words.

\'Ren Necroline knew her mother? Why did I not know anything about this plot? Is it also because I didn\'t read enough?\'

Eren rubbed his forehead, suddenly at a loss of words. He wondered if there was any significant plot point that this guy was not involved in.

The more he learned about it, the more he realized that Ren Necroline was a little too involved. There were only two possibilities. Either he was an absolute villain or the Main Character. Only those two could be involved in major plots to this extent.

\'But if that was the case, why did Ren Necroline die so early like an insignificant minor villain?\' he wondered.

"Master, are you alright?"

After hiding the portrait under the blanket, Yu Lin stood up and approached Eren, watching him standing still in a daze.

Eren opened his eyes, looking at Yu Lin suspiciously. If he hadn\'t known about the identity and traits of Yu Lin\'s mother, he might have even suspected that she was his own daughter. Fortunately, that was impossible.

Still, he was curious as to how Ren Necroline was involved with this girl\'s mother. Was that the reason she chose him as her master? He had a lot of questions and didn\'t know where to start.

"I am fine," Eren answered. "But I do have a question for y-"

He tried to ask the little girl about her family, trying to get her to spill something. However, before he could finish his sentence, he felt the entire palace tremble.

He absurdly turned towards a particular direction, her eyes narrowing.

\'Are they already here?\' he wondered. \'Just as I thought I could get some sleep.\'

Scratching the back of his head, he turned to leave. "I have something to do. I will be back soon. In my absence, don\'t leave this room."

He quickly left the room, closing the door behind him. He also cast the same layer of protection before running towards the Throne Room where Feng Yu was most probably waiting for him as she couldn\'t show herself.

....

Outside the Palace, thousands of disciples had gathered, surrounding the entire palace. They weren\'t alone as many Elders and Great Elders were also accompanying them.

With the old leader of Core Guards dead, the new leader was more loyal to the Ancestral Elders and did not even stop the disciples from reaching this place.

"Elder Ren, you killed our Sect Master to snatch her throne! We cannot accept you! Come out and die!"

"How dare you backstab the Sect Master?!"

Most of the disciples here were already brainwashed, only being used as pawns. Their only purpose was to die at Eren\'s hands to turn the entire sect against him.

If that happened, no one could blame the Ancestral Elders for intervening and killing Eren. Even if Feng Yu was alive and this was a trap, she couldn\'t do anything as the Ancestral Elders were going to be in the right.

Although the disciples, provoked by the Elders, asked for Eren to come out, but before a few seconds had passed, they barged inside the Palace with weapons while the Leader of the Guards opened the door wide open for them.
