Chapter 294: Chapter 294: Selection or Sacrifice



A mental transmission pierced his thoughts, a voice directly in his head, making it impossible for others to overhear.

To his surprise, the voice belonged to Ancestral Elder Yang Wei, the very person responsible for contacting Mist.

Frowning, Eren scanned his surroundings but could not find Yang Wei anywhere.

"There\'s no point in trying to find me. I\'m in your house right now," the voice reappeared in his mind. "I must say, it was clever of you to take your disciple away. However, isn\'t it sad that you only took one of them?"

The voice continued, "You truly are an interesting person. Much more intriguing than I initially thought. To think that you accepted a Great Elder as a disciple... Not bad."

Eren was taken aback by Ancestral Elder Yang\'s words. He did not understand how that man even knew about Zia being his disciple. However, his words also made his intentions clear.

Eren was wondering why he had not seen Zia today. Now the reason became absolutely clear. The reason she was not here was because of Ancestral Elder Yang.

"I am sure you are wise enough to know what to choose. Are you going to side with Feng Yu or side with us? Give us the ring and I will release your disciple. Or you can side with her and watch your disciple\'s corpse being sent to you.\'

The Ring could not be snatched by killing the owner. It could only be passed down from one owner to the other which was why the Ancestral Elders could not snatch it.

Even if they killed Eren and took the Sect Master\'s position, it was just going to be an empty position as they couldn\'t open the treasury without the ring.

"Aren\'t you being a little too paranoid? Feng Yu is already dead," Eren answered Ancestral Elder Yang, sticking to the story. "I am only siding with myself."

He knew that the Ancestral Elders were suspicious about this all being Feng Yu\'s trap. That\'s also why they used the disciples. If they were convinced, they never would\'ve done that.

Only after their plan failed, they used the next plan which didn\'t require them actually killing Eren.

He was sure that if their plan had worked and Feng Yu had appeared, they would still have used Zia to force him to betray and backstab her.

"We will find that ourselves. You will come here alone to hand me the ring. And the other Ancestral Elders will enter the Palace to search every corner to confirm that Feng Yu isn\'t there," Ancestral Elder Yang said.

"You have two minutes to decide before I start dealing with your precious disciple." With the last warning, the voice went silent.

Eren stood there in silence, watching the other Ancestral Elders looking at him with a smug look. It was as if they had already known that he was going to be blackmailed.

"What happened? Are you not going to teach us a lesson?" The Ancestral Elders laughed as they walked past Eren to enter the Palace of the Great Demon Sect, inside which Feng Yu was staying.

Eren was conflicted. Was he to save Zia who was his disciple? As the System made him choose a disciple, he was sure that she was important to the plot. However, more than the plot, he wants to save her for herself.

On the other hand, there was Feng Yu, an even more integral part of the plot. If something happened to her, he was sure that the entire plot was going to collapse. He still needed her to remove a seal.

At the same time, his heart didn\'t allow him to sacrifice her. Still, he was only allowed to save one of the two in this situation.

He rubbed his forehead as he watched the Ancestral Elders entering the Palace. As Feng Yu was still under the seal of the cuffs, she couldn\'t even fight back if she was caught.

On the other hand, Zia wasn\'t strong enough to fight back against Ancestral Elder Yang.

....

Eren looked at the options which depicted the choices that he actually had.

It was the first time where there were no weird options with coffins as rewards, which meant there was a possibility of success in all of them. Only the difficulty was different.

"I know I might have to blame myself for this choice later, but here we go..."

He raised his hand and tapped on an option before closing his eyes. He took a deep breath before opening them, brimming with determination to go through hell to complete this choice if needed.

....

"The first place to check..." Inside the Palace, the Ancestral Elders pushed open the door to the main hall which was the place from where Feng Yu was kidnapped in the first place.

They hadn\'t expected to find her at such an obvious place even if she was alive but just to be sure, they decided to check it.

"Huh?"

As soon as the door opened, the Ancestral Elders saw a woman sitting on the throne.

Shocked, they all took a step back in fear. They hadn\'t forgotten how scary she had been when she had been culling the Ancestral Elders in the past.

"She is actually alive!" One of the Ancestral Elders exclaimed, falling on his butt in fear.

"Wait, something doesn\'t feel right! Why are there cuffs on her hand? I also can\'t feel any strength from her. Did she... lose her strength?"

"This... Hahaha, no wonder she was hiding! Otherwise she would\'ve already killed us!"

"Doesn\'t that mean she can\'t resist us? We can do anything we want! The Sect will actually be ours!"

"Forget the sect, I\'m more interested in making her mine!" Another Ancestral Elder licked his lips as he stepped inside the main hall.

"I still haven\'t forgotten how she treated us like sht in the past! It\'s time to return the favor!" Another Ancestral Elder exclaimed, loosening his collar.
