Eren remained motionless, simply watching Xiu Ying as she slept peacefully, like a child. He reached out his other hand and gently tucked a stray lock of her hair behind her ear.

"Uhmm." As if reacting to his touch, Xiu Ying made a subconscious noise. She moved closer to Eren, placing her arm over his chest, feeling the warmth coming from his body.

She felt safe in his embrace, a feeling which had been a luxury for someone like her ever since she was born. Even though she was an important figure in the Great Demon Sect, it was still rare to have moments like this.

After another hour passed, Xiu Ying finally started waking up. She opened her eyes, noticing Eren right next to her. She couldn\'t help but smile as if it was a beautiful dream that she didn\'t want to end.

She brought her lips close to Eren\'s lips, kissing him.

"Why didn\'t you wake me up if you were awake?" she asked Eren.

"I just woke up a few seconds ago," Eren lied to her, not telling her that he had been awake for close to an hour. He just didn\'t want to disturb her when she was sleeping.

"Do you really have to be the one to go?" Xiu Ying snuggled into Eren\'s embrace like a little kitten. "I can go to your place."

Eren was supposed to enter the Northern Continent with Cardinal Treniel. She wanted to go with him but he simply rejected her, saying that someone needed to stay behind.

She told him to leave Zia behind, only for Eren to confirm that Zia was also staying behind. It was also what worried Xiu Ying even more.

Eren wanted to go with Cardinal Treniel alone, leaving the other two Great Elders behind to protect the Holy Emperor, which was simply his clone that was extremely fragile.

When he was not in the city, if his clone was hurt even the slightest, it was going to disappear. If that happened, then everything he worked for, was going to end up being useless.

At the same time, it was going to be exposed that the real Holy Emperor had long been dead. As important as it was for him to leave the Holy City for now, it was just as important to protect his clone and his authority in the Holy City.

For that, he couldn\'t just rely on Uriel. He had to rely on Xiu Ying and Zia, both. His disciple was also staying behind, so it made it even more important for the Royal Palace to be secure.

"You don\'t have to worry about me. If it\'s just one Cardinal, I will return safely. It\'s his safety that one should be worried about." Eren innocently said.

He knew that as long as he was in the Western Continent, the Cardinal was not going to hurt him. If he was going to try anything, it could only be in the Northern Continent where the blame could be shifted.

At the same time, it was beneficial for Eren as well. If he killed the Cardinal in the Northern Continent, beyond the control of the Holy Church, they couldn\'t even detect his death right away.

The only reason they knew about Archbishop Nathaniel\'s death so fast, was only because he died within the border of the Western Continent.

Eren also couldn\'t let Xiu Ying leave the Holy Empire in his place as he had a lot of things to handle outside the Holy Empire, other than just going to the Northern Continent.

Everyone believed that he wanted to go to the Northern Continent to investigate the disappearance of the envoys of the Demon Sect, but he already knew where the envoys were kept captive.

For now, they were safe. Hence, he wasn\'t in a hurry to save them. Instead, he was just using this investigation as a smokescreen.

His real goal was none other than finding the Celestial Dragon\'s heart with the Sea Dragon Empress. For that he had to leave the city and kill Treniel so he could have some freedom to maneuver.

"I will be back before you know it." He gently brushed his fingers against Xiu Ying\'s cheeks. After giving her one more kiss, he retracted his hand and stood up.

He entered the shower to get prepared for departure. In the shower, he observed the sword mark on his arm, not noticing any change for now. After the dream where he received the sword, he didn\'t have any other weird dreams either.

He was still confused about the meaning behind those dreams. After a short shower, he dried his body with the Dragon Tongue Magic.

He covered the sword mark with a black cloth strip before wearing clothes. On top, he draped the robe of the Great Elder of the Demon Sect, returning to his main identity.

After getting completely dressed, he left the shower.

"Are you angry?" he asked, finding Xiu Ying sitting on the bed, her back facing him. It was as if she was really upset that he wasn\'t taking her with him.

He approached her, only to grow stunned when he looked at her properly. She was not moving, as if she had been turned into a statue.

It was also just now that he noticed other strange things. It was as if time itself had been stopped for Xiu Ying.

"What brought you here?" Realizing what was happening, Eren asked while slowly turning around.

When Eren looked back, he noticed a familiar person, holding an umbrella even indoors. There was a strange mist covering the person which made it impossible to see him properly, but his presence was undeniable.

Normally, Eren had to partially activate the question voucher to bring the person down, but this time he came on his own?
