Chapter 56: Asura's past
It was a star studded evening in Qiling City.
The City Lord's Mansion had become the gathering place of most prominent youngsters in the continent.
The Head Disciples of a lot of sects, that were on good terms with the Asura Sect, were present in the Mansion.
All of them had arrived to make their presence known. Some even brought their Juniors with them to show them around the world.
"Do you know the new City Lord's Mansion was created in the same place where the old City Lord's Mansion stood in the past."
The Crown Prince sat in his room, next to another young man whose identity was unknown.
Most of the guests were still downstairs, but for some reason, this young man was allowed to meet the Prince in advance.
"This is the same place where my dear brother was killed."
The unknown man took a sip of the while, hearing the Crown Prince speak.
"I heard about it. It was the work of Zhang Wei."
"That is right. She killed my innocent brother. I still can't believe that he is gone."
The Crown Prince revealed some sadness.
His personal servant stood behind him, slightly amused at the Crown Prince's acting. He was sad? He couldn't be any happier about it.
"The Great Demon Sect is just like that. They are too arrogant. It's only a matter of time before they have their downfall."
That is correct." The Crown Prince nodded. "You are the son of my master. So of course you know about these things. The Asura Sect had been gathering strength for a long time."
"We have allied with many other sects. And now all we need is an opportunity to strike, and drag those arrogant people down from their throne."
The young man didn't react. He did know about such things.
Although the Crown Prince was a disciple of the Asura Sect Master, he was the son. So he knew much more than the Crown Prince.
He knew how much his father hated the Great Demon Sect, and especially the Sect Master.
His father had never forgotten about their last meeting. At that time, he wasn't the Sect Master of Asura Sect.
Feng Yu was also very young and had just become the Sect Master of the Great Demon Sect.
Fang Yu was just a young girl at that time. Meanwhile his grandfather was much older. At that time, there was no concept of the Four Overlords either.
Both the Asura Sect and the Great Demon Sect had similar strength.
His Grandfather was the Sect Master of Asura Sect at that time. He had invited Fang Yu to discuss an alliance.
Fang Yu completely ignored the invitation. Even after that, his Grandfather didn't give up.
Despite having much more seniority, his Grandfather still put his ego aside and went to the Great Demon Sect.
There, he met Feng Yu. But that girl didn't even pay any attention to him.
His father had accompanied his grandfather, thanks to which he knew such things.
His grandfather told this story to him many times, making sure that this insult was never forgotten.
There were only two words that his father used to describe Feng Yu at that time. "Emotionless Doll."
His Grandfather told her about the benefits of alliance, and tried to convince her. But she didn't agree.
She told them to return, as if they were beggars.
"You are too arrogant, little girl. Do you really think that you are invincible? If you don't accept an alliance with us, can you bear the consequences if our sects ever become enemies?"
That was the only thing his grandfather said at the time of leaving. That's where it should have ended. But that wasn't the case.
Feng Yu, who hadn't reacted for a long time, finally moved.
He didn't have any weapons in her hand. She simply moved her finger, and an invisible force appeared all around her, suppressing everyone in this room.
His grandfather, and his father, both were forced on their knees, unable to resist that strange suppression.
Until now, his father believed that it was because the Great Demon Sect had some great formation in the meeting hall that was activated against them.
The emotionless Doll moved. She appeared right before his grandfather, grabbing his hair.
"Since you mentioned it, let me see what will happen if your sect wants to become an enemy!"
As she finished speaking, she ripped his grandfather's head off.
Blood splashed on his father's face, who still couldn't believe it. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
All he saw was the back of that emotionless woman who walked away, her hand stained in blood as she tossed the head away.
"You are free to wage a war on the Great Demon Sect."
Those were the last words his father heard from her.
His father returned from the Great Demon Sect, but for some reason, he was too scared to wage a war.
He felt like if he did that, his entire sect was going to be wiped out. But he couldn't forget this incident.
Even as his father became the new Sect Leader of Asura Sect, he had never forgotten this hate.
For the next few years, he thought about forming alliances with other Sects to surround the Great Demon Sect and destroy them.
Unfortunately, he wasn't given this opportunity.
This was the time the Great Demon Sect started eradicating all the nearby Sects.
Amongst the Great Sects of that time, only a few were left.
One of them was Asura Sect. They were too far from the Great Demon Sect, but the Asura Sect Master didn't know if that was the real reason.
It was also around the same time that the four continents were getting their powers consolidated.
In the Northern Sect, the Necromancer Tower rose to power by suppressing all other Magic Towers.
In the West, the Holy Empire rose to power, supported by the Holy Church.
In the South, the Hero Academy was established by the strongest Hero of the Southern Continent which became the power centre.
