Chapter 120: Chapter 120: Try it and watch me rip you to shreds

"Say another world and your head will go flying!"

Eren's cold voice sent shivers down Ye Liang's spine. Yu Lin was also taken aback. It truly looked like her master might actually kill this guy.

The Main Character... It was the person who brought the plot of the story forward. He was the reason that the story kept going until the point Eren had stopped reading.

Many times, Eren had thought about killing the main character and getting rid of any potential threat. But he didn't want to change the future he remembered too much.

At best, he only thought about stealing the opportunities that he needed and to make sure he couldn't grow beyond his control. He thought about using the Main Character to his benefit, but this was too much.

Only a few months had passed, and this Main Character was already trying to climb above his head?

Not only was he trying to kill his disciple, but also acting as if he was a fool who couldn't see what actually happened here?

'Maybe I should just... kill him!'

Eren looked at the young man, who was on his knees.

Ye Liang could feel that Eren actually wanted to kill him. It wasn't just a threat anymore. He really hadn't thought that things would reach this point. If he had known, he never would have come.

He simply thought that Eren wasn't here, so he could secretly kill Yu Lin and return. Unlike other mountains, this mountain was completely empty.

Only Elder Ren and his one disciple lived here. Hence, it was almost impossible to leave any witness with Elder Ren's absence.

Even if anyone suspected him, what could they do? He was also an Elder's disciple, so they couldn't do anything to him just on the basis of suspicions.

Unfortunately, the Elder not only returned, but happened to see everything.

'This useless system! I should have known that it wasn't going to be so simple when it offered such a good reward for this side quest!'

"Hmm?" Eren noticed the pendant around the young man's neck shining. "So you already alerted your master?"

The pendant on Ye Liang's neck was a rare communication jade. Each elder only received one of these things, that that could give to their most precious disciple.

As long as the disciple was within the range of the Elder, they could send a message to their master with just their thoughts.

Although it could only be used once a day, it was still a treasure for disciples favored by their masters.

Eren was not surprised to see this boy have it. It was normal for him to attract his master's attention with his skills. However, he also hadn't expected him to receive such a thing so early.

While Eren was observing the pendant, he felt that the temperature had dropped a lot.

"He must care a lot about you. To think he came in such a hurry," Eren said, but instead of releasing Ye Liang, his grip only tightened.

The temperature kept dropping, as if they had been shoved into the Frozen Lands. There was only one Elder in the sect who could be associated with this strange phenomenon.

He was an Elder who froze an entire Kingdom into a thick block of ice, killing countless. From that day, the ice over that Kingdom still hadn't melted.

He was Elder Li, who had another nickname... The Frozen Demon. He was also the master who selected Ye Liang.

"Elder Ren, can you release my disciple?"

"And what if I don't?" Eren asked, without even looking towards the source of the voice.

Even with the lowered temperature, his dragon blood kept his body warm. Meanwhile, his Sword Aura destroyed any snowflake that even approached his body.

"Then I might have to do the same with your disciple..." A calm yet threatening voice came in response.

"Try it and watch me rip you to shreds..."
