With power centers emerging in the Four Continents, four Overlords were crowned.
There was no official ranking of the four Overlords. In each continent, their Overlord was known as the strongest.
In the Eastern Continent, the ranking was also based on slight bias.
The First Overlord was Feng Yu, the Sect Master of the Eastern Sect. She was also called the Emotionless Overlord.
The Second Overlord was the Tower Master of Necromancer Tower. His real name wasn't known by anyone, but he was called the Undead Overlord.
The Third Overlord was the Holy Priestess of the Holy Empire. Her name was Evangeline. Many even said that she was the reincarnation of a goddess.
She was called the Reincarnation Overlord.
The Eastern Continent hated the Southern Continent, so their Overlord was also ranked the last.
The Fourth Overlord was Mist, the Dean of Mythical Hero Academy and the only SSS Rank Hero in the Southern Continent.
People in the Eastern Continent called her Waste Overlord.
....
Feng Yu, who was once on an equal footing with the Asura Sect became one of the Overlords.
Even after killing the Asura Sect Master, she didn't face any consequences.
On the other hand, the Asura Sect became weaker. It was still the strongest sect in the Eastern Continent if one was to forget the Great Demon Sect.
There was never a single day where the current Asura Sect Master didn't regret his decision.
He always thought that he should have attacked the Great Demon Sect while he had the opportunity.
He was too cautious which allowed the Great Demon Sect an opportunity to become stronger.
He still didn't give up. Feng Yu had become the obsession in his heart. He wanted to break that Emotionless Doll. He wanted to trample on the Great Demon Sect.
That's why he had been gathering more allies. He had been gathering treasures and preparing for the right time to take everything back from the Great Demon Sect.
Until everything was ready, he was holding back. Most people thought that it was because he was scared, but only his son knew that it was because this wasn't the right time.
"I can't wait for the moment that Master destroys the Great Demon Sect and Asura Sect becomes the strongest."
"That time will definitely come. It's only a matter of time before Father becomes the next overlord. But until then, you can't leak this."
"I would never."
"I know you won't be so foolish. Because if my father becomes an Overlord, your position will also rise."
The young man smiled. He placed the empty glass back and stood up.
"Shall we go attend your birthday celebration then?"
"Since Junior Brother is ready, then certainly."
The Crown Prince finally left the room with the Sect Master's son.
They walked down the stairs, reaching the hall where people were having a conversation amongst them while waiting for the host.
In the center of the hall, a birthday cake was placed on a wooden table.
The Crown Prince was the host of this party, even if all the preparations were made by the City Lord.
He stood in the center of the hall and gave a small speech, thanking all the guests for attending his birthday celebration.
In the hall, there were many prominent youngsters. All of them had the potential to become the future of the next generation.
In the Crown Prince's eyes, they were all his future subordinates.
After Asura Sect became the Overlord Sect, not just these youngsters but even their Sect Masters were going to become his subordinates.
Currently, even an Inner Disciple of the Great Demon Sect had more importance than a Sect Master of smaller sects.
And he was going to become the Head Disciple of an Overlord Sect. He couldn't wait for that time. But until then, he couldn't reveal anything.
"Where is Gan Yang?"
In the hall, there were many people. But it was only now that the Crown Prince noticed that one person was missing.
The City Lord wasn't here.
"Lord Gan has gone to bring another guest."
"Another guest? Who is that arrogant guest that even the City Lord has to go get him? Did that guest not know it's my birthday? They should have come right away!"
The Crown Prince didn't know who this arrogant person was. They were showing such arrogance?
"Urgh, the identity of that person-"
The Servant tried to explain but before he could finish, the door opened and the City Lord entered with a wide grin on his face.
"Your Highness, I have brought a special guest to attend your birthday celebration."
He was looking forward to the Crown Prince thanking him for bringing a guest like that. But instead, he was only greeted with a frown.
"Hmph, let me see which Young Master or Mistress it was, that thought I needed to wait for them."
The City Lord's face turned pale as he heard the Crown Prince's words. He wanted to warn the Prince since the identity of the other person wasn't simple.
He wanted to surprise the Crown Prince, but didn't think that he was going to say words like that before he could even explain the identity of that person.
"Let alone you, even your father would have to wait for me if I wanted to attend."
A melodious voice came from the entrance. The arrogance in that voice was evident, which shocked many people.
There was still someone who talked to the Personal Disciple of Asura Sect Master like that? Just who did this woman think she was?
It was only when they saw the person entering the hall, they abruptly shut their mouth, swallowing the words that had fortunately not been spoken yet.
Even the Crown Prince was shocked. The person wasn't dressed in any luxurious attire like the other guests. But what they wore was enough to shock everyone.
It was the robe of the Great Demon Sect. And it wasn't an outer disciple but an Inner Disciple of that dangerous sect!
The Asura Sect Master's son frowned, his expressions darkening at the sight of this woman.
