Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

Silver Moon City, Xianzui Inn.

Second floor.

Chu Yuan was listening to a story that the shopkeeper was telling.

Well, in response to Chu Yuan's inquiry,

the shopkeeper clearly used the trick of 'covering a lie with another lie' to fob him off.

"Big brother, you don't know how terrible this sect is, not only does their Sect Master spend recklessly in my shop every day, leading to my accounts not adding up!"

"This sect also wants to bring its entire membership here to eat and drink and take without paying. I mean, what's up with that?"

"Ah? What? Big brother, you want to stand up for me? No need, their sect is powerful, with several Nascent Soul Realm experts. You don't need to stand up for me!"

The shopkeeper said repeatedly.

The initially furious Chu Yuan froze when he heard this.

Several Nascent Soul Realms?

He looked down at his own realm, Early Golden Core Realm.

Oh, this...

It seemed like he probably wasn't enough to take them on.

But was it a big problem?

Not a big problem at all!

He might not be strong enough, but he still had Ye Luo.

He remembered Ye Luo was supposedly at the combat level of the Divinity Transformation Realm.

If he couldn't win, couldn't he just call his disciple to help?

After all, Ye Luo had not yet been expelled from his sect; asking for help was completely fine.

"It's okay, shopkeeper, just tell me which sect it is. Later, when my disciple returns from his training, I'll send him to sort it out,"

Chu Yuan said with unwavering determination.

"This..."

The shopkeeper's mind was in turmoil, not expecting this to still not divert Chu Yuan's attention.

But he was supposed to name a sect.

Which sect should he mention?

"Tian... Tianqing Sect! Yes, that's right, Tianqing Sect!"

The shopkeeper suddenly slapped his thigh and announced the name.

The Tianqing Sect was the biggest nearby sect!

He didn't believe that hearing this name, the man before him would dare to speak of standing up for him.

But what the shopkeeper didn't know,

was that Chu Yuan didn't remember the names of any sects in the East State at all.

Upon hearing 'Tianqing Sect',

Chu Yuan nodded and quietly took note.

"Alright, Tianqing Sect, I've noted it for you. I said I would stand up for you, and I will,"

Chu Yuan said indifferently.

The shopkeeper's face stiffened.

Keep pretending.

It was clear to him that this was just talk, and as soon as Chu Yuan turned around, he would act as if nothing had happened.

If you really dare to trouble the Tianqing Sect, I'd eat my entire huge inn!

But the shopkeeper would certainly not reveal this.

In any case, it was best to move past this topic.

The shopkeeper wiped the sweat from his forehead, took a deep breath, and calmed his nerves.

"Big brother, what brings you here all of a sudden? Is everything sorted out with the weapons?"

The shopkeeper asked cheerfully.

"All sorted out, and I owe you thanks for the information."

Chu Yuan replied with a smile.

Now it was the shopkeeper's turn to be perplexed.

Over at Mirror Lake, there was a reclusive expert.

The man before him had truly managed the task?

Had he taken the wrong path and gotten mixed up?

Yes! That must be it!

Definitely!

"Big brother, you're welcome, no need to mention it. What are we, strangers? Don't talk like that,"

the shopkeeper said, quickly putting on a smiling face.

"Mm, here, take these silvers as a token of my thanks. You'll want to keep them safe,"

Chu Yuan chuckled and handed over a cloth to the shopkeeper.

Inside it was, of course, those silvers.

These were silvers from a future invincible being.

Just take good care of it,

That thing can be a family heirloom in the future!

On the other side, the shopkeeper took the piece of cloth, opened it, and looked inside.

He saw a few pieces of silver hidden within.

At the same time, it emitted a strange smell.

The shopkeeper's eyebrows twitched as he smelled it, almost retching on the spot.

"Big guy, let's just forget it, you see, I don't lack this bit of money,"

The shopkeeper tried to decline.

"No way, how can we forget it, take it and keep it safe, it will definitely have an unbelievable value in the future,"

Chu Yuan waved his hand.

He sighed silently in his heart.

Mortals will be mortals, ah.

This is a gift from a future invincible being, and he actually doesn't want it.

Hearing this, the shopkeeper could only bitterly accept the silver pieces.

As Chu Yuan looked over the remnants of food on the table, he raised an eyebrow and glanced at the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper promptly called out to a waiter, who brought a new assortment of dishes to the table.

Chu Yuan looked at the dishes before him, immediately feeling comfortable, lazily sitting and picking up his chopsticks to taste the food.

Although he was in the Early Golden Core Realm and could sustain himself using the mana within his body, not needing to eat grains, he couldn't help his gluttony.

While eating, Chu Yuan spoke.

"Shopkeeper, have there been any news lately? You, being so well-informed, should know about every little piece of information in East State pretty quickly, right?"

Upon hearing this,

The shopkeeper paused in thought, then pondered for a moment.

"There is, there's a piece of news about the Cultivation Realm. It seems there's an ancient Hidden Sect that has emerged in our East State."

"It's said that this ancient Hidden Sect has a heritage of hundreds of thousands of years and contains many terrifying beings within it, beings so powerful that Tribulation Transcenders are like ants in front of this Hidden Sect. Any being from within the Sect can extinguish a swath of Tribulation Transcenders with just a glance!"

"This news has spread wildly in the Cultivation Realm, and it's because it's spread so rampantly that I came to know of it; otherwise, I wouldn't have the credentials to learn such news,"

The shopkeeper said.

Pfft!!

Chu Yuan, who was sipping soup, heard this news.

He spurted out the soup he hadn't yet swallowed.

It sprayed all over the shopkeeper's face.

Shopkeeper: "..."

Nascent Soul Expert's soup spray +1.

"Is what you're saying true?"

Chu Yuan was astonished.

What in the world, a Hidden Sect has appeared in East State?

Tribulation Transcenders are like ants inside a Hidden Sect?!

Within the Hidden Sect, a being with just a glance can annihilate countless Tribulation Transcenders?!

Hiss!

Hiss!

Hiss!

Chu Yuan inwardly gasped in shock.

This is way too terrifying.

Just what kind of Hidden Sect is this?

To be this horrifyingly powerful.

He can't afford to provoke them, he can't afford to provoke them.

If he were to offend this kind of Hidden Sect, how would he be able to get by?

Chu Yuan envisioned a person from within the Hidden Sect, standing in the void, glancing over,

And his entire sect biting the dust.

Although Chu Yuan felt that he would definitely be an invincible being one day, he still needed time to grow.

No, no,

He would have to keep an even lower profile from now on.

Chu Yuan made a silent vow to himself.

On the other side, the shopkeeper, upon hearing Chu Yuan's words, quickly responded.

"Of course, it's true. That's how the rumor goes out there, and there are even more terrifying versions, but this one seems the most believable."

After hearing this, Chu Yuan made up his mind...

East State.

Is far too terrifying...
