Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

Behind the cliffs of the Wayless Sect.

Ao Yu stood there with deep regret etched across his face.

He regretted it.

Regretted coming out.

How good it would have been if he had stayed in Yun State, in the Silver Sky River Dragon Manor.

But he had been afraid of his father.

Ao Yu finally understood.

This world was perilous.

Even if his father, the Dragon Monarch, was detestable, he only wanted him to serve as a breed dragon.

But some people wanted to use him as a mount.

Like the person in front of him.

Ao Yu's gaze was dark as he looked at Zhang Han.

Time and again they made him serve as a mount.

The hearts of men are wicked!!

On the other side, Zhang Han felt somewhat guilty being watched like this.

"Cough cough, really, Ao Yu, this time is really the last time, I swear I'm not lying to you!"

Zhang Han spoke up.

"Elder Zhang, you said the same thing the time before last,"

Ao Yu said darkly.

"Those were accidents, this time is for real. I'm planning to go to Zhongzhou, that's why I need you, and once this is over, I will personally take you back to Yun State!"

Zhang Han smiled warmly as he continued.

"Elder Zhang, there is no trust left between us."

Ao Yu remained uncompromising.

To have been duped several times, did they really think he, Ao Yu, was a fool?

Thinking of riding him again?

Impossible!!!

The Dragon Clan could never be ridden!!!

Even if Ao Yu had to jump off the cliff behind him and die here, he would never allow himself to be ridden!

The Dragon Clan will never be used as mounts!!!

Ao Yu's stance was firm.

This caused Zhang Han on the side to have a massive headache.

He inwardly cursed Su Qianyuan and the others to no end.

If not for those people 'mistreating' Ao Yu,

it wouldn't be so hard to deceive him.

But it wasn't a big problem.

He believed that he could still deceive Ao Yu.

After all, it was just a Canglong who hadn't been in the world for long.

How could he not be able to deceive him?

Zhang Han pondered for a moment before he slowly began to speak.

"Ao Yu, this really is the last time. Don't you think I might deceive you again?"

Zhang Han patted Ao Yu's shoulder, saying.

"Hmm."

Ao Yu nodded seriously.

"Sigh, look at you, do I seem like someone who would deceive people?"

Zhang Han appeared distressed.

"Yes."

Ao Yu continued to nod seriously.

Zhang Han: "..."

It's not like he had ridden him more than two or three times.

Such a bad impression already?

Forget it, forget it.

"Since you trust me so little, how about this? Would making an oath work? Do you know about Spirit Root?"

Zhang Han said, feigning helplessness.

"I know. Your Human Race needs Spirit Root for cultivation."

Ao Yu answered truthfully.

"Right, cultivation needs the Spirit Root. If there's no Spirit Root, then one cannot cultivate. So here, I will swear to the heavens and earth, if this isn't the last time I ride you, may the heavens and earth destroy my Spirit Root! Never to have a Spirit Root again! Can you believe me now?"

Zhang Han began to speak slowly.

His tone carried a hint of amusement.

"Are you mad? Elder Zhang, there's no need for this, are you truly willing to swear on your Spirit Root?"

Ao Yu was shocked.

He had not expected Zhang Han to dare make an oath involving his own Spirit Root.

Such a vow to the heavens and earth was no trifling matter.

It genuinely held power.

But why was there no response from the heavens and earth?

Ao Yu remembered reading that when making vows to the heavens and earth, they would normally respond.

But this time there was no response.

Forget it, he's never witnessed a true oath to heaven and earth, so maybe this is how it's done.

Ao Yu felt a deep shock at Zhang Han's resolve this time.

Maybe...

This time, Elder Zhang truly didn't deceive him.

"Only like this can you understand my determination, this really is the last time," Zhang Han's eyes sparkled as he spoke.

"Really... really the last time?"

Ao Yu still wavered.

"Really the last time, I'm not lying to you!!" Zhang Han nodded, his words full of certainty.

"Alright then."

Ao Yu still nodded in agreement.

As soon as he said this,

Zhang Han immediately relaxed.

He had managed to bluff his way through again.

Spirit Root?

Sorry, he doesn't have one.

His Spirit Root was obliterated long ago.

Using it to swear an oath couldn't be better.

Just now, when he saw that heaven and earth didn't respond, he got a scare.

Fearing that Ao Yu had caught on.

Now it seems, Ao Yu is still too young.

"Yes, this is the last time, I'll take you back to Yun State personally after we're done," Zhang Han patted Ao Yu on the shoulder as he said.

"However, we're going to Zhongzhou this time, you should prepare for a long flight."

"Okay, Elder Zhang, as long as this really is the last time," Ao Yu said quite helplessly.

"Okay, okay, you go get ready, I'm heading out first," Zhang Han said with a smile.

After speaking,

he turned and left,

heading towards the Ancestral Master Hall.

As he walked, he looked down at the Confucian Robe he was wearing,

considering whether to change into something more impressive first.

The grand contest of all sects was about establishing his prestige.

Perhaps changing into a different robe would be better.

Truth be told, he had never bothered much with his appearance.

Accustomed to wearing a Confucian Robe, he would just find a Wooden Hairpin and pin up his hair and that was it, relying entirely on his aura and good looks when he stepped out.

Zhang Han pondered whether he should spruce up his appearance as he made his way to the Ancestral Master Hall.

He was only halfway there when he bumped into Ye Luo and three other fellow disciples coming out.

"Where's the Respected Master? Why have you come out so quickly, I was just going to pay a visit to the Respected Master," Zhang Han raised an eyebrow and asked.

"The Respected Master asked us to get ready, we're departing to Zhongzhou," Ye Luo waved his hand as he said.

"You're leaving now? By the way, did any of you ask the Respected Master about whether there are any realms beyond the Tribulation Transcending Stage?" Zhang Han asked again.

"We didn't get the chance to ask yet, East State is quite far from Zhongzhou, we're setting out now and can ask on the way," Ye Luo replied like that.

"I see, then big brother, wait for me a moment, I'll change into a new outfit and come back," Zhang Han said, then turned and flew towards his own palace.

The three standing there were momentarily stunned.

They hadn't noticed before

that Zhang Han actually cared so much about his appearance.

Ye Luo looked at Zhang Han's departing figure, shook his head, then turned to face Su Qianyuan and Dantai Luo Xue.

He opened his mouth, wanting to ask if the two of them also needed to go back and change,

but after some thought, he decided against it.

Su Qianyuan, being a Body Refinement cultivator, might just burst out of his clothes in a fight, what's the use in changing?

And as for Dantai Luo Xue?

Forget it, Dantai Luo Xue was already very attractive to begin with, even a casual look had its own devastating charm, no need to purposefully dress up.

So, does that mean Zhang Han is ugly?

That's not it either, there are no ugly Disciples of the Hidden Sect.

Zhang Han had a kind of scholarly immortal's air about him, and in terms of good looks, he was also excellent.

In the end, it just meant this second oldest had too many quirks, including the need to dress up.

Ye Luo shook his head, not bothering to say anything more, standing quietly waiting for Zhang Han to return.

In his heart, he estimated how to consult the Respected Master about whether there are realms beyond the Tribulation Transcendence Stage during their journey...
