Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

Atop Misty Mountain, clouds and mist swirled in ethereal dances, like a scene from the Immortal Realm. A series of majestic halls stood in succession, their vague silhouettes filled with an imposing air that inspired reverence, deterring any intention of transgression.

Ye Luo held his sword and walked a great loop around the Sect, finally arriving at the plaza outside the main hall.

"The Sect really is enormous. I've been walking for three hours and still haven't seen it all. It's no less grand than the Tianqing Sect in East State..."

Ye Luo was filled with emotion.

The Divinity Continent was divided into several large states, and the region where Wayless Sect resided belonged to East State.

In East State, there stood countless Sects and kingdoms, among which the most flourishing in the southern part of the state was none other than Tianqing Sect.

Because of his family's circumstances, he had once entered the Tianqing Sect.

He could affirm that the Wayless Sect was not a bit weaker than Tianqing Sect, and even in the momentum of its architectural structures, it far surpassed Tianqing Sect.

The only aspect where it was lacking was that Wayless Sect was too quiet...

Quiet to an extreme degree.

It was as though the entire Sect was devoid of people.

Oh, well, that was indeed the case.

It was just him alone.

"No, this is very wrong. A Sect that doesn't pale to Tianqing Sect, how could it possibly be so obscure?"

"Furthermore, I have witnessed the strength of my Respected Master. Even some Elders from Tianqing Sect are no match for him. Although I do not know which Realm my Respected Master has reached, he is definitely a great powerhouse. For such a strong person to have no fame in East State, this defies logic."

"The only possibility is that Wayless Sect is a Hidden Sect that has recently re-emerged!"

"Yes, that's the way it is!"

Ye Luo planted his long sword into the ground, a sharp gleam flickering in his eyes.

If he had indeed joined a Hidden Sect, then his problem of being unable to cultivate would surely be solved.

Every Hidden Sect was mysterious and powerful, and he was not worried that the Sect would fail to solve the issue of his inability to cultivate.

Well, most importantly,

his Respected Master had promised him.

He could help him resolve the issue of being unable to cultivate.

That was the reason he felt most at ease.

It was unlikely that his Respected Master was deceiving him, right?

No, that couldn't be.

Could someone truly think his Respected Master was deceiving him?

Don't be ridiculous.

Why would such a powerhouse trick him?

For fun?

Impossible!

"Luo Er,"

A distant and ethereal voice came, seeming far and yet near, indistinct and unsettled.

As soon as Ye Luo heard this voice, he pushed aside the multitude of thoughts in his mind, and put on a proudly aloof appearance.

In the presence of his Respected Master, he had to maintain his image.

After a while,

Chu Yuan descended from the sky, walking on clouds, his robe billowing and long hair fluttering, like an unrivaled Immortal who wandered the mortal world, causing Ye Luo to gaze with envy.

To cultivate the Dao and become an Immortal, free and easy

How many people dreamed of this?

Now, the opportunity lay before him. He must seize it, cultivate his skills, and thus become an unrivaled Immortal, not disappointing his Respected Master!

"Respected Master!"

Ye Luo bowed to Chu Yuan, showing great respect.

Chu Yuan nodded indifferently, speaking quite casually, "Luo Er, have you found a suitable dwelling yet? If not, your master can personally take you to look for one."

Upon hearing this, Ye Luo bowed quickly, "There's no need to trouble you, Respected Master. Your disciple has already found a suitable dwelling. It's just that, seeing the vastness of the Sect, your disciple has been struck with a longing to cultivate, to traverse the void at an early date, to view the full extent of our Sect."

"Thus, your disciple earnestly requests that you, Respected Master, resolve the impediment preventing his cultivation!"

Once these words were out,

Chu Yuan was choked up. He had originally wanted to put Ye Luo off with a month-long tour of the sect and address the matter later.

But this kid,

demanded to start cultivating right away.

Luckily,

Luckily this kid lacked a Spirit Root and was fundamentally incapable of cultivation.

Otherwise, just his diligence alone would have ruined his grand plan!

Forget it, forget it.

Since the kid wasn't interested in a month-long sect tour,

he only had to initiate Plan B.

Time for a smooth talk!!

Chu Yuan thought to himself, but outwardly he was as calm as a cloud, turning around, facing the sky, and not saying a word.

Ye Luo, seeing his master like this, also looked up into the sky.

The sun was shining brightly today.

The sunlight was blinding.

Unbearable!

Ye Luo could only lower his head after a moment, as the midday sun was just too glaring.

When he turned his head to look at Chu Yuan again, he saw Chu Yuan staring at the sun in the sky, expressionless, without even blinking once.

He couldn't help but marvel internally.

A respected master is a respected master, a strong person is different from us mortals, able to stare directly at the sun without changing his expression, not even blinking.

But what Ye Luo didn't know was,

inside, Chu Yuan was cursing up a storm.

According to the normal process, wasn't Ye Luo supposed to ask what he was looking at, then he'd hoodwink him smoothly?

This kid, not saying a damn word.

Doesn't he know how uncomfortable it is for his eyes?

He could already feel the burning sensation in his eyes, he believed that once he closed them, tears would definitely stream down his face.

If he cried, what would happen to his image?

He definitely couldn't close his eyes.

Chu Yuan silently waited for Ye Luo to speak.

But Ye Luo remained silent, standing aside like he didn't dare to disturb his master.

This really irritated Chu Yuan, almost making him muster up his Nascent Soul Expert mana to send this useless disciple to the western paradise with a slap.

Fortunately, just when Chu Yuan was about to 'lose his patience,' Ye Luo finally spoke up.

"Disciple earnestly requests master to remove the hindrance to my cultivation. In the future, I will diligently cultivate to repay master's kindness!"

What a champ!

You're dancing on the edge of death, aren't you?

Chu Yuan silently withdrew his hand that had been sticking out of his sleeve, turned his back to Ye Luo, lowered his head, and spoke in an indifferent voice, "To resolve your inability to cultivate is easy. With a simple wave of my hand, all could be settled, but I do not wish for you to start cultivating now. Do you know why?"

He doesn't want me to start cultivating now?

Ye Luo was puzzled for a moment and shook his head, "Disciple doesn't know."

Chu Yuan walked a few steps forward, not letting the disciple see his tear-streaked face, and as he walked, he spoke.

"You were born without a Spirit Root, naturally unable to cultivate. Such special circumstances, in fact, are not uncommon in the lengthy river of history. Take for example Xiao Huohuo, who was deemed useless for three years but eventually became the Flame Emperor; Shi Hao, who had his Supreme Bone gouged out as a youth and ultimately became the Heavenly Emperor; and the Crooked-Mouthed Dragon King among others. All these figures had unique circumstances, but each one of them eventually became a figure who stood with their back to the world..."

"So, I have great expectations for you, Luo Er. Do you understand?"

Ye Luo was stunned for a moment.

Flame Emperor? Heavenly Emperor? Crooked-Mouthed Dragon King?

Why hadn't he heard of these titles?

Could it be that these were some secret knowledge unknown to the common people, recorded only by Hidden Sects?
