Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

In the Eastern Province.

Outside Misty Mountain.

A team arrived here.

It was Chu Yuan and the Shopkeeper, along with a group of people.

After leading the Shopkeeper and others here, Chu Yuan stopped.

"Shopkeeper, you can set up the inn here, or if you think the location isn't quite right, you can move a bit to the east. There, it's closest to the Mortal Cities and there's also a main road," Chu Yuan said, standing with his hands clasped behind his back.

He brought the Shopkeeper here and gave a suggestion.

But the final decision was still left to the Shopkeeper, allowing him to make his own call.

After all, it was the Shopkeeper who would be running the inn.

The business aspect was still the most important.

Setting up outside Misty Mountain would mean not much customer traffic.

If they moved eastward, closer to the Mortal Cities, the customer traffic would definitely increase.

"No need, no need, Sect Master, I'll set up right here. Ahem, that is, Sect Master, where is your sect located?" the Shopkeeper asked with a smile, rubbing his hands together.

"The Sect? It's right in front there, within those clouds. Inside the clouds, there's a mountain, although it might not be too obvious from outside. There is also a sect on the opposite mountain; just remember that," Chu Yuan replied, pointing casually at Misty Mountain and Xiangdao Mountain to show the Shopkeeper, noting their locations.

"Oh, okay," the Shopkeeper promptly nodded in agreement.

"Hmm, Shopkeeper, are you sure you won't have any problems setting up here? There might not be much business," Chu Yuan reminded him once more.

"Sect Master, it's fine, I like the quiet. It's nice to set up here. Look, the mountains are beautiful, the water is clear, the clouds are heavenly; it's almost like the Immortal Realm. I like it right here," the Shopkeeper insisted.

He wasn't foolish.

In fact, one could say his vision was particularly sharp.

In his view, the business he was going to run was not on a mundane level, but at the level of immortal cultivation.

With the protection of the Wayless Sect, his safety was greatly assured.

With safety not being an issue, doing business would be too easy.

If he wanted to merely develop business among mortals, he wouldn't need to handle it personally; he could send some subordinates to do that.

His sights were always set at the level of immortal cultivation.

He knew that establishing an inn near the Wayless Sect would definitely play a significant role in the future.

The Shopkeeper was well-aware that countless powerhouses across Divinity Continent desired to find the Wayless Sect's location, to ingratiate themselves with it.

It was only because these strong figures couldn't find it yet.

But he believed there would come a day when the Wayless Sect would reveal itself actively.

And when that happened...

Wouldn't his inn rise with the wind?

The Shopkeeper saw this very clearly.

"Alright then, you go ahead and build a good inn here. I'll send someone later to preside over your establishment, to prevent any issues from arising," Chu Yuan said, resigning himself from the matter as he was eager to return to the sect and check on the situation there.

"Alrighty, Sect Master," the Shopkeeper quickly nodded.

Hearing this, Chu Yuan said no more, waved his hand, his figure moved, and he took off into the air, flying back towards Misty Mountain.

The Shopkeeper watched as Chu Yuan disappeared, staying silent.

A young attendant came over.

"Shopkeeper, how exactly should we build the inn? Do we have any blueprints? Without them, it might be difficult to build," the young attendant inquired.

"Just build it like we did in Silver Moon City," the Shopkeeper said with a dismissive wave of his hand.

"Right away, Shopkeeper," the attendant replied, receiving the order and swiftly turned to leave.

"Wait a minute!"

The shopkeeper seemed to suddenly think of something, calling out to halt the errand boy.

"Ah? Shopkeeper, what's the matter?"

The errand boy asked in confusion.

"Let me add one more thing. The inn should be built like the one in Silver Moon City, but we also need to construct a square around the inn. And in that square, erect a statue of Sect Master Chu. Did you get that?"

The shopkeeper repeated emphatically.

"Uh... yeah, I got it, Shopkeeper."

The errand boy looked at his boss with a strange expression in his eyes.

He always felt that his boss was becoming more and more like Sect Master Chu.

"If you've got it, then go and give out the orders."

The shopkeeper spoke up.

"Alright, I'll go right now."

The errand boy dared not grumble any longer and quickly turned to carry out the instructions.

…

Meanwhile.

On the other side, Chu Yuan, having returned to the Wayless Sect, found that the friendship competition between the two sects had long since ended.

Baize and Ning Fan had also gone back already.

The few disciples who had come back from outside were all sitting very obediently on the Sect Master's Great Hall Plaza, chatting leisurely, and everything seemed perfectly normal.

These disciples are so well-behaved?

Could it be that he was really overthinking it?

Chu Yuan felt puzzled.

This unease of his, was it all fake after all?

These disciples didn't really harbor any thoughts of backstabbing him, did they?

Indeed, metaphysics cannot be trusted!

That Divination Tube even gave him the vague warning of "thorns growing behind his back."

He, someone named Chu, knew that trusting the System was the correct decision.

Not to mention that these disciples who might backstab him hadn't played any tricks on him yet, what could they do even if they tried?

Tu Xuexi, Tu Yelin, and Si Yue, these three disciples, were personally judged by the System after all.

No one could stand against them, they were destined to fail.

"The System is still reliable..."

Chu Yuan sighed with feeling.

The future is promising.

Truly, the future is promising.

With his mood gradually becoming cheerful, someone named Chu strolled out leisurely, walking towards Ye Luo and the others.

As he got a bit closer, he could clearly hear the conversations among the disciples.

"Second Brother, Third Brother, and Fourth Sister, I'm telling you, it was right here that I grasped the Dao. Yes, the very spot you're sitting on right now."

"Back then, our Respected Master slashed towards the sky and said something to me. Do you know what Master said?" Explore more adventures at My Virtual Library Empire

"Master said, if I could comprehend a bit of that one slash, then I would have grasped the Dao. If I understood three or four parts of it, then I would be a top-notch powerhouse. Grasp five or six, and I could roam anywhere under the heavens..."

"At that time, I thought everything Master said was true. Later I realized Master was fooling people. What does grasping five or six have to do with going anywhere under the heavens? I grasped less than one part of it, and I was nearly invincible under the heavens..."

"Now that I think about it, Master was probably afraid I would aim too high, so he set a distant goal for me..."

Listening to Ye Luo say all this,

Chu Yuan was baffled at the time...

He was just bluffing back then; how could he know that Ye Luo would actually understand it?

And...

When had he ever worried that Ye Luo would aim too high?

His Eldest Disciple seemed to have quite the imagination.

"Ahem."

Chu Yuan didn't want to listen any further, so he coughed lightly to remind the disciples that he had returned.

On the other side, Ye Luo and the others, because they hadn't activated any Divine Sense within the sect, naturally didn't notice Chu Yuan, the mortal.

Only when Chu Yuan coughed did they notice him.

One by one, they stood up and saluted Chu Yuan…
