Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

In the main square of Haoran Academy. Countless elite disciples had gathered here for the oath-taking ceremony. At the very front, the Principal Zhou Lin stood with a large group of teachers. They did not immediately deliver an inspiring speech nor declare war against the Wayless Sect. Instead, they waited in place. It seemed as if they were deliberately delaying time. Standing at the very back of the stage, like a miniature sun, Chu Yuan paid it no mind. Let them delay if they wished; it was of no concern to him. Neither was the forthcoming battle. If someone dared to provoke him, he would launch a Golden Halo and send them all home to meet Jesus. "Daoist Chu." Zhou Lin approached from the side and greeted him. "Daoist Zhou." Chu Yuan also came back to his senses and looked at Zhou Lin. "Daoist Chu, I'm truly sorry. You've only just joined, and yet a great battle is upon us. This battle is no trivial matter and we'll need your strength," Zhou Lin said with a feigned display of apology. "Hmm, if necessary, I'll take action," Chu Yuan replied nonchalantly, nodding his head. "Good, Daoist Chu is indeed straightforward. By the way, that Demonic Qi of yours is about to take shape. I estimate that it will complete its transformation after this battle," Zhou Lin commented. "Then I must thank Daoist Zhou," Chu Yuan's eyes lit up. After the battle, the Demonic Qi would complete its transformation? Was his grandfather's plan about to commence? "No need to thank me, no need at all. However, Daoist Chu, I have another favor to ask of you. As the Tribulation Transcending Realm Guest Elder of our Haoran Academy, you might need to make a speech later, to boost morale," Zhou Lin said. Upon hearing this... Chu Yuan was momentarily stunned. Him? Give a speech to inspire the troops? Nice play. "Certainly, certainly," Chu Yuan had no reason to refuse and nodded in agreement. "Then, Daoist Chu, take this. Just read the words written here when it's time," Zhou Lin handed over a script to Chu Yuan. Chu Yuan took it and immediately began to read. Hmm. The phrasing was good. All of it was geared toward inspiring the disciples. Indeed, this script could certainly inspire them. As he read through it... When he saw the reasons for the war, Chu Yuan's interest was piqued. He began to read carefully. When Chu Yuan learned of the opposing sect's atrocities, anger welled within him. Domination of the entire continent, intent on controlling the whole of it, was a minor issue. The document stated that the sect committed every conceivable evil, continually sending disciples to control various states, treating all living beings within those states as slaves with the aim to return the entire Divinity Continent to an era of slavery. This infuriated Chu Yuan. Turning the entire Divinity Continent into a slave system meant that he too would become a slave. No wonder there was a war. The opposing sect deserved it! To not wage war would be indefensible! When the battle ensued, he would see if his Golden Halo was effective against them or not. However, when Chu Yuan read the last few words of the final paragraph, he was dumbfounded. The last few words were clearly marked there. 'Topple the Wayless Sect, return freedom to the continent!' Topple who? The Wayless Sect? Wasn't the Wayless Sect his own sect? Topple his Wayless Sect? Chu Yuan was utterly bewildered. He was bewildered as to why they were attacking the Wayless Sect. When had the Wayless Sect ever committed so many evil deeds? "Um, Daoist Zhou, are you sure... sure that it's the Wayless Sect you want to attack?" Chu Yuan looked at Zhou Lin, asking very seriously. "Yes, it's the Wayless Sect. Daoist, don't be intimidated by the name of the Wayless Sect. Although the Wayless Sect is indeed powerful, the forces on our side are not small either." Zhou Lin thought that Chu Yuan was scared and said so. "To tell the truth, Daoist Zhou, I have another identity..." Chu Yuan let out a deep sigh, ready to reveal his cards. He didn't know why the Wayless Sect was being declared war upon. But it was time for him to return. To return and take command of the Wayless Sect. He definitely didn't want his sect to get attacked. He had to go back and take command. He wanted to see whether his Invincible State was stronger or these people's methods were. "Another identity, Daoist? I've always known that, with your condition, you must have your Primordial Spirit out, which means you have another identity. I can understand that." Zhou Lin had an 'I knew it all along' look on his face. "You know? Then do you know who I am?" Chu Yuan said in a quiet voice. "I don't know that." Zhou Lin shook his head. "No more pretending, I'll lay it out: I am the Sect Master of the Daoless Sect, Chu Yuan." Chu Yuan revealed his cards. "Daoist, that joke isn't funny. You're the Sect Master of the Wayless Sect, and what am I, Heavenly Dao?" Zhou Lin burst into laughter, thinking Chu Yuan's claim was too exaggerated. As his words fell. Boom!!! A thunderbolt ripped through a clear sky above the firmament, as if the Heavenly Dao was issuing a warning, startling Zhou Lin so badly that he shivered, thinking that the Heavenly Dao had nothing better to do than eavesdrop on his conversation. Seeing Zhou Lin's disbelief, Chu Yuan was at a loss for words and decided to place the Golden Halo around Zhou Lin's neck and see if he would then believe. But then he had a second thought. If he revealed his identity at this moment, when he returned to the Wayless Sect, he would be clearly exposed, wouldn't he? And with no knowledge of when these people might attack, wouldn't that put him in a passive position? Better to go with the flow for now. Secretly blend in, join them on their way to the Wayless Sect, and when they attack, reveal himself as the Sect Master of the Wayless Sect and annihilate this group. Feasible! Thinking this, Chu Yuan looked at Zhou Lin. "Alright, Daoist Zhou, no more joking. Actually, I'm just a guest elder from another sect. I was worried that if I told you, you might think I'm undercover or something, so I didn't say anything. Now that I've said it, it's out there," Chu Yuan said with a smile. "I knew you were joking, Daoist Chu. You're a guest elder from another sect? Why didn't you say so sooner? If you had told us earlier, maybe it could have fostered friendly relations between the two forces. May I ask, Daoist Chu, which sect do you belong to?" Zhou Lin seemed unconcerned. "Which sect... It's probably best to leave that matter unsaid. Daoist Zhou, let's focus on the task at hand first. It's more important to raise the morale of these disciples." Chu Yuan planned to brush it off. Name a sect? He had no idea about any sects. It was simpler to just gloss over it. Zhou Lin didn't really take notice. Hearing Chu Yuan say this, he moved on, asking Chu Yuan to speak later to boost the troops' morale. Chu Yuan nodded in agreement. After Zhou Lin's speech, Chu Yuan really did take the stage to deliver a speech. And he loudly shouted the line "Down with the Wayless Sect". His shout was more enthusiastic and resounding than anyone else's, as if he were proving his deep enmity towards the "Wayless Sect." He successfully boosted the morale. Countless disciples of Haoran Academy joined in the chanting, Down with the Wayless Sect... someone named Chu, undercover success...
