Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

Within Haoran Academy. In a courtyard. A figure sat cross-legged beneath a large tree, eyes tightly closed as if he were cultivating. Yet curiously, no spiritual energy was being absorbed from around him. This person was none other than Chi Jia, the disciple of Chu Yuan. At this moment, within the confines of a ring worn by Chi Jia. Chu Yuan was observing the outside world. When he saw Chi Jia sitting in meditation again, he immediately felt bored. He was utterly speechless when it came to this disciple of his. Truly, it was nothing but meditation day in, day out. Despite blocking the disciple's absorption of spiritual energy with the Invincible State, he genuinely had no idea what the disciple was meditating on. Originally, Chu Yuan had thought this old man mode would be quite interesting. At least it would be somewhat exciting, right? Who knew it could be so boring? It's not to say that it was really boring. Rather, Chi Jia's temperament was simply too serene. Previously, quite a few people had provoked Chi Jia. Chu Yuan had thought Chi Jia would give them a face-slapping retort, or at least he could be called upon to show some presence. Unexpectedly, Chi Jia paid them no heed at all, didn't show the slightest anger, and walked away as if it were nothing. This surprised Chu Yuan greatly. Such a good-natured disciple. To be ridiculed like that and still remain unangered. A normal person, when mocked in such a manner, might have resorted to violence, right? Or at least given a disdainful glance, wouldn't they? But not this disciple, who behaved as if blind to it all, as if nothing had happened. Such a disciple, what need was there for him to keep a close eye and turn waste into worth? Laissez-faire would suffice. There was simply no need for close supervision. Chu Yuan constantly ridiculed the situation in his mind. He even considered leaving, letting this disciple amuse himself. However, he still retained a final shred of patience and forcefully suppressed the thought, continuing to stay within the ring. But just as Chu Yuan was trying to calm his mind, The disciple Chi Jia, who had been sitting with eyes closed, spoke up. "Respected Master," Chi Jia slowly opened his eyes, looking at the ring on his hand as he spoke. Inside the ring, Chu Yuan, upon hearing Chi Jia speak, Immediately flew out from the ring, landing in the courtyard. Chu Yuan, radiating golden light, was dazzling even during the day. "Ji'er, what is it?" Chu Yuan said with an air of gentle indifference. "Disciple, greets the Respected Master." Chi Jia did not state his business, but stood up and bowed to Chu Yuan, showing great respect. He had known this master, existing within the ring, for some time now. For his Respected Master, he held immense reverence. And he was acutely aware that his Respected Master had always been protecting him. How did he know? Because every time someone ridiculed him, His Respected Master would speak up, asking if he needed help. He had declined every time. But that did not mean he forgot the kindness of his Respected Master. "No need for formalities, Ji'er. What is it? Does your master need to stand up for you?" Chu Yuan asked, hands clasped behind his back. "No, it's not that. I'm just worried that the Respected Master will get bored staying in the ring all the time while I keep meditating. That's why I wanted to ask," Chi Jia said with a warm smile. His smile was very comfortable to behold, Not the scholarly type like Zhang Han's, but a casual one that was pleasing to the eye. "Bored? Your master has walked this path for countless years, witnessed the passage of numerous people. How could I be bored by such things?" Chu Yuan shook his head. Even though he felt bored himself, he still upheld his persona. Claiming to be not bored at all. "Respected Master..." Chi Jia still wanted to say something. But before he could finish, Whoosh! Sudden gusts of wind came rushing from afar. As the wind blew over, Chu Yuan, Chi Jia, and the others felt no impact, only a slight coolness. However, after the wind arrived, Chi Jia and Chu Yuan's gazes naturally fell upon the distant firmament. With their eyesight, They could see what seemed to be several beams of light rising from far away, but they were too distant, barely visible as a few tiny specks. "Respected Master, that seems to be the direction of Jade State? What has happened there?" Chi Jia asked. Jade State was just a large state away from Haoran Academy, quite close indeed. Upon hearing this, Chu Yuan immediately used his Invincible State to take a quick glance towards Jade State. He vaguely saw a chessboard covering the entire large state? He didn't look long, turning to answer Chi Jia. "It's nothing serious, probably just some powerful beings battling," Chu Yuan gestured with his hand as he spoke. Seeing it was a powerful battle, he involuntarily thought of his own lair. After the last great battle, although it was eventually stopped by many disciples, he was unsure what losses his sect had suffered. He really wanted to go back and check. Why not head back and have a look? Feasible. He should be gone only for a while, this disciple probably couldn't stir up any trouble. Surely he couldn't expect the disciple to have succeeded in just a few days of his absence? It couldn't possibly be that fast, that easy. "Ji'er, your teacher might have some matters to attend to for a while and will have to leave. Can you take care of yourself?" Chu Yuan finally couldn't resist and spoke up. "You're leaving, Respected Master?" Chi Jia was momentarily stunned. "Correct, but rest assured, your teacher will only be gone for a short time, a few days at least, maybe half a month at most before I return," Chu Yuan nodded and said. "If that's the case, then alright." Chi Jia didn't say much but nodded, acknowledging he understood. "Hmm, Ji'er, I have already sorted out your safety precautions. Inside your ring, there is some pure energy stored. If you encounter an invincible foe, just open the ring completely and throw that energy at them, and it will surely be enough to kill the enemy!" Chu Yuan, pointing at the ring on Chi Jia's hand, said. Inside that ring was all the Spiritual Energy he had absorbed on regular days, combined with the energy from his Invincible State. Merged together, He himself didn't quite know what he had created. But it should be more than enough to kill an enemy. "Understood, Respected Master," Chi Jia nodded and glanced at the ring on his hand. Seeing this, Chu Yuan gave a few more instructions to Chi Jia, then got up and left. Chi Jia watched Chu Yuan's departing figure, falling into deep thought. No one knew what he was thinking about. After a good while, he came back to his senses. He prepared to continue meditating under the tree. Just at that moment, Someone suddenly knocked on the gate of his courtyard. Knock knock knock... "Chi Jia, open the door!" A crisp voice called from outside the courtyard. "The door isn't locked, come in," Chi Jia looked up at the doorway and immediately said. Creak... The next moment, a woman in green clothes came through the door, carrying a scroll in her hand. "Chi Jia, here are the Buddhist scriptures you wanted. I've found them all for you; they're all right here..."
