Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

The attic, the third floor.

At this moment.

The representatives of the Zhongzhou Hidden Sects had their eyes firmly fixed on Chu Yuan's side.

To be precise, they were staring at Lin Bu, the Holy Land Master of Wuji.

Ever since Lin Bu took out that jade-green token, their gaze had not left him.

All of them were swept by a surge of shock and awe.

They had all recognized the origin of the token.

It was rumored that in Zhongzhou, there were four relics from ancient times left, each containing various treasures and legacies of that era.

The contents within a single relic were coveted enough to cause all the grand Zhongzhou Hidden Sects to scramble and fight over it.

So far, only two of these relics had been opened, and their contents had been divided between these major Zhongzhou Hidden Sects.

The tokens to open the other two relics were something they had been searching for all along.

But turning Zhongzhou upside down, they hadn't found them.

Unexpectedly, it was a classic case of not seeing what lay beneath one's nose; these sanctuaries, which were always seeking favor with the Hidden Sects, actually possessed a token for the relics.

The few of them were fixated on Lin Bu.

If it weren't for their regard for Chu Yuan,

they might have already made a move to pin Lin Bu to the ground.

Sitting next to Chu Yuan, Lin Bu also couldn't help but lean a bit closer to Chu Yuan after seeing this, swallowing nervously.

As soon as he presented that spirit stone, he knew.

If Senior Chu weren't shielding him, he would be finished.

"Ahem, Senior Chu, are you satisfied with this compensation?"

Lin Bu hastily spoke to Chu Yuan.

"Not bad."

Chu Yuan nodded his head, his tone carrying a note of approval.

"Then, Senior, could I possibly ask you for a favor?"

Lin Bu hastily spoke again.

With those words,

the slight smile on Chu Yuan's face disappeared in the next moment.

Just wondering how there could be someone so foolish and rich.

Casually giving away a token made from what looked to be a top-grade spirit stone.

Turns out, he actually had a favor to ask...

Perhaps... Should he give back the token?

No!

How could he possible return something that had come into his hands?

Chu Yuan had no choice but to brace himself and look towards Lin Bu.

"What favor?"

Chu Yuan inquired.

"Senior Chu, our sect has encountered some irresistible factors recently, and cannot continue to stand tall, so we wish to leave Zhongzhou. I mean to say, we want to move to the East State. What do you think, Senior?"

Lin Bu asked shamelessly.

"You mean to say, you want to move to the East State?"

Chu Yuan was startled for a moment, somewhat taken aback.

If you want to go, then just go.

Why ask me?

Is the East State mine to give?

"Yes, Senior Chu, what do you think about it?"

Lin Bu pressed eagerly.

"Well... then just go."

Chu Yuan was taken aback, and said offhandedly.

After all, the East State wasn't his to control; if the other party wanted to go in, could he even stop them?

What Chu Yuan didn't know was.

As soon as his words fell,

Lin Bu breathed a sigh of relief.

The several representatives of the Hidden Sect next to him could only gnash their teeth in secret. Discover exclusive tales at My Virtual Library Empire

In their eyes, the East State was undoubtedly the home ground of the Wayless Sect.

To enter the East State openly, one would have to gain the consent of the Wayless Sect.

And now, Senior Chu's words were like an agreement for Wuji Holy Land to enter the East State, and by saying this in front of them, wasn't that acknowledging the relationship between Wuji Holy Land and the Wayless Sect?

This also implies that the Wayless Sect has got Wuji Holy Land covered, doesn't it...

If they decided to settle scores with Wuji Holy Land, they would have to consider the existence of the Wayless Sect...

However, given the function of that token, it's only too normal for Senior Chu to be tempted; no one can blame him for that.

The only ones to blame are themselves for being blind and getting played in the dark right under their noses.

Thinking of this, the expressions on several people's faces turned a bit ugly, but it wasn't appropriate for them to say anything.

All they could do was glower.

And feel a tremendous headache.

They hadn't even resolved the matter of providing each disciple with a Superior Spiritual Treasure.

Now another issue had arisen.

One of the representatives from the Zhongzhou Hidden Sect couldn't hold back any longer and stood up from his desk.

"Lin Bu, this is the third floor; it's not a place for you to linger! Having a few words with Senior Chu is already your limit, do you really expect to continue staying here?" he said, barely suppressing his anger.

"Yes, yes, yes, Senior Chu, then I shall take my leave now and revisit you later."

Lin Bu, looking at the representatives of the Zhongzhou Hidden Sect, seemingly understood that his actions had upset these people. With a beaming smile, he left the third floor.

Chu Yuan, sitting at the desk, watched Lin Bu depart and squinted his eyes, his mood suddenly brightened.

Is it really this easy for him to give away such a valuable token to me?

All I did was ask if it's possible to move to East State?

Chu Yuan couldn't help but chuckle.

The several Zhongzhou Hidden Sect representatives exchanged glances and then nodded slightly to each other.

Suddenly, smiles began to appear on their faces.

"Er, Senior, that thing you just received... *cough cough*, are you still in need of people?" one of them asked, his smile stiff as he stood up.

Upon hearing this,

Chu Yuan paused.

In need of people?

A token made of spirit stone, what did he need people for? Was it to play a game of whoever sees it gets a share? That would be too much.

He was a fake Hidden Sect Master, was it so unreasonable for him to need money?

For all these real sects to be in need of money, that would truly be unreasonable.

But could he distribute all the spirit stones he'd obtained? Of course not.

Someone named Chu thought it was completely impossible.

"No need."

Chu Yuan flatly and decisively refused.

The others seemed to have anticipated this; though helpless upon hearing Chu Yuan's response, they had nothing more to say.

If an ordinary person obtained that token, they would definitely have pressured them with the might of the Zhongzhou Hidden Sects.

Even if the pressure failed, they could have forced the person to divide the ruins equally with their Hidden Sect.

But dealing with the Wayless Sect...

The Wayless Sect clearly wanted to have the entire 'cake' to themselves.

Was there anything they could do?

This matter would have to be handled by the various Sect Masters.

Thinking this, they used their respective sects' secret methods to relay the events back to their sects.

Seeing that the others had fallen silent, Chu Yuan finally relaxed a bit.

Just at that moment,

A deacon from the Cultivators Alliance brought in a list.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, Senior Chu, this round of competition is about to end. We've prepared the list for the next round in advance; the next round will decide the top thousand participants. Please review the list, and if there are no objections, we will announce it publicly."

He said cautiously.

As he spoke, he divided the list into several copies and delivered them to Chu Yuan and the others.

Chu Yuan took only a cursory glance; seeing that all four of his disciples were on the list, he was relieved.

None of the disciples were eliminated.

It looked like the battle between Su Qianyuan and Ye Wu was judged in Su Qianyuan's favor.

These four disciples would at least reach the top thousand.

The rewards for reaching the top thousand were quite substantial.

Thinking of those rewards, Chu Yuan could not help but reveal a slight smile on his lips. Then, he handed the list back to the deacon, indicating he had no objections.

The others did the same one after another.

Seeing their response, the deacon finally excused himself...
