Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

Chapter 368: Chapter 387: Is Someone Targeting My Tianyan Sect?

Tianyan Sect, Deputy Sect Master’s Hall.

A middle-aged man clad in a golden robe stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at several Elders beneath him. He didn’t speak, yet the authority belonging to the Sect Master weighed heavily upon those Elders.

“Speak up.”

“Why did the Heavenly Boat crash into the Ancestral Master Hall.”

The middle-aged man, ‘Xuanji Sect Master,’ watched these Elders with an icy gaze, his tone filled with anger.

Heavens know how frustrated he was.

He had hit a bottleneck in his cultivation.

He was about to break through this bottleneck in one go when, out of nowhere, a Heavenly Boat came crashing down.

His bottleneck suddenly blew up and vanished without a trace.

His mana had even regressed a bit.

How could the Xuanji Sect Master not be furious after such an incident?

It was a disaster that had come from the blue.

“Sect Master, we are not clear about this either, the Heavenly Boat belonged to Elder Song. We saw it was Elder Song’s Heavenly Boat and didn’t meddle any further, who would have known that Elder Song would actually crash into the Ancestral Master Hall.”

An Elder explained tremblingly.

“Where is Elder Song now?”

Xuanji Sect Master asked with a cold face.

“He has fallen, perished in the explosion. However, it seems he wasn’t injured by the explosion; rather, it looked as though Elder Song took his own life.”

Another Elder voiced a response.

“Are there any survivors?”

Xuanji Sect Master asked another question.

The several Elders exchanged glances with each other, all falling silent.

A moment passed.

Then, one Elder stepped forward.@@novelbin@@

“Sect Master, there is only one survivor. According to what the survivor said, it seems that Elder Song suddenly took control of the Heavenly Boat’s core and then gave the command to crash it down.”

The Elder reported this.

“Hmm?? Aren’t there usually hundreds of Disciples inside a Heavenly Boat? What were those Disciples doing? Just eating?!”

Xuanji Sect Master’s eyes widened with some anger in his voice.

“Those Disciples… it’s said that Elder Song destroyed the control core, and with the boat’s speed being too fast, they couldn’t react, so they didn’t make any moves.”

The Elder replied in a low voice.

“So who is going to pay for this?!”

Xuanji Sect Master said with a bitter laugh.

Elder Song had perished.

Most of the Disciples had perished too.

So no one was going to take responsibility?

So the matter of his being disturbed would just be forgotten??

Upon hearing these words.

Which of those Elders dared to respond?

Each of them lowered their heads, not daring to say a word.

If they spoke up at this time, and the Sect Master made them responsible, wouldn’t they be wronged?

That’s why they were dead set on keeping silent.

Seeing this, Xuanji Sect Master understood the Elders’ thoughts. With a fierce wave of his sleeve, he said,

“Enough, all of you may leave. Rebuild the Ancestral Master Hall quickly and cover up this incident.”

Xuanji Sect Master snorted coldly, having nothing more to say.

“Yes, Sect Master!”

The several Elders upon hearing this.

Hurriedly made their exit, not daring to say anything else.

Xuanji Sect Master watched the Elders leave and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Elder Song, for no reason, piloted a Heavenly Boat into the Sect and then committed suicide…

Why did he feel that there was something strange about this?

Everything inside and out exuded a mysterious air.

“Could it be that someone is targeting our Tianyan Sect?”

A thought surfaced in the Xuanji Sect Master’s mind.

But it had barely emerged when he dismissed it.

Now their Tianyan Sect was considered a Half-step Holy Land, only a step away from becoming a true Holy Land.

“`

The Sects below the Holy Land dared not offend them.

Those from the real Holy Lands looked down on them and could not be bothered with them at all.

Inside Zhongzhou, who would have the time to scheme against them?

“I might be overthinking this.”

The Xuanji Sect Master shook his head and did not think any more of it.

…

Elsewhere.

Several Elders walked out of the hall.

As they walked, they were still talking.

“Phew, I thought the Sect Master was going to pick one of us to take the blame. I was scared to death, but I didn’t expect the Sect Master not to make us take the fall.”

“Right, I was afraid the Sect Master would choose me, and I ducked my head so low it almost touched the ground.”

“Tell me, what exactly is going on with this matter? It’s too strange, isn’t it? Elder Song just took his own life out of the blue, and I remember he was perfectly fine when he left.”

“Could it be that Elder Song discovered that thing about his dao companion and myself?”

“Huh??? What did you do?”

“It’s nothing much, just invited Elder Song’s dao companion for a joint training session outside, nothing happened between us, so why would Elder Song become so extreme…”

The Elders felt it was incredibly unbelievable.

They never expected serious Elder Song to do something so extreme.

He had directly steered the Heavenly Boat to crash into the Ancestral Master Hall and then committed suicide.

The Elders exited the hall, ready to part ways.

All of a sudden, they froze, standing still in place.

Their gaze turned toward the front.

In front of them, many Disciples were walking back and forth busily.

Everything seemed normal at first glance…

But the Elders felt something was off.

They could not put their finger on it.

It just felt like there was something odd about these Disciples.

“Have you noticed it too?”

Suddenly, one Elder spoke up first.

“Yeah, why do I feel there is something strange about these Disciples?”

Another Elder voiced out.

The other Elders felt the same way.

An Elder stepped forward, his figure shadowy like a ghost, and quickly reached a Disciple, patting the Disciple’s shoulder.

The Disciple turned around, glanced at the Elder, recognized the Elder’s status, and quickly saluted.

“Disciple pays respects to the Elder! May I ask if the Elder needs anything from this Disciple?”

The Disciple asked repeatedly.

“You… Do you feel unwell at all?”

The Elder asked with a frown.

“This Disciple is quite well, Elder. Is something the matter?”

The Disciple looked at the Elder strangely.

“Nothing’s wrong? That’s good then, perhaps I was mistaken.”

The Elder’s expression was peculiar as he sized up the Disciple from head to toe but indeed noticed nothing amiss.

This Elder shook his head.

He also did not understand why, looking at these Disciples, he would feel so weird.

He turned to speak to the other Elders, about to say something.

But abruptly, his eyes widened in shock.

Then he scrutinized the other Elders over and over again.

In the time it took to turn his head, he found his fellow Elders equally strange.

The feeling was the same as when he looked at the Disciples.

So weird…

“Could it be my eyes are the problem?”

The Elder involuntarily harbored doubts, rubbing his eyes hard as if something was wrong with his eyesight.

Just as he was about to raise his hand.

Suddenly, he shook all over, his eyes revealing a vacant look.

Afterward, like a puppet, the Elder turned and left to attend to his own affairs.

In that moment, the entire Sect seemed to be under the manipulation of an invisible pair of hands…
