Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

Chapter 372: Chapter 391 Searching

East State is located at the far eastern reaches of the Divinity Continent, west to Yun State, with the Endless Ocean on its east; its geographical location is not considered advantageous.

Also, due to East State’s unfavorable position coupled with a lack of deep fortune, no significant power has ever emerged from its history.

Such reasons have contributed to East State’s reputation as a secluded and minor state.

However, this was only the case before the emergence of the Wayless Sect.

After the emergence of the Wayless Sect,

East State changed.

Especially after the birth of the Taiyi Sword Sect, East State’s development became extraordinarily rapid, and in just less than three years, it surpassed the majority of larger states.

Given East State’s current trend,

with just a bit more time, even surpassing Zhongzhou is possible.

But it might take a very long time.

After all, the cultural heritage of Zhongzhou is far beyond what East State can compare.

…

On the coast of East State.

At this moment, high above in the firmament,

Chu Yuan flew to this place, surrounded by golden light, he looked down at the coastline, somewhat puzzled.

Could people live on this coastline?

In Chu Yuan’s line of sight,

there was no beach.

Instead, there were chunks of pitch-black rocks.

These rocks were scattered along the coastline, battered relentlessly by the waves.

Without even a beach to speak of, the question of habitation was even more distant.

“Why does this coastline look like this?”

Chu Yuan stood above in the firmament, murmuring softly to himself.

In Chu Yuan’s imagination,

shouldn’t a beach be sunny and bright, with many people sunbathing and swimming on the sand?

Or at the very least, there should be plenty of fishing boats catching fish, right?

Why was this coastline so desolate?

Chu Yuan found it very strange.

He bent slightly and flew down a bit more, wanting to get a clearer view.

A little further down,

Chu Yuan saw more clearly.

The rocks along the shore resembled reefs but also didn’t.

It seemed there were some markings on them.

Chu Yuan carefully scanned the area.

But still, he saw nothing of note.

There wasn’t a trace of human activity.

Not even mortals.

It was too quiet.

“Could Mo Yin the Elder really be here?”

Chu Yuan frowned slightly.

He didn’t understand.

This place didn’t look like it was inhabited at all.

“Well then, let’s go further inside and ask around to see if anyone knows what’s going on with this coastline.”

Chu Yuan stayed silent for a moment.

He rose and flew inland, hoping to find some mortals to learn about the situation on the coast.

Chu Yuan swiftly flew inward.

Above the coastline were all forests.

It didn’t look like a place where people lived at all.

He flew straight ahead.@@novelbin@@

After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Chu Yuan finally found human traces.

It was a village built in the midst of the forest.

Chu Yuan immediately flew towards the village.

When Chu Yuan descended upon this village, it immediately caught the attention of many villagers.

In their eyes, Chu Yuan, with numerous golden lights swirling around him, dressed in white, with his long hair fluttering, approached by walking on air, looking like an extraordinary Immortal.

Seeing Chu Yuan, the villagers did not hesitate for a moment, and promptly knelt on the ground, calling out to the Immortal.

“Everyone, stand up. Where is your village chief? Have him come to see me,” Chu Yuan said, looking up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle, hands clasped behind his back, an inexplicable aura emerging from him.

“Imm… Immortal Master, I am the village chief. May I know what commands you have…”

An elderly villager, trembling and unsteady, came out, very frightened.

Cultivators reigned above mortals.

In the Mortal Realm, there were no lack of evil cultivators who would slaughter entire villages.

This elder was afraid.

Afraid that Chu Yuan had come to massacre their village.

“Village chief, I’ve come with no malicious intent, I merely wish to understand something about the situation on the coast. Do you know anything about it?”

Chu Yuan asked calmly.

“The coast? Immortal Master, what is it that you wish to know?”

Upon hearing Chu Yuan bore no ill will, the village chief breathed a sigh of relief, though he was still perplexed by Chu Yuan’s question.

What could there be at the coast?

“Whatever you know about the coast, feel free to share.”

Chu Yuan said, gesturing with his hand.

“Ah? Immortal Master, the coast… isn’t the coast just the coast? Is there something there?”

The village chief spoke, still muddled.

“Why is there no one on the coast?”

For a moment, Chu Yuan wasn’t sure how to continue his inquiry.

But he managed to pose the question.

“Immortal Master, why should there be anyone on the coast? There are no fish in the sea, nor anything else there. There’s nothing along the coast that can provide benefit to us mortals. Why should there be anyone there?”

The village chief scratched his head, utterly perplexed.

Hearing this,

Chu Yuan was stunned.

There was nothing at the coast, and thus it was indeed devoid of people for that very reason.

He regretted thinking the coast held some secret worth knowing.

“Then, do you know of someone called Mo Yin the Elder living around the coast here?”

Chu Yuan, with hands behind his back, asked casually.

“Mo Yin the Elder?”

The village chief’s face revealed deep thought; clearly he was trying to recall if such a person existed.

He pondered long and hard.

Then he finally looked back at Chu Yuan.

“Immortal Master, I’m old and some things I don’t remember so clearly. May I first ask the villagers?”

The village chief asked.

“Go and ask.”

Chu Yuan shook his head, indicating for the village chief to inquire.

He stood there quietly waiting for the village chief to ask around.

The village chief, leaning on his staff, took one step at a time towards the villagers, asking each one in turn.

After quite a while,

The village chief returned.

“Immortal Master, none of us… none of the villagers have ever heard the name Mo Yin the Elder. Maybe this person is a noble cultivator like yourself, which is why we haven’t heard of them,”

The village chief said, his voice trembling as he bowed. He also looked cautiously at Chu Yuan, worried they might be blamed for not having any information.

The village chief kept his eyes on Chu Yuan’s expression.

Only when he saw no sign of anger did he finally relax.

“Alright, if there is no news, then I shall not impose any further. Thank you all for your time. I will take my leave,”

Chu Yuan showed no sign of irritation, nodded gently, and turned to leave.

Mo Yin the Elder was probably someone from the cultivator community.

It was understandable that these mortals had never heard the name; he wouldn’t hold it against them.

Chu Yuan shook his head slightly, his figure slowly rising into the air, planning to take another look at the coast.

Just as he was about to leave,

A child’s naive voice called out to him.

“Immortal Master, I, I think I know Uncle Mo Yin.”

With these words,

The place fell silent for a moment.

The village chief and many villagers, including Chu Yuan, turned their gaze in the direction of the voice.

There, at the edge of a street, a child was clutching a milk jug, sipping from it while calling out to Chu Yuan.

Seeing this,

Chu Yuan couldn’t help but slightly raise his eyebrows.

Did this child know where Mo Yin the Elder was??
