Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

The battle on Misty Mountain quietly came to an end.

Qin Zimo perished.

For the other cultivators, the Daoless Sect did not hold them accountable but instead allowed them to descend the mountain, merely forbidding them from serving the Cultivators Alliance again.

Without Qin Zimo, the Cultivators Alliance had no chance of standing once more.

Considering this, those cultivators naturally hastened to agree.

With the pledges of these cultivators,

it also signified that the vaguely dominant Cultivators Alliance, which was once invincible on Divinity Continent, had officially dissolved.

The dazzling star that was the Cultivators Alliance had become a fleeting presence in the history of Divinity Continent.

At least this generation would remember this power.

However, compared to the brilliance of the Cultivators Alliance,

the existence of the Wayless Sect, known of in legends, was even more shocking.

The surviving cultivators who left Misty Mountain spread this news throughout the land.

When this message was released,

the entire Divinity Continent was thoroughly shaken.

The Daoless Sect has an immortal within!

An immortal who lives!

An immortal surviving among mortals!

And not just one!

This made countless powers and cultivators across Divinity Continent realize,

No wonder the Daoless Sect, when facing the Cultivators Alliance with the corpse of an immortal, remained unruffled...

It turns out there were immortals within their sect!

What's even more chilling upon deep reflection is,

it's said that the Sect Master of the Daoless Sect did not even show his face during this battle.

What does this indicate?

It indicates that they simply did not care, or rather, they never considered this battle worthy of their attention.

Is this the depth of the Daoless Sect's heritage?

After this battle, the Daoless Sect's status was completely affirmed.

A legendary status!

A position above all!

No longer would any power on Divinity Continent dare to challenge the Daoless Sect.

The forces that were previously subtly provoking the sacred lands of the Daoless Sect's disciples all retreated, choosing to avoid confrontation in light of these disciples' expanding power.

Daring not to provoke the forces related to the disciples of the Daoless Sect,

Or rather, not daring to provoke the Daoless Sect itself.

Even avoiding the slightest karmic tie, they were unwilling.

...

Just as the Cultivators Alliance vanished into the long river of time,

At the gates of Haoran Academy in Jingzhou,

The disciples of Haoran Academy were packing their luggage, gathering at the entrance in preparation to set off.

This packing took a whole half-month.

And they hadn't moved a step outside.

According to the headmaster Zhou Lin,

This full-scale departure of the academy certainly required thorough preparation.

And so this preparation took half a month.

Next to the gate of Haoran Academy, on a large rock,

Chu Yuan stood with his arms crossed over his chest, standing quietly with his gaze lowered, seemingly in thought.

"Daoist Chu."

A voice came from afar.

Chu Yuan, who was standing there, immediately snapped back to reality and turned his head to look over.

He saw Zhou Lin coming over, nodding slightly toward Chu Yuan as a greeting.

"Daoist Zhou, are we able to depart now?"

Chu Yuan took a deep breath and asked.

Heaven knows how bored he was.

Standing here for half a month.

Doing nothing.

"Not yet, but soon, very soon," Zhou Lin said, smiling.

Chu Yuan: "..."

This was the twenty-third time he had asked.

It was also the twenty-third time Zhou Lin had replied.

He inexplicably felt that he had seen this scene somewhere before.

But he could not remember.

"Enough of that, what about the Demonic Qi? Has it taken form yet?"

Chu Yuan waved his hand, speaking in irritation.

"Right, I almost forgot to mention, Daoist Chu, your Demonic Qi is going to take form in the next two days."

Zhou Lin looked up and said.

"It's going to take form in the next two days? Where is that Demonic Qi now?"

Chu Yuan asked repeatedly.

"I have already extracted the Demonic Qi, it is now in your courtyard, Daoist Chu can see it when you return. If you're anxious, why not go have a look right now?"

Zhou Lin said this.

"It's in my courtyard? Good, I'll go have a look right now… Wait, go back now? Shouldn't I be setting out immediately to deal with the Daoless Sect?"

Chu Yuan paused for a moment.

Go back now?

Wasn't the plan to set out and join the main force?

"Why such rush, Daoist Chu? Do you perhaps have some grievances with the Daoless Sect?"

Zhou Lin was startled.

He, as an academy director, wasn't in a hurry,

so why was Chu Yuan, a Guest Elder, so anxious?

It truly was as the saying goes.

The emperor isn't worried, yet the eunuch is.

"There's no personal enmity, but I cannot stand idly by as the Wayless Sect commits atrocities! Who would tolerate that? We must strike them hard! I want to quickly rendezvous with the main force and then I'll lead the vanguard! I must annihilate the Wayless Sect!"

Chu Yuan spoke with righteous indignation.

It was as if he would never rest until the Wayless Sect was destroyed.

"Daoist Chu, one must be responsible for their words, we cultivators must be careful about what we say. When has the Wayless Sect ever done nothing but evil? How come I am unaware of it?"

"The Wayless Sect is a place that fellow cultivators should revere and respect. This talk of subjugation and punishment is unfounded!"

Zhou Lin gestured dismissively and turned to face the direction of East State, giving a long bow with a respectful expression on his face.

"What, what??"

Chu Yuan was stunned.

He couldn't figure out what was going on with Zhou Lin.

They had just agreed,

to launch an attack against the Wayless Sect.

And yet, why did he suddenly start acting like a bootlicker?

Had he been fed some kind of mind-altering potion?

Zhou Lin, noticing Chu Yuan's bewildered look,

seemed to realize something, glanced around, and then approached Chu Yuan, starting to whisper cautiously.

"Daoist Chu, I'm not speaking nonsense. In the future, when you mention the Wayless Sect, you must show respect too, otherwise if we get settled with accounts after the fall, we are done for."

Zhou Lin whispered in a low voice.

"What do you mean by settled with accounts after the fall???"

Chu Yuan was even more confused.

"Oh, Daoist Chu, you might not have received the news. You see, the Cultivators Alliance has been defeated, the Wayless Sect has won. The battle is over. We are considered part of the Cultivators Alliance and are worried about being targeted for retribution by the Wayless Sect later on, so we still have to play the part."

Zhou Lin spoke with caution.

While speaking, he kept looking around as if afraid of being overheard.

Hearing this, Chu Yuan's eyes bulged.

The battle is over?

He had missed the battle entirely while playing the spy?

How did it end?

His Sect had only two dragons left, one chef, one baby, and one crippled disciple.

How could it end like this?

"Zhou Lin, do you know how it ended?"

Chu Yuan took a deep breath and asked.

He truly felt bewildered.

He was still standing at the entrance of Haoran Academy.

And the battle is already over?

"I heard that there are several living immortals within the Daoless Sect! Those Immortals took action and easily swept away the Cultivators Alliance!"

Zhou Lin shared the details with Chu Yuan.

Upon hearing that, Chu Yuan fell silent.

Immortals within the Daoless Sect?

How come he, as the Sect Master, wasn't aware of this?
