Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

Inside the palace.

Murmurs of discussion rose one after another.

"Why hasn't the All Sects Conference started yet? We've been sitting here for quite a while."

"I don't know either, but do you dare complain?"

"So what if I have complaints? All of us here are masters of our own holy lands; if we have complaints, then so be it. No need to fear offending anyone!"

"Poor Dao has heard some news—it seems that the Hidden Sect of the East State hasn't taken their seats yet, so all of us have been waiting. If you have any complaints, go find that East State Hidden Sect."

In the hall, numerous Sect Master-level figures were conversing, puzzled about why the All Sects Conference had not yet commenced.

Some of these high-level individuals already knew the reason and spoke up about it directly.

Upon learning the real cause,

the hall suddenly quieted down.

No one dared to say anything more.

Have a complaint against a Hidden Sect?

Only if they were extremely idle would they bother to find fault with a Hidden Sect.

Especially the East State's Hidden Sect, which was exceedingly mystical.

It had never been recorded in ancient texts.

Mystical, ancient.

That was the only impression these people had of the East State Hidden Sect.

They certainly wouldn't dare to form a grievance with the East State Hidden Sect over such a trivial matter.

Meanwhile, Chu Yuan was sitting at the end of a table and he too had heard the conversations of these people.

Their discussions had left him utterly confused as well.

The East State Hidden Sect?

Could it be that the hidden sect from the East State would also attend this All Sects Conference?

Chu Yuan vaguely remembered riding on the coattails of the East State Hidden Sect two or three times.

But surely, that East State Hidden Sect wouldn't know about it.

After pondering for a while, Chu Yuan still felt uneasy.

He turned to look at the elder Zhuang Shu beside him.

"Elder Zhuang,"

Chu Yuan began to speak.

"Daoist Chu, what's the matter?"

Even though Zhuang Shu had a very poor impression of Chu Yuan, his face still wore a smile.

To consider someone unsuitable for deep interaction was one thing.

But it was still necessary to maintain the proprieties of social conduct.

After all, one doesn't strike the smiling face that reaches out for a handshake.

"Elder Zhuang, do you know exactly what this Hidden Sect from the East State is?"

Chu Yuan asked with a smile.

Upon hearing this,

Zhuang Shu was taken aback.

This person was probably just barely qualified to attend the All Sects Conference.

Asking about a Hidden Sect?

He must be trying to ingratiating himself, right?
Experience more tales on empire

Such people are really not worth associating with deeply!

Not only are they secretive, but they also always think about ingratiating themselves!!

"I don't know, but you'd better not even think about it. Sects like those hidden ones are far beyond our reach. Not to mention reaching them, we can't even meet them."

"Their level is just to be marveled at from afar. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

Zhuang Shu rolled his eyes and spoke in a rather unpleasant tone.

Chu Yuan, who was sitting, felt somewhat perplexed.

Wasn't he just asking for a bit of information?

Why was he met with a response full of things he couldn't understand?

Boom...

Suddenly, a sound akin to the ringing of a bell echoed throughout the hall.

All present couldn't help but be invigorated.

They instinctively cast their gazes toward the steps.

They saw Wu Yue descending the steps with several people in tow.

Seeing Wu Yue and the individuals following him, those in the hall all stood up.

"The Cultivators' Alliance Leader, Wu Yue? This guy is often as elusive as a mystical dragon, only showing its head and not its tail. In the past, even if it was the All Sects Conference, it was the Vice-Leader who presided over it. This time he's actually presiding over the All Sects Conference in person, tsk tsk, quite a rarity."

"What's so special about Wu Yue? You should be looking at the few people behind Wu Yue. The representatives from the Five Great Hidden Sects of Zhongzhou actually all showed up."

"Hiss... with a stomp from these people, even the whole Zhongzhou would shake, right?"

"What are they doing coming down here?!"

As the people stood up, they also communicated with each other through voice transmission.

Chu Yuan, glancing at the people standing up in the hall, subconsciously also stood up.

On the other side.

Wu Yue descended with a few people.

His gaze fixed on everyone seated at the tables on both sides.

He swept his eyes across them row by row.

He was also somewhat anxious at heart.

He had already received the news.

The Sect Master of the East State Hidden Sect had arrived.

And had already entered the great hall.

But Wu Yue had not seen him at all.

So he speculated that perhaps the East State Hidden Sect Master had gone to the seating area for the ordinary Holy Land Masters.

That's why he hurried down to search.

Wu Yue's eyes frantically scanned the people at the tables on both sides, trying to locate the Sect Master of the East State Hidden Sect.

He had visited the person before and of course remembered how they looked.

But as he searched, he couldn't find the individual.

When he reached the very end of the last row,

Wu Yue stopped, his eyes lighting up.

Finally, he had found the person he was looking for.

The very last table at the end of the last row... Chu Yuan!

After clearly seeing Chu Yuan,

Wu Yue heaved a sigh of relief.

And he even wanted to grumble a bit in his heart.

The seating arrangement for the All Sects Conference was based on Sects' power and hierarchical positions.

Above and below the steps marked a watershed.

And the front-to-back arrangement was another ranking.

The Sect Master of the East State Hidden Sect actually had such an odd sense of humor.

To sit at the very last table in the last row.

Doesn't that imply the Hidden Sect of the East State is the weakest?

But if the Hidden Sect of the East State is weak, then what does that make all the other Sects above and below the steps?

Wu Yue just took it as, this was Sect Master Chu's odd sense of humor.

"Sect Master Chu!! How did you end up here?"

Wu Yue approached Chu Yuan and spoke helplessly.

"You are? Alliance Master Wu?"

Chu Yuan was momentarily stunned,

then he quickly came to his senses,

remembering who the person was.

The man in front of him had visited him before, so he remembered him.

"Yes, yes, Sect Master Chu, you shouldn't be sitting here. Please come with me to the top, the All Sects Conference is about to begin."

Wu Yue hurriedly said.

"Go up? Go up where?"

Chu Yuan asked, bewildered.

"Go up the steps, of course. You, as the Sect Master of the Daoless Sect from the East State Hidden Sect, shouldn't be seated here. Quickly, quickly, come with me up there,"

Wu Yue said.

Chu Yuan: "?"

East State Hidden Sect Master?

Me?

I am the East State Hidden Sect Master??
