Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

Chapter 237 The Peculiar Baize

Upon the vast island.

After meeting Ye Luo and the others, Chu Yuan, despite his dissatisfaction with the reward, did not want to show his displeasure in front of his disciples.

After all, these treasures were won by the efforts of these disciples.

Treating these disciples well was also necessary.

After giving the disciples ample encouragement,

Chu Yuan let Ao Yu transform into a dragon and carry them away.

Under Chu Yuan's watchful gaze, Ao Yu dared not utter a word of refusal, nor did he dare explain that he was not a mount.

He could only silently tell himself it was the last time.

And he used the movement techniques of a Guardian Beast from a Hidden Sect to console himself.

Even though Ao Yu was reluctant, he still transformed into Canglong and flew away with Chu Yuan and the others.

Chu Yuan and his group immediately set off, heading beyond Zhongzhou.

Chu Yuan and his entourage moved with great speed.

They had already departed before the competition rankings were officially announced.

When the competition rankings finally came out,

many Holy Land Masters wanted to take this opportunity to visit Chu Yuan.

But they had no such chance.

The Holy Land Masters hadn't arrived yet,

and Chu Yuan had already left. When the Holy Land Masters wanted to visit and learned that Chu Yuan had departed, they had no choice but to leave as well.

In less than an hour,

the vast island quieted down.

All the Holy Land Masters had left.

Without Chu Yuan, the vast island no longer held anything to attract them.

They naturally wouldn't stay here.

Inside the attic.

Wu Yue shook his head helplessly as he looked at the surrounding emptiness.

"These people came for Senior Chu. As soon as Senior Chu left, they all dispersed."

"Tsk, it's better this way. With them around, we had to tread carefully. It's better that they're gone."

"But what did Senior Chu mean by his words, 'Above the heavens of mist, Wu Dao Sect can be seen'?"

Sitting at a table on the first floor, Wu Yue furrowed his brows, deeply puzzled.

"Alliance Hierarch."

Suddenly, an Elder walked in and began to speak.

His voice instantly brought Wu Yue back to reality.

"What's the matter?"

Wu Yue looked up at the Elder.

"Alliance Hierarch, there's significant activity from the several Hidden Sects of Zhongzhou. They've come to us with a message, asking us to coordinate with their actions,"

said the Elder.

"Then coordinate. Can we even object to what the Hidden Sects ask?"

Wu Yue dismissed the issue without looking up.

"Yes, Alliance Hierarch."

The Elder nodded and withdrew to send the reply.

On the other hand, Wu Yue intended to continue pondering Senior Chu's words, but as he thought about it, he suddenly froze.

What?

The Hidden Sects of Zhongzhou are making a big move and asking us to cooperate?

Wu Yue quickly stopped the Elder who was about to leave.

"Wait, wait a moment."

"What did you just say? The Hidden Sects of Zhongzhou are making a big move? What kind of move?"

Wu Yue asked repeatedly.

"Alliance Hierarch, we don't know what the Hidden Sects of Zhongzhou are planning, but we know they are acting in concert. It seems like they are searching for something,"

the Elder replied.

The Elder pondered for a moment before speaking.

"What exactly are we looking for?"

Wu Yue furrowed his brows, stood up, and couldn't quite grasp what the major Zhongzhou Hidden Sects were thinking.

Was it necessary for all the major Hidden Sects to search for something together?

Could it be because of this grand gathering of all sects, which revealed the tokens to open the four ancient relics of Zhongzhou, that these Hidden Sects were stimulated and now wanted to find another one of these tokens?

That didn't seem quite right either.

Even if they truly wanted to find the opening tokens, there was no need for such a public spectacle.

Wouldn't it be better to search quietly?

There was simply no need for such fanfare.

Wu Yue gave it some thought and quickly gave up, as he couldn't possibly fathom the intentions of the Zhongzhou Hidden Sects.

And even if he did guess their intentions, it wouldn't be of any use.

The thoughts of the Zhongzhou Hidden Sects were beyond his control.

"Alright, go on then, everything is fine. If the Zhongzhou Hidden Sects need our cooperation for anything, just go ahead and cooperate," Wu Yue instructed the Elder to leave, then he sat back down at his desk and pondered over Chu Yuan's words.

...

Meanwhile.

Within the territory of Zhongzhou, amidst a vast mountain range.

An invisible pressure enveloped the area.

This pressure was mysterious, bearing no threat but instead offering a comforting sensation. However, it had the ability to restrain the creatures within the mountain range, casting them into slumber.

In a forest within the mountain range.

A peculiar creature stood quietly there.

This creature had the form of a lion, strong and majestic, with a single horn on its head and a face covered with a goat's beard, emitting an auspicious presence.

This creature was none other than the 'Baize' Chu Yuan had mentioned.

At this moment.

Baize raised its head to look at the sky, staring intently in the direction of a massive island, somewhat puzzled.

It seemed to be pondering something.

If one were to draw near, they would hear it speaking human language.

"Who is that person? Why does he know so much?"

"Judging by his realm, he's only in the Foundation Establishment Realm, but for someone from the Foundation Establishment Realm to stand out among those trash at the Tribulation Transcending Stage, he must be no ordinary person."

Baize considered this.

It just couldn't figure it out.

After a while, it shook its body, and a white light flickered over it.

It transformed into a stooped old man with white hair.

"In any case, that person is definitely not simple. It might be worth checking to see exactly what his situation is," the old man that Baize had transformed into muttered.

"But caution is key. The suppression I face from heaven and earth is too strong. Without unleashing my power, my strength has been reduced to that of the Qi Refinement Stage," he clicked his tongue in annoyance.

Being leftovers from another era, creatures like him faced immense rejection from heaven and earth, which constantly suppressed them.

Otherwise, not faced with the suppression from heaven and earth, with his strength, he could wipe out an entire large state with a single thought.

The suppression from heaven and earth was nothing but normal to him.

Under normal circumstances, he should have been able to ascend directly.

However, for some reason, he was unable to embark on the path of Ascension, and so he had to endure the oppression of heaven and earth.

As Baize thought of this, he forcibly countered the rejection from heaven and earth, spreading his Divine Sense out. In an instant, it silently covered the entirety of Zhongzhou, rapidly searching for Chu Yuan's whereabouts.

Not wanting to offend too much, he simply located Chu Yuan and then withdrew his Divine Sense.

"I hope to find out something from this person," he murmured.

"The changes between heaven and earth have been too great; I must understand them before anything else," Baize slightly narrowed his eyes, and with a single movement, left the mountain range, heading towards Chu Yuan's location.

His speed was at times incredibly fast, and at other times as slow as an elderly mortal, bizarre beyond words...
