Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

Within the borders of the Mortal 'Great Zhou' Dynasty.

Outside Silver Moon City stretched a queue into the city like a mighty dragon.

Chu Yuan led Zhang Han to stand within the line as well.

Gazing at the seemingly endless queue.

Zhang Han felt bewildered.

Entering the city required lining up to pay, which was a rule of Mortals.

Why would Cultivators need to follow these rules?

Most Cultivators arriving at a Mortal city would directly fly into it.

"Respected Master, why don't we just fly into the city directly?"

Zhang Han asked, puzzled.

Upon hearing this,

Chu Yuan turned his head and gave Zhang Han a stern look.

If he still had his Cultivation Levels, and had come alone, he would certainly have flown in directly without any hesitation.

But bringing Zhang Han was a different matter.

If it were just him, he would have had no money to pay all sorts of fees; bringing a disciple, and not to exploit the disciple, would that even be him?

Moreover, this disciple was the prime culprit behind his backstabbing.

It might not be possible to deeply exploit the disciple.

But to trick him over something minor was quite simple.

However, these thoughts were just thoughts.

He couldn't possibly voice them out loud.

Otherwise, this disciple who liked to act innocent might just rebel.

Chu Yuan stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his demeanor light as clouds and breeze.

"Han'er, the path of Cultivation originally diverges from the Mortal realm, and sometimes walking amongst Mortals can help one comprehend the true way,"

"When I ask you to queue, it naturally benefits you, so there is no need for further questions,"

Chu Yuan shook his head and said.

"The disciple understands, and I will adhere to the Respected Master's instructions,"

Zhang Han said with an expression of 'understanding,' nodding his head heavily.

Chu Yuan, who stood beside him, was visibly taken aback.

What do you understand??

Just by my few words you understood??

You must be some kind of Monster.

Chu Yuan was tempted to ask Zhang Han what he understood,

but seeing Zhang Han's silent look, he didn't know how to broach the subject and dropped it.

The Master and disciple no longer spoke.

They waited to enter the city.

A full half an hour passed by.

Only then did it come to Chu Yuan and Zhang Han's turn to enter the city.

Zhang Han conscientiously paid the entrance fee.

Both of them entered Silver Moon City.

Chu Yuan led Zhang Han into Silver Moon City, heading straight for the Xianzui Inn.

Before long, they arrived at the front of the Xianzui Inn.

However, Chu Yuan looked at the Xianzui Inn and was greatly surprised.

Having not visited for three months, the inn before him had been completely transformed.

It seemed as if it had been renovated,

appearing much more upscale, and the inn, originally only two stories high, had now added a third floor.

A three-story inn in Silver Moon City stood out as majestic indeed.

"This Shopkeeper must have hired Cultivators to renovate it, right? Such big changes in three months..."

Chu Yuan muttered to himself.

He then proceeded with Zhang Han into the inn.

As soon as they stepped into the inn, a fragrance of sandalwood greeted them, involuntarily clearing their hearts and delighting their minds.

How much money did this Shopkeeper spend to transform the inn into such a state?

This was good, since the inn was larger, the visitor traffic would increase.

The Shopkeeper would undoubtedly be better informed about news.

His visit to the Xianzui Inn this time was specifically to gather information from the Shopkeeper.

The more informed the Shopkeeper was, the better, of course.

As countless thoughts rose in Chu Yuan's mind.

A voice came over.

"Esteemed patron, please come in, please come in! How many are in your party?"

A young waiter approached with a beaming smile, bending over and asking.

"Just the two of us. Where is your shopkeeper?"

Chu Yuan noticed that this waiter looked unfamiliar, probably a new hire.

"Esteemed patron, if you would kindly proceed inside, our shopkeeper is currently settling accounts on the third floor. By the way, do you wish to dine on the first floor or the second?"

The waiter asked with a smile.

"Can't we go to the third floor? Or is it fully booked?"

Chu Yuan arched an eyebrow and asked.

"Not at all, not at all. Esteemed patron, perhaps it has been quite a while since you last visited our Xianzui Inn. Since the inn's renovation, the third floor has been off-limits to guests; only the shopkeeper's honored guests may ascend there. We ask for your understanding."

The waiter quickly explained.

"Do I not count as an honored guest? Go call your shopkeeper down here; he and I are old acquaintances."

Chu Yuan waved his hand dismissively.

Upon hearing this, the waiter hesitated for a moment but then hurried off upstairs to notify the shopkeeper.

Chu Yuan was not in a rush and stood at the entrance, watching the lively scene inside the inn.

His companion, Zhang Han, reacted differently.

Zhang Han was surprised to see his Respected Master, undoubtedly a powerful figure, mingling so naturally among the mortals without any pretense.

His master was surely a formidable force.

Yet he interacted so peacefully amidst the mortal world.

If it were Zhang Han, maintaining a mortal's mindset when facing mortals after growing in strength would be quite unlikely.

He would definitely exhibit a sense of superiority when dealing with the mundane world and perhaps even disdain engaging with it altogether.

Perhaps the way his master was behaving truly epitomized the refinement of heart amidst the red dust of the world...

Zhang Han mused thoughtfully.

Soon, the shopkeeper hurried down from upstairs.

Upon seeing Chu Yuan, he was ecstatic and immediately invited him to the third floor.

Chu Yuan, without saying much, led Zhang Han up to the third floor.

Entering the third floor.

Chu Yuan was slightly surprised by what he saw.

The inn's third floor was more spacious, but there was only one large round table in the center, quite different from the square tables below.

The table was covered with a vibrant yellow cloth, adding a touch of elegance.

This third floor had a touch of a timeless style to it.

The shopkeeper must have spent a considerable sum to create such a space on the third floor.

"Shopkeeper, long time no see. Have you made a fortune? You've renovated the inn like this."

Chu Yuan stepped onto the third floor with a smile and said.

"Not at all, not at all! What fortune are you talking about? The third floor was added especially to welcome you, Sect Master. It's only open when the Sect Master visits. Otherwise, it remains closed, and even I come here merely to go through the accounts."

The shopkeeper grinned obsequiously and said.

Upon hearing this,

Chu Yuan was taken aback for a moment.

Firstly because of the shopkeeper's change in addressing him; he remembered the shopkeeper used to call him 'boss'.

Now it had changed to Sect Master.

Secondly, he was astonished by the shopkeeper's increased sycophancy.

He had actually built an entire third floor for him? This seemed rather excessive; he recalled the shopkeeper being a tough man who wouldn't give in even with a blade at his throat.

Now, to see such a transformation was surprising.

But then again, why bother about these things?

He was here not to concern himself with such matters.

"Alright, shopkeeper, I've come here because I have a matter to discuss with you."

Chu Yuan waved his hand and said.

"Something for the Sect Master? Just a moment, just a moment, please. Sect Master, I'll have someone bring up some items, and we can talk while you eat."

The shopkeeper hurriedly ordered the waiter to prepare some things.

As he spoke, it seemed that he found the waiter's actions too slow.

He had the waiter attend to Chu Yuan, invited him to take a seat, and then ran off to the kitchen himself.

Apparently, any delay was deemed disrespectful to Chu Yuan.

Chu Yuan watched with surprise, thinking to himself how much the shopkeeper had changed...n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
