Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

Within the main hall of the Palace of Ten Thousand Demons.

Boom!

A loud crash.

Donghuang Taiyi was flung backward, crashing through the gates and falling to the ground with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

Inside his hall.

Yuan Chu extended one hand, watching the fallen Donghuang Taiyi with an expressionless face.

Just as he had foreseen.

Even Donghuang Taiyi, equipped with the Donghuang Bell, was no match for him.

"Taiyi, are you convinced?"

Yuan Chu asked blandly.

On the other side, Donghuang Taiyi, who lay on the ground, attempted multiple times to stand up again but was simply unable to rise.

The group of monsters beside him were already dumbstruck, unable to believe what they had witnessed.

Even Donghuang Taiyi, once a top combatant of the Demon Race and wielding the Donghuang Bell, was no match for this newly appointed Demon Sovereign, Yuan Chu.

This was just too...

The group of monsters didn't know how to describe the shock in their hearts.

"Demon Sovereign, Taiyi is convinced and begs for your mercy."

Seeing this, Di Jun hurriedly stepped forward and spoke.

At this time, Donghuang Taiyi also managed to stand up again, facing Yuan Chu, and gave a slight bow to indicate his sentiment.

"Hmph."

Yuan Chu let out a cold snort before letting the matter rest.

He then turned and returned to his seat.

Donghuang Taiyi, holding his chest, returned to the lineup and exchanged glances with Di Jun.

Di Jun looked at his younger brother and sighed.

Raise Yuan Chu's status.

Raise Yuan Chu's status.

That was what this younger brother had told him the most.

Now what?

Now good, the other has soared directly into the sky.

Above them, trampling them all underfoot.

Isn't that status high enough?

Donghuang Taiyi was helpless.

How could he have known that Yuan Chu harbored such ambition?

Moreover, his strength was so great.

Even he, wielding the Donghuang Bell, was no match for him.

"Gentlemen, since it has been decided, I ask you to prepare for battle with all your might, ready to launch the final fight against the new era."

Yuan Chu spoke to the group of monsters.

"We shall heed the Demon Sovereign's command!"

The group of monsters responded one after another.

Afterward, Yuan Chu gestured for the group of monsters to leave.

Preparing for battle would require time.

Not something that could be accomplished overnight.

Obviously, the specifics are not to be discussed now.

So naturally, Yuan Chu would not let the group of monsters continue to crowd the place.

However, after the group of monsters left,

Yuan Chu kept one of the Demon Generals back in the hall.

"Demon Sovereign."

The Demon General asked cautiously, unsure of Yuan Chu's reason for keeping him behind.

"I had instructed you to keep an eye on the one who often slaughters our Demon Race; how goes it now?"

Yuan Chu inquired with an inexpressive face.

He was aware that the three disciples of Chu Yuan—Li Cheng, Lin Mo, Taotie—were on the Tianjian Continent.

Taotie was already under his control.

But as for Li Cheng and Lin Mo, he never knew their whereabouts.

He had initially wanted someone to capture those two, but instead alerted them, causing them to flee and go into hiding.

This had led to the current embarrassing situation.

Yuan Chu could not find the two of them.

Thus, he could only keep someone on the lookout, ready to inform him immediately if there was any movement.

"No, not at all, Demon Sovereign, we've been unable to find that person, it's as if he vanished into thin air."

The Demon General replied nervously, fearing to enrage Yuan Chu.

"Can't find him? Never mind, you may leave."

Yuan Chu waved his hand, dismissing the Demon General.

The Demon General hastily clasped his fists in respect and then obediently withdrew.

Soon, the hall was left with only Yuan Chu.

Yuan Chu sat in his seat, his eyes slightly narrowed as he pondered.

Could it be that Li Cheng and Lin Mo have fled, no longer on the Tianjian Continent?

Otherwise, why could they not be found?

Yuan Chu thought for a long time before finally letting the thought go.

Even if those two were still on the Tianjian Continent, what of it?

The current situation could no longer be changed by two disciples.

The Catastrophic Tribulation had begun.

The course of the old era had been set.

Overturning the new era was only a matter of time.

The affairs of these two disciples could be left unattended without any issue.

Yuan Chu shook his head, no longer dwelling on the thoughts.

...

Meanwhile.

In the depths of a mountain range on the Tianjian Continent.

The very Li Cheng and Lin Mo that Yuan Chu had been concerned about were here.

At the same time, Su Qianyuan was also here.

The three of them happened to meet by coincidence and became acquainted.

This is a long story.

As Su Qianyuan traveled through the Tianjian Continent, he encountered many ferocious beasts, all of which he beat to death.

However, his fighting disturbances attracted the attention of some Demon Generals.

To avoid trouble, Su Qianyuan could only hide, dodging here and there, until at last he took refuge in this deep mountain.

Afterward, he encountered Lin Mo, who was also of the Human Race.

Lin Mo naturally took action and supported Su Qianyuan.

The three thus became acquainted.

On this day, the three of them were sitting around a campfire.

"Fellow Daoist, may I ask from which Human Race territory do you come? I remember that the Human Race seems to have been almost annihilated, right? How come there still appears a strong person like you?"

Lin Mo asked in an indifferent tone.

He had already tried hard to control his own aura.

Yet, having slaughtered too many of the Demon Race, his whole being still lingered with a terrifying breath; from afar, even without releasing his aura, he looked like a demonic emperor, a lord of the abyss!

However, such a demeanor was of no use against Su Qianyuan, whose aura was equally turbulent.

"Our tribe has always been hidden in the depths of the mountains without revealing itself, so it has remained intact, yes, hidden, hidden..."

Su Qianyuan coughed twice and answered.

He had no idea what the state of the Human Race on the Tianjian Continent was like and could only brazenly give answers, hoping to bluster through.

He felt quite good about the two people in front of him.

If it wasn't necessary, he didn't want to take action against them.

"Hidden? I see."

Li Cheng responded as if enlightened, but his eyes flickered with shrewdness.

He scrutinized Su Qianyuan carefully.

Then he proceeded to ask.

"Then, may I know what Daoist aspect do you practice? Why is your body so strong? From what I remember, there are no Body Refinement techniques among the Human Race, are there?"

Li Cheng said so.

He had no idea whether the Human Race had Body Refinement techniques or not; clearly, he was attempting to elicit information from Su Qianyuan.

"The methods I practice were gained from a fortunate encounter and are not the ones practiced by the Human Race."

Su Qianyuan continued to give evasive answers.

"Then surely you have a master? May I know who your master is?"

Li Cheng asked smilingly.

Upon hearing this,

Su Qianyuan's mind went blank, at a loss for what to say.

He couldn't just blurt out, "My Respected Master is called Chu Yuan," could he?

Revealing his master's name for no reason seemed inappropriate.

After much thought,

Why not reverse his master's name and use that to placate these two?

Chu Yuan, Chu Yuan, Yuan Chu, Yuan Chu.

It was feasible!

And so it was decided!

"My master goes by the name Yuan Chu!"

Su Qianyuan spoke up, decisively stating...
