The Romantic Cultivator

Chapter 1145 Trust me, I am not Dying

To Ji Yuan's surprise, he was soon joined by Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue, Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shui Qingqing, Xu Yifei, Tang Manni, Little Jie'Er and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu.

Only Mu Wan'Er and Fairy Qiu Xiuyu were not around as they were taking care of Xue Qianxue's baby son for her.

These maidens had taken a profound ship and landed in the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect when they had learnt that Ji Yuan was not going back and that he would be camping at the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect instead.

When Ji Yuan saw the maidens, he was a little speechless, "Why are you all here?"

Xue Qianxue smiled, "I've forgotten to give the Matriarch Shui Xisi the artefact core of Xiao Ruan for safekeeping."

Shui Xisi was startled, "You have my Xiao Ruan's artefact core?"

Xue Qianxue nodded with a heavy sigh, "Jiajia has taken Xiao Ruan's artefact core from the Evil Cultivation Palace and she has tasked me to give it to you when you have returned."

Shui Xisi was bleary eyed, "My sister Jiajia is ever so nice to me…"

Her tears had begun to flow again.

Ji Yuan ignored Xue Qianxue and Shui Xisi for the time being and asked the other maidens, "Why are you all here?"

"Ji Yuan, don't interrupt this quiet moment for Maiden Shui Xisi," Ling Feiyue warned him.

Ji Yuan: …

This is only an excuse not to answer me, right?

Fairy Ye Chengxi asked curiously, "How did our lord retake the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect?"

Little Princess sighed woefully, "This is a long story. I am afraid that Ji Yuan is dying soon."

Ji Yuan frowned, "I am not."

Shangguan Yan asked Little Princess, "Please tell us what has happened here? There is a rumor that Ji Yuan has killed a 9th realm immortal."

Little Princess replied, "This isn't a rumor. Let me tell you what has happened instead…"

Ji Yuan said with eager look, "Let me tell you what has happened. After a perilous journey to this place and encountering a terrifying dark storm…"

All the maidens began to gather around Little Princess as she explained, "When we got here, the evil cultivators have activated the cultivation sect's profound defense against us…"

Ji Yuan: …

What the hell? No one wants to listen to my story? Aren't I the main character?

Many of the maidens know that Ji Yuan's story only has 30% truth in it so they would rather listen to Little Princess instead.

Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "After a long fight with the dark storm that was as terrifying as the divine calamity, we have managed to make it to the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect…"

Anyang giggled to Xiang Li: It seems that no one is interested to know about our lord's fake story about battling a dark storm.

Ji Yuan protested immediately: We did see a dark cloud on our way here, right?

Anyang giggled: I don't remember that part where you battled a dark storm though.

Ji Yuan muttered weakly: I battled it with my sword intentions and hence, you can't see it unless you have my level of sword dao.

Anyang chuckled: Well, I don't and no one see it too.

Ji Yuan frowned: Perhaps next time I should let you witness the terrifying power of the dark storm instead…

Xiang Li chuckled: Big Brother, you know. If you skip that storm part and get to the main point instead, your maidens may be willing to listen to you.

Ji Yuan said with an ugly look: And skip the exciting prologue? Never!

Little Princess was now saying, "You didn't see how ugly Ji Yuan's face was when he was battling with that Sword Immortal Teng Haijian. He looks extremely angry and ugly…"

Ji Yuan frowned when he had heard her, "I will be ugly? And how do I look angry and ugly at the same time? Do you have to add ugly when you talk about me?"

Shui Xisi said to the other maidens, "I was there too. You didn't see how ugly Ji Yuan was at that time. He was even more terrifying than the dark storm at that time…"

"Terrifying looking isn't the right word," Hua Wuwu pointed out. "Horrible looking is the right word to be used on Ji Yuan at that time…"

Hua Baiyue said, "No, he is terrifying, horrible looking and ugly at the same time…"

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Are they making up stories about me?

Little Princess continued, "That Sword Immortal Teng Haijian has a powerful sword domain. This is not only an immortal art but also his sword domain that is called the Great Sword of Heavens… and Ji Yuan was not his match…"

Ji Yuan frowned: I won, you know.

He could not resist adding, "My profound sword art is called the Dividing One Sword and I've learnt it when I was in the Dark Abyssal Realm. This Dividing One Sword is a sword art that I've learnt inside the Sanctuary of the Forbidden. In order to enter this place, I have to obtain two keys from two abyssal maidens. Alas, I was so charming that I was able to charm the two of them into helping me to enter that place…"

"Ji Yuan actually like the abyssal maidens?"

"He got a fetish?"

"He may be handsome but the abyssals are ugly…"

"You mean Ji Yuan has to sacrifice his body to obtain this Dividing One Sword? This sacrifice is a little too big…"

"I cannot imagine Ji Yuan together with an abyssal…"

"I have heard that the abyssals practice the infernal profound art…"

"Sanctuary of the Forbidden? He must have picked up some forbidden profound art there…"

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Little Princess sighed heavily, "Then Ji Yuan burned all his true essence and his sword art that was a wave of black profound energies became golden in color. He himself turned golden…"

Shui Xisi nodded, "When true essence is burnt, a strong golden aura can be seen with the visible eyes…"

Little Princess nodded woefully, "And because of this, Ji Yuan is now in his golden reflection time and that is why he is willing to stay behind to sacrifice himself. It is because his days are numbered…"

Ji Yuan said weakly, "Actually I am perfect alright. Why don't you examine my inner spiritual sea? I am really not dying or anything."

Xue Qianxue smiled and turned to the Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei, "Maiden Yifei, you don't mind using your spirit divine sense to check on Ji Yuan? Your divine sense is sharper than anyone of us."

Xu Yifei smiled as she shook her head, "I can't. I promise my mistress that I won't enter Master Ji Yuan's inner spiritual sea again."

The Lovely Empress smiled, "Maybe let me examine his impure inner spiritual sea?"

Ji Yuan immediately said panicky, "Anyone can examine my inner spiritual sea except for you because you have an impure mind."

The Lovely Empress: …

Shui Xisi said, "We can all examine Ji Yuan's inner spiritual sea together. Maybe we can find a cure for him…"

Then she said tenderly to Ji Yuan, "You don't mind if we examine your inner spiritual sea?"

Ji Yuan looked at all the beautiful maidens in front of him as he looked dangerously at them, "I don't mind seeing all of you naked in my inner spiritual sea at all."

All the maidens: …
