Ling Feiyue's plan was really bold and simple.
She knew that she would not stand a chance if she were to confront the Hundred Flower Divine Palace directly.
Therefore she planned to use the True Sacred Saint Profound Art as a bait to seek a direct audience with the Divine Palace Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Palace. A fragment of this cultivation profound art was once highly sought after by the Hundred Flower Divine Palace and many of the celestial clans.
Therefore this bait would surely work.
For this, she had already prepared her speech. "I have the true copy of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art. Bring me to the Divine Palace Master or I will destroy the one and only copy of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art right in front of your eyes. And don't ever think of seizing it from me because I can destroy it faster than you can bring me down."
And she had shared her bold plan with Xue Qianxue and Bai Qianfeng.
Xue Qianxue agreed that the plan was feasible.
Bai Qianfeng even suggested, "I will remain in my spirit fox form. At the most crucial timing, I will revert to my true form to deal the Divine Palace Master a fatal attack. He will never suspect that I am actually a cultivator." She had even thought of pushing over her current realm limit to execute an eighth realm profound power attack by burning her spiritual sea.
As she had lost her peak seventh realm profound strength while fighting the epic desolate monster, she is unable to force her profound power to the ninth realm level anymore. The maximum profound power that she can push to the limit is the eighth realm level.
However pushing over to the current limit always has a heavy price to pay for and it is by burning the cultivator's spiritual sea which will drastically affect the cultivator's profound strength and even cause the cultivator's profound strength to slip.
But Bai Qianfeng did not care for this. As long as her attack is strong enough to kill the Divine Palace Master, she will considered it worthwhile to do so.
Ling Feiyue said to Xue Qianxue, "Qianxue, you are with child. You don't need to take the risk with us."
Xue Qianxue shook her head as she said firmly to them and her eyes were full of conviction, "If I am included then we can assure that our plan will have a higher chance of success. That old goat will surely fall into our honey trap. After all, no man can resist our alluring beauty."
Seeing that Xue Qianxue had already firmly decided to join them, Ling Feiyue took out several pills and said quietly. "The bright green pills will render us immune to the most powerful scents for an hour. Even though we are all seventh realm saintesses here and are not affected by scents but there may be some unknown scents that can still work against us."
The Hundred Flower Divine Palace is indeed renowned for the use of its many special scents.
Then Ling Feiyue said quietly, "The blue pills are deadly poisons for us to take. No matter what, we cannot allow ourselves to be taken as melting cauldron or allow ourselves to be tainted by other men."
With that the three maidens had made their plans and secretly kept their daring plan from Yuan Ji.
They had actually planned to make a move during the night but when they saw that Yuan Ji had suddenly went after the two sister saintesses Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue, they had decided to make their moves.
They just told Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan that they would be exploring the vicinity and would be back quickly.
Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue were now making their way rapidly through the mountain. Although they were extremely swift, Bai Qianfeng in her spirit fox form was still able to match their speed.
All of a sudden the dark shade of a man had suddenly flashed in front of them, startling everyone.
"Where do you think you are all going?" It was Yuan Ji who had appeared in front of them and he was now asking them bitterly.
Then he took a look at Bai Qianfeng, "Don't tell me that the two of you already know who Qianfeng is?"
Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, "We are just taking a walk. Why are you here? I thought that you are trying to chat with the two lovely maidens? Why? They have turned you down?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtXue Qianxue chuckled weakly, "Yelp, we're just taking a walk…"
Yuan Ji interrupted coldly, "I want all of you to turn back immediately. Let me make it firmly to you first. This duel is my personal duel and none of your business. If you are to step forward again, I will divorce you immediately and I will have no ties with you whatever so."
"It isn't what you think it is…"
"We are only trying to help…"
"Maybe we can negotiate with the Divine Palace Master…"
Even Bai Qianfeng had assumed her human form and was saying, "We're just checking the terrain for you…"
The three maidens were really good in finding excuses and in a short while time, they had come up with dozens of suggestions and excuses.
Bai Qianfeng hummed, "Do you still remember you have to do three things for me? Well, I want you to give way to us!"
Yuan Ji replied coolly, "Anything but that."
Bai Qianfeng: …
In the end Yuan Ji nuked all their excuses, suggestions and threats by telling them, "If you don't turn back immediately, I will kill myself right in front of you."
This was an ultimate nuke that completely nuked all their stubbornness. And Yuan Ji had learnt it from Shangguan Yan.
In the end, the three maidens had no choice but to turn back angrily.
When Yuan Ji had accompanied them to return to camp, Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi were surprised to see Bai Qianfeng.
"She is?" They asked curiously.
"She is my nine-tail spirit fox…" Yuan Ji promptly introduced Bai Qianfeng to them.
"And she is my fifth consort." He said as he finished off the introduction.
Bai Qianfeng looked shyly away, "Who is your fifth consort huh? I don't fancy a dead man soon."
Yuan Ji laughed, "Who says I will be a dead man soon? I have a fifty-fifty odd!"
"Bold words." Ling Feiyue hummed unhappily.
Even Xue Qianxue was shaking her head in disapproval.
Ling Feiyue threw a green pill to Yuan Ji, "Here. Take this. This green pill can render you immune to the special scents of the Hundred Flower Divine Palace for an hour. Take it just in case."
Yuan Ji caught hold of it and said to all the five maidens quietly, "Trust me. I will surely return from the duel tomorrow. So please do not do anything funny that will affect my focus for the duel tomorrow."
All the five maidens looked down and were afraid to look at him. They really did not have much faith!
They knew by that Yuan Ji's confidence was being driven by his Undying Fighting Spirit and the odd that he had mentioned was just assuring words to pacify them.
Xue Qianxue slowly said, "Four hundred years ago, the Divine Palace Master of the Hundred Flower Divine Palace had killed two great formidable saints at the same time. One of them was Sword Saint Xiao Shenji, some even say he was the greatest sword cultivator and sword saint ever."
Ling Feiyue nodded, "Sword Saint Xiao Shenji even had a formidable sword spirit to aid him."
Yuan Ji nodded, "Yea. He is my hero. Even my old master had spoken highly of Sword Saint Xiao Shenji as the greatest sword saint ever."
"But I may not lose. Because I am the thickest skin Sword Saint ever."
Everyone: …
Yuan Ji said coolly, "Alright. Everyone stay here. Please do not go anywhere. I will be back shortly."
Fairy Ye Chengxi asked him curiously, "Where are you going?"
Yuan Ji said solemnly, "My duel with the Divine Palace Master is starting in a few hours' time. Naturally I will be practicing my skills and warming myself up before my duel."
With that he had left the camp site.
Shangguan Yan had a suspicious look, "Is he really going to practice his sword skills?"
Ling Feiyue smiled, "He won't lie to us. He just tempered his soul and he has to at least ensure that he is in a tip top condition before his duel."
Xue Qianxue agreed, "That is right. And why should he lie to us?"
Fairy Ye Chengxi smiled weakly, "That is because he never practices his sword skills at the last minute, not even if the duel is a life threatening one."
Xue Qianxue asked curiously, "Then what he does before the duel? Reciting poems to calm his nerves?"
Ling Feiyue smiled as she made a guess, "Surely he isn't secretly finding a spot to drink his wines? That's such a big taboo to do before a duel."
Fairy Ye Chengxi hesitated for a while before she lowered her voice to answer them. "He visited the brothels."
Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng: …

Yuan Ji was actually not practicing his skills and instead he was now laying quite intimately with Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue.
He sniffed their clothing and undies as he casually put it aside.
Hua Wuwu smiled weakly, "I don't understand. You have five beautiful maidens below and why are you here?"
"Right. What are you doing up here for?" Hua Baiyue hummed coldly.
"I like to pick the wild flowers sometimes." Yuan laughed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThen he added, "Naturally when I am up here, I feel more confidence of defeating your old master."
"We will never tell you anything. Forget it." Hua Wuwu hummed coldly.
Yuan Ji slowly caressed them as he laughed, "Never mind. The night is long…"
"You are a little rascal…"
"And a lecherous one!"
Yuan Ji laughed, "I have never said that I am a hero, am I right?"
Xiang Li was saying delightfully in Yuan Ji's soul sea, "Yelp! He's never a hero. Wuwu and Baiyue, it is so good to see the two of you again. Hehe! Hurry and go bang bang!"
Hours later…
Hua Wuwu finally succumbed under to Yuan Ji's manly lure, "My old master is already in perfect harmony with his celestial sword. Therefore your sword strength will never be powerful enough to overwhelm him…"
"He has the Golden Nirvana Divine Skill. It's a secret divine art that can render all profound attacks almost useless. How many times he can use this divine skill, we have no idea as well." Hua Baiyue added under the skillful touches of Yuan Ji.
"He has already formed the Spirit Core of the True Sacred Saint Profound Art. So be very careful tomorrow." Hua Wuwu whispered into his ears.
Yuan Ji smiled bitterly, "You may as well don't tell me. Now I'm truly dead."
"Although you may sound a little bitter but you doesn't seem to be affected too much by it. Why?" Hua Wuwu asked him curiously.
Yuan Ji laughed as he held the two sisters tightly to him, "That is because I have already predicted who will win the duel tomorrow."
"Oh?" The two sister saintesses returned him a curious look.
Yuan Ji replied quite nonchalantly, "I have a 100% chance of losing. This, I am absolutely certain."
Hua Wuwu gave him a perplexed look, "But you don't look like you have surrendered the fight yet."
Yuan Ji gave a soft but hearty laugh, "That is because I had visited Diviner Mo Ming and he had told me that I will surely lose. But I am still unwilling to believe it and surrender my fight."
Hua Baiyue gasped, "The Diviner Mo Ming that has never given the wrong prediction?"
Yuan Ji nodded, "That's right."
Hua Wuwu inhaled softly, "Then why don't you run away?"
Yuan Ji laughed, "That is because I want to see the two of you again. Haha."
"Don't talk rubbish." Hua Baiyue hit him on his chest and pinched his nipple. This caused Yuan Ji to give a soft yell.
"Alright, alright. I shall be honest with the two of you since we're friends." Yuan Ji quickly said.
He sighed heavily before saying solemnly, "It is against my Dao as Sword Saint to back off from my duel. Moreover, I am quite eager to fight a superior opponent like your old master."
Hua Wuwu asked him quietly, "Why don't you tell my old master that you didn't steal our divine flower and shift it to the real culprit?"
Yuan Ji grinned but said nothing. It was because Xia Jiajia had a precious place in his heart. Even though she was the one that had stolen the Blue Divine Flower but he would never reveal her name to the Hundred Flower Divine Palace.
