The Romantic Cultivator

After Ji Yuan had banged Xu Yifei and he had taken her chastity, it was time for Ji Yuan to have a private chat with Shui Qingqing.

He was looking full of regrets that he had taken the chastity of the Lovely Empress and Xu Yifei in a moment of spur when he was not supposed to bang them.

"What is wrong with me? I must be getting old and senile now…"

"Alas, I am more than 500 years old now…"

"How did my defenses break so easily?"

"How can I resist the temptations of the Evil Cultivation Palace in the future? They have so many beautiful maidens in their cultivation sect… alas… one day, I will surely become a living cauldron of their evil dual cultivation practices. It must be because I had killed the 3 beautiful maidens from the Evil Cultivation Palace and their spirits have come back to haunt me…"

He was determined to control himself this time.

"Ji Yuan," Shui Qingqing shyly called out to him. "Or should I call you the Great Hero Ji Yuan now?"

Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, "Just call me Ji Yuan. We are friends after all…"

But Shui Qingqing interrupted him with soft and affectionate looks, "Senior Ji Yuan. Your cultivation is 2 major realms above me now. I ought to address you as my senior. Moreover, you are also older than me too. Calling you by your name without any titles are just too disrespectful for you."

Ji Yuan laughed softly, "What if I insist that you call me Brother Ji Yuan?"

Slowly, Shui Qingqing quietly nodded, "Alright then. Brother Ji Yuan…"

Then she had hung her head with great melancholy to say, "I still remember there is a time before you had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth that the two of us are still around the same cultivation realm. And we had even fought together twice. One time in a cave and the other time against the two Evil Citadel Lords. But now, you are so strong now… I wish that my protégé mistress had allowed me to enter the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth with you. Maybe I would also be much stronger now."

Ji Yuan laughed weakly, "Well, your protégé mistress Shui Xisi didn't gain any cultivation realms while inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. So it is not a sure thing that you would be able to find your lucky occurrences in there…"

As he was saying this to her, he was thinking that Shui Xisi is a peaked great saintess anyway and she has reached her bottleneck already. So it is normal that she could not advance in her cultivation realm since she is already a peaked great saintess and the 7th realm is the ceiling for the celestial cultivators.

Shui Qingqing said with great shyness to Ji Yuan, "I… it is good that you've come back now. All your maidens are waiting for you… including my protégé mistress." 

Ji Yuan quickly said to her with a weak laughter, "There is absolutely nothing between your protégé mistress and I. Hahaha… we are merely friends."

Shui Qingqing sighed and lowered her head woefully, "If my protégé mistress like you, you will accept her?"

All of a sudden, she was looking with bleary eyes at Ji Yuan.

Ji Yuan was startled that Shui Qingqing would suddenly ask him this question and he was surprised, "Why do you want to ask this question? It is impossible between us. Hahaha…"

Anyang reminded him: My lord, may I remind you that you had banged Shui Xisi the most numbers of times only quite recently.

Ji Yuan pretended not to hear Anyang and ignored her.

But he was puzzled why Shui Qingqing had suddenly asked her this question.

There was a reason why Shui Qingqing had asked this question; it was because she liked Ji Yuan and if her protégé mistress also liked him that she would have no chance. The Water Melody Palace is an orthodox celestial cultivation sect after all and it is unthinkable for both a protégé mistress and her protégé to be consorts to the same man.

The seniority would then be in a terrible mess and the Water Melody Palace would then be the mocking laughter of the entire Desolate Celestial Fraternity.

Shui Qingqing looked innocently at Ji Yuan and she was slowly smiling.

Her protégé mistress had claimed that there was nothing between Ji Yuan and her. 

And now, Ji Yuan was also saying the same.

Although Shui Qingqing had heard some gossips that were about her protégé mistress and Ji Yuan but her good heart believed in everything her protégé mistress and Ji Yuan had said to her. 

Ji Yuan did not know the reason why she had asked and he was denying his affair with Shui Xisi because the two of them were happy to try to hook wink the other maidens. 

Ji Yuan had said to his maidens, "I am not so lecherous to take Jiajia and her sister as well…"

"But you have taken the two of us," Hua Wuwu reminded him of her sister Hua Baiyue and her. 

The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was also saying, "Don't forget my half sister Yang Mi as well."

Ji Yuan pretended not to hear them as he walked away while muttering, "I just remember that I have some cultivations to do…" 

Shui Qingqing had suddenly asked Ji Yuan with a coyly look, "Brother Ji Yuan, do you think that we have a chance in the future?"

Ji Yuan patted Shui Qingqing's shoulders and said to her tenderly, "I shall give you a reply after my battle with the Great Demon God. After all, I don't know if I will be alive after this…"

Then he pretended to sigh with great melancholy, "As you know. With great power comes great responsibility."

Shui Qingqing asked him with a fearful look, "I don't want my Brother Ji Yuan to die. Can we win?"

Ji Yuan sighed, "I've explored 1,40,00,605 possible outcomes during my cultivation rest and there is only one possible outcome that we can win…"

Anyang immediately said to Xiang Li in Ji Yuan's soul sea: Our lord had been banging his maidens during his cultivation rest and there is no way that he has been spending any time thinking how he could have defeated the Great Demon God. I say that the 1,40,00,605 times are actually his little Ji Yuan instead and he was trying to think of swimming his little Ji Yuan to score a victory…

Ji Yuan nearly choked when he had heard Anyang and he had also stopped halfway too because of that.

Shui Qingqing asked him curiously, "Brother Ji Yuan, you are saying that there is only a possible outcome that you can win? What is it?"

Ji Yuan turned to Shui Qingqing as he said solemnly, "Pride comes before the fall. The Great Demon God will fall when he is at the peak of his pride. That is when my counter attack shall begin."

Shui Qingqing: …

Anyang, Xiang Li: …

Anyang weakly said to Xiang Li: I think our lord forgets to mention the fact that he may be killed before he has a chance for his counter attack."
