The Romantic Cultivator
484 Fingers Pointing (2)
Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had already flashed her heaven-step divine sword in front of Ji Yuan and she was now saying to Yang Mi, "Display your divine sword as well for tonight we have two demons to slay!"
Little Princess walked mesmerizing toward Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, swaying her mesmerizing figure as she smiled. "While I don't know who you are but I know that you are definitely a practitioner of the dual cultivation arts. Lady, why don't you repent from your wanton ways instead or do you want to force my hands?"
Ji Yuan answered wryly while he was secretly watching her swaying slim figure, "She is Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and also the leader of the Holy Oracle Sect. This Grand Matriarch Xi is also a great saintess. Her celestial clan is one of the top three most powerful celestial clans in the Endless Celestial Fraternity. Little Princess, you ought to be careful of her. Let me fight her instead."
Then he looked at Yang Mi, "As for the maiden that is behind her, she is Saintess Yang Mi. But don't harm her. It is because she is Jingjing's friend."
Little Princess raised a lovely look at Ji Yuan as she displayed her heaven-step divine sword, "Oh?"
She knew Yu Jingjing of course and she could tell that she was infatuated with Ji Yuan.
Matriarch Xi Jingping had turned to look at Yang Mi, "Where is your divine sword? Didn't I just expose this beast of a man and can't you see that they are going to gang up to deal with us."
Yang Mi reply had suddenly stunned her for she had replied, "I trust that Ji Yuan is a good man."
Matriarch Xi Jingping was held speechless. "You…"
Even Little Princess was stunned by Yang Mi because they had not caught hold of Matriarch Xi's criminal evidences yet.
And also because Little Princess did not want to tell anyone that she was once from the Evil Cultivation Palace and that her heretic divine sense would be able to tell if a cultivator's soul sea was tainted by the dual cultivation art.
Ji Yuan was now looking at Yang Mi with a weird expression, "Huh?!"
He has always believed that the master-protégé bond was stronger than anything else and cannot be shattered by mere words.
Little Princess sarcastically chuckled, "It seems that another maiden has fallen in love with his good looks."
Xiang Li agreed silently: That's right! Me too as well!
Ji Yuan was offended as he muttered weakly, "What does my looks have to do with this matter? Leave my looks alone…"
Yang Mi was flushing shyly as she looked at Ji Yuan and her cheeks were burning as she said silently: Everything…
Matriarch Xi Jingping said coldly to Yang Mi, "Yang Mi! How dare you disobey your grand matriarch and protégé mistress! I've asked you to draw your divine sword and you've dared to disobey my decree?"
Yang Mi quickly answered with weak voice, "Grand Matriarch, I think that you ought to investigate first. Ji Yuan, he may be just passing by. As for this maiden in black, she may be wrong to accuse you but we can always ask her to provide proof or else none of us will be treating her words seriously."
What Yang Mi had said was totally rational.
Even Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was thinking: If there is no proof then they can't do anything against me. Now that Jue Jie and Lin Antian are all my living furnaces, they will need to obey me. I also have Qin Shuang and Xiao Muhan to aid me. Even Jingjing and Yang Mi will not like to see their grand matriarch getting humiliated in front of the rest. No matter how formidable Ji Yuan is, he can't fight all of us at the same time…
"You have two options." Ji Yuan had suddenly interrupted her, startling Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping, Little Princess and Yang Mi at the same time.
"One is to cripple your cultivation core and to cultivate again. Secondly, I will have to put you down today."
What Ji Yuan had suddenly said shocked Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and Yang Mi for his words were far too ruthless!
Ji Yuan explained, "If Little Princess says you are an evil dual cultivator, then you are one. I've completed faith in what she has just said."
Little Princess was touched by what Ji Yuan had just said.
She knew why Ji Yuan had hated the evil dual cultivators so much, especially the cultivators from the Evil Cultivator Palace.
And she was very much to be blamed for this…
Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was suddenly smiling, "What if I don't do what you've just said? What if I choose to refuse your demands?"
Naturally she knew what would happen as she continued, "We are both great saints. Do you think that I am afraid of you? Do you dare to fight me one to one?"
Ji Yuan was surprised that Grand Matriarch Xi was actually challenging him so he answered immediately, "Why not?"
Little Princess gasped softly while Grand Matriarch Xi was smiling.
It was because they could both tell that somehow Ji Yuan was not in his peak condition and his profound strength seemed to be 'weak'.
Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled, "Isn't this what you've wanted in the first place?"
She had given up on defending herself because this Ji Yuan was just too unreasonable. If he wants to fight then they shall fight!
Yang Mi could not compose herself; it was because she did not want her grand matriarch to be dead nor did she want Ji Yuan to be dead either. And now both of them are challenging each other to a duel!
Barely had Little Princess stepped forward, Ji Yuan was saying sternly to her. "This is between the two of us so I hope my dearest Little Princess will be a speculator today."
With a soft sigh, Little Princess had stepped back but not without muttering some curses.
Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and Ji Yuan were immediately encircling each other with their divine swords in their hands!
A golden light in the form of a goddess had suddenly burst forth from Grand Matriarch Xi's profound animus and she was carrying a balance, startling Ji Yuan and Little Princess.
All of a sudden Grand Matriarch Xi's profound strength had suddenly increased to that of a peaked great saintess!
Yang Mi gasped with awe, "This is the spirit animus of the Holy Oracle Goddess that is appearing…"
Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had suddenly made her move and she was enveloped in her pure profound power as she attacked Ji Yuan.
Ji Yuan dared not be careless as he raised his sword spirit to empower his saint-step divine sword to brace himself for the attack.
There was a brilliant light as they clashed together in a blink of an eye and they appeared to be even.
But all of a sudden the spirit animus above Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping had swung her golden balance. Ji Yuan was startled as he quickly lifted his sword to block the attack but still he was being swapped by the golden balance!
This caused him to fly backward and he had struck the back of the cave in a thunderous impact!
Little Princess and Yang Mi were shocked and they were now fearing for Ji Yuan.
But as soon as the debris had settled, everyone could see a bloodied Ji Yuan had already picked himself up but he was shaking weakly.
Ji Yuan coughed weakly; he had not expected to find a true spirit cultivator here and she could even attack with her spirit animus. At first he had thought that she was a power cultivator and that her spirit animus was only there to lend aid to her profound strength.
But that was not the point; he was now depleted of his inner spiritual sea…
Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was smiling for she could sense that Ji Yuan's profound animus had dimmed.
She had a secret and this secret allowed her to see the inner spiritual sea of a cultivator. This was due to her years of training in spirit cultivation and it had now become her trump card against Ji Yuan.
That was also the reason why she had chosen to challenge Ji Yuan.
While she did not understand why Ji Yuan's inner spiritual sea seemed to be empty, it was no longer important to know why. As long as he was not able to bring forth his full profound strength, it was just a matter of time before she could destroy his golden body.
Without waiting for Ji Yuan to react, Grand Matriarch Xi had suddenly flashed toward him and her profound animus was shaped like a bright golden phoenix!
Ji Yuan saw her attack and he was bracing for the profound attack now…
But all of a sudden Yang Mi was pierced through her slim body by Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping for she had suddenly flashed in front to block the attack for him.
But Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping did not even stop her attack for she had wanted Ji Yuan to be dead!
Ji Yuan was stunned for he had already readied his life force energies to retaliate against Grand Matriarch Xi.
His life force energies were able to force him to use his profound strength at his highest peak and he was already aiming at Grand Matriarch Xi.
Instead Ji Yuan channeled half of his profound strength to hold protectively onto Yang Mi and he threw half of his other profound energies at Grand Matriarch Xi.
To his horror, he saw that his profound attack against Grand Matriarch Xi seemed to have dissipated all of a sudden and that he had wasted his life force energies.
It was because Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping could sense that Ji Yuan's attack was most unusual and she had suddenly used one of her golden talismans!
And she had vanished!
Ji Yuan was now holding onto a pale looking Yang Mi as he slowly whispered woefully to her, "Yang Mi, close your eyes to rest for now…"
"Did I… save you…" Yang Mi gasped weakly.
Ji Yuan bitterly said, "You don't have to help me. I can handle my own battles…"
But Yang Mi merely smiled before she closed her eyes.
All of a sudden there was the voice of Grand Matriarch Xi outside the cave and she was shouting with her profound strength, "Ji Yuan! Do you dare to come out to fight me?"
Ji Yuan was startled, "Didn't she use the golden talisman already?"
Little Princess answered the question for him, "If you have used the golden talisman outside a trial, it will teleport you to the edge of the final trial. But if you are inside a trial area and this is a trial area, you will only be teleported nearby. Also by using the golden talisman, her inner spiritual seas will also be fully replenished. In other words, you will be fighting her at full strength again."
Ji Yuan nodded slowly as he struggled to stand straight. "And I am almost depleted of my inner spiritual sea and even my life force energies."
But he shouted aloud nevertheless, "Old Witch Xi! Wait for me! I am coming for you!"
Then he carefully put the bloodied Yang Mi into Little Princess' arms, "Please help me to take good care of her. This is my battle!"
With that he had sped out of the cave.
