The Romantic Cultivator



Elder Xie Tianzun was impressed by Xiao Muhan's show of great wealth and he was smiling, "I didn't know that we have quite a rich man in our group. Hahaha…"

Xiao Muhan was also laughing jovially, "This is really nothing. It is my pleasure to contribute to the Spiritas Resistance."

Elder Xie Tianzun laughed heartily as he said to all the men that were looking at Xiao Muhan, "Everyone would have a chance to contribute to the cause of the Spiritas Resistance too. What is your name, young Spiritas?"

Xiao Muhan laughed heartily as he proclaimed himself, "Xiao Muhan. You may call me Master Xiao. Haha…"

Elder Xie Tianzun gave Xiao Muhan a big thumb up before he pointed at Ji Yuan, "How about the man that is standing next to you? How much are you donating to the cause of our great Spiritas Resistance?"

Ji Yuan looked a little sheepish as he took out 100 gold coins as donation, spilling his share on the table in front of everyone. "I still have more gold coins if you value my cause. Hahaha…"

Xiao Muhan muttered weakly to himself: Why did I have to know him in the first place? He isn't ashamed of taking out his gold coins that are only worth a puny 1 low grade spirit stone. It isn't even worth a fraction of 1 high grade spirit stones!

Elder Xie Tianzun and all the men were now staring blankly at the gold coins that were at the table…

Ji Yuan was feeling awkward when he saw the looks that were on their faces. "Hahaha… this is too little?"

Then he took out another 100 gold coins and put it again on the table, "Erm, is this enough now?" 

He still got several thousands of worthless gold coins because he always has some gold coins for paying his wine tabs.

Elder Xie Tianzun blinked his eyes as he stammered hastily, "It is… more than enough…"

Everyone was gasping with great shock…

Ji Yuan awkwardly answered, "I am glad that this is enough. Haha…"

Elder Xie Tianzun stared at him for a moment before he asked, "Young Spiritas, what is your name?"

Ji Yuan did not want to become infamous so he quickly said with an awkward look, "Yuan Ji is my name."

Elder Xie Tianzun slowly said, "So Master Yuan Ji, I think that you are the most fit to be our leader now…"

Ji Yuan was startled as he blinked his eyes: What did he just say?!

Xiang Li was perplexed: What?! Big Brother is most fit to be leader of these men? But these are men and not maidens. Why did Big Brother suddenly have to be interested in men now? 

Fairy Anyang could not believe what she was hearing from Xiang Li as she meditated upon the Golden Natal Divine Pearl: What has just happened? 

All the men were loudly talking among themselves now…

"This Yuan Ji is so rich?!"

"I didn't know that we have such a rich Spiritas in our midst…"

"I don't think that I have ever seen him before…"

"He must be working his ass off from these depraved maidens and that is why we did not notice him previously…"

"He literally donates all his wealth to our great cause…"

"Such a noble Spiritas…"

"Our great spiritas resistance now has a glimmer of hope of succeeding now…"

"All hail Master Yuan Ji…"

"No, you should address him as our Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji now…"

Elder Xie Tianzun began to pat heartily on Ji Yuan as he tried to struggle with his old voice amidst all the commotions.

"I am old now and I think that none of you would be able to come out with a grander donation than Master Yuan Ji here? If not, then he shall be our new Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji to oppose the Divine Consorts. All hail to Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji and our True Devil God!"

Ji Yuan was stunned, "Did I donate a lot?! How much is 1 gold coin equivalent to 1 high grade spirit stone?"

Even Xiao Muhan was stunned and he was secretly asking the same as well; like Ji Yuan, he was in disbelief. 

How come Ji Yuan got to be the rebel leader instead of him?! 

1 million high grade spirit stones is really worth a lot! 

Elder Xie Tianzun sighed, "The price of gold is ever increasing in the Spirit Divine Realm. It can only go up and never go down…"

He started to inspect the weight of the golden coin with his spirit sense, "Each of these gold coins is worth 1 million high grade spirit stones."

When he had announced it, everyone was shocked.

Xiao Muhan was stunned; Ji Yuan had just donated 200 times what he had just donated? 

Ji Yuan almost fainted; did he just donate 200 million high grade spirit stones away?

All of a sudden, he had remembered the startled look that was on Maiden Flower Ju's face; it was not because she had thought that Ji Yuan was too cheapskate but he was really too generous…

Now all this had suddenly made sense to him.

This is the Spirit Divine Realm and not the Celestial Realm.

In the Spirit Divine Realm, spirit stones must be really common but on the other hand, metals like gold which are common in the Celestial Realm is quite rare around here. 

Ji Yuan was suddenly grinning now; it was because he still has several thousands of these gold coins around in his spatial storage…

What if he were to exchange his useless gold coins into high grade spirit stones instead? Then, won't he be the richest man in Snowy Pavilion City instead?

Maybe he can even drown the 4 Divine Consorts with his filthy rich newfound wealth?

This was the first time that Ji Yuan felt so filthy rich!

Elder Xie Tianzun was smiling now, "Let have our new Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji to make his grand speech to us then!"

Ji Yuan laughed heartily as he turned to look at the 300 men that were presented. 

"From now on, our great spiritas race is going to enter into a new era under my charge. We definitely can't allow these depraved maidens to look down upon us or toy with us anymore…"

Ji Yuan began to grin but it was more like showing off to Xiang Li and Anyang.

He said loudly to all, "I don't believe that any of the 4 Divine Consorts will not be moved by my wealth. Everyone has a hidden price that they will be willing to surrender their bodies to. I am going to make the 4 Divine Consorts kowtow between my legs. Haha…"

He was actually thinking more on his trial quest than fighting for the male spiritas.

Luckily for him, his thoughts went unnoticed since they all had the same objectives anyway.

All the men except for Xiao Muhan were now shouting with great fervent, "All hail Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji! All hail Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji!"

Ji Yuan shouted heartily amidst all the hails, "From now on, we will be the griefers that shall make all the maidens and Divine Consorts to grief in Snowy Pavilion City!"

Xiao Muhan was muttering almost incoherently to himself: Ji Yuan, are you playacting too well and forget our disparity with the Divine Consorts?" 

Elder Xie Tianzun was truly delighted and he was patting Ji Yuan heartily, "Great Rebel Leader Yuan Ji, from now onward, you are also the Cult Leader of the True Devil God Sect."

Ji Yuan asked curiously, "You mean I have a religious duty as well?"

Elder Xie Tianzun chuckled in his old voice, "That's right. As our Cult Leader, it is also your duty to burn the Divine Consort as a burning sacrifice to appease the True Devil God."

Ji Yuan immediately frowned, "What if I fail to do so?"

Elder Xie Tianzun solemnly said, "Then we have no other choice but to burn you instead. That is how we have lost our last Great Rebel Leader."

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

When Xiao Muhan had heard Elder Xie Tianzun, he began to mutter with a soft sigh of relief. "Luckily I am not the Great Rebel Leader or the Cult Leader…"

Elder Xie Tianzun continued to say solemnly to Ji Yuan, "It is considered to be a great honor to be sacrificed to the True Devil God. Only the noblest souls among us can revive the True Devil God one day and as cult leader, your soul will naturally be the most noblest of us all. When the True Devil God returns to our Spirit Divine Realm, you will know that your sacrifices will not be in vain…"

J Yuan began to curse loudly but silently: How the heck do I know if my sacrifices will not be in vain when I am already dead?!
