The Romantic Cultivator

The forces that belonged to the Evil Cultivation Palace did retreat, startling Shui Xisi, the Death God Mingwang, Xue Qianxue, Ling Feiyue and the others. 

This temporary peace treaty was signed by a binding soul agreement between the Evil Cultivation God and Lu Qingyun. 

With that, the Evil Cultivation Palace and its allies began to retreat from the vicinity. 

When the Goddess Alyssa returned to the Evil Cultivation Palace, she was furious and began to storm into the throne room of the Evil Cultivation God.

"What is the meaning of this? We have almost got all of them. Don't you want to obtain Little Princess and Xue Qianxue for yourself? Why are you allowing them to flee? You are screwing our carefully laid plans! Why are we afraid of a mere 7th realm cultivator?" 

The Evil Cultivation God said coldly to her, "We have already achieved part of our objectives. Half of the returning golden celestials are either killed or wounded by us while the rest have fled. The ones that have escaped have no base to return to. Some of them may change their minds about joining us later…"

The Goddess Alyssa hummed coldly, "This isn't enough reason. I am doing all these for you and yet you have signed a peace treaty? I don't understand."

The Evil Cultivation God said coldly, "There are 3 main reasons why I am signing this peaceful treaty."

"Firstly, Number 2 has just lost to the Sword Saint Ji Yuan and I am keeping her alive now. It won't be so quickly until she could recover."

"What?!" The Goddess Alyssa was shocked. "This is impossible. She is our trump card against Number 1 and the Death God Mingwang. She has the same cultivation realm as you and the two of you are now the strongest cultivator in the entire Celestial Realm. This Ji Yuan can actually defeat her? I thought that he may be a goner already after he had used that 9th realm profound art against the Evil Cultivation Palace…."

The Evil Cultivation God interrupted coldly, "That is what I have thought so too. But he could still deliver a fatal strike against Number 2."

"But is he dead now?" The Goddess Alyssa asked panicky.'

The Evil Cultivation God answered, "I hope so. This, I have to ask Number 2 later after I have reconstructed a new metamorphosis body for her."

Then he added, "As for the second reason, that Lu Qingyun is the reincarnation of one of the three great gods of our Desolate Immortal Race…"

The Goddess Alyssa gasped with shock, "You don't mean that he is actually…"

The Evil Cultivation God nodded slowly, "We are all his subordinates. He is the one that led us to attack the Nine Heavens in the Ancient City Fortress. Also, he is also the creator of the Asura Cannon and he can stop it from firing as the Asura Cannon contains his true essence."

The Goddess Alyssa broke into a cold sweat, "But why is he helping the celestials? He should be on our side instead."

The Evil Cultivation God shook his head, "This, I do not know. Who can know the minds of a Great God?"

The Goddess Alyssa trembled as she slowly nodded.

The Desolate Immortals have 3 Great Gods that can rival the True Gods of the Desolate Immortal Realm; they are Great God Pangu, the World Ruler Fu Xi and the Great Lord Xuan Yuan.

The Great God that they were talking about referred to the Great Lord Xuan Yuan who is Lu Qingyun now.

In that battle for supremacy over the Nine Heavens, the Desolate Immortals were beaten by the Pangu Immortals and even their Great God Xuan Yuan was killed.

The Desolate Immortals simply could not believe that they would lose to the reincarnated Great God Pangu.

Although the Great God Xuan Yuan was killed but his soul is eternal and he could reincarnate. Eventually he could regain the memories of his past life. The only way for a True God to forget is to kill him again before he could regain his cultivation realm.

The Goddess Alyssa muttered, "Maybe the Great God Xuan Yuan have not regained his memories or else he would surely be on our side."

The Evil Cultivation God slowly nodded, "Regardless, do you know that I have just saved your life? I can sense the killing intents of his true divinity sword against you."

The Goddess Alyssa was further shocked, "What? The Great Lord Xuan Yuan has regained his true divinity sword? Does it mean that he has actually regained his memories?"

She was now convinced why the Evil Cultivation God was willing to sign the peace treaty now. 

"But this is not the main reason. The third reason is the main reason." The Evil Cultivation God sighed heavily.

The Goddess Alyssa blinked her eyes, "What?!"

She had forgotten about the third reason as the second reason was strong enough to warrant the peace treaty.

"What is the third reason then?"

The Evil Cultivation God said coldly, "Number 1 has already seized the Great Desolate Divine Palace and killed all the cultivators that I have placed there. We need to seize back the Great Desolate Divine Palace."

The Goddess Alyssa almost fainted on the spot, "What? Impossible! The Great Desolate Divine Palace is at least 100 000 miles away. We have already closed all the transfer arrays. How can she travel so fast…"

The Evil Cultivation God sighed heavily, "There can't be a transfer array that she can use. Unless…"

Over the years, he had secretly checked the vicinity around the Great Desolate Divine Palace for any secret array points and he was very sure that there were now.

"Unless, someone is working from within the Great Desolate Divine Palace with her and reactivated the existing transfer array for her."

The Goddess Alyssa shook her head, "It is impossible. Everyone knows that Number 1 has no friends. Unless it is the Great Demon God himself."

The Evil Cultivation God had suddenly turned ashen at the casual mention of the Great Demon God.

"Order all profound ships to go at full speed to the Great Forsaken Basin. I don't believe that a lone fallen immortal cultivator would be able to stand up against our might. I must recapture the Great Desolate Divine Palace in the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea at all costs." 

"As for the ground cultivators, order them back to their respective cultivation sects first."

Ji Yuan was still laying on the ground and he was weeping for the very first time in hundreds of years. 

Although he had killed Number 2 but he felt extremely empty within his soul. It was because his Jiajia was dead. 

He sworn to make all the killers of Jiajia pay and he shall uproot the entire Evil Cultivation Palace.

If Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao chooses to remain on the side of the Evil Cultivation Palace then he would kill her as well. 

"Jiajia, you say that we will meet again. But this is but a dream…"

Slowly he picked himself up and dried his tears, having regained some of his profound strength.

He would continue to fight and kill all the evil cultivators…

All of a sudden the gigantic floating citadel of the Evil Cultivation Palace and the accompanying profound ships were all flying away. 

This startled Ji Yuan. 

What was more astonishing was that the phoenix god beast was also returning and there were several maidens on it.

It was not only Ling Feiyue, Little Princes, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress that were returning but he saw Xue Qianxue, Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Shui Qingqing, Ling Tianshui, Hua Baiyue, Hua Wuwu, Sword Saintess Yuluo and Xu Yifei as well.

"Ji Yuan!!!"

"You are still alive?!"

"It is really Ji Yuan!"

Ji Yuan was soon surrounded by all the maidens who were all weeping and looking at him with great tenderness.

"Chengxi, Yan'Er, I am back…"

"Qianxue, I am back…"

"Baiyue, Wuwu…"

"Tianshui, Yuxian (Sword Saintess Yuluo), Qingqing…"

"Great Divine Consort Xu Yifei??!"

Ji Yuan had suddenly seized Xu Yifei, "You are also here??!"

Xu Yifei and the other maidens were all startled by Ji Yuan.

Many of them thought that it was because Ji Yuan had missed Xu Yifei the most instead. 

But what Ji Yuan had said confounded everyone. 

"Jiajia says if I see Xu Yifei in the Celestial Realm then it means my dream isn't a dream. Jiajia says she will see me again if I see Xu Yifei…"

Xu Yifei was looking confused too when Ji Yuan had suddenly said these words to her, "Ji Yuan, I am not your Jiajia…"

But Ji Yuan hugged her tightly as he began to weep emotionally, "Jiajia! I have finally seen you again!"

Xu Yifei: ???

All the maidens: ???

Shui Xisi said uneasily to the other maidens, "The shock of my sister's death is too much for Ji Yuan to handle…"
