The Romantic Cultivator

The Pentecost Mountains, at the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect.

Thousands of cultivators had gathered panicky outside the buildings of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect when a bright explosion was seen from thousands of miles away.

This bright explosion was so brilliant that shockwaves of its profound energies could be felt throughout the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and the surrounding vicinity, shocking many.

And this bright explosion did not even not cease when it exploded but continued to burn like a secondary sun but it was bigger and brighter than any sun. 

Ling Feiyue, Xue Qianxue and Little Princess stormed out panicky together as they were having a meeting on a general strategy as they gasped, "We are under an attack?"

In another palace building; Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue, Sword Saintess Yuluo and Ling Tianshui were seen rushing out panicky together as they were managing the troublesome cultivation sect's affairs. 

They were followed by Zhi Jiugong, the Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress, Tang Manni, Little Jie'Er and Shui Qingqing as they were all chatting together in the hall when the explosion had suddenly occurred. As a matter of fact, they were all talking about Ji Yuan and how bad he was in leaving them alone while he had gone off to fight the Great Demon God. This group was just gossiping about Ji Yuan.

The other main group was the Great Immortal Rohan, the Goddess Alissa and the Immortal Fairy Lucia as they panicky sped to the outside of their temporary palace when they had heard of the sudden explosion and the shockwaves of this profound energies were massive! 

"The Great Demon God has attacked?!" The Great Immortal Rohan gasped with great fear as he asked the Goddess Alyssa. "Just as I've thought, this Sword Saint Ji Yuan isn't even considered to be an opponent of the Great Demon God. We ought to flee sooner than later."

The Goddess Alyssa stared at the residue of the explosion that left behind a burning sun in the horizon, "This may be a secret weapon of the Great Demon God. Although this explosion is far away and is thousands of miles away, we can still feel it. I am afraid that the surrounding vicinity of this explosion is now being grinded turned into ashes. Nothing will live in that profound explosion, not even a true god. This Ji Yuan is surely dead for sure."

The Immortal Fairy Lucia asked with a startled look, not believing that Ji Yuan was now dead. "Maybe it is a battle between the Great Demon God and the Death God Mingwang? And one of them exploded their cultivation core?"

The Goddess Alyssa shook her head, "This is bigger than the self-detonation of a true god."

"Maybe it is the self-detonation of two true gods?" The Immortal Fairy Lucia sighed woefully. "Maybe it is the Sword Saint Ji Yuan that forces them into this state?"

The Great Immortal Rohan was amused by the Immortal Fairy Lucia's words, "Your conclusion doesn't make any sense at all. That Sword Saint Ji Yuan won't survive even against one true god. If there are two true gods, he won't even know how he would die. Are you hoping that the Sword Saint Ji Yuan would be able to win?"

The Immortal Fairy Lucia displayed a flushed look, "It isn't that. I am hoping that the Sword Saint Ji Yuan may be able to win so that our immortal race will be able to avert this calamity."

"In any case, the Sword Saint Ji Yuan is now dead." The Goddess Alyssa said quietly. "So it is now time for us to leave this place now. Or else it will be difficult to leave later since the Sword Saint Ji Yuan is now dead and there is no one left to distract the Great Demon God. So much for this temporary alliance."

The Great Immortal Rohan nodded, "Let's go. The Great Demon God will be here in no time. I don't want to die. I've already created the lookalike puppets of ourselves. Let these celestial cultivators be our cannon fodders while we flee."

Then he said to the Immortal Fairy Lucia as he looked at her enticing figure and beautiful face, "Fairy Lucia, you ought to come with us too. Don't worry, I'll take care of you from now onward. Heehee…"

In the meantime, the rest of Ji Yuan's maidens had also gathered together and many of them were in tears.

It was because they had all concluded that Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Shui Xisi and Xu Yifei must have all perished in this huge profound explosion that was in the sky and they were weeping loudly.

The thousands of cultivators were also in great despair when they saw that their leaders were weeping aloud.

This only mean one thing to them and that is that Ji Yuan is now dead.

The Sword Saint Ji Yuan is now dead!

Wailing cries of despairs, mourning and lamentations began to reach out to the heavens from the thousand of cultivators who had all given up hope on defeating the Great Demon God.

All of a sudden, a bright white profound circle had suddenly appeared on the platform and the spatial space was shifted in that place. Then five shadowy figures began to step out from this profound circle which had shifted the 5 of them in this place.

Many were shocked when they saw a portal was opening right before their own eyes. 

"The Great Demon God is here?!"

"We are doomed?!"

"They are here so fast?!"

Even the Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa had turned ashen as they never thought that the Great Demon God would tear through the fabrics of space to teleport right into their midst.

This type of profound teleportation was a high level immortal cultivation that only a few immortals would be able to know and even mastered.

If it was not the Great Demon God, then who was it?

That was also what Ji Yuan's maidens had thought so as well when the profound circle had suddenly appeared and they had never really seen Xu Yifei using it. 

Xu Yifei had actually used her Traverse Transference Divine Array only when she was traveling to the Celestial Realm.

At that time, she was completely exhausted after she had used it due to the vast distances that she had to travel between the heavenly realms of her Divine Spirit Realm and the Celestial Realm.

But luckily for now, it was only for a short distance of a few thousand miles and she was able to bring additional people with her. 

The effort to do so, was still quite exhausting for her and that was why she had a weary look as she stepped out of the white profound circle.

Also, appearing with her was Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Shui Xisi and Ding Xiaoxiao.

Many of the cultivators did not recognize who Ding Xiaoxiao was but Shangguan Yan, Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shui Qingqing had turned pale almost immediately because they had recognized Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao as the one that had almost killed them.

The Great Immortal Rohan, the Immortal Fairy Lucia and the Goddess Alyssa were all shocked to see that Ji Yuan was still alive but they were even more shocked to see Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao with Ji Yuan.

The Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa cursed Ji Yuan almost at the same time, "This Ji Yuan has actually betrayed us to the Great Demon God and has brought Number 1 back here to slaughter all of us!"

The reason why they were all cursing Ji Yuan at the same time was because they could not believe that Number 1 would betray the Great Demon God as she was renowned for her great loyalty toward him.

Many of the thousands of cultivators were thinking that they may be seeing a ghost when Ji Yuan had suddenly appeared. 

The Smiling Divine Maiden, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress were all shocked to see Ji Yuan but they were also delighted at the same time to see him coming back with their mistress Yun Chi. 

"Ji Yuan! Mistress!"

Tang Manni gasped, "Sister Yifei, you are back…"

Shui Qingqing was weeping halfway when she saw her Matriarch Shui Xisi and Ji Yuan were now back and her emotions had change to weeping tears of happiness instead. 

There were great confusions and mix emotions as Ji Yuan stepped out of the white profound circle.

Ji Yuan grinned as he looked at everyone that was all crowding around his group, "What? Are you not surprise to see me?"

Ling Feiyue stammered as she seized to ask, "Ji Yuan, you are… alive? And what is that explosion?" 

Ji Yuan chuckled aloud, "Isn't this obvious? I have defeated the Great Demon God and has sent him packing back to his Desolate Immortal Realm."

Ji Yuan's words stunned everyone, his maidens and the most stunned was naturally the Great Immortal Rohan and the Goddess Alyssa who did not think that he would be able to win against the Great Demon God!

Even the Immortal Fairy Lucia was also stunned but she was also looking with great coquettishly at Ji Yuan. If it was not for the thousands of cultivators that were all crowding around Ji Yuan, she would have jumped into his embrace to offer him her congratulations for his victory.

Ji Yuan's words stunned everyone and there was great general disbelief.

The Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu could not resist asking, "You aren't joking, am I right?"

She was actually echoing the thoughts of Ji Yuan's maidens here and even many of the cultivators. 

Ji Yuan frowned, "Do I look like I am joking?"

Yun Chi said with some awkwardness to the Lovely Empress, "Ji Yuan has indeed defeated the Great Demon God and the Evil Cultivation Palace. They are no longer a threat anymore."

Even Shui Xisi was nodding as she chuckled softly, "We have won! We have defeated the Great Demon God!"

Ji Yuan immediately turned to her to frown with a playful look, "It is me, not you. I have won!"

Shui Xisi immediately kicked Ji Yuan down the platform, "Without our help, you won't be able to defeat the Great Demon God, stupid hero. And we have just saved your ass. Why don't you die now, Ji Yuan?" 

In Ji Yuan's weaken state and moreover he could not really move too well, he was kicked down and crashed flat onto the ground that was below the platform.

Yun Chi smiled to Shui Xisi, "I guess that you have killed our hero now."

Shui Xisi protested immediately, "He won't die from a fall. I don't know what he is made of but he is a tough nut to crack." 

Ji Yuan murmured weakly as he lay on the ground, "I will settle this score with you later, Sisi…" 

All of Ji Yuan's maidens including Shui Qingqing were all panicky surrounded Ji Yuan to help him up and to shower him with all kinds of affections much to the displeasure of Shui Xisi as she muttered, "It is only a small fall. I didn't use any force and it is not like he will die. Why are you all so concern for him about?"
