The Romantic Cultivator

The next day.

Hua Wuwu, Hua Baiyue and Shui Xisi were alone as they explored the secret room in the Ice Phoenix Hall together.

Hua Wuwu smiled to Shui Xisi, "So, how is your quarrel with Ji Yuan last night? Did he yield to you or not?"

Shui Xisi chuckled softly, "I've beaten him to a pulp. Next time he won't dare to raise his voice against me."

Hua Baiyue smiled weakly, "I saw him in the corridor looking fine and he was talking with a Maiden by the name of Ruan Songci."

Shui Xisi was startled, "Who is she? How come I didn't know that he has a new flirt?"

Hua Baiyue smiled, "Although this Ruan Songci is a really beautiful maiden but she isn't his new flirt. I saw him arguing with her instead."

Shui Xisi frowned, "Then she is his new flirt."

Hua Baiyue: …

She weakly said, "Why do you say that?"

Shui Xisi was also smiling weakly as she was only pretending to quarrel with Ji Yuan so she had assumed that this Maiden Ruan Songci was also pretending to quarrel with him.

"Anyway, what are they quarrelling about?" Shui Xisi asked Hua Baiyue.

Hua Baiyue smiled, "Ji Yuan was asking her to change his swordplay ranking to number 1 in the top 100 ranking but this Maiden Ruan Songci could not change it for him and she was trying to explain to him why she could not."

Shui Xisi frowned, "Why not? Since Ji Yuan has already defeated the Great Demon God, his profound sword art should be in the top 100 ranking."

Hua Baiyue laughed softly, "This Maiden Ruan Songci explained to Ji Yuan that she had never seen his new profound sword arts before and she can't make any decision on that. Moreover his own cultivation sect swordplay has seen more defeats than victories so it is currently out of the top 100 swordplay now."

Hua Wuwu giggled, "I have to agree with Maiden Ruan Songci on this. Just because Ji Yuan is good with his cultivation sect's swordplay, it doesn't mean that Shangguan Yan or her protégés are good. The ranking is based on the average index score of the numerous cultivators that are using the same swordplay. Not everyone will be good in that and it doesn't prove that the swordplay is good."

Shui Xisi frowned, "I see now…"

She did not really cared for the top 100 ranking of the profound arts in the Desolate Celestial Fraternity and she had never thought that Ji Yuan would be so picky as to quarrel to get into the top 100 swordplay ranking. This was too lame...

"He is a little too shameless," Shui Xisi was forced to admit that Ji Yuan had actually tried to squeeze his swordplay into the top 100 ranking.

Hua Baiyue giggled softly, "He is a master and moreover, no one is really impressed with his cultivation sect's swordplay. Maybe his unique profound sword arts can be in the top 100 profound sword art ranking but he was arguing to get his Orthodox Sword Sect's Major Heavens Sword back into the top 100 swordplay ranking again. I must say that he is really lame."

Shui Xisi frowned, "Why is that I got a bad feeling about this? I think he is really flirting with that Maiden Ruan Songci instead…"

All of a sudden Hua Wuwu had unlocked the secret room in the Ice Phoenix Hall and a profound array in the shape of a shimmering blue portal had appeared.

This interrupted Shui Xisi from her thoughts and also startled Hua Baiyue as well.

The three of them then nodded at one another before they stepped into the blue shimmering portal.

Shui Xisi continued to muttered as she stepped into the blue shimmering portal, "Ji Yuan is so hateful. Why are there so many maidens that like this rascal? Well I don't…"

When she had said that, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were both weakly looking at each other.

Shui Xisi was their protégé mistress' sister and they know that she won't cast off her disguise as an old maiden to follow Ji Yuan around. 

If she did then it means that Ji Yuan had already captured her interest. 

If not, judging by Shui Xisi's temperament, she would have left a long time ago. 

Everyone knows that Shui Xisi was in Ji Yuan's room for the entire night and not all the maidens believe that they would actually quarrel for the entire night until the wee morning.

The room inside the shimmering blue portal was not big at all; it was just a small room and many cultivation slips in it.

In there, there was also a table and a dusty book. 

Shui Xisi picked up the book to scroll it and was startled that it was actually her Sister Feifei's diary; in it was her records on how she had come to take notice of Ji Yuan. In fact, this diary only talked about Ji Yuan. 

In this diary, her Sister Feifei also wrote about how she had secretly helped Ji Yuan to breakthrough to his saint cultivation by secretly planting high grade spirit stones for him. 

There were tears in Shui Xisi's golden eyes as she read the diary while muttered to herself: Ji Yuan, you are so stupid…

Hua Wuwu asked quietly when she saw that Shui Xisi was weeping, "What is this book about?" 

Shui Xisi sighed softly, "This is my sister's diary. I think she wants me to have it…"

Then she looked around the room, "There are many cultivation slips in this room. The two of you may have it since the two of you are her core protégés and also her successor."

As she said that, she began to hug the diary of her sister close to her bosoms as she muttered, "These are all my sister's precious memories…. I think she wants me to know how she had met Ji Yuan… but they are unable to be together now…"

All of a sudden, Hua Wuwu gasped with shock and it startled both Shui Xisi and Hua Baiyue.

"What is it?" Hua Baiyue asked.

Even Shui Xisi was curious as she looked at Hua Wuwu.

Hua Wuwu asked them, "Do you remember how the Great Beyond Goddess had called us when she showed us about this room?"

Hua Baiyue nodded, "Wuwu, Baiyue and Sisi…"

This time round even Shui Xisi was startled, "The Great Beyond Goddess had called us by our personal names and called me Sisi as well… Sisi is my pet name and no one but my Sister Feifei and Ji Yuan will call me Sisi…"

Hua Wuwu interrupted, "This isn't the strangest part too. How did the Great Beyond Goddess knows about this personal room? And she can even give us the permission to enter this personal room?"

"That's right…" Hua Baiyue was also pondering now, "At that time, we are all so affected by the awe of the Great Beyond Goddess that we did not notice this. In fact, we won't even be able to notice this at all if Hua Wuwu didn't even think about this."

Hua Wuwu said, "Maybe I am overthinking this? Or maybe our mistress had prayed to the Great Beyond Goddess for help?" 

Shui Xisi was muttering to herself, "Sister Feifei, you… are still around?"

Actually, when the Great Beyond Goddess had appeared yesterday, she had actually felt intimate and easy in her presence; at that time she had no words to explain that. 

In fact, her true phoenix bloodline was also feeling quite excited and that she had even awakened the soul core of her Xiao Ruan, causing her to be revived in her soul core.

Shui Xisi had actually made a daring assumption and that the Great Beyond Goddess was actually her Sister Feifei! 

Although this was not logical possible but her closeness that she had felt when her Sister Feifei was near, cannot be mistaken because they were twins and she was actually her younger sister! 

Also, only her Sister Feifei will call her Sisi as she is her Sister Sisi.

Come to think of this, Xiao Ruan's soul core has revived because she could sense the presence of her Sister Feifei as they are soul linked together. 

That would explain why Xiao Ruan has now been revived all of a sudden. 

Shui Xisi had traveled with Dream Mist and she was the Great Beyond Goddess but Dream Mist was not her Sister Feifei for sure because her Sister Feifei was still in the Celestial Realm. 

There are two Great Beyond Goddesses or?

Shui Xisi was lost on how to decipher this mystery…
