The Romantic Cultivator

The next day, Ji Yuan had bumped into Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing at the same time.

He had thought that Feng Minyue would be upset with him but to his surprise, she was actually quite amicable toward him.

"Is this the calm before the storm?" He could not help thinking over it.

He had thought that even Yu Jingjing would be giving him a slap or two after he had lost control in front of her but to his surprise, Yu Jingjing was actually quite amicable toward him as well.

After a while he began to calm down even though he could not help feeling suspicious about their 'intentions'.

It was as though nothing had happened earlier.

All they asked were, "Are you really alright? You shouldn't have used your life force energies. It is harmful to your life force."

He replied awkwardly, "I'm actually alright. Don't you worry about that or me."

Yu Jingjing hummed softly, "All men like to put on a brave front because they value their faces more than their lives."

Feng Minyue was also saying. "Pride is worth nothing. You can only live once. Just concede if you have to. You won't lose your bonded divine sword."

Ji Yuan smiled weakly; actually I am more concern about the debt that I've owed to the trial and I can't borrow from anyone because I am a sword saint with my own pride. This is my debt and I ought to repay it on my own.

But he said, "Let's go to the battle arena to watch the fights between the cultivators first."

Feng Minyue nodded as she knew that Ji Yuan had to show his face so that his beloved maidens would know that he was alright.

While Ji Yuan was absented, his beloved maidens were throwing their little tantrums on the other cultivators, especially Shui Xisi.

Only Ji Yuan was able to calm them down with his presence because he had a most important place in their hearts.

Indeed.

When Ji Yuan had arrived in the battle arena, his beloved maidens had all put on a pleasant countenance and even Shui Xisi was quite merciful to her opponent.

It was because Ji Yuan had regained most of his colors and was no longer looking quite frail.

At the end of the day Ji Yuan was also pleased that his beloved maidens had all won their victories and had obtained their wings.

As he watched their battles, he was sighing; they are not ruthless in their attacks enough. If their opponent is on par with them then they will not have such an easy fight. But weirdly, how come their opponents seem to be fearing them or is it because their opponents are all gentlemen that are just purposely giving way to the weaker sex?

What Ji Yuan did not know is that his beloved maidens had been quite ruthless and bad tempered in their attacks just a few days ago.

Ji Yuan said coolly. "Tomorrow I will show them my greatest."

"Why don't you take a few days of rest first?" Yu Jingjing immediately asked him. "Don't force yourself to fight if you are unwell."

"I've to agree with Maiden Yu." Feng Minyue nodded.

"Haha. I'm actually well." Ji Yuan said firmly as he patted his chest to prove himself.

But all of a sudden his nose was bleeding again and dripping blood.

Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue were both gasping with shock.

Many of the cultivators from the Fire Faction who were following Ji Yuan with their eyes were also startled.

"Ji Yuan is suffering from internal injuries for sure…"

"It must be the result of using his life force energies as a gambit…"

"His days may be numbered…"

"But he is looking much better than previously…"

"It is just the calmness before the storm. He looks alright only but only briefly before he will completely succumb to his injuries…"

Ji Yuan smiled weakly as he cleaned his blood from his face, "Trust me. I'm really alright. Haha…"

He did not dare to tell anyone that it was all due to the masculine pills that he had taken and not because he was suffering from any internal injuries.

All of a sudden he was quite startled to notice that Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were both holding his arms at the same time…

In the Fire Faction, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing were two of the most beautiful maidens.

By now everyone had already known that Feng Minyue was an astonishing beauty because her veil had been torn off by her opponent in the battle arena just a few days ago.

This caused Ji Yuan to be the envy of many of the cultivators from the Fire Faction.

Ji Yuan was blinking his eyes and he did not know what to do all of a sudden…

"Erm, this place is a little crowded. Why don't we take a little walk elsewhere?" Ji Yuan suggested awkwardly.

"Anything you say." Both maidens said at the same time.

Ji Yuan was truly startled; anything that I say? How about my room then?

But instead he was saying, "Haha. Maybe we can find Senior Mo Bei or we can visit the Wing Cultivation Hall. What do you think?"

Both maidens answered at the same time. "Anything you say."

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

I've given them two options and they still reply me the same…and I didn't even suggest any specific…how come they are so nice to me today? Didn't I screw myself up badly?

But Ji Yuan was smiling again as he thought with a wry smile; it is said that when a person is down on his fortunes, he will have lady luck instead. This seems to be so true. Haha…

So he answered them. "Why don't we just walk romantically around the Jade Mansion instead? As for Senior Mo Bei, he isn't important. Haha."

"Anything you say." Both maidens answered together with a smile.
