The Romantic Cultivator

A few hours later, Gong Xiaotian had found a ridge that was overlooking the dense forest canopies and had given the order for the cultivators to rest for the night.

More than a third of the cultivators had injuries on them and they needed a quiet place to absorb the spiritual aura as profound energies to treat their injuries.

The vanguard teams had actually encountered more of the desolate monsters before they break for camp. But Ji Yuan's Team 10 and 4 were spared from the encounters.

And so were the combined rear team.

Even Ji Yuan had to admit that Gong Xiaotian's strategies made sense since he was leading the vanguard teams to protect him.

He was thinking; Alas! He's actually a real hero. Look at me. I shouldn't doubt a nice guy like him. I am so petty. What happened earlier was only an accident. I should look at it if I were in his shoes.

Immediately after the entire faction had settled down in a defensive circle around the ridge, Ji Yuan was suddenly showered with plenty of affections from Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng and Yu Jingjing.

They immediately asked about his injuries and showered him with more profound pills.

"Haha." Ji Yuan chuckled. "I've still got many leftover profound pills…"

"My lord, are you alright?"

"How are your injuries?"

"Please take care of yourself!"

"Sorry, we just don't like that Yun Chi. She is too cocky…"

Ji Yuan laughed and enjoyed their affections; women are sure hard to predict.

Only Feng Minyue was too shy to display her affections for Ji Yuan.

While Ji Yuan was thinking that he had negative impression left for Maiden Feng Minyue now, she on the other hand was also thinking that she had misunderstood and taken Ji Yuan's words too light on a number of occasions; she was also thinking that Ji Yuan had a low impression of her as well.

Also after she had kissed Ji Yuan on his lips, she still did not know how he had felt about her.

Even though she had emphasized that it was only a harmless kiss but she had never kissed anyone on the lips before, even if she wanted to repay her gratitude.

It was only an excuse that she had cooked to test Ji Yuan's reactions.

And Ji Yuan was too gentleman.

She was even thinking, maybe that was because he had liked Yu Jingjing who is also a superior beauty. And his fingers toward Yu Jingjing were not clean and he had outraged Yu Jingjing in front of so many of the maidens.

If Ji Yuan could hear her thoughts, he would protest bitterly; at that time I was under the influence of the five masculine profound pills and had lost control of my fingers.

But of course, Feng Minyue would question him why he had not lost control in front of her when she had kissed him.

Ji Yuan actually respected Feng Minyue a lot and it took him all his willpower to resist doing anything funny to her.

Although Feng Minyue had tried to hide her feelings from Ji Yuan but the other five maidens were not fools; they have already known that Feng Minyue is interested in Ji Yuan and that they are all watching how the drama is to unfold.

Ling Feiyue had told Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and Yu Jingjing not to intervene, just to see how dense Ji Yuan was.

Moreover as she warned them jokingly, she was also dropping a hint to Shui Xisi that they had all known about Ji Yuan and her.

Shui Xisi just did not want to admit that she was an item with Ji Yuan even though she had been caught by the other maidens on quite a few occasions already.

Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng had been following Ji Yuan's affair with Shui Xisi even before they had entered the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

Actually Shui Xisi may look to be a very bold maiden but she is also a very shy maiden; she wants Ji Yuan to profess his love for her boldly and not the other way round.

Even though Ji Yuan had mentioned he would take her to be his main consort but he was always saying it in a half-joking manner and Xisi felt that he was not sincere at all.

Moreover Ji Yuan did not know her real status and who she really is.

She has often cursed Ji Yuan in her heart; You are a buffoon. You've no idea how lucky you're. Alas, my Sister Feifei and I…alas…are both ruined in your hands."

Feng Minyue had quietly approached Ji Yuan and said, "Ji Yuan, your injuries are not light at all. I can use my profound energies to hasten your recovery."

Ji Yuan chuckled loudly as he patted his chest, "I'm really alright."

In front of Feng Minyue, he had to pretend to be a man of steel. In this way, he would earn her respect or else she would think that he is a puss.

Xiang Li giggled inside Ji Yuan's soul sea, "Big Brother, if I were you, I would let Maiden Feng massage her fingers all over my body."

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

"Xiang Li, do you know that you are actually so lame as to think of this low method to win a maiden's sympathy? Do you know what is a man's pride?"

Xiang Li giggled back, "But I'm a maiden. What is a man's pride?"

Ji Yuan: …

"I don't want to talk to you for the rest of the night."

Then Ji Yuan pretended to be in great pain, "Ahh, my chest hurts…"

Fairy Anyang, Xiang Li: …

Fairy Anyang muttered weakly, "This master is also quite lame…"

"Ji Yuan, are you alright?" Shui Xisi was the first to answer to Ji Yuan's chest pain.

She began to chuckle delightfully as she began to hit Ji Yuan's chest, "Let me help you with your pain."

Ji Yuan: …

Are you sure that you are helping to treat my injuries or you are helping to worsening it…

Bai Qianfeng melancholy said to Ji Yuan, "My lord, do you know how anxious I am when you offer yourself to fight these desolate monsters on your own. I really wish that I can fight alongside with you. I'm not weak…"

"You're not weak but we are." Little Princess said quietly. "Ji Yuan is more concern about our lives than his."

Ji Yuan had suddenly kept quiet; he doesn't want to reveal his innermost thoughts. He is an alpha male and this is what he is supposed to do for his beloveds!

Yu Jingjing was smiling, "I am right in choosing you as my lord. Ji Yuan is the hero of my heart."

Ling Feiyue was holding Ji Yuan's hand gently and she was also looking with great gentleness at him, "That is why Ji Yuan is our lord."

Yu Jingjing agreed with a light nod, "That is very heroic of him."

Ji Yuan smiled weakly before he muttered, "I didn't really do anything heroic. Haha."

Then he turned to look at Shui Xisi to say, "After defeating so many seventh rank desolate monsters today, I really feel that I'm stronger than Jiajia. She is going to be so in awe of my awesomeness."

Shui Xisi rolled her eyes before she pinched his chest as she giggled, "I don't think so."

Ji Yuan chuckled, "I don't believe you either."

Shui Xisi: …

My sister won't even bat her eyes against these seventh rank desolate monsters and she is a stronger cultivator than I am.

Ji Yuan had no idea that Jiajia had just killed dozens of seventh rank desolate monsters when she had gone to seek the Dragon God Longdi for her vendetta while he was inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

Little Princess suddenly lowered her voice to whisper to everyone, "Actually I've an uneasy feeling about this trial. Especially that Yun Chi."

Bai Qianfeng nodded, "I, too have an uneasy feeling but I've no idea why. She is more dangerous than she looks somehow. This is just my inner feeling."

"My lord Ji Yuan, you ought to be wary of her and not to be too close to her." Ling Feiyue sighed softly. "I am not against you having more harem but surely you can also tell that all of us can't even get along with her, am I right?"

Ji Yuan nodded as he looked sentimentally at all six maidens as he assured them with heartfelt emotion, "Don't worry. I'm not interested in her even if she is the most beautiful maiden in the Celestial Realm. Other than my own party, I've no interest in the other maidens."

Feng Minyue was startled as she trembled lightly; did he include me as well? Or I am just the special case.

All of a sudden Ji Yuan's sharp eyes had caught the Silver Holy Maiden Qin Shuang making a pass on him; she had quietly glanced in his direction before she had disappeared into the shadows of the surroundings.

Ji Yuan quickly got up as he said, "Excuse me for a while."

And he had immediately sped after the trail of the Silver Holy Maiden Qin Shuang.

This was not lost on the six maidens because they had all seen Maiden Qin Shuang walking past earlier and she was looking at Ji Yuan.

And Ji Yuan had so conveniently excused himself.

Shui Xisi cursed softly, "I'm not going to believe in that badass anymore."

"A pretty maiden just walk and he has so quickly excused himself to chase after a new skirt." Yu Jingjing was in disbelief.

Ling Feiyue kicked the ground, "Ji Yuan is too lecherous!"

Bai Qianfeng muttered, "Did he just say that he has no other interest in the other maidens except for his own party? And he is off to chasing skirts in the next minute."

Little Princess was shaking her head with soft resignations, "Despite his heavy injuries, he is still capable of thinking with his lower body."

Then she added, "I just know that there is something between them."

Ling Feiyue gasped, "Maybe we have misunderstood that Maiden Yun Chi. Rather Ji Yuan is having an affair with this Maiden Qin Shuang instead?"

"You don't say." Little Princess frowned. "But Sister Feiyue, I think that you're right. Didn't we hear that this Maiden Qin Shuang had violated Ji Yuan's body earlier? And she was asking Ji Yuan to whip her too..."

Everyone was gasping all of a sudden when they had recalled the conversations that were between Qin Shuang and Ji Yuan.

Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly, "Maybe we should really teach Ji Yuan a lesson instead."

"Maybe I should help my sisters here to castrate him?" Shui Xisi offered a hopeful suggestion.

But she was quickly smiling weakly, "Hey, don't look at me like this. I was only joking…"
