The Romantic Cultivator



Zhan Wuji really did not dare to travel with his patriarch the White Sword Monarch so he had departed with the other cultivators. 

As for the White Sword Monarch, he had decided to stick with Ji Yuan and his two daughters, Chu Lixue and Yang Mi. 

Lu Qingyun, Leng Qiuyue, Ye Jing and Fan Yuqing bade farewell to Ji Yuan and his group as they had decided to explore elsewhere in the other sections of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

But not before Fan Yuqing had teased Shui Xisi, "Heehee, remember to have some 'fun'."

Fun in the eyes of Fan Yuqing actually had another meaning because she used to be the Devil Goddess that had terrorized everyone. 

Shui Xisi was not dumb as she returned a meaningful smile, "I will."

Fan Yuqing and Ye Jing had also bade farewell to Feng Minyue. 

Fan Yuqing quietly said and there was a spark of sorrow in her golden eyes, "This Ji Yuan is really too lucky to have captured my best friend to his side…"

The golden eyes of Feng Minyue were shimmering as she gave Fan Yuqing a tight embrace; the two of them had been close sisters for centuries and had even taken turn to masquerade as the Devil Goddess to confuse their enemies. 

They had many moments of fun and epic stories together (See the Fluffy Cultivation and The Good For Nothing Cultivator). 

Fan Yuqing muttered to Feng Minyue, "I still remember the good old times when Xuan Danfeng and you are around…"

Feng Minyue smiled, "Don't forget that you got the other sisters now too. Qian Jingjing, Tang Xuefeng and Yue Lingxi are all waiting outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth for you."

Fan Yuqing hummed softly, "Tang Xuefeng is a crybaby and the others lack your guts…"

Ye Jing interrupted with a smile as she looked at Lu Qingyun, "Well, you have me now. Don't you?" 

Fan Yuqing rolled her golden eyes, "I guess that I will be struck with my old arch enemy for a long, long time…" 

Leng Qiuyue was in awe of both Fan Yuqing and Ye Jing as she quietly stood next to Lu Qingyun but she was looking blissful. 

Finally, Fan Yuqing and her group had departed, leaving Shui Xisi and Feng Minyue to stay behind with Ji Yuan. 

  Only the White Sword Monarch, Mo Bei, Qin Shuang and Xiao Muhan were now left with Ji Yuan and his group. 

Ji Yuan laughed as he said to Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan, "You are not leaving for other places?"

Mo Bei laughed jovially as he stroked his beautiful beard, "Junior Ji Yuan. Are you hoping that I will leave? Fat hope!"

Xiao Muhan was also smiling while looking at Yun Chi, "There is safety in numbers. This place is getting more and more dangerous. I don't want to die before I can get to reach any of the trials in the upper area."

The trials were not the only places that have dangers. Traversing the vast terrains of the upper areas of the Empyreans Warrior Labyrinth also had its dangers too."

Ji Yuan took a look at Xiao Muhan before laughing out loud, "My friend Xiao Muhan. You are now a living furnace. I don't feel safe with you around my maidens."

Xiao Muhan: …

Xiao Muhan: …

Xiao Muhan: …

Ji Yuan took another look at Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan before he rubbed his chin, "Hmm, let me guess. You have run out of golden talismans now?"

Mo Bei and Xiao Muhan were both laughing weakly as they said almost the same time, "Why are you so smart? Hahahahaha…"

Ji Yuan promptly flashed a golden talisman as he chuckled aloud, "Luckily, I have some spare golden talismans. Hahaha…"

Xiao Muhan and Mo Bei were grinning as they looked at the golden talisman that were in Ji Yuan's fingers.

Xiao Muhan muttered, "You have only one talisman to spare?"

Ji Yuan laughed as he had suddenly turned and placed the golden talisman into Qin Shuang's hands, "Maiden Qin Shuang, this is for you. After all, we have known each other for some time already."

Qin Shuang was startled, "Young Master Ji Yuan, this is too valuable. I can't accept this…"

But Ji Yuan insisted as he waved for her to keep it, "This is a spare. And don't call me Young Master. Just call me Ji Yuan. Hahaha…"

Qin Shuang sighed softly before bowing with both her hands, "Thank you…" 

Xiao Muhan was speechless, "Hey Brother Ji Yuan. Aren't we the best of friends? We have known each other for a long time… where is my golden talisman?"

Mo Bei was also frowning, "Do you still remember that my grand-niece Xue Qianxue is your consort? In short, we are relatives."

Ji Yuan turned to look at them and pretended to frown, "Do you know that golden talismans are worth more than any cultivation profound treasures in this place? With the golden talismans, you will be able to have a grab at the lucky occurrence in this place. If I give you my golden talismans, then I won't have enough golden talismans to complete the trials in this place…"

Then he turned to look at the maidens behind his back, "I still remember that no one has ever completed the final trial of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth but I have the intention of being the first to do so. Therefore, I will need as many golden talismans as possible."

Mo Bei, Xiao Muhan: …

Mo Bei, Xiao Muhan: …

Mo Bei, Xiao Muhan: …

Ji Yuan was only joking with them; he did not want anyone to die in this trial, especially the friends that he had known. But he just wanted to be a badass as long as possible. 

He pretended to ignore them as he turned with a grin to the White Sword Monarch, "Old man…"

The White Sword Monarch frowned as he hit Ji Yuan on his head, "Little Rascal. You dare to call your old master an old man. Where are your manners?"

Ji Yuan protested almost immediately, "Hahaha, I've always called you my old man. Why are your mood so foul today?"

The White Sword Monarch frowned as he stared at Ji Yuan, "I'm always foul in my moods. Is this the first day that you have known me?"

He was actually looking at Ji Yuan's injuries and was saying bitterly, "You can still laugh in your condition? If it is not because of my fierce trainings that I have made you to do, you would be dead by now!"

Ji Yuan chuckled, "Yes, yes. For sure. Hahaha…"

He knew that this was his old man's way of showing his concerns for him.

"Old man, look at what this is first." 

Ji Yuan had taken out the Immortal Ascension Profound Pill and had gently put it into the short old man aka the White Sword Monarch's hands. 

The White Sword Monarch was startled as he could feel that this was a miracle profound pill. 

Or rather this was actually an immortal miracle profound pill! 

Ji Yuan grinned as he said, "Old man. This is the Immortal Ascension Profound Pill and it will ensure a smooth ascension to the Immortal Realm."

The White Sword Monarch began to frown unhappily and he had made the gesture of returning the profound pill to Ji Yuan, "This is too valuable and is your trial reward. I can't take your lucky occurrence away…"

"No, my old man." Ji Yuan had interrupted him and pushed back the profound pill back to the White Sword Monarch. 

He said firmly, "I know that you have expended much of your cultivation strength to overstay in the Celestial Realm because all these years, you have been trying to look for your daughter. Although you may be formidable in the Celestial Realm but I doubt that you have any spiritual energies left in your inner spiritual sea to make it through your ascension. I know that you don't care about your life and death but I want you to live a little longer."

The Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue and Yang Mi had also surrounded the White Sword Monarch; they were tugging his sleeves and were nodding to him. 

The White Sword Monarch muttered awkwardly as he looked at Ji Yuan and the other maidens with him, "Frankly speaking, I've lived long enough and I don't mind being turned into a valuable heaven relic when my ascension fails. Why don't you give it to a worthy maiden among your future consorts instead?"

But Ji Yuan began to laugh heartily and the other maidens in his group were also laughing jovially along with him.

They were all saying at the same time in unison, "We are still young and so we don't need it."

The White Sword Monarch pretended to be angry, "What? Are you saying that I am an old fellow here?! Where are your manners?" 

Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng returned a jeer, "We are immortals. Don't include us into your squabbles!" 

In Ji Yuan's soul sea, Xiang Li was dreamingly thinking of the canvas imageries that she had seen in the earlier trial. 

"Isn't that my Big Brother's ex-girlfriend? No, my Big Brother's girlfriend now. Why is she there? And isn't that my Big Brother in the canvas imageries too? Why is he wearing a hideous iron mask to cover his handsome face?"

She had tried to tell Ji Yuan but no words could be formed when she had tried to mention this to her Big Brother.
