The Romantic Cultivator

Chapter 725 Fleeing The Eons Firmament Mountains



In the Desolate Celestial Fraternity;

Hundreds of profound ships were slowly levitating in the thick misty canopy that was high above the mountains of the Desolate Celestial Fraternity.

These profound ships had just departed from the Eons Firmament Mountains.

And on 1 of the main profound ships, there were woeful wails.

ƥαṇdα-ηθνε|·ƈθm It was because this main profound ship had belonged to Saintess Fang Zhenfei and Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue was now in charge. 

With her were some of the maidens that have loved Ji Yuan; Fairy Ye Chengxi, Shangguan Yan, Ling Tianshui, Saintess Yuluo, Shui Qingqing, Fairy Qiu Xiuyu, Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue. 

They were here with their followers and some of them were also the main commanders of their own main profound ships. 

As for Zhao Songjin and Han Yuchi, they were aboard the main profound ship of the Celestial Orthodox Sect and were not here. 

Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were the most grieved; it was because Jiajia was their mistress and when their mistress had died, the pendants on their necks had suddenly broken into pieces. 

Hua Wuwu cried out, "Why didn't mistress not tell us where she is going?! We would have followed her!"

"That's right! I don't want to live anymore. It is so unfair. She only tells Sacred Maiden Xue Qianxue but not us. We are her core protégés and closest friends…" Hua Baiyue wailed aloud and her hot tears flowed down her cheeks. 

Their woeful wailing sounds made the other maidens even more melancholy and sorrowful; it was because they did not know what to do now without Saintess Fang Zhenfei to lead them.

Imagine their startled shock when Xue Qianxue had summoned everyone to tell them to flee from the Eons Firmament Mountains until the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth has ended.

She had told them that this was the final instruction of Saintess Fang Zhenfei to all of them and that she would be challenging the Great Demon God alone to buy everyone the time to fight back when most of the celestials are back from the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

Great Saint Fu Wushuang, First Elder of the Hundred Flower Divine Palace was also in great grief as he said bitterly to Hua Baiyue. "Elder Wei Yidao are her guardians and yet we are unable to protect her… we totally don't deserve to be our saintess' protectors…"

"We have watched her grow up when she is but a child…" Great Saint Wei Yidao the Second Elder of the Hundred Flower Divine Palace was also in tears and this showed on his wrinkled old face. 

These two old men did not mind wailing in front of so many others because they had watched her grow up ever since she was but a baby and they were her protectors in the Celestial Realm; they had strict instructions from the Great Goddess Celestial Alice not to reveal her daughter true identity to anyone but to act as her protectors. 

Hua Wuwu suddenly cried aloud, "We should avenge our mistress! Even If I die fighting, I shall storm the Abyssal Maelstrom Sea…"

"No!" Xue Qianxue had suddenly interrupted Hua Wuwu and she was exasperated, "That is why your mistress did not want to tell you where she is going and have put me in command of her profound ship. You are really too rush…"

Then she raised her adorable profound voice, "Saintess Hua Wuwu, you are now the Saintess Leader of the Blue Phoenix Sacred Sect and Saintess Hua Baiyue, you are the Divine Palace Mistress of the Hundred Flower Divine Palace. These are the last instructions from your mistress to the two of you. Do you want to disobey her and destroy these two celestial sects that are under your stewardship?"

Hua Wuwu and Hua Baiyue were suddenly quiet but it still could not contain their sobbing tears and griefs! 

Shangguan Yan sighed to say tearfully, "I am sure that Jiajia don't wish to see us in this manner. Even though I may not be strong, but don't forget that I am also a new core protégé of Jiajia and I will surely avenge for her. If Jiajia says we will have to wait until the end of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, then so shall it be!"

Xia Jiajia had taken Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi as her core protégés some time ago and had even helped Shangguan Yan to become a golden celestial of the fifth cultivation realm while Fairy Ye Chengxi is now a 6th cultivation realm golden supremacy. 

Fairy Ye Chengxi nodded, "We are supposed to be all the smart maidens here. If we can't win by force, surely we can use our heads."

Saintess Yuluo nodded as she stepped forward to say, "We can't allow Saintess Fang Zhenfei's death to be in vain. We need to regroup our numbers. Right now, we don't even know how many traitors do we have among all the celestial sects. That is why we can only hide until we are sure who is our friends or our foes."

Shui Qingqing was still in tears because she could not believe that Saintess Fang Zhenfei was now dead but she took the courage to say, "Divine Mo Ming says Ji Yuan may be the great hero that we need. We should wait for him…"

Actually, Diviner Mo Ming did not say that this Great Hero Ji Yuan would be able to save the Celestial Realm from the Great Demon God and his prophecy would not work against a higher power like the Great Demon God.

But everyone had decided to keep quiet since they did not want to hurt Shui Qingqing who was more naïve than any of the maidens here.

Ling Tianshui had stepped forward to say, "Listen to me, everyone…"

She was Ling Feiyue's aunt and she was also a top cultivator from the unorthodox side.

"Since Saintess Fang Zhenfei has passed the artefact core of her ninth rank blue firebird to Xue Qianxue for safekeeping, we should at the very least wait until Great Saintess Shui Xisi is back. Then we can have a hope. After all, she is the sister to Saintess Fang Zhenfei and she is also the Matriarch of the Water Melody Palace, 1 of the 3 most powerful powerhouses of our Desolate Celestial Fraternity. She will surely be able to avenge for her Sister Saintess Fang Zhenfei and many others…"

Then she continued to point out, "Let's don't forget that we have a silver hair great saintess by the name of Bai Qianfeng with Ji Yuan and she also looks quite formidable. And we also have Little Princess too. The three of them can make a difference to our fighting strength. So, let's us keep cool first and abide our time."

Shui Qingqing interrupted between her sobs, "Ji Yuan can also make the difference too. He is really strong."

When she had mentioned Ji Yuan, all the other maidens and even the grand elders of the Hundred Flower Divine Palace were all looking quite awkwardly at one another; it was because Ji Yuan was a sword cultivator and he specialized in sword energies. His puny sword energies could not even penetrate through the profound defenses of their immortal enemies, much less the Great Demon God.

Fairy Qiu Xiuyu innocently looked at Shui Qingqing, "I believe in my lord consort Ji Yuan too."

When she had said that, the rest of the group was looking even more awkwardly; it was because only these two maidens have the faith in Ji Yuan.

Fairy Qiu Xiuyu, they could understand as she was from the lower mortal realm and she did not know the disparity between a Power Cultivator, Defense Cultivator and Spirit Cultivator when compared to a Sword Cultivator here. 

A Sword Cultivator may be stronger in the lower realm because most of the cultivators had a poor profound defense at the lower cultivation realms. But this disparity become a huge disparity at the higher cultivation realms and sword energies were useless against the high level cultivators, especially when they had gained their golden bodies. 

As for Shui Qingqing, she had led a sheltered cultivation in the Water Melody Palace and her idol was Ji Yuan who had impressed her to no ends.

Great Saint Fu Wushuang, First Elder of the Hundred Flower Divine Palace quickly said with great awkwardness, "I know of an old freak who is quite powerful with the sword. He is the White Sword Monarch and he is also a Sword Immortal in the other celestial fraternity. Maybe we can ask him to teach Ji Yuan a trick or two to improve his profound sword arts. This old freak also got a saint-step divine sword too…"

Shui Qingqing interrupted excitedly and her golden eyes were beaming, "Maybe he will even give his saint sword to Ji Yuan too!" 

Great Saint Fu Wushuang was startled; it was because he had wanted to say this old freak also got a saint-step divine sword too and he is probably even better than Ji Yuan. 

The others were looking even more awkwardly; it was because no one will give their divine swords away, especially a powerful saint-step divine sword. 

They were all thinking that her Matriarch Shui Xisi was a terrible celestial teacher now and she is totally undependable...
