The Romantic Cultivator

In a mystical chamber of the underground Bliss City;

Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue was looking at the dark mist array of the Profound Heavenly Eyes Array that were rotating slowly around her.

Behind her, Zhi Jiugong and the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu were also deep in thoughts as they searched in the array too.

Basically once they had locked onto the name and image of a cultivator that had entered the Wonderland of the Ecstasy Island, they would be able to use this vision array to obtain information on what that cultivator had in his spatial possessions.

As they viewed the Profound Heavenly Eyes Array, they began to find various parts of the desolate monsters and other minor stuffs that were on him.

The Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong were also searching through Ji Yuan’s spatial space.

Zhi Jiugong could not help muttering, “He looks like a poor cultivator…”

Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu was panicky searching, “He doesn’t seem to have a lot of high grade spirit stones. I can find some inferior spirit stones on him. Are you sure that this Ji Yuan is not a same name cultivator?”

The Smiling Divine Maiden rebuked them gently, “You ought to have a little patience in your search. Look, isn’t this a million year old Celestial Shadow Fern? He does have something.”

Zhi Jiugong was actually cursing, “How did this man survived till the 6th level with so little profound items? I have found many 1st and 2nd rank profound pills. You can buy these low level profound pills even on the streets.”

“Wait look!” The Lovely Empress was shouting all of a sudden. “He does have something astonishing! I saw two saint-step divine swords over here! Did you all see that?”

Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden were both gasping as they looked into the direction of the Lovely Empress, “It is really two saint-step divine swords…”

The Lovely Empress had actually found it by accident in a random direction in Ji Yuan’s spatial space as she got bored.

The Smiling Divine Maiden began to say slowly, “It is no wonder that he is able to defeat our master. This isn’t a joke and we must be extra careful when we are near him.”𝗇𝗈𝔳𝓔𝑙𝑛ℯxt.𝗰𝞸𝓂

The Lovely Empress asked, “You mean that he may have some hidden trump cards?”

The Smiling Divine Maiden nodded, “That’s right. It may not necessary a profound treasure. This man seems to have none. But he may have some deadly profound arts that can defeat our master.”

Zhi Jiugong was smiling weakly, “His overall profound aura seems weak… are you sure that he is able to injure our master with his profound arts?”

The Lovely Empress rolled her lovely delightful eyes, “Let’s trick him into entering the arena to find out. Maybe he has managed to learn some miracle profound arts?”

Zhi Jiugong answered weakly, “Maybe. But with his profound aura, he can’t really sustain his miracle arts.”

The Smiling Divine Maiden waved her hand to silence them, “Enough of your speculations. The fact is that he has two saint-step divine swords. This fact alone means that we have to be careful of him.”

The Lovely Empress was giggling, “I don’t think he can even use two saint-step divine swords at the same time. He just doesn’t have enough profound strength to do so.”

All of a sudden an alluring heavenly veiled maiden had suddenly appeared in the midst of the Profound Heavenly Eyes Array, shocking the three of them.

She merely said, “What are you looking at.”

They could see that her eyes were misty like the stars as through she was looking into their hearts. With a wave of her hands, the entire Profound Heavenly Eyes Array had exploded thunderous all of a sudden!

The Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong had quickly raised their profound aura to protect themselves from the exploding profound energies.

Luckily they were not injured but the Profound Heavenly Eyes Array was completely destroyed.

The Lovely Empress asked, “What was that? Is she an immortal?”

The Profound Heavenly Eyes Array may be a formidable vision array but it still could not be used on an immortal. So her very first thought was that she may be an immortal.

Zhi Jiugong was startled and she had lost her beautiful regal countenance, “Did that maiden just destroy a saint level profound artefact? This is a big loss for us…”

The Smiling Divine Maiden was no longer smiling and she had turned pale, “This maiden is too formidable. Or rather this Ji Yuan has such a powerful maiden immortal to aid him, this is scary.”

But she quickly said, “Retrieve our 8 heaven-step divine swords from this array. Even though our array was destroyed and the loss of this saint profound treasure is irreplaceable, we can still get our 8 heaven-step divine swords from the eye of this array.”

The Lovely Empress nodded slowly before she was reminded of something, “Sisters, have you noticed something that is unusual with our master in this trip?”

Zhi Jiugong smiled as she could not help praising the Death God Mingwang, “No. He is still as formidable as before.’

The Lovely Empress solemnly said, “No! Our master keeps touching his belly! And when he had talked about his mortal enemy Ji Yuan, did you all notice that he had lingered on his belly longer than usual? It was as though he had been wounded by Ji Yuan on that spot.”

Zhi Jiugong was suddenly gasping now.

The Smiling Divine Maiden was startled as she cursed herself softly, “How can I miss such an important detail? Our master has never got this strange habit before. It must be Ji Yuan that had wounded him.”

Zhi Jiugong was smiling bitterly, “This Ji Yuan must be some heaven-defying genius…”

The Lovely Empress chuckled all of a sudden, “Speaking of geniuses, I happened to meet one powerful Lin Antian that is enamored by me. He was talking about killing a powerful opponent but I didn’t pay much attention to this little detail. Now that I’ve recalled it…”

She closed her lovely eyes to ponder with her divine art as though she was retrieving something, “That powerful opponent happens to be Ji Yuan too.”

The Smiling Divine Maiden asked her, “Hmm, what is his odds?”

The Lovely Empress began to smile, “50-50.”

The Smiling Divine Maiden rolled her alluring eyes with a soft chuckle, “Let’s set them up for a fight in the arena then.”

The Lovely Empress said naughtily and her eyes were delighted, “In the arena, it won’t be 50-50. Ji Yuan will only have 20% or less because we will be sabotaging him discreetly.”

The Smiling Divine Maiden laughed enthralling, “This Ji Yuan is going to be a dead Ji Yuan soon.”

Zhi Jiugong was also smiling alluringly, “But of course we can’t just depend on just an arena. We are naturally going to kill him in three different directions. Even if he has wings, he can’t fly away from us.”

Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue nodded with a coyly smile, “No man has yet to escape from my hands…”

The Lovely Empress was suddenly asking Zhi Jiugong when she had suddenly noticed that she had turned around and was about to leave, “Sister Jiugong, where are you going?”

Zhi Jiugong answered regally as she displayed the divine zither in her hands, “Today, I have happened to get back something that is very precious to my heart. However it is damaged and so, I will like to find a quiet place to repair it.”

Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue were suddenly looking weirdly at Zhi Jiugong.

It was because Zhi Jiugong was different from them and she did not have any lofty ambitions; she may be the Ancient Matriarch of the Holy Oracle Sect but she had always been humble in her pursuits. In fact, she had followed the Death God Mingwang out of her own free will and not because she was seeking immortality. They began to recall that she had wept more than them when she had fallen to the ground to plead to the Death God Mingwang for the name of his mortal enemy.

So when she had mentioned to them that she had found something precious in her heart and it was just a zither, they were blinking with curiosity.
