Chapter 814 This Is A Decadent City-State!
The Spirit Divine Realm.
In the city-state of Melnibone, 1 of the 12 major city-states of the Northern Alliance Theology Olympiad.
An old man was staring at the beautiful spiritas maiden that was in front of him.
He had suddenly run into her in the street and had accidentally knocked into her.
This old man was actually the White Sword Monarch and he was actually in this place to look for Ji Yuan and to warn him of a mysterious enemy called Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao.
This information was actually told to him by Yun Chi.
By now, he was already suspicious who Yun Chi really was; it was because the rest of his party had left Yun Chi behind to deal with this Number 1.
No matter how dense he was previously, he was now beginning to suspect Yun Chi’s real identity now. It was because she could not possibly be stronger than Bai Qianfeng and the one that should be staying behind should be Bai Qianfeng and not Yun Chi.
However even Bai Qianfeng was willing to let Yun Chi to stay behind.
And Yun Chi was the one that had warned everyone. 𝔫𝞸𝑣𝔢𝓁𝑛𝐞xt.𝗰𝗈𝗆
He was actually not here to take the trial or to earn any Trust Points from the divine consorts in this place.
But when he was in this world, he was completely stunned by the decadent dressing of the maidens here and he was driven mad with anger when he was thinking that his two daughters would be dressed in the very same decadent attire as well.
He was now hopping mad but at the same time, he was delightfully looking at the white jaded bosoms of this spiritas maiden that was telling him a bit of the history of the city-state here.
This spiritas maiden explained, “This city-state of Melnibone was once ruled by a divine lord called Elric and he was known as the Womanslayer. Legend has it that he had ruled this city-state for 10 000 years before our Goddess Ai Tina and the New Kingdoms has brought him down. He is also the one that have brought the utopia Dreaming City to crash down in burning flames…”
“Old man, you got it?”
The White Sword Monarch protested weakly, “Actually I am not really so old. Haha!”
The spiritas maiden frowned when she saw his white hair and wrinkles, “Then how old are you?”
The White Sword Monarch was actually 10 000 years old but he raised his finger to say, “1 000 years.”
The spiritas maiden laughed jovially, “You look so old for 1000 years. I am 5000 years old.”
The White Sword Monarch blinked his eyes as he looked at this young spiritas maiden that looked as like a 16-year-old celestial maiden. “Seriously?”
The spiritas maiden stared back at him, “I think you look like 10 000 to 20 000 years old for sure.”
The White Sword Monarch saw with his divine sense that this young spiritas maiden was only at the 4th cultivation realm and 4th cultivation realm celestial cultivators cannot live for even 500 years and they would also age terribly too.
But this lowly cultivation realm spiritas maiden was actually 5000 years old?
The White Sword Monarch asked weakly, “Maiden, you must have a renown master, am I right?”
The spiritas maiden giggled softly, “Mistress you mean? Not really. I am too lazy to cultivate and they say that my bloodline is too thin to become a ranked spiritas noble. I can’t even use a spirit talisman and can only use a physical talisman. Hehe…”
The White Sword Monarch: …
The White Sword Monarch: …
The White Sword Monarch: …
No cultivation?!
And she is at the 4th cultivation realm?!
The White Sword Monarch asked weakly, “Well, I shouldn’t impose on maiden anymore. Or else your husband will be angry with me…”
The spiritas maiden interrupted him with an unhappy look, “Mind your tongue. I am still unmarried.”
The White Sword Monarch was stunned, “Such a beautiful maiden and you are unmarried?”
The spiritas maiden looked perplexed, “What is so strange about this? It is normal here and elsewhere too. Have you gone senile? There are so few men around here. And many of them don’t even have any interest in the maidens.”
The White Sword Monarch blinked his eyes: It is no wonder there are so few men in the city. Does this mean that this entire city is full of unmarried spiritas maidens?
The spiritas maiden said nonchalantly, “Well, farewell anyway…”
“Wait!” The White Sword Monarch panicky said before he gave a manly ahem, “I am looking for the divine consort of this city-state.”
The spiritas maiden took a surprise look at him before she giggled, “Are you thinking of become a champion of our divine consorts? Well, there are 3 divine consorts in this city-state and this part of the city belongs to the judication of the Divine Consort Aiel.”
The White Sword Monarch asked curiously, “What is a champion?”
The spiritas maiden looked surprise, “You don’t even know what a champion is? Are you from elsewhere?”
The White Sword Monarch nodded weakly, “I am from a far, far away place…”
Then he quickly made a fake city-state name. “I’m from the city-state of Jedi. It is extremely far away from this place…”
This spiritas maiden looked a little surprised, “You are from the same city as our Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan? Do you know him?”
The White Sword Monarch was surprised, “Erm, I do. Of course, I know Ji Yuan. I trained him haha. I am actually trying to find this little ras… I mean my little Ji Yuan in this city-state… what the name again? Snowy Pavilion City I think… “
This spiritas maiden smiled, “You’re his master?”
The White Sword Monarch straightened himself to smile proudly, “Of course I am his old master! Do you think that I am lying to you?”
This spiritas maiden smiled shyly, “You can call me Maiden Xiaotian if you want to. So what is your name?”
The White Sword Monarch laughed jovially, “You can call me Old Yang.”
Xiaotian smiled, “Actually you don’t look so old now.”
The White Sword Monarch was startled, “I am not?”
Xiaotian giggled, “Of course not! I was only teasing you earlier. You can tell me more about the heroic deeds of this Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan? Come to my humble abode for a spiritual drink and tell me all about him? I’ll also tell you how to get to Snowy Pavilion City too.”
The White Sword Monarch laughed jovially, “Sure, let’s go and I will tell you all about the heroic deeds of Ji Yuan. Haha…”
But he was actually thinking quite miserably; I can’t remember if he has ever done a single heroic deed in the past. I can’t tell this Maiden Xiaotian that Ji Yuan is an outer world celestial. Tomb raiding? How he got tortured by me? Attack the other celestial sects? fighting desolate monsters? Maybe I just tell her about his epic fights with the low level desolate monsters? No wait, if she asks me to describe the desolate monsters in detail then she may know that I am not talking about the profound beasts in her world…
Xiaotian on the other hand was now giggling with great delight, “I didn’t expect to meet the master of the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan in the streets. Frankly speaking, you look so handsome even with a beard.”
The White Sword Monarch was startled, “I am handsome?”
But he quickly laughed, “Of course I am handsome. Hoho, Haha…”
Xiaotian was actually thinking: Yuck! Beards are so ugly. Why is he keeping a barbarian beard like the half-humans? Is his half-human blood so strong?
But because this old man seemed to know the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan, so she decided not to let her thoughts be known to him.
