The Romantic Cultivator-Chapter 553 The White Sword Monarch

When Ji Yuan had exited the arena, he was closely followed by the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress.

Behind him walked the short old man.

Almost all the male cultivators were envious of Ji Yuan when they saw him embracing two of the most peerless maidens in Bliss City.

The Smiling Divine Maiden said softly to Ji Yuan while displaying a captivating look, "Please take care. Today may be the very last time that we are seeing each other."

Ji Yuan was startled, "What do you mean?"

The Lovely Empress lowered her delightful eyes to say woefully as she took the place of her sister to explain, "Sooner or later, our master will know that we have helped you. The profound imageries of the arena trials will be sent for our master to view. Even if our master did not view it but there are many in the Death and Dragon Faction that will seize this golden opportunity to inform our master about it for some rewards…"

"In fact, we cannot betray our master." Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue melecholy looked at Ji Yuan. "There is no way for us to be together. In fact, we may even become enemies."

Ji Yuan quickly said, "You don't have to worry about it. I can help you to explain to the Death God…"

The Smiling Divine Maiden displayed a faint but nonchalant smile, "Don't forget your oath to the Great Beyond Goddess that you will not become his enemy. Just making this oath with your soul sea alone means you will not be able to overcome him in the future anymore and he will become your heart demon."

Ji Yuan began to laugh weakly, "Haha… actually I will have a way. Trust me…"

"Sister, let's us go now." The Smiling Divine Maiden smiled faintly to the Lovely Empress. "It will be awkward if we meet the rest of Ji Yuan's consorts, am I right? They will think that we are harlots."

Then she took a quiet look at the short old man before she silently said: Farewell father…

"Ji Yuan, farewell." The Smiling Divine Maiden took a last look at Ji Yuan as she put on her most enchanting smiles for him.

She had wanted him to remember her most beautiful moments.

The Lovely Empress was also taking one last look at Ji Yuan, "Farewell… free of charge Ji Yuan. I have a very good memory of you. Don't die on me and please also forget about me."

Ji Yuan had wanted to catch the two of them to embrace them together but before he knew it, they had hastily slipped away and had disappeared together.

In his current condition, there was no way for him to catch up with these two astonishing maidens that had once plotted to kill him. "Actually… alas!"

He turned to stare angrily at his old master, "Old man! Why didn't you help me to stop them from leaving? One of them is your very own daughter!"

But the short old man just sighed heavily, "In the end, she still decides to go back to serve her evil master."

Ji Yuan punched his old master, "Old man! You've promised me an arranged marriage to your daughter Chu Lixue and now you're breaking your words!"

The short old man began to punch and kick Ji Yuan, "What the heck! When did I ever promise you something like this? I mean I am going to betrothe you to my other daughter, not Chu Lixue!"

"No way old man!" Ji Yuan cursed loudly, "You are so ugly. You won't have a beautiful daughter. Besides, I must take the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue as my consort!"

The short old man slapped Ji Yuan, "She is your senior protégé sister and is thousands of years older than you, you stupid fool! As a peaked great saintess, she won't be able to give you any descendants too. Moreover she is evil and serves our enemy…"

"Your enemy only!" Ji Yuan kicked back his old master. "Remember that I've made an oath not to be the Death God's enemy?"

"That is why you are a stupid fool!" The short old man pulled Ji Yuan to him before punching his face. "If I were there, I would surely stop you!"

"Ji Yuan!"

There were a chorus of jovial sounds calling for Ji Yuan's name and Ji Yuan looked up to see that they were Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Dream Mist, Yu Jingjing, Little Princess, Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue and Yang Mi that had arrived.

To Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and Dream Mist, they were not surprised but to the others, they were mostly surprised to see that Ji Yuan was brawling like a common rascal now.

But when Yang Mi saw the short old man, she was terrified and she had immediately dropped to her knees, "Father, why are you here…"

It was because she had thought that her father had discovered her relationship with Ji Yuan and was punishing Ji Yuan. And moreover Ji Yuan looked super weak now.

Everyone was startled when they saw Yang Mi calling the short old man her father.

Yu Jingjing was startled as she quickly said, "Holy Oracle Priestess Yu Jingjing pays my respect to senior…"

The short old man cut her out, "This is just between my daughter and me!"

As Yang Mi, Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue, Little Princess and Yu Jingjing were meditating during the 3 days arena event, they did not know exactly what had happened save that Ji Yuan had completed the trial.

The short old man had stopped punching Ji Yuan and he had flashed next to Yang Mi immediately as he rebuked her angrily, "Yang Mi! Why are you here in this evil place? Are you trying to drive me to your grave by trying to follow your oldest sister?!"

Yang Mi was shocked, "I have an older sister in this place?"

All of a sudden the short old man had realized that he had accidentally revealed a secret...

Ji Yuan immediately interrupted, "Actually she is only following…"

"Shut up Ji Yuan!" The short old man had suddenly thundered out very loud and he was really furious.

This caused Yang Mi to wept even more as she bitterly wept, "Father, please don't scold Ji Yuan or beat him up anymore. He won't be able to take it…"

"You will be coming with me!" The short old man shouted furiously, "I will confine you for a hundred years in solitary for coming to this place and then you will accept my arranged marriage for you!"

Yang Mi began to wept aloud and she was shivering hard, "Father, didn't I tell you that I won't accept any arranged marriage? That is why I have joined the Holy Oracle Sect in the first place. But… your unfilial daughter has already decided to quit the Holy Oracle Sect to be with the one that I've met in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth…"

"What did you just say?" The short old man was so furious that he had raised his hand high up now. "If you dare to say one more time that you will not accept my arranged marriage for you, I will kill you immediately! Your future husband may have a foul mouth but at least he is around your same age and he is already a sword saint!"

"No, I'll refuse to marry him!" Yang Mi declared firmly. "I will rather kill myself than marry someone that I do not love! And please don't hit Ji Yuan anymore! He is innocent!"

"Erm," Ji Yuan managed to interrupt finally amidst all the shouting. "Old man. Erm, you don't mean Maiden Yang Mi is actually your daughter?"

Yang Mi was suddenly startled, "Old man?!"

She had remembered that her father had told her that he was going to marry her off to a protégé of his in a faraway place and this protégé of his would always call him old man instead of protégé master.

Ji Yuan and Yang Mi both gasped at the same time, "Our arranged marriage?"

All the maidens standing near were startled, "What arranged marriage? And who is this old man to you?"

Ling Feiyue was frowning, "I am the head consort, why didn't I know about this arranged marriage?"

The short old man was about to hit Yang Mi but he had managed to restraint himself as this wonderland forbidded anyone to touch one another unless they were both willing parties, "Naturally it is your arranged marriage! Alas! Since you are so resilient to this arranged marriage of yours then I shall cancel it. From this point onward, you are no longer my daughter and you can join your sister in this evil place!"

Ji Yuan had suddenly patted his old master on his right shoulder, "Erm old man, at this rate that your hot temper is going, you are going to have no daughters soon."

Yang Mi had suddenly stopped her wet tears as she turned flustered since the man in her arranged marriage was actually Ji Yuan, "Father, in that case, your fillial daughter will have no other choice but to accept this arranged marriage of yours!"

The short old man was stunned as he looked at Yang Mi before he looked at Ji Yuan with an angry growl, "Did you do something to my daughter?!"

Ji Yuan pretended to say, "You will actually have such a beautiful daughter?"

No way, he would admit to banging Yang Mi and took away her first time.

Then he was suddenly staring at his old master with a sudden realization, "Don't tell me that you are that White Sword Monarch? You are that old freak with 12 grand elders who are also sword saints under you?"

Yang Mi had once told him that her father was the White Sword Monarch and he also had a saint-step divine sword. Moreover, the White Sword Celestial Clan was also the most powerful celestial clan in the Endless Celestial Fraternity.

The short old man pulled Ji Yuan to Yang Mi as he said solemnly, "Ji Yuan is my only direct protégé in the Desolate Celestial Fraternity."

Yang Mi was looking with her shocked eyes at Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan is a direct protege of my father. He isn't just a normal protege?! How is it possible?"

She had thought that Ji Yuan may be a protege of the protege of a certain elder or grand elder from her father's celestial clan.

Ji Yuan was stammering, "Old man, are you joking with me? The White Sword Monarch is so ancient that he exceeded the life span of several of my patriarchs in the Orthodox Sword Sect."

"Are you stupid or not?" The short old man chuckled loudly. "They are all me. Hahaha…"

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan suddenly said, "Old man! I am going to kill you now for making a fool out of me! You have better give me a very good explaination why you have only taught me your broken sword arts instead of your superior sword arts. Now I know why your older daughter hates you now!"

Meanwhile Yun Chi was also shocked: Ji Yuan's old master is actually this old freak?!

Yun Chi's shocked look had suddenly attracted Ji Yuan's attention and he was gasping with a sudden realization, "Yun Chi, it is really you?! Do you know that I've been looking everywhere for you?!"

Ji Yuan had immediately abandoned talking to his old master as he greeted Yun Chi excitingly and he was actually going forward to embrace her.

"So you have finally realized that I am actually here? Are you sure that you have been looking everywhere from me?" Hummed Yun Chi coldly. "I can only see you enjoying yourself in the arena with 2 peerless maidens..."

Ji Yuan had suddenly embraced Yun Chi tightly and he was rejoicing with heartfelt emotions, "Do you know that I have only joined the arena to attract your attention? I didn't find you everywhere so I can only think of the most stupid ways to find you..."

Yun Chi was feeling awkward now because all of a sudden she saw that the old freak and all the other maidens were all looking curiously in her direction.

In the end she was sighing softly; instead of 'killing' Ji Yuan outright for entering the Island of Ecstacy Island without her permission, she was now actually touched that Ji Yuan had come to the Island of Ecstary Island to help her get rid of the Dragon Faction. For a number of days now, she was experiencing a headache on how best to destroy the Dragon Faction.

She muttered softly to Ji Yuan, "Why are you silly?"

Ji Yuan tightened his grip and said, "Actually I've wanted to leave this place the instant that I've arrived at this degenerate place. But the thought that you may be greening me cause me to stay..."

All of a sudden Yun Chi had kicked Ji Yuan away with a hateful look, "Go die Ji Yuan..."

Ji Yuan muttered weakly before he chuckled, "I was only teasing you..." f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂

Ling Feiyue giggled to the rest of the maidens, "He sucks in being a romantic cultivator...Ji Yuan doesn't even know when to stop his bad jokes even if this is the most romantic moments..."

All the other maidens agreed heartily including the short old man.

The short old man sighed softly, "I may have trained him wrongly and he likes to be beaten up by the maidens now..."

Little Princess was suddenly flustered as she interrupted, "Enough already..."

All of a sudden the short old man was frowning as he stared at the veiled Little Princess, "This enticing clothing... do you happen to know the Third Citadel Mistress of the Evil Cultivation Palace?"

Little Princess quickly answered with a flushed look and put her crossed fingers behind her, "Uh who? Oh no..."
