Chapter 698 Ji Yuan's First Target: Divine Consort Tang Manni
Maiden Flower Ju smiled as she showed Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan their new rooms, “How is it? Do you like it?”
Ji Yuan laughed jovially, “And these rooms are free for us? Absolutely free?”
Maiden Flower Ju nodded with a smile, “Absolutely free. You’re now our honorary guests and we wouldn’t dream of charging you.”
Ji Yuan laughed again as he patted Xiao Muhan, “Look brother. Do you think that you owe me for getting us free lodgings and food?”
Xiao Muhan muttered weakly, “I appreciate the free meditation room for cultivation but not for the food. Cultivators like us don’t really need to eat…”
“These are spiritual foods and I’m sure that you will like it.” Maiden Flower Ju giggled softly.
Xiao Muhan weakly nodded but he quickly asked a solemn question, “So, Maiden Flower Ju. It is alright if we bring a maiden into our room, right?”
Maiden Flower Ju: …
Ji Yuan nearly puked out as he turned to stare with great bewilderment at his best friend Xiao Muhan, “Brother, what are you saying?”
Xiao Muhan began to curse Ji Yuan in his heart: I need maidens. Have you forgotten about it? Or unless you have a solution for me. You have only saved Maiden Qin Shuang but not me. What a good friend you are.
Ji Yuan hastily shoved Xiao Muhan aside as he said weakly to Maiden Flower Ju, “My Brother Xiao Muhan is a joker and he likes to tease you. Of course, he isn’t going to bring any maidens to the tavern. Hahaha…”
Maiden Flower Ju heaved a soft sigh of relief, “That’s good…”
But she muttered a soft warning, “This place isn’t the place to bring in any maidens. If my mistress knows about this, she won’t be too happy.”
Ji Yuan asked curiously, “Our rooms are not soundproof?”
Maiden Flower Ju: …
“It is soundproof naturally. Rest assure that you won’t be disturbed while cultivating.”
Ji Yuan and Xiao Muhan began to say at the same time, “Hahaha…that is a relief…”
Ji Yuan then patted Xiao Muhan with a grin, “Brother, you can do your business in your own room and don’t worry, you won’t be disturbed.”
Xiao Muhan: …
Xiao Muhan: …
Xiao Muhan: …
Maiden Flower Ju asked curiously, “What business?”
Ji Yuan quickly laughed, “Play with his little brother.”
Xiao Muhan: …
Ji Yuan, you even dare to goad over my misfortune?!
Maiden Flower Ju asked curiously, “Master Xiao Muhan has a spirit fairy as his little brother?”
Xiao Muhan: …
Ji Yuan grinned in response, “That’s right.”
But he quickly said, “By the way, Maiden Flower Ju. Your mistress says we can ask you any questions about the city. It is now convenient to ask you?”
Maiden Flower Ju smiled, “Naturally, you may ask me any questions that please you.”
Ji Yuan chuckled as he asked, “We know that there are 4 Divine Consorts in Snowy Pavilion City. May I know their names?”
Maiden Flower Ju smiled, “That is an easy question for me to answer. The 4 Divine Consorts are Divine Consort Tang Manni, Divine Consort Dongfang Xin, Divine Consort Sun Dingjun and Divine Consort Ding Jie’Er.”
Ji Yuan laughed as he committed their names into memories, “Out of these 4 Divine Consorts, which one is the easiest? I mean the friendliest?”
Xiao Muhan muttered, “You are not after the Divine Consorts. Why did you want to ask so many questions about the Divine Consorts for? Have you forgotten about our gentleman agreement?”
Ji Yuan grinned, “Brother Xiao Muhan, I am asking for you. Just in case you have forgotten to ask about it. Also, I am Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei’s benefactor now and it is only fitting that I’ll be the one that is asking all these questions for you.”
Maiden Flower Ju began to hesitate; it was because none of the 4 Divine Consorts were easy to handle or friendly by nature.
However, there was 1 Divine Consort that she did not want to offend and that was the Divine Consort Tang Manni; it was because she was in this tavern right now.
So, she replied, “Divine Consort Tang Manni is the friendliest of the 4 Divine Consorts. She has the most pleasant character and is also the most beautiful.”
“Well said!” A feminine voice had said from behind Maiden Flower Ju and it was actually the extremely beautiful maiden ‘Han Muyuan’.
Ji Yuan frowned when he had seen her, “It is you. Well said or not, she isn’t referring to you.”
‘Han Muyuan’: …
‘Han Muyuan’: …
‘Han Muyuan’: …
Maiden Flower Ju had turned pale all of a sudden…
Ji Yuan had suddenly moved to lean toward the extremely beautiful maiden ‘Han Muyuan’ and this forced her to lean her back against the wall…
Ji Yuan put his right hand on the wall, brushing against her right ear as he said coolly. “This matter doesn’t concern you. I’m sure that you want to ask why I am so curious about the 4 Divine Consorts right?”
This Maiden ‘Han Muyuan’ was trying to pair him off with Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei earlier and she was trying to sabotage his chance with the 4 Divine Consorts.
Therefore, he had decided to be as badass as possible now so that she would not think of pairing him off with Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei or herself.
So, he began to stroke her face with his fingers while making a badass grin, “Unfortunately, I am only interested in wooing the 4 Divine Consorts. No matter how beautiful you are, you are nothing compared to a Divine Consort.”
Maiden ‘Han Muyuan’: …
Maiden Flower Ju was gasping silently with great shock when she saw Ji Yuan touching the face of the Divine Consort Tang Manni aka Maiden ‘Han Muyuan’ right in front of her eyes…
Divine Consort Tang Manni was startled too when Ji Yuan had suddenly cornered and pushed her to lean on the wall.
Even before she could react, she was startled when he had suddenly begun to caress her face and was threating her.
She was expecting a burst of anger to burst from her heart but instead, she felt her heartbeat was pacing very fast instead…
Ji Yuan continued to grin at Han Muyuan, “Well, I’m going to approach Divine Consort Tang Manni and to get her to like me. As for you, I did remember telling you that I have no interest in seeking you out as a cultivation partner. My Way is the Dao and the Dao is the Way of my cultivation life. Haha…”
All of a sudden, she began to react by angrily pushing Ji Yuan away, “No one cares about your beautiful face either. You will surely regret your choice of words today.”
With that, she had stormed off angrily.𝑂𝑣𝐿xt.𝔠𝓞𝑀
Ji Yuan on the other hand was laughing jovially, “I will regret my choice of words? Never!”
Then he turned to grin at Maiden Flower Ju, “What did you say just now about the Divine Consorts. Did you just say that the Divine Consort Tang Manni is the easiest to handle right?”
A frightened Maiden Flower Ju tried to compose herself as she said with a straight face, “Divine Consort Tang Manni is the easiest to approach…”
Ji Yuan had already turned to Xiao Muhan as he grinned, “Therefore we should try to woo Divine Consort Tang Manni first.”
Then he turned to Maiden Flower Ju with a chuckle, “Is Divine Consort Tang Manni still unmarried and is she beautiful?”
Maiden Flower Fu could only smile bitterly, “She is unmarried and is really very beautiful.”
Ji Yuan laughed, “Unmarried you say? She is 10 times stronger than that flirtatious married Han Muyuan. Haha…”
Maiden Flower Ju weakly said but her voice was incoherent, “Maybe you want to try to approach the other Divine Consorts first…”
