The Romantic Cultivator

Ji Yuan proclaimed loudly a second time, “I will choose Divine Consort Tang Manni to go with.”

Divine Consort Tang Manni was staring at Ji Yuan with disbelief, “You have picked me? You have chosen to come with me, why?”

Even the 3 other divine consorts were staring at Ji Yuan with disbelief and they were all asking, “Why?!”

Divine Consort Sun Dingjun gasped, “You don’t want your friend Xiao Muhan anymore?”

“How about your senior sister?” Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was also asking with a look of disbelief. She was so sure that Ji Yuan would surely pick her because he has someone important in her camp. 

Divine Consort Ding Jie’Er was stammering and there were bleary tears in her eyes, “Yuan Beluga… why?!” 

Ji Yuan heaved with a deep sigh, “Don’t get me wrong. You are all really very attractive and beautiful maidens. If I were to choose one of you to dual cultivate with then I would surely unable to make a choice…”

For the very first time, the prideful Divine Consort Dongfang Xin was trembling. “Then why did you pick her? I want to know why.”

Ji Yuan answered gently as he looked at Divine Consort Tang Manni, “That is because she didn’t ask me to be her cultivation partner or her champion. And also, I owe her an apology…”

He had actually wanted to pick Divine Consort Dongfang Xin because he did not want anyone to have any funny ideas on his senior sister. Like Little Princess, these two maidens had an irresistible hold on their onlookers. And he did not want to be green by anyone, especially not Xi Huangdi.

Also, he wanted to fight alongside his senior sister too. 

But when he had suddenly remembered the tears of Tang Manni when he had paid a visit to her villa and the hurtful slap that he had received from her this morning, he found himself picking her against his better judgement. 

In short, he had just made a decision to screw himself…

Divine Consort Tang Manni was startled by Ji Yuan’s reply and her lips were trembling as she stared at him…

She wanted to tell him that she had forgiven him at this very instant because he had picked her but no words had come forth from her trembling lips. 

It was because she was after all, still a shy maiden with no experience in any romantic relationships. 

Ji Yuan had turned to look at the three divine Consorts Dongfang Xin, Sun Dingjun and Little Jie’Er who were still waiting to hear his lame explanations.

Naturally, he was not going to tell them the true reasons why he had picked Divine Consort Tang Manni.𝒐𝚟𝗅𝐞xt.𝚌𝐎𝓶

So, he said weakly, “I never have any intention of tricking the 3 of you here. If I have accidentally broken any of the sacred spiritas laws and had caused you a misunderstanding, please do forgive me…”

Then he turned to say to Divine Consort Tang Manni, “I will come with you. It is all thanks to the hospitality of your sister and you that I have got a much easier time in Snowy Pavilion City. I am grateful that you did not force me to become your champion.”

Divine Consort Tang Manni was still surprised by Ji Yuan’s choice that she appeared to be stunned and did not know what to say to him…

And also, because she could feel the burning hatred of the other 3 divine consorts on her back as well.

When Ji Yuan saw that Divine Consort Tang Manni did not say anything and he had no idea if she was upset with him for picking her, he could only turn to say with great awkwardness to the other 3 divine consorts. “This is my final choice.”

Then he turned to Divine Consort Sun Dingjun to laugh weakly, “If you are not returning my Brother Xiao Muhan to me, I hope that you can at the very least take good care of him for me. Because I won’t forgive you if anything happens to my Brother Xiao Muhan.”

He had also turned to look at Divine Consort Dongfang Xin, “The same goes for my senior sister. You have better ensure that she is safe or else I won’t forgive you too.” 

Ji Yuan sighed heavily as he waved his hands to mutter aloud, “Farewell then.”

With that he had turned around to leave the room.

It was only then that Divine Consort Tang Manni had suddenly sobered up and she had to run after him.

Now it was only the 3 divine consorts that were left in this room.

However, the three divine consorts Sun Dingjun, Dongfang Xin and Ding Jie’Er were not upset with Ji Yuan. 

In fact, unknown to Ji Yuan, his trust points with these 3 divine consorts had suddenly increased instead!

It was because all 3 of the divine consorts were all thinking: He is really different from the other despicable celestials. He did not pick 1 of us to be his cultivation partner nor did he choose the side that can give him the best benefits…

The alluringly eyes of Divine Consort Dongfang Xin were shining and she had decided in her mind: I am going to make you mine. Since you are not picking Divine Consort Tang Manni to be your cultivation partner, this means that I actually have a chance to make you mine. You are superior to these celestial dogs. I must admit that I was too reckless to try to make you mine without trying to understand your character first. But your character is indeed noble. You have rather pick Tang Manni than your senior sister the Smiling Divine Maiden…

Divine Consort Ding Jie’Er was also thinking: Ji Yuan… you are my Beluga and I’m your Beluga-mom. You pick Tang Manni because she didn’t give you any benefits except that she is the first divine consort that you know. But you didn’t say I can’t become your dual partner, am I right? Is this a hint for me? Hm… it is a hint… heehee… I have a chance…”

Divine Consort Sun Dingjun was blinking with disbelief; when Xiao Muhan had said that he is Ji Yuan’s best friend, she had seized the opportunity to order her female followers to capture Xiao Muhan first and to use him as a possible bargaining chip to threaten Ji Yuan. 

Her instincts proved to be accurate and this Xiao Muhan had indeed proven to be useful.

But Ji Yuan did not pick her at all.

Divine Consort Sun Dingjun felt a little depressed. 

It was because she had fallen out with her good sister Jie’Er over him. 

At first, she was actually not serious about Ji Yuan and she wanted to separate Jie’Er and Ji Yuan because Jie’Er was boasting in front of her that her cultivation partner was a billionaire. 

She was jealous of their relationships and she had decided to screw them by trying to seduce Ji Yuan. Once she had succeeded, she would naturally dump him and then by comforting Jie’Er later, “Men are all the same. They will pick the relationship with the most benefits.” 

The reason why she had come to the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel tonight was because all the rich men would be coming to this place and she suspected that Yuan Beluga or Ji Yuan would also be in this place.

She had actually known that Jie’Er would be coming to the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel this very night because she had already bribed one of her female followers. 

So, she had thought of having some fun by screwing this Yuan Beluga once more by pretending to give him another chance. 

To get her sister Jie’Er back, she did not mind being a slut in front of her. 

But tonight, her heart was moved discreetly by Ji Yuan and she had suddenly realized that she likes him too. He was indeed very different from the other lecherous male celestials…

It seemed that she had really misunderstood him this morning and he really did not know anything about any of the sacred spiritas laws.

She was now regretting why she had to be angry with him for picking her to be his cultivation partner this morning; she had really screwed herself this time round…

And she was also thinking: I’m sorry Jie’Er. I am going to be a true slut this time…

Ji Yuan and Divine Consort Tang Manni were walking quietly together as they headed back to Fairy Concubine Xu Yifei’s tavern. 

Walking not far away behind them were 20 of the female followers of Divine Consort Tang Manni and one of them was Spirit Concubine Fay and she was giggling softly to her other sisters at the back.

Divine Consort Tang Manni said quietly with lowered head, “You will surely regret coming with me.”

Ji Yuan smiled most bitterly, “Hahaha…”

He really did not know what to say.

  Maybe she would give him another slap before leaving. After all, she was only here at the behest of Maiden Flower Ju to ensure that he could go back in one piece to her sister’s tavern.

At least, this was what she had told him after they had left the Heavenly Fragrance Brothel.

Divine Consort Tang Manni said slowly, “Your trust points with the other divine consorts will probably go even lower because of this choice of yours.”

She was actually feeling a little guilty; it is because she can tell how that he is really close to his senior sister. 

Or maybe he likes her sister Xu Yifei instead? But she is not a divine consort…

Ji Yuan said all of a sudden, “Erm, Maiden Han Muyuan… I mean Divine Consort Tang Manni. Sorry about what I say about you. I hope that you can accept my apologies…”

Xiang Li reminded Ji Yuan: Big Brother, you have to eat shit first. Remember?

Ji Yuan: …

Divine Consort Tang Manni turned to him and displayed a faint smile, “Do I look like someone who is so petty? I’m not.”

Ji Yuan could only laugh weakly, “Hahaha…”

He resisted saying out aloud: Yes, you are.
