The Romantic Cultivator

Ji Yuan was now at the Wings Cultivation Hall and he had walked up to the sixth level.

He still had more than nine hundred thousand high grade spirit stones after repaying his debts and he was now feeling quite rich in his pockets.

“Get me your best cultivation resources on this level for me to view. Your granddaddy here has no time to check one by one. Haha.” Ji Yuan laughed as he said to the spirit attendants on this level.

Immediately dozens of spirit attendants were swarming around Ji Yuan to present him with the high level cultivation resources that were on this level.

There were also a dozen cultivators from the Fire Faction that was on this level and they immediately bowed with their hands respectfully toward Ji Yuan.

They were some of the best cultivators in the Fire Faction but they were not at the pinnacle yet. In the Fire Faction there were there three others that were at the seventh level already.

There were many cultivators that were in the Fire Faction that thought that Ji Yuan would be at the higher level if he would be able to contest daily.

Therefore everyone had the utmost respect toward him.

“JI Yuan is here!”

“Great Hero Ji Yuan is here!”

“Sword Saint Ji Yuan!”

“God of Songs Ji Yuan!”

“Please address me to address you as Big Brother Ji Yuan…no Senior Ji Yuan! I would not be able to improve my cultivation if it is not for your enlightening moving music!”

Ji Yuan waved his hands, “Haha! Please continue as per normal. You are all my cultivation brothers and sisters!”

There were two maidens among the six cultivators that were presented and they had all dropped what they were doing to greet Ji Yuan.

These two maidens were flushing when Ji Yuan had suddenly addressed them as his cultivation sisters and even the men were all excited at the prospect that Ji Yuan was now addressing them as their cultivation brothers.

They quickly said to the spirit attendants, “Let Big Brother Ji Yuan has his first pick first! We can wait!”

Ji Yuan laughed jovially, “You are all too polite. Since you are all here earlier than me, this won’t be nice at all.”

The six cultivators quickly said;𝔫𝒪𝗏𝐞𝑙𝑵𝑒xt.𝑐𝑜𝑀

“Not at all!”

“You are our champion in the Fire Faction…”

“Because of you, our Fire Faction is able to lift our heads high…”

“You are our idol!”

Ji Yuan laughed, “In that case, I will not decline everyone’s kind offer. But I cannot accept this kind offer free of charge.”

He immediately waved his hands to send ten thousand high grade spirit stones to everyone. “Please do not decline my gesture of gratitude as well!”

The six cultivators were all smiling broadly, “Thank you Big Brother Ji Yuan!”

Ji Yuan had always been generous to the cultivators in the Five Heavens Peaks where he was from. He would offer to buy them drinks.

He had never saved much because if he had any excess cultivation wealth, he would generously donated it to his own Orthodox Sword Sect and he had never given himself any extra, not even when he had some excess wealth from his tomb raiding activities in the Five Heavens Peaks.

Even when he had left for his self-seclusion for his saint breakthrough, he did not empty the treasuries of the Orthodox Sword Sect to aid himself.

Rather, he had left everything to Ye Chengxi who was his core protégé and the next leader of the Orthodox Sword Sect.

Actually even if Ji Yuan was wealthy, he would quickly disperse all his cultivation wealth away because he had a generous spirit and he was a carefree cultivator that rarely bothered with material wealth.

That was also one of the main reasons why he was able to advance in his cultivation realms quickly because he had a higher state of divinity than most of the other cultivators even though he lacked any cultivation resources.

Ji Yuan’s passions were actually his sword arts and his delicious wines for company.

He did not mind even if his peers like Xue Qianxue and Ling Feiyue were able to advance faster than him even though they were all younger than him because they were themselves and he was himself; he was only interested to pursue his own path of cultivation and had never thought of competing with the other geniuses of the cultivation world.

He had often told Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan, “What is the point of saving so many cultivation resources for the Orthodox Sword Sect when it will eventually squandered by all of you? If you really want to be a cultivator then you have to depend on your own resources and not your own sect or anyone else for it. Either you accept that our mountains are poor in spiritual aura or you can choose to win acceptance into the top celestial sects.”

To Ji Yuan, his own celestial sect was actually a burden and as the years went by, he was frequently not in the Five Heavens Peaks but had wandered like a beggar throughout the Desolate Celestial Fraternity.

The cultivators in the Desolate Celestial Fraternity may know Ji Yuan as the Great Poet Ji Yuan but they did not know that he was able to pen many of his emotional poems because he was a carefree and poor wanderer that had traveled extensively to mingle with the many poor cultivators.

That was also one of the reasons why he was nominated as one of the most beautiful bearded cultivators by the cultivators in the Desolate Celestial Fraternity but this would be another long story.

Ji Yuan was now saying in his soul sea, “My dearest Xiang Li, pick whatever you want. Your Big Brother will buy you anything that you like.”

Xiang Li was flushing shyly when Ji Yuan was calling her dearest all of a sudden but she quickly said, “But Big Brother, this won’t do. Xiang Li doesn’t want anything from you…”

“What? You think that I am still the same pauper? I’m rich now!” Ji Yuan laughed jovially.

Xiang Li rolled her eyes before she giggled, “Big Brother, you’ve better check your spirit stones. You’ve only a few hundred high grade spirit stones left now.”

Ji Yuan was startled as he quickly inspected his spatial ring, “What the heck? What about to my one million high grade spirit stones?!!”

Xiang Li muttered, “You owe the Trial 700,000 high grade spirit stones four days ago. A day of interest is 70k…so three days of interest….”

Ji Yuan blinked his golden eyes as he stared blankly, “Um…sorry Xiang Li, next time I will buy you something nice.”

Xiang Li giggled softly, “It is alright, Big Brother. I don’t need anything.”

I only need you, Big Brother…

Ji Yuan began to smile weakly, “Haha. Rubbish Xiang Li. Of course you need something. I will promise you that your Big Brother will get you something next time. This is a promise.”

He began to rub his chin, “Hmm, easy come, easy go.”

As he exited the hall, he was in jovial mood again; it was because he had nothing to lose and had even gained an immortal-step divine sword for his beloved Qianxue.

He was not bothered by the worldly possessions as he could not bring it to the Immortal Realm in the future. The only things that a cultivator can bring to the Immortal Realm are their empty spatial rings and their divine swords.

“Big Brother, can I say something to you? Promise me that you will stay calm, alright?” Xiang Li giggled softly.

Ji Yuan laughed jovially, “I am the calmness person in the Fire Faction at the moment. Haha. Nothing can rock my heart.”

Xiang Li chuckled, “That’s good, Big Brother. Don’t forget that you’ve just offered to pay for the tabs in the great hall for everyone.”

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

He had completely forgotten about this…

Xiang Li praised him, “Big Brother, you’re generous indeed.”

Ji Yuan began to smile bitterly. “I think our next task now is to check the interest owed for the tabs…”

“I completely agree with Big Brother!” Xiang Li giggled.

Ji Yuan laughed, “Thanks Xiang Li! You’re indeed my bosom friend. Haha.”

But Ji Yuan really did not mind at all as he walked away in high spirits again. It was because he had always been a carefree cultivator.

“It looks like I’ve got to loot from my cultivators again…”

“Maybe they are paupers too.” Xiang Li giggled.

“Don’t curse me Xiang Li.” Ji Yuan frowned. “Or I will kick you away.”

But Xiang Li continued to giggle nevertheless. She is really enjoying every moment of her time with Ji Yuan and it had been so fun so far with Ji Yuan.

Xiang Li quietly muttered silently, “Big Brother, I love you…”
