The Romantic Cultivator

Chapter 396 My New Master (2)



Qiu Xiuyu was still in shock after Ji Yuan had displayed perfectly the True Origin Celestial Swordplay and in a much shorter time than she was capable of.

She took Ji Yuan to a small shrine within her hut compound and said to Ji Yuan, “This is the shrine of your Grand Patriarch. I am his core protégé as well as the 132th lineage of the Green Abode. You will be the 133th lineage of the Green Abode. You ought to bow three times in front of our Grand Patriarch to show your proper respect for him and seek his blessings in the heavens.”

Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, “I have to bow 3 times? Maybe he is the one that should seek my blessings instead.”

“What did you just say?” Qiu Xiuyu thought that she had heard something but she was not paying attention.

Ji Yuan laughed weakly, “Nothing. Nothing at all.”

Qiu Xiuyu took three joss sticks for him. “This is the burnt offerings for your Grand Patriarch Li Ye. After you have paid your respect for him, you ought to bow down three times in front of him. Only then will our master-disciple relationship be properly established.”

Ji Yuan continued to smile bitterly; he has no issue bowing in front of his new beautiful master but to Li Ye…it is unthinkable. He is now thinking of beating up Li Ye for no apparent reason now…𝐧𝑜𝚟𝑬𝓁𝐍𝔢xt.𝒸𝞸𝑚

Fairy Anyang could see the reluctance in his heart so she reminded him, “Remember this is a tempering of your heart. There are no superior celestials or inferior celestials. Everyone is born equal.”

Fairy Anyang’s words jolted Ji Yuan as he muttered a quick thanks.

Very quickly he prostrated in front of the portrait of Li Ye and he was soon prostrating in front of Qiu Xiuyu as he said, “My respects to Master Qiu.”

There was a light flush on Qiu Xiuyu as Ji Yuan bowed himself in front of her.

She tried very hard to contain her excitement as she said to Ji Yuan, “From today onward, you will be my core protégé. Do you know that you are my first core protégé?”

Ji Yuan shook his head.

Qiu Xiuyu continued as she smiled, “I am sometimes known as Fairy Xiuyu in the True Origin Celestial Sect but I am also holding the title of Elder of the Inner Court. My cultivation realm is at the Crisis Realm. In order to transcend to be a celestial, we have to overcome the seven celestial divinities of Genesis, Enlighten, Emotion, Transverse, Seventh Sense, Crisis and Ascend in order to transcend to the Heavens.”

Ji Yuan could not make any sense to the mortal cultivation realms but he knew that she can be translated into a 4th realm Immortal Celestial in the Celestial Realm.

He chuckled weakly, “Master, have you forgotten that I’ve no spiritual roots?”

Qiu Xiuyu: …

Qiu Xiuyu: …

Qiu Xiuyu: …

Qiu Xiuyu blinked her eyes slowly before she said quietly, “You’re lying. Earlier I can see your profound strength that is being displayed and you aren’t weak.”

She was not lying. In fact, she could sense that Ji Yuan’s profound strength far exceeded her.

Ji Yuan laughed, “Maybe it is only because my master is such a good teacher that I am able to muster my profound strength even though I do not have any spiritual roots.”

Qiu Xiuyu slowly said, “Show me your palm.”

Ji Yuan did as he was told and displayed his palm out for her to examine.

Qiu Xiuyu gasped softly as she began to examine Ji Yuan’s palm and she could feel that he had an unusual strong profound energies coursing within him.

For a moment, she was confused and perplexed at the same time; the testing stone will be wrong? He does have spirit roots and he can obviously cultivate…

She had used the old fashion method to examine Ji Yuan’s pulse instead in order to be sure.

She was soon gasping again; it was because Ji Yuan indeed has profound energies within his inner cultivation sea but it was a different type from hers. In fact, she could feel that this profound energies actually have a familiar tingling.

She gasped again; My Master Li Ye has the same profound energies before he had ascended to the Celestial Realm…how did this young man come to possess the same type of golden profound energies as my master?

All of a sudden she was gasping again because Ji Yuan was holding onto her hands and was rubbing at the same time.

She shook Ji Yuan off as she quickly withdrew her hands from him, “What are you doing?!”

Ji Yuan grinned, “My beautiful master, your hands are so silky and I can’t help myself.”

Qiu Xiuyu said angrily, “How dare you be respectful to me! Do you know that I am your master?”

Ji Yuan asked, “Master, you like Grand Patriarch Li Ye, do you?”

Qiu Xiuyu had a sudden flush, “Nonsense! How can you spurt rubbish!”

But Ji Yuan insisted, “The way you look at the portrait of Grand Patriarch is very much different when you are looking at the rest of us. I know that Master must have loved Grand Patriarch a lot.”

p Qiu Xiuyu was taken aback by Ji Yuan’s boldness and she was suddenly speechless with her own emotions.

After a while, she said melancholy. “Since you are my protégé, I ought to be honest with you.”

Slowly she turned her back on Ji Yuan to stare blankly at the portrait of Li Ye before saying with woeful melancholy. “Yes, I really like our Grand Patriarch but sadly mine is an unrequited love. Moreover he is my master so I dare not tell him that I like him.”

Ji Yuan said, “Why don’t you tell him that you like him?”

Qiu Xiuyu sighed, “Actually I did hint to him many times but he always gives me a lecture that he is trying to cultivate the way and he has no interest in the worldly emotions. He has always told me that his destiny is in the Celestial Realm and one day he would find a maiden there to be his cultivation partner.”

Ji Yuan began to smile bitterly as he thought; well, he got rejected by Hua Baiyue and Hua Wuwu…but finally he manages to find a love interest in Nangong Xiu now but if I tell you this, I am afraid of breaking your heart.

Qiu Xiuyu said quietly, “Therefore I can only cultivate hard so that one day I may be able to join him in the Celestial Realm. Hopefully he still remembers me.”

Ji Yuan said, “If I were Grand Patriarch, I will surely not let such a beautiful maiden go.”

“But you are not him.” Qiu Xiuyu hummed. “Grand Patriarch is the most heroic man that I’ve ever known. As for you, you have loose morals. You ought to cultivate the way and to temper your heart or else you will never be able to advance in your cultivation.”

Ji Yuan muttered weakly, “I have loose morals? I think Li Ye has a more loose morals than I…also, I do not need to cultivate anymore…”

“What did you just say?” Qiu Xiuyu interrupted Ji Yuan as she could not hear what he was muttering.

Ji Yuan chuckled, “I am just saying if a man is not bad, the maiden won’t like him.”

Qiu Xiuyu was taken aback and there was a fluster in her countenance as she started to rebuke Ji Yuan, “Ji Yuan, I am really disappointed in you. Do you believe that I will expulse you from my sight as well as from the True Origin Celestial Sect?”

Ji Yuan grinned, “But master, you are really very beautiful. More beautiful than most of the celestial maidens in the Celestial Realm. I am a man so I can tell you that you are very desirable.”

“You are too outrageous!” Qiu Xiuyu raised her voice and at the same time she had also raised her hand to slap Ji Yuan.

But as she tried to slap Ji Yuan, she missed him and had fallen into his solid embrace.

All of a sudden she could feel Ji Yuan’s hands on her bosoms and her butt.

She was so startled and shocked that she pushed him away quickly. “What are you doing?!”

She was so shock that she burst into tears as she quickly stormed out of the room.

Ji Yuan was left to look at his fingers, still remembering his master’s soft ample body.

He said weakly, “She must still be a chaste maiden. Li Ye, you’re so lucky.”

Xiang Li asked him, “Big Brother, so you are going to bang your master?”

Ji Yuan frowned as he said firmly, “I got too carried away. I should apologize to her instead. Xiang Li, we shouldn’t have any designs on her, not ever.”

Xiang Li asked curiously, “Why?”

Ji Yuan replied, “She is too innocent. Moreover she is my Brother Li Ye’s future consort. You don’t green your own brothers.”

Xiang Li pondered for a while before she giggled, “If you bang her before she becomes your Brother Li Ye’s consort then this won’t be considered as greening your own brothers, right?”

Ji Yuan displayed an ugly look as he said exasperatingly, “Xiang Li, you really need some moral education. This is still wrong…”

“The pot calling the kettle black.” Fairy Anyang could not resist giggling. “Just now who is rubbing your hands all over your master’s body.”

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan muttered weakly, “Don’t remind me of this. You think that my master will expulse me on my first day?”

Fairy Anyang nodded with a grin, “Most probably. I can’t believe that you are so outrageous. You’re going to fail this trial, 100%.”

Ji Yuan face-palmed himself, “Why did I have to touch her…”

Xiang Li interrupted curiously, “Big Brother, I’ve a question. Xiang Li really does not understand!”

Ji Yuan asked, “What is it?”

Xiang Li asked, “You say you can’t green your own brothers but why did you fondle her just now?”

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

This is such a good question…

Ji Yuan replied righteously, “I didn’t. She fell into my embrace just now.”

Fairy Anyang chuckled, “Someone dodges her slap and purposely trips her into falling into his embrace. You can trick Xiang Li but not me.”

Ji Yuan laughed weakly, “Haha…actually it is a pure accident just now and not on purpose…”
