Chapter 1079 Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian'Er (1)

The banquet was finally over.

Ji Yuan was now alone with Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian'Er in another guest hall.

Ding Xiaoxiao was taken to a guest room that had been specially prepared for her while Ji Yuan was taken to the guest hall first.

It was because Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian'Er had not talked to him in person for quite some time and they were curious to know what he had been doing in the Nightfall Heights all this while until the events that led to the descent of the Immortal Heavenly Wrath.

Xuan Qiaoqiao looked a little upset, "I was so worried about you for the past 3 days and today I finally know that you had entered our Sanctuary of the Forbidden. You are really great."

For the past 3 days she had been holding onto the Heart Link Necklace and had been looking for Ji Yuan; she had even feared that the worst had happened to him. 

She tried to confront the Cardinal Harpy and to her horror, she had also found her to be missing as well. 

Ji Yuan laughed weakly as he ignored her cold remarks, "Well, I was working very hard to find the moles for you. You should thank me instead."

That was not exactly true; he had been too busy banging Li Yifen and finding the moles were actually quite by accident.

But he could not tell them that he had been seduced by Li Yifen and it would be awkward to his face. 

Ji Yuan did not care for his reputation but he cared about his face; how could he be seduced by anyone? It should be the other way instead! 

He had actually no idea where to start his investigation after he had realized how complex and intricate the political connections in the Nightfall Heights were.

But it was too late for any regrets for him.

Right now, he was staring at Juan Xian'Er and he had been doing so since the beginning; it was because she had reminded him of his Jiajia and there were certain resembles between them. 

Actually, Ji Yuan had only been flirting with Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian'Er since the beginning, even he had shown interest in them but it was still flirting too; they are good maidens and Ji Yuan did not really want to hurt them when he had departed from their realm. 

They were not the same as exactly Li Yifen as Li Yifen was a widow and she was only seducing Ji Yuan to make him into her lover as she was too lonely.

This did not mean that the Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen is a loose maiden; she has only picked Ji Yuan because of his talents in music and she did not want such a talent to perish too early. Moreover, Ji Yuan also has a beautiful look to back him up. 

Juan Xian'Er was also curious to know why Ji Yuan was inside the Sanctuary of the Forbidden, "Do you know that it is forbidden for anyone other than Cardinals to enter that place?"

Ji Yuan laughed weakly, "I know."

"And yet, you had entered with the Cardinal Harpy and the Cardinal Confidant?" Juan Xian'Er was astonished. "How did you even persuade them to allow you to use their golden signet rings to allow you in that place?"

"They know that you are that Fake Great Patriarch Sword Saint already?" Xuan Qiaoqiao was also asking him curiously.

Naturally Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng had only learnt that Ji Yuan was the fake Great Patriarch Sword Saint much later.

And without Xiang Li and Anyang to rebuke him, Ji Yuan was bold to make up his stories to save his awkward face.

He must not tell these 2 maidens that he got seduced by Li Yifen and got tempted by her to enter the Shrine of the True Devil God simply because of his curiosity.

Ji Yuan solemnly said as he rolled his golden eyes sheepishly, "Why did I have to enter the Sanctuary of the Forbidden…"

He did not expect for his false identity as the Great Patriarch Great Saint to be discovered and therefore, he had not really thought of an excuse first. 

Also, he was not even trying to be any Great Patriarch Great Saint too but it was Xuan Qiaoqiao that had hinted for him to take this identity when he was being confronted by the Cardinals. 

So he asked instead, "I don't understand. I've entered the Sanctuary of the Forbidden but why is that the Cardinal Patriarch and the others seem like they are not bothered by it?"

Xuan Qiaoqiao giggled softly, "That is because by then they have already known that you are that masked man and a 9th realm half-immortal that can tank the Immortal Heavenly Wrath. Do you think that they will offend such a powerful half-immortal cultivator like you, even if you are a human?"

She then added with another chuckle, "Moreover, you had saved us from the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim too. Even though what you did is not allowed but in the face of absolute power, they are quite flexible to bend their principles."

Juan Xian'Er was also smiling, "If they are not so flexible, why do you think they will try to pacify the Abyssal King Gong Magog instead?"

Ji Yuan nodded and smiled bitterly; this is the same as in the Celestial Realm too. The powerful is the law while the weak has to obey the law.

Xuan Qiaoqiao agreed with Juan Xian'Er, "And moreover, without your help, we will be screwed by the Immortal Abyssal Gong Nephilim in the last battle. They are actually quite happy that you are on my side and they can't wait to butter you up. This included Millenium Jun Feitian as well."

Ji Yuan laughed weakly, "Let's hope that I can live up to all your expectations. Hahaha…"

Juan Xian'Er asked curiously, "That Maiden Ding Xiaoxiao that is with you, she looks really quite formidable and mysterious. Is she stronger than you or weaker than you?"

"Yeah?" Xuan Qiaoqiao was also looking quite curious. "You are now a 9th realm half-immortal cultivator now. You should be very strong, right? And you even have a true divinity sword. I remember that you seemed to fear her the last time?"

In front of Juan Xian'Er, Ji Yuan is the alpha of the alphas.

"I don't fear her," Ji Yuan frowned. "I am stronger than her. In fact, she has been pestering me to… erm… teach her one or two tricks on how to improve her profound sword art."

Juan Xian'Er nodded slowly, "I see now."

Xuan Qiaoqiao however had a dubious look as she noticed that in front of Ding Xiaoxiao, Ji Yuan was like a little cat and he was not talkative at all.

But she could not resist asking Ji Yuan, "But it seems that she is here to look for you instead."

Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "She saw the Immortal Heavenly Wrath, that's why. She doesn't know that I am the one that triggered it."

Xuan Qiaoqiao pointed out, "But she isn't leaving after that. She is staying because of you."

Ji Yuan weakly said, "Maybe she just wants to see my miseries…"

"Huh?" Juan Xian'Er was startled, "Why did you just say? I don't think so."

Ji Yuan asked her, "You are not her. Why do you think this isn't the case?"

Juan Xian'Er smiled, "Even though she doesn't seem too interested in the banquet earlier but there were quite few times that I had caught her looking in your way. You must be feeling quite delighted that such a beautiful maiden is interested in you."

Ji Yuan: …

She is only interested to fight me…

But he couldn't tell Juan Xian'Er and Xuan Qiaoqiao that Ding Xiaoxiao was not exactly a friend of his and they had an agreement to fight in the Celestial Realm.

He did not want to tell them that Ding Xiaoxiao was actually his opponent or else they would be freaked out.

Xuan Qiaoqiao was suddenly solemn as she said tenderly to Ji Yuan, "Ji Yuan, thank you so much. You have really helped me so much. The other Cardinals are no longer forcing me to marry that ugly abyssal king anymore. You have no idea how happy I am and it is all thanks to you."

Juan Xian'Er was also smiling pleasantly, "I am so happy for my sister here too."

Ji Yuan laughed softly, "This is nothing at all."

Xuan Qiaoqiao looked at Ji Yuan tenderly, "You did this all for me…"

Ji Yuan was looking quite startled when Xuan Qiaoqiao was suddenly looking so tenderly at him. "It is nothing at all…"

She then gave Ji Yuan a small cup of a really fragrance looking wine and smiled to him, "Let Qiaoqiao toasts you for this great help."

Ji Yuan laughed as he finished the wine in a single gulp, "This is really a good wine! If you don't mind, I can have more. Haha…" 

Xuan Qiaoqiao said slowly to him, "Ji Yuan, do you still remember that you have promised to take me as your consort?"

Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "Erm… yes?"

Xuan Qiaoqiao smiled coolly all of a sudden as she had suddenly stabbed Ji Yuan on his chest with her pointed fingers.

Ji Yuan was suddenly in a daze and he was feeling quite shocked after being attacked, "What did you just do to me?"

Xuan Qiaoqiao tenderly said, "I've just added a little profound drug to your wine when I was toasting you earlier. Even though you may be a 9th realm half-immortal cultivator but at your current weaken state, I am afraid that it is too a little late for you to plunge it now."

She then took a look at Juan Xian'Er who was looking quite apologetic and she was saying softly, "Savior Ji Yuan, please forgive the two of us." 

Ji Yuan was shocked as he tried to stand up but he was feeling too weak and dazed.

He had been so careless and he had let his guard down as he had never thought that Xuan Qiaoqiao would actually try to harm him! 

This was an event that caught him by surprise.

Before he had closed his eyes, he saw that Xuan Qiaoqiao and Juan Xian'Er had slipped their exquisite robes down to the ground…
